Since accumulate_steal_time is now only called in record_steal_time, it
doesn't quite make sense to put the delta calculation in a separate
function. The function could be called thousands of times before guest
enables the steal time MSR (though the compiler may optimize out this
function call). And after it's enabled, the MSR enable bit is tested twice
every time. Removing the accumulate_steal_time function also avoids the
necessity of having the accum_steal field.

Windows lets applications choose the frequency of the timer tick,
and in Windows 10 the maximum rate was changed from 1024 Hz to
2048 Hz. Unfortunately, because of the way the Windows API
works, most applications who need a higher rate than the default
64 Hz will just do
timeGetDevCaps(&tc, sizeof(tc));
timeBeginPeriod(tc.wPeriodMin);
and pick the maximum rate. This causes very high CPU usage when
playing media or games on Windows 10, even if the guest does not
actually use the CPU very much, because the frequent timer tick
causes halt_poll_ns to kick in.
There is no really good solution, especially because Microsoft
could sooner or later bump the limit to 4096 Hz, but for now
the best we can do is lower a bit the upper limit for
halt_poll_ns. :-(

Per Hyper-V specification (and as required by Hyper-V-aware guests),
SynIC provides 4 per-vCPU timers. Each timer is programmed via a pair
of MSRs, and signals expiration by delivering a special format message
to the configured SynIC message slot and triggering the corresponding
synthetic interrupt.
Note: as implemented by this patch, all periodic timers are "lazy"
(i.e. if the vCPU wasn't scheduled for more than the timer period the
timer events are lost), regardless of the corresponding configuration
MSR. If deemed necessary, the "catch up" mode (the timer period is
shortened until the timer catches up) will be implemented later.

SynIC (synthetic interrupt controller) is a lapic extension,
which is controlled via MSRs and maintains for each vCPU
- 16 synthetic interrupt "lines" (SINT's); each can be configured to
trigger a specific interrupt vector optionally with auto-EOI
semantics
- a message page in the guest memory with 16 256-byte per-SINT message
slots
- an event flag page in the guest memory with 16 2048-bit per-SINT
event flag areas
The host triggers a SINT whenever it delivers a new message to the
corresponding slot or flips an event flag bit in the corresponding area.
The guest informs the host that it can try delivering a message by
explicitly asserting EOI in lapic or writing to End-Of-Message (EOM)
MSR.
The userspace (qemu) triggers interrupts and receives EOM notifications
via irqfd with resampler; for that, a GSI is allocated for each
configured SINT, and irq_routing api is extended to support GSI-SINT
mapping.
Changes v4:
* added activation of SynIC by vcpu KVM_ENABLE_CAP

The decision on whether to use hardware APIC virtualization used to be
taken globally, based on the availability of the feature in the CPU
and the value of a module parameter.
However, under certain circumstances we want to control it on per-vcpu
basis. In particular, when the userspace activates HyperV synthetic
interrupt controller (SynIC), APICv has to be disabled as it's
incompatible with SynIC auto-EOI behavior.
To achieve that, introduce 'apicv_active' flag on struct
kvm_vcpu_arch, and kvm_vcpu_deactivate_apicv() function to turn APICv
off. The flag is initialized based on the module parameter and CPU
capability, and consulted whenever an APICv-specific action is
performed.

In order to enable userspace PIC support, the userspace PIC needs to
be able to inject local interrupts even when the APICs are in the
kernel.
KVM_INTERRUPT now supports sending local interrupts to an APIC when
APICs are in the kernel.
The ready_for_interrupt_request flag is now only set when the CPU/APIC
will immediately accept and inject an interrupt (i.e. APIC has not
masked the PIC).
When the PIC wishes to initiate an INTA cycle with, say, CPU0, it
kicks CPU0 out of the guest, and renedezvous with CPU0 once it arrives
in userspace.
When the CPU/APIC unmasks the PIC, a KVM_EXIT_IRQ_WINDOW_OPEN is
triggered, so that userspace has a chance to inject a PIC interrupt
if it had been pending.
Overall, this design can lead to a small number of spurious userspace
renedezvous. In particular, whenever the PIC transistions from low to
high while it is masked and whenever the PIC becomes unmasked while
it is low.
Note: this does not buffer more than one local interrupt in the
kernel, so the VMM needs to enter the guest in order to complete
interrupt injection before injecting an additional interrupt.
Compiles for x86.
Can pass the KVM Unit Tests.

In order to support a userspace IOAPIC interacting with an in kernel
APIC, the EOI exit bitmaps need to be configurable.
If the IOAPIC is in userspace (i.e. the irqchip has been split), the
EOI exit bitmaps will be set whenever the GSI Routes are configured.
In particular, for the low MSI routes are reservable for userspace
IOAPICs. For these MSI routes, the EOI Exit bit corresponding to the
destination vector of the route will be set for the destination VCPU.
The intention is for the userspace IOAPICs to use the reservable MSI
routes to inject interrupts into the guest.
This is a slight abuse of the notion of an MSI Route, given that MSIs
classically bypass the IOAPIC. It might be worthwhile to add an
additional route type to improve clarity.

We can reuse the algorithm that computes the EOI exit bitmap to figure
out which vectors are handled by the IOAPIC. The only difference
between the two is for edge-triggered interrupts other than IRQ8
that have no notifiers active; however, the IOAPIC does not have to
do anything special for these interrupts anyway.
This again limits the interactions between the IOAPIC and the LAPIC,
making it easier to move the former to userspace.

10+20+40+80+160+320+480 = 1110 microseconds out of every

is consuming about 30% more CPU than it would use without

Dirty logging tracks sptes in 4k granularity, meaning that large sptes
have to be split. If live migration is successful, the guest in the
source machine will be destroyed and large sptes will be created in the
destination. However, the guest continues to run in the source machine
(for example if live migration fails), small sptes will remain around
and cause bad performance.
This patch introduce lazy collapsing of small sptes into large sptes.
The rmap will be scanned in ioctl context when dirty logging is stopped,
dropping those sptes which can be collapsed into a single large-page spte.
Later page faults will create the large-page sptes.

This patch introduces a new module parameter for the KVM module; when it
is present, KVM attempts a bit of polling on every HLT before scheduling
itself out via kvm_vcpu_block.
This parameter helps a lot for latency-bound workloads---in particular
I tested it with O_DSYNC writes with a battery-backed disk in the host.
In this case, writes are fast (because the data doesn't have to go all
the way to the platters) but they cannot be merged by either the host or
the guest. KVM's performance here is usually around 30% of bare metal,
or 50% if you use cache=directsync or cache=writethrough (these
parameters avoid that the guest sends pointless flush requests, and
at the same time they are not slow because of the battery-backed cache).
The bad performance happens because on every halt the host CPU decides
to halt itself too. When the interrupt comes, the vCPU thread is then
migrated to a new physical CPU, and in general the latency is horrible
because the vCPU thread has to be scheduled back in.
With this patch performance reaches 60-65% of bare metal and, more
important, 99% of what you get if you use idle=poll in the guest. This
means that the tunable gets rid of this particular bottleneck, and more
work can be done to improve performance in the kernel or QEMU.
Of course there is some price to pay; every time an otherwise idle vCPUs
is interrupted by an interrupt, it will poll unnecessarily and thus
impose a little load on the host. The above results were obtained with
a mostly random value of the parameter (500000), and the load was around
1.5-2.5% CPU usage on one of the host's core for each idle guest vCPU.
The patch also adds a new stat, /sys/kernel/debug/kvm/halt_successful_poll,
that can be used to tune the parameter. It counts how many HLT
instructions received an interrupt during the polling period; each
successful poll avoids that Linux schedules the VCPU thread out and back
in, and may also avoid a likely trip to C1 and back for the physical CPU.
While the VM is idle, a Linux 4 VCPU VM halts around 10 times per second.
Of these halts, almost all are failed polls. During the benchmark,
instead, basically all halts end within the polling period, except a more
or less constant stream of 50 per second coming from vCPUs that are not
running the benchmark. The wasted time is thus very low. Things may
be slightly different for Windows VMs, which have a ~10 ms timer tick.
The effect is also visible on Marcelo's recently-introduced latency
test for the TSC deadline timer. Though of course a non-RT kernel has
awful latency bounds, the latency of the timer is around 8000-10000 clock
cycles compared to 20000-120000 without setting halt_poll_ns. For the TSC
deadline timer, thus, the effect is both a smaller average latency and
a smaller variance.

This patch adds new mmu layer functions to clear/set D-bit for memory slot, and
to write protect superpages for memory slot.
In case of PML, CPU logs the dirty GPA automatically to PML buffer when CPU
updates D-bit from 0 to 1, therefore we don't have to write protect 4K pages,
instead, we only need to clear D-bit in order to log that GPA.
For superpages, we still write protect it and let page fault code to handle
dirty page logging, as we still need to split superpage to 4K pages in PML.
As PML is always enabled during guest's lifetime, to eliminate unnecessary PML
GPA logging, we set D-bit manually for the slot with dirty logging disabled.

When emulating an instruction that reads the destination memory operand (i.e.,
instructions without the Mov flag in the emulator), the operand is first read.
If a page-fault is detected in this phase, the error-code which would be
delivered to the VM does not indicate that the access that caused the exception
is a write one. This does not conform with real hardware, and may cause the VM
to enter the page-fault handler twice for no reason (once for read, once for
write).

If DR4/5 is accessed when it is unavailable (since CR4.DE is set), then #UD
should be generated even if CPL>0. This is according to Intel SDM Table 6-2:
"Priority Among Simultaneous Exceptions and Interrupts".
Note, that this may happen on the first DR access, even if the host does not
sets debug breakpoints. Obviously, it occurs when the host debugs the guest.
This patch moves the DR4/5 checks from __kvm_set_dr/_kvm_get_dr to handle_dr.
The emulator already checks DR4/5 availability in check_dr_read. Nested
virutalization related calls to kvm_set_dr/kvm_get_dr would not like to inject
exceptions to the guest.
As for SVM, the patch follows the previous logic as much as possible. Anyhow,
it appears the DR interception code might be buggy - even if the DR access
may cause an exception, the instruction is skipped.

KVM does not deliver x2APIC broadcast messages with physical mode. Intel SDM
(10.12.9 ICR Operation in x2APIC Mode) states: "A destination ID value of
FFFF_FFFFH is used for broadcast of interrupts in both logical destination and
physical destination modes."
In addition, the local-apic enables cluster mode broadcast. As Intel SDM
10.6.2.2 says: "Broadcast to all local APICs is achieved by setting all
destination bits to one." This patch enables cluster mode broadcast.
The fix tries to combine broadcast in different modes through a unified code.
One rare case occurs when the source of IPI has its APIC disabled. In such
case, the source can still issue IPIs, but since the source is not obliged to
have the same LAPIC mode as the enabled ones, we cannot rely on it.
Since it is a rare case, it is unoptimized and done on the slow-path.

Upon WRMSR, the CPU should inject #GP if a non-canonical value (address) is
written to certain MSRs. The behavior is "almost" identical for AMD and Intel
(ignoring MSRs that are not implemented in either architecture since they would
anyhow #GP). However, IA32_SYSENTER_ESP and IA32_SYSENTER_EIP cause #GP if
non-canonical address is written on Intel but not on AMD (which ignores the top
32-bits).
Accordingly, this patch injects a #GP on the MSRs which behave identically on
Intel and AMD. To eliminate the differences between the architecutres, the
value which is written to IA32_SYSENTER_ESP and IA32_SYSENTER_EIP is turned to
canonical value before writing instead of injecting a #GP.
Some references from Intel and AMD manuals:
According to Intel SDM description of WRMSR instruction #GP is expected on
WRMSR "If the source register contains a non-canonical address and ECX
specifies one of the following MSRs: IA32_DS_AREA, IA32_FS_BASE, IA32_GS_BASE,
IA32_KERNEL_GS_BASE, IA32_LSTAR, IA32_SYSENTER_EIP, IA32_SYSENTER_ESP."
According to AMD manual instruction manual:
LSTAR/CSTAR (SYSCALL): "The WRMSR instruction loads the target RIP into the
LSTAR and CSTAR registers. If an RIP written by WRMSR is not in canonical
form, a general-protection exception (#GP) occurs."
IA32_GS_BASE and IA32_FS_BASE (WRFSBASE/WRGSBASE): "The address written to the
base field must be in canonical form or a #GP fault will occur."
IA32_KERNEL_GS_BASE (SWAPGS): "The address stored in the KernelGSbase MSR must
be in canonical form."

1. We were calling clear_flush_young_notify in unmap_one, but we are
within an mmu notifier invalidate range scope. The spte exists no more
(due to range_start) and the accessed bit info has already been
propagated (due to kvm_pfn_set_accessed). Simply call
clear_flush_young.
2. We clear_flush_young on a primary MMU PMD, but this may be mapped
as a collection of PTEs by the secondary MMU (e.g. during log-dirty).
This required expanding the interface of the clear_flush_young mmu
notifier, so a lot of code has been trivially touched.
3. In the absence of shadow_accessed_mask (e.g. EPT A bit), we emulate
the access bit by blowing the spte. This requires proper synchronizing
with MMU notifier consumers, like every other removal of spte's does.

kvm_arch->ept_identity_pagetable holds the ept identity pagetable page. But
it is never used to refer to the page at all.
In vcpu initialization, it indicates two things:
1. indicates if ept page is allocated
2. indicates if a memory slot for identity page is initialized
Actually, kvm_arch->ept_identity_pagetable_done is enough to tell if the ept
identity pagetable is initialized. So we can remove ept_identity_pagetable.
NOTE: In the original code, ept identity pagetable page is pinned in memroy.
As a result, it cannot be migrated/hot-removed. After this patch, since
kvm_arch->ept_identity_pagetable is removed, ept identity pagetable page
is no longer pinned in memory. And it can be migrated/hot-removed.

The following events can lead to an incorrect KVM_EXIT_MMIO bubbling
up to userspace:
(1) Guest accesses gpa X without a memory slot. The gfn is cached in
struct kvm_vcpu_arch (mmio_gfn). On Intel EPT-enabled hosts, KVM sets
the SPTE write-execute-noread so that future accesses cause
EPT_MISCONFIGs.
(2) Host userspace creates a memory slot via KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION
covering the page just accessed.
(3) Guest attempts to read or write to gpa X again. On Intel, this
generates an EPT_MISCONFIG. The memory slot generation number that
was incremented in (2) would normally take care of this but we fast
path mmio faults through quickly_check_mmio_pf(), which only checks
the per-vcpu mmio cache. Since we hit the cache, KVM passes a
KVM_EXIT_MMIO up to userspace.
This patch fixes the issue by using the memslot generation number
to validate the mmio cache.

For the next patch we will need to know the full state of the
interrupt shadow; we will then set KVM_REQ_EVENT when one bit
is cleared.
However, right now get_interrupt_shadow only returns the one
corresponding to the emulated instruction, or an unconditional
0 if the emulated instruction does not have an interrupt shadow.
This is confusing and does not allow us to check for cleared
bits as mentioned above.
Clean the callback up, and modify toggle_interruptibility to
match the comment above the call. As a small result, the
call to set_interrupt_shadow will be skipped in the common
case where int_shadow == 0 && mask == 0.

The fix is to count each vCPU only once when matched, so that
nr_vcpus_matched_tsc holds the size of the matched set. This is
achieved by reusing generation counters. Every vCPU with
this_tsc_generation == cur_tsc_generation is in the matched set. The
match set is cleared by setting cur_tsc_generation to a value which no
other vCPU is set to (by incrementing it).
I needed to bump up the counter size form u8 to u64 to ensure it never
overflows. Otherwise in cases TSC is not written the same number of
times on each vCPU the counter could overflow and incorrectly indicate
some vCPUs as being in the matched set. This scenario seems unlikely
but I'm not sure if it can be disregarded.

KVM does not really do much with the PAT, so this went unnoticed for a
long time. It is exposed however if you try to do rdmsr on the PAT
register.

Recent Intel CPUs have 10 variable range MTRRs. Since operating systems
sometime make assumptions on CPUs while they ignore capability MSRs, it is
better for KVM to be consistent with recent CPUs. Reporting more MTRRs than
actually supported has no functional implications.

The rdpmc emulation checks that the counter (ECX) is not higher than 2, without
taking into considerations bits 30:31 role (e.g., bit 30 marks whether the
counter is fixed). The fix uses the pmu information for checking the validity
of the pmu counter.

CS.RPL is not equal to the CPL in the few instructions between
setting CR0.PE and reloading CS. And CS.DPL is also not equal
to the CPL for conforming code segments.
However, SS.DPL *is* always equal to the CPL except for the weird
case of SYSRET on AMD processors, which sets SS.DPL=SS.RPL from the
value in the STAR MSR, but force CPL=3 (Intel instead forces
SS.DPL=SS.RPL=CPL=3).
So this patch:
- modifies SVM to update the CPL from SS.DPL rather than CS.RPL;
the above case with SYSRET is not broken further, and the way
to fix it would be to pass the CPL to userspace and back
- modifies VMX to always return the CPL from SS.DPL (except
forcing it to 0 if we are emulating real mode via vm86 mode;
in vm86 mode all DPLs have to be 3, but real mode does allow
privileged instructions). It also removes the CPL cache,
which becomes a duplicate of the SS access rights cache.
This fixes doing KVM_IOCTL_SET_SREGS exactly after setting
CR0.PE=1 but before CS has been reloaded.

According to Intel specifications, PAE and non-PAE does not have any reserved
bits. In long-mode, regardless to PCIDE, only the high bits (above the
physical address) are reserved.

When not running in guest-debug mode, the guest controls the debug
registers and having to take an exit for each DR access is a waste
of time. If the guest gets into a state where each context switch
causes DR to be saved and restored, this can take away as much as 40%
of the execution time from the guest.
After this patch, VMX- and SVM-specific code can set a flag in
switch_db_regs, telling vcpu_enter_guest that on the next exit the debug
registers might be dirty and need to be reloaded (syncing will be taken
care of by a new callback in kvm_x86_ops). This flag can be set on the
first access to a debug registers, so that multiple accesses to the
debug registers only cause one vmexit.
Note that since the guest will be able to read debug registers and
enable breakpoints in DR7, we need to ensure that they are synchronized
on entry to the guest---including DR6 that was not synced before.

It's no longer possible to enter enable_irq_window in guest mode when
L1 intercepts external interrupts and we are entering L2. This is now
caught in vcpu_enter_guest. So we can remove the check from the VMX
version of enable_irq_window, thus the need to return an error code from
both enable_irq_window and enable_nmi_window.

Move the check for leaving L2 on pending and intercepted IRQs or NMIs
from the *_allowed handler into a dedicated callback. Invoke this
callback at the relevant points before KVM checks if IRQs/NMIs can be
injected. The callback has the task to switch from L2 to L1 if needed
and inject the proper vmexit events.
The rework fixes L2 wakeups from HLT and provides the foundation for
preemption timer emulation.

commit 0061d53daf introduced a mechanism to execute a global clock
update for a vm. We can apply this periodically in order to propagate
host NTP corrections. Also, if all vcpus of a vm are pinned, then
without an additional trigger, no guest NTP corrections can propagate
either, as the current trigger is only vcpu cpu migration.

When we update a vcpu's local clock it may pick up an NTP correction.
We can't wait an indeterminate amount of time for other vcpus to pick
up that correction, so commit 0061d53daf introduced a global clock
update. However, we can't request a global clock update on every vcpu
load either (which is what happens if the tsc is marked as unstable).
The solution is to rate-limit the global clock updates. Marcelo
calculated that we should delay the global clock updates no more
than 0.1s as follows:
Assume an NTP correction c is applied to one vcpu, but not the other,
then in n seconds the delta of the vcpu system_timestamps will be
c * n. If we assume a correction of 500ppm (worst-case), then the two
vcpus will diverge 50us in 0.1s, which is a considerable amount.
