512d5649e8 KVM: VMX: Fix %ds/%es clobber
The vmx exit code unconditionally restores %ds and %es to __USER_DS.  This
can override the user's values, since %ds and %es are not saved and restored
in x86_64 syscalls.  In practice, this isn't dangerous since nobody uses
segment registers in long mode, least of all programs that use KVM.

2225fd5604 KVM: VMX: Fix kvm_set_shared_msr() called in preemptible context
kvm_set_shared_msr() may not be called in preemptible context,
but vmx_set_msr() does so:

  BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: qemu-kvm/22713
  caller is kvm_set_shared_msr+0x32/0xa0 [kvm]

   ...

Making kvm_set_shared_msr() work in preemptible is cleaner, but
it's used in the fast path.  Making two variants is overkill, so
this patch just disables preemption around the call.

9ee73970c0 KVM: VMX: Fix delayed load of shared MSRs
Shared MSRs (MSR_*STAR and related) are stored in both vmx->guest_msrs
and in the CPU registers, but vmx_set_msr() only updated memory. Prior
to 46199f33c2, this didn't matter, since we called vmx_load_host_state(),
which scheduled a vmx_save_host_state(), which re-synchronized the CPU
state, but now we don't, so the CPU state will not be synchronized until
the next exit to host userspace.  This mostly affects nested vmx workloads,
which play with these MSRs a lot.

Fix by loading the MSR eagerly.

cc578287e3 KVM: Infrastructure for software and hardware based TSC rate scaling
This requires some restructuring; rather than use 'virtual_tsc_khz'
to indicate whether hardware rate scaling is in effect, we consider
each VCPU to always have a virtual TSC rate.  Instead, there is new
logic above the vendor-specific hardware scaling that decides whether
it is even necessary to use and updates all rate variables used by
common code.  This means we can simply query the virtual rate at
any point, which is needed for software rate scaling.

There is also now a threshold added to the TSC rate scaling; minor
differences and variations of measured TSC rate can accidentally
provoke rate scaling to be used when it is not needed.  Instead,
we have a tolerance variable called tsc_tolerance_ppm, which is
the maximum variation from user requested rate at which scaling
will be used.  The default is 250ppm, which is the half the
threshold for NTP adjustment, allowing for some hardware variation.

In the event that hardware rate scaling is not available, we can
kludge a bit by forcing TSC catchup to turn on when a faster than
hardware speed has been requested, but there is nothing available
yet for the reverse case; this requires a trap and emulate software
implementation for RDTSC, which is still forthcoming.

1361b83a13 i387: Split up <asm/i387.h> into exported and internal interfaces
While various modules include <asm/i387.h> to get access to things we
actually *intend* for them to use, most of that header file was really
pretty low-level internal stuff that we really don't want to expose to
others.

So split the header file into two: the small exported interfaces remain
in <asm/i387.h>, while the internal definitions that are only used by
core architecture code are now in <asm/fpu-internal.h>.

The guiding principle for this was to expose functions that we export to
modules, and leave them in <asm/i387.h>, while stuff that is used by
task switching or was marked GPL-only is in <asm/fpu-internal.h>.

The fpu-internal.h file could be further split up too, especially since
arch/x86/kvm/ uses some of the remaining stuff for its module.  But that
kvm usage should probably be abstracted out a bit, and at least now the
internal FPU accessor functions are much more contained.  Even if it
isn't perhaps as contained as it _could_ be.

f94edacf99 i387: move TS_USEDFPU flag from thread_info to task_struct
This moves the bit that indicates whether a thread has ownership of the
FPU from the TS_USEDFPU bit in thread_info->status to a word of its own
(called 'has_fpu') in task_struct->thread.has_fpu.

This fixes two independent bugs at the same time:

 - changing 'thread_info->status' from the scheduler causes nasty
   problems for the other users of that variable, since it is defined to
   be thread-synchronous (that's what the "TS_" part of the naming was
   supposed to indicate).

   So perfectly valid code could (and did) do

	ti->status |= TS_RESTORE_SIGMASK;

   and the compiler was free to do that as separate load, or and store
   instructions.  Which can cause problems with preemption, since a task
   switch could happen in between, and change the TS_USEDFPU bit. The
   change to TS_USEDFPU would be overwritten by the final store.

   In practice, this seldom happened, though, because the 'status' field
   was seldom used more than once, so gcc would generally tend to
   generate code that used a read-modify-write instruction and thus
   happened to avoid this problem - RMW instructions are naturally low
   fat and preemption-safe.

 - On x86-32, the current_thread_info() pointer would, during interrupts
   and softirqs, point to a *copy* of the real thread_info, because
   x86-32 uses %esp to calculate the thread_info address, and thus the
   separate irq (and softirq) stacks would cause these kinds of odd
   thread_info copy aliases.

   This is normally not a problem, since interrupts aren't supposed to
   look at thread information anyway (what thread is running at
   interrupt time really isn't very well-defined), but it confused the
   heck out of irq_fpu_usable() and the code that tried to squirrel
   away the FPU state.

   (It also caused untold confusion for us poor kernel developers).

It also turns out that using 'task_struct' is actually much more natural
for most of the call sites that care about the FPU state, since they
tend to work with the task struct for other reasons anyway (ie
scheduling).  And the FPU data that we are going to save/restore is
found there too.

Thanks to Arjan Van De Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> for pointing us to
the %esp issue.

6d59d7a9f5 i387: don't ever touch TS_USEDFPU directly, use helper functions
This creates three helper functions that do the TS_USEDFPU accesses, and
makes everybody that used to do it by hand use those helpers instead.

In addition, there's a couple of helper functions for the "change both
CR0.TS and TS_USEDFPU at the same time" case, and the places that do
that together have been changed to use those.  That means that we have
fewer random places that open-code this situation.

The intent is partly to clarify the code without actually changing any
semantics yet (since we clearly still have some hard to reproduce bug in
this area), but also to make it much easier to use another approach
entirely to caching the CR0.TS bit for software accesses.

Right now we use a bit in the thread-info 'status' variable (this patch
does not change that), but we might want to make it a full field of its
own or even make it a per-cpu variable.

51cfe38ea5 KVM: nVMX: Fix warning-causing idt-vectoring-info behavior
When L0 wishes to inject an interrupt while L2 is running, it emulates an exit
to L1 with EXIT_REASON_EXTERNAL_INTERRUPT. This was explained in the original
nVMX patch 23, titled "Correct handling of interrupt injection".

Unfortunately, it is possible (though rare) that at this point there is valid
idt_vectoring_info in vmcs02. For example, L1 injected some interrupt to L2,
and when L2 tried to run this interrupt's handler, it got a page fault - so
it returns the original interrupt vector in idt_vectoring_info. The problem
is that if this is the case, we cannot exit to L1 with EXTERNAL_INTERRUPT
like we wished to, because the VMX spec guarantees that idt_vectoring_info
and exit_reason_external_interrupt can never happen together. This is not
just specified in the spec - a KVM L1 actually prints a kernel warning
"unexpected, valid vectoring info" if we violate this guarantee, and some
users noticed these warnings in L1's logs.

In order to better emulate a processor, which would never return the external
interrupt and the idt-vectoring-info together, we need to separate the two
injection steps: First, complete L1's injection into L2 (i.e., enter L2,
injecting to it the idt-vectoring-info); Second, after entry into L2 succeeds
and it exits back to L0, exit to L1 with the EXIT_REASON_EXTERNAL_INTERRUPT.
Most of this is already in the code - the only change we need is to remain
in L2 (and not exit to L1) in this case.

Note that the previous patch ensures (by using KVM_REQ_IMMEDIATE_EXIT) that
although we do enter L2 first, it will exit immediately after processing its
injection, allowing us to promptly inject to L1.

Note how we test vmcs12->idt_vectoring_info_field; This isn't really the
vmcs12 value (we haven't exited to L1 yet, so vmcs12 hasn't been updated),
but rather the place we save, at the end of vmx_vcpu_run, the vmcs02 value
of this field. This was explained in patch 25 ("Correct handling of idt
vectoring info") of the original nVMX patch series.

Thanks to Dave Allan and to Federico Simoncelli for reporting this bug,
to Abel Gordon for helping me figure out the solution, and to Avi Kivity
for helping to improve it.

d6185f20a0 KVM: nVMX: Add KVM_REQ_IMMEDIATE_EXIT
This patch adds a new vcpu->requests bit, KVM_REQ_IMMEDIATE_EXIT.
This bit requests that when next entering the guest, we should run it only
for as little as possible, and exit again.

We use this new option in nested VMX: When L1 launches L2, but L0 wishes L1
to continue running so it can inject an event to it, we unfortunately cannot
just pretend to have run L2 for a little while - We must really launch L2,
otherwise certain one-off vmcs12 parameters (namely, L1 injection into L2)
will be lost. So the existing code runs L2 in this case.
But L2 could potentially run for a long time until it exits, and the
injection into L1 will be delayed. The new KVM_REQ_IMMEDIATE_EXIT allows us
to request that L2 will be entered, as necessary, but will exit as soon as
possible after entry.

Our implementation of this request uses smp_send_reschedule() to send a
self-IPI, with interrupts disabled. The interrupts remain disabled until the
guest is entered, and then, after the entry is complete (often including
processing an injection and jumping to the relevant handler), the physical
interrupt is noticed and causes an exit.

On recent Intel processors, we could have achieved the same goal by using
MTF instead of a self-IPI. Another technique worth considering in the future
is to use VM_EXIT_ACK_INTR_ON_EXIT and a highest-priority vector IPI - to
slightly improve performance by avoiding the useless interrupt handler
which ends up being called when smp_send_reschedule() is used.

This patch fixes two corner cases in nested (L2) handling of TSC-related
issues:

1. Somewhat suprisingly, according to the Intel spec, if L1 allows WRMSR to

offset by vmcs12.TSC_OFFSET (like was wrongly done in the previous code).

2. Allow L1 to disable the TSC_OFFSETING control, and then correctly ignore
the vmcs12.TSC_OFFSET.

d5c1785d2f KVM: L1 TSC handling
KVM assumed in several places that reading the TSC MSR returns the value for
L1. This is incorrect, because when L2 is running, the correct TSC read exit
emulation is to return L2's value.

We therefore add a new x86_ops function, read_l1_tsc, to use in places that
specifically need to read the L1 TSC, NOT the TSC of the current level of
guest.

Note that one change, of one line in kvm_arch_vcpu_load, is made redundant
by a different patch sent by Zachary Amsden (and not yet applied):

0d460ffc09 KVM: Use __print_symbolic() for vmexit tracepoints
The vmexit tracepoints format the exit_reason to make it human-readable.
Since the exit_reason depends on the instruction set (vmx or svm),
formatting is handled with ftrace_print_symbols_seq() by referring to
the appropriate exit reason table.

However, the ftrace_print_symbols_seq() function is not meant to be used
directly in tracepoints since it does not export the formatting table
which userspace tools like trace-cmd and perf use to format traces.

In practice perf dies when formatting vmexit-related events and
trace-cmd falls back to printing the numeric value (with extra
formatting code in the kvm plugin to paper over this limitation).  Other
userspace consumers of vmexit-related tracepoints would be in similar
trouble.

To avoid significant changes to the kvm_exit tracepoint, this patch
moves the vmx and svm exit reason tables into arch/x86/kvm/trace.h and
selects the right table with __print_symbolic() depending on the
instruction set.  Note that __print_symbolic() is designed for exporting
the formatting table to userspace and allows trace-cmd and perf to work.

ce88decffd KVM: MMU: mmio page fault support
The idea is from Avi:

| We could cache the result of a miss in an spte by using a reserved bit, and
| checking the page fault error code (or seeing if we get an ept violation or
| ept misconfiguration), so if we get repeated mmio on a page, we don't need to
| search the slot list/tree.
| (https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/2/22/221)

When the page fault is caused by mmio, we cache the info in the shadow page
table, and also set the reserved bits in the shadow page table, so if the mmio
is caused again, we can quickly identify it and emulate it directly

Searching mmio gfn in memslots is heavy since we need to walk all memeslots, it
can be reduced by this feature, and also avoid walking guest page table for
soft mmu.

The nested VMX feature is supposed to fully emulate VMX for the guest. This

to further emulate VMX for its own guests, and allow arbitrarily deep nesting.

This patch fixes a bug (discovered by Kevin Tian) in handling a VMLAUNCH

Deeper nesting now works (I only actually tested L3), but is currently

Additionally, we also need to modify vmx_adjust_tsc_offset: The semantics
of this function is that the TSC of all guests on this vcpu, L1 and possibly
several L2s, need to be adjusted. To do this, we need to adjust vmcs01's

vmcs01 now, so we have to remember this adjustment and apply it when we
later exit to L1.

KVM's "Lazy FPU loading" means that sometimes L0 needs to set CR0.TS, even

NM exceptions, even if we have a guest hypervisor (L1) who didn't want these
traps. And of course, conversely: If L1 wanted to trap these events, we
must let it, even if L0 is not interested in them.

This patch fixes some existing KVM code (in update_exception_bitmap(),
vmx_fpu_activate(), vmx_fpu_deactivate()) to do the correct merging of L0's
and L1's needs. Note that handle_cr() was already fixed in the above patch,

66c78ae40c KVM: nVMX: Correct handling of idt vectoring info
This patch adds correct handling of IDT_VECTORING_INFO_FIELD for the nested
case.

When a guest exits while delivering an interrupt or exception, we get this
information in IDT_VECTORING_INFO_FIELD in the VMCS. When L2 exits to L1,
there's nothing we need to do, because L1 will see this field in vmcs12, and
handle it itself. However, when L2 exits and L0 handles the exit itself and
plans to return to L2, L0 must inject this event to L2.

In the normal non-nested case, the idt_vectoring_info case is discovered after
the exit, and the decision to inject (though not the injection itself) is made
at that point. However, in the nested case a decision of whether to return
to L2 or L1 also happens during the injection phase (see the previous
patches), so in the nested case we can only decide what to do about the
idt_vectoring_info right after the injection, i.e., in the beginning of
vmx_vcpu_run, which is the first time we know for sure if we're staying in
L2.

Therefore, when we exit L2 (is_guest_mode(vcpu)), we disable the regular
vmx_complete_interrupts() code which queues the idt_vectoring_info for
injection on next entry - because such injection would not be appropriate
if we will decide to exit to L1. Rather, we just save the idt_vectoring_info
and related fields in vmcs12 (which is a convenient place to save these
fields). On the next entry in vmx_vcpu_run (*after* the injection phase,
potentially exiting to L1 to inject an event requested by user space), if
we find ourselves in L1 we don't need to do anything with those values
we saved (as explained above). But if we find that we're in L2, or rather
*still* at L2 (it's not nested_run_pending, meaning that this is the first
round of L2 running after L1 having just launched it), we need to inject
the event saved in those fields - by writing the appropriate VMCS fields.

b6f1250edb KVM: nVMX: Correct handling of interrupt injection
The code in this patch correctly emulates external-interrupt injection
while a nested guest L2 is running.

Because of this code's relative un-obviousness, I include here a longer-than-
usual justification for what it does - much longer than the code itself ;-)

To understand how to correctly emulate interrupt injection while L2 is
running, let's look first at what we need to emulate: How would things look
like if the extra L0 hypervisor layer is removed, and instead of L0 injecting
an interrupt, we had hardware delivering an interrupt?

Now we have L1 running on bare metal with a guest L2, and the hardware
generates an interrupt. Assuming that L1 set PIN_BASED_EXT_INTR_MASK to 1, and
VM_EXIT_ACK_INTR_ON_EXIT to 0 (we'll revisit these assumptions below), what
happens now is this: The processor exits from L2 to L1, with an external-
interrupt exit reason but without an interrupt vector. L1 runs, with
interrupts disabled, and it doesn't yet know what the interrupt was. Soon
after, it enables interrupts and only at that moment, it gets the interrupt
from the processor. when L1 is KVM, Linux handles this interrupt.

Now we need exactly the same thing to happen when that L1->L2 system runs
on top of L0, instead of real hardware. This is how we do this:

When L0 wants to inject an interrupt, it needs to exit from L2 to L1, with
external-interrupt exit reason (with an invalid interrupt vector), and run L1.
Just like in the bare metal case, it likely can't deliver the interrupt to
L1 now because L1 is running with interrupts disabled, in which case it turns
on the interrupt window when running L1 after the exit. L1 will soon enable
interrupts, and at that point L0 will gain control again and inject the
interrupt to L1.

Finally, there is an extra complication in the code: when nested_run_pending,
we cannot return to L1 now, and must launch L2. We need to remember the
interrupt we wanted to inject (and not clear it now), and do it on the
next exit.

The above explanation shows that the relative strangeness of the nested
interrupt injection code in this patch, and the extra interrupt-window
exit incurred, are in fact necessary for accurate emulation, and are not
just an unoptimized implementation.

Let's revisit now the two assumptions made above:

If L1 turns off PIN_BASED_EXT_INTR_MASK (no hypervisor that I know
does, by the way), things are simple: L0 may inject the interrupt directly
to the L2 guest - using the normal code path that injects to any guest.
We support this case in the code below.

If L1 turns on VM_EXIT_ACK_INTR_ON_EXIT, things look very different from the
description above: L1 expects to see an exit from L2 with the interrupt vector
already filled in the exit information, and does not expect to be interrupted
again with this interrupt. The current code does not (yet) support this case,
so we do not allow the VM_EXIT_ACK_INTR_ON_EXIT exit-control to be turned on
by L1.

644d711aa0 KVM: nVMX: Deciding if L0 or L1 should handle an L2 exit
This patch contains the logic of whether an L2 exit should be handled by L0
and then L2 should be resumed, or whether L1 should be run to handle this
exit (using the nested_vmx_vmexit() function of the previous patch).

The basic idea is to let L1 handle the exit only if it actually asked to
trap this sort of event. For example, when L2 exits on a change to CR0,
we check L1's CR0_GUEST_HOST_MASK to see if L1 expressed interest in any
bit which changed; If it did, we exit to L1. But if it didn't it means that
it is we (L0) that wished to trap this event, so we handle it ourselves.

The next two patches add additional logic of what to do when an interrupt or
exception is injected: Does L0 need to do it, should we exit to L1 to do it,
or should we resume L2 and keep the exception to be injected later.

We keep a new flag, "nested_run_pending", which can override the decision of
which should run next, L1 or L2. nested_run_pending=1 means that we *must* run
L2 next, not L1. This is necessary in particular when L1 did a VMLAUNCH of L2
and therefore expects L2 to be run (and perhaps be injected with an event it
specified, etc.). Nested_run_pending is especially intended to avoid switching
to L1 in the injection decision-point described above.

According to the spec, there are two types of entry failures: If the problem
was in vmcs12's host state or control fields, the VMLAUNCH instruction simply
fails. But a problem is found in the guest state, the behavior is more
similar to that of an exit.

ff2f6fe961 KVM: nVMX: Introduce vmcs02: VMCS used to run L2
We saw in a previous patch that L1 controls its L2 guest with a vcms12.
L0 needs to create a real VMCS for running L2. We call that "vmcs02".
A later patch will contain the code, prepare_vmcs02(), for filling the vmcs02
fields. This patch only contains code for allocating vmcs02.

In this version, prepare_vmcs02() sets *all* of vmcs02's fields each time we
enter from L1 to L2, so keeping just one vmcs02 for the vcpu is enough: It can
be reused even when L1 runs multiple L2 guests. However, in future versions
we'll probably want to add an optimization where vmcs02 fields that rarely
change will not be set each time. For that, we may want to keep around several
vmcs02s of L2 guests that have recently run, so that potentially we could run
these L2s again more quickly because less vmwrites to vmcs02 will be needed.

This patch adds to each vcpu a vmcs02 pool, vmx->nested.vmcs02_pool,
which remembers the vmcs02s last used to run up to VMCS02_POOL_SIZE L2s.
As explained above, in the current version we choose VMCS02_POOL_SIZE=1,
I.e., one vmcs02 is allocated (and loaded onto the processor), and it is
reused to enter any L2 guest. In the future, when prepare_vmcs02() is
optimized not to set all fields every time, VMCS02_POOL_SIZE should be
increased.

5e1746d620 KVM: nVMX: Allow setting the VMXE bit in CR4
This patch allows the guest to enable the VMXE bit in CR4, which is a
prerequisite to running VMXON.

Whether to allow setting the VMXE bit now depends on the architecture (svm
or vmx), so its checking has moved to kvm_x86_ops->set_cr4(). This function
now returns an int: If kvm_x86_ops->set_cr4() returns 1, __kvm_set_cr4()
will also return 1, and this will cause kvm_set_cr4() will throw a #GP.

Turning on the VMXE bit is allowed only when the nested VMX feature is
enabled, and turning it off is forbidden after a vmxon.

801d342432 KVM: nVMX: Add "nested" module option to kvm_intel
This patch adds to kvm_intel a module option "nested". This option controls
whether the guest can use VMX instructions, i.e., whether we allow nested
virtualization. A similar, but separate, option already exists for the
SVM module.

This option currently defaults to 0, meaning that nested VMX must be
explicitly enabled by giving nested=1. When nested VMX matures, the default
should probably be changed to enable nested VMX by default - just like
nested SVM is currently enabled by default.

d462b81923 KVM: VMX: Keep list of loaded VMCSs, instead of vcpus
In VMX, before we bring down a CPU we must VMCLEAR all VMCSs loaded on it
because (at least in theory) the processor might not have written all of its
content back to memory. Since a patch from June 26, 2008, this is done using
a per-cpu "vcpus_on_cpu" linked list of vcpus loaded on each CPU.

The problem is that with nested VMX, we no longer have the concept of a
vcpu being loaded on a cpu: A vcpu has multiple VMCSs (one for L1, a pool for
L2s), and each of those may be have been last loaded on a different cpu.

So instead of linking the vcpus, we link the VMCSs, using a new structure
loaded_vmcs. This structure contains the VMCS, and the information pertaining
to its loading on a specific cpu (namely, the cpu number, and whether it
was already launched on this cpu once). In nested we will also use the same
structure to hold L2 VMCSs, and vmx->loaded_vmcs is a pointer to the
currently active VMCS.

Introduce this as a module-level option for kvm-vmx.ko since if you do this
for one guest, you probably want to do it for all.

The exit reason alone is insufficient to understand exactly why an exit

Because fetching these parameters is expensive on vmx, and because these

f56f536956 KVM: Move KVM context switch into own function
gcc 4.5 with some special options is able to duplicate the VMX
context switch asm in vmx_vcpu_run(). This results in a compile error
because the inline asm sequence uses an on local label. The non local
label is needed because other code wants to set up the return address.

This patch moves the asm code into an own function and marks
that explicitely noinline to avoid this problem.

Better would be probably to just move it into an .S file.

The diff looks worse than the change really is, it's all just
code movement and no logic change.

SDM suggests VMXON should be called before VMPTRLD, and VMXOFF
should be called after doing VMCLEAR.

Therefore in vmm coexistence case, we should firstly call VMXON
before any VMCS operation, and then call VMXOFF after the
operation is done.

da38f43859 KVM: VMX: Fix host MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASE corruption
enter_lmode() and exit_lmode() modify the guest's EFER.LMA before calling
vmx_set_efer().  However, the latter function depends on the value of EFER.LMA
to determine whether MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASE needs reloading, via
vmx_load_host_state().  With EFER.LMA changing under its feet, it took the
wrong choice and corrupted userspace's %gs.

This causes 32-on-64 host userspace to fault.

cafd66595d KVM: VMX: enable VMXON check with SMX enabled (Intel TXT)
Per document, for feature control MSR:

  Bit 1 enables VMXON in SMX operation. If the bit is clear, execution
        of VMXON in SMX operation causes a general-protection exception.
  Bit 2 enables VMXON outside SMX operation. If the bit is clear, execution
        of VMXON outside SMX operation causes a general-protection exception.

This patch is to enable this kind of check with SMX for VMXON in KVM.

ce7ddec4bb KVM: x86: Allow marking an exception as reinjected
This patch adds logic to kvm/x86 which allows to mark an
injected exception as reinjected. This allows to remove an
ugly hack from svm_complete_interrupts that prevented
exceptions from being reinjected at all in the nested case.
The hack was necessary because an reinjected exception into
the nested guest could cause a nested vmexit emulation. But
reinjected exceptions must not intercept. The downside of
the hack is that a exception that in injected could get
lost.
This patch fixes the problem and puts the code for it into
generic x86 files because. Nested-VMX will likely have the
same problem and could reuse the code.

blocking NMI, it could return immediately with EXIT_REASON_NMI_WINDOW

Resolve this by allowing NMI injection if just GUEST_INTR_STATE_STI is

safe, the processor will never complain about NMI injection in this

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

c573cd2293 KVM: VMX: Update instruction length on intercepted BP
We intercept #BP while in guest debugging mode. As VM exits due to
intercepted exceptions do not necessarily come with valid
idt_vectoring, we have to update event_exit_inst_len explicitly in such
cases. At least in the absence of migration, this ensures that
re-injections of #BP will find and use the correct instruction length.

4b8d54f972 KVM: VMX: Add support for Pause-Loop Exiting
New NHM processors will support Pause-Loop Exiting by adding 2 VM-execution
control fields:
PLE_Gap    - upper bound on the amount of time between two successive
             executions of PAUSE in a loop.
PLE_Window - upper bound on the amount of time a guest is allowed to execute in
             a PAUSE loop

If the time, between this execution of PAUSE and previous one, exceeds the
PLE_Gap, processor consider this PAUSE belongs to a new loop.
Otherwise, processor determins the the total execution time of this loop(since
1st PAUSE in this loop), and triggers a VM exit if total time exceeds the
PLE_Window.
* Refer SDM volume 3b section 21.6.13 & 22.1.3.

Pause-Loop Exiting can be used to detect Lock-Holder Preemption, where one VP
is sched-out after hold a spinlock, then other VPs for same lock are sched-in
to waste the CPU time.

Our tests indicate that most spinlocks are held for less than 212 cycles.
Performance tests show that with 2X LP over-commitment we can get +2% perf
improvement for kernel build(Even more perf gain with more LPs).

10474ae894 KVM: Activate Virtualization On Demand
X86 CPUs need to have some magic happening to enable the virtualization
extensions on them. This magic can result in unpleasant results for
users, like blocking other VMMs from working (vmx) or using invalid TLB
entries (svm).

Currently KVM activates virtualization when the respective kernel module
is loaded. This blocks us from autoloading KVM modules without breaking
other VMMs.

To circumvent this problem at least a bit, this patch introduces on
demand activation of virtualization. This means, that instead
virtualization is enabled on creation of the first virtual machine
and disabled on destruction of the last one.

So using this, KVM can be easily autoloaded, while keeping other
hypervisors usable.

Intel Westmere and onwards processors will support this feature.

    It allows kvm guests to run real mode and unpaged mode
code natively in the VMX mode when EPT is turned on. With the
unrestricted guest there is no need to emulate the guest real mode code
in the vm86 container or in the emulator. Also the guest big real mode
code works like native.

  The attached patch enhances KVM to use the unrestricted guest feature
if available on the processor. It also adds a new kernel/module
parameter to disable the unrestricted guest feature at the boot time.

since we run in guest context with the guest MSR value loaded (so swapgs can

A complication occurs since in legacy mode, we run with the host MSR value

401d10dee0 KVM: VMX: Update necessary state when guest enters long mode
setup_msrs() should be called when entering long mode to save the
shadow state for the 64-bit guest state.

Using vmx_set_efer() in enter_lmode() removes some duplicated code
and also ensures we call setup_msrs(). We can safely pass the value
of shadow_efer to vmx_set_efer() as no other bits in the efer change
while enabling long mode (guest first sets EFER.LME, then sets CR0.PG
which causes a vmexit where we activate long mode).

With this fix, is_long_mode() can check for EFER.LMA set instead of
EFER.LME and 5e23049e86dd298b72e206b420513dbc3a240cd9 can be reverted.

42dbaa5a05 KVM: x86: Virtualize debug registers
So far KVM only had basic x86 debug register support, once introduced to
realize guest debugging that way. The guest itself was not able to use
those registers.

This patch now adds (almost) full support for guest self-debugging via
hardware registers. It refactors the code, moving generic parts out of
SVM (VMX was already cleaned up by the KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG patches), and
it ensures that the registers are properly switched between host and
guest.

This patch also prepares debug register usage by the host. The latter
will (once wired-up by the following patch) allow for hardware
breakpoints/watchpoints in guest code. If this is enabled, the guest
will only see faked debug registers without functionality, but with
content reflecting the guest's modifications.

Tested on Intel only, but SVM /should/ work as well, but who knows...

Known limitations: Trapping on tss switch won't work - most probably on
Intel.

Credits also go to Joerg Roedel - I used his once posted debugging
series as platform for this patch.

d0bfb940ec KVM: New guest debug interface
This rips out the support for KVM_DEBUG_GUEST and introduces a new IOCTL
instead: KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG. The IOCTL payload consists of a generic
part, controlling the "main switch" and the single-step feature. The
arch specific part adds an x86 interface for intercepting both types of
debug exceptions separately and re-injecting them when the host was not
interested. Moveover, the foundation for guest debugging via debug
registers is layed.

To signal breakpoint events properly back to userland, an arch-specific
data block is now returned along KVM_EXIT_DEBUG. For x86, the arch block
contains the PC, the debug exception, and relevant debug registers to
tell debug events properly apart.

The availability of this new interface is signaled by
KVM_CAP_SET_GUEST_DEBUG. Empty stubs for not yet supported archs are
provided.

Note that both SVM and VTX are supported, but only the latter was tested
yet. Based on the experience with all those VTX corner case, I would be
fairly surprised if SVM will work out of the box.

4531220b71 KVM: x86: Rework user space NMI injection as KVM_CAP_USER_NMI
There is no point in doing the ready_for_nmi_injection/
request_nmi_window dance with user space. First, we don't do this for
in-kernel irqchip anyway, while the code path is the same as for user
space irqchip mode. And second, there is nothing to loose if a pending
NMI is overwritten by another one (in contrast to IRQs where we have to
save the number). Actually, there is even the risk of raising spurious
NMIs this way because the reason for the held-back NMI might already be
handled while processing the first one.

Therefore this patch creates a simplified user space NMI injection
interface, exporting it under KVM_CAP_USER_NMI and dropping the old
KVM_CAP_NMI capability. And this time we also take care to provide the
interface only on archs supporting NMIs via KVM (right now only x86).

3b86cd9967 KVM: VMX: work around lacking VNMI support
Older VMX supporting CPUs do not provide the "Virtual NMI" feature for
tracking the NMI-blocked state after injecting such events. For now
KVM is unable to inject NMIs on those CPUs.

Derived from Sheng Yang's suggestion to use the IRQ window notification
for detecting the end of NMI handlers, this patch implements virtual
NMI support without impact on the host's ability to receive real NMIs.
The downside is that the given approach requires some heuristics that
can cause NMI nesting in vary rare corner cases.

The approach works as follows:
 - inject NMI and set a software-based NMI-blocked flag
 - arm the IRQ window start notification whenever an NMI window is
   requested
 - if the guest exits due to an opening IRQ window, clear the emulated
   NMI-blocked flag
 - if the guest net execution time with NMI-blocked but without an IRQ
   window exceeds 1 second, force NMI-blocked reset and inject anyway

This approach covers most practical scenarios:
 - succeeding NMIs are seperated by at least one open IRQ window
 - the guest may spin with IRQs disabled (e.g. due to a bug), but
   leaving the NMI handler takes much less time than one second
 - the guest does not rely on strict ordering or timing of NMIs
   (would be problematic in virtualized environments anyway)

Successfully tested with the 'nmi n' monitor command, the kgdbts
testsuite on smp guests (additional patches required to add debug
register support to kvm) + the kernel's nmi_watchdog=1, and a Siemens-
specific board emulation (+ guest) that comes with its own NMI
watchdog mechanism.
