b034cf0105 KVM: MMU: audit: allow audit more guests at the same time
It only allows to audit one guest in the system since:
- 'audit_point' is a glob variable
- mmu_audit_disable() is called in kvm_mmu_destroy(), so audit is disabled
  after a guest exited

this patch fix those issues then allow to audit more guests at the same time

dc25e89e07 KVM: SVM: copy instruction bytes from VMCB
In case of a nested page fault or an intercepted #PF newer SVM
implementations provide a copy of the faulting instruction bytes
in the VMCB.
Use these bytes to feed the instruction emulator and avoid the costly
guest instruction fetch in this case.

This patch implements the xsetbv intercept to the AMD part
of KVM. This makes AVX usable in a save way for the guest on
AVX capable AMD hardware.

The patch is tested by using AVX in the guest and host in
parallel and checking for data corruption. I also used the
KVM xsave unit-tests and they all pass.

443381a828 KVM: VMX: add module parameter to avoid trapping HLT instructions (v5)
In certain use-cases, we want to allocate guests fixed time slices where idle
guest cycles leave the machine idling.  There are many approaches to achieve
this but the most direct is to simply avoid trapping the HLT instruction which
lets the guest directly execute the instruction putting the processor to sleep.

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.

b7c4145ba2 KVM: Don't spin on virt instruction faults during reboot
Since vmx blocks INIT signals, we disable virtualization extensions during
reboot.  This leads to virtualization instructions faulting; we trap these
faults and spin while the reboot continues.

Unfortunately spinning on a non-preemptible kernel may block a task that
reboot depends on; this causes the reboot to hang.

Fix by skipping over the instruction and hoping for the best.

This patch ignores the top 2MB instead of just 1MB because H. Peter Anvin

This patch for SGI UV systems addresses a problem whereby
interrupt transactions being looped back from a local IOH,
through the hub to a local CPU can (erroneously) conflict with
IO port operations and other transactions.

To workaound this we set a high bit in the APIC IDs used for
interrupts. This bit appears to be ignored by the sockets, but
it avoids the conflict in the hub.

7e77506a59 xen: implement XENMEM_machphys_mapping
This hypercall allows Xen to specify a non-default location for the
machine to physical mapping. This capability is used when running a 32
bit domain 0 on a 64 bit hypervisor to shrink the hypervisor hole to
exactly the size required.

[ Impact: add Xen hypercall definitions ]

b590854853 tracing: Force arch_local_irq_* notrace for paravirt
When running ktest.pl randconfig tests, I would sometimes trigger
a lockdep annotation bug (possible reason: unannotated irqs-on).

This triggering happened right after function tracer self test was
executed. After doing a config bisect I found that this was caused with
having function tracer, paravirt guest, prove locking, and rcu torture
all enabled.

The rcu torture just enhanced the likelyhood of triggering the bug.
Prove locking was needed, since it was the thing that was bugging.
Function tracer would trace and disable interrupts in all sorts
of funny places.
paravirt guest would turn arch_local_irq_* into functions that would
be traced.

Besides the fact that tracing arch_local_irq_* is just a bad idea,
this is what is happening.

The bug happened simply in the local_irq_restore() code:

		if (raw_irqs_disabled_flags(flags)) {	\
			raw_local_irq_restore(flags);	\
			trace_hardirqs_off();		\
		} else {				\
			trace_hardirqs_on();		\
			raw_local_irq_restore(flags);	\
		}					\

The raw_local_irq_restore() was defined as arch_local_irq_restore().

Now imagine, we are about to enable interrupts. We go into the else
case and call trace_hardirqs_on() which tells lockdep that we are enabling
interrupts, so it sets the current->hardirqs_enabled = 1.

Then we call raw_local_irq_restore() which calls arch_local_irq_restore()
which gets traced!

Now in the function tracer we disable interrupts with local_irq_save().
This is fine, but flags is stored that we have interrupts disabled.

When the function tracer calls local_irq_restore() it does it, but this
time with flags set as disabled, so we go into the if () path.
This keeps interrupts disabled and calls trace_hardirqs_off() which
sets current->hardirqs_enabled = 0.

When the tracer is finished and proceeds with the original code,
we enable interrupts but leave current->hardirqs_enabled as 0. Which
now breaks lockdeps internal processing.
