Amit Shah 6762b7299a KVM: Device assignment: Check for privileges before assigning irq
Even though we don't share irqs at the moment, we should ensure
regular user processes don't try to allocate system resources.

We check for capability to access IO devices (CAP_SYS_RAWIO) before
we request_irq on behalf of the guest.

Dave Hansen f0d662759a KVM: Reduce kvm stack usage in kvm_arch_vm_ioctl()
On my machine with gcc 3.4, kvm uses ~2k of stack in a few
select functions.  This is mostly because gcc fails to
notice that the different case: statements could have their
stack usage combined.  It overflows very nicely if interrupts
happen during one of these large uses.

This patch uses two methods for reducing stack usage.
1. dynamically allocate large objects instead of putting
   on the stack.
2. Use a union{} member for all of the case variables. This
   tricks gcc into combining them all into a single stack
   allocation. (There's also a comment on this)

Ben-Ami Yassour 4d5c5d0fe8 KVM: pci device assignment
Based on a patch from: Amit Shah <amit.shah@qumranet.com>

This patch adds support for handling PCI devices that are assigned to
the guest.

The device to be assigned to the guest is registered in the host kernel
and interrupt delivery is handled.  If a device is already assigned, or
the device driver for it is still loaded on the host, the device
assignment is failed by conveying a -EBUSY reply to the userspace.

Devices that share their interrupt line are not supported at the moment.

By itself, this patch will not make devices work within the guest.
The VT-d extension is required to enable the device to perform DMA.
Another alternative is PVDMA.

Alexander Graf b5e2fec0eb KVM: Ignore DEBUGCTL MSRs with no effect
Netware writes to DEBUGCTL and reads from the DEBUGCTL and LAST*IP MSRs
without further checks and is really confused to receive a #GP during that.
To make it happy we should just make them stubs, which is exactly what SVM
already does.

Writes to DEBUGCTL that are vendor-specific are resembled to behave as if the
virtual CPU does not know them.

Avi Kivity 543e424366 KVM: VMX: Add list of potentially locally cached vcpus
VMX hardware can cache the contents of a vcpu's vmcs.  This cache needs
to be flushed when migrating a vcpu to another cpu, or (which is the case
that interests us here) when disabling hardware virtualization on a cpu.

The current implementation of decaching iterates over the list of all vcpus,
picks the ones that are potentially cached on the cpu that is being offlined,
and flushes the cache.  The problem is that it uses mutex_trylock() to gain
exclusive access to the vcpu, which fires off a (benign) warning about using
the mutex in an interrupt context.

To avoid this, and to make things generally nicer, add a new per-cpu list
of potentially cached vcus.  This makes the decaching code much simpler.  The
list is vmx-specific since other hardware doesn't have this issue.

If a timer fires after kvm_inject_pending_timer_irqs() but before
local_irq_disable() the code will enter guest mode and only inject such
timer interrupt the next time an unrelated event causes an exit.

It would be simpler if the timer->pending irq conversion could be done
with IRQ's disabled, so that the above problem cannot happen.

Marcelo Tosatti d4acf7e7ab KVM: Fix race between timer migration and vcpu migration
A guest vcpu instance can be scheduled to a different physical CPU
between the test for KVM_REQ_MIGRATE_TIMER and local_irq_disable().

If that happens, the timer will only be migrated to the current pCPU on
the next exit, meaning that guest LAPIC timer event can be delayed until
a host interrupt is triggered.

Fix it by cancelling guest entry if any vcpu request is pending.  This
has the side effect of nicely consolidating vcpu->requests checks.

There is a window open between testing of pending IRQ's

Injection of IRQ's can race with __vcpu_run as follows:

CPU0                                CPU1
kvm_x86_ops->run()
vcpu->guest_mode = 0                SET_IRQ_LINE ioctl
..
kvm_x86_ops->inject_pending_irq
kvm_cpu_has_interrupt()

                                    apic_test_and_set_irr()
                                    kvm_vcpu_kick
                                    if (vcpu->guest_mode)
                                        send_ipi()

vcpu->guest_mode = 1

So move guest_mode=1 assignment before ->inject_pending_irq, and make
sure that it won't reorder after it.

Joerg Roedel 71c4dfafc0 KVM: detect if VCPU triple faults
In the current inject_page_fault path KVM only checks if there is another PF
pending and injects a DF then. But it has to check for a pending DF too to
detect a shutdown condition in the VCPU.  If this is not detected the VCPU goes
to a PF -> DF -> PF loop when it should triple fault. This patch detects this
condition and handles it with an KVM_SHUTDOWN exit to userspace.

Avi Kivity 674eea0fc4 KVM: Make the supported cpuid list a host property rather than a vm property
One of the use cases for the supported cpuid list is to create a "greatest
common denominator" of cpu capabilities in a server farm.  As such, it is
useful to be able to get the list without creating a virtual machine first.

Since the code does not depend on the vm in any way, all that is needed is
to move it to the device ioctl handler.  The capability identifier is also
changed so that binaries made against -rc1 will fail gracefully.

Sheng Yang 571008dacc KVM: x86 emulator: Only allow VMCALL/VMMCALL trapped by #UD
When executing a test program called "crashme", we found the KVM guest cannot
survive more than ten seconds, then encounterd kernel panic. The basic concept
of "crashme" is generating random assembly code and trying to execute it.

After some fixes on emulator insn validity judgment, we found it's hard to
get the current emulator handle the invalid instructions correctly, for the
#UD trap for hypercall patching caused troubles. The problem is, if the opcode
itself was OK, but combination of opcode and modrm_reg was invalid, and one
operand of the opcode was memory (SrcMem or DstMem), the emulator will fetch
the memory operand first rather than checking the validity, and may encounter
an error there. For example, ".byte 0xfe, 0x34, 0xcd" has this problem.

In the patch, we simply check that if the invalid opcode wasn't vmcall/vmmcall,
then return from emulate_instruction() and inject a #UD to guest. With the
patch, the guest had been running for more than 12 hours.
