kvm_pv_mmu_op should not take mmap_sem. All gfn_to_page() callers down
in the MMU processing will take it if necessary, so as it is it can
deadlock.
Apparently a leftover from the days before slots_lock.

There is not selective cr0 intercept bug. The code in the comment sets the
CR0.PG bit. But KVM sets the CR4.PG bit for SVM always to implement the paged
real mode. So the 'mov %eax,%cr0' instruction does not change the CR0.PG bit.
Selective CR0 intercepts only occur when a bit is actually changed. So its the
right behavior that there is no intercept on this instruction.

This functionality is definitely experimental, but is capable of running
unmodified PowerPC 440 Linux kernels as guests on a PowerPC 440 host. (Only
tested with 440EP "Bamboo" guests so far, but with appropriate userspace
support other SoC/board combinations should work.)
See Documentation/powerpc/kvm_440.txt for technical details.

There is a window open between testing of pending IRQ's
and assignment of guest_mode in __vcpu_run.
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.

ignored, possibly resulting in hangs.
Also make sure that atomic_inc and waitqueue_active tests happen in the
specified order, otherwise the following race is open:
CPU0 CPU1
if (waitqueue_active(wq))
add_wait_queue()
if (!atomic_read(pit_timer->pending))

This patch introduces a gfn_to_pfn() function and corresponding functions like
kvm_release_pfn_dirty(). Using these new functions, we can modify the x86
MMU to no longer assume that it can always get a struct page for any given gfn.
We don't want to eliminate gfn_to_page() entirely because a number of places
assume they can do gfn_to_page() and then kmap() the results. When we support
IO memory, gfn_to_page() will fail for IO pages although gfn_to_pfn() will
succeed.
This does not implement support for avoiding reference counting for reserved
RAM or for IO memory. However, it should make those things pretty straight
forward.
Since we're only introducing new common symbols, I don't think it will break
the non-x86 architectures but I haven't tested those. I've tested Intel,
AMD, NPT, and hugetlbfs with Windows and Linux guests.

Zdenek reported a bug where a looping "dmsetup status" eventually hangs
on SMP guests.
The problem is that kvm_mmu_get_page() prepopulates the shadow MMU
before write protecting the guest page tables. By doing so, it leaves a
window open where the guest can mark a pte as present while the host has
shadow cached such pte as "notrap". Accesses to such address will fault
in the guest without the host having a chance to fix the situation.
Fix by moving the write protection before the pte prefetch.

If the accessed bit is not set, the guest has never accessed this page
(at least through this spte), so there's no need to mark the page
accessed. This provides more accurate data for the eviction algortithm.

This patch adds functionality to detect if the kernel runs under the KVM
hypervisor. A macro MACHINE_IS_KVM is exported for device drivers. This
allows drivers to skip device detection if the systems runs non-virtualized.

This patch introduces interpretation of some diagnose instruction intercepts.
Diagnose is our classic architected way of doing a hypercall. This patch
features the following diagnose codes:
- vm storage size, that tells the guest about its memory layout
- time slice end, which is used by the guest to indicate that it waits
for a lock and thus cannot use up its time slice in a useful way
- ipl functions, which a guest can use to reset and reboot itself
In order to implement ipl functions, we also introduce an exit reason that
causes userspace to perform various resets on the virtual machine. All resets
are described in the principles of operation book, except KVM_S390_RESET_IPL
which causes a reboot of the machine.
