Glauber Costa e3267cbbbf KVM: x86: include pvclock MSRs in msrs_to_save
For a while now, we are issuing a rdmsr instruction to find out which
msrs in our save list are really supported by the underlying machine.
However, it fails to account for kvm-specific msrs, such as the pvclock
ones.

This patch moves then to the beginning of the list, and skip testing them.

Zachary Amsden 0cca790753 KVM: Kill the confusing tsc_ref_khz and ref_freq variables
They are globals, not clearly protected by any ordering or locking, and
vulnerable to various startup races.

Instead, for variable TSC machines, register the cpufreq notifier and get
the TSC frequency directly from the cpufreq machinery.  Not only is it
always right, it is also perfectly accurate, as no error prone measurement
is required.

On such machines, when a new CPU online is brought online, it isn't clear what
frequency it will start with, and it may not correspond to the reference, thus
in hardware_enable we clear the cpu_tsc_khz variable to zero and make sure
it is set before running on a VCPU.

Alexander Graf 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.

Frederic Weisbecker 24f1e32c60 hw-breakpoints: Rewrite the hw-breakpoints layer on top of perf events
This patch rebase the implementation of the breakpoints API on top of
perf events instances.

Each breakpoints are now perf events that handle the
register scheduling, thread/cpu attachment, etc..

The new layering is now made as follows:

       ptrace       kgdb      ftrace   perf syscall
          \          |          /         /
           \         |         /         /
                                        /
            Core breakpoint API        /
                                      /
                     |               /
                     |              /

              Breakpoints perf events

                     |
                     |

               Breakpoints PMU ---- Debug Register constraints handling
                                    (Part of core breakpoint API)
                     |
                     |

             Hardware debug registers

Reasons of this rewrite:

- Use the centralized/optimized pmu registers scheduling,
  implying an easier arch integration
- More powerful register handling: perf attributes (pinned/flexible
  events, exclusive/non-exclusive, tunable period, etc...)

Impact:

- New perf ABI: the hardware breakpoints counters
- Ptrace breakpoints setting remains tricky and still needs some per
  thread breakpoints references.

Todo (in the order):

- Support breakpoints perf counter events for perf tools (ie: implement
  perf_bpcounter_event())
- Support from perf tools

Changes in v2:

- Follow the perf "event " rename
- The ptrace regression have been fixed (ptrace breakpoint perf events
  weren't released when a task ended)
- Drop the struct hw_breakpoint and store generic fields in
  perf_event_attr.
- Separate core and arch specific headers, drop
  asm-generic/hw_breakpoint.h and create linux/hw_breakpoint.h
- Use new generic len/type for breakpoint
- Handle off case: when breakpoints api is not supported by an arch

Changes in v3:

- Fix broken CONFIG_KVM, we need to propagate the breakpoint api
  changes to kvm when we exit the guest and restore the bp registers
  to the host.

Changes in v4:

- Drop the hw_breakpoint_restore() stub as it is only used by KVM
- EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL hw_breakpoint_restore() as KVM can be built as a
  module
- Restore the breakpoints unconditionally on kvm guest exit:
  TIF_DEBUG_THREAD doesn't anymore cover every cases of running
  breakpoints and vcpu->arch.switch_db_regs might not always be
  set when the guest used debug registers.
  (Waiting for a reliable optimization)

Changes in v5:

- Split-up the asm-generic/hw-breakpoint.h moving to
  linux/hw_breakpoint.h into a separate patch
- Optimize the breakpoints restoring while switching from kvm guest
  to host. We only want to restore the state if we have active
  breakpoints to the host, otherwise we don't care about messed-up
  address registers.
- Add asm/hw_breakpoint.h to Kbuild
- Fix bad breakpoint type in trace_selftest.c

Changes in v6:

- Fix wrong header inclusion in trace.h (triggered a build
  error with CONFIG_FTRACE_SELFTEST

Anthony Liguori c0c7c04b87 KVM: When switching to a vm8086 task, load segments as 16-bit
According to 16.2.5 in the SDM, eflags.vm in the tss is consulted before loading
and new segments.  If eflags.vm == 1, then the segments are treated as 16-bit
segments.  The LDTR and TR are not normally available in vm86 mode so if they
happen to somehow get loaded, they need to be treated as 32-bit segments.

This fixes an invalid vmentry failure in a custom OS that was happening after
a task switch into vm8086 mode.  Since the segments were being mistakenly
treated as 32-bit, we loaded garbage state.

Gregory Haskins d34e6b175e KVM: add ioeventfd support
ioeventfd is a mechanism to register PIO/MMIO regions to trigger an eventfd
signal when written to by a guest.  Host userspace can register any
arbitrary IO address with a corresponding eventfd and then pass the eventfd
to a specific end-point of interest for handling.

Normal IO requires a blocking round-trip since the operation may cause
side-effects in the emulated model or may return data to the caller.
Therefore, an IO in KVM traps from the guest to the host, causes a VMX/SVM
"heavy-weight" exit back to userspace, and is ultimately serviced by qemu's
device model synchronously before returning control back to the vcpu.

However, there is a subclass of IO which acts purely as a trigger for
other IO (such as to kick off an out-of-band DMA request, etc).  For these
patterns, the synchronous call is particularly expensive since we really
only want to simply get our notification transmitted asychronously and
return as quickly as possible.  All the sychronous infrastructure to ensure
proper data-dependencies are met in the normal IO case are just unecessary
overhead for signalling.  This adds additional computational load on the
system, as well as latency to the signalling path.

Therefore, we provide a mechanism for registration of an in-kernel trigger
point that allows the VCPU to only require a very brief, lightweight
exit just long enough to signal an eventfd.  This also means that any
clients compatible with the eventfd interface (which includes userspace
and kernelspace equally well) can now register to be notified. The end
result should be a more flexible and higher performance notification API
for the backend KVM hypervisor and perhipheral components.

To test this theory, we built a test-harness called "doorbell".  This
module has a function called "doorbell_ring()" which simply increments a
counter for each time the doorbell is signaled.  It supports signalling
from either an eventfd, or an ioctl().

We then wired up two paths to the doorbell: One via QEMU via a registered
io region and through the doorbell ioctl().  The other is direct via
ioeventfd.

You can download this test harness here:

ftp://ftp.novell.com/dev/ghaskins/doorbell.tar.bz2

The measured results are as follows:

qemu-mmio:       110000 iops, 9.09us rtt
ioeventfd-mmio: 200100 iops, 5.00us rtt
ioeventfd-pio:  367300 iops, 2.72us rtt

I didn't measure qemu-pio, because I have to figure out how to register a
PIO region with qemu's device model, and I got lazy.  However, for now we
can extrapolate based on the data from the NULLIO runs of +2.56us for MMIO,
and -350ns for HC, we get:

qemu-pio:      153139 iops, 6.53us rtt
ioeventfd-hc: 412585 iops, 2.37us rtt

these are just for fun, for now, until I can gather more data.

Here is a graph for your convenience:

http://developer.novell.com/wiki/images/7/76/Iofd-chart.png

The conclusion to draw is that we save about 4us by skipping the userspace
hop.

Beth Kon e9f4275732 KVM: PIT support for HPET legacy mode
When kvm is in hpet_legacy_mode, the hpet is providing the timer
interrupt and the pit should not be. So in legacy mode, the pit timer
is destroyed, but the *state* of the pit is maintained. So if kvm or
the guest tries to modify the state of the pit, this modification is
accepted, *except* that the timer isn't actually started. When we exit
hpet_legacy_mode, the current state of the pit (which is up to date
since we've been accepting modifications) is used to restart the pit
timer.

The saved_mode code in kvm_pit_load_count temporarily changes mode to
0xff in order to destroy the timer, but then restores the actual
value, again maintaining "current" state of the pit for possible later
reenablement.

This reverts commit 6c20e1442bb1c62914bb85b7f4a38973d2a423ba.

To my understanding, it became obsolete with the advent of the more
robust check in mmu_alloc_roots (89da4ff17f). Moreover, it prevents
the conceptually safe pattern

 1. set sregs
 2. register mem-slots
 3. run vcpu

KVM will inject a #GP into the guest if that tries to access unhandled
MSRs. This will crash many guests. Although it would be the correct
way to actually handle these MSRs, we introduce a runtime switchable
module param called "ignore_msrs" (defaults to 0). If this is Y, unknown
MSR reads will return 0, while MSR writes are simply dropped. In both cases
we print a message to dmesg to inform the user about that.

You can change the behaviour at any time by saying:

facilities present on the native platform (such as the IDT on x86).
Virtual interrupts can come from a variety of sources (emulated devices,
pass-through devices, etc) but all must be injected to the guest via
the KVM infrastructure.  This patch adds a new mechanism to inject a specific
interrupt to a guest using a decoupled eventfd mechnanism:  Any legal signal
on the irqfd (using eventfd semantics from either userspace or kernel) will
translate into an injected interrupt in the guest at the next available
interrupt window.

physical cpu. For virtual interrupt notification there is no need to
wait on IPI receival, or to execute any function.

This is exactly what the reschedule IPI does, without the overhead
of function IPI. So use it instead of smp_call_function_single in
kvm_vcpu_kick.

Also change the "guest_mode" variable to a bit in vcpu->requests, and
use that to collapse multiple IPI's that would be issued between the
first one and zeroing of guest mode.

This allows kvm_vcpu_kick to called with interrupts disabled.

Marcelo Tosatti 59839dfff5 KVM: x86: check for cr3 validity in ioctl_set_sregs
Matt T. Yourst notes that kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_set_sregs lacks validity
checking for the new cr3 value:

"Userspace callers of KVM_SET_SREGS can pass a bogus value of cr3 to
the kernel. This will trigger a NULL pointer access in gfn_to_rmap()
when userspace next tries to call KVM_RUN on the affected VCPU and kvm
attempts to activate the new non-existent page table root.

This happens since kvm only validates that cr3 points to a valid guest
physical memory page when code *inside* the guest sets cr3. However, kvm
currently trusts the userspace caller (e.g. QEMU) on the host machine to
always supply a valid page table root, rather than properly validating
it along with the rest of the reloaded guest state."

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=893831&aid=2687641&group_id=180599

Check for a valid cr3 address in kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_set_sregs, triple

After discussion with Marcelo, we decided to rework device assignment framework

suggest to split it into a more elegant way:

1. Split host IRQ assign and guest IRQ assign. And userspace determine the
combination. Also discard msi2intx parameter, userspace can specific
KVM_DEV_IRQ_HOST_MSI | KVM_DEV_IRQ_GUEST_INTX in assigned_irq->flags to
enable MSI to INTx convertion.

2. Split assign IRQ and deassign IRQ. Import two new ioctls:
KVM_ASSIGN_DEV_IRQ and KVM_DEASSIGN_DEV_IRQ.

This patch also fixed the reversed _IOR vs _IOW in definition(by deprecated the
old interface).

Matt T. Yourst 2dea4c84bc KVM: x86: silence preempt warning on kvm_write_guest_time
This issue just appeared in kvm-84 when running on 2.6.28.7 (x86-64)
with PREEMPT enabled.

We're getting syslog warnings like this many (but not all) times qemu
tells KVM to run the VCPU:

BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code:

sys_ioctl+0x99/0xa0

As it turns out, the call trace is messed up due to gcc's inlining, but
I isolated the problem anyway: kvm_write_guest_time() is being used in a
non-thread-safe manner on preemptable kernels.

Basically kvm_write_guest_time()'s body needs to be surrounded by
preempt_disable() and preempt_enable(), since the kernel won't let us
query any per-CPU data (indirectly using smp_processor_id()) without
preemption disabled. The attached patch fixes this issue by disabling
preemption inside kvm_write_guest_time().

is harmless]

Avi Kivity a2edf57f51 KVM: Fix PDPTR reloading on CR4 writes
The processor is documented to reload the PDPTRs while in PAE mode if any
of the CR4 bits PSE, PGE, or PAE change.  Linux relies on this
behaviour when zapping the low mappings of PAE kernels during boot.

The code already handled changes to CR4.PAE; augment it to also notice changes
to PSE and PGE.

This triggered while booting an F11 PAE kernel; the futex initialization code
runs before any CR3 reloads and writes to a NULL pointer; the futex subsystem
ended up uninitialized, killing PI futexes and pulseaudio which uses them.

Avi Kivity 399ec807dd KVM: Userspace controlled irq routing
Currently KVM has a static routing from GSI numbers to interrupts (namely,
0-15 are mapped 1:1 to both PIC and IOAPIC, and 16:23 are mapped 1:1 to
the IOAPIC).  This is insufficient for several reasons:

- HPET requires non 1:1 mapping for the timer interrupt
- MSIs need a new method to assign interrupt numbers and dispatch them
- ACPI APIC mode needs to be able to reassign the PCI LINK interrupts to the
  ioapics

This patch implements an interrupt routing table (as a linked list, but this
can be easily changed) and a userspace interface to replace the table.  The
routing table is initialized according to the current hardwired mapping.

Jan Kiszka 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.

Jan Kiszka 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.

Alexander Graf d80174745b KVM: SVM: Only allow setting of EFER_SVME when CPUID SVM is set
Userspace has to tell the kernel module somehow that nested SVM should be used.
The easiest way that doesn't break anything I could think of is to implement

if (cpuid & svm)

else
    deny write to efer

Old userspaces mask the SVM capability bit, so they don't break.
In order to find out that the SVM capability is set, I had to split the

Sheng Yang ba4cef31d5 KVM: Fix racy in kvm_free_assigned_irq
In the past, kvm_get_kvm() and kvm_put_kvm() was called in assigned device irq
handler and interrupt_work, in order to prevent cancel_work_sync() in
kvm_free_assigned_irq got a illegal state when waiting for interrupt_work done.
But it's tricky and still got two problems:

1. A bug ignored two conditions that cancel_work_sync() would return true result
in a additional kvm_put_kvm().

2. If interrupt type is MSI, we would got a window between cancel_work_sync()
and free_irq(), which interrupt would be injected again...

This patch discard the reference count used for irq handler and interrupt_work,
and ensure the legal state by moving the free function at the very beginning of
kvm_destroy_vm(). And the patch fix the second bug by disable irq before
cancel_work_sync(), which may result in nested disable of irq but OK for we are
going to free it.

Jan Kiszka 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).

Marcelo Tosatti e48258009d KVM: PIC: enhance IPI avoidance
The PIC code makes little effort to avoid kvm_vcpu_kick(), resulting in
unnecessary guest exits in some conditions.

For example, if the timer interrupt is routed through the IOAPIC, IRR
for IRQ 0 will get set but not cleared, since the APIC is handling the
acks.

This means that everytime an interrupt < 16 is triggered, the priority
logic will find IRQ0 pending and send an IPI to vcpu0 (in case IRQ0 is
not masked, which is Linux's case).

Introduce a new variable isr_ack to represent the IRQ's for which the
guest has been signalled / cleared the ISR. Use it to avoid more than
one IPI per trigger-ack cycle, in addition to the avoidance when ISR is
set in get_priority().

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.

Noticed by Avi.

Marcelo Tosatti 29415c37f0 KVM: set debug registers after "schedulable" section
The vcpu thread can be preempted after the guest_debug_pre() callback,
resulting in invalid debug registers on the new vcpu.

Move it inside the non-preemptable section.

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.

Marcelo Tosatti 5fdbf9765b KVM: x86: accessors for guest registers
As suggested by Avi, introduce accessors to read/write guest registers.
This simplifies the ->cache_regs/->decache_regs interface, and improves
register caching which is important for VMX, where the cost of
vmcs_read/vmcs_write is significant.
