Commit fb341f57 removed the pte prefetch on guest invlpg, citing guest races. However, the SDM is adamant that prefetch is allowed: "The processor may create entries in paging-structure caches for translations required for prefetches and for accesses that are a result of speculative execution that would never actually occur in the executed code path." And, in fact, there was a race in the prefetch code: we picked up the pte without the mmu lock held, so an older invlpg could install the pte over a newer invlpg. Reinstate the prefetch logic, but this time note whether another invlpg has executed using a counter. If a race occured, do not install the pte.

The update_pte() path currently uses a nontrapping spte when a nonpresent (or nonaccessed) gpte is written. This is fine since at present it is only used on sync pages. However, on an unsync page this will cause an endless fault loop as the guest is under no obligation to invlpg a gpte that transitions from nonpresent to present. Needed for the next patch which reinstates update_pte() on invlpg. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>

Currently emulated atomic operations are immediately followed by a non-atomic operation, so that kvm_mmu_pte_write() can be invoked. This updates the mmu but undoes the whole point of doing things atomically. Fix by only performing the atomic operation and the mmu update, and avoiding the non-atomic write.

Once upon a time, locked operations were emulated while holding the mmu mutex. Since mmu pages were write protected, it was safe to emulate the writes in a non-atomic manner, since there could be no other writer, either in the guest or in the kernel. These days emulation takes place without holding the mmu spinlock, so the write could be preempted by an unshadowing event, which exposes the page to writes by the guest. This may cause corruption of guest page tables. Fix by using an atomic cmpxchg for these operations. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>

kvm_mmu_pte_write() reads guest ptes in two different occasions, both to allow a 32-bit pae guest to update a pte with 4-byte writes. Consolidate these into a single read, which also allows us to consolidate another read from an invlpg speculating a gpte into the shadow page table.

If no irq chip in kernel, ioctl KVM_IRQ_LINE will return -EFAULT. But I see in other place such as KVM_[GET|SET]IRQCHIP, -ENXIO is return. So this patch used -ENXIO instead of -EFAULT. Signed-off-by: Wei Yongjun <yjwei@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>

The ioctl KVM_IA64_VCPU_GET_STACK does not set the error code if copy_to_user() fail, and 0 will be return, we should use -EFAULT instead of 0 in this case, so this patch fixed it. Signed-off-by: Wei Yongjun <yjwei@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>

This patch optimizes the way the msrpm of the host and the guest are merged. The old code merged the 2 msrpm pages completly. This code needed to touch 24kb of memory for that operation. The optimized variant this patch introduces merges only the parts where the host msrpm may contain zero bits. This reduces the amount of memory which is touched to 48 bytes.

This patch introduces a list with all msrs a guest might have direct access to and changes the svm_vcpu_init_msrpm function to use this list. It also adds a check to set_msr_interception which triggers a warning if a developer changes a msr intercept that is not in the list.

The nested_svm_exit_handled_msr() returned an bool which is a bug. I worked by accident because the exected integer return values match with the true and false values.

If we have the following situation with nested svm: 1. Host KVM intercepts cr0 writes 2. Guest hypervisor intercepts only selective cr0 writes Then we get an cr0 write intercept which is handled on the host. But that intercepts may actually be a selective cr0 intercept for the guest. This patch checks for this condition and injects a selective cr0 intercept if needed. Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

The vcpu->arch.cr0 variable is already set in the architecture specific set_cr0 callbacks. There is no need to set it in the common code. This allows the architecture code to keep the old arch.cr0 value if it wants. This is required for nested svm to decide if a selective_cr0 exit needs to be injected.
