The current code tries to optimize the setting of KVM_REQ_PENDING_TIMER but used atomic_inc_and_test - which always returns true unless pending had the invalid value of -1 on entry. This patch drops the test part preserving the original semantic but expressing it less confusingly. Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

Minor issue that likely had no practical relevance: the kvm timer function so far incremented the pending counter and then may reset it again to 1 in case reinjection was disabled. This opened a small racy window with the corresponding VCPU loop that may have happened to run on another (real) CPU and already consumed the value. Fix it by skipping the incrementation in case pending is already > 0. This opens a different race windows, but may only rarely cause lost events in case we do not care about them anyway (!reinject).

Most of the time IRR is empty, so instead of scanning the whole IRR on each VM entry keep a variable that tells us if IRR is not empty. IRR will have to be scanned twice on each IRQ delivery, but this is much more rare than VM entry. Signed-off-by: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

The performance counter MSRs are different for AMD and Intel CPUs and they are chosen mainly by the CPUID vendor string. This patch catches writes to all addresses (regardless of VMX/SVM path) and handles them in the generic MSR handler routine. Writing a 0 into the event select register is something we perfectly emulate ;-), so don't print out a warning to dmesg in this case. This fixes booting a 64bit Windows guest with an AMD CPUID on an Intel host. Signed-off-by: Andre Przywara <andre.przywara@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

- Fail early in case gfn_to_pfn returns is_error_pfn. - For the pre pte write case, avoid spurious "gva is valid but spte is notrap" messages (the emulation code does the guest write first, so this particular case is OK).

- Unsync pages contain writable sptes in the rmap. - rmaps do not exclusively contain writable sptes anymore. Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

Under testing, count_writable_mappings returns a value that is 2 integers larger than what count_rmaps returns. Suspicion is that either of the two functions is counting a duplicate (either positively or negatively). Modifying check_writable_mappings_rmap to check for rmap existance on all present MMU pages fails to trigger an error, which should keep Avi happy. Also introduce mmu_spte_walk to invoke a callback on all present sptes visible to the current vcpu, might be useful in the future.

We use shadow_pte and spte inconsistently, switch to the shorter spelling. Rename set_shadow_pte() to __set_spte() to avoid a conflict with the existing set_spte(), and to indicate its lowlevelness. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

is_dirty_pte() is used on guest ptes, not shadow ptes, so it needs to avoid shadow_dirty_mask and use PT_DIRTY_MASK instead. Misdetecting dirty pages could lead to unnecessarily setting the dirty bit under EPT. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

"Unrestricted Guest" feature is added in the VMX specification. Intel Westmere and onwards processors will support this feature. It allows kvm guests to run real mode and unpaged mode code natively in the VMX mode when EPT is turned on. With the unrestricted guest there is no need to emulate the guest real mode code in the vm86 container or in the emulator. Also the guest big real mode code works like native. The attached patch enhances KVM to use the unrestricted guest feature if available on the processor. It also adds a new kernel/module parameter to disable the unrestricted guest feature at the boot time.

Instead of checking whether we'll wrap around, calculate how many entries are available, and check whether we have enough (just one) for the pending mmio. By itself, this doesn't change anything, but it paves the way for making this function lockless. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

Instead of reading the PDPTRs from memory after every exit (which is slow and wrong, as the PDPTRs are stored on the cpu), sync the PDPTRs from memory to the VMCS before entry, and from the VMCS to memory after exit. Do the same for cr3. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
