Except for RSP and RIP, which are held in VMX's VMCS, GPRs are always treated "available and dirtly" on both VMX and SVM, i.e. are unconditionally loaded/saved immediately before/after VM-Enter/VM-Exit. Eliminating the unnecessary caching code reduces the size of KVM by a non-trivial amount, much of which comes from the most common code paths. E.g. on x86_64, kvm_emulate_cpuid() is reduced from 342 to 182 bytes and kvm_emulate_hypercall() from 1362 to 1143, with the total size of KVM dropping by ~1000 bytes. With CONFIG_RETPOLINE=y, the numbers are even more pronounced, e.g.: 353->182, 1418->1172 and well over 2000 bytes. Signed-off-by:

pfn_valid check is not sufficient because it only checks if a page has a struct page or not, if "mem=" was passed to the kernel some valid pages won't have a struct page. This means that if guests were assigned valid memory that lies after the mem= boundary it will be passed uncached to the guest no matter what the guest caching attributes are for this memory. Introduce a new function e820__mapped_raw_any which is equivalent to e820__mapped_any but uses the original e820 unmodified and use it to identify real *RAM*. Signed-off-by:

Use kvm_vcpu_map when mapping the posted interrupt descriptor table since using kvm_vcpu_gpa_to_page() and kmap() will only work for guest memory that has a "struct page". One additional semantic change is that the virtual host mapping lifecycle has changed a bit. It now has the same lifetime of the pinning of the interrupt descriptor table page on the host side.

In KVM, specially for nested guests, there is a dominant pattern of: => map guest memory -> do_something -> unmap guest memory In addition to all this unnecessarily noise in the code due to boiler plate code, most of the time the mapping function does not properly handle memory that is not backed by "struct page". This new guest mapping API encapsulate most of this boiler plate code and also handles guest memory that is not backed by "struct page". The current implementation of this API is using memremap for memory that is not backed by a "struct page" which would lead to a huge slow-down if it was used for high-frequency mapping operations. The API does not have any effect on current setups where guest memory is backed by a "struct page". Further patches are going to also introduce a pfn-cache which would significantly improve the performance of the memremap case. Signed-off-by:

cmpxchg_gpte() calls get_user_pages_fast() to retrieve the number of pages and the respective struct page to map in the kernel virtual address space. This doesn't work if get_user_pages_fast() is invoked with a userspace virtual address that's backed by PFNs outside of kernel reach (e.g., when limiting the kernel memory with mem= in the command line and using /dev/mem to map memory). If get_user_pages_fast() fails, look up the VMA that back the userspace virtual address, compute the PFN and the physical address, and map it in the kernel virtual address space with memremap().

Update the PML table without mapping and unmapping the page. This also avoids using kvm_vcpu_gpa_to_page(..) which assumes that there is a "struct page" for guest memory. As a side-effect of using kvm_write_guest_page the page is also properly marked as dirty. Signed-off-by:

The hardware configuration register has some useful bits which can be used by guests. Implement McStatusWrEn which can be used by guests when injecting MCEs with the in-kernel mce-inject module. For that, we need to set bit 18 - McStatusWrEn - first, before writing the MCi_STATUS registers (otherwise we #GP). Add the required machinery to do so. Signed-off-by:

The capabilities header depends on asm/vmx.h but doesn't explicitly include said file.

If a memory slot's size is not a multiple of 64 pages (256K), then the KVM_CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG API is unusable: clearing the final 64 pages either requires the requested page range to go beyond memslot->npages, or requires log->num_pages to be unaligned, and kvm_clear_dirty_log_protect requires log->num_pages to be both in range and aligned. To allow this case, allow log->num_pages not to be a multiple of 64 if it ends exactly on the last page of the slot. Reported-by:

Checking for a pending non-periodic interrupt in start_hv_timer() leads to restart_apic_timer() making an unnecessary call to start_sw_timer() due to start_hv_timer() returning false. Alternatively, start_hv_timer() could return %true when there is a pending non-periodic interrupt, but that approach is less intuitive, i.e. would require a beefy comment to explain an otherwise simple check.

Refactor kvm_x86_ops->set_hv_timer to use an explicit parameter for stating that the timer has expired. Overloading the return value is unnecessarily clever, e.g. can lead to confusion over the proper return value from start_hv_timer() when r==1.

Explicitly call cancel_hv_timer() instead of returning %false to coerce restart_apic_timer() into canceling it by way of start_sw_timer(). Functionally, the existing code is correct in the sense that it doesn't doing anything visibily wrong, e.g. generate spurious interrupts or miss an interrupt. But it's extremely confusing and inefficient, e.g. there are multiple extraneous calls to apic_timer_expired() that effectively get dropped due to @timer_pending being %true.

Since commits 668fffa3 ("kvm: better MWAIT emulation for guestsâ€) and 4d5422ce ("KVM: X86: Provide a capability to disable MWAIT interceptsâ€), KVM was modified to allow an admin to configure certain guests to execute MONITOR/MWAIT inside guest without being intercepted by host. This is useful in case admin wishes to allocate a dedicated logical processor for each vCPU thread. Thus, making it safe for guest to completely control the power-state of the logical processor. The ability to use this new KVM capability was introduced to QEMU by commits 6f131f13e68d ("kvm: support -overcommit cpu-pm=on|offâ€) and 2266d4431132 ("i386/cpu: make -cpu host support monitor/mwaitâ€). However, exposing MONITOR/MWAIT to a Linux guest may cause it's intel_idle kernel module to execute c1e_promotion_disable() which will attempt to RDMSR/WRMSR from/to MSR_IA32_POWER_CTL to manipulate the "C1E Enable" bit. This behaviour was introduced by commit 32e95180 ("intel_idle: export both C1 and C1Eâ€). Becuase KVM doesn't emulate this MSR, running KVM with ignore_msrs=0 will cause the above guest behaviour to raise a #GP which will cause guest to kernel panic. Therefore, add support for nop emulation of MSR_IA32_POWER_CTL to avoid #GP in guest in this scenario. Future commits can optimise emulation further by reflecting guest MSR changes to host MSR to provide guest with the ability to fine-tune the dedicated logical processor power-state. Reviewed-by:
