If a nested guest does a NM fault but its CR0 doesn't contain the TS flag (because it was already cleared by the guest with L1 aid) then we have to activate FPU ourselves in L0 and then continue to L2. If TS flag is set then we fallback on the previous behavior, forward the fault to L1 if it asked for. Signed-off-by:

When booting a vcpu using PSCI, make sure we start it with the endianness of the caller. Otherwise, secondaries can be pretty unhappy to execute a BE kernel in LE mode... This conforms to PSCI spec Rev B, 5.13.3. Acked-by:

Do the necessary byteswap when host and guest have different views of the universe. Actually, the only case we need to take care of is when the guest is BE. All the other cases are naturally handled. Also be careful about endianness when the data is being memcopy-ed from/to the run buffer. Acked-by:

I noticed that srcu_read_lock/unlock both have a memory barrier, so just by moving srcu_read_unlock earlier we can get rid of one call to smp_mb() using smp_mb__after_srcu_read_unlock instead. Unsurprisingly, the gain is small but measureable using the unit test microbenchmark: before vmcall in the ballpark of 1410 cycles after vmcall in the ballpark of 1360 cycles Signed-off-by:Michael S.

When determining the page size we could use to map with the IOMMU, the page size should also be aligned with the hva, not just the gfn. The gfn may not reflect the real alignment within the hugetlbfs file. Most of the time, this works fine. However, if the hugetlbfs file is backed by non-contiguous huge pages, a multi-huge page memslot starts at an unaligned offset within the hugetlbfs file, and the gfn is aligned with respect to the huge page size, kvm_host_page_size() will return the huge page size and we will use that to map with the IOMMU. When we later unpin that same memslot, the IOMMU returns the unmap size as the huge page size, and we happily unpin that many pfns in monotonically increasing order, not realizing we are spanning non-contiguous huge pages and partially unpin the wrong huge page. Ensure the IOMMU mapping page size is aligned with the hva corresponding to the gfn, which does reflect the alignment within the hugetlbfs file. Reviewed-by:

When I was looking at RHEL5.9's failure to start with unrestricted_guest=0/emulate_invalid_guest_state=1, I got it working with a slightly older tree than kvm.git. I now debugged the remaining failure, which was introduced by commit 660696d1 (KVM: X86 emulator: fix source operand decoding for 8bit mov[zs]x instructions, 2013-04-24) introduced a similar mis-emulation to the one in commit 8acb4207 (KVM: fix sil/dil/bpl/spl in the mod/rm fields, 2013-05-30). The incorrect decoding occurs in 8-bit movzx/movsx instructions whose 8-bit operand is sil/dil/bpl/spl. Needless to say, "movzbl %bpl, %eax" does occur in RHEL5.9's decompression prolog, just a handful of instructions before finally giving control to the decompressed vmlinux and getting out of the invalid guest state. Because OpMem8 bypasses decode_modrm, the same handling of the REX prefix must be applied to OpMem8. Reported-by:

The loop was always using 0 as the index. This means that any rubbish after the first element of the array went undetected. It seems reasonable to assume that no KVM userspace did that. Reviewed-by:

The KVM_SET_XCRS ioctl must accept anything that KVM_GET_XCRS could return. XCR0's bit 0 is always 1 in real processors with XSAVE, and KVM_GET_XCRS will always leave bit 0 set even if the emulated processor does not have XSAVE. So, KVM_SET_XCRS must ignore that bit when checking for attempts to enable unsupported save states. Reviewed-by:

We currently use some ad-hoc arch variables tied to legacy KVM device assignment to manage emulation of instructions that depend on whether non-coherent DMA is present. Create an interface for this, adapting legacy KVM device assignment and adding VFIO via the KVM-VFIO device. For now we assume that non-coherent DMA is possible any time we have a VFIO group. Eventually an interface can be developed as part of the VFIO external user interface to query the coherency of a group. Signed-off-by:

So far we've succeeded at making KVM and VFIO mostly unaware of each other, but areas are cropping up where a connection beyond eventfds and irqfds needs to be made. This patch introduces a KVM-VFIO device that is meant to be a gateway for such interaction. The user creates the device and can add and remove VFIO groups to it via file descriptors. When a group is added, KVM verifies the group is valid and gets a reference to it via the VFIO external user interface. Signed-off-by:

This basically came from the need to be able to boot 32-bit Atom SMP guests on an AMD host, i.e. a host which doesn't support MOVBE. As a matter of fact, qemu has since recently received MOVBE support but we cannot share that with kvm emulation and thus we have to do this in the host. We're waay faster in kvm anyway. :-) So, we piggyback on the #UD path and emulate the MOVBE functionality. With it, an 8-core SMP guest boots in under 6 seconds. Also, requesting MOVBE emulation needs to happen explicitly to work, i.e. qemu -cpu n270,+movbe... Just FYI, a fairly straight-forward boot of a MOVBE-enabled 3.9-rc6+ kernel in kvm executes MOVBE ~60K times. Signed-off-by:

On an (even slightly) oversubscribed system, spinlocks are quickly becoming a bottleneck, as some vcpus are spinning, waiting for a lock to be released, while the vcpu holding the lock may not be running at all. The solution is to trap blocking WFEs and tell KVM that we're now spinning. This ensures that other vpus will get a scheduling boost, allowing the lock to be released more quickly. Also, using CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_CPU_RELAX_INTERCEPT slightly improves the performance when the VM is severely overcommited. Acked-by:

In kvm_iommu_map_pages(), we need to know the page size via call kvm_host_page_size(). And it will check whether the target slot is valid before return the right page size. Currently, we will map the iommu pages when creating a new slot. But we call kvm_iommu_map_pages() during preparing the new slot. At that time, the new slot is not visible by domain(still in preparing). So we cannot get the right page size from kvm_host_page_size() and this will break the IOMMU super page logic. The solution is to map the iommu pages after we insert the new slot into domain. Signed-off-by:
