The IN instruction is not be affected by REP-prefix as INS is. Therefore, the emulation should ignore the REP prefix as well. The current emulator implementation tries to perform writeback when IN instruction with REP-prefix is emulated. This causes it to perform wrong memory write or spurious #GP exception to be injected to the guest. Signed-off-by:

According to Intel specifications, PAE and non-PAE does not have any reserved bits. In long-mode, regardless to PCIDE, only the high bits (above the physical address) are reserved. Signed-off-by:

If a guest enables a performance counter but does not enable PMI, the hypervisor currently does not reprogram the performance counter once it overflows. As a result the host performance counter is kept with the original sampling period which was configured according to the value of the guest's counter when the counter was enabled. Such behaviour can cause very bad consequences. The most distrubing one can cause the guest not to make any progress at all, and keep exiting due to host PMI before any guest instructions is exeucted. This situation occurs when the performance counter holds a very high value when the guest enables the performance counter. As a result the host's sampling period is configured to be very short. The host then never reconfigures the sampling period and get stuck at entry->PMI->exit loop. We encountered such a scenario in our experiments. The solution is to reprogram the counter even if the guest does not use PMI. Signed-off-by:

This feature emulates the "Acknowledge interrupt on exit" behavior. We can safely emulate it for L1 to run L2 even if L0 itself has it disabled (to run L1). Signed-off-by:

For single context invalidation, we fall through to global invalidation in handle_invept() except for one case - when the operand supplied by L1 is different from what we have in vmcs12. However, typically hypervisors will only call invept for the currently loaded eptp, so the condition will never be true. Signed-off-by:

Merge tag 'kvm-s390-20140422' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvms390/linux into queue Lazy storage key handling ------------------------- Linux does not use the ACC and F bits of the storage key. Newer Linux versions also do not use the storage keys for dirty and reference tracking. We can optimize the guest handling for those guests for faults as well as page-in and page-out by simply not caring about the guest visible storage key. We trap guest storage key instruction to enable those keys only on demand. Migration bitmap Until now s390 never provided a proper dirty bitmap. Let's provide a proper migration bitmap for s390. We also change the user dirty tracking to a fault based mechanism. This makes the host completely independent from the storage keys. Long term this will allow us to back guest memory with large pages. per-VM device attributes ------------------------ To avoid the introduction of new ioctls, let's provide the attribute semanantic also on the VM-"device". Userspace controlled CMMA ------------------------- The CMMA assist is changed from "always on" to "on if requested" via per-VM device attributes. In addition a callback to reset all usage states is provided. Proper guest DAT handling for intercepts ---------------------------------------- While instructions handled by SIE take care of all addressing aspects, KVM/s390 currently does not care about guest address translation of intercepts. This worked out fine, because - the s390 Linux kernel has a 1:1 mapping between kernel virtual<->real for all pages up to memory size - intercepts happen only for a small amount of cases - all of these intercepts happen to be in the kernel text for current distros Of course we need to be better for other intercepts, kernel modules etc. We provide the infrastructure and rework all in-kernel intercepts to work on logical addresses (paging etc) instead of real ones. The code has been running internally for several months now, so it is time for going public. GDB support ----------- We provide breakpoints, single stepping and watchpoints. Fixes/Cleanups -------------- - Improve program check delivery - Factor out the handling of transactional memory on program checks - Use the existing define __LC_PGM_TDB - Several cleanups in the lowcore structure - Documentation NOTES ----- - All patches touching base s390 are either ACKed or written by the s390 maintainers - One base KVM patch "KVM: add kvm_is_error_gpa() helper" - One patch introduces the notion of VM device attributes Signed-off-by:

When a guest is single-stepped, we want to disable timer interrupts. Otherwise, the guest will continuously execute the external interrupt handler and make debugging of code where timer interrupts are enabled almost impossible. The delivery of timer interrupts can be enforced in such sections by setting a breakpoint and continuing execution. In order to disable timer interrupts, they are disabled in the control register of the guest just before SIE entry and are suppressed in the interrupt check/delivery methods. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds support to debug the guest using the PER facility on s390. Single-stepping, hardware breakpoints and hardware watchpoints are supported. In order to use the PER facility of the guest without it noticing it, the control registers of the guest have to be patched and access to them has to be intercepted(stctl, stctg, lctl, lctlg). All PER program interrupts have to be intercepted and only the relevant PER interrupts for the guest have to be given back. Special care has to be taken about repeated exits on the same hardware breakpoint. The intervention of the host in the guests PER configuration is not fully transparent. PER instruction nullification can not be used by the guest and too many storage alteration events may be reported to the guest (if it is activated for special address ranges only) when the host concurrently debugging it.

When a program interrupt was to be delivered until now, no program interrupt parameters were stored in the low-core of the target vcpu. This patch enables the delivery of those program interrupt parameters, takes care of concurrent PER events which can be injected in addition to any program interrupt and uses the correct instruction length code (depending on the interception code) for the injection of program interrupts.

Convert handle_tpi() to new guest access functions. The code now sets up a structure which is copied with a single call to guest space instead of issuing several separate guest access calls. This is necessary since the to be copied data may cross a page boundary. If a protection exception happens while accessing any of the pages, the instruction is suppressed and may not have modified any memory contents. Signed-off-by:
