      KVM: rearrange injection cancelling code · d905c069
      Michael S. Tsirkin authored 
      Each time we need to cancel injection we invoke same code
(cancel_injection callback).  Move it towards the end of function using
the familiar goto on error pattern.

Will make it easier to do more cleanups for PV EOI.

      KVM: only sync when attention bits set · 5cfb1d5a
      Michael S. Tsirkin authored 
      Commit eb0dc6d0368072236dcd086d7fdc17fd3c4574d4 introduced apic
attention bitmask but kvm still syncs lapic unconditionally.
As that commit suggested and in anticipation of adding more attention
bits, only sync lapic if(apic_attention).

      KVM: eoi msi documentation · c1af87dc
      Michael S. Tsirkin authored 
      Document the new EOI MSR. Couldn't decide whether this change belongs
conceptually on guest or host side, so a separate patch.

      x86, bitops: note on __test_and_clear_bit atomicity · d0a69d63
      Michael S. Tsirkin authored 
      __test_and_clear_bit is actually atomic with respect
to the local CPU. Add a note saying that KVM on x86
relies on this behaviour so people don't accidentaly break it.
Also warn not to rely on this in portable code.

      KVM guest: guest side for eoi avoidance · ab9cf499
      Michael S. Tsirkin authored 
      The idea is simple: there's a bit, per APIC, in guest memory,
that tells the guest that it does not need EOI.
Guest tests it using a single est and clear operation - this is
necessary so that host can detect interrupt nesting - and if set, it can
skip the EOI MSR.

I run a simple microbenchmark to show exit reduction
(note: for testing, need to apply follow-up patch
'kvm: host side for eoi optimization' + a qemu patch
 I posted separately, on host):

      KVM: optimize ISR lookups · 8680b94b
      Michael S. Tsirkin authored 
      We perform ISR lookups twice: during interrupt
injection and on EOI. Typical workloads only have
a single bit set there. So we can avoid ISR scans by
1. counting bits as we set/clear them in ISR
2. on set, caching the injected vector number
3. on clear, invalidating the cache

The real purpose of this is enabling PV EOI
which needs to quickly validate the vector.
But non PV guests also benefit: with this patch,
and without interrupt nesting, apic_find_highest_isr
will always return immediately without scanning ISR.

                iter->desc = NULL;
                return (u64 *)rmap;
        }

        iter->desc = (struct pte_list_desc *)(rmap & ~1ul);
        iter->pos = 0;
        return iter->desc->sptes[iter->pos];
}

will not initialize iter.desc, but the compiler isn't
smart enough to see that

        for (sptep = rmap_get_first(*rmapp, &iter); sptep;
             sptep = rmap_get_next(&iter)) {

will immediately exit in this case.
I checked by adding
        if (!*rmapp)
                goto out;
on top which is clearly equivalent but disables the warning.

This patch uses uninitialized_var to disable the warning without
increasing code size.

      KVM: Cleanup the kvm_print functions and introduce pr_XX wrappers · a737f256
      Christoffer Dall authored 
      Introduces a couple of print functions, which are essentially wrappers
around standard printk functions, with a KVM: prefix.

Functions introduced or modified are:
 - kvm_err(fmt, ...)
 - kvm_info(fmt, ...)
 - kvm_debug(fmt, ...)
 - kvm_pr_unimpl(fmt, ...)
 - pr_unimpl(vcpu, fmt, ...) -> vcpu_unimpl(vcpu, fmt, ...)
