lpage_info is created for each large level even when the memory slot is
not for RAM. This means that when we add one slot for a PCI device, we
end up allocating at least KVM_NR_PAGE_SIZES - 1 pages by vmalloc().
To make things worse, there is an increasing number of devices which
would result in more pages being wasted this way.
This patch mitigates this problem by using kvm_kvzalloc().

Using RCU for lockless shadow walking can increase the amount of memory
in use by the system, since RCU grace periods are unpredictable. We also
have an unconditional write to a shared variable (reader_counter), which
isn't good for scaling.
Replace that with a scheme similar to x86's get_user_pages_fast(): disable
interrupts during lockless shadow walk to force the freer
(kvm_mmu_commit_zap_page()) to wait for the TLB flush IPI to find the
processor with interrupts enabled.
We also add a new vcpu->mode, READING_SHADOW_PAGE_TABLES, to prevent
kvm_flush_remote_tlbs() from avoiding the IPI.

Currently, MSI messages can only be injected to in-kernel irqchips by
defining a corresponding IRQ route for each message. This is not only
unhandy if the MSI messages are generated "on the fly" by user space,
IRQ routes are a limited resource that user space has to manage
carefully.
By providing a direct injection path, we can both avoid using up limited
resources and simplify the necessary steps for user land.

We've been adding new mappings, but not destroying old mappings.
This can lead to a page leak as pages are pinned using
get_user_pages, but only unpinned with put_page if they still
exist in the memslots list on vm shutdown. A memslot that is
destroyed while an iommu domain is enabled for the guest will
therefore result in an elevated page reference count that is
never cleared.
Additionally, without this fix, the iommu is only programmed
with the first translation for a gpa. This can result in
peer-to-peer errors if a mapping is destroyed and replaced by a
new mapping at the same gpa as the iommu will still be pointing
to the original, pinned memory address.

kvm_io_bus devices are used for ioevent, pit, pic, ioapic,
coalesced_mmio.
Currently Qemu only emulates one PCI bus, it contains 32 slots,
one slot contains 8 functions, maximum of supported PCI devices:
1 * 32 * 8 = 256. One virtio-blk takes one iobus device,
one virtio-net(vhost=on) takes two iobus devices.
The maximum of coalesced mmio zone is 100, each zone

PCI 2.3 allows to generically disable IRQ sources at device level. This
enables us to share legacy IRQs of such devices with other host devices
when passing them to a guest.
The new IRQ sharing feature introduced here is optional, user space has
to request it explicitly. Moreover, user space can inform us about its
view of PCI_COMMAND_INTX_DISABLE so that we can avoid unmasking the
interrupt and signaling it if the guest masked it via the virtualized

If some vcpus are created before KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, then
irqchip_in_kernel() and vcpu->arch.apic will be inconsistent, leading
to potential NULL pointer dereferences.
Fix by:
- ensuring that no vcpus are installed when KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP is called
- ensuring that a vcpu has an apic if it is installed after KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP

This moves __gfn_to_memslot() and search_memslots() from kvm_main.c to
kvm_host.h to reduce the code duplication caused by the need for
non-modular code in arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_hv_rm_mmu.c to call
gfn_to_memslot() in real mode.
Rather than putting gfn_to_memslot() itself in a header, which would
lead to increased code size, this puts __gfn_to_memslot() in a header.
Then, the non-modular uses of gfn_to_memslot() are changed to call
__gfn_to_memslot() instead. This way there is only one place in the
source code that needs to be changed should the gfn_to_memslot()
implementation need to be modified.
On powerpc, the Book3S HV style of KVM has code that is called from
real mode which needs to call gfn_to_memslot() and thus needs this.
(Module code is allocated in the vmalloc region, which can't be
accessed in real mode.)
With this, we can remove builtin_gfn_to_memslot() from book3s_hv_rm_mmu.c.

This patch adds a new vcpu->requests bit, KVM_REQ_IMMEDIATE_EXIT.
This bit requests that when next entering the guest, we should run it only
for as little as possible, and exit again.
We use this new option in nested VMX: When L1 launches L2, but L0 wishes L1
to continue running so it can inject an event to it, we unfortunately cannot
just pretend to have run L2 for a little while - We must really launch L2,
otherwise certain one-off vmcs12 parameters (namely, L1 injection into L2)
will be lost. So the existing code runs L2 in this case.
But L2 could potentially run for a long time until it exits, and the
injection into L1 will be delayed. The new KVM_REQ_IMMEDIATE_EXIT allows us
to request that L2 will be entered, as necessary, but will exit as soon as
possible after entry.
Our implementation of this request uses smp_send_reschedule() to send a
self-IPI, with interrupts disabled. The interrupts remain disabled until the
guest is entered, and then, after the entry is complete (often including
processing an injection and jumping to the relevant handler), the physical
interrupt is noticed and causes an exit.
On recent Intel processors, we could have achieved the same goal by using
MTF instead of a self-IPI. Another technique worth considering in the future
is to use VM_EXIT_ACK_INTR_ON_EXIT and a highest-priority vector IPI - to
slightly improve performance by avoiding the useless interrupt handler
which ends up being called when smp_send_reschedule() is used.

If simultaneous NMIs happen, we're supposed to queue the second

the second into the first.
Fix by using a counter for pending NMIs instead of a bool; since
the counter limit depends on whether the processor is currently
in an NMI handler, which can only be checked in vcpu context
(via the NMI mask), we add a new KVM_REQ_NMI to request recalculation
of the counter.

Currently the method of dealing with an IO operation on a bus (PIO/MMIO)
is to call the read or write callback for each device registered
on the bus until we find a device which handles it.
Since the number of devices on a bus can be significant due to ioeventfds
and coalesced MMIO zones, this leads to a lot of overhead on each IO
operation.
Instead of registering devices, we now register ranges which points to
a device. Lookup is done using an efficient bsearch instead of a linear
search.
Performance test was conducted by comparing exit count per second with
200 ioeventfds created on one byte and the guest is trying to access a
different byte continuously (triggering usermode exits).
Before the patch the guest has achieved 259k exits per second, after the
patch the guest does 274k exits per second.

To implement steal time, we need the hypervisor to pass the guest
information about how much time was spent running other processes
outside the VM, while the vcpu had meaningful work to do - halt
time does not count.
This information is acquired through the run_delay field of
delayacct/schedstats infrastructure, that counts time spent in a
runqueue but not running.
Steal time is a per-cpu information, so the traditional MSR-based
infrastructure is used. A new msr, KVM_MSR_STEAL_TIME, holds the
memory area address containing information about steal time
This patch contains the hypervisor part of the steal time infrasructure,
and can be backported independently of the guest portion.

The interrupt injection logic looks something like
if an nmi is pending, and nmi injection allowed
inject nmi
if an nmi is pending
request exit on nmi window
the problem is that "nmi is pending" can be set asynchronously by
the PIT; if it happens to fire between the two if statements, we
will request an nmi window even though nmi injection is allowed. On
SVM, this has disasterous results, since it causes eflags.TF to be
set in random guest code.
The fix is simple; make nmi_pending synchronous using the standard
vcpu->requests mechanism; this ensures the code above is completely

Store irq routing table pointer in the irqfd object,
and use that to inject MSI directly without bouncing out to
a kernel thread.
While we touch this structure, rearrange irqfd fields to make fastpath
better packed for better cache utilization.
This also adds some comments about locking rules and rcu usage in code.
Some notes on the design:
- Use pointer into the rt instead of copying an entry,
to make it possible to use rcu, thus side-stepping
locking complexities. We also save some memory this way.
- Old workqueue code is still used for level irqs.
I don't think we DTRT with level anyway, however,
it seems easier to keep the code around as
it has been thought through and debugged, and fix level later than
rip out and re-instate it later.

This improves the IRQ forwarding for assigned devices: By using the
kernel's threaded IRQ scheme, we can get rid of the latency-prone work
queue and simplify the code in the same run.
Moreover, we no longer have to hold assigned_dev_lock while raising the
guest IRQ, which can be a lenghty operation as we may have to iterate
over all VCPUs. The lock is now only used for synchronizing masking vs.
unmasking of INTx-type IRQs, thus is renames to intx_lock.

Currently x86's kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log() needs to allocate a bitmap by
vmalloc() which will be used in the next logging and this has been causing
bad effect to VGA and live-migration: vmalloc() consumes extra systime,
triggers tlb flush, etc.
This patch resolves this issue by pre-allocating one more bitmap and switching
between two bitmaps during dirty logging.
Performance improvement:
I measured performance for the case of VGA update by trace-cmd.
The result was 1.5 times faster than the original one.
In the case of live migration, the improvement ratio depends on the workload
and the guest memory size. In general, the larger the memory size is the more
benefits we get.
Note:
This does not change other architectures's logic but the allocation size
becomes twice. This will increase the actual memory consumption only when
the new size changes the number of pages allocated by vmalloc().

In common cases, guest SRAO MCE will cause corresponding poisoned page
be un-mapped and SIGBUS be sent to QEMU-KVM, then QEMU-KVM will relay
the MCE to guest OS.
But it is reported that if the poisoned page is accessed in guest
after unmapping and before MCE is relayed to guest OS, userspace will
be killed.
The reason is as follows. Because poisoned page has been un-mapped,
guest access will cause guest exit and kvm_mmu_page_fault will be
called. kvm_mmu_page_fault can not get the poisoned page for fault
address, so kernel and user space MMIO processing is tried in turn. In
user MMIO processing, poisoned page is accessed again, then userspace
is killed by force_sig_info.
To fix the bug, kvm_mmu_page_fault send HWPOISON signal to QEMU-KVM
and do not try kernel and user space MMIO processing for poisoned
page.

X86 CPUs need to have some magic happening to enable the virtualization
extensions on them. This magic can result in unpleasant results for
users, like blocking other VMMs from working (vmx) or using invalid TLB
entries (svm).
Currently KVM activates virtualization when the respective kernel module
is loaded. This blocks us from autoloading KVM modules without breaking
other VMMs.
To circumvent this problem at least a bit, this patch introduces on
demand activation of virtualization. This means, that instead
virtualization is enabled on creation of the first virtual machine
and disabled on destruction of the last one.
So using this, KVM can be easily autoloaded, while keeping other
hypervisors usable.

ioeventfd is a mechanism to register PIO/MMIO regions to trigger an eventfd
signal when written to by a guest. Host userspace can register any
arbitrary IO address with a corresponding eventfd and then pass the eventfd
to a specific end-point of interest for handling.
Normal IO requires a blocking round-trip since the operation may cause
side-effects in the emulated model or may return data to the caller.
Therefore, an IO in KVM traps from the guest to the host, causes a VMX/SVM
"heavy-weight" exit back to userspace, and is ultimately serviced by qemu's
device model synchronously before returning control back to the vcpu.
However, there is a subclass of IO which acts purely as a trigger for
other IO (such as to kick off an out-of-band DMA request, etc). For these
patterns, the synchronous call is particularly expensive since we really
only want to simply get our notification transmitted asychronously and
return as quickly as possible. All the sychronous infrastructure to ensure
proper data-dependencies are met in the normal IO case are just unecessary
overhead for signalling. This adds additional computational load on the
system, as well as latency to the signalling path.
Therefore, we provide a mechanism for registration of an in-kernel trigger
point that allows the VCPU to only require a very brief, lightweight
exit just long enough to signal an eventfd. This also means that any
clients compatible with the eventfd interface (which includes userspace
and kernelspace equally well) can now register to be notified. The end
result should be a more flexible and higher performance notification API
for the backend KVM hypervisor and perhipheral components.
To test this theory, we built a test-harness called "doorbell". This
module has a function called "doorbell_ring()" which simply increments a
counter for each time the doorbell is signaled. It supports signalling
from either an eventfd, or an ioctl().
We then wired up two paths to the doorbell: One via QEMU via a registered
io region and through the doorbell ioctl(). The other is direct via
ioeventfd.
You can download this test harness here:
ftp://ftp.novell.com/dev/ghaskins/doorbell.tar.bz2
The measured results are as follows:
qemu-mmio: 110000 iops, 9.09us rtt
ioeventfd-mmio: 200100 iops, 5.00us rtt
ioeventfd-pio: 367300 iops, 2.72us rtt
I didn't measure qemu-pio, because I have to figure out how to register a
PIO region with qemu's device model, and I got lazy. However, for now we
can extrapolate based on the data from the NULLIO runs of +2.56us for MMIO,
and -350ns for HC, we get:
qemu-pio: 153139 iops, 6.53us rtt
ioeventfd-hc: 412585 iops, 2.37us rtt
these are just for fun, for now, until I can gather more data.
Here is a graph for your convenience:
http://developer.novell.com/wiki/images/7/76/Iofd-chart.png
The conclusion to draw is that we save about 4us by skipping the userspace
hop.

Virtual interrupts can come from a variety of sources (emulated devices,

the KVM infrastructure. This patch adds a new mechanism to inject a specific
interrupt to a guest using a decoupled eventfd mechnanism: Any legal signal

If an interrupt triggers before the host->dev_irq_disabled assignment,
it will disable the interrupt and set dev->host_irq_disabled to true.
On return to kvm_assigned_dev_ack_irq, dev->host_irq_disabled is set to
false, and the next kvm_assigned_dev_ack_irq call will fail to reenable

KVM uses a function call IPI to cause the exit of a guest running on a

This is exactly what the reschedule IPI does, without the overhead
of function IPI. So use it instead of smp_call_function_single in

Also change the "guest_mode" variable to a bit in vcpu->requests, and
use that to collapse multiple IPI's that would be issued between the
first one and zeroing of guest mode.

After discussion with Marcelo, we decided to rework device assignment framework
together. The old problems are kernel logic is unnecessary complex. So Marcelo
suggest to split it into a more elegant way:
1. Split host IRQ assign and guest IRQ assign. And userspace determine the
combination. Also discard msi2intx parameter, userspace can specific
KVM_DEV_IRQ_HOST_MSI | KVM_DEV_IRQ_GUEST_INTX in assigned_irq->flags to
enable MSI to INTx convertion.
2. Split assign IRQ and deassign IRQ. Import two new ioctls:
KVM_ASSIGN_DEV_IRQ and KVM_DEASSIGN_DEV_IRQ.
This patch also fixed the reversed _IOR vs _IOW in definition(by deprecated the
old interface).

* handle kvmclock update using a new request flag, thus checking

* use a cpufreq notifier to track frequency changes and force

Currently KVM has a static routing from GSI numbers to interrupts (namely,
0-15 are mapped 1:1 to both PIC and IOAPIC, and 16:23 are mapped 1:1 to
the IOAPIC). This is insufficient for several reasons:
- HPET requires non 1:1 mapping for the timer interrupt
- MSIs need a new method to assign interrupt numbers and dispatch them
- ACPI APIC mode needs to be able to reassign the PCI LINK interrupts to the
ioapics
This patch implements an interrupt routing table (as a linked list, but this
can be easily changed) and a userspace interface to replace the table. The
routing table is initialized according to the current hardwired mapping.

This rips out the support for KVM_DEBUG_GUEST and introduces a new IOCTL
instead: KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG. The IOCTL payload consists of a generic
part, controlling the "main switch" and the single-step feature. The
arch specific part adds an x86 interface for intercepting both types of
debug exceptions separately and re-injecting them when the host was not
interested. Moveover, the foundation for guest debugging via debug
registers is layed.
To signal breakpoint events properly back to userland, an arch-specific
data block is now returned along KVM_EXIT_DEBUG. For x86, the arch block
contains the PC, the debug exception, and relevant debug registers to
tell debug events properly apart.
The availability of this new interface is signaled by
KVM_CAP_SET_GUEST_DEBUG. Empty stubs for not yet supported archs are
provided.
Note that both SVM and VTX are supported, but only the latter was tested
yet. Based on the experience with all those VTX corner case, I would be
fairly surprised if SVM will work out of the box.

If an assigned device shares a guest irq with an emulated
device then we currently interpret an ack generated by the
emulated device as originating from the assigned device
leading to e.g. "Unbalanced enable for IRQ 4347" from the
enable_irq() in kvm_assigned_dev_ack_irq().
The fix is fairly simple - don't enable the physical device
irq unless it was previously disabled.
Of course, this can still lead to a situation where a
non-assigned device ACK can cause the physical device irq to
be reenabled before the device was serviced. However, being
level sensitive, the interrupt will merely be regenerated.

This patch adds all needed structures to coalesce MMIOs.
Until an architecture uses it, it is not compiled.
Coalesced MMIO introduces two ioctl() to define where are the MMIO zones that
can be coalesced:
- KVM_REGISTER_COALESCED_MMIO registers a coalesced MMIO zone.
It requests one parameter (struct kvm_coalesced_mmio_zone) which defines
a memory area where MMIOs can be coalesced until the next switch to
user space. The maximum number of MMIO zones is KVM_COALESCED_MMIO_ZONE_MAX.
- KVM_UNREGISTER_COALESCED_MMIO cancels all registered zones inside
the given bounds (bounds are also given by struct kvm_coalesced_mmio_zone).
The userspace client can check kernel coalesced MMIO availability by asking
ioctl(KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION) for the KVM_CAP_COALESCED_MMIO capability.
The ioctl() call to KVM_CAP_COALESCED_MMIO will return 0 if not supported,
or the page offset where will be stored the ring buffer.
The page offset depends on the architecture.
After an ioctl(KVM_RUN), the first page of the KVM memory mapped points to
a kvm_run structure. The offset given by KVM_CAP_COALESCED_MMIO is
an offset to the coalesced MMIO ring expressed in PAGE_SIZE relatively
to the address of the start of th kvm_run structure. The MMIO ring buffer
is defined by the structure kvm_coalesced_mmio_ring.

This patch introduces a gfn_to_pfn() function and corresponding functions like
kvm_release_pfn_dirty(). Using these new functions, we can modify the x86
MMU to no longer assume that it can always get a struct page for any given gfn.
We don't want to eliminate gfn_to_page() entirely because a number of places
assume they can do gfn_to_page() and then kmap() the results. When we support
IO memory, gfn_to_page() will fail for IO pages although gfn_to_pfn() will
succeed.
This does not implement support for avoiding reference counting for reserved
RAM or for IO memory. However, it should make those things pretty straight
forward.
Since we're only introducing new common symbols, I don't think it will break
the non-x86 architectures but I haven't tested those. I've tested Intel,
AMD, NPT, and hugetlbfs with Windows and Linux guests.
