Avi Kivity 18863bdd60 KVM: x86 shared msr infrastructure
The various syscall-related MSRs are fairly expensive to switch.  Currently
we switch them on every vcpu preemption, which is far too often:

- if we're switching to a kernel thread (idle task, threaded interrupt,
  kernel-mode virtio server (vhost-net), for example) and back, then
  there's no need to switch those MSRs since kernel threasd won't
  be exiting to userspace.

- if we're switching to another guest running an identical OS, most likely
  those MSRs will have the same value, so there's little point in reloading
  them.

- if we're running the same OS on the guest and host, the MSRs will have
  identical values and reloading is unnecessary.

This patch uses the new user return notifiers to implement last-minute
switching, and checks the msr values to avoid unnecessary reloading.

Glauber Costa afbcf7ab8d KVM: allow userspace to adjust kvmclock offset
When we migrate a kvm guest that uses pvclock between two hosts, we may
suffer a large skew. This is because there can be significant differences
between the monotonic clock of the hosts involved. When a new host with
a much larger monotonic time starts running the guest, the view of time
will be significantly impacted.

Situation is much worse when we do the opposite, and migrate to a host with
a smaller monotonic clock.

This proposed ioctl will allow userspace to inform us what is the monotonic
clock value in the source host, so we can keep the time skew short, and
more importantly, never goes backwards. Userspace may also need to trigger
the current data, since from the first migration onwards, it won't be
reflected by a simple call to clock_gettime() anymore.

Jan Kiszka 94fe45da48 KVM: x86: Fix guest single-stepping while interruptible
Commit 705c5323 opened the doors of hell by unconditionally injecting
single-step flags as long as guest_debug signaled this. This doesn't
work when the guest branches into some interrupt or exception handler
and triggers a vmexit with flag reloading.

Fix it by saving cs:rip when user space requests single-stepping and
restricting the trace flag injection to this guest code position.

Ed Swierk ffde22ac53 KVM: Xen PV-on-HVM guest support
Support for Xen PV-on-HVM guests can be implemented almost entirely in
userspace, except for handling one annoying MSR that maps a Xen
hypercall blob into guest address space.

A generic mechanism to delegate MSR writes to userspace seems overkill
and risks encouraging similar MSR abuse in the future.  Thus this patch
adds special support for the Xen HVM MSR.

I implemented a new ioctl, KVM_XEN_HVM_CONFIG, that lets userspace tell
KVM which MSR the guest will write to, as well as the starting address
and size of the hypercall blobs (one each for 32-bit and 64-bit) that
userspace has loaded from files.  When the guest writes to the MSR, KVM
copies one page of the blob from userspace to the guest.

I've tested this patch with a hacked-up version of Gerd's userspace
code, booting a number of guests (CentOS 5.3 i386 and x86_64, and
FreeBSD 8.0-RC1 amd64) and exercising PV network and block devices.

Alexander Graf 10474ae894 KVM: Activate Virtualization On Demand
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.

"Unrestricted Guest" feature is added in the VMX specification.
Intel Westmere and onwards processors will support this feature.

    It allows kvm guests to run real mode and unpaged mode

unrestricted guest there is no need to emulate the guest real mode code
in the vm86 container or in the emulator. Also the guest big real mode
code works like native.

if available on the processor. It also adds a new kernel/module

Marcelo Tosatti 53f658b3c3 KVM: VMX: initialize TSC offset relative to vm creation time
VMX initializes the TSC offset for each vcpu at different times, and
also reinitializes it for vcpus other than 0 on APIC SIPI message.

This bug causes the TSC's to appear unsynchronized in the guest, even if
the host is good.

Older Linux kernels don't handle the situation very well, so
gettimeofday is likely to go backwards in time:

http://www.mail-archive.com/kvm@vger.kernel.org/msg02955.html
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2025534&group_id=180599&atid=893831

Fix it by initializating the offset of each vcpu relative to vm creation
time, and moving it from vmx_vcpu_reset to vmx_vcpu_setup, out of the
APIC MP init path.

Avi Kivity 2f0b3d60b2 KVM: MMU: Segregate mmu pages created with different cr4.pge settings
Don't allow a vcpu with cr4.pge cleared to use a shadow page created with
cr4.pge set; this might cause a cr3 switch not to sync ptes that have the
global bit set (the global bit has no effect if !cr4.pge).

This can only occur on smp with different cr4.pge settings for different
vcpus (since a cr4 change will resync the shadow ptes), but there's no
cost to being correct here.

Jan Kiszka 42dbaa5a05 KVM: x86: Virtualize debug registers
So far KVM only had basic x86 debug register support, once introduced to
realize guest debugging that way. The guest itself was not able to use
those registers.

This patch now adds (almost) full support for guest self-debugging via
hardware registers. It refactors the code, moving generic parts out of
SVM (VMX was already cleaned up by the KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG patches), and
it ensures that the registers are properly switched between host and
guest.

This patch also prepares debug register usage by the host. The latter
will (once wired-up by the following patch) allow for hardware
breakpoints/watchpoints in guest code. If this is enabled, the guest
will only see faked debug registers without functionality, but with
content reflecting the guest's modifications.

Tested on Intel only, but SVM /should/ work as well, but who knows...

Known limitations: Trapping on tss switch won't work - most probably on
Intel.

Credits also go to Joerg Roedel - I used his once posted debugging
series as platform for this patch.

Jan Kiszka d0bfb940ec KVM: New guest debug interface
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.

Alexander Graf 3d6368ef58 KVM: SVM: Add VMRUN handler
This patch implements VMRUN. VMRUN enters a virtual CPU and runs that
in the same context as the normal guest CPU would run.
So basically it is implemented the same way, a normal CPU would do it.

We also prepare all intercepts that get OR'ed with the original
intercepts, as we do not allow a level 2 guest to be intercepted less
than the first level guest.

v2 implements the following improvements:

- fixes the CPL check
- does not allocate iopm when not used
- remembers the host's IF in the HIF bit in the hflags

v3:

- make use of the new permission checking
- add support for V_INTR_MASKING_MASK

v4:

- use host page backed hsave

v5:

- remove IOPM merging code

v6:

- save cr4 so PAE l1 guests work

v7:

- return 0 on vmrun so we check the MSRs too
- fix MSR check to use the correct variable

Alexander Graf 1371d90460 KVM: SVM: Implement GIF, clgi and stgi
This patch implements the GIF flag and the clgi and stgi instructions that
set this flag. Only if the flag is set (default), interrupts can be received by
the CPU.

To keep the information about that somewhere, this patch adds a new hidden
flags vector. that is used to store information that does not go into the
vmcb, but is SVM specific.

I tried to write some code to make -no-kvm-irqchip work too, but the first
level guest won't even boot with that atm, so I ditched it.

v2 moves the hflags to x86 generic code
v3 makes use of the new permission helper
v6 only enables interrupt_window if GIF=1
