This helps in filtering out the eligible candidates further and thus potentially helps in quickly allowing preempted lockholders to run. Note that if a vcpu was spinning during preemption we filter them by checking whether they are preempted due to pause loop exit. Reviewed-by:

Note that we mark as preempted only when vcpu's task state was Running during preemption. Thanks Jiannan, Avi for preemption notifier ideas. Thanks Gleb, PeterZ for their precious suggestions. Thanks Srikar for an idea on avoiding rcu lock while checking task state that improved overcommit numbers. Reviewed-by:

The code can be significantly shortened. There is no functional change, except that for large (> PAGE_SIZE) copies the guest translation would be done more frequently. However, there is not a single user which does this currently. If one gets added later on this functionality can be added easily again. Signed-off-by:

The put_guest_u*/get_guest_u* are nothing but wrappers for the regular put_user/get_user uaccess functions. The only difference is that before accessing user space the guest address must be translated to a user space address. Change the order of arguments for the guest access functions so they match their uaccess parts. Also remove the u* suffix, so we simply have put_guest/get_guest which will automatically use the right size dependent on pointer type of the destination/source that now must be correct. In result the same behaviour as put_user/get_user except that accesses must be aligned. Signed-off-by:

Let's change to the paradigm that every return code from guest memory access functions that is not zero translates to -EFAULT and do not explictly compare. Explictly comparing the return value with -EFAULT has already shown to be a bit fragile. In addition this is closer to the handling of copy_to/from_user functions, which imho is in general a good idea. Also shorten the return code handling in interrupt.c a bit. Signed-off-by:

When out-of-memory the tprot code incorrectly injected a program check for the guest which reported an addressing exception even if the guest address was valid. Let's use the new gmap_translate() which translates a guest address to a user space address whithout the chance of running into an out-of-memory situation. Also make it more explicit that for -EFAULT we won't find a vma. Signed-off-by:

Implement gmap_translate() function which translates a guest absolute address to a user space process address without establishing the guest page table entries. This is useful for kvm guest address translations where no memory access is expected to happen soon (e.g. tprot exception handler). Signed-off-by:

Guest access functions like copy_to/from_guest() call __guestaddr_to_user() which in turn call gmap_fault() in order to translate a guest address to a user space address. In error case __guest_addr_to_user() returns either -EFAULT or -ENOMEM. The copy_to/from_guest functions just pass these return values down to the callers. The -ENOMEM case however is problematic since there are several places which access guest memory like: rc = copy_to_guest(...); if (rc == -EFAULT) error_handling(); So in case of -ENOMEM the code assumes that the guest memory access succeeded even though it failed. This can cause guest data or state corruption. If __guestaddr_to_user() returns -ENOMEM the meaning is that a valid user space mapping exists, but there was not enough memory available when trying to build the guest mapping. In other words an out-of-memory situation occured. For normal user space accesses an out-of-memory situation causes the page fault handler to map -ENOMEM to -EFAULT (see fixup code in do_no_context()). We need to do exactly the same for the kvm gaccess functions. So __guestaddr_to_user() should just map all error codes to -EFAULT. Signed-off-by:

The logic for calculating the value with which we call kvm_set_cr0/4 was broken (will definitely be visible with nested unrestricted guest mode support). Also, we performed the check regarding CR0_ALWAYSON too early when in guest mode. What really needs to be done on both CR0 and CR4 is to mask out L1-owned bits and merge them in from L1's guest_cr0/4. In contrast, arch.cr0/4 and arch.cr0/4_guest_owned_bits contain the mangled L0+L1 state and, thus, are not suited as input. For both CRs, we can then apply the check against VMXON_CRx_ALWAYSON and refuse the update if it fails. To be fully consistent, we implement this check now also for CR4. For CR4, we move the check into vmx_set_cr4 while we keep it in handle_set_cr0. This is because the CR0 checks for vmxon vs. guest mode will diverge soon when adding unrestricted guest mode support. Finally, we have to set the shadow to the value L2 wanted to write originally. Reviewed-by:

Currently, eventfd introduces module_init/module_exit functions to initialize/cleanup the irqfd workqueue. This only works, however, if no other module_init/module_exit functions are built into the same module. Let's just move the initialization and cleanup to kvm_init and kvm_exit. This way, it is also clearer where kvm startup may fail. Signed-off-by:

Yay. No more uapi movement.
