Since the two callers of set_spte do different things with the results, inlining it actually makes the code simpler to reason about. For example, mmu_set_spte looks quite like tdp_mmu_map_handle_target_level, but the similarity is hidden by set_spte. Signed-off-by:Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

Now that kvm_page_fault has a pointer to the memslot it can be passed down to the page tracking code to avoid a redundant slot lookup. No functional change intended. Signed-off-by:

The memslot for the faulting gfn is used throughout the page fault handling code, so capture it in kvm_page_fault as soon as we know the gfn and use it in the page fault handling code that has direct access to the kvm_page_fault struct. Replace various tests using is_noslot_pfn with more direct tests on fault->slot being NULL. This, in combination with the subsequent patch, improves "Populate memory time" in dirty_log_perf_test by 5% when using the legacy MMU. There is no discerable improvement to the performance of the TDP MMU. No functional change intended. Suggested-by:

tdp_mmu_map_set_spte_atomic is not taking care of dirty logging anymore, the only difference that remains is that it takes a vCPU instead of the struct kvm. Merge the two functions. Signed-off-by: -

This simplifies set_spte, which we want to remove, and unifies code between the shadow MMU and the TDP MMU. The warning will be added back later to make_spte as well. There is a small disadvantage in the TDP MMU; it may unnecessarily mark a page as dirty twice if two vCPUs end up mapping the same page twice. However, this is a very small cost for a case that is already rare. Signed-off-by: -

Consolidate rmap_recycle and rmap_add into a single function since they are only ever called together (and only from one place). This has a nice side effect of eliminating an extra kvm_vcpu_gfn_to_memslot(). In addition it makes mmu_set_spte(), which is a very long function, a little shorter. No functional change intended.

WARN and bail if the shadow walk for faulting in a SPTE terminates early, i.e. doesn't reach the expected level because the walk encountered a terminal SPTE. The shadow walks for page faults are subtle in that they install non-leaf SPTEs (zapping leaf SPTEs if necessary!) in the loop body, and consume the newly created non-leaf SPTE in the loop control, e.g. __shadow_walk_next(). In other words, the walks guarantee that the walk will stop if and only if the target level is reached by installing non-leaf SPTEs to guarantee the walk remains valid. Opportunistically use fault->goal-level instead of it.level in FNAME(fetch) to further clarify that KVM always installs the leaf SPTE at the target level. Reviewed-by:

Pass struct kvm_page_fault to tracepoints instead of extracting the arguments from the struct. This also lets the kvm_mmu_spte_requested tracepoint pick the gfn directly from fault->gfn, instead of using the address. Signed-off-by: -

Add fields to struct kvm_page_fault corresponding to the arguments of direct_page_fault(). The fields are initialized in the callers, and direct_page_fault() receives a struct kvm_page_fault instead of having to extract the arguments out of it. Also adjust FNAME(page_fault) to store the max_level in struct kvm_page_fault, to keep it similar to the direct map path. Suggested-by:

Sean noticed that KVM_GET_CLOCK was checking kvm_arch.use_master_clock outside of the pvclock sync lock. This is problematic, as the clock value written to the user may or may not actually correspond to a stable TSC. Fix the race by populating the entire kvm_clock_data structure behind the pvclock_gtod_sync_lock. Suggested-by:

Updates to the kvmclock parameters needs to do a complicated dance of KVM_REQ_MCLOCK_INPROGRESS and KVM_REQ_CLOCK_UPDATE in addition to taking pvclock_gtod_sync_lock. Place that in two functions that can be called on all of master clock update, KVM_SET_CLOCK, and Hyper-V reenlightenment. Reviewed-by:

So far, the loop bodies already ensure the PTE is present before calling __shadow_walk_next(): Some loop bodies simply exit with a !PRESENT directly and some other loop bodies, i.e. FNAME(fetch) and __direct_map() do not currently guard their walks with is_shadow_present_pte, but only because they install present non-leaf SPTEs in the loop itself. But checking pte present in __shadow_walk_next() (which is called from shadow_walk_okay()) is more prudent; walking past a !PRESENT SPTE would lead to attempting to read a the next level SPTE from a garbage iter->shadow_addr. It also allows to remove the is_shadow_present_pte() checks from the loop bodies. Reviewed-by:

This was tested by booting a nested guest with TSC=1Ghz, observing the clocks, and doing about 100 cycles of migration. Note that qemu patch is needed to support migration because of a new MSR that needs to be placed in the migration state. The patch will be sent to the qemu mailing list soon. Signed-off-by:

Commit adc2a237 ("KVM: nSVM: improve SYSENTER emulation on AMD"), made init_vmcb set vmload/vmsave intercepts unconditionally, and relied on svm_vcpu_after_set_cpuid to clear them when possible. However init_vmcb is also called when the vCPU is reset, and it is not followed by another call to svm_vcpu_after_set_cpuid because the CPUID is already set. This mistake makes the VMSAVE/VMLOAD intercept to be set when it is not needed, and harms performance of the nested guest. Extract the relevant parts of svm_vcpu_after_set_cpuid so that they can be called again on reset. Fixes: adc2a237 ("KVM: nSVM: improve SYSENTER emulation on AMD") Signed-off-by:

According to the SDM, the CPU never modifies these settings. It loads them on VM entry and updates an internal copy instead. Also don't load them from the vmcb12 as we don't expose these features to the nested guest yet. Signed-off-by:

All of the irqfds would to be updated when update the irq routing, it's too expensive if there're too many irqfds. However we can reduce the cost by avoid some unnecessary updates. For irqs of MSI type on X86, the update can be saved if the msi values are not change. The vfio migration could receives benefit from this optimi- zaiton. The test VM has 128 vcpus and 8 VF (with 65 vectors enabled), so the VM has more than 520 irqfds. We mesure the cost of the vfio_msix_enable (in QEMU, it would set routing for each irqfd) for each VF, and we can see the total cost can be significantly reduced.

If the original spte is writable, the target gfn should not be the gfn of synchronized shadowpage and can continue to be writable. When !can_unsync, speculative must be false. So when the check of "!can_unsync" is removed, we need to move the label of "out" up. Signed-off-by:

Currently kvm_sync_page() returns true when there is any present spte. But the return value is ignored in the callers. Changing kvm_sync_page() to return true when remote flush is needed and changing mmu->sync_page() not to directly flush can combine and reduce remote flush requests. Signed-off-by:

After any shadow page modification, flushing tlb only on current VCPU is weird due to other VCPU's tlb might still be stale. In other words, if there is any mandatory tlb-flushing after shadow page modification, SET_SPTE_NEED_REMOTE_TLB_FLUSH or remote_flush should be set and the tlbs of all VCPUs should be flushed. There is not point to only flush current tlb except when the request is from vCPU's or pCPU's activities. If there was any bug that mandatory tlb-flushing is required and SET_SPTE_NEED_REMOTE_TLB_FLUSH/remote_flush is failed to set, this patch would expose the bug in a more destructive way. The related code paths are checked and no missing SET_SPTE_NEED_REMOTE_TLB_FLUSH is found yet. Currently, there is no optional tlb-flushing after sync page related code is changed to flush tlb timely. So we can just remove these local flushing code. Signed-off-by:

Make a final call to direct_pte_prefetch_many() if there are "trailing" SPTEs to prefetch, i.e. SPTEs for GFNs following the faulting GFN. The call to direct_pte_prefetch_many() in the loop only handles the case where there are !PRESENT SPTEs preceding a PRESENT SPTE. E.g. if the faulting GFN is a multiple of 8 (the prefetch size) and all SPTEs for the following GFNs are !PRESENT, the loop will terminate with "start = sptep+1" and not prefetch any SPTEs. Prefetching trailing SPTEs as intended can drastically reduce the number of guest page faults, e.g. accessing the first byte of every 4kb page in a 6gb chunk of virtual memory, in a VM with 8gb of preallocated memory, the number of pf_fixed events observed in L0 drops from ~1.75M to <0.27M. Note, this only affects memory that is backed by 4kb pages as KVM doesn't prefetch when installing hugepages. Shadow paging prefetching is not affected as it does not batch the prefetches due to the need to process the corresponding guest PTE. The TDP MMU is not affected because it doesn't have prefetching, yet...
