If emulate_invalid_guest_state=false vmx->emulation_required is never actually used, but it ends up to be always set to true since handle_invalid_guest_state(), the only place it is reset back to false, is never called. This, besides been not very clean, makes vmexit and vmentry path to check emulate_invalid_guest_state needlessly. The patch fixes that by keeping emulation_required coherent with emulate_invalid_guest_state setting.

Since vmx_get_cpl() always returns 0 when VCPU is in real mode it is no longer needed. Also reset CPL cache to zero during transaction to protected mode since transaction may happen while CS.selectors & 3 != 0, but in reality CPL is 0.

The current reexecute_instruction can not well detect the failed instruction emulation. It allows guest to retry all the instructions except it accesses on error pfn For example, some cases are nested-write-protect - if the page we want to write is used as PDE but it chains to itself. Under this case, we should stop the emulation and report the case to userspace Reviewed-by: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>

Currently, reexecute_instruction refused to retry all instructions if tdp is enabled. If nested npt is used, the emulation may be caused by shadow page, it can be fixed by dropping the shadow page. And the only condition that tdp can not retry the instruction is the access fault on error pfn Reviewed-by: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>

One such variable, slot, is enough for holding a pointer temporarily. We also remove another local variable named slot, which is limited in a block, since it is confusing to have the same name in this function.

If the userspace starts dirty logging for a large slot, say 64GB of memory, kvm_mmu_slot_remove_write_access() needs to hold mmu_lock for a long time such as tens of milliseconds. This patch controls the lock hold time by asking the scheduler if we need to reschedule for others. One penalty for this is that we need to flush TLBs before releasing mmu_lock. But since holding mmu_lock for a long time does affect not only the guest, vCPU threads in other words, but also the host as a whole, we should pay for that. In practice, the cost will not be so high because we can protect a fair amount of memory before being rescheduled: on my test environment, cond_resched_lock() was called only once for protecting 12GB of memory even without THP. We can also revisit Avi's "unlocked TLB flush" work later for completely suppressing extra TLB flushes if needed.

No reason to make callers take mmu_lock since we do not need to protect kvm_mmu_change_mmu_pages() and kvm_mmu_slot_remove_write_access() together by mmu_lock in kvm_arch_commit_memory_region(): the former calls kvm_mmu_commit_zap_page() and flushes TLBs by itself. Note: we do not need to protect kvm->arch.n_requested_mmu_pages by mmu_lock as can be seen from the fact that it is read locklessly.

This makes it possible to release mmu_lock and reschedule conditionally in a later patch. Although this may increase the time needed to protect the whole slot when we start dirty logging, the kernel should not allow the userspace to trigger something that will hold a spinlock for such a long time as tens of milliseconds: actually there is no limit since it is roughly proportional to the number of guest pages. Another point to note is that this patch removes the only user of slot_bitmap which will cause some problems when we increase the number of slots further.

Calling kvm_mmu_slot_remove_write_access() for a deleted slot does nothing but search for non-existent mmu pages which have mappings to that deleted memory; this is safe but a waste of time. Since we want to make the function rmap based in a later patch, in a manner which makes it unsafe to be called for a deleted slot, we makes the caller see if the slot is non-zero and being dirty logged.

We have two issues in current code: - if target gfn is used as its page table, guest will refault then kvm will use small page size to map it. We need two #PF to fix its shadow page table - sometimes, say a exception is triggered during vm-exit caused by #PF (see handle_exception() in vmx.c), we remove all the shadow pages shadowed by the target gfn before go into page fault path, it will cause infinite loop: delete shadow pages shadowed by the gfn -> try to use large page size to map the gfn -> retry the access ->... To fix these, we can adjust page size early if the target gfn is used as page table Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>

If the write-fault access is from supervisor and CR0.WP is not set on the vcpu, kvm will fix it by adjusting pte access - it sets the W bit on pte and clears U bit. This is the chance that kvm can change pte access from readonly to writable Unfortunately, the pte access is the access of 'direct' shadow page table, means direct sp.role.access = pte_access, then we will create a writable spte entry on the readonly shadow page table. It will cause Dirty bit is not tracked when two guest ptes point to the same large page. Note, it does not have other impact except Dirty bit since cr0.wp is encoded into sp.role It can be fixed by adjusting pte access before establishing shadow page table. Also, after that, no mmu specified code exists in the common function and drop two parameters in set_spte Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>

We need to be able to read and write the contents of the EPR register from user space. This patch implements that logic through the ONE_REG API and declares its (never implemented) SREGS counterpart as deprecated. Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>

The External Proxy Facility in FSL BookE chips allows the interrupt controller to automatically acknowledge an interrupt as soon as a core gets its pending external interrupt delivered. Today, user space implements the interrupt controller, so we need to check on it during such a cycle. This patch implements logic for user space to enable EPR exiting, disable EPR exiting and EPR exiting itself, so that user space can acknowledge an interrupt when an external interrupt has successfully been delivered into the guest vcpu.

When injecting an interrupt into guest context, we usually don't need to check for requests anymore. At least not until today. With the introduction of EPR, we will have to create a request when the guest has successfully accepted an external interrupt though. So we need to prepare the interrupt delivery to abort guest entry gracefully. Otherwise we'd delay the EPR request. Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>
