kvm_pv_mmu_op should not take mmap_sem. All gfn_to_page() callers down in the MMU processing will take it if necessary, so as it is it can deadlock. Apparently a leftover from the days before slots_lock. Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

There is not selective cr0 intercept bug. The code in the comment sets the CR0.PG bit. But KVM sets the CR4.PG bit for SVM always to implement the paged real mode. So the 'mov %eax,%cr0' instruction does not change the CR0.PG bit. Selective CR0 intercepts only occur when a bit is actually changed. So its the right behavior that there is no intercept on this instruction. Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

This patch disables the intercept of CR8 writes if the TPR is not masking interrupts. This reduces the total number CR8 intercepts to below 1 percent of what we have without this patch using Windows 64 bit guests.

This functionality is definitely experimental, but is capable of running unmodified PowerPC 440 Linux kernels as guests on a PowerPC 440 host. (Only tested with 440EP "Bamboo" guests so far, but with appropriate userspace support other SoC/board combinations should work.) See Documentation/powerpc/kvm_440.txt for technical details.

Device Control Registers are essentially another address space found on PowerPC 4xx processors, analogous to PIO on x86. DCRs are always 32 bits, and can be identified by a 32-bit number. We forward most DCR accesses to userspace for emulation (with the exception of CPR0 registers, which can be read directly for simplicity in timebase frequency determination).

There is a window open between testing of pending IRQ's and assignment of guest_mode in __vcpu_run. Injection of IRQ's can race with __vcpu_run as follows: CPU0 CPU1 kvm_x86_ops->run() vcpu->guest_mode = 0 SET_IRQ_LINE ioctl .. kvm_x86_ops->inject_pending_irq kvm_cpu_has_interrupt() apic_test_and_set_irr() kvm_vcpu_kick if (vcpu->guest_mode) send_ipi() vcpu->guest_mode = 1 So move guest_mode=1 assignment before ->inject_pending_irq, and make sure that it won't reorder after it.

Timers that fire between guest hlt and vcpu_block's add_wait_queue() are ignored, possibly resulting in hangs. Also make sure that atomic_inc and waitqueue_active tests happen in the specified order, otherwise the following race is open: CPU0 CPU1 if (waitqueue_active(wq)) add_wait_queue() if (!atomic_read(pit_timer->pending)) schedule() atomic_inc(pit_timer->pending) Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

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.
