This is the guest part of kvm clock implementation It does not do tsc-only timing, as tsc can have deltas between cpus, and it did not seem worthy to me to keep adjusting them. We do use it, however, for fine-grained adjustment. Other than that, time comes from the host.

This is the host part of kvm clocksource implementation. As it does not include clockevents, it is a fairly simple implementation. We only have to register a per-vcpu area, and start writing to it periodically. The area is binary compatible with xen, as we use the same shadow_info structure.

This patch implements the Last Branch Record Virtualization (LBRV) feature of the AMD Barcelona and Phenom processors into the kvm-amd module. It will only be enabled if the guest enables last branch recording in the DEBUG_CTL MSR. So there is no increased world switch overhead when the guest doesn't use these MSRs.

This patch changes the kvm-amd module to allocate the SVM MSR permission map per VCPU instead of a global map for all VCPUs. With this we have more flexibility allowing specific guests to access virtualized MSRs. This is required for LBR virtualization.

The mapping function for the nonpaging case in the softmmu does basically the same as required for Nested Paging. Make this function generic so it can be used for both. Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

The generic x86 code has to know if the specific implementation uses Nested Paging. In the generic code Nested Paging is called Two Dimensional Paging (TDP) to avoid confusion with (future) TDP implementations of other vendors. This patch exports the availability of TDP to the generic x86 code. Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

To disable the use of the Nested Paging feature even if it is available in hardware this patch adds a module parameter. Nested Paging can be disabled by passing npt=0 to the kvm_amd module. Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

To allow access to the EFER register in 32bit KVM the EFER specific code has to be exported to the x86 generic code. This patch does this in a backwards compatible manner.

This patch aligns the bits the guest can set in the EFER register with the features in the host processor. Currently it lets EFER.NX disabled if the processor does not support it and enables EFER.LME and EFER.LMA only for KVM on 64 bit hosts.

Currently an mmio guest pte is encoded in the shadow pagetable as a not-present trapping pte, with the SHADOW_IO_MARK bit set. However nothing is ever done with this information, so maintaining it is a useless complication. This patch moves the check for mmio to before shadow ptes are instantiated, so the shadow code is never invoked for ptes that reference mmio. The code is simpler, and with future work, can be made to handle mmio concurrently. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

Certain x86 instructions use bits 3:5 of the byte following the opcode as an opcode extension, with the decode sometimes depending on bits 6:7 as well. Add support for this in the main decoding table rather than an ad-hock adaptation per opcode. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

A guest partial guest pte write will leave shadow_trap_nonpresent_pte in spte, which generates a vmexit at the next guest access through that pte. This patch improves this by reading the full guest pte in advance and thus being able to update the spte and eliminate the vmexit. This helps pae guests which use two 32-bit writes to set a single 64-bit pte.
