Emulator accesses are always done a page at a time, either by the emulator
itself (for fetches) or because we need to query the MMU for address
translations. Speed up these accesses by using kvm_read_guest_page
and, in the case of fetches, by inlining kvm_read_guest_virt_helper and
dropping the loop around kvm_read_guest_page.
This final tweak saves 30-100 more clock cycles (4-10%), bringing the
count (as measured by kvm-unit-tests) down to 720-1100 clock cycles on
a Sandy Bridge Xeon host, compared to 2300-3200 before the whole series
and 925-1700 after the first two low-hanging fruit changes.

When the CS base is not page-aligned, the linear address of the code could
get close to the page boundary (e.g. 0x...ffe) even if the EIP value is
not. So we need to first linearize the address, and only then compute
the number of valid bytes that can be fetched.
This happens relatively often when executing real mode code.

We do not need a memory copying loop anymore in insn_fetch; we
can use a byte-aligned pointer to access instruction fields directly

Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
do_insn_fetch_bytes will only be called once in a given insn_fetch and
insn_fetch_arr, because in fact it will only be called at most twice
for any instruction and the first call is explicit in x86_decode_insn.
This observation lets us hoist the call out of the memory copying loop.
It does not buy performance, because most fetches are one byte long
anyway, but it prepares for the next patch.
The overflow check is tricky, but correct. Because do_insn_fetch_bytes
has already been called once, we know that fc->end is at least 15. So
it is okay to subtract the number of bytes we want to read.

Hoist the common case up from do_insn_fetch_byte to do_insn_fetch,

There are several checks for "peculiar" aspects of instructions in both
x86_decode_insn and x86_emulate_insn. Group them together, and guard
them with a single "if" that lets the processor quickly skip them all.
Make this more effective by adding two more flag bits that say whether the
.intercept and .check_perm fields are valid. We will reuse these
flags later to avoid initializing fields of the emulate_ctxt struct.
This skims about 30 cycles for each emulated instructions, which is
approximately a 3% improvement.

Despite the provisions to emulate up to 130 consecutive instructions, in
practice KVM will emulate just one before exiting handle_invalid_guest_state,
because x86_emulate_instruction always sets KVM_REQ_EVENT.
However, we only need to do this if an interrupt could be injected,
which happens a) if an interrupt shadow bit (STI or MOV SS) has gone
away; b) if the interrupt flag has just been set (other instructions
than STI can set it without enabling an interrupt shadow).
This cuts another 700-900 cycles from the cost of emulating an
instruction (measured on a Sandy Bridge Xeon: 1650-2600 cycles
before the patch on kvm-unit-tests, 925-1700 afterwards).
Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
For the next patch we will need to know the full state of the
interrupt shadow; we will then set KVM_REQ_EVENT when one bit
is cleared.
However, right now get_interrupt_shadow only returns the one
corresponding to the emulated instruction, or an unconditional
0 if the emulated instruction does not have an interrupt shadow.
This is confusing and does not allow us to check for cleared
bits as mentioned above.
Clean the callback up, and modify toggle_interruptibility to
match the comment above the call. As a small result, the
call to set_interrupt_shadow will be skipped in the common
case where int_shadow == 0 && mask == 0.

About 25% of the time spent in emulation of invalid guest state
is wasted in checking whether emulation is required for the next
instruction. However, this almost never changes except when a
segment register (or TR or LDTR) changes, or when there is a mode
transition (i.e. CR0 changes).
In fact, vmx_set_segment and vmx_set_cr0 already modify
vmx->emulation_required (except that the former for some reason
uses |= instead of just an assignment). So there is no need to
call guest_state_valid in the emulation loop.
Emulation performance test results indicate 1650-2600 cycles
for common instructions, versus 2300-3200 before this patch on

We have noticed that qemu-kvm hangs early in the BIOS when runnning nested
under some versions of VMware ESXi.
The problem we believe is because KVM assumes that the platform preserves
the 'G' but for any segment register. The SVM specification itemizes the
segment attribute bits that are observed by the CPU, but the (G)ranularity bit
is not one of the bits itemized, for any segment. Though current AMD CPUs keep
track of the (G)ranularity bit for all segment registers other than CS, the
specification does not require it. VMware's virtual CPU may not track the
(G)ranularity bit for any segment register.
Since kvm already synthesizes the (G)ranularity bit for the CS segment. It
should do so for all segments. The patch below does that, and helps get rid of
the hangs. Patch applies on top of Linus' tree.

The fix is to count each vCPU only once when matched, so that
nr_vcpus_matched_tsc holds the size of the matched set. This is
achieved by reusing generation counters. Every vCPU with
this_tsc_generation == cur_tsc_generation is in the matched set. The
match set is cleared by setting cur_tsc_generation to a value which no
other vCPU is set to (by incrementing it).
I needed to bump up the counter size form u8 to u64 to ensure it never
overflows. Otherwise in cases TSC is not written the same number of
times on each vCPU the counter could overflow and incorrectly indicate
some vCPUs as being in the matched set. This scenario seems unlikely
but I'm not sure if it can be disregarded.

When Hyper-V enlightenments are in effect, Windows prefers to issue an
Hyper-V MSR write to issue an EOI rather than an x2apic MSR write.
The Hyper-V MSR write is not handled by the processor, and besides
being slower, this also causes bugs with APIC virtualization. The
reason is that on EOI the processor will modify the highest in-service
interrupt (SVI) field of the VMCS, as explained in section 29.1.4 of
the SDM; every other step in EOI virtualization is already done by
apic_send_eoi or on VM entry, but this one is missing.
We need to do the same, and be careful not to muck with the isr_count
and highest_isr_cache fields that are unused when virtual interrupt
delivery is enabled.

CS.RPL is not equal to the CPL in the few instructions between
setting CR0.PE and reloading CS. And CS.DPL is also not equal
to the CPL for conforming code segments.
However, SS.DPL *is* always equal to the CPL except for the weird
case of SYSRET on AMD processors, which sets SS.DPL=SS.RPL from the
value in the STAR MSR, but force CPL=3 (Intel instead forces
SS.DPL=SS.RPL=CPL=3).
So this patch:
- modifies SVM to update the CPL from SS.DPL rather than CS.RPL;
the above case with SYSRET is not broken further, and the way
to fix it would be to pass the CPL to userspace and back
- modifies VMX to always return the CPL from SS.DPL (except
forcing it to 0 if we are emulating real mode via vm86 mode;
in vm86 mode all DPLs have to be 3, but real mode does allow
privileged instructions). It also removes the CPL cache,
which becomes a duplicate of the SS access rights cache.
This fixes doing KVM_IOCTL_SET_SREGS exactly after setting
CR0.PE=1 but before CS has been reloaded.

Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
During task switch, all of CS.DPL, CS.RPL, SS.DPL must match (in addition
to all the other requirements) and will be the new CPL. So far this
worked by carefully setting the CS selector and flag before doing the
task switch; setting CS.selector will already change the CPL.
However, this will not work once we get the CPL from SS.DPL, because
then you will have to set the full segment descriptor cache to change
the CPL. ctxt->ops->cpl(ctxt) will then return the old CPL during the
task switch, and the check that SS.DPL == CPL will fail.
Temporarily assume that the CPL comes from CS.RPL during task switch
to a protected-mode task. This is the same approach used in QEMU's
emulation code, which (until version 2.0) manually tracks the CPL.

It seems that it's easy to implement the EOI assist
on top of the PV EOI feature: simply convert the
page address to the format expected by PV EOI.
Notes:
-"No EOI required" is set only if interrupt injected
is edge triggered; this is true because level interrupts are going
through IOAPIC which disables PV EOI.
In any case, if guest triggers EOI the bit will get cleared on exit.
-For migration, set of HV_X64_MSR_APIC_ASSIST_PAGE sets
KVM_PV_EOI_EN internally, so restoring HV_X64_MSR_APIC_ASSIST_PAGE
seems sufficient
In any case, bit is cleared on exit so worst case it's never re-enabled
-no handling of PV EOI data is performed at HV_X64_MSR_EOI write;
HV_X64_MSR_EOI is a separate optimization - it's an X2APIC
replacement that lets you do EOI with an MSR and not IO.

Currently, kvm zaps the large spte if write-protected is needed, the later
read can fault on that spte. Actually, we can make the large spte readonly
instead of making them un-present, the page fault caused by read access can
be avoided
The idea is from Avi:
| As I mentioned before, write-protecting a large spte is a good idea,
| since it moves some work from protect-time to fault-time, so it reduces
| jitter. This removes the need for the return value.
This version has fixed the issue reported in 6b73a9606, the reason of that
issue is that fast_page_fault() directly sets the readonly large spte to
writable but only dirty the first page into the dirty-bitmap that means
other pages are missed. Fixed it by only the normal sptes (on the
PT_PAGE_TABLE_LEVEL level) can be fast fixed

If a guest enables a performance counter but does not enable PMI, the
hypervisor currently does not reprogram the performance counter once it
overflows. As a result the host performance counter is kept with the original
sampling period which was configured according to the value of the guest's
counter when the counter was enabled.
Such behaviour can cause very bad consequences. The most distrubing one can
cause the guest not to make any progress at all, and keep exiting due to host
PMI before any guest instructions is exeucted. This situation occurs when the
performance counter holds a very high value when the guest enables the
performance counter. As a result the host's sampling period is configured to be
very short. The host then never reconfigures the sampling period and get stuck
at entry->PMI->exit loop. We encountered such a scenario in our experiments.
The solution is to reprogram the counter even if the guest does not use PMI.

With KVM, MMIO is much slower than PIO, due to the need to
do page walk and emulation. But with EPT, it does not have to be: we
know the address from the VMCS so if the address is unique, we can look
up the eventfd directly, bypassing emulation.
Unfortunately, this only works if userspace does not need to match on
access length and data. The implementation adds a separate FAST_MMIO
bus internally. This serves two purposes:
- minimize overhead for old userspace that does not use eventfd with lengtth = 0
- minimize disruption in other code (since we don't know the length,
devices on the MMIO bus only get a valid address in write, this
way we don't need to touch all devices to teach them to handle
an invalid length)
At the moment, this optimization only has effect for EPT on x86.
It will be possible to speed up MMIO for NPT and MMU using the same
idea in the future.
With this patch applied, on VMX MMIO EVENTFD is essentially as fast as PIO.
I was unable to detect any measureable slowdown to non-eventfd MMIO.
Making MMIO faster is important for the upcoming virtio 1.0 which
includes an MMIO signalling capability.
The idea was suggested by Peter Anvin. Lots of thanks to Gleb for
pre-review and suggestions.

It is sometimes benefitial to ignore IO size, and only match on address.
In hindsight this would have been a better default than matching length
when KVM_IOEVENTFD_FLAG_DATAMATCH is not set, In particular, this kind
of access can be optimized on VMX: there no need to do page lookups.
This can currently be done with many ioeventfds but in a suboptimal way.
However we can't change kernel/userspace ABI without risk of breaking
some applications.
Use len = 0 to mean "ignore length for matching" in a more optimal way.

Subsystems that want to register CPU hotplug callbacks, as well as perform
initialization for the CPUs that are already online, often do it as shown
below:
get_online_cpus();
for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
init_cpu(cpu);
register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);
put_online_cpus();
This is wrong, since it is prone to ABBA deadlocks involving the
cpu_add_remove_lock and the cpu_hotplug.lock (when running concurrently
with CPU hotplug operations).
Instead, the correct and race-free way of performing the callback
registration is:
cpu_notifier_register_begin();
for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
init_cpu(cpu);
/* Note the use of the double underscored version of the API */
__register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);
cpu_notifier_register_done();
Fix the kvm code in x86 by using this latter form of callback registration.

writes to the field with vmx_mpx_supported(), and similarly hide the

XSAVE support for KVM is already using host_xcr0 & KVM_SUPPORTED_XCR0 as
a "dynamic" version of KVM_SUPPORTED_XCR0.
However, this is not enough because the MPX bits should not be presented
to the guest unless kvm_x86_ops confirms the support. So, replace all
instances of host_xcr0 & KVM_SUPPORTED_XCR0 with a new function
kvm_supported_xcr0() that also has this check.
Note that here:
if (xstate_bv & ~KVM_SUPPORTED_XCR0)
return -EINVAL;
if (xstate_bv & ~host_cr0)
return -EINVAL;
the code is equivalent to
if ((xstate_bv & ~KVM_SUPPORTED_XCR0) ||
(xstate_bv & ~host_cr0)
return -EINVAL;
i.e. "xstate_bv & (~KVM_SUPPORTED_XCR0 | ~host_cr0)" which is in turn
equal to "xstate_bv & ~(KVM_SUPPORTED_XCR0 & host_cr0)". So we should
also use the new function there.

Both QEMU and KVM have already accumulated a significant number of
optimizations based on the hard-coded assumption that ioapic polarity
will always use the ActiveHigh convention, where the logical and
physical states of level-triggered irq lines always match (i.e.,
active(asserted) == high == 1, inactive == low == 0). QEMU guests
are expected to follow directions given via ACPI and configure the
ioapic with polarity 0 (ActiveHigh). However, even when misbehaving
guests (e.g. OS X <= 10.9) set the ioapic polarity to 1 (ActiveLow),
QEMU will still use the ActiveHigh signaling convention when
interfacing with KVM.
This patch modifies KVM to completely ignore ioapic polarity as set by
the guest OS, enabling misbehaving guests to work alongside those which
comply with the ActiveHigh polarity specified by QEMU's ACPI tables.

When we update a vcpu's local clock it may pick up an NTP correction.
We can't wait an indeterminate amount of time for other vcpus to pick
up that correction, so commit 0061d53daf introduced a global clock
update. However, we can't request a global clock update on every vcpu
load either (which is what happens if the tsc is marked as unstable).
The solution is to rate-limit the global clock updates. Marcelo
calculated that we should delay the global clock updates no more
than 0.1s as follows:
Assume an NTP correction c is applied to one vcpu, but not the other,
then in n seconds the delta of the vcpu system_timestamps will be
c * n. If we assume a correction of 500ppm (worst-case), then the two
vcpus will diverge 50us in 0.1s, which is a considerable amount.

The problem occurs when the guest performs a pusha with the stack
address pointing to an mmio address (or an invalid guest physical
address) to start with, but then extending into an ordinary guest
physical address. When doing repeated emulated pushes
emulator_read_write sets mmio_needed to 1 on the first one. On a
later push when the stack points to regular memory,
mmio_nr_fragments is set to 0, but mmio_is_needed is not set to 0.
As a result, KVM exits to userspace, and then returns to
complete_emulated_mmio. In complete_emulated_mmio
vcpu->mmio_cur_fragment is incremented. The termination condition of
vcpu->mmio_cur_fragment == vcpu->mmio_nr_fragments is never achieved.
The code bounces back and fourth to userspace incrementing
mmio_cur_fragment past it's buffer. If the guest does nothing else it
eventually leads to a a crash on a memcpy from invalid memory address.
However if a guest code can cause the vm to be destroyed in another
vcpu with excellent timing, then kvm_clear_async_pf_completion_queue
can be used by the guest to control the data that's pointed to by the
call to cancel_work_item, which can be used to gain execution.
