2012-06-05KVM: Avoid wasting pages for small lpage_info arraysTakuya Yoshikawa1-0/+3
lpage_info is created for each large level even when the memory slot is not for RAM. This means that when we add one slot for a PCI device, we end up allocating at least KVM_NR_PAGE_SIZES - 1 pages by vmalloc(). To make things worse, there is an increasing number of devices which would result in more pages being wasted this way. This patch mitigates this problem by using kvm_kvzalloc().

2012-05-16KVM: MMU: Don't use RCU for lockless shadow walkingAvi Kivity1-1/+2
Using RCU for lockless shadow walking can increase the amount of memory in use by the system, since RCU grace periods are unpredictable. We also have an unconditional write to a shared variable (reader_counter), which isn't good for scaling. Replace that with a scheme similar to x86's get_user_pages_fast(): disable interrupts during lockless shadow walk to force the freer (kvm_mmu_commit_zap_page()) to wait for the TLB flush IPI to find the processor with interrupts enabled. We also add a new vcpu->mode, READING_SHADOW_PAGE_TABLES, to prevent kvm_flush_remote_tlbs() from avoiding the IPI.

2012-04-24KVM: Introduce direct MSI message injection for in-kernel irqchipsJan Kiszka1-0/+2
Currently, MSI messages can only be injected to in-kernel irqchips by defining a corresponding IRQ route for each message. This is not only unhandy if the MSI messages are generated "on the fly" by user space, IRQ routes are a limited resource that user space has to manage carefully. By providing a direct injection path, we can both avoid using up limited resources and simplify the necessary steps for user land.

MMIO that are split across a page boundary are currently broken - the code does not expect to be aborted by the exit to userspace for the first MMIO fragment.

2012-04-12KVM: unmap pages from the iommu when slots are removedAlex Williamson1-0/+6
We've been adding new mappings, but not destroying old mappings. This can lead to a page leak as pages are pinned using get_user_pages, but only unpinned with put_page if they still exist in the memslots list on vm shutdown. A memslot that is destroyed while an iommu domain is enabled for the guest will therefore result in an elevated page reference count that is never cleared. Additionally, without this fix, the iommu is only programmed with the first translation for a gpa. This can result in peer-to-peer errors if a mapping is destroyed and replaced by a new mapping at the same gpa as the iommu will still be pointing to the original, pinned memory address.

2012-04-08KVM: PPC: Rework wqp conditional codeAlexander Graf1-2/+4
On PowerPC, we sometimes use a waitqueue per core, not per thread, so we can't always use the vcpu internal waitqueue. This code has been generalized by Christoffer Dall recently, but unfortunately broke compilation for PowerPC. At the time the helper function is defined, struct kvm_vcpu is not declared yet, so we can't dereference it.

2012-04-08KVM: set upper bounds for iobus dev to limit userspaceAmos Kong1-1/+1
kvm_io_bus devices are used for ioevent, pit, pic, ioapic, coalesced_mmio. Currently Qemu only emulates one PCI bus, it contains 32 slots, one slot contains 8 functions, maximum of supported PCI devices: 1 * 32 * 8 = 256. One virtio-blk takes one iobus device, one virtio-net(vhost=on) takes two iobus devices. The maximum of coalesced mmio zone is 100, each zone has an iobus devices. So 300 io_bus devices are not enough. Set an upper bounds for kvm_io_range to limit userspace. 1000 is a very large limit and not bloat the typical user.

PCI 2.3 allows to generically disable IRQ sources at device level. This enables us to share legacy IRQs of such devices with other host devices when passing them to a guest. The new IRQ sharing feature introduced here is optional, user space has to request it explicitly. Moreover, user space can inform us about its view of PCI_COMMAND_INTX_DISABLE so that we can avoid unmasking the interrupt and signaling it if the guest masked it via the virtualized PCI config space.

2012-03-08KVM: Ensure all vcpus are consistent with in-kernel irqchip settingsAvi Kivity1-0/+7
If some vcpus are created before KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, then irqchip_in_kernel() and vcpu->arch.apic will be inconsistent, leading to potential NULL pointer dereferences. Fix by: - ensuring that no vcpus are installed when KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP is called - ensuring that a vcpu has an apic if it is installed after KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP This is somewhat long winded because vcpu->arch.apic is created without kvm->lock held.

2012-03-05KVM: Move gfn_to_memslot() to kvm_host.hPaul Mackerras1-0/+25
This moves __gfn_to_memslot() and search_memslots() from kvm_main.c to kvm_host.h to reduce the code duplication caused by the need for non-modular code in arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_hv_rm_mmu.c to call gfn_to_memslot() in real mode. Rather than putting gfn_to_memslot() itself in a header, which would lead to increased code size, this puts __gfn_to_memslot() in a header. Then, the non-modular uses of gfn_to_memslot() are changed to call __gfn_to_memslot() instead. This way there is only one place in the source code that needs to be changed should the gfn_to_memslot() implementation need to be modified. On powerpc, the Book3S HV style of KVM has code that is called from real mode which needs to call gfn_to_memslot() and thus needs this. (Module code is allocated in the vmalloc region, which can't be accessed in real mode.) With this, we can remove builtin_gfn_to_memslot() from book3s_hv_rm_mmu.c.

2011-12-27KVM: nVMX: Add KVM_REQ_IMMEDIATE_EXITNadav Har'El1-0/+1
This patch adds a new vcpu->requests bit, KVM_REQ_IMMEDIATE_EXIT. This bit requests that when next entering the guest, we should run it only for as little as possible, and exit again. We use this new option in nested VMX: When L1 launches L2, but L0 wishes L1 to continue running so it can inject an event to it, we unfortunately cannot just pretend to have run L2 for a little while - We must really launch L2, otherwise certain one-off vmcs12 parameters (namely, L1 injection into L2) will be lost. So the existing code runs L2 in this case. But L2 could potentially run for a long time until it exits, and the injection into L1 will be delayed. The new KVM_REQ_IMMEDIATE_EXIT allows us to request that L2 will be entered, as necessary, but will exit as soon as possible after entry. Our implementation of this request uses smp_send_reschedule() to send a self-IPI, with interrupts disabled. The interrupts remain disabled until the guest is entered, and then, after the entry is complete (often including processing an injection and jumping to the relevant handler), the physical interrupt is noticed and causes an exit. On recent Intel processors, we could have achieved the same goal by using MTF instead of a self-IPI. Another technique worth considering in the future is to use VM_EXIT_ACK_INTR_ON_EXIT and a highest-priority vector IPI - to slightly improve performance by avoiding the useless interrupt handler which ends up being called when smp_send_reschedule() is used.

If simultaneous NMIs happen, we're supposed to queue the second and next (collapsing them), but currently we sometimes collapse the second into the first. Fix by using a counter for pending NMIs instead of a bool; since the counter limit depends on whether the processor is currently in an NMI handler, which can only be checked in vcpu context (via the NMI mask), we add a new KVM_REQ_NMI to request recalculation of the counter.

2011-09-25KVM: Intelligent device lookup on I/O busSasha Levin1-9/+9
Currently the method of dealing with an IO operation on a bus (PIO/MMIO) is to call the read or write callback for each device registered on the bus until we find a device which handles it. Since the number of devices on a bus can be significant due to ioeventfds and coalesced MMIO zones, this leads to a lot of overhead on each IO operation. Instead of registering devices, we now register ranges which points to a device. Lookup is done using an efficient bsearch instead of a linear search. Performance test was conducted by comparing exit count per second with 200 ioeventfds created on one byte and the guest is trying to access a different byte continuously (triggering usermode exits). Before the patch the guest has achieved 259k exits per second, after the patch the guest does 274k exits per second.

2011-07-14KVM: Steal time implementationGlauber Costa1-0/+1
To implement steal time, we need the hypervisor to pass the guest information about how much time was spent running other processes outside the VM, while the vcpu had meaningful work to do - halt time does not count. This information is acquired through the run_delay field of delayacct/schedstats infrastructure, that counts time spent in a runqueue but not running. Steal time is a per-cpu information, so the traditional MSR-based infrastructure is used. A new msr, KVM_MSR_STEAL_TIME, holds the memory area address containing information about steal time This patch contains the hypervisor part of the steal time infrasructure, and can be backported independently of the guest portion.

2011-05-22KVM: make guest mode entry to be rcu quiescent stateGleb Natapov1-0/+9
KVM does not hold any references to rcu protected data when it switches CPU into a guest mode. In fact switching to a guest mode is very similar to exiting to userspase from rcu point of view. In addition CPU may stay in a guest mode for quite a long time (up to one time slice). Lets treat guest mode as quiescent state, just like we do with user-mode execution.

2011-05-21KVM: Use pci_store/load_saved_state() around VM device usageAlex Williamson1-0/+1
Store the device saved state so that we can reload the device back to the original state when it's unassigned. This has the benefit that the state survives across pci_reset_function() calls via the PCI sysfs reset interface while the VM is using the device.

2011-05-11KVM: Fix off by one in kvm_for_each_vcpu iterationJeff Mahoney1-3/+4
This patch avoids gcc issuing the following warning when KVM_MAX_VCPUS=1: warning: array subscript is above array bounds kvm_for_each_vcpu currently checks to see if the index for the vcpu is valid /after/ loading it. We don't run into problems because the address is still inside the enclosing struct kvm and we never deference or write to it, so this isn't a security issue. The warning occurs when KVM_MAX_VCPUS=1 because the increment portion of the loop will *always* cause the loop to load an invalid location since ++idx will always be > 0. This patch moves the load so that the check occurs before the load and we don't run into the compiler warning.
