2008-07-20KVM: Handle virtualization instruction #UD faults during rebootAvi Kivity
KVM turns off hardware virtualization extensions during reboot, in order to disassociate the memory used by the virtualization extensions from the processor, and in order to have the system in a consistent state. Unfortunately virtual machines may still be running while this goes on, and once virtualization extensions are turned off, any virtulization instruction will #UD on execution. Fix by adding an exception handler to virtualization instructions; if we get an exception during reboot, we simply spin waiting for the reset to complete. If it's a true exception, BUG() so we can have our stack trace. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

This patch allows VMAs that contain no backing page to be used for guest memory. This is useful for assigning mmio regions to a guest. Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-07-20KVM: remove long -> void *user -> long castChristian Borntraeger
kvm_dev_ioctl casts the arg value to void __user *, just to recast it again to long. This seems unnecessary. According to objdump the binary code on x86 is unchanged by this patch. Signed-off-by: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

2008-07-06KVM: IOAPIC: Fix level-triggered irq injection hangMark McLoughlin
The "remote_irr" variable is used to indicate an interrupt which has been received by the LAPIC, but not acked. In our EOI handler, we unset remote_irr and re-inject the interrupt if the interrupt line is still asserted. However, we do not set remote_irr here, leading to a situation where if kvm_ioapic_set_irq() is called, then we go ahead and call ioapic_service(). This means that IRR is re-asserted even though the interrupt is currently in service (i.e. LAPIC IRR is cleared and ISR/TMR set) The issue with this is that when the currently executing interrupt handler finishes and writes LAPIC EOI, then TMR is unset and EOI sent to the IOAPIC. Since IRR is now asserted, but TMR is not, then when the second interrupt is handled, no EOI is sent and if there is any pending interrupt, it is not re-injected. This fixes a hang only seen while running mke2fs -j on an 8Gb virtio disk backed by a fully sparse raw file, with aliguori "avoid fragmented virtio-blk transfers by copying" changes.

2008-06-24KVM: ioapic: fix lost interrupt when changing a device's irqAvi Kivity
The ioapic acknowledge path translates interrupt vectors to irqs. It currently uses a first match algorithm, stopping when it finds the first redirection table entry containing the vector. That fails however if the guest changes the irq to a different line, leaving the old redirection table entry in place (though masked). Result is interrupts not making it to the guest. Fix by always scanning the entire redirection table. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2008-06-06KVM: IOAPIC: only set remote_irr if interrupt was injectedMarcelo Tosatti
There's a bug in the IOAPIC code for level-triggered interrupts. Its relatively easy to trigger by sharing (virtio-blk + usbtablet was the testcase, initially reported by Gerd von Egidy). The "remote_irr" variable is used to indicate accepted but not yet acked interrupts. Its cleared from the EOI handler. Problem is that the EOI handler clears remote_irr unconditionally, even if it reinjected another pending interrupt. In that case, kvm_ioapic_set_irq() proceeds to ioapic_service() which sets remote_irr even if it failed to inject (since the IRR was high due to EOI reinjection). Since the TMR bit has been cleared by the first EOI, the second one fails to clear remote_irr. End result is interrupt line dead. Fix it by setting remote_irr only if a new pending interrupt has been generated (and the TMR bit for vector in question set).

2008-05-18KVM: Fix kvm_vcpu_block() task state raceMarcelo Tosatti
There's still a race in kvm_vcpu_block(), if a wake_up_interruptible() call happens before the task state is set to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE: CPU0 CPU1 kvm_vcpu_block add_wait_queue kvm_cpu_has_interrupt = 0 set interrupt if (waitqueue_active()) wake_up_interruptible() kvm_cpu_has_pending_timer kvm_arch_vcpu_runnable signal_pending set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE) schedule() Can be fixed by using prepare_to_wait() which sets the task state before testing for the wait condition.

a) none of the callers even looks at inode or file returned by anon_inode_getfd() b) any caller that would try to look at those would be racy, since by the time it returns we might have raced with close() from another thread and that file would be pining for fjords.

Use kvm own refcounting instead of playing with ->filp->f_count. That will allow to get rid of a lot of crap in anon_inode_getfd() and kill a race in kvm_dev_ioctl_create_vm() (file might have been closed immediately by another thread, so ->filp might point to already freed struct file when we get around to setting it).

2008-04-27KVM: MMU: Don't assume struct page for x86Anthony Liguori
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.
