Loading CR3 as part of emulating vmentry is different from regular CR3 loads,

* different rules are followed to check CR3 and it is desirable for the caller
to distinguish between the possible failures
* PDPTRs are not loaded if PAE paging and nested EPT are both enabled

kvm_skip_emulated_instruction calls both
kvm_x86_ops->skip_emulated_instruction and kvm_vcpu_check_singlestep,
skipping the emulated instruction and generating a trap if necessary.
Replacing skip_emulated_instruction calls with
kvm_skip_emulated_instruction is straightforward, except for:
- ICEBP, which is already inside a trap, so avoid triggering another trap.
- Instructions that can trigger exits to userspace, such as the IO insns,
MOVs to CR8, and HALT. If kvm_skip_emulated_instruction does trigger a
KVM_GUESTDBG_SINGLESTEP exit, and the handling code for
IN/OUT/MOV CR8/HALT also triggers an exit to userspace, the latter will
take precedence. The singlestep will be triggered again on the next
instruction, which is the current behavior.
- Task switch instructions which would require additional handling (e.g.
the task switch bit) and are instead left alone.
- Cases where VMLAUNCH/VMRESUME do not proceed to the next instruction,
which do not trigger singlestep traps as mentioned previously.

AMD hardware adds two additional bits to aid in nested page fault handling.
Bit 32 - NPF occurred while translating the guest's final physical address
Bit 33 - NPF occurred while translating the guest page tables
The guest page tables fault indicator can be used as an aid for nested
virtualization. Using V0 for the host, V1 for the first level guest and
V2 for the second level guest, when both V1 and V2 are using nested paging
there are currently a number of unnecessary instruction emulations. When
V2 is launched shadow paging is used in V1 for the nested tables of V2. As
a result, KVM marks these pages as RO in the host nested page tables. When
V2 exits and we resume V1, these pages are still marked RO.
Every nested walk for a guest page table is treated as a user-level write
access and this causes a lot of NPFs because the V1 page tables are marked
RO in the V0 nested tables. While executing V1, when these NPFs occur KVM
sees a write to a read-only page, emulates the V1 instruction and unprotects
the page (marking it RW). This patch looks for cases where we get a NPF due
to a guest page table walk where the page was marked RO. It immediately
unprotects the page and resumes the guest, leading to far fewer instruction
emulations when nested virtualization is used.

Since commit a545ab6a00 ("kvm: x86: add tsc_offset field to struct
kvm_vcpu_arch", 2016-09-07) the offset between host and L1 TSC is
cached and need not be fished out of the VMCS or VMCB. This means
that we can implement adjust_tsc_offset_guest and read_l1_tsc
entirely in generic code. The simplification is particularly
significant for VMX code, where vmx->nested.vmcs01_tsc_offset
was duplicating what is now in vcpu->arch.tsc_offset. Therefore
the vmcs01_tsc_offset can be dropped completely.
More importantly, this fixes KVM_GET_CLOCK/KVM_SET_CLOCK
which, after commit 108b249c45 ("KVM: x86: introduce get_kvmclock_ns",
2016-09-01) called read_l1_tsc while the VMCS was not loaded.

vms and vcpus have statistics associated with them which can be viewed
within the debugfs. Currently it is assumed within the vcpu_stat_get() and
vm_stat_get() functions that all of these statistics are represented as
u32s, however the next patch adds some u64 vcpu statistics.
Change all vcpu statistics to u64 and modify vcpu_stat_get() accordingly.
Since vcpu statistics are per vcpu, they will only be updated by a single
vcpu at a time so this shouldn't present a problem on 32-bit machines
which can't atomically increment 64-bit numbers. However vm statistics
could potentially be updated by multiple vcpus from that vm at a time.
To avoid the overhead of atomics make all vm statistics ulong such that
they are 64-bit on 64-bit systems where they can be atomically incremented
and are 32-bit on 32-bit systems which may not be able to atomically
increment 64-bit numbers. Modify vm_stat_get() to expect ulongs.

- PPC: bugfixes.
The ugly bit is the conflicts. A couple of them are simple conflicts due
to 4.7 fixes, but most of them are with other trees. There was definitely
too much reliance on Acked-by here. Some conflicts are for KVM patches
where _I_ gave my Acked-by, but the worst are for this pull request's
patches that touch files outside arch/*/kvm. KVM submaintainers should
probably learn to synchronize better with arch maintainers, with the
latter providing topic branches whenever possible instead of Acked-by.
This is what we do with arch/x86. And I should learn to refuse pull
requests when linux-next sends scary signals, even if that means that
submaintainers have to rebase their branches.
Anyhow, here's the list:
- arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c: handle_pcommit and EXIT_REASON_PCOMMIT was removed
by the nvdimm tree. This tree adds handle_preemption_timer and
EXIT_REASON_PREEMPTION_TIMER at the same place. In general all mentions
of pcommit have to go.
There is also a conflict between a stable fix and this patch, where the
stable fix removed the vmx_create_pml_buffer function and its call.
- virt/kvm/kvm_main.c: kvm_cpu_notifier was removed by the hotplug tree.
This tree adds kvm_io_bus_get_dev at the same place.
- virt/kvm/arm/vgic.c: a few final bugfixes went into 4.7 before the
file was completely removed for 4.8.
- include/linux/irqchip/arm-gic-v3.h: this one is entirely our fault;
this is a change that should have gone in through the irqchip tree and
pulled by kvm-arm. I think I would have rejected this kvm-arm pull
request. The KVM version is the right one, except that it lacks
GITS_BASER_PAGES_SHIFT.
- arch/powerpc: what a mess. For the idle_book3s.S conflict, the KVM
tree is the right one; everything else is trivial. In this case I am
not quite sure what went wrong. The commit that is causing the mess
(fd7bacbca4, "KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix TB corruption in guest exit
path on HMI interrupt", 2016-05-15) touches both arch/powerpc/kernel/
and arch/powerpc/kvm/. It's large, but at 396 insertions/5 deletions
I guessed that it wasn't really possible to split it and that the 5
deletions wouldn't conflict. That wasn't the case.
- arch/s390: also messy. First is hypfs_diag.c where the KVM tree
moved some code and the s390 tree patched it. You have to reapply the
relevant part of commits 6c22c98637, plus all of e030c1125e, to
arch/s390/kernel/diag.c. Or pick the linux-next conflict
resolution from http://marc.info/?l=kvm&m=146717549531603&w=2.
Second, there is a conflict in gmap.c between a stable fix and 4.8.
The KVM version here is the correct one.
I have pushed my resolution at refs/heads/merge-20160802 (commit

KVM_CAP_X2APIC_API is a capability for features related to x2APIC
enablement. KVM_X2APIC_API_32BIT_FORMAT feature can be enabled to
extend APIC ID in get/set ioctl and MSI addresses to 32 bits.
Both are needed to support x2APIC.
The feature has to be enableable and disabled by default, because
get/set ioctl shifted and truncated APIC ID to 8 bits by using a
non-standard protocol inspired by xAPIC and the change is not
backward-compatible.
Changes to MSI addresses follow the format used by interrupt remapping
unit. The upper address word, that used to be 0, contains upper 24 bits
of the LAPIC address in its upper 24 bits. Lower 8 bits are reserved as
0. Using the upper address word is not backward-compatible either as we
didn't check that userspace zeroed the word. Reserved bits are still

The VMX preemption timer can be used to virtualize the TSC deadline timer.
The VMX preemption timer is armed when the vCPU is running, and a VMExit
will happen if the virtual TSC deadline timer expires.
When the vCPU thread is blocked because of HLT, KVM will switch to use
an hrtimer, and then go back to the VMX preemption timer when the vCPU
thread is unblocked.
This solution avoids the complex OS's hrtimer system, and the host
timer interrupt handling cost, replacing them with a little math
(for guest->host TSC and host TSC->preemption timer conversion)
and a cheaper VMexit. This benefits latency for isolated pCPUs.
[A word about performance... Yunhong reported a 30% reduction in average
latency from cyclictest. I made a similar test with tscdeadline_latency
from kvm-unit-tests, and measured
- ~20 clock cycles loss (out of ~3200, so less than 1% but still
statistically significant) in the worst case where the test halts
just after programming the TSC deadline timer
- ~800 clock cycles gain (25% reduction in latency) in the best case
where the test busy waits.

Some wakeups should not be considered a sucessful poll. For example on
s390 I/O interrupts are usually floating, which means that _ALL_ CPUs
would be considered runnable - letting all vCPUs poll all the time for
transactional like workload, even if one vCPU would be enough.
This can result in huge CPU usage for large guests.
This patch lets architectures provide a way to qualify wakeups if they
should be considered a good/bad wakeups in regard to polls.
For s390 the implementation will fence of halt polling for anything but
known good, single vCPU events. The s390 implementation for floating
interrupts does a wakeup for one vCPU, but the interrupt will be delivered
by whatever CPU checks first for a pending interrupt. We prefer the
woken up CPU by marking the poll of this CPU as "good" poll.
This code will also mark several other wakeup reasons like IPI or
expired timers as "good". This will of course also mark some events as
not sucessful. As KVM on z runs always as a 2nd level hypervisor,
we prefer to not poll, unless we are really sure, though.
This patch successfully limits the CPU usage for cases like uperf 1byte
transactional ping pong workload or wakeup heavy workload like OLTP
while still providing a proper speedup.
This also introduced a new vcpu stat "halt_poll_no_tuning" that marks
wakeups that are considered not good for polling.

Windows lets applications choose the frequency of the timer tick,
and in Windows 10 the maximum rate was changed from 1024 Hz to
2048 Hz. Unfortunately, because of the way the Windows API
works, most applications who need a higher rate than the default
64 Hz will just do
timeGetDevCaps(&tc, sizeof(tc));
timeBeginPeriod(tc.wPeriodMin);
and pick the maximum rate. This causes very high CPU usage when
playing media or games on Windows 10, even if the guest does not
actually use the CPU very much, because the frequent timer tick
causes halt_poll_ns to kick in.
There is no really good solution, especially because Microsoft
could sooner or later bump the limit to 4096 Hz, but for now
the best we can do is lower a bit the upper limit for
halt_poll_ns. :-(

X86_FEATURE_PKU is referred to as "PKU" in the hardware documentation:
CPUID.7.0.ECX[3]:PKU. X86_FEATURE_OSPKE is software support for pkeys,
enumerated with CPUID.7.0.ECX[4]:OSPKE, and it reflects the setting of
CR4.PKE(bit 22).
This patch disables CPUID:PKU without ept, because pkeys is not yet
implemented for shadow paging.

Protection keys define a new 4-bit protection key field (PKEY) in bits
62:59 of leaf entries of the page tables, the PKEY is an index to PKRU
register(16 domains), every domain has 2 bits(write disable bit, access
disable bit).
Static logic has been produced in update_pkru_bitmask, dynamic logic need
read pkey from page table entries, get pkru value, and deduce the correct
result.

PKEYS defines a new status bit in the PFEC. PFEC.PK (bit 5), if some
conditions is true, the fault is considered as a PKU violation.
pkru_mask indicates if we need to check PKRU.ADi and PKRU.WDi, and
does cache some conditions for permission_fault.

Branch-free code is fun and everybody knows how much Avi loves it,
but last_pte_bitmap takes it a bit to the extreme. Since the code
is simply doing a range check, like
(level == 1 ||
((gpte & PT_PAGE_SIZE_MASK) && level < N)
we can make it branch-free without storing the entire truth table;
it is enough to cache N.

Notifier list is introduced so that any node wants to receive the track
event can register to the list
Two APIs are introduced here:
- kvm_page_track_register_notifier(): register the notifier to receive
track event
- kvm_page_track_unregister_notifier(): stop receiving track event by
unregister the notifier
The callback, node->track_write() is called when a write access on the
write tracked page happens

If the page fault is caused by write access on write tracked page, the
real shadow page walking is skipped, we lost the chance to clear write
flooding for the page structure current vcpu is using
Fix it by locklessly waking shadow page table to clear write flooding
on the shadow page structure out of mmu-lock. So that we change the
count to atomic_t

The array, gfn_track[mode][gfn], is introduced in memory slot for every
guest page, this is the tracking count for the gust page on different
modes. If the page is tracked then the count is increased, the page is
not tracked after the count reaches zero
We use 'unsigned short' as the tracking count which should be enough as
shadow page table only can use 2^14 (2^3 for level, 2^1 for cr4_pae, 2^2
for quadrant, 2^3 for access, 2^1 for nxe, 2^1 for cr0_wp, 2^1 for
smep_andnot_wp, 2^1 for smap_andnot_wp, and 2^1 for smm) at most, there
is enough room for other trackers
Two callbacks, kvm_page_track_create_memslot() and
kvm_page_track_free_memslot() are implemented in this patch, they are
internally used to initialize and reclaim the memory of the array
Currently, only write track mode is supported

kvm_lpage_info->write_count is used to detect if the large page mapping
for the gfn on the specified level is allowed, rename it to disallow_lpage
to reflect its purpose, also we rename has_wrprotected_page() to
mmu_gfn_lpage_is_disallowed() to make the code more clearer
Later we will extend this mechanism for page tracking: if the gfn is
tracked then large mapping for that gfn on any level is not allowed.
The new name is more straightforward
