2007-07-16KVM: Consolidate guest fpu activation and deactivationAvi Kivity
Easier to keep track of where the fpu is this way. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-07-16KVM: Rationalize exception bitmap usageAvi Kivity
Everyone owns a piece of the exception bitmap, but they happily write to the entire thing like there's no tomorrow. Centralize handling in update_exception_bitmap() and have everyone call that. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-07-16KVM: Move some more msr mangling into vmx_save_host_state()Avi Kivity
Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-07-16KVM: Fix potential guest state leak into hostAvi Kivity
The lightweight vmexit path avoids saving and reloading certain host state. However in certain cases lightweight vmexit handling can schedule() which requires reloading the host state. So we store the host state in the vcpu structure, and reloaded it if we relinquish the vcpu. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-07-16KVM: Increase mmu shadow cache to 1024 pagesAvi Kivity
This improves kbuild times by about 10%, bringing it within a respectable 25% of native. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-07-16KVM: Update shadow pte on write to guest pteAvi Kivity
A typical demand page/copy on write pattern is: - page fault on vaddr - kvm propagates fault to guest - guest handles fault, updates pte - kvm traps write, clears shadow pte, resumes guest - guest returns to userspace, re-faults on same vaddr - kvm installs shadow pte, resumes guest - guest continues So, three vmexits for a single guest page fault. But if instead of clearing the page table entry, we update to correspond to the value that the guest has just written, we eliminate the third vmexit. This patch does exactly that, reducing kbuild time by about 10%. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-07-16KVM: MMU: Respect nonpae pagetable quadrant when zapping ptesAvi Kivity
When a guest writes to a page that has an mmu shadow, we have to clear the shadow pte corresponding to the memory location touched by the guest. Now, in nonpae mode, a single guest page may have two or four shadow pages (because a nonpae page maps 4MB or 4GB, whereas the pae shadow maps 2MB or 1GB), so we when we look up the page we find up to three additional aliases for the page. Since we _clear_ the shadow pte, it doesn't matter except for a slight performance penalty, but if we want to _update_ the shadow pte instead of clearing it, it is vital that we don't modify the aliases. Fortunately, exactly which page is needed (the "quadrant") is easily computed, and is accessible in the shadow page header. All we need is to ignore shadow pages from the wrong quadrants.

2007-07-16KVM: Unify kvm_mmu_pre_write() and kvm_mmu_post_write()Avi Kivity
Instead of calling two functions and repeating expensive checks, call one function and provide it with before/after information. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-07-16KVM: Be more careful restoring fs on lightweight vmexitAvi Kivity
i386 wants fs for accessing the pda even on a lightweight exit, so ensure we can always restore it. This fixes a regression on i386 introduced by the lightweight vmexit patch. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-07-16KVM: Reduce misfirings of the fork detectorAvi Kivity
The kvm mmu tries to detects forks by looking for repeated writes to a page table. If it sees a fork, it unshadows the page table so the page table copying can proceed at native speed instead of being emulated. However, the detector also triggered on simple demand paging access patterns: a linear walk of memory would of course cause repeated writes to the same pagetable page, causing it to unshadow prematurely. Fix by resetting the fork detector if we detect a demand fault. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-07-16KVM: Unindent some codeAvi Kivity
Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-07-16KVM: Avoid saving and restoring some host CPU state on lightweight vmexitAvi Kivity
Many msrs and the like will only be used by the host if we schedule() or return to userspace. Therefore, we avoid saving them if we handle the exit within the kernel, and if a reschedule is not requested. Based on a patch from Eddie Dong <eddie.dong@intel.com> with a couple of fixes by me. Signed-off-by: Yaozu(Eddie) Dong <eddie.dong@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-07-16KVM: Assume that writes smaller than 4 bytes are to non-pagetable pagesAvi Kivity
This allows us to remove write protection earlier than otherwise. Should some mad OS choose to use byte writes to update pagetables, it will suffer a performance hit, but still work correctly. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-07-16KVM: SVM: Allow direct guest access to PC debug portAnthony Liguori
The PC debug port is used for IO delay and does not require emulation. Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
2007-07-16KVM: VMX: Enable io bitmaps to avoid IO port 0x80 VMEXITsHe, Qing
This patch enables IO bitmaps control on vmx and unmask the 0x80 port to avoid VMEXITs caused by accessing port 0x80. 0x80 is used as delays (see include/asm/io.h), and handling VMEXITs on its access is unnecessary but slows things down. This patch improves kernel build test at around 3%~5%. Because every VM uses the same io bitmap, it is shared between all VMs rather than a per-VM data structure.

It depends on tristate I2C and it's trivial to make modular.

2007-07-15pda_power: clean up irq, timerJeff Garzik
Clean up pda_power interrupt handling: Prior to this patch, the driver would pass information it needed to the interrupt handler dev_id pointer, and then prompt forget it ever did so, recreating that same information after a couple passes through the timer-based state machine. This patch removes the redundant checks by passing the pda_power_supply[] pointer through the state machine. The current code passed 'irq' through the state machine, as an index to recreate the pointer, when we could more simply pass around the pointer itself. This patch makes it easier to remove the 'irq' argument in the future, in addition to cleaning up the driver today. Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
