Intel's VMX is daft and resets the hidden TSS limit register to 0x67
on VMX reload, and the 0x67 is not configurable. KVM currently
reloads TR using the LTR instruction on every exit, but this is quite
slow because LTR is serializing.
The 0x67 limit is entirely harmless unless ioperm() is in use, so
defer the reload until a task using ioperm() is actually running.
Here's some poorly done benchmarking using kvm-unit-tests:

cpuid 1313

Historically, the entire TSS + io bitmap structure was cacheline
aligned, but commit ca241c75037b ("x86: unify tss_struct") changed it
(presumably inadvertently) so that the fixed-layout hardware part is
cacheline-aligned and the io bitmap is after the padding. This wastes
24 bytes (the hardware part should be 104 bytes, but this pads it to
128 bytes) and, serves no purpose, and causes sizeof(struct
x86_hw_tss) to have a confusing value.
Drop the pointless alignment.

Use actual pointer types for pointers (instead of unsigned long) and
replace hardcoded constants with the appropriate self-documenting
macros.
The function is still a bit messy, but this seems a lot better than
before to me.
This is mostly borrowed from a patch by Thomas Garnier.

It was a bit buggy (it didn't list all segment types that needed
64-bit fixups), but the bug was irrelevant because it wasn't called
in any interesting context on 64-bit kernels and was only used for
data segents on 32-bit kernels.
To avoid confusion, make it explicitly 32-bit only.

The current CPU's TSS base is a foregone conclusion, so there's no need
to parse it out of the segment tables. This should save a couple cycles
(as STR is surely microcoded and poorly optimized) but, more importantly,
it's a cleanup and it means that segment_base() will never be called on
64-bit kernels.

Paul Mackerras writes:
"Please do a pull from my kvm-ppc-next branch to get some fixes which I
would like to have in 4.11. There are four small commits there; two
are fixes for potential host crashes in the new HPT resizing code, and
the other two are changes to printks to make KVM on PPC a little less
noisy."
|
|
The new HPT resizing code added in commit b5baa6877315 ("KVM: PPC:
Book3S HV: KVM-HV HPT resizing implementation", 2016-12-20) doesn't
have code to handle the new HPTE format which POWER9 uses. Thus it
would be best not to advertise it to userspace on POWER9 systems
until it works properly.
Also, since resize_hpt_rehash_hpte() contains BUG_ON() calls that
could be hit on POWER9, let's prevent it from being called on POWER9
for now.

The purpose of the KVM_SET_SIGNAL_MASK API is to let userspace "kick"
a VCPU out of KVM_RUN through a POSIX signal. A signal is attached
to a dummy signal handler; by blocking the signal outside KVM_RUN and
unblocking it inside, this possible race is closed:
VCPU thread service thread
--------------------------------------------------------------
check flag
set flag
raise signal
(signal handler does nothing)
KVM_RUN
However, one issue with KVM_SET_SIGNAL_MASK is that it has to take
tsk->sighand->siglock on every KVM_RUN. This lock is often on a
remote NUMA node, because it is on the node of a thread's creator.
Taking this lock can be very expensive if there are many userspace
exits (as is the case for SMP Windows VMs without Hyper-V reference
time counter).
As an alternative, we can put the flag directly in kvm_run so that
KVM can see it:
VCPU thread service thread
--------------------------------------------------------------
raise signal
signal handler
set run->immediate_exit
KVM_RUN
check run->immediate_exit

resize_hpt_release(), called once the HPT resize of a KVM guest is
completed (successfully or unsuccessfully) frees the state structure for
the resize. It is currently not safe to call with a NULL pointer.
However, one of the error paths in kvm_vm_ioctl_resize_hpt_commit() can
invoke it with a NULL pointer. This will occur if userspace improperly
invokes KVM_PPC_RESIZE_HPT_COMMIT without previously calling
KVM_PPC_RESIZE_HPT_PREPARE, or if it calls COMMIT twice without an
intervening PREPARE.
To fix this potential crash bug - and maybe others like it, make it safe
(and a no-op) to call resize_hpt_release() with a NULL resize pointer.

Since bf9f6ac8d749 ("KVM: Update Posted-Interrupts Descriptor when vCPU
is blocked", 2015-09-18) the posted interrupt descriptor is checked
unconditionally for PIR.ON. Therefore we don't need KVM_REQ_EVENT to
trigger the scan and, if NMIs or SMIs are not involved, we can avoid
the complicated event injection path.
Calling kvm_vcpu_kick if PIR.ON=1 is also useless, though it has been
there since APICv was introduced.
However, without the KVM_REQ_EVENT safety net KVM needs to be much
more careful about races between vmx_deliver_posted_interrupt and
vcpu_enter_guest. First, the IPI for posted interrupts may be issued
between setting vcpu->mode = IN_GUEST_MODE and disabling interrupts.
If that happens, kvm_trigger_posted_interrupt returns true, but
smp_kvm_posted_intr_ipi doesn't do anything about it. The guest is
entered with PIR.ON, but the posted interrupt IPI has not been sent
and the interrupt is only delivered to the guest on the next vmentry
(if any). To fix this, disable interrupts before setting vcpu->mode.
This ensures that the IPI is delayed until the guest enters non-root mode;
it is then trapped by the processor causing the interrupt to be injected.
Second, the IPI may be issued between kvm_x86_ops->sync_pir_to_irr(vcpu)
and vcpu->mode = IN_GUEST_MODE. In this case, kvm_vcpu_kick is called
but it (correctly) doesn't do anything because it sees vcpu->mode ==
OUTSIDE_GUEST_MODE. Again, the guest is entered with PIR.ON but no
posted interrupt IPI is pending; this time, the fix for this is to move
the RVI update after IN_GUEST_MODE.
Both issues were mostly masked by the liberal usage of KVM_REQ_EVENT,
though the second could actually happen with VT-d posted interrupts.
In both race scenarios KVM_REQ_EVENT would cancel guest entry, resulting
in another vmentry which would inject the interrupt.
This saves about 300 cycles on the self_ipi_* tests of vmexit.flat.

vcpu_run calls kvm_vcpu_running, not kvm_arch_vcpu_runnable,
and the former does not call check_nested_events.
Once KVM_REQ_EVENT is removed from the APICv interrupt injection
path, however, this would leave no place to trigger a vmexit
from L2 to L1, causing a missed interrupt delivery while in guest
mode. This is caught by the "ack interrupt on exit" test in
vmx.flat.
[This does not change the calls to check_nested_events in
inject_pending_event. That is material for a separate cleanup.]
