2011-07-24KVM guest: KVM Steal time registrationGlauber Costa
This patch implements the kvm bits of the steal time infrastructure. The most important part of it, is the steal time clock. It is an continuous clock that shows the accumulated amount of steal time since vcpu creation. It is supposed to survive cpu offlining/onlining.

2011-07-14KVM: Steal time implementationGlauber Costa
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.

2011-07-12KVM: KVM Steal time guest/host interfaceGlauber Costa
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. This is per-vcpu, and using the kvmclock structure for that is an abuse we decided not to make. In this patchset, I am introducing a new msr, KVM_MSR_STEAL_TIME, that holds the memory area address containing information about steal time This patch contains the headers for it. I am keeping it separate to facilitate backports to people who wants to backport the kernel part but not the hypervisor, or the other way around.

2011-07-12KVM: Add constant to represent KVM MSRs enabled bit in guest/host interfaceGlauber Costa
This patch is simple, put in a different commit so it can be more easily shared between guest and hypervisor. It just defines a named constant to indicate the enable bit for KVM-specific MSRs.

2011-01-12KVM: Handle async PF in a guest.Gleb Natapov
When async PF capability is detected hook up special page fault handler that will handle async page fault events and bypass other page faults to regular page fault handler. Also add async PF handling to nested SVM emulation. Async PF always generates exit to L1 where vcpu thread will be scheduled out until page is available.

2010-10-24KVM: Move kvm_guest_init out of generic codeAlexander Graf
Currently x86 is the only architecture that uses kvm_guest_init(). With PowerPC we're getting a second user, but the signature is different there and we don't need to export it, as it uses the normal kernel init framework. So let's move the x86 specific definition of that function over to the x86 specfic header file. Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
