KVM will inject a #GP into the guest if that tries to access unhandled MSRs. This will crash many guests. Although it would be the correct way to actually handle these MSRs, we introduce a runtime switchable module param called "ignore_msrs" (defaults to 0). If this is Y, unknown MSR reads will return 0, while MSR writes are simply dropped. In both cases we print a message to dmesg to inform the user about that. You can change the behaviour at any time by saying: # echo 1 > /sys/modules/kvm/parameters/ignore_msrs Signed-off-by: Andre Przywara <andre.przywara@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

If the Linux kernel detects an C1E capable AMD processor (K8 RevF and higher), it will access a certain MSR on every attempt to go to halt. Explicitly handle this read and return 0 to let KVM run a Linux guest with the native AMD host CPU propagated to the guest.

Linux tries to disable the flush filter on all AMD K8 CPUs. Since KVM does not handle the needed MSR, the injected #GP will panic the Linux kernel. Ignore setting of the HWCR.FFDIS bit in this MSR to let Linux boot with an AMD K8 family guest CPU. Signed-off-by: Andre Przywara <andre.przywara@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

Since commit 854b5338196b1175706e99d63be43a4f8d8ab607 Author: Christian Ehrhardt <ehrhardt@linux.vnet.ibm.com> KVM: s390: streamline memslot handling s390 uses the values of the memslot instead of doing everything in the arch ioctl handler of the KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION. Unfortunately we missed to set the userspace_addr of our memslot due to our s390 ifdef in __kvm_set_memory_region. Old s390 userspace launchers did not notice, since they started the guest at userspace address 0. Because of CONFIG_DEFAULT_MMAP_MIN_ADDR we now put the guest at 1M userspace, which does not work. This patch makes sure that new.userspace_addr is set on s390. This fix should go in quickly. Nevertheless, looking at the code we should clean up that ifdef in the long term. Any kernel janitors?

While trying to get Hyper-V running, I realized that the interrupt injection mechanisms that are in place right now are not 100% correct.

SVM adds another way to do INVLPG by ASID which Hyper-V makes use of, so let's implement it! For now we just do the same thing invlpg does, as asid switching means we flush the mmu anyways.

The current code tries to optimize the setting of KVM_REQ_PENDING_TIMER but used atomic_inc_and_test - which always returns true unless pending had the invalid value of -1 on entry. This patch drops the test part preserving the original semantic but expressing it less confusingly. Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

Jan Kiszka authored
Minor issue that likely had no practical relevance: the kvm timer function so far incremented the pending counter and then may reset it again to 1 in case reinjection was disabled. This opened a small racy window with the corresponding VCPU loop that may have happened to run on another (real) CPU and already consumed the value. Fix it by skipping the incrementation in case pending is already > 0. This opens a different race windows, but may only rarely cause lost events in case we do not care about them anyway (!reinject).

Most of the time IRR is empty, so instead of scanning the whole IRR on each VM entry keep a variable that tells us if IRR is not empty. IRR will have to be scanned twice on each IRQ delivery, but this is much more rare than VM entry. Signed-off-by: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

The performance counter MSRs are different for AMD and Intel CPUs and they are chosen mainly by the CPUID vendor string. This patch catches writes to all addresses (regardless of VMX/SVM path) and handles them in the generic MSR handler routine. Writing a 0 into the event select register is something we perfectly emulate ;-), so don't print out a warning to dmesg in this case. This fixes booting a 64bit Windows guest with an AMD CPUID on an Intel host. Signed-off-by: Andre Przywara <andre.przywara@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

-
Marcelo Tosatti authored
Under testing, count_writable_mappings returns a value that is 2 integers larger than what count_rmaps returns. Suspicion is that either of the two functions is counting a duplicate (either positively or negatively). Modifying check_writable_mappings_rmap to check for rmap existance on all present MMU pages fails to trigger an error, which should keep Avi happy. Also introduce mmu_spte_walk to invoke a callback on all present sptes visible to the current vcpu, might be useful in the future.
