Andre Przywara bd22f5cfcf KVM: move and fix substitue search for missing CPUID entries
If KVM cannot find an exact match for a requested CPUID leaf, the
code will try to find the closest match instead of simply confessing
it's failure.
The implementation was meant to satisfy the CPUID specification, but
did not properly check for extended and standard leaves and also
didn't account for the index subleaf.
Beside that this rule only applies to CPUID intercepts, which is not
the only user of the kvm_find_cpuid_entry() function.

So fix this algorithm and call it from kvm_emulate_cpuid().
This fixes a crash of newer Linux kernels as KVM guests on
AMD Bulldozer CPUs, where bogus values were returned in response to
a CPUID intercept.

Andre Przywara 20800bc940 KVM: fix XSAVE bit scanning
When KVM scans the 0xD CPUID leaf for propagating the XSAVE save area
leaves, it assumes that the leaves are contigious and stops at the
first zero one. On AMD hardware there is a gap, though, as LWP uses
leaf 62 to announce it's state save area.
So lets iterate through all 64 possible leaves and simply skip zero
ones to also cover later features.

Currently vm86 task is initialized on each real mode entry and vcpu
reset. Initialization is done by zeroing TSS and updating relevant
fields. But since all vcpus are using the same TSS there is a race where
one vcpu may use TSS while other vcpu is initializing it, so the vcpu
that uses TSS will see wrong TSS content and will behave incorrectly.

Avi Kivity bd3d1ec3d2 KVM: SVM: check for progress after IRET interception
When we enable an NMI window, we ask for an IRET intercept, since
the IRET re-enables NMIs.  However, the IRET intercept happens before
the instruction executes, while the NMI window architecturally opens
afterwards.

To compensate for this mismatch, we only open the NMI window in the
following exit, assuming that the IRET has by then executed; however,
this assumption is not always correct; we may exit due to a host interrupt
or page fault, without having executed the instruction.

Fix by checking for forward progress by recording and comparing the IRET's
rip.  This is somewhat of a hack, since an unchaging rip does not mean that
no forward progress has been made, but is the simplest fix for now.

Avi Kivity f86368493e KVM: Fix race between nmi injection and enabling nmi window
The interrupt injection logic looks something like

  if an nmi is pending, and nmi injection allowed
    inject nmi
  if an nmi is pending
    request exit on nmi window

the problem is that "nmi is pending" can be set asynchronously by
the PIT; if it happens to fire between the two if statements, we
will request an nmi window even though nmi injection is allowed.  On
SVM, this has disasterous results, since it causes eflags.TF to be
set in random guest code.

The fix is simple; make nmi_pending synchronous using the standard
vcpu->requests mechanism; this ensures the code above is completely
synchronous wrt nmi_pending.

john cooper 91c9c3eda4 KVM: x86: handle guest access to BBL_CR_CTL3 MSR
A correction to Intel cpu model CPUID data (patch queued)
caused winxp to BSOD when booted with a Penryn model.
This was traced to the CPUID "model" field correction from
6 -> 23 (as is proper for a Penryn class of cpu).  Only in
this case does the problem surface.

The cause for this failure is winxp accessing the BBL_CR_CTL3
MSR which is unsupported by current kvm, appears to be a
legacy MSR not fully characterized yet existing in current
silicon, and is apparently carried forward in MSR space to
accommodate vintage code as here.  It is not yet conclusive
whether this MSR implements any of its legacy functionality
or is just an ornamental dud for compatibility.  While I
found no silicon version specific documentation link to
this MSR, a general description exists in Intel's developer's
reference which agrees with the functional behavior of
other bootloader/kernel code I've examined accessing
BBL_CR_CTL3.  Regrettably winxp appears to be setting bit #19
called out as "reserved" in the above document.

So to minimally accommodate this MSR, kvm msr get will provide
the equivalent mock data and kvm msr write will simply toss the
guest passed data without interpretation.  While this treatment
of BBL_CR_CTL3 addresses the immediate problem, the approach may
be modified pending clarification from Intel.

On some CPUs, a ple_gap of 41 is simply insufficient to ever trigger
PLE exits, even with the minimalistic PLE test from kvm-unit-tests.

http://git.kernel.org/?p=virt/kvm/kvm-unit-tests.git;a=commitdiff;h=eda71b28fa122203e316483b35f37aaacd42f545

For example, the Xeon X5670 CPU needs a ple_gap of at least 48 in
order to get pause loop exits:

# modprobe kvm_intel ple_gap=47
# taskset 1 /usr/local/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 \
  -device testdev,chardev=log -chardev stdio,id=log \
  -kernel x86/vmexit.flat -append ple-round-robin -smp 2
VNC server running on `::1:5900'
enabling apic
enabling apic
ple-round-robin 58298446
# rmmod kvm_intel
# modprobe kvm_intel ple_gap=48
# taskset 1 /usr/local/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 \
   -device testdev,chardev=log -chardev stdio,id=log \
   -kernel x86/vmexit.flat -append ple-round-robin -smp 2
VNC server running on `::1:5900'
enabling apic
enabling apic
ple-round-robin 36616

Increase the ple_gap to 128 to be on the safe side.

Avi Kivity a917949935 KVM: VMX: Avoid leaking fake realmode state to userspace
When emulating real mode, we fake some state:

 - tr.base points to a fake vm86 tss
 - segment registers are made to conform to vm86 restrictions

change vmx_get_segment() not to expose this fake state to userspace;
instead, return the original state.

Avi Kivity d0ba64f9b4 KVM: VMX: Save and restore tr selector across mode switches
When emulating real mode we play with tr hidden state, but leave
tr.selector alone.  That works well, except for save/restore, since
loading TR writes it to the hidden state in vmx->rmode.

Fix by also saving and restoring the tr selector; this makes things
more consistent and allows migration to work during the early
boot stages of Windows XP.

Joerg Roedel 2c46d2aec0 KVM: SVM: Advance instruction pointer in dr_intercept
In the dr_intercept function a new cpu-feature called
decode-assists is implemented and used when available. This
code-path does not advance the guest-rip causing the guest
to dead-loop over mov-dr instructions. This is fixed by this
patch.

Joerg Roedel 893a5ab6ee KVM: SVM: Make sure KERNEL_GS_BASE is valid when loading gs_index
The gs_index loading code uses the swapgs instruction to
switch to the user gs_base temporarily. This is unsave in an
lightweight exit-path in KVM on AMD because the
KERNEL_GS_BASE MSR is switches lazily. An NMI happening in
the critical path of load_gs_index may use the wrong GS_BASE
value then leading to unpredictable behavior, e.g. a
triple-fault.

This patch fixes the issue by making sure that load_gs_index
is called only with a valid KERNEL_GS_BASE value loaded in
KVM.

Andrea Arcangeli 8ee53820ed thp: mmu_notifier_test_young
For GRU and EPT, we need gup-fast to set referenced bit too (this is why
it's correct to return 0 when shadow_access_mask is zero, it requires
gup-fast to set the referenced bit).  qemu-kvm access already sets the
young bit in the pte if it isn't zero-copy, if it's zero copy or a shadow
paging EPT minor fault we relay on gup-fast to signal the page is in
use...

We also need to check the young bits on the secondary pagetables for NPT
and not nested shadow mmu as the data may never get accessed again by the
primary pte.

Without this closer accuracy, we'd have to remove the heuristic that
avoids collapsing hugepages in hugepage virtual regions that have not even
a single subpage in use.

->test_young is full backwards compatible with GRU and other usages that
don't have young bits in pagetables set by the hardware and that should
nuke the secondary mmu mappings when ->clear_flush_young runs just like
EPT does.

Removing the heuristic that checks the young bit in
khugepaged/collapse_huge_page completely isn't so bad either probably but
I thought it was worth it and this makes it reliable.
