Phil Dennis-Jordan 9954a1582e x86-KVM: Supply TSC and APIC clock rates to guest like VMWare
This fixes timekeeping of x86-64 Darwin/OS X/macOS guests when using KVM.

Darwin/OS X/macOS for x86-64 uses the TSC for timekeeping; it normally calibrates this by querying various clock frequency scaling MSRs. Details depend on the exact CPU model detected. The local APIC timer frequency is extracted from (EFI) firmware.

This is problematic in the presence of virtualisation, as the MSRs in question are typically not handled by the hypervisor. VMWare (Fusion) advertises TSC and APIC frequency via a custom 0x40000010 CPUID leaf, in the eax and ebx registers respectively. This is documented at https://lwn.net/Articles/301888/ among other places.

Darwin/OS X/macOS looks for the generic 0x40000000 hypervisor leaf, and if this indicates via eax that leaf 0x40000010 might be available, that is in turn queried for the two frequencies.

This adds a CPU option "vmware-cpuid-freq" to enable the same behaviour when running Qemu with KVM acceleration, if the KVM TSC frequency can be determined, and it is stable. (invtsc or user-specified) The virtualised APIC bus cycle is hardcoded to 1GHz in KVM, so ebx of the CPUID leaf is also hardcoded to this value.

Alex Bennée 1f5c00cfdb qom/cpu: move tlb_flush to cpu_common_reset
It is a common thing amongst the various cpu reset functions want to
flush the SoftMMU's TLB entries. This is done either by calling
tlb_flush directly or by way of a general memset of the CPU
structure (sometimes both).

This moves the tlb_flush call to the common reset function and
additionally ensures it is only done for the CONFIG_SOFTMMU case and
when tcg is enabled.

In some target cases we add an empty end_of_reset_fields structure to the
target vCPU structure so have a clear end point for any memset which
is resetting value in the structure before CPU_COMMON (where the TLB
structures are).

While this is a nice clean-up in general it is also a precursor for
changes coming to cputlb for MTTCG where the clearing of entries
can't be done arbitrarily across vCPUs. Currently the cpu_reset
function is usually called from the context of another vCPU as the
architectural power up sequence is run. By using the cputlb API
functions we can ensure the right behaviour in the future.

Kirill A. Shutemov 6c7c3c21f9 x86: implement la57 paging mode
The new paging more is extension of IA32e mode with more additional page
table level.

It brings support of 57-bit vitrual address space (128PB) and 52-bit
physical address space (4PB).

The structure of new page table level is identical to pml4.

The feature is enumerated with CPUID.(EAX=07H, ECX=0):ECX[bit 16].

CR4.LA57[bit 12] need to be set when pageing enables to activate 5-level
paging mode.

Thomas Huth fcf5ef2ab5 Move target-* CPU file into a target/ folder
We've currently got 18 architectures in QEMU, and thus 18 target-xxx
folders in the root folder of the QEMU source tree. More architectures
(e.g. RISC-V, AVR) are likely to be included soon, too, so the main
folder of the QEMU sources slowly gets quite overcrowded with the
target-xxx folders.
To disburden the main folder a little bit, let's move the target-xxx
folders into a dedicated target/ folder, so that target-xxx/ simply
becomes target/xxx/ instead.
