KVM turns off hardware virtualization extensions during reboot, in order
to disassociate the memory used by the virtualization extensions from the
processor, and in order to have the system in a consistent state.
Unfortunately virtual machines may still be running while this goes on,
and once virtualization extensions are turned off, any virtulization
instruction will #UD on execution.
Fix by adding an exception handler to virtualization instructions; if we get
an exception during reboot, we simply spin waiting for the reset to complete.
If it's a true exception, BUG() so we can have our stack trace.

The KVM MMU tries to detect when a speculative pte update is not actually
used by demand fault, by checking the accessed bit of the shadow pte. If
the shadow pte has not been accessed, we deem that page table flooded and
remove the shadow page table, allowing further pte updates to proceed
without emulation.
However, if the pte itself points at a page table and only used for write
operations, the accessed bit will never be set since all access will happen
through the emulator.
This is exactly what happens with kscand on old (2.4.x) HIGHMEM kernels.
The kernel points a kmap_atomic() pte at a page table, and then
proceeds with read-modify-write operations to look at the dirty and accessed
bits. We get a false flood trigger on the kmap ptes, which results in the
mmu spending all its time setting up and tearing down shadows.
Fix by setting the shadow accessed bit on emulated accesses.

Attached is a patch that fixes a guest crash when booting older Linux kernels.
The problem stems from the fact that we are currently emulating
MSR_K7_EVNTSEL[0-3], but not emulating MSR_K7_PERFCTR[0-3]. Because of this,
setup_k7_watchdog() in the Linux kernel receives a GPF when it attempts to
write into MSR_K7_PERFCTR, which causes an OOPs.
The patch fixes it by just "fake" emulating the appropriate MSRs, throwing
away the data in the process. This causes the NMI watchdog to not actually
work, but it's not such a big deal in a virtualized environment.
When we get a write to one of these counters, we printk_ratelimit() a warning.
I decided to print it out for all writes, even if the data is 0; it doesn't
seem to make sense to me to special case when data == 0.
Tested by myself on a RHEL-4 guest, and Joerg Roedel on a Windows XP 64-bit
guest.

The in-kernel PIT emulation ignores pending timers if operating
under mode 3, which for example Hurd uses.
This mode should output a square wave, high for (N+1)/2 counts and low
for (N-1)/2 counts. As we only care about the resulting interrupts, the
period is N, and mode 3 is the same as mode 2 with regard to
interrupts.

make function tracing more robust: do not trace library functions.
We've already got a sizable list of exceptions:
ifdef CONFIG_FTRACE
# Do not profile string.o, since it may be used in early boot or vdso
CFLAGS_REMOVE_string.o = -pg
# Also do not profile any debug utilities
CFLAGS_REMOVE_spinlock_debug.o = -pg
CFLAGS_REMOVE_list_debug.o = -pg
CFLAGS_REMOVE_debugobjects.o = -pg
CFLAGS_REMOVE_find_next_bit.o = -pg
CFLAGS_REMOVE_cpumask.o = -pg
CFLAGS_REMOVE_bitmap.o = -pg
endif
... and the pattern has been that random library functionality showed
up in ftrace's critical path (outside of its recursion check), causing
hard to debug lockups.
So be a bit defensive about it and exclude all lib/*.o functions by
default. It's not that they are overly interesting for tracing purposes
anyway. Specific ones can still be traced, in an opt-in manner.

This fixes an arcane bug that we think was a regression introduced
by commit b2b2cbc4b2. When a parent
ignores SIGCHLD (or uses SA_NOCLDWAIT), its children would self-reap
but they don't if it's using ptrace on them. When the parent thread
later exits and ceases to ptrace a child but leaves other live
threads in the parent's thread group, any zombie children are left
dangling. The fix makes them self-reap then, as they would have
done earlier if ptrace had not been in use.

This reverts the effect of commit f2cc3eb133
"do_wait: fix security checks". That change reverted the effect of commit
7324328446. The rationale for the original
commit still stands. The inconsistent treatment of children hidden by
ptrace was an unintended omission in the original change and in no way
invalidates its purpose.
This makes do_wait return the error returned by security_task_wait()
(usually -EACCES) in place of -ECHILD when there are some children the
caller would be able to wait for if not for the permission failure. A
permission error will give the user a clue to look for security policy
problems, rather than for mysterious wait bugs.

ptrace no longer fiddles with the children/sibling links, and the
old ptrace_children list is gone. Now ptrace, whether of one's own
children or another's via PTRACE_ATTACH, just uses the new ptraced
list instead.
There should be no user-visible difference that matters. The only
change is the order in which do_wait() sees multiple stopped
children and stopped ptrace attachees. Since wait_task_stopped()
was changed earlier so it no longer reorders the children list, we
already know this won't cause any new problems.

This breaks out the guts of do_wait into three subfunctions.

In an ocfs2 cluster more than 1 node, run program mmap_truncate, which races
mmap writes and truncates from multiple processes. While the test is
running, a stat from another node forces writeout, causing an oops in
ocfs2_get_block() because it sees a buffer to write which isn't allocated.
