If the time stamp counter goes backwards, a guest delay loop can become
infinite. This can happen if a vcpu is migrated to another cpu, where
the counter has a lower value than the first cpu.
Since we're doing an IPI to the first cpu anyway, we can use that to pick
up the old tsc, and use that to calculate the adjustment we need to make

When a vcpu causes a shadow tlb entry to have reduced permissions, it
must also clear the tlb on remote vcpus. We do that by:

- if the vcpu is currently executing, we send an ipi to make sure it
exits before we continue

A typical demand page/copy on write pattern is:
- page fault on vaddr
- kvm propagates fault to guest
- guest handles fault, updates pte
- kvm traps write, clears shadow pte, resumes guest
- guest returns to userspace, re-faults on same vaddr
- kvm installs shadow pte, resumes guest
- guest continues
So, three vmexits for a single guest page fault. But if instead of clearing
the page table entry, we update to correspond to the value that the guest
has just written, we eliminate the third vmexit.
This patch does exactly that, reducing kbuild time by about 10%.

When a guest writes to a page that has an mmu shadow, we have to clear
the shadow pte corresponding to the memory location touched by the guest.
Now, in nonpae mode, a single guest page may have two or four shadow
pages (because a nonpae page maps 4MB or 4GB, whereas the pae shadow maps
2MB or 1GB), so we when we look up the page we find up to three additional
aliases for the page. Since we _clear_ the shadow pte, it doesn't matter
except for a slight performance penalty, but if we want to _update_ the
shadow pte instead of clearing it, it is vital that we don't modify the
aliases.
Fortunately, exactly which page is needed (the "quadrant") is easily
computed, and is accessible in the shadow page header. All we need is
to ignore shadow pages from the wrong quadrants.

The kvm mmu tries to detects forks by looking for repeated writes to a
page table. If it sees a fork, it unshadows the page table so the page
table copying can proceed at native speed instead of being emulated.
However, the detector also triggered on simple demand paging access patterns:
a linear walk of memory would of course cause repeated writes to the same
pagetable page, causing it to unshadow prematurely.

mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why.
This patch
a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h
b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c
c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation
d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly.
e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were

Net result is:
a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if
they don't need sched.h
b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files:

Usually, guest page faults are detected by the kvm page fault handler,
which detects if they are shadow faults, mmio faults, pagetable faults,

However, in ceratin circumstances, we can detect a page fault much later.
One of these events is the following combination:
- A two memory operand instruction (e.g. movsb) is executed.
- The first operand is in mmio space (which is the fault reported to kvm)
- The second operand is in an ummaped address (e.g. a guest page fault)

On x86, bit operations operate on a string of bits that can reside in
multiple words. For example, 'btsl %eax, (blah)' will touch the word
at blah+4 if %eax is between 32 and 63.
The x86 emulator compensates for that by advancing the operand address
by (bit offset / BITS_PER_LONG) and truncating the bit offset to the
range (0..BITS_PER_LONG-1). This has a side effect of forcing the operand
size to 8 bytes on 64-bit hosts.
Now, a 32-bit guest goes and fork()s a process. It write protects a stack
page at 0xbffff000 using the 'btr' instruction, at offset 0xffc in the page
table, with bit offset 1 (for the write permission bit).
The emulator now forces the operand size to 8 bytes as previously described,
and an innocent page table update turns into a cross-page-boundary write,
which is assumed by the mmu code not to be a page table, so it doesn't
actually clear the corresponding shadow page table entry. The guest and
host permissions are out of sync and guest memory is corrupted soon
afterwards, leading to guest failure.
Fix by not using BITS_PER_LONG as the word size; instead use the actual
operand size, so we get a 32-bit write in that case.
Note we still have to teach the mmu to handle cross-page-boundary writes
to guest page table; but for now this allows Damn Small Linux 0.4 (2.4.20)
to boot.

The kvm mmu keeps a shadow page for hugepage pdes; if several such pdes map
the same physical address, they share the same shadow page. This is a fairly
common case (kernel mappings on i386 nonpae Linux, for example).
However, if the two pdes map the same memory but with different permissions, kvm
will happily use the cached shadow page. If the access through the more
permissive pde will occur after the access to the strict pde, an endless pagefault

KVM used to handle cpuid by letting userspace decide what values to

userspace set up the value table beforehand (this is necessary to allow
management software to set the cpu features to the least common denominator,
so that live migration can work).

Currently when passing the a PIO emulation request to userspace, we
rely on userspace updating %rax (on 'in' instructions) and %rsi/%rdi/%rcx
(on string instructions). This (a) requires two extra ioctls for getting
and setting the registers and (b) is unfriendly to non-x86 archs, when
they get kvm ports.
So fix by doing the register fixups in the kernel and passing to userspace
only an abstract description of the PIO to be done.

Nonpae guest pdes are shadowed by two pae ptes, so we double the offset
twice: once to account for the pte size difference, and once because we
need to shadow pdes for a single guest pde.
But when writing to the upper guest pde we also need to truncate the
lower bits, otherwise the multiply shifts these bits into the pde index
and causes an access to the wrong shadow pde. If we're at the end of the
page (accessing the very last guest pde) we can even overflow into the
next host page and oops.

Intel virtualization extensions do not support virtualizing real mode. So
kvm uses virtualized vm86 mode to run real mode code. Unfortunately, this
virtualized vm86 mode does not support the so called "big real" mode, where
the segment selector and base do not agree with each other according to the
real mode rules (base == selector << 4).
To work around this, kvm checks whether a selector/base pair violates the
virtualized vm86 rules, and if so, forces it into conformance. On a
transition back to protected mode, if we see that the guest did not touch
a forced segment, we restore it back to the original protected mode value.
This pile of hacks breaks down if the gdt has changed in real mode, as it
can cause a segment selector to point to a system descriptor instead of a
normal data segment. In fact, this happens with the Windows bootloader
and the qemu acpi bios, where a protected mode memcpy routine issues an
innocent 'pop %es' and traps on an attempt to load a system descriptor.
"Fix" by checking if the to-be-restored selector points at a system segment,
and if so, coercing it into a normal data segment. The long term solution,
of course, is to abandon vm86 mode and use emulation for big real mode.

KVM shadow page tables are always in pae mode, regardless of the guest
setting. This means that a guest pde (mapping 4MB of memory) is mapped
to two shadow pdes (mapping 2MB each).
When the guest writes to a pte or pde, we intercept the write and emulate it.
We also remove any shadowed mappings corresponding to the write. Since the
mmu did not account for the doubling in the number of pdes, it removed the
wrong entry, resulting in a mismatch between shadow page tables and guest
page tables, followed shortly by guest memory corruption.
This patch fixes the problem by detecting the special case of writing to
a non-pae pde and adjusting the address and number of shadow pdes zapped
accordingly.

Allocate a distinct inode for every vcpu in a VM. This has the following
benefits:
- the filp cachelines are no longer bounced when f_count is incremented on
every ioctl()
- the API and internal code are distinctly clearer; for example, on the
KVM_GET_REGS ioctl, there is no need to copy the vcpu number from
userspace and then copy the registers back; the vcpu identity is derived
from the fd used to make the call
Right now the performance benefits are completely theoretical since (a) we
don't support more than one vcpu per VM and (b) virtualization hardware
inefficiencies completely everwhelm any cacheline bouncing effects. But
both of these will change, and we need to prepare the API today.

Convert the PDA code to use %fs rather than %gs as the segment for
per-processor data. This is because some processors show a small but
measurable performance gain for reloading a NULL segment selector (as %fs
generally is in user-space) versus a non-NULL one (as %gs generally is).
On modern processors the difference is very small, perhaps undetectable.
Some old AMD "K6 3D+" processors are noticably slower when %fs is used
rather than %gs; I have no idea why this might be, but I think they're
sufficiently rare that it doesn't matter much.
This patch also fixes the math emulator, which had not been adjusted to
match the changed struct pt_regs.

If a page is marked as dirty in the guest pte, set_pte_common() can set the
writable bit on newly-instantiated shadow pte. This optimization avoids
a write fault after the initial read fault.
However, if a write fault instantiates the pte, fix_write_pf() incorrectly
reports the fault as a guest page fault, and the guest oopses on what appears
to be a correctly-mapped page.
Fix is to detect the condition and only report a guest page fault on a user
access to a kernel page.

The various bit string instructions (bts, btc, etc.) fail to adjust the

This bug creeped in as the emulator originally relied on cr2 to contain the
memory address; however we now decode it from the mod r/m bits, and must
adjust the offset to account for large bit indices.
The patch is rather large because it switches src and dst decoding around, so
that the bit index is available when decoding the memory address.

The kvm mmio read path looks like:
1. guest read faults
2. kvm emulates read, calls emulator_read_emulated()
3. fails as a read requires userspace help
4. exit to userspace
5. userspace emulates read, kvm sets vcpu->mmio_read_completed
6. re-enter guest, fault again
7. kvm emulates read, calls emulator_read_emulated()
8. succeeds as vcpu->mmio_read_emulated is set
9. instruction completes and guest is resumed
A problem surfaces if the userspace exit (step 5) also requests an interrupt
injection. In that case, the guest does not re-execute the original
instruction, but the interrupt handler. The next time an mmio read is
exectued (likely for a different address), step 3 will find
vcpu->mmio_read_completed set and return the value read for the original
instruction.
The problem manifested itself in a few annoying ways:
- little squares appear randomly on console when switching virtual terminals
- ne2000 fails under nfs read load
- rtl8139 complains about "pci errors" even though the device model is
incapable of issuing them.
Fix by skipping interrupt injection if an mmio read is pending.
A better fix is to avoid re-entry into the guest, and re-emulating immediately
instead. However that's a bit more complex.
