* KVM: x86 emulator: add Src2 decode setGuillaume Thouvenin2008-12-311-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | Instruction like shld has three operands, so we need to add a Src2 decode set. We start with Src2None, Src2CL, and Src2ImmByte, Src2One to support shld/shrd and we will expand it later.

* x86: cpu_emergency_svm_disable() functionEduardo Habkost2008-12-311-0/+8

* KVM: SVM: move has_svm() code to asm/virtext.hEduardo Habkost2008-12-311-0/+41
| | | | | | | | | Use a trick to keep the printk()s on has_svm() working as before. gcc will take care of not generating code for the 'msg' stuff when the function is called with a NULL msg argument. Signed-off-by: Eduardo Habkost <ehabkost@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
* x86: cpu_emergency_vmxoff() functionEduardo Habkost2008-12-311-0/+23

* x86: asm/virtext.h: add cpu_vmxoff() inline functionEduardo Habkost2008-12-311-0/+15
| | | | | | | | | Unfortunately we can't use exactly the same code from vmx hardware_disable(), because the KVM function uses the __kvm_handle_fault_on_reboot() tricks. Signed-off-by: Eduardo Habkost <ehabkost@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

* KVM: VMX: move ASM_VMX_* definitions from asm/kvm_host.h to asm/vmx.hEduardo Habkost2008-12-312-12/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | Those definitions will be used by code outside KVM, so move it outside of a KVM-specific source file. Those definitions are used only on kvm/vmx.c, that already includes asm/vmx.h, so they can be moved safely.

* KVM: MMU: Fix aliased gfns treated as unaliasedIzik Eidus2008-12-311-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | Some areas of kvm x86 mmu are using gfn offset inside a slot without unaliasing the gfn first. This patch makes sure that the gfn will be unaliased and add gfn_to_memslot_unaliased() to save the calculating of the gfn unaliasing in case we have it unaliased already.

* KVM: x86: Optimize NMI watchdog deliveryJan Kiszka2008-12-311-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | As suggested by Avi, this patch introduces a counter of VCPUs that have LVT0 set to NMI mode. Only if the counter > 0, we push the PIT ticks via all LAPIC LVT0 lines to enable NMI watchdog support.

* KVM: VMX: refactor/fix IRQ and NMI injectability determinationJan Kiszka2008-12-311-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are currently two ways in VMX to check if an IRQ or NMI can be injected: - vmx_{nmi|irq}_enabled and - vcpu.arch.{nmi|interrupt}_window_open. Even worse, one test (at the end of vmx_vcpu_run) uses an inconsistent, likely incorrect logic. This patch consolidates and unifies the tests over {nmi|interrupt}_window_open as cache + vmx_update_window_states for updating the cache content.

The goal is to be able to scale up to much larger NR_IRQS value without impacting the (important) common case. To solve this, we generalize irq_desc[NR_IRQS] to an (optional) array of irq_desc pointers. When CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y is used, we use kzalloc_node to get irq_desc, this also makes the IRQ descriptors NUMA-local (to the site that calls request_irq()). This gets rid of the irq_cfg[] static array on x86 as well: irq_cfg now uses desc->chip_data for x86 to store irq_cfg.

The glibc code will not use anything from the vdso if the process does not use the dynamic linker, so for statically linked binaries the architecture backend can choose not to map the vdso.

On x86-64, the pda is not initialized on the first stage of a cpu boot but it is needed to get the cpu number and the current task pointer. This data is needed during tracing. As they were dereferenced at this stage, we got a crash while tracing a cpu being enabled at runtime. Some other archs like ia64 can have such kind of issue too. Changes on v2: We dropped the previous solution of a per-arch called function to guess the current state of a cpu. That could slow down the tracing. This patch removes the -pg flag on arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c where the low level cpu boot functions exist, on start_secondary() and a helper function used at this stage.

Tracers used to be identified via their task_struct. The changes are required to allow DS to be shared between different tasks, which is needed for perfmon2 and for ftrace. For ptrace, the handle is stored in the traced task's task_struct. This should probably go into a (arch-specific) ptrace context some time.
