2020-07-09	x86/kvm/svm: Move guest enter/exit into .noinstr.text	Thomas Gleixner
	Move the functions which are inside the RCU off region into the non-instrumentable text section.

2020-04-15	KVM: SVM: Do not setup frame pointer in __svm_vcpu_run	Uros Bizjak
	__svm_vcpu_run is a leaf function and does not need a frame pointer. %rbp is also destroyed a few instructions later when guest registers are loaded.

2020-04-14	KVM: SVM: move more vmentry code to assembly	Paolo Bonzini
	Manipulate IF around vmload/vmsave to remove the confusing usage of local_irq_enable where interrupts are actually disabled via GIF. And stuff the RSB immediately without waiting for a RET to avoid Spectre-v2 attacks. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
2020-04-03	KVM: SVM: Split svm_vcpu_run inline assembly to separate file	Uros Bizjak
	The compiler (GCC) does not like the situation, where there is inline assembly block that clobbers all available machine registers in the middle of the function. This situation can be found in function svm_vcpu_run in file kvm/svm.c and results in many register spills and fills to/from stack frame. This patch fixes the issue with the same approach as was done for VMX some time ago. The big inline assembly is moved to a separate assembly .S file, taking into account all ABI requirements. There are two main benefits of the above approach: * elimination of several register spills and fills to/from stack frame, and consequently smaller function .text size. The binary size of svm_vcpu_run is lowered from 2019 to 1626 bytes. * more efficient access to a register save array. Currently, register save array is accessed as: 7b00: 48 8b 98 28 02 00 00 mov 0x228(%rax),%rbx 7b07: 48 8b 88 18 02 00 00 mov 0x218(%rax),%rcx 7b0e: 48 8b 90 20 02 00 00 mov 0x220(%rax),%rdx and passing ia pointer to a register array as an argument to a function one gets: 12: 48 8b 48 08 mov 0x8(%rax),%rcx 16: 48 8b 50 10 mov 0x10(%rax),%rdx 1a: 48 8b 58 18 mov 0x18(%rax),%rbx As a result, the total size, considering that the new function size is 229 bytes, gets lowered by 164 bytes.
