xen: split construction of p2m mfn tables from registration
Build the p2m_mfn_list_list early with the rest of the p2m table, but
register it later when the real shared_info structure is in place.
Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com>
The unforeseen side-effect of this change was to cause the mfn list list to not
be rebuilt on resume. Prior to this change it would have been rebuilt via
xen_post_suspend() -> xen_setup_shared_info() -> xen_setup_mfn_list_list().
Fix by explicitly calling xen_build_mfn_list_list() from xen_post_suspend().

This is necessary to ensure the runstate area is available to
xen_sched_clock before any calls to printk which will require it in
order to provide a timestamp.
I chose to pull the xen_setup_runstate_info out of xen_time_init into
the caller in order to maintain parity with calling
xen_setup_runstate_info separately from calling xen_time_resume.

The x86 lapic nmi watchdog does not recognize AMD Family 11h,
resulting in:

As far as I can see from available documentation (the BKDM),
family 11h looks identical to family 10h as far as the PMU

PCI tree
On a multi-node x3950M2 system, there's a slight oddity in the
PCI device tree for all secondary nodes:
30:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 PCI Bridge (rev e1)
\-33:00.0 PCI bridge: IBM CalIOC2 PCI-E Root Port (rev 01)
\-34:00.0 RAID bus controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic MegaRAID SAS 1078 (rev 04)
...as compared to the primary node:
00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 PCI Bridge (rev e1)
\-01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc ES1000 (rev 02)
03:00.0 PCI bridge: IBM CalIOC2 PCI-E Root Port (rev 01)
\-04:00.0 RAID bus controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic MegaRAID SAS 1078 (rev 04)
In both nodes, the LSI RAID controller hangs off a CalIOC2
device, but on the secondary nodes, the BIOS hides the VGA
device and substitutes the device tree ending with the disk
controller.
It would seem that Calgary devices don't necessarily appear at
the top of the PCI tree, which means that the current code to
find the Calgary IOMMU that goes with a particular device is
buggy.
Rather than walk all the way to the top of the PCI
device tree and try to match bus number with Calgary descriptor,
the code needs to examine each parent of the particular device;
if it encounters a Calgary with a matching bus number, simply
use that.
Otherwise, we BUG() when the bus number of the Calgary doesn't
match the bus number of whatever's at the top of the device tree.
Extra note: This patch appears to work correctly for the x3950
that came before the x3950 M2.

update_transition_efer() masks out some efer bits when deciding whether
to switch the msr during guest entry; for example, NX is emulated using the
mmu so we don't need to disable it, and LMA/LME are handled by the hardware.
However, with shared msrs, the comparison is made against a stale value;
at the time of the guest switch we may be running with another guest's efer.
Fix by deferring the mask/compare to the actual point of guest entry.

The various syscall-related MSRs are fairly expensive to switch. Currently
we switch them on every vcpu preemption, which is far too often:
- if we're switching to a kernel thread (idle task, threaded interrupt,
kernel-mode virtio server (vhost-net), for example) and back, then
there's no need to switch those MSRs since kernel threasd won't
be exiting to userspace.
- if we're switching to another guest running an identical OS, most likely
those MSRs will have the same value, so there's little point in reloading
them.
- if we're running the same OS on the guest and host, the MSRs will have
identical values and reloading is unnecessary.
This patch uses the new user return notifiers to implement last-minute
switching, and checks the msr values to avoid unnecessary reloading.

svm_vcpu_reset() was not properly resetting the contents of the guest-visible
cr0 register, causing the following issue:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=525699
Without resetting cr0 properly, the vcpu was running the SIPI bootstrap routine
with paging enabled, making the vcpu get a pagefault exception while trying to
run it.
Instead of setting vmcb->save.cr0 directly, the new code just resets
kvm->arch.cr0 and calls kvm_set_cr0(). The bits that were set/cleared on
vmcb->save.cr0 (PG, WP, !CD, !NW) will be set properly by svm_set_cr0().
kvm_set_cr0() is used instead of calling svm_set_cr0() directly to make sure
kvm_mmu_reset_context() is called to reset the mmu to nonpaging mode.

When we migrate a kvm guest that uses pvclock between two hosts, we may
suffer a large skew. This is because there can be significant differences
between the monotonic clock of the hosts involved. When a new host with
a much larger monotonic time starts running the guest, the view of time
will be significantly impacted.
Situation is much worse when we do the opposite, and migrate to a host with
a smaller monotonic clock.
This proposed ioctl will allow userspace to inform us what is the monotonic
clock value in the source host, so we can keep the time skew short, and
more importantly, never goes backwards. Userspace may also need to trigger
the current data, since from the first migration onwards, it won't be
reflected by a simple call to clock_gettime() anymore.

Commit 705c5323 opened the doors of hell by unconditionally injecting
single-step flags as long as guest_debug signaled this. This doesn't

Support for Xen PV-on-HVM guests can be implemented almost entirely in
userspace, except for handling one annoying MSR that maps a Xen
hypercall blob into guest address space.
A generic mechanism to delegate MSR writes to userspace seems overkill
and risks encouraging similar MSR abuse in the future. Thus this patch
adds special support for the Xen HVM MSR.
I implemented a new ioctl, KVM_XEN_HVM_CONFIG, that lets userspace tell
KVM which MSR the guest will write to, as well as the starting address
and size of the hypercall blobs (one each for 32-bit and 64-bit) that
userspace has loaded from files. When the guest writes to the MSR, KVM
copies one page of the blob from userspace to the guest.
I've tested this patch with a hacked-up version of Gerd's userspace
code, booting a number of guests (CentOS 5.3 i386 and x86_64, and
FreeBSD 8.0-RC1 amd64) and exercising PV network and block devices.

New AMD processors (Family 0x10 models 8+) support the Pause
Filter Feature. This feature creates a new field in the VMCB
called Pause Filter Count. If Pause Filter Count is greater
than 0 and intercepting PAUSEs is enabled, the processor will
increment an internal counter when a PAUSE instruction occurs
instead of intercepting. When the internal counter reaches the
Pause Filter Count value, a PAUSE intercept will occur.
This feature can be used to detect contended spinlocks,
especially when the lock holding VCPU is not scheduled.
Rescheduling another VCPU prevents the VCPU seeking the
lock from wasting its quantum by spinning idly.
Experimental results show that most spinlocks are held
for less than 1000 PAUSE cycles or more than a few
thousand. Default the Pause Filter Counter to 3000 to
detect the contended spinlocks.
Processor support for this feature is indicated by a CPUID
bit.
On a 24 core system running 4 guests each with 16 VCPUs,
this patch improved overall performance of each guest's
32 job kernbench by approximately 3-5% when combined
with a scheduler algorithm thati caused the VCPU to
sleep for a brief period. Further performance improvement
may be possible with a more sophisticated yield algorithm.

New NHM processors will support Pause-Loop Exiting by adding 2 VM-execution
control fields:
PLE_Gap - upper bound on the amount of time between two successive
executions of PAUSE in a loop.
PLE_Window - upper bound on the amount of time a guest is allowed to execute in
a PAUSE loop
If the time, between this execution of PAUSE and previous one, exceeds the
PLE_Gap, processor consider this PAUSE belongs to a new loop.
Otherwise, processor determins the the total execution time of this loop(since
1st PAUSE in this loop), and triggers a VM exit if total time exceeds the
PLE_Window.
* Refer SDM volume 3b section 21.6.13 & 22.1.3.
Pause-Loop Exiting can be used to detect Lock-Holder Preemption, where one VP
is sched-out after hold a spinlock, then other VPs for same lock are sched-in
to waste the CPU time.
Our tests indicate that most spinlocks are held for less than 212 cycles.
Performance tests show that with 2X LP over-commitment we can get +2% perf
improvement for kernel build(Even more perf gain with more LPs).
