2012-08-06KVM: do not release the error pageXiao Guangrong
After commit a2766325cf9f9, the error page is replaced by the error code, it need not be released anymore [ The patch has been compiling tested for powerpc ] Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
2012-08-06KVM: introduce KVM_ERR_PTR_BAD_PAGEXiao Guangrong
It is used to eliminate the overload of function call and cleanup the code Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
2012-07-26KVM: remove dummy pagesXiao Guangrong
Currently, kvm allocates some pages and use them as error indicators, it wastes memory and is not good for scalability Base on Avi's suggestion, we use the error codes instead of these pages to indicate the error conditions Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
2012-07-26KVM: use kvm_release_page_clean to release the pageXiao Guangrong
In kvm_async_pf_wakeup_all, it uses bad_page to generate broadcast wakeup, and uses put_page to release bad_page, the work depends on the fact that bad_page is the normal page. But we will use the error code instead of bad_page, so use kvm_release_page_clean to release the page which will release the error code properly Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
2011-01-12KVM: fix the race while wakeup all pv guestXiao Guangrong
In kvm_async_pf_wakeup_all(), we add a dummy apf to vcpu->async_pf.done without holding vcpu->async_pf.lock, it will break if we are handling apfs at this time. Also use 'list_empty_careful()' instead of 'list_empty()' Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@cn.fujitsu.com> Acked-by: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>
2011-01-12KVM: handle more completed apfs if possibleXiao Guangrong
If it's no need to inject async #PF to PV guest we can handle more completed apfs at one time, so we can retry guest #PF as early as possible Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@cn.fujitsu.com> Acked-by: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>
2011-01-12KVM: Inject asynchronous page fault into a PV guest if page is swapped out.Gleb Natapov
Send async page fault to a PV guest if it accesses swapped out memory. Guest will choose another task to run upon receiving the fault. Allow async page fault injection only when guest is in user mode since otherwise guest may be in non-sleepable context and will not be able to reschedule. Vcpu will be halted if guest will fault on the same page again or if vcpu executes kernel code.

2011-01-12KVM: Add PV MSR to enable asynchronous page faults delivery.Gleb Natapov
Guest enables async PF vcpu functionality using this MSR. Reviewed-by: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>
2011-01-12KVM: Retry fault before vmentryGleb Natapov
When page is swapped in it is mapped into guest memory only after guest tries to access it again and generate another fault. To save this fault we can map it immediately since we know that guest is going to access the page. Do it only when tdp is enabled for now. Shadow paging case is more complicated. CR[034] and EFER registers should be switched before doing mapping and then switched back.

2011-01-12KVM: Halt vcpu if page it tries to access is swapped outGleb Natapov
If a guest accesses swapped out memory do not swap it in from vcpu thread context. Schedule work to do swapping and put vcpu into halted state instead. Interrupts will still be delivered to the guest and if interrupt will cause reschedule guest will continue to run another task.
