If KVM sees a read-only host page, it will map it as read-only to prevent
breaking a COW. However, if the page was part of a large guest page, KVM
incorrectly extends the write protection to the entire large page frame
instead of limiting it to the normal host page.
This results in the instantiation of a new shadow page with read-only access.
If this happens for a MOVS instruction that moves memory between two normal
pages, within a single large page frame, and mapped within the guest as a
large page, and if, in addition, the source operand is not writeable in the
host (perhaps due to KSM), then KVM will instantiate a read-only direct
shadow page, instantiate an spte for the source operand, then instantiate
a new read/write direct shadow page and instantiate an spte for the
destination operand. Since these two sptes are in different shadow pages,
MOVS will never see them at the same time and the guest will not make
progress.
Fix by mapping the direct shadow page read/write, and only marking the
host page read-only.

In certain use-cases, we want to allocate guests fixed time slices where idle
guest cycles leave the machine idling. There are many approaches to achieve
this but the most direct is to simply avoid trapping the HLT instruction which
lets the guest directly execute the instruction putting the processor to sleep.
Introduce this as a module-level option for kvm-vmx.ko since if you do this
for one guest, you probably want to do it for all.

Currently x86's kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log() needs to allocate a bitmap by
vmalloc() which will be used in the next logging and this has been causing
bad effect to VGA and live-migration: vmalloc() consumes extra systime,
triggers tlb flush, etc.
This patch resolves this issue by pre-allocating one more bitmap and switching
between two bitmaps during dirty logging.
Performance improvement:
I measured performance for the case of VGA update by trace-cmd.
The result was 1.5 times faster than the original one.
In the case of live migration, the improvement ratio depends on the workload
and the guest memory size. In general, the larger the memory size is the more
benefits we get.
Note:
This does not change other architectures's logic but the allocation size
becomes twice. This will increase the actual memory consumption only when
the new size changes the number of pages allocated by vmalloc().

We now use load_gs_index() to load gs safely; unfortunately this also

in confusion and breakage running 32-bit host userspace on a 64-bit kernel.
Fix by

I have observed the following bug trigger:
1. userspace calls GET_DIRTY_LOG
2. kvm_mmu_slot_remove_write_access is called and makes a page ro
3. page fault happens and makes the page writeable
fault is logged in the bitmap appropriately
4. kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log swaps slot pointers
a lot of time passes
5. guest writes into the page
6. userspace calls GET_DIRTY_LOG
At point (5), bitmap is clean and page is writeable,
thus, guest modification of memory is not logged
and GET_DIRTY_LOG returns an empty bitmap.
The rule is that all pages are either dirty in the current bitmap,
or write-protected, which is violated here.
It seems that just moving kvm_mmu_slot_remove_write_access down
to after the slot pointer swap should fix this bug.

vmx_complete_interrupts() does too much, split it up:

- a new vmx_complete_atomic_exit() gets the parts that must be done atomically
- a new vmx_recover_nmi_blocking() does what its name says

Instead of blindly attempting to inject an event before each guest entry,
check for a possible event first in vcpu->requests. Sites that can trigger
event injection are modified to set KVM_REQ_EVENT:
- interrupt, nmi window opening
- ppr updates
- i8259 output changes
- local apic irr changes
- rflags updates
- gif flag set
- event set on exit

Commit "KVM: MMU: Make tdp_enabled a mmu-context parameter" made real-mode
set ->direct_map, and changed the code that merges in the memory type depend
on direct_map instead of tdp_enabled. However, in this case what really
matters is tdp, not direct_map, since tdp changes the pte format regardless
of whether the mapping is direct or not.
As a result, real-mode shadow mappings got corrupted with ept memory types.
The result was a huge slowdown, likely due to the cache being disabled.
Change it back as the simplest fix for the regression (real fix is to move
all that to vmx code, and not use tdp_enabled as a synonym for ept).

l2 rip, rsp and rax resulting in unpredictable behavior.
This patch is not the final word, it is just an easy patch

Kernel time, which advances in discrete steps may progress much slower
than TSC. As a result, when kvmclock is adjusted to a new base, the
apparent time to the guest, which runs at a much higher, nsec scaled
rate based on the current TSC, may have already been observed to have
a larger value (kernel_ns + scaled tsc) than the value to which we are
setting it (kernel_ns + 0).
We must instead compute the clock as potentially observed by the guest
for kernel_ns to make sure it does not go backwards.

If there are active VCPUs which are marked as belonging to
a particular hardware CPU, request a clock sync for them when
enabling hardware; the TSC could be desynchronized on a newly
arriving CPU, and we need to recompute guests system time
relative to boot after a suspend event.
This covers both cases.
Note that it is acceptable to take the spinlock, as either
no other tasks will be running and no locks held (BSP after
resume), or other tasks will be guaranteed to drop the lock
relatively quickly (AP on CPU_STARTING).
Noting we now get clock synchronization requests for VCPUs
which are starting up (or restarting), it is tempting to
attempt to remove the arch/x86/kvm/x86.c CPU hot-notifiers
at this time, however it is not correct to do so; they are
required for systems with non-constant TSC as the frequency
may not be known immediately after the processor has started
until the cpufreq driver has had a chance to run and query
the chipset.
Updated: implement better locking semantics for hardware_enable
Removed the hack of dropping and retaking the lock by adding the
semantic that we always hold kvm_lock when hardware_enable is
called. The one place that doesn't need to worry about it is
resume, as resuming a frozen CPU, the spinlock won't be taken.

Of slab shrinkers, the VM code says:
* Note that 'shrink' will be passed nr_to_scan == 0 when the VM is
* querying the cache size, so a fastpath for that case is appropriate.
and it *means* it. Look at how it calls the shrinkers:
nr_before = (*shrinker->shrink)(0, gfp_mask);
shrink_ret = (*shrinker->shrink)(this_scan, gfp_mask);
So, if you do anything stupid in your shrinker, the VM will doubly
punish you.
The mmu_shrink() function takes the global kvm_lock, then acquires
every VM's kvm->mmu_lock in sequence. If we have 100 VMs, then
we're going to take 101 locks. We do it twice, so each call takes
202 locks. If we're under memory pressure, we can have each cpu
trying to do this. It can get really hairy, and we've seen lock
spinning in mmu_shrink() be the dominant entry in profiles.
This is guaranteed to optimize at least half of those lock
aquisitions away. It removes the need to take any of the locks
when simply trying to count objects.
A 'percpu_counter' can be a large object, but we only have one
of these for the entire system. There are not any better
alternatives at the moment, especially ones that handle CPU
hotplug.

Doing this makes the code much more readable. That's
borne out by the fact that this patch removes code. "used"
also happens to be the number that we need to return back to
the slab code when our shrinker gets called. Keeping this
value as opposed to free makes the next patch simpler.
So, 'struct kvm' is kzalloc()'d. 'struct kvm_arch' is a
structure member (and not a pointer) of 'struct kvm'. That
means they start out zeroed. I _think_ they get initialized
properly by kvm_mmu_change_mmu_pages(). But, that only happens
via kvm ioctls.
Another benefit of storing 'used' intead of 'free' is
that the values are consistent from the moment the structure is
allocated: no negative "used" value.

"free" is a poor name for this value. In this context, it means,
"the number of mmu pages which this kvm instance should be able to
allocate." But "free" implies much more that the objects are there
and ready for use. "available" is a much better description, especially
when you see how it is calculated.
In this patch, we abstract its use into a function. We'll soon
replace the function's contents by calculating the value in a
different way.
All of the reads of n_free_mmu_pages are taken care of in this
patch. The modification sites will be handled in a patch
