virtio has been so far used only in the context of virtualization,
and the virtio Kconfig was sourced directly by the relevant arch
Kconfigs when VIRTUALIZATION was selected.
Now that we start using virtio for inter-processor communications,
we need to source the virtio Kconfig outside of the virtualization
scope too.
Moreover, some architectures might use virtio for both virtualization
and inter-processor communications, so directly sourcing virtio
might yield unexpected results due to conflicting selections.
The simple solution offered by this patch is to always source virtio's
Kconfig in drivers/Kconfig, and remove it from the appropriate arch
Kconfigs. Additionally, a virtio menu entry has been added so virtio
drivers don't show up in the general drivers menu.
This way anyone can use virtio, though it's arguably less accessible
(and neat!) for virtualization users now.
Note: some architectures (mips and sh) seem to have a VIRTUALIZATION
menu merely for sourcing virtio's Kconfig, so that menu is removed too.

To implement steal time, we need the hypervisor to pass the guest
information about how much time was spent running other processes
outside the VM, while the vcpu had meaningful work to do - halt
time does not count.
This information is acquired through the run_delay field of
delayacct/schedstats infrastructure, that counts time spent in a
runqueue but not running.
Steal time is a per-cpu information, so the traditional MSR-based
infrastructure is used. A new msr, KVM_MSR_STEAL_TIME, holds the
memory area address containing information about steal time
This patch contains the hypervisor part of the steal time infrasructure,
and can be backported independently of the guest portion.

In the unlikely case that L1 does not capture MSR_IA32_TSC, L0 needs to

Additionally, we also need to modify vmx_adjust_tsc_offset: The semantics
of this function is that the TSC of all guests on this vcpu, L1 and possibly
several L2s, need to be adjusted. To do this, we need to adjust vmcs01's
tsc_offset (this offset will also apply to each L2s we enter). We can't set
vmcs01 now, so we have to remember this adjustment and apply it when we

KVM's "Lazy FPU loading" means that sometimes L0 needs to set CR0.TS, even
if a guest didn't set it. Moreover, L0 must also trap CR0.TS changes and
NM exceptions, even if we have a guest hypervisor (L1) who didn't want these
traps. And of course, conversely: If L1 wanted to trap these events, we
must let it, even if L0 is not interested in them.
This patch fixes some existing KVM code (in update_exception_bitmap(),
vmx_fpu_activate(), vmx_fpu_deactivate()) to do the correct merging of L0's
and L1's needs. Note that handle_cr() was already fixed in the above patch,
and that new code in introduced in previous patches already handles CR0

When L2 tries to modify CR0 or CR4 (with mov or clts), and modifies a bit
which L1 asked to shadow (via CR[04]_GUEST_HOST_MASK), we already do the right
thing: we let L1 handle the trap (see nested_vmx_exit_handled_cr() in a
previous patch).
When L2 modifies bits that L1 doesn't care about, we let it think (via
CR[04]_READ_SHADOW) that it did these modifications, while only changing
(in GUEST_CR[04]) the bits that L0 doesn't shadow.
This is needed for corect handling of CR0.TS for lazy FPU loading: L0 may
want to leave TS on, while pretending to allow the guest to change it.

This patch adds correct handling of IDT_VECTORING_INFO_FIELD for the nested
case.
When a guest exits while delivering an interrupt or exception, we get this
information in IDT_VECTORING_INFO_FIELD in the VMCS. When L2 exits to L1,
there's nothing we need to do, because L1 will see this field in vmcs12, and
handle it itself. However, when L2 exits and L0 handles the exit itself and
plans to return to L2, L0 must inject this event to L2.
In the normal non-nested case, the idt_vectoring_info case is discovered after
the exit, and the decision to inject (though not the injection itself) is made
at that point. However, in the nested case a decision of whether to return
to L2 or L1 also happens during the injection phase (see the previous
patches), so in the nested case we can only decide what to do about the
idt_vectoring_info right after the injection, i.e., in the beginning of
vmx_vcpu_run, which is the first time we know for sure if we're staying in
L2.
Therefore, when we exit L2 (is_guest_mode(vcpu)), we disable the regular
vmx_complete_interrupts() code which queues the idt_vectoring_info for
injection on next entry - because such injection would not be appropriate
if we will decide to exit to L1. Rather, we just save the idt_vectoring_info
and related fields in vmcs12 (which is a convenient place to save these
fields). On the next entry in vmx_vcpu_run (*after* the injection phase,
potentially exiting to L1 to inject an event requested by user space), if
we find ourselves in L1 we don't need to do anything with those values
we saved (as explained above). But if we find that we're in L2, or rather
*still* at L2 (it's not nested_run_pending, meaning that this is the first
round of L2 running after L1 having just launched it), we need to inject
the event saved in those fields - by writing the appropriate VMCS fields.

The code in this patch correctly emulates external-interrupt injection
while a nested guest L2 is running.
Because of this code's relative un-obviousness, I include here a longer-than-
usual justification for what it does - much longer than the code itself ;-)
To understand how to correctly emulate interrupt injection while L2 is
running, let's look first at what we need to emulate: How would things look
like if the extra L0 hypervisor layer is removed, and instead of L0 injecting
an interrupt, we had hardware delivering an interrupt?
Now we have L1 running on bare metal with a guest L2, and the hardware
generates an interrupt. Assuming that L1 set PIN_BASED_EXT_INTR_MASK to 1, and
VM_EXIT_ACK_INTR_ON_EXIT to 0 (we'll revisit these assumptions below), what
happens now is this: The processor exits from L2 to L1, with an external-
interrupt exit reason but without an interrupt vector. L1 runs, with
interrupts disabled, and it doesn't yet know what the interrupt was. Soon
after, it enables interrupts and only at that moment, it gets the interrupt
from the processor. when L1 is KVM, Linux handles this interrupt.
Now we need exactly the same thing to happen when that L1->L2 system runs
on top of L0, instead of real hardware. This is how we do this:
When L0 wants to inject an interrupt, it needs to exit from L2 to L1, with
external-interrupt exit reason (with an invalid interrupt vector), and run L1.
Just like in the bare metal case, it likely can't deliver the interrupt to
L1 now because L1 is running with interrupts disabled, in which case it turns
on the interrupt window when running L1 after the exit. L1 will soon enable
interrupts, and at that point L0 will gain control again and inject the
interrupt to L1.
Finally, there is an extra complication in the code: when nested_run_pending,
we cannot return to L1 now, and must launch L2. We need to remember the
interrupt we wanted to inject (and not clear it now), and do it on the
next exit.
The above explanation shows that the relative strangeness of the nested
interrupt injection code in this patch, and the extra interrupt-window
exit incurred, are in fact necessary for accurate emulation, and are not
just an unoptimized implementation.
Let's revisit now the two assumptions made above:
If L1 turns off PIN_BASED_EXT_INTR_MASK (no hypervisor that I know
does, by the way), things are simple: L0 may inject the interrupt directly
to the L2 guest - using the normal code path that injects to any guest.
We support this case in the code below.
If L1 turns on VM_EXIT_ACK_INTR_ON_EXIT, things look very different from the
description above: L1 expects to see an exit from L2 with the interrupt vector
already filled in the exit information, and does not expect to be interrupted
again with this interrupt. The current code does not (yet) support this case,
so we do not allow the VM_EXIT_ACK_INTR_ON_EXIT exit-control to be turned on
by L1.

This patch contains the logic of whether an L2 exit should be handled by L0
and then L2 should be resumed, or whether L1 should be run to handle this
exit (using the nested_vmx_vmexit() function of the previous patch).
The basic idea is to let L1 handle the exit only if it actually asked to
trap this sort of event. For example, when L2 exits on a change to CR0,
we check L1's CR0_GUEST_HOST_MASK to see if L1 expressed interest in any
bit which changed; If it did, we exit to L1. But if it didn't it means that
it is we (L0) that wished to trap this event, so we handle it ourselves.
The next two patches add additional logic of what to do when an interrupt or
exception is injected: Does L0 need to do it, should we exit to L1 to do it,
or should we resume L2 and keep the exception to be injected later.
We keep a new flag, "nested_run_pending", which can override the decision of
which should run next, L1 or L2. nested_run_pending=1 means that we *must* run
L2 next, not L1. This is necessary in particular when L1 did a VMLAUNCH of L2
and therefore expects L2 to be run (and perhaps be injected with an event it
specified, etc.). Nested_run_pending is especially intended to avoid switching
to L1 in the injection decision-point described above.

We saw in a previous patch that L1 controls its L2 guest with a vcms12.
L0 needs to create a real VMCS for running L2. We call that "vmcs02".
A later patch will contain the code, prepare_vmcs02(), for filling the vmcs02
fields. This patch only contains code for allocating vmcs02.
In this version, prepare_vmcs02() sets *all* of vmcs02's fields each time we
enter from L1 to L2, so keeping just one vmcs02 for the vcpu is enough: It can
be reused even when L1 runs multiple L2 guests. However, in future versions
we'll probably want to add an optimization where vmcs02 fields that rarely
change will not be set each time. For that, we may want to keep around several
vmcs02s of L2 guests that have recently run, so that potentially we could run
these L2s again more quickly because less vmwrites to vmcs02 will be needed.
This patch adds to each vcpu a vmcs02 pool, vmx->nested.vmcs02_pool,
which remembers the vmcs02s last used to run up to VMCS02_POOL_SIZE L2s.
As explained above, in the current version we choose VMCS02_POOL_SIZE=1,
I.e., one vmcs02 is allocated (and loaded onto the processor), and it is
reused to enter any L2 guest. In the future, when prepare_vmcs02() is
optimized not to set all fields every time, VMCS02_POOL_SIZE should be
increased.

During tracing the emulator, we noticed that init_emulate_ctxt()
sometimes took a bit longer time than we expected.
This patch is for mitigating the problem by some degree.
By looking into the function, we soon notice that it clears the whole
decode_cache whose size is about 2.5K bytes now. Furthermore, most of
the bytes are taken for the two read_cache arrays, which are used only
by a few instructions.
Considering the fact that we are not assuming the cache arrays have
been cleared when we store actual data, we do not need to clear the
arrays: 2K bytes elimination. In addition, we can avoid clearing the
fetch_cache and regs arrays.
This patch changes the initialization not to clear the arrays.

because (at least in theory) the processor might not have written all of its
content back to memory. Since a patch from June 26, 2008, this is done using
a per-cpu "vcpus_on_cpu" linked list of vcpus loaded on each CPU.
The problem is that with nested VMX, we no longer have the concept of a
vcpu being loaded on a cpu: A vcpu has multiple VMCSs (one for L1, a pool for
L2s), and each of those may be have been last loaded on a different cpu.
So instead of linking the vcpus, we link the VMCSs, using a new structure
loaded_vmcs. This structure contains the VMCS, and the information pertaining
to its loading on a specific cpu (namely, the cpu number, and whether it
was already launched on this cpu once). In nested we will also use the same
structure to hold L2 VMCSs, and vmx->loaded_vmcs is a pointer to the
currently active VMCS.

KVM: MMU: Fix 64-bit paging breakage on x86_32
But as Andi pointed out later, copy_from_user() does the same as
get_user() as long as we give a constant size to it.
So we use copy_from_user() to clean up the code.
The only, noticeable, regression introduced by this is 64-bit gpte
reading on x86_32 hosts needed for PAE guests.

This patch adds a check_perm callback for each opcode into
the instruction emulator. This will be used to do all
necessary permission checks on instructions before checking
whether they are intercepted or not.

When running in guest mode, certain instructions can be intercepted by
hardware. This also holds for nested guests running on emulated
virtualization hardware, in particular instructions emulated by kvm
itself.
This patch adds a framework for intercepting instructions. If an
instruction is marked for interception, and if we're running in guest
mode, a callback is called to check whether an intercept is needed or
not. The callback is called at three points in time: immediately after
beginning execution, after checking privilge exceptions, and after
checking memory exception. This suits the different interception points
defined for different instructions and for the various virtualization
instruction sets.
In addition, a new X86EMUL_INTERCEPT is defined, which any callback or
memory access may define, allowing the more complicated intercepts to be
implemented in existing callbacks.

Most SIMD instructions use the 66/f2/f3 prefixes to distinguish between
different variants of the same instruction. Usually the encoding is quite
regular, but in some cases (including non-SIMD instructions) the prefixes
generate very different instructions. Examples include XCHG/PAUSE,
MOVQ/MOVDQA/MOVDQU, and MOVBE/CRC32.
Allow the emulator to handle these special cases by splitting such opcodes
into groups, with different decode flags and execution functions for different
prefixes.

Currently we store a rep prefix as 1 or 2 depending on whether it is a REPE or
REPNE. Since sse instructions depend on the prefix value, store it as the
original opcode to simplify things further on.

Since sse instructions can issue 16-byte mmios, we need to support them. We
can't increase the kvm_run mmio buffer size to 16 bytes without breaking
compatibility, so instead we break the large mmios into two smaller 8-byte
ones. Since the bus is 64-bit we aren't breaking any atomicity guarantees.

As Avi recently mentioned, the new standard mechanism for exposing features
is KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID, not spamming CAPs. For some reason async pf
missed that.
So expose async_pf here.

Use vmx_set_nmi_mask() instead of open-coding management of
the hardware bit and the software hint (nmi_known_unmasked).
There's a slight change of behaviour when running without
hardware virtual NMI support - we now clear the NMI mask if
NMI delivery faulted in that case as well. This improves
emulation accuracy.
