[PATCH 00/11] KVM: x86: Prep work for VMX IPI virtualization

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Prepare for VMX's IPI virtualization, in which hardware treats ICR as a
single 64-bit register in x2APIC mode.  The SDM wasn't clear on how ICR
should be modeled, KVM just took the easier path and guessed wrong.

Hardware's implementation of ICR as a 64-bit register requires explicit
handling to maintain backwards compatibility in KVM_{G,S}ET_REG, as
migrating a VM between hosts with different IPI virtualization support
would lead to ICR "corruption" for writes that aren't intercepted by
KVM (hardware doesn't fill ICR2 in vAPIC page).

This series includes AVIC cleanups for things I encountered along the way.
AVIC still has multiple issues, this only fixes the easy bugs.

Sean Christopherson (11):
  Revert "svm: Add warning message for AVIC IPI invalid target"
  KVM: VMX: Handle APIC-write offset wrangling in VMX code
  KVM: x86: Use "raw" APIC register read for handling APIC-write VM-Exit
  KVM: SVM: Use common kvm_apic_write_nodecode() for AVIC write traps
  KVM: SVM: Don't rewrite guest ICR on AVIC IPI virtualization failure
  KVM: x86: WARN if KVM emulates an IPI without clearing the BUSY flag
  KVM: x86: Make kvm_lapic_reg_{read,write}() static
  KVM: x86: Add helpers to handle 64-bit APIC MSR read/writes
  KVM: x86: Treat x2APIC's ICR as a 64-bit register, not two 32-bit regs
  KVM: x86: Make kvm_lapic_set_reg() a "private" xAPIC helper
  KVM: selftests: Add test to verify KVM handles x2APIC ICR=>ICR2 dance
