* KVM: x86 emulator: Only allow VMCALL/VMMCALL trapped by #UDSheng Yang2008-01-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When executing a test program called "crashme", we found the KVM guest cannot survive more than ten seconds, then encounterd kernel panic. The basic concept of "crashme" is generating random assembly code and trying to execute it. After some fixes on emulator insn validity judgment, we found it's hard to get the current emulator handle the invalid instructions correctly, for the #UD trap for hypercall patching caused troubles. The problem is, if the opcode itself was OK, but combination of opcode and modrm_reg was invalid, and one operand of the opcode was memory (SrcMem or DstMem), the emulator will fetch the memory operand first rather than checking the validity, and may encounter an error there. For example, ".byte 0xfe, 0x34, 0xcd" has this problem. In the patch, we simply check that if the invalid opcode wasn't vmcall/vmmcall, then return from emulate_instruction() and inject a #UD to guest. With the patch, the guest had been running for more than 12 hours.

* KVM: MMU: Switch to mmu spinlockMarcelo Tosatti2008-01-301-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | Convert the synchronization of the shadow handling to a separate mmu_lock spinlock. Also guard fetch() by mmap_sem in read-mode to protect against alias and memslot changes. Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
* KVM: MMU: Concurrent guest walkersMarcelo Tosatti2008-01-301-8/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Do not hold kvm->lock mutex across the entire pagefault code, only acquire it in places where it is necessary, such as mmu hash list, active list, rmap and parent pte handling. Allow concurrent guest walkers by switching walk_addr() to use mmap_sem in read-mode. And get rid of the lockless __gfn_to_page.

* KVM: Move arch dependent files to new directory arch/x86/kvm/Avi Kivity2008-01-301-0/+2671
This paves the way for multiple architecture support. Note that while ioapic.c could potentially be shared with ia64, it is also moved. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
