Commit 705c5323 opened the doors of hell by unconditionally injecting
single-step flags as long as guest_debug signaled this. This doesn't
work when the guest branches into some interrupt or exception handler
and triggers a vmexit with flag reloading.
Fix it by saving cs:rip when user space requests single-stepping and
restricting the trace flag injection to this guest code position.

Support for Xen PV-on-HVM guests can be implemented almost entirely in
userspace, except for handling one annoying MSR that maps a Xen
hypercall blob into guest address space.
A generic mechanism to delegate MSR writes to userspace seems overkill
and risks encouraging similar MSR abuse in the future. Thus this patch
adds special support for the Xen HVM MSR.
I implemented a new ioctl, KVM_XEN_HVM_CONFIG, that lets userspace tell
KVM which MSR the guest will write to, as well as the starting address
and size of the hypercall blobs (one each for 32-bit and 64-bit) that
userspace has loaded from files. When the guest writes to the MSR, KVM
copies one page of the blob from userspace to the guest.
I've tested this patch with a hacked-up version of Gerd's userspace
code, booting a number of guests (CentOS 5.3 i386 and x86_64, and
FreeBSD 8.0-RC1 amd64) and exercising PV network and block devices.

New AMD processors (Family 0x10 models 8+) support the Pause
Filter Feature. This feature creates a new field in the VMCB
called Pause Filter Count. If Pause Filter Count is greater
than 0 and intercepting PAUSEs is enabled, the processor will
increment an internal counter when a PAUSE instruction occurs
instead of intercepting. When the internal counter reaches the
Pause Filter Count value, a PAUSE intercept will occur.
This feature can be used to detect contended spinlocks,
especially when the lock holding VCPU is not scheduled.
Rescheduling another VCPU prevents the VCPU seeking the
lock from wasting its quantum by spinning idly.
Experimental results show that most spinlocks are held
for less than 1000 PAUSE cycles or more than a few
thousand. Default the Pause Filter Counter to 3000 to
detect the contended spinlocks.
Processor support for this feature is indicated by a CPUID
bit.
On a 24 core system running 4 guests each with 16 VCPUs,
this patch improved overall performance of each guest's
32 job kernbench by approximately 3-5% when combined
with a scheduler algorithm thati caused the VCPU to
sleep for a brief period. Further performance improvement
may be possible with a more sophisticated yield algorithm.

New NHM processors will support Pause-Loop Exiting by adding 2 VM-execution
control fields:
PLE_Gap - upper bound on the amount of time between two successive
executions of PAUSE in a loop.
PLE_Window - upper bound on the amount of time a guest is allowed to execute in
a PAUSE loop
If the time, between this execution of PAUSE and previous one, exceeds the
PLE_Gap, processor consider this PAUSE belongs to a new loop.
Otherwise, processor determins the the total execution time of this loop(since
1st PAUSE in this loop), and triggers a VM exit if total time exceeds the
PLE_Window.
* Refer SDM volume 3b section 21.6.13 & 22.1.3.
Pause-Loop Exiting can be used to detect Lock-Holder Preemption, where one VP
is sched-out after hold a spinlock, then other VPs for same lock are sched-in
to waste the CPU time.
Our tests indicate that most spinlocks are held for less than 212 cycles.
Performance tests show that with 2X LP over-commitment we can get +2% perf
improvement for kernel build(Even more perf gain with more LPs).

X86 CPUs need to have some magic happening to enable the virtualization
extensions on them. This magic can result in unpleasant results for
users, like blocking other VMMs from working (vmx) or using invalid TLB
entries (svm).
Currently KVM activates virtualization when the respective kernel module
is loaded. This blocks us from autoloading KVM modules without breaking
other VMMs.
To circumvent this problem at least a bit, this patch introduces on
demand activation of virtualization. This means, that instead
virtualization is enabled on creation of the first virtual machine
and disabled on destruction of the last one.
So using this, KVM can be easily autoloaded, while keeping other
hypervisors usable.

Having run into the run-(boot-)time check a couple of times lately,
I finally took time to find a build-time check so that one doesn't
need to analyze the register/stack dump and resolve this (through
manual lookup in vmlinux) to the offending construct.
The assembler will emit a message like "Error: value of <num> too
large for field of 1 bytes at <offset>", which while not pointing
out the source location still makes analysis quite a bit easier.

The semantics the PAT code expect of is_untracked_pat_range() is "is
this range completely contained inside the untracked region." This
means that checkin 8a27138924f64d2f30c1022f909f74480046bc3f was
technically wrong, because the implementation needlessly confusing.
The sane interface is for it to take a semiclosed range like just
about everything else (as evidenced by the sheer number of "- 1"'s
removed by that patch) so change the actual implementation to match.

Mtdblock driver doesn't call flush_dcache_page for pages in request. So,
this causes problems on architectures where the icache doesn't fill from
the dcache or with dcache aliases. The patch fixes this.
The ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE symbol was introduced to avoid
pointless empty cache-thrashing loops on architectures for which
flush_dcache_page() is a no-op. Every architecture was provided with this
flush pages on architectires where ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE is
equal 1 or do nothing otherwise.
See "fix mtd_blkdevs problem with caches on some architectures" discussion
on LKML for more information.

Move the find_smp_config() call to before bootmem is initialized.
Use reserve_early() instead of reserve_bootmem() in it.
This simplifies the code, we only need to call find_smp_config()
once and can remove the now unneeded reserve parameter from
x86_init_mpparse::find_smp_config.
We thus also reduce x86's dependency on bootmem allocations.

Rather than having X86_L1_CACHE_BYTES and X86_L1_CACHE_SHIFT
(with inconsistent defaults), just having the latter suffices as
the former can be easily calculated from it.
To be consistent, also change X86_INTERNODE_CACHE_BYTES to
X86_INTERNODE_CACHE_SHIFT, and set it to 7 (128 bytes) for NUMA
to account for last level cache line size (which here matters
more than L1 cache line size).
Finally, make sure the default value for X86_L1_CACHE_SHIFT,
when X86_GENERIC is selected, is being seen before that for the

GENERIC_CPU is part of the choice construct, X86_GENERIC is a
