5b7e0102ae KVM: MMU: Replace role.glevels with role.cr4_pae
There is no real distinction between glevels=3 and glevels=4; both have
exactly the same format and the code is treated exactly the same way.  Drop
role.glevels and replace is with role.cr4_pae (which is meaningful).  This
simplifies the code a bit.

As a side effect, it allows sharing shadow page tables between pae and
longmode guest page tables at the same guest page.

6bc31bdc55 KVM: SVM: implement NEXTRIPsave SVM feature
On SVM we set the instruction length of skipped instructions
to hard-coded, well known values, which could be wrong when (bogus,
but valid) prefixes (REX, segment override) are used.
Newer AMD processors (Fam10h 45nm and better, aka. PhenomII or
AthlonII) have an explicit NEXTRIP field in the VMCB containing the
desired information.
Since it is cheap to do so, we use this field to override the guessed
value on newer processors.
A fix for older CPUs would be rather expensive, as it would require
to fetch and partially decode the instruction. As the problem is not
a security issue and needs special, handcrafted code to trigger
(no compiler will ever generate such code), I omit a fix for older
CPUs.
If someone is interested, I have both a patch for these CPUs as well as
demo code triggering this issue: It segfaults under KVM, but runs
perfectly on native Linux.

5cd21917da KVM: x86 emulator: restart string instruction without going back to a guest.
Currently when string instruction is only partially complete we go back
to a guest mode, guest tries to reexecute instruction and exits again
and at this point emulation continues. Avoid all of this by restarting
instruction without going back to a guest mode, but return to a guest
mode each 1024 iterations to allow interrupt injection. Pending
exception causes immediate guest entry too.

7972995b0c KVM: x86 emulator: Move string pio emulation into emulator.c
Currently emulation is done outside of emulator so things like doing
ins/outs to/from mmio are broken it also makes it hard (if not impossible)
to implement single stepping in the future. The implementation in this
patch is not efficient since it exits to userspace for each IO while
previous implementation did 'ins' in batches. Further patch that
implements pio in string read ahead address this problem.

cf8f70bfe3 KVM: x86 emulator: fix in/out emulation.
in/out emulation is broken now. The breakage is different depending
on where IO device resides. If it is in userspace emulator reports
emulation failure since it incorrectly interprets kvm_emulate_pio()
return value. If IO device is in the kernel emulation of 'in' will do
nothing since kvm_emulate_pio() stores result directly into vcpu
registers, so emulator will overwrite result of emulation during
commit of shadowed register.

08e850c653 KVM: MMU: Reinstate pte prefetch on invlpg
Commit fb341f57 removed the pte prefetch on guest invlpg, citing guest races.
However, the SDM is adamant that prefetch is allowed:

  "The processor may create entries in paging-structure caches for
   translations required for prefetches and for accesses that are a
   result of speculative execution that would never actually occur
   in the executed code path."

And, in fact, there was a race in the prefetch code: we picked up the pte
without the mmu lock held, so an older invlpg could install the pte over
a newer invlpg.

Reinstate the prefetch logic, but this time note whether another invlpg has
executed using a counter.  If a race occured, do not install the pte.

58687acba5 lockup_detector: Combine nmi_watchdog and softlockup detector
The new nmi_watchdog (which uses the perf event subsystem) is very
similar in structure to the softlockup detector.  Using Ingo's
suggestion, I combined the two functionalities into one file:
kernel/watchdog.c.

Now both the nmi_watchdog (or hardlockup detector) and softlockup
detector sit on top of the perf event subsystem, which is run every
60 seconds or so to see if there are any lockups.

To detect hardlockups, cpus not responding to interrupts, I
implemented an hrtimer that runs 5 times for every perf event
overflow event.  If that stops counting on a cpu, then the cpu is
most likely in trouble.

To detect softlockups, tasks not yielding to the scheduler, I used the
previous kthread idea that now gets kicked every time the hrtimer fires.
If the kthread isn't being scheduled neither is anyone else and the
warning is printed to the console.

I tested this on x86_64 and both the softlockup and hardlockup paths
work.

V2:
- cleaned up the Kconfig and softlockup combination
- surrounded hardlockup cases with #ifdef CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS_NMI
- seperated out the softlockup case from perf event subsystem
- re-arranged the enabling/disabling nmi watchdog from proc space
- added cpumasks for hardlockup failure cases
- removed fallback to soft events if no PMU exists for hard events

V3:
- comment cleanups
- drop support for older softlockup code
- per_cpu cleanups
- completely remove software clock base hardlockup detector
- use per_cpu masking on hard/soft lockup detection
- #ifdef cleanups
- rename config option NMI_WATCHDOG to LOCKUP_DETECTOR
- documentation additions

V4:
- documentation fixes
- convert per_cpu to __get_cpu_var
- powerpc compile fixes

V5:
- split apart warn flags for hard and soft lockups

TODO:
- figure out how to make an arch-agnostic clock2cycles call
  (if possible) to feed into perf events as a sample period

c9ad488289 x86: Eliminate TS_XSAVE
The fpu code currently uses current->thread_info->status & TS_XSAVE as
a way to distinguish between XSAVE capable processors and older processors.
The decision is not really task specific; instead we use the task status to
avoid a global memory reference - the value should be the same across all
threads.

Eliminate this tie-in into the task structure by using an alternative
instruction keyed off the XSAVE cpu feature; this results in shorter and
faster code, without introducing a global memory reference.

The identity of the hypervisor, if needed, can be tested by testing

The MS-HyperV private state is moved into a normal global variable
(it's per-system state, not per-CPU state).  Being a normal bss
variable, it will be left at all zero on non-HyperV platforms, and so
can generally be tested for HyperV-specific features without

eddb0c55a1 x86, ioapic: Fix the types of gsi values
This patches fixes the types of gsi_base and gsi_end values in
struct mp_ioapic_gsi, and the gsi parameter of mp_find_ioapic
and mp_find_ioapic_pin

A gsi is cannonically a u32, not an int.

Multiple declarations of the same function in different headers

d88d95eb1c x86, k8: Fix build error when K8_NB is disabled
K8_NB depends on PCI and when the last is disabled (allnoconfig) we fail
at the final linking stage due to missing exported num_k8_northbridges.
Add a header stub for that.

9b6dba9e07 x86: Merge simd_math_error() into math_error()
The only difference between FPU and SIMD exceptions is where the
status bits are read from (cwd/swd vs. mxcsr).  This also fixes
the discrepency introduced by commit adf77bac, which fixed FPU
but not SIMD.

feef47d0cb hw-breakpoints: Get the number of available registers on boot dynamically
The breakpoint generic layer assumes that archs always know in advance
the static number of address registers available to host breakpoints
through the HBP_NUM macro.

However this is not true for every archs. For example Arm needs to get
this information dynamically to handle the compatiblity between
different versions.

To solve this, this patch proposes to drop the static HBP_NUM macro
and let the arch provide the number of available slots through a
new hw_breakpoint_slots() function. For archs that have
CONFIG_HAVE_MIXED_BREAKPOINTS_REGS selected, it will be called once
as the number of registers fits for instruction and data breakpoints
together.
For the others it will be called first to get the number of
instruction breakpoint registers and another time to get the
data breakpoint registers, the targeted type is given as a
parameter of hw_breakpoint_slots().

b2812d031d hw-breakpoints: Change/Enforce some breakpoints policies
The current policies of breakpoints in x86 and SH are the following:

- task bound breakpoints can only break on userspace addresses
- cpu wide breakpoints can only break on kernel addresses

The former rule prevents ptrace breakpoints to be set to trigger on
kernel addresses, which is good. But as a side effect, we can't
breakpoint on kernel addresses for task bound breakpoints.

The latter rule simply makes no sense, there is no reason why we
can't set breakpoints on userspace while performing cpu bound
profiles.

We want the following new policies:

- task bound breakpoint can set userspace address breakpoints, with
no particular privilege required.
- task bound breakpoints can set kernelspace address breakpoints but
must be privileged to do that.
- cpu bound breakpoints can do what they want as they are privileged
already.

To implement these new policies, this patch checks if we are dealing
with a kernel address breakpoint, if so and if the exclude_kernel
parameter is set, we tell the user that the breakpoint is invalid,
which makes a good generic ptrace protection.
If we don't have exclude_kernel, ensure the user has the right
privileges as kernel breakpoints are quite sensitive (risk of
trap recursion attacks and global performance impacts).

[ Paul Mundt: keep addr space check for sh signal delivery and fix
  double function declaration]
