* x86: KVM guest: paravirtualized clocksourceGlauber de Oliveira Costa2008-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the guest part of kvm clock implementation It does not do tsc-only timing, as tsc can have deltas between cpus, and it did not seem worthy to me to keep adjusting them. We do use it, however, for fine-grained adjustment. Other than that, time comes from the host.

* KVM: paravirtualized clocksource: host partGlauber de Oliveira Costa2008-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the host part of kvm clocksource implementation. As it does not include clockevents, it is a fairly simple implementation. We only have to register a per-vcpu area, and start writing to it periodically. The area is binary compatible with xen, as we use the same shadow_info structure.

* KVM: SVM: enable LBR virtualizationJoerg Roedel2008-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch implements the Last Branch Record Virtualization (LBRV) feature of the AMD Barcelona and Phenom processors into the kvm-amd module. It will only be enabled if the guest enables last branch recording in the DEBUG_CTL MSR. So there is no increased world switch overhead when the guest doesn't use these MSRs.

* KVM: SVM: allocate the MSR permission map per VCPUJoerg Roedel2008-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | | This patch changes the kvm-amd module to allocate the SVM MSR permission map per VCPU instead of a global map for all VCPUs. With this we have more flexibility allowing specific guests to access virtualized MSRs. This is required for LBR virtualization.

* KVM: export information about NPT to generic x86 codeJoerg Roedel2008-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | The generic x86 code has to know if the specific implementation uses Nested Paging.

* KVM: MMU: Decouple mmio from shadow page tablesAvi Kivity2008-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently an mmio guest pte is encoded in the shadow pagetable as a not-present trapping pte, with the SHADOW_IO_MARK bit set. However nothing is ever done with this information, so maintaining it is a useless complication. This patch moves the check for mmio to before shadow ptes are instantiated, so the shadow code is never invoked for ptes that reference mmio. The code is simpler, and with future work, can be made to handle mmio concurrently. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

* KVM: MMU: Update shadow ptes on partial guest pte writesDong, Eddie2008-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A guest partial guest pte write will leave shadow_trap_nonpresent_pte in spte, which generates a vmexit at the next guest access through that pte. This patch improves this by reading the full guest pte in advance and thus being able to update the spte and eliminate the vmexit. This helps pae guests which use two 32-bit writes to set a single 64-bit pte.

This way ARCH=um SUBARCH=i386 automatically picks up the change too, and arch/um/Kconfig.i386 can therefore be simplified a bit. ARCH=um SUBARCH=x86_64 does things differently, but still compiles fine. It seems that a "def_bool y" always wins over a "def_bool n"?
