* KVM: enable in-kernel APIC INIT/SIPI handlingHe, Qing2007-10-13
| | | | | | | | | | | This patch enables INIT/SIPI handling using in-kernel APIC by introducing a ->mp_state field to emulate the SMP state transition.

* KVM: deliver PIC interrupt only to vcpu0Qing He2007-10-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch changes the PIC interrupts delivery. Now it is only delivered to vcpu0 when either condition is met (on vcpu0): 1. local APIC is hardware disabled 2. LVT0 is unmasked and configured to delivery mode ExtInt It fixes the 2x faster wall clock on x86_64 and SMP i386 Linux guests Signed-off-by: Eddie (Yaozu) Dong <eddie.dong@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Qing He <qing.he@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
* KVM: Migrate lapic hrtimer when vcpu moves to another cpuEddie Dong2007-10-13
| | | | | | | | | | | This reduces overhead by accessing cachelines from the wrong node, as well as simplifying locking.

* KVM: Keep track of missed timer irq injectionsEddie Dong2007-10-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | APIC timer IRQ is set every time when a certain period expires at host time, but the guest may be descheduled at that time and thus the irq be overwritten by later fire. This patch keep track of firing irq numbers and decrease only when the IRQ is injected to guest or buffered in APIC.

* KVM: VMX: Use shadow TPR/cr8 for 64-bits guestsYang, Sheng2007-10-13
| | | | | | | | | | | This patch enables TPR shadow of VMX on CR8 access. 64bit Windows using CR8 access TPR frequently. The TPR shadow can improve the performance of access TPR by not causing vmexit.

* KVM: in-kernel LAPIC save and restore supportEddie Dong2007-10-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a new vcpu-based IOCTL to save and restore the local apic registers for a single vcpu. The kernel only copies the apic page as a whole, extraction of registers is left to userspace side. On restore, the APIC timer is restarted from the initial count, this introduces a little delay, but works fine.

* KVM: Emulate local APIC in kernelEddie Dong2007-10-13
Because lightweight exits (exits which don't involve userspace) are many times faster than heavyweight exits, it makes sense to emulate high usage devices in the kernel. The local APIC is one such device, especially for Windows and for SMP, so we add an APIC model to kvm. It also allows in-kernel host-side drivers to inject interrupts without going through userspace.
