instantiation of new shadow pages for that slot, but allows destruction),
then instantiate the new empty slot.

We treated the DEC interrupt like an edge based one. This is not true for
Book3s. The DEC keeps firing until mtdec is issued again and thus clears
the interrupt line.
So let's implement this logic in KVM too. This patch moves the line clearing
from the firing of the interrupt to the mtdec emulation.
This makes PPC64 guests work without AGGRESSIVE_DEC defined.

We're using a switch table to find the irqprio that belongs to a specific
interrupt vector. This table is part of the interrupt inject logic.
Since we'll add a new function to stop interrupts, let's move this table
out of the injection logic into a separate function.

The tsc_offset adjustment in svm_vcpu_load is executed
unconditionally even if Linux considers the host tsc as
stable. This causes a Linux guest detecting an unstable tsc
in any case.
This patch removes the tsc_offset adjustment if the host tsc
is stable. The guest will now get the benefit of a stable
tsc too.

shared_msr_global saved host value of relevant MSRs, but it have an
assumption that all MSRs it tracked shared the value across the different
CPUs. It's not true with some MSRs, e.g. MSR_TSC_AUX.
Extend it to per CPU to provide the support of MSR_TSC_AUX, and more
alike MSRs.
Notice now the shared_msr_global still have one assumption: it can only deal
with the MSRs that won't change in host after KVM module loaded.

ept_update_paging_mode_cr4() accesses vcpu->arch.cr4 directly, which usually
needs to be accessed via kvm_read_cr4(). In this case, we can't, since cr4
is in the process of being updated. Instead of adding inane comments, fold
the function into its caller (vmx_set_cr4), so it can use the not-yet-committed
cr4 directly.
Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <[email protected]>
We make no use of cr4.pge if ept is enabled, but the guest does (to flush
global mappings, as with vmap()), so give the guest ownership of this bit.

Instead of specifying the bits which we want to trap on, specify the bits
which we allow the guest to change transparently. This is safer wrt future
changes to cr4.
Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <[email protected]>
Some bits of cr4 can be owned by the guest on vmx, so when we read them,
we copy them to the vcpu structure. In preparation for making the set of
guest-owned bits dynamic, use helpers to access these bits so we don't need
to know where the bit resides.
No changes to svm since all bits are host-owned there.
Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <[email protected]>
We don't support these instructions, but guest can execute them even if the
feature('monitor') haven't been exposed in CPUID. So we would trap and inject
a #UD if guest try this way.

When we queue data buffers for ordered write, the buffers are added
to the head of the ordered write list. When the log needs to push
these buffers to disk, it also walks the list from the head. The
result is that the the ordered buffers are submitted to disk in
reverse order.
For large writes, this means that whenever the log flushes large
streams of reverse sequential order buffers are pushed down into the
block layers. The elevators don't handle this particularly well, so
IO rates tend to be significantly lower than if the IO was issued in
ascending block order.
Queue new ordered buffers to the tail of the ordered buffer list to
ensure that IO is dispatched in the order it was submitted. This
should significantly improve large sequential write speeds. On a
disk capable of 85MB/s, speeds increase from 50MB/s to 65MB/s for
noop and from 38MB/s to 50MB/s for cfq.

As a consequence of the previous patch, we can now remove the
loop which used to be required due to the circular dependency
between the inodes and glocks. Instead we can just invalidate
the inodes, and then clear up any glocks which are left.
Also we no longer need the rwsem since there is no longer any
danger of the inode invalidation calling back into the glock
code (and from there back into the inode code).
Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <[email protected]>
Since the start of GFS2, an "extra" inode has been used to store
the metadata belonging to each inode. The only reason for using
this inode was to have an extra address space, the other fields
were unused. This means that the memory usage was rather inefficient.
The reason for keeping each inode's metadata in a separate address
space is that when glocks are requested on remote nodes, we need to
be able to efficiently locate the data and metadata which relating
to that glock (inode) in order to sync or sync and invalidate it
(depending on the remotely requested lock mode).
This patch adds a new type of glock, which has in addition to
its normal fields, has an address space. This applies to all
inode and rgrp glocks (but to no other glock types which remain
as before). As a result, we no longer need to have the second
inode.
This results in three major improvements:
1. A saving of approx 25% of memory used in caching inodes
2. A removal of the circular dependency between inodes and glocks
3. No confusion between "normal" and "metadata" inodes in super.c
Although the first of these is the more immediately apparent, the
second is just as important as it now enables a number of clean
ups at umount time. Those will be the subject of future patches.
