The cpu address of a source cpu (responsible for an external irq) is only to
be stored if bit 6 of the ext irq code is set.
If bit 6 is not set, it is to be zeroed out.
The special external irq code used for virtio and pfault uses the cpu addr as a
parameter field. As bit 6 is set, this implementation is correct.

We currently track the pid of the task that runs the VCPU in vcpu_load.
If a yield to that VCPU is triggered while the PID of the wrong thread
is active, the wrong thread might receive a yield, but this will most
likely not help the executing thread at all. Instead, if we only track
the pid on the KVM_RUN ioctl, there are two possibilities:
1) the thread that did a non-KVM_RUN ioctl is holding a mutex that
the VCPU thread is waiting for. In this case, the VCPU thread is not
runnable, but we also do not do a wrong yield.
2) the thread that did a non-KVM_RUN ioctl is sleeping, or doing
something that does not block the VCPU thread. In this case, the
VCPU thread can receive the directed yield correctly.

kvm_enter_guest() has to be called with preemption disabled and will
set PF_VCPU. Current code takes PF_VCPU as a hint that the VCPU thread
is running and therefore needs no yield.
However, the check on PF_VCPU is wrong on s390, where preemption has
to stay enabled in order to correctly process page faults. Thus,
s390 reenables preemption and starts to execute the guest. The thread
might be scheduled out between kvm_enter_guest() and kvm_exit_guest(),
resulting in PF_VCPU being set but not being run. When this happens,
the opportunity for directed yield is missed.
However, this check is done already in kvm_vcpu_on_spin before calling
kvm_vcpu_yield_loop:
if (!ACCESS_ONCE(vcpu->preempted))
continue;
so the check on PF_VCPU is superfluous in general, and this patch
removes it.

Current linear search doesn't scale well when

Taking in account that memslots don't overlap, it's

As result of switching to binary search lookup times

When injecting a floating interrupt and no CPU is idle we
kick one CPU to do an external exit. In case of I/O we
should trigger an I/O exit instead. This does not matter
for Linux guests as external and I/O interrupts are
enabled/disabled at the same time, but play safe anyway.
The same holds true for machine checks. Since there is no
special exit, just reuse the generic stop exit. The injection
code inside the VCPU loop will recheck anyway and rearm the
proper exits (e.g. control registers) if necessary.

possibility that the instruction did not get run directly but via an

In this case, the PSW does not point to the instruction that caused the

KVM ia64 is no longer present so new applications shouldn't use them.
The main problem is that they most likely didn't work even before,
because of a conflict in the #defines:
#define KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG _IOW(KVMIO, 0x9b, struct kvm_guest_debug)
#define KVM_IA64_VCPU_SET_STACK _IOW(KVMIO, 0x9b, void *)
The argument to KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG is:
struct kvm_guest_debug {
__u32 control;
__u32 pad;
struct kvm_guest_debug_arch arch;
};
struct kvm_guest_debug_arch {
};
meaning that sizeof(struct kvm_guest_debug) == sizeof(void *) == 8
and KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG == KVM_IA64_VCPU_SET_STACK.
KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG is handled in virt/kvm/kvm_main.c before even calling

When segment is accessed, real hardware does not perform any privilege level
checks. In contrast, KVM emulator does. This causes some discrepencies from
real hardware. For instance, reading from readable code segment may fail due to
incorrect segment checks. In addition, it introduces unnecassary overhead.
To reference Intel SDM 5.5 ("Privilege Levels"): "Privilege levels are checked
when the segment selector of a segment descriptor is loaded into a segment
register." The SDM never mentions privilege level checks during memory access,
except for loading far pointers in section 5.10 ("Pointer Validation"). Those
are actually segment selector loads and are emulated in the similarily (i.e.,
regardless to __linearize checks).
This behavior was also checked using sysexit. A data-segment whose DPL=0 was
loaded, and after sysexit (CPL=3) it is still accessible.
Therefore, all the privilege level checks in __linearize are removed.

When performing segmented-read/write in the emulator for stack operations, it
ignores the stack size, and uses the ad_bytes as indication for the pointer
size. As a result, a wrong address may be accessed.
To fix this behavior, we can remove the masking of address in __linearize and
perform it beforehand. It is already done for the operands (so currently it is
inefficiently done twice). It is missing in two cases:
1. When using rip_relative
2. On fetch_bit_operand that changes the address.
This patch masks the address on these two occassions, and removes the masking
from __linearize.
Note that it does not mask EIP during fetch. In protected/legacy mode code
fetch when RIP >= 2^32 should result in #GP and not wrap-around. Since we make
limit checks within __linearize, this is the expected behavior.
