66f7b72e11 KVM: x86: Make register state after reset conform to specification
VMX behaves now as SVM wrt to FPU initialization. Code has been moved to
generic code path. General-purpose registers are now cleared on reset and
INIT.  SVM code properly initializes EDX.

630e1e0bcd Merge branch 'rcu/next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into core/rcu
Conflicts:
	arch/x86/kernel/ptrace.c

Pull the latest RCU tree from Paul E. McKenney:

"       The major features of this series are:

  1.	A first version of no-callbacks CPUs.  This version prohibits
  	offlining CPU 0, but only when enabled via CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU=y.
  	Relaxing this constraint is in progress, but not yet ready
  	for prime time.  These commits were posted to LKML at
  	https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/724, and are at branch rcu/nocb.

  2.	Changes to SRCU that allows statically initialized srcu_struct
  	structures.  These commits were posted to LKML at
  	https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/296, and are at branch rcu/srcu.

  3.	Restructuring of RCU's debugfs output.  These commits were posted
  	to LKML at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/341, and are at
  	branch rcu/tracing.

  4.	Additional CPU-hotplug/RCU improvements, posted to LKML at
  	https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/327, and are at branch rcu/hotplug.
  	Note that the commit eliminating __stop_machine() was judged to
  	be too-high of risk, so is deferred to 3.9.

  5.	Changes to RCU's idle interface, most notably a new module
  	parameter that redirects normal grace-period operations to
  	their expedited equivalents.  These were posted to LKML at
  	https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/739, and are at branch rcu/idle.

  6.	Additional diagnostics for RCU's CPU stall warning facility,
  	posted to LKML at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/315, and
  	are at branch rcu/stall.  The most notable change reduces the
  	default RCU CPU stall-warning time from 60 seconds to 21 seconds,
  	so that it once again happens sooner than the softlockup timeout.

  7.	Documentation updates, which were posted to LKML at
  	https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/280, and are at branch rcu/doc.
  	A couple of late-breaking changes were posted at
  	https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/16/634 and
  	https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/16/547.

  8.	Miscellaneous fixes, which were posted to LKML at
  	https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/30/309, along with a late-breaking
  	change posted at Fri, 16 Nov 2012 11:26:25 -0800 with message-ID
  	<20121116192625.GA447@linux.vnet.ibm.com>, but which lkml.org
  	seems to have missed.  These are at branch rcu/fixes.

  9.	Finally, a fix for an lockdep-RCU splat was posted to LKML
  	at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/7/486.  This is at rcu/next. "

644c154186 x86, fpu: Avoid FPU lazy restore after suspend
When a cpu enters S3 state, the FPU state is lost.
After resuming for S3, if we try to lazy restore the FPU for a process running
on the same CPU, this will result in a corrupted FPU context.

Ensure that "fpu_owner_task" is properly invalided when (re-)initializing a CPU,
so nobody will try to lazy restore a state which doesn't exist in the hardware.

Tested with a 64-bit kernel on a 4-core Ivybridge CPU with eagerfpu=off,
by doing thousands of suspend/resume cycles with 4 processes doing FPU
operations running. Without the patch, a process is killed after a
few hundreds cycles by a SIGFPE.

ba904635d4 KVM: x86: Emulate IA32_TSC_ADJUST MSR
CPUID.7.0.EBX[1]=1 indicates IA32_TSC_ADJUST MSR 0x3b is supported

Basic design is to emulate the MSR by allowing reads and writes to a guest
vcpu specific location to store the value of the emulated MSR while adding
the value to the vmcs tsc_offset. In this way the IA32_TSC_ADJUST value will
be included in all reads to the TSC MSR whether through rdmsr or rdtsc. This
is of course as long as the "use TSC counter offsetting" VM-execution control
is enabled as well as the IA32_TSC_ADJUST control.

However, because hardware will only return the TSC + IA32_TSC_ADJUST +
vmsc tsc_offset for a guest process when it does and rdtsc (with the correct
settings) the value of our virtualized IA32_TSC_ADJUST must be stored in one
of these three locations. The argument against storing it in the actual MSR
is performance. This is likely to be seldom used while the save/restore is
required on every transition. IA32_TSC_ADJUST was created as a way to solve
some issues with writing TSC itself so that is not an option either.

The remaining option, defined above as our solution has the problem of
returning incorrect vmcs tsc_offset values (unless we intercept and fix, not
done here) as mentioned above. However, more problematic is that storing the
data in vmcs tsc_offset will have a different semantic effect on the system
than does using the actual MSR. This is illustrated in the following example:

The hypervisor set the IA32_TSC_ADJUST, then the guest sets it and a guest
process performs a rdtsc. In this case the guest process will get
TSC + IA32_TSC_ADJUST_hyperviser + vmsc tsc_offset including
IA32_TSC_ADJUST_guest. While the total system semantics changed the semantics
as seen by the guest do not and hence this will not cause a problem.

8fe8ab46be KVM: x86: Add code to track call origin for msr assignment
In order to track who initiated the call (host or guest) to modify an msr
value I have changed function call parameters along the call path. The
specific change is to add a struct pointer parameter that points to (index,
data, caller) information rather than having this information passed as
individual parameters.

The initial use for this capability is for updating the IA32_TSC_ADJUST msr
while setting the tsc value. It is anticipated that this capability is
useful for other tasks.

91d1aa43d3 context_tracking: New context tracking susbsystem
Create a new subsystem that probes on kernel boundaries
to keep track of the transitions between level contexts
with two basic initial contexts: user or kernel.

This is an abstraction of some RCU code that use such tracking
to implement its userspace extended quiescent state.

We need to pull this up from RCU into this new level of indirection
because this tracking is also going to be used to implement an "on
demand" generic virtual cputime accounting. A necessary step to
shutdown the tick while still accounting the cputime.

If vcpu load vmcs with vmcs.cpu = -1, it can be directly added to cpu's percpu

reading vmcs->cpu. Meanwhile, we should remove vmcs from the list before

e6c7d32172 KVM: VMX: fix invalid cpu passed to smp_call_function_single
In loaded_vmcs_clear, loaded_vmcs->cpu is the fist parameter passed to
smp_call_function_single, if the target cpu is downing (doing cpu hot remove),
loaded_vmcs->cpu can become -1 then -1 is passed to smp_call_function_single

It can be triggered when vcpu is being destroyed, loaded_vmcs_clear is called
in the preemptionable context

859f8450d8 KVM: use is_idle_task() instead of idle_cpu() to decide when to halt in async_pf
As Frederic pointed idle_cpu() may return false even if async fault
happened in the idle task if wake up is pending. In this case the code
will try to put idle task to sleep. Fix this by using is_idle_task() to
check for idle task.

394b40f62d xen/acpi: Move the xen_running_on_version_or_later function.
As on ia64 builds we get:
include/xen/interface/version.h: In function 'xen_running_on_version_or_later':
include/xen/interface/version.h:76: error: implicit declaration of function 'HYPERVISOR_xen_version'

We can later on make this function exportable if there are
modules using part of it. For right now the only two users are
built-in.

d98d07ca7e KVM: x86: update pvclock area conditionally, on cpu migration
As requested by Glauber, do not update kvmclock area on vcpu->pcpu
migration, in case the host has stable TSC.

This is to reduce cacheline bouncing.

b48aa97e38 KVM: x86: require matched TSC offsets for master clock
With master clock, a pvclock clock read calculates:

ret = system_timestamp + [ (rdtsc + tsc_offset) - tsc_timestamp ]

Where 'rdtsc' is the host TSC.

system_timestamp and tsc_timestamp are unique, one tuple
per VM: the "master clock".

Given a host with synchronized TSCs, its obvious that
guest TSC must be matched for the above to guarantee monotonicity.

Allow master clock usage only if guest TSCs are synchronized.

d828199e84 KVM: x86: implement PVCLOCK_TSC_STABLE_BIT pvclock flag
KVM added a global variable to guarantee monotonicity in the guest.
One of the reasons for that is that the time between

	1. ktime_get_ts(&timespec);
	2. rdtscll(tsc);

Is variable. That is, given a host with stable TSC, suppose that
two VCPUs read the same time via ktime_get_ts() above.

The time required to execute 2. is not the same on those two instances
executing in different VCPUS (cache misses, interrupts...).

If the TSC value that is used by the host to interpolate when
calculating the monotonic time is the same value used to calculate
the tsc_timestamp value stored in the pvclock data structure, and
a single <system_timestamp, tsc_timestamp> tuple is visible to all
vcpus simultaneously, this problem disappears. See comment on top
of pvclock_update_vm_gtod_copy for details.

Monotonicity is then guaranteed by synchronicity of the host TSCs
and guest TSCs.

Set TSC stable pvclock flag in that case, allowing the guest to read
clock from userspace.
