[Qemu-devel] [PATCH RESEND v3 1/2] x86/cpu: Add support for UMONITOR/UMW


From: Tao Xu
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH RESEND v3 1/2] x86/cpu: Add support for UMONITOR/UMWAIT/TPAUSE
Date: Fri, 21 Jun 2019 14:51:33 +0800

UMONITOR, UMWAIT and TPAUSE are a set of user wait instructions.
This patch adds support for user wait instructions in KVM. Availability
of the user wait instructions is indicated by the presence of the CPUID
feature flag WAITPKG CPUID.0x07.0x0:ECX[5]. User wait instructions may
be executed at any privilege level, and use IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL MSR to
set the maximum time.

The patch enable the umonitor, umwait and tpause features in KVM.
Because umwait and tpause can put a (psysical) CPU into a power saving
state, by default we dont't expose it to kvm and enable it only when
guest CPUID has it. And use QEMU command-line "-overcommit cpu-pm=on"
(enable_cpu_pm is enabled), a VM can use UMONITOR, UMWAIT and TPAUSE
instructions. If the instruction causes a delay, the amount of time
delayed is called here the physical delay. The physical delay is first
computed by determining the virtual delay (the time to delay relative to
the VM’s timestamp counter). Otherwise, UMONITOR, UMWAIT and TPAUSE cause
an invalid-opcode exception(#UD).

changes in v3:
        Simplify the patches, expose user wait instructions when the guest
        has CPUID (Paolo)
