Change from v2: re-written code in ''vmx_intr_assist'' into if()/else if() sequence to make code change easy to review. Virtual interrupt delivery avoids Xen to inject vAPIC interrupts manually, which is fully taken care of by the hardware. This needs some special awareness into existing interrupr injection path: For pending interrupt from vLAPIC, instead of direct injection, we

The "APIC-register virtualization" and "virtual-interrupt deliver" VM-execution control has no effect on the behavior of RDMSR/WRMSR if the "virtualize x2APIC mode" VM-execution control is 0. When guest uses x2APIC mode, we should enable "virtualize x2APIC mode" for APICV first. Signed-off-by: Jiongxi Li <jiongxi.li@intel.com> diff --git

SVI should be restored in case guest is processing virtual interrupt while saveing a domain state. Otherwise SVI would be missed when virtual interrupt delivery is enabled.

TPR shadow/threshold feature is important to speedup the boot time for Windows guest. Besides, it is a must feature for certain VMM. We map virtual APIC page address and TPR threshold from L1 VMCS, and synch it into shadow VMCS in virtual vmentry. If TPR_BELOW_THRESHOLD VM exit is triggered by L2 guest, we inject it into L1 VMM for handling. Besides, this commit fixes an issue for apic access

From: Yang Zhang <yang.z.zhang@Intel.com> With virtual unrestricted guest feature, L2 guest is allowed to run with PG cleared. Also, allow PAE not set during virtual vmexit emulation.

Changes from v2 to v3: - Use pfn_to_paddr() to get the address from frame number instead of doing shift directly. - Remove some unnecessary initialization code and add "static" to vmentry_fields and gpdptr_fields. - Enable the VMREAD/VMWRITE bitmap only if nested hvm is enabled. - Use clear_page() to set all 0 to the page instead of memset(). - Use domheap to allocate the

From: Yang Zhang <yang.z.zhang@Intel.com> The following patches fix the issue that fail to boot L2 guest on APIC-v available machine. The main problem is that with APIC-v, virtual interrupt inject L1 is totally through APIC-v. But if virtual interrupt is arrived when L2 is running, L1 will detect interrupt through vmexit with reason external interrupt. If this happens, we should update

From: Yang Zhang <yang.z.zhang@Intel.com> The follwoing patches are adding the Posted Interrupt supporting to Xen: Posted Interrupt allows vAPIC interrupts to inject into guest directly without any vmexit. - When delivering a interrupt to guest, if target vcpu is running, update Posted-interrupt requests bitmap and send a notification event to the vcpu. Then the vcpu will handle this
