The faulting instruction needs to be restarted when the exception handler
is done handling the fault. bhyve now does this correctly by setting
'vmexit[vcpu].inst_length' to zero so the %rip is not advanced.
A minor complication is that the fault injection APIs are used by instruction
emulation code that is shared by vmm.ko and bhyve. Thus the argument that
refers to 'struct vm *' in kernel or 'struct vmctx *' in userspace needs to
be loosely typed as a 'void *'.
A nested exception condition arises when a second exception is triggered while
delivering the first exception. Most nested exceptions can be handled serially
but some are converted into a double fault. If an exception is generated during
delivery of a double fault then the virtual machine shuts down as a result of
a triple fault.
vm_exit_intinfo() is used to record that a VM-exit happened while an event was
being delivered through the IDT. If an exception is triggered while handling
the VM-exit it will be treated like a nested exception.
vm_entry_intinfo() is used by processor-specific code to get the event to be
injected into the guest on the next VM-entry. This function is responsible for

In the Intel VT-x case, a pending NMI or interrupt will enable the interrupt

is injected. Also since interrupts are inherently asynchronous, injecting
them after the hardware exception should not affect correctness from the
guest perspective.

to a virtual machine then we implicitly create COM1 and COM2 ISA devices.
Prior to this change the only way of attaching a COM port to the virtual
machine was by presenting it as a PCI device that is mapped at the legacy
I/O address 0x3F8 or 0x2F8.
There were some issues with the original approach:
- It did not work at all with UEFI because UEFI will reprogram the PCI device
BARs and remap the COM1/COM2 ports at non-legacy addresses.
- OpenBSD GENERIC kernel does not create a /dev/console because it expects
the uart device at the legacy 0x3F8/0x2F8 address to be an ISA device.
- It was functional with a FreeBSD guest but caused the console to appear
on /dev/ttyu2 which was not intuitive.
The uart emulation is now independent of the bus on which it resides. Thus it
is possible to have uart devices on the PCI bus in addition to the legacy
COM1/COM2 devices behind the LPC bus.
The command line option to attach ISA COM1/COM2 ports to a virtual machine is
"-s <bus>,lpc -l com1,stdio".
The command line option to create a PCI-attached uart device is:
"-s <bus>,uart[,stdio]"
The command line option to create PCI-attached COM1/COM2 device is:
"-S <bus>,uart[,stdio]". This style of creating COM ports is deprecated.

Make the amd64/pmap code aware of nested page table mappings used by bhyve
guests. This allows bhyve to associate each guest with its own vmspace and
deal with nested page faults in the context of that vmspace. This also
enables features like accessed/dirty bit tracking, swapping to disk and
transparent superpage promotions of guest memory.
Guest vmspace:
Each bhyve guest has a unique vmspace to represent the physical memory
allocated to the guest. Each memory segment allocated by the guest is
mapped into the guest's address space via the 'vmspace->vm_map' and is
backed by an object of type OBJT_DEFAULT.
pmap types:
The amd64/pmap now understands two types of pmaps: PT_X86 and PT_EPT.
The PT_X86 pmap type is used by the vmspace associated with the host kernel
as well as user processes executing on the host. The PT_EPT pmap is used by
the vmspace associated with a bhyve guest.
Page Table Entries:
The EPT page table entries as mostly similar in functionality to regular
page table entries although there are some differences in terms of what
bits are used to express that functionality. For e.g. the dirty bit is
represented by bit 9 in the nested PTE as opposed to bit 6 in the regular
x86 PTE. Therefore the bitmask representing the dirty bit is now computed
at runtime based on the type of the pmap. Thus PG_M that was previously a
macro now becomes a local variable that is initialized at runtime using
'pmap_modified_bit(pmap)'.
An additional wrinkle associated with EPT mappings is that older Intel
processors don't have hardware support for tracking accessed/dirty bits in
the PTE. This means that the amd64/pmap code needs to emulate these bits to
provide proper accounting to the VM subsystem. This is achieved by using
the following mapping for EPT entries that need emulation of A/D bits:
Bit Position Interpreted By
PG_V 52 software (accessed bit emulation handler)
PG_RW 53 software (dirty bit emulation handler)
PG_A 0 hardware (aka EPT_PG_RD)
PG_M 1 hardware (aka EPT_PG_WR)
The idea to use the mapping listed above for A/D bit emulation came from
Alan Cox (alc@).
The final difference with respect to x86 PTEs is that some EPT implementations
do not support superpage mappings. This is recorded in the 'pm_flags' field
of the pmap.
TLB invalidation:
The amd64/pmap code has a number of ways to do invalidation of mappings
that may be cached in the TLB: single page, multiple pages in a range or the
entire TLB. All of these funnel into a single EPT invalidation routine called
'pmap_invalidate_ept()'. This routine bumps up the EPT generation number and
sends an IPI to the host cpus that are executing the guest's vcpus. On a
subsequent entry into the guest it will detect that the EPT has changed and
invalidate the mappings from the TLB.
Guest memory access:
Since the guest memory is no longer wired we need to hold the host physical
page that backs the guest physical page before we can access it. The helper
functions 'vm_gpa_hold()/vm_gpa_release()' are available for this purpose.
PCI passthru:
Guest's with PCI passthru devices will wire the entire guest physical address
space. The MMIO BAR associated with the passthru device is backed by a
vm_object of type OBJT_SG. An IOMMU domain is created only for guest's that
have one or more PCI passthru devices attached to them.
Limitations:
There isn't a way to map a guest physical page without execute permissions.
This is because the amd64/pmap code interprets the guest physical mappings as
user mappings since they are numerically below VM_MAXUSER_ADDRESS. Since PG_U
shares the same bit position as EPT_PG_EXECUTE all guest mappings become
automatically executable.
Thanks to Alan Cox and Konstantin Belousov for their rigorous code reviews
as well as their support and encouragement.
Thanks for John Baldwin for reviewing the use of OBJT_SG as the backing
object for pci passthru mmio regions.
