The boot time for direct kernel boot based tests is significantly
quicker than booting via the firmware and stock kernel as it triggers a
reboot during the boot process due to the initrd handling.
Signed-off-by: Rob Bradford <robert.bradford@intel.com>
When doing a direct kernel boot only have console=ttyS0 in the command
line if we are explicitly testing the serial output. The default
behaviour is `--serial null` so this output will not be visible but will
trigger a KVM exit for every byte which is very costly when running
under nested virtualization.

Starting the virtio device threads from the VMM thread has slowed down
the start of the VM when running on a highly contested system like the
CI.
Signed-off-by: Rob Bradford <robert.bradford@intel.com>
When a device is ready to be activated signal to the VMM thread via an
EventFd that there is a device to be activated. When the VMM receives a
notification on the EventFd that there is a device to be activated
notify the device manager to attempt to activate any devices that have
not been activated.
As a side effect the VMM thread will create the virtio device threads.
Fixes: #1863
Signed-off-by: Rob Bradford <robert.bradford@intel.com>
We need to be able to return the barrier from the code that prepares to
activate the virtio device. This triggered by a write to the
configuration fields stored in the PCI BAR. Since bars can be accessed
by both memory mapping and through PCI config I/O several prototypes
must be changed.
Signed-off-by: Rob Bradford <robert.bradford@intel.com>
This can be uses to indicate to the caller that it should wait on the
barrier before returning as there is some asynchronous activity
triggered by the write which requires the KVM exit to block until it's
completed.
This is useful for having vCPU thread wait for the VMM thread to proceed
to activate the virtio devices.
See #1863

Currently these two macros(msr, msr_data) reside both on kvm and mshv
module. Definition is same for both module. Moving them to arch/x86

On the CI we are seeing that sometimes the epoll is receiving these

Since we can't test mshv and kvm at the same time, --all-features no
longer work.
We factorize all, non-hypervisor related features into a common set and
mix that with either mshv and kvm.

There are some code base and function which are purely KVM specific for
now and we don't have those supports in mshv at the moment but we have plan

those code we are making the code base for KVM specific compilation.
