[PATCH] target/i386: Add Bus Lock Detect support
Posted by Ravi Bangoria 4 months, 2 weeks ago
Upcoming AMD uarch will support Bus Lock Detect (called Bus Lock Trap
in AMD docs). Bus Lock Detect is enumerated with cpuid Fn0000_0007_ECX_x0
bit [24 / BUSLOCKTRAP]. It can be enabled through MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR.
When enabled, hardware clears DR6[11] and raises a #DB exception on
occurrence of Bus Lock if CPL > 0. More detail about the feature can be
found in AMD APM[1].

Qemu supports remote debugging through host gdb (the "gdbstub" facility)
where some of the remote debugging features like instruction and data
breakpoints relies on the same hardware infrastructure (#DB, DR6 etc.)
that Bus Lock Detect also uses. Instead of handling internally, KVM
forwards #DB to Qemu when remote debugging is ON and #DB is being
intercepted. It's Qemu's responsibility to re-inject the exception to
guest when some of the exception source bits (in DR6) are not being
handled by Qemu remote debug handler. Bus Lock Detect is one such case.
