Masatake YAMATO e46b469278 kvm: embed vcpu id to dentry of vcpu anon inode
All d-entries for vcpu have the same, "anon_inode:kvm-vcpu". That means
it is impossible to know the mapping between fds for vcpu and vcpu
from userland.

    # LC_ALL=C ls -l /proc/617/fd | grep vcpu
    lrwx------. 1 qemu qemu 64 Jan  7 16:50 18 -> anon_inode:kvm-vcpu
    lrwx------. 1 qemu qemu 64 Jan  7 16:50 19 -> anon_inode:kvm-vcpu

It is also impossible to know the mapping between vma for kvm_run
structure and vcpu from userland.

    # LC_ALL=C grep vcpu /proc/617/maps
    7f9d842d0000-7f9d842d3000 rw-s 00000000 00:0d 20393                      anon_inode:kvm-vcpu
    7f9d842d3000-7f9d842d6000 rw-s 00000000 00:0d 20393                      anon_inode:kvm-vcpu

This change adds vcpu id to d-entries for vcpu. With this change
you can get the following output:

    # LC_ALL=C ls -l /proc/617/fd | grep vcpu
    lrwx------. 1 qemu qemu 64 Jan  7 16:50 18 -> anon_inode:kvm-vcpu:0
    lrwx------. 1 qemu qemu 64 Jan  7 16:50 19 -> anon_inode:kvm-vcpu:1

    # LC_ALL=C grep vcpu /proc/617/maps
    7f9d842d0000-7f9d842d3000 rw-s 00000000 00:0d 20393                      anon_inode:kvm-vcpu:0
    7f9d842d3000-7f9d842d6000 rw-s 00000000 00:0d 20393                      anon_inode:kvm-vcpu:1

With the mappings known from the output, a tool like strace can report more details
of qemu-kvm process activities. Here is the strace output of my local prototype:

    # ./strace -KK -f -p 617 2>&1 | grep 'KVM_RUN\| K'
    ...
    [pid   664] ioctl(18, KVM_RUN, 0)       = 0 (KVM_EXIT_MMIO)
     K ready_for_interrupt_injection=1, if_flag=0, flags=0, cr8=0000000000000000, apic_base=0x000000fee00d00
     K phys_addr=0, len=1634035803, [33, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], is_write=112
    [pid   664] ioctl(18, KVM_RUN, 0)       = 0 (KVM_EXIT_MMIO)
     K ready_for_interrupt_injection=1, if_flag=1, flags=0, cr8=0000000000000000, apic_base=0x000000fee00d00
     K phys_addr=0, len=1634035803, [33, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], is_write=112
    ...

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
