[PATCH v2 1/6] better kvm detection

[Gerd Hoffmann]

In case kvm emulates features of another hypervisor (for example hyperv)
two VMM CPUID blocks will be present, one for the emulated hypervisor
and one for kvm itself.

This patch makes seabios loop over the VMM CPUID blocks to make sure it
will properly detect kvm when multiple blocks are present.

[PATCH v2 2/6] detect physical address space size

[Gerd Hoffmann]

Check for pae and long mode using cpuid.  If present also read the
physical address bits.  Apply some qemu sanity checks (see below).
Record results in PhysBits and LongMode variables.  In case we are not
sure what the address space size is leave the PhysBits variable unset.

On qemu we have the problem that for historical reasons x86_64
processors advertise 40 physical address space bits by default, even in
case the host supports less than that so actually using the whole
address space will not work.

Because of that the code applies some extra sanity checks in case we
find 40 (or less) physical address space bits advertised.  Only
known-good values (which is 40 for amd processors and 36+39 for intel
processors) will be accepted as valid.

Recommendation is to use 'qemu -cpu ${name},host-phys-bits=on' to
advertise valid physical address space bits to the guest.  Some distro
builds enable this by default, and most likely the qemu default will
change in near future too.

Odd that LongMode is an "int" while PhysBits is a u8..  Would probably
be simpler to do: LongMode = !!(edx & (1 << 29))  - and then treat it as
a flag variable.

Since these variables are exported, it might also be worthwhile to
give them more descriptive names - for example CPUPhysBits and
CPULongMode.

Separately, series looks fine to me.

[PATCH v2 4/6] be less conservative with the 64bit pci io window

[Gerd Hoffmann]

Current seabios code will only enable and use the 64bit pci io window in
case it runs out of space in the 32bit pci mmio window below 4G.

This patch will also enable the 64bit pci io window when
  (a) RAM above 4G is present, and
  (b) the physical address space size is known, and
  (c) seabios is running on a 64bit capable processor.

This operates with the assumption that guests which are ok with memory
above 4G most likely can handle mmio above 4G too.

In case the 64bit pci io window is enabled also assign more memory to
prefetchable pci bridge windows and the complete 64bit pci io window.

The total mmio window size is 1/8 of the physical address space.
Minimum bridge windows size is 1/256 of the total mmio window size.
