2009-02-04xen: use direct ops on 64-bitJeremy Fitzhardinge

2009-02-04xen: make direct versions of irq_enable/disable/save/restore to common codeJeremy Fitzhardinge
Now that x86-64 has directly accessible percpu variables, it can also implement the direct versions of these operations, which operate on a vcpu_info structure directly embedded in the percpu area. In fact, the 64-bit versions are more or less identical, and so can be shared. The only two differences are: 1. xen_restore_fl_direct takes its argument in eax on 32-bit, and rdi on 64-bit. Unfortunately it isn't possible to directly refer to the 2nd lsb of rdi directly (as you can with %ah), so the code isn't quite as dense. 2. check_events needs to variants to save different registers.

2009-02-04xen: setup percpu data pointersJeremy Fitzhardinge
We need to access percpu data fairly early, so set up the percpu registers as soon as possible. We only need to load the appropriate segment register. We already have a GDT, but its hard to change it early because we need to manipulate the pagetable to do so, and that hasn't been set up yet. Also, set the kernel stack when bringing up secondary CPUs. If we don't they all end up sharing the same stack... Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: H.

2009-01-31x86: split loading percpu segments from loading gdtJeremy Fitzhardinge
Impact: split out a function, no functional change Xen needs to be able to access percpu data from very early on. For various reasons, it cannot also load the gdt at that time. It does, however, have a pefectly functional gdt at that point, so there's no pressing need to reload the gdt. Split the function to load the segment registers off, so Xen can call it directly.

2009-01-30x86/paravirt: use callee-saved convention for pte_val/make_pte/etcJeremy Fitzhardinge
Impact: Optimization In the native case, pte_val, make_pte, etc are all just identity functions, so there's no need to clobber a lot of registers over them. (This changes the 32-bit callee-save calling convention to return both EAX and EDX so functions can return 64-bit values.)

2009-01-30x86/paravirt: implement PVOP_CALL macros for callee-save functionsJeremy Fitzhardinge
Impact: Optimization Functions with the callee save calling convention clobber many fewer registers than the normal C calling convention. Implement variants of PVOP_V?CALL* accordingly. This only bothers with functions up to 3 args, since functions with more args may as well use the normal calling convention.

2009-01-30x86/paravirt: add register-saving thunks to reduce caller register pressureJeremy Fitzhardinge
Impact: Optimization One of the problems with inserting a pile of C calls where previously there were none is that the register pressure is greatly increased. The C calling convention says that the caller must expect a certain set of registers may be trashed by the callee, and that the callee can use those registers without restriction. This includes the function argument registers, and several others. This patch seeks to alleviate this pressure by introducing wrapper thunks that will do the register saving/restoring, so that the callsite doesn't need to worry about it, but the callee function can be conventional compiler-generated code. In many cases (particularly performance-sensitive cases) the callee will be in assembler anyway, and need not use the compiler's calling convention. Standard calling convention is: arguments return scratch x86-32 eax edx ecx eax ? x86-64 rdi rsi rdx rcx rax r8 r9 r10 r11 The thunk preserves all argument and scratch registers. The return register is not preserved, and is available as a scratch register for unwrapped callee code (and of course the return value). Wrapped function pointers are themselves wrapped in a struct paravirt_callee_save structure, in order to get some warning from the compiler when functions with mismatched calling conventions are used. The most common paravirt ops, both statically and dynamically, are interrupt enable/disable/save/restore, so handle them first. This is particularly easy since their calls are handled specially anyway. XXX Deal with VMI. What's their calling convention? Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
2009-01-30x86/paravirt: selectively save/restore regs around pvops callsJeremy Fitzhardinge
Impact: Optimization Each asm paravirt-ops call says what registers are available for clobbering. This patch makes use of this to selectively save/restore registers around each pvops call. In many cases this significantly shrinks code size. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
2009-01-30x86: fix paravirt clobber in entry_64.SJeremy Fitzhardinge
Impact: Fix latent bug The clobber is trying to say that anything except RDI is available for clobbering, but actually clobbers everything. This hasn't mattered because the clobbers were basically ignored, but subsequent patches will rely on them. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
2009-01-30x86/pvops: add a paravirt_ident functions to allow special patchingJeremy Fitzhardinge
Impact: Optimization Several paravirt ops implementations simply return their arguments, the most obvious being the make_pte/pte_val class of operations on native. On 32-bit, the identity function is literally a no-op, as the calling convention uses the same registers for the first argument and return. On 64-bit, it can be implemented with a single "mov". This patch adds special identity functions for 32 and 64 bit argument, and machinery to recognize them and replace them with either nops or a mov as appropriate. At the moment, the only users for the identity functions are the pagetable entry conversion functions. The result is a measureable improvement on pagetable-heavy benchmarks (2-3%, reducing the pvops overhead from 5 to 2%).

2009-01-30linker script: use separate simpler definition for PERCPU()Tejun Heo
Impact: fix linker screwup on x86_32 Recent x86_64 zerobased patches introduced PERCPU_VADDR() to put .data.percpu to a predefined address and re-defined PERCPU() in terms of it. The new macro defined one extra symbol, __per_cpu_load, for LMA of the section so that the init data could be accessed. This new symbol introduced the following problems to x86_32. 1. If __per_cpu_load is defined outside of .data.percpu as an absolute symbol, relocation generation for relocatable kernel fails due to absolute relocation. 2. If __per_cpu_load is put inside .data.percpu with absolute address assignment to work around #1, linker gets confused and under certain configurations ends up relocating the symbol against .data.percpu such that the load address gets added on top of already set load address. As x86_32 doesn't use predefined address for .data.percpu, there's no need for it to care about the possibility of __per_cpu_load being different from __per_cpu_start. This patch defines PERCPU() separately so that __per_cpu_load is defined inside .data.percpu so that everything is ordinary linking-wise.

2009-01-30Allow opportunistic merging of VM_CAN_NONLINEAR areasLinus Torvalds
Commit de33c8db5910cda599899dd431cc30d7c1018cbf ("Fix OOPS in mmap_region() when merging adjacent VM_LOCKED file segments") unified the vma merging of anonymous and file maps to just one place, which simplified the code and fixed a use-after-free bug that could cause an oops. But by doing the merge opportunistically before even having called ->mmap() on the file method, it now compares two different 'vm_flags' values: the pre-mmap() value of the new not-yet-formed vma, and previous mappings of the same file around it. And in doing so, it refused to merge the common file case, which adds a marker to say "I can be made non-linear". This fixes it by just adding a set of flags that don't have to match, because we know they are ok to merge. Currently it's only that single VM_CAN_NONLINEAR flag, but at least conceptually there could be others in the future.

If we get an I/O error on a read request there is no point in doing a verify pass on the integrity buffer. Adjust the completion path accordingly. Signed-off-by: Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2009-01-30ext4: Remove bogus BUG() check in ext4_bmap()Theodore Ts'o
The code to support journal-less ext4 operation added a BUG to ext4_bmap() which fired if there was no journal and the EXT4_STATE_JDATA bit was set in the i_state field. This caused running the filefrag program (which uses the FIMBAP ioctl) to trigger a BUG(). The EXT4_STATE_JDATA bit is only used for ext4_bmap(), and it's harmless for the bit to be set. We could add a check in __ext4_journalled_writepage() and ext4_journalled_write_end() to only set the EXT4_STATE_JDATA bit if the journal is present, but that adds an extra test and jump instruction. It's easier to simply remove the BUG check. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12568 Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: stable@kernel.org
