2009-12-14locking: Convert raw_spinlock to arch_spinlockThomas Gleixner
The raw_spin* namespace was taken by lockdep for the architecture specific implementations. raw_spin_* would be the ideal name space for the spinlocks which are not converted to sleeping locks in preempt-rt. Linus suggested to convert the raw_ to arch_ locks and cleanup the name space instead of using an artifical name like core_spin, atomic_spin or whatever No functional change.

2009-12-04PCI: add pci_request_acsChris Wright
Commit ae21ee65e8bc228416bbcc8a1da01c56a847a60c "PCI: acs p2p upsteram forwarding enabling" doesn't actually enable ACS. Add a function to pci core to allow an IOMMU to request that ACS be enabled. The existing mechanism of using iommu_found() in the pci core to know when ACS should be enabled doesn't actually work due to initialization order; iommu has only been detected not initialized. Have Intel and AMD IOMMUs request ACS, and Xen does as well during early init of dom0.

2009-12-03xen: call clock resume notifier on all CPUsIan Campbell
tick_resume() is never called on secondary processors. Presumably this is because they are offlined for suspend on native and so this is normally taken care of in the CPU onlining path. Under Xen we keep all CPUs online over a suspend. This patch papers over the issue for me but I will investigate a more generic, less hacky, way of doing to the same. tick_suspend is also only called on the boot CPU which I presume should be fixed too.

2009-12-03xen: use iret for return from 64b kernel to 32b usermodeJeremy Fitzhardinge
If Xen wants to return to a 32b usermode with sysret it must use the right form. When using VCGF_in_syscall to trigger this, it looks at the code segment and does a 32b sysret if it is FLAT_USER_CS32. However, this is different from __USER32_CS, so it fails to return properly if we use the normal Linux segment. So avoid the whole mess by dropping VCGF_in_syscall and simply use plain iret to return to usermode.

2009-11-16x86, mm: Clean up and simplify NX enablementH. Peter Anvin
The 32- and 64-bit code used very different mechanisms for enabling NX, but even the 32-bit code was enabling NX in head_32.S if it is available. Furthermore, we had a bewildering collection of tests for the available of NX. This patch: a) merges the 32-bit set_nx() and the 64-bit check_efer() function into a single x86_configure_nx() function. EFER control is left to the head code. b) eliminates the nx_enabled variable entirely. Things that need to test for NX enablement can verify __supported_pte_mask directly, and cpu_has_nx gives the supported status of NX. Signed-off-by: H.

2009-09-09xen: use stronger barrier after unlocking lockYang Xiaowei
We need to have a stronger barrier between releasing the lock and checking for any waiting spinners. A compiler barrier is not sufficient because the CPU's ordering rules do not prevent the read xl->spinners from happening before the unlock assignment, as they are different memory locations. We need to have an explicit barrier to enforce the write-read ordering to different memory locations. Because of it, I can't bring up > 4 HVM guests on one SMP machine.

2009-09-09xen: only enable interrupts while actually blocking for spinlockJeremy Fitzhardinge
Where possible we enable interrupts while waiting for a spinlock to become free, in order to reduce big latency spikes in interrupt handling. However, at present if we manage to pick up the spinlock just before blocking, we'll end up holding the lock with interrupts enabled for a while. This will cause a deadlock if we recieve an interrupt in that window, and the interrupt handler tries to take the lock too. Solve this by shrinking the interrupt-enabled region to just around the blocking call.

2009-09-09xen: make -fstack-protector work under XenJeremy Fitzhardinge
-fstack-protector uses a special per-cpu "stack canary" value. gcc generates special code in each function to test the canary to make sure that the function's stack hasn't been overrun. On x86-64, this is simply an offset of %gs, which is the usual per-cpu base segment register, so setting it up simply requires loading %gs's base as normal. On i386, the stack protector segment is %gs (rather than the usual kernel percpu %fs segment register). This requires setting up the full kernel GDT and then loading %gs accordingly. We also need to make sure %gs is initialized when bringing up secondary cpus too. To keep things consistent, we do the full GDT/segment register setup on both architectures. Because we need to avoid -fstack-protected code before setting up the GDT and because there's no way to disable it on a per-function basis, several files need to have stack-protector inhibited.

Xen always runs on CPUs which properly support WP enforcement in privileged mode, so there's no need to test for it. This also works around a crash reported by Arnd Hannemann, though I think its just a band-aid for that case.

2009-05-15x86: Fix performance regression caused by paravirt_ops on native kernelsJeremy Fitzhardinge
Xiaohui Xin and some other folks at Intel have been looking into what's behind the performance hit of paravirt_ops when running native. It appears that the hit is entirely due to the paravirtualized spinlocks introduced by: | commit 8efcbab674de2bee45a2e4cdf97de16b8e609ac8 | Date: Mon Jul 7 12:07:51 2008 -0700 | | paravirt: introduce a "lock-byte" spinlock implementation The extra call/return in the spinlock path is somehow causing an increase in the cycles/instruction of somewhere around 2-7% (seems to vary quite a lot from test to test). The working theory is that the CPU's pipeline is getting upset about the call->call->locked-op->return->return, and seems to be failing to speculate (though I haven't seen anything definitive about the precise reasons). This doesn't entirely make sense, because the performance hit is also visible on unlock and other operations which don't involve locked instructions. But spinlock operations clearly swamp all the other pvops operations, even though I can't imagine that they're nearly as common (there's only a .05% increase in instructions executed). If I disable just the pv-spinlock calls, my tests show that pvops is identical to non-pvops performance on native (my measurements show that it is actually about .1% faster, but Xiaohui shows a .05% slowdown). Summary of results, averaging 10 runs of the "mmperf" test, using a no-pvops build as baseline: nopv Pv-nospin Pv-spin CPU cycles 100.00% 99.89% 102.18% instructions 100.00% 100.10% 100.15% CPI 100.00% 99.79% 102.03% cache ref 100.00% 100.84% 100.28% cache miss 100.00% 90.47% 88.56% cache miss rate 100.00% 89.72% 88.31% branches 100.00% 99.93% 100.04% branch miss 100.00% 103.66% 107.72% branch miss rt 100.00% 103.73% 107.67% wallclock 100.00% 99.90% 102.20% The clear effect here is that the 2% increase in CPI is directly reflected in the final wallclock time. (The other interesting effect is that the more ops are out of line calls via pvops, the lower the cache access and miss rates. Not too surprising, but it suggests that the non-pvops kernel is over-inlined. On the flipside, the branch misses go up correspondingly...) So, what's the fix? Paravirt patching turns all the pvops calls into direct calls, so _spin_lock etc do end up having direct calls. For example, the compiler generated code for paravirtualized _spin_lock is: <_spin_lock+0>: mov %gs:0xb4c8,%rax <_spin_lock+9>: incl 0xffffffffffffe044(%rax) <_spin_lock+15>: callq *0xffffffff805a5b30 <_spin_lock+22>: retq The indirect call will get patched to: <_spin_lock+0>: mov %gs:0xb4c8,%rax <_spin_lock+9>: incl 0xffffffffffffe044(%rax) <_spin_lock+15>: callq <__ticket_spin_lock> <_spin_lock+20>: nop; nop /* or whatever 2-byte nop */ <_spin_lock+22>: retq One possibility is to inline _spin_lock, etc, when building an optimised kernel (ie, when there's no spinlock/preempt instrumentation/debugging enabled). That will remove the outer call/return pair, returning the instruction stream to a single call/return, which will presumably execute the same as the non-pvops case. The downsides arel 1) it will replicate the preempt_disable/enable code at eack lock/unlock callsite; this code is fairly small, but not nothing; and 2) the spinlock definitions are already a very heavily tangled mass of #ifdefs and other preprocessor magic, and making any changes will be non-trivial. The other obvious answer is to disable pv-spinlocks. Making them a separate config option is fairly easy, and it would be trivial to enable them only when Xen is enabled (as the only non-default user). But it doesn't really address the common case of a distro build which is going to have Xen support enabled, and leaves the open question of whether the native performance cost of pv-spinlocks is worth the performance improvement on a loaded Xen system (10% saving of overall system CPU when guests block rather than spin). Still it is a reasonable short-term workaround.
