2009-06-10KVM: x86: silence preempt warning on kvm_write_guest_timeMatt T. Yourst
This issue just appeared in kvm-84 when running on 2.6.28.7 (x86-64) with PREEMPT enabled. We're getting syslog warnings like this many (but not all) times qemu tells KVM to run the VCPU: BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: qemu-system-x86/28938 caller is kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run+0x5d1/0xc70 [kvm] Pid: 28938, comm: qemu-system-x86 2.6.28.7-mtyrel-64bit Call Trace: debug_smp_processor_id+0xf7/0x100 kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run+0x5d1/0xc70 [kvm] ? __wake_up+0x4e/0x70 ? wake_futex+0x27/0x40 kvm_vcpu_ioctl+0x2e9/0x5a0 [kvm] enqueue_hrtimer+0x8a/0x110 _spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x27/0x50 vfs_ioctl+0x31/0xa0 do_vfs_ioctl+0x74/0x480 sys_futex+0xb4/0x140 sys_ioctl+0x99/0xa0 system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b As it turns out, the call trace is messed up due to gcc's inlining, but I isolated the problem anyway: kvm_write_guest_time() is being used in a non-thread-safe manner on preemptable kernels. Basically kvm_write_guest_time()'s body needs to be surrounded by preempt_disable() and preempt_enable(), since the kernel won't let us query any per-CPU data (indirectly using smp_processor_id()) without preemption disabled. The attached patch fixes this issue by disabling preemption inside kvm_write_guest_time().

2009-06-10KVM: Enable MSI-X for KVM assigned deviceSheng Yang
This patch finally enable MSI-X. What we need for MSI-X: 1. Intercept one page in MMIO region of device. So that we can get guest desired MSI-X table and set up the real one. Now this have been done by guest, and transfer to kernel using ioctl KVM_SET_MSIX_NR and KVM_SET_MSIX_ENTRY. 2. Information for incoming interrupt. Now one device can have more than one interrupt, and they are all handled by one workqueue structure. So we need to identify them. The previous patch enable gsi_msg_pending_bitmap get this done. 3. Mapping from host IRQ to guest gsi as well as guest gsi to real MSI/MSI-X message address/data. We used same entry number for the host and guest here, so that it's easy to find the correlated guest gsi. What we lack for now: 1. The PCI spec said nothing can existed with MSI-X table in the same page of MMIO region, except pending bits. The patch ignore pending bits as the first step (so they are always 0 - no pending). 2. The PCI spec allowed to change MSI-X table dynamically. That means, the OS can enable MSI-X, then mask one MSI-X entry, modify it, and unmask it. The patch didn't support this, and Linux also don't work in this way. 3. The patch didn't implement MSI-X mask all and mask single entry. I would implement the former in driver/pci/msi.c later. And for single entry, userspace should have reposibility to handle it. Signed-off-by: Sheng Yang <sheng@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

2009-06-10KVM: VMX: Don't intercept MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASEAvi Kivity
Windows 2008 accesses this MSR often on context switch intensive workloads; since we run in guest context with the guest MSR value loaded (so swapgs can work correctly), we can simply disable interception of rdmsr/wrmsr for this MSR. A complication occurs since in legacy mode, we run with the host MSR value loaded. In this case we enable interception. This means we need two MSR bitmaps, one for legacy mode and one for long mode.

Outlining fixes the issue were on certain CPUs such as the R10000 family the delay loop would need an extra cycle if it overlaps a cacheline boundary. The rewrite also fixes build errors with GCC 4.4 which was changed in way incompatible with the kernel's inline assembly. Relying on pure C for computation of the delay value removes the need for explicit. The price we pay is a slight slowdown of the computation - to be fixed on another day.

2009-06-02[ARM] ARMv7 errata: only apply fixes when running on applicable CPURussell King
Currently, whenever an erratum workaround is enabled, it will be applied whether or not the erratum is relevent for the CPU. This patch changes this - we check the variant and revision fields in the main ID register to determine which errata to apply. We also avoid re-applying erratum 460075 if it has already been applied. Applying this fix in non-secure mode results in the kernel failing to boot (or even do anything.) This fixes booting on some ARMv7 based platforms which otherwise silently fail.

2009-05-29x86: ignore VM_LOCKED when determining if hugetlb-backed page tables can be ↵Mel Gorman
shared or not Addresses http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13302 On x86 and x86-64, it is possible that page tables are shared beween shared mappings backed by hugetlbfs. As part of this, page_table_shareable() checks a pair of vma->vm_flags and they must match if they are to be shared. All VMA flags are taken into account, including VM_LOCKED. The problem is that VM_LOCKED is cleared on fork(). When a process with a shared memory segment forks() to exec() a helper, there will be shared VMAs with different flags. The impact is that the shared segment is sometimes considered shareable and other times not, depending on what process is checking. What happens is that the segment page tables are being shared but the count is inaccurate depending on the ordering of events. As the page tables are freed with put_page(), bad pmd's are found when some of the children exit. The hugepage counters also get corrupted and the Total and Free count will no longer match even when all the hugepage-backed regions are freed. This requires a reboot of the machine to "fix". This patch addresses the problem by comparing all flags except VM_LOCKED when deciding if pagetables should be shared or not for hugetlbfs-backed mapping.

2009-05-29flat: fix data sections alignmentOskar Schirmer
The flat loader uses an architecture's flat_stack_align() to align the stack but assumes word-alignment is enough for the data sections. However, on the Xtensa S6000 we have registers up to 128bit width which can be used from userspace and therefor need userspace stack and data-section alignment of at least this size. This patch drops flat_stack_align() and uses the same alignment that is required for slab caches, ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN, or wordsize if it's not defined by the architecture. It also fixes m32r which was obviously kaput, aligning an uninitialized stack entry instead of the stack pointer.

2009-05-28[ARM] Add cmpxchg support for ARMv6+ systems (v5)Mathieu Desnoyers
Add cmpxchg/cmpxchg64 support for ARMv6K and ARMv7 systems (original patch from Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>) The cmpxchg and cmpxchg64 functions can be implemented using the LDREX*/STREX* instructions. Since operand lengths other than 32bit are required, the full implementations are only available if the ARMv6K extensions are present (for the LDREXB, LDREXH and LDREXD instructions). For ARMv6, only 32-bits cmpxchg is available. Mathieu : Make cmpxchg_local always available with best implementation for all type sizes (1, 2, 4 bytes). Make cmpxchg64_local always available. Use "Ir" constraint for "old" operand, like atomic.h atomic_cmpxchg does. Change since v3 : - Add "memory" clobbers (thanks to Nicolas Pitre) - removed __asmeq(), only needed for old compilers, very unlikely on ARMv6+. Note : ARMv7-M should eventually be ifdefed-out of cmpxchg64. But it's not supported by the Linux kernel currently. Put back arm < v6 cmpxchg support.

2009-05-28[ARM] barriers: improve xchg, bitops and atomic SMP barriersRussell King
Mathieu Desnoyers pointed out that the ARM barriers were lacking: - cmpxchg, xchg and atomic add return need memory barriers on architectures which can reorder the relative order in which memory read/writes can be seen between CPUs, which seems to include recent ARM architectures. Those barriers are currently missing on ARM. - test_and_xxx_bit were missing SMP barriers. So put these barriers in. Provide separate atomic_add/atomic_sub operations which do not require barriers.

2009-05-27powerpc: Fix up dma_alloc_coherent() on platforms without cache coherency.Benjamin Herrenschmidt
The implementation we just revived has issues, such as using a Kconfig-defined virtual address area in kernel space that nothing actually carves out (and thus will overlap whatever is there), or having some dependencies on being self contained in a single PTE page which adds unnecessary constraints on the kernel virtual address space. This fixes it by using more classic PTE accessors and automatically locating the area for consistent memory, carving an appropriate hole in the kernel virtual address space, leaving only the size of that area as a Kconfig option. It also brings some dma-mask related fixes from the ARM implementation which was almost identical initially but grew its own fixes. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
