2008-03-28lguest: comment documentation update.Rusty Russell
Took some cycles to re-read the Lguest Journey end-to-end, fix some rot and tighten some phrases. Only comments change. No new jokes, but a couple of recycled old jokes. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

2008-01-30x86: use generic register name in the thread and tss structuresH. Peter Anvin
This changes size-specific register names (eip/rip, esp/rsp, etc.) to generic names in the thread and tss structures. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30lguest: get rid of lg variable assignmentsGlauber de Oliveira Costa
We can save some lines of code by getting rid of *lg = cpu... lines of code spread everywhere by now. Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-01-30lguest: move changed bitmap to lg_cpuGlauber de Oliveira Costa
events represented in the 'changed' bitmap are per-cpu, not per-guest. move it to the lg_cpu structure Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-01-30lguest: move last_pages to lg_cpuGlauber de Oliveira Costa
in our new model, pages are assigned to a virtual cpu, not to a guest. We move it to the lg_cpu structure. Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-01-30lguest: change last_guest to last_cpuGlauber de Oliveira Costa
in our model, a guest does not run in a cpu anymore: a virtual cpu does. So we change last_guest to last_cpu Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-01-30lguest: per-vcpu lguest pgdir managementGlauber de Oliveira Costa
this patch makes the pgdir management per-vcpu. The pgdirs pool is still guest-wide (although it'll probably need to grow when we are really executing more vcpus), but the pgdidx index is gone, since it makes no sense anymore. Instead, we use a per-vcpu index. Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-01-30lguest: makes special fields be per-vcpuGlauber de Oliveira Costa
lguest struct have room for some fields, namely, cr2, ts, esp1 and ss1, that are not really guest-wide, but rather, vcpu-wide. This patch puts it in the vcpu struct Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-01-30lguest: replace lguest_arch with lg_cpu_arch.Glauber de Oliveira Costa
The fields found in lguest_arch are not really per-guest, but per-cpu (gdt, idt, etc). So this patch turns lguest_arch into lg_cpu_arch. It makes sense to have a per-guest per-arch struct, but this can be addressed later, when the need arrives. Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-01-30lguest: make registers per-vcpuGlauber de Oliveira Costa
This is the most obvious per-vcpu field: registers. So this patch moves it from struct lguest to struct vcpu, and patch the places in which they are used, accordingly Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-01-30lguest: make emulate_insn receive a vcpu struct.Glauber de Oliveira Costa
emulate_insn() needs to know about current eip, which will be, in the future, a per-vcpu thing. So in this patch, the function prototype is modified to receive a vcpu struct Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-01-30lguest: map_switcher_in_guest() per-vcpuGlauber de Oliveira Costa
The switcher needs to be mapped per-vcpu, because different vcpus will potentially have different page tables (they don't have to, because threads will share the same). So our first step is the make the function receive a vcpu struct Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-01-30lguest: per-vcpu interrupt processing.Glauber de Oliveira Costa
This patch adapts interrupt processing for using the vcpu struct. Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-01-30lguest: make hypercalls use the vcpu structGlauber de Oliveira Costa
this patch changes do_hcall() and do_async_hcall() interfaces (and obviously their callers) to get a vcpu struct. Again, a vcpu services the hypercall, not the whole guest Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-01-30lguest: per-cpu run guestGlauber de Oliveira Costa
This patch makes the run_guest() routine use the lg_cpu struct. This is required since in a smp guest environment, there's no more the notion of "running the guest", but rather, it is "running the vcpu" Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-01-25cpu-hotplug: replace lock_cpu_hotplug() with get_online_cpus()Gautham R Shenoy
Replace all lock_cpu_hotplug/unlock_cpu_hotplug from the kernel and use get_online_cpus and put_online_cpus instead as it highlights the refcount semantics in these operations. The new API guarantees protection against the cpu-hotplug operation, but it doesn't guarantee serialized access to any of the local data structures. Hence the changes needs to be reviewed. In case of pseries_add_processor/pseries_remove_processor, use cpu_maps_update_begin()/cpu_maps_update_done() as we're modifying the cpu_present_map there.

2007-10-23generalize lgread_u32/lgwrite_u32.Rusty Russell
Jes complains that page table code still uses lgread_u32 even though it now uses general kernel pte types. The best thing to do is to generalize lgread_u32 and lgwrite_u32. This means we lose the efficiency of getuser(). We could potentially regain it if we used __copy_from_user instead of copy_from_user, but I'm not certain that our range check is equivalent to access_ok() on all platforms.

2007-10-23Remove old lguest bus and drivers.Rusty Russell
This gets rid of the lguest bus, drivers and DMA mechanism, to make way for a generic virtio mechanism. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2007-10-23Boot with virtual == physical to get closer to native Linux.Rusty Russell
1) This allows us to get alot closer to booting bzImages. 2) It means we don't have to know page_offset. 3) The Guest needs to modify the boot pagetables to create the PAGE_OFFSET mapping before jumping to C code. 4) guest_pa() walks the page tables rather than using page_offset. 5) We don't use page_offset to figure out whether to emulate: it was always kinda quesationable, and won't work for instructions done before remapping (bzImage unpacking in particular). 6) We still want the kernel address for tlb flushing: have the initial hypercall give us that, too. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2007-10-23Allow guest to specify syscall vector to use.Rusty Russell
(Based on Ron Minnich's LGUEST_PLAN9_SYSCALL patch). This patch allows Guests to specify what system call vector they want, and we try to reserve it. We only allow one non-Linux system call vector, to try to avoid DoS on the Host. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2007-10-23Move register setup into i386_core.cJes Sorensen
Move setup_regs() to lguest_arch_setup_regs() in i386_core.c given that this is very architecture specific. Signed-off-by: Jes Sorensen <jes@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2007-10-23Make hypercalls arch-independent.Jes Sorensen
Clean up the hypercall code to make the code in hypercalls.c architecture independent. First process the common hypercalls and then call lguest_arch_do_hcall() if the call hasn't been handled. Rename struct hcall_ring to hcall_args. This patch requires the previous patch which reorganize the layout of struct lguest_regs on i386 so they match the layout of struct hcall_args.

2007-10-23Introduce "hcall" pointer to indicate pending hypercall.Rusty Russell
Currently we look at the "trapnum" to see if the Guest wants a hypercall. But once the hypercall is done we have to reset trapnum to a bogus value, otherwise if we exit to userspace and return, we'd run the same hypercall twice (that was a nasty bug to find!). This has two main effects: 1) When Jes's patch changes the hypercall args to be a generic "struct hcall_args" we simply change the type of "lg->hcall". It's set by arch code, so if it has to copy args or something it can do so, and point "hcall" into lg->arch somewhere. 2) Async hypercalls only get run when an actual hypercall is pending. This simplfies the code a little and is a more logical semantic. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2007-10-23Move i386 part of core.c to x86/core.c.Jes Sorensen
Separate i386 architecture specific from core.c and move it to x86/core.c and add x86/lguest.h header file to match. Signed-off-by: Jes Sorensen <jes@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
