| * | | | | KVM: PPC: Expose magic page support to guestAlexander Graf2010-10-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that we have the shared page in place and the MMU code knows about the magic page, we can expose that capability to the guest!

When the guest tells us to project it, the magic page overrides any guest mappings. In order to reflect that, we need to hook into all the MMU layers of KVM to force map the magic page if necessary.

| * | | | | KVM: PPC: Tell guest about pending interruptsAlexander Graf2010-10-24

Because if so, it should rather get out of guest context and get the interrupt. So we introduce a new field in the shared page that we use to tell the guest that there's a pending interrupt lying around.

To achieve this, we have an additional critical field in the shared page. If that field is equal to the r1 register of the guest, it tells the hypervisor that we're in such a critical section and thus may not receive any interrupts.

They get written to by the hypervisor when an interrupt occurs or directly by the kernel. They are also used to tell the rfi(d) instruction where to jump to. Because it only gets touched on defined events that, it's very simple to share with the guest. Hypervisor and guest both have full r/w access.

The MSR contains the "interrupts enabled" flag which the guest has to toggle in critical sections. So in order to bring the overhead of interrupt en- and disabling down, let's put msr into the shared page. Keep in mind that even though you can fully read its contents, writing to it doesn't always update all state. There are a few safe fields that don't require hypervisor interaction. See the documentation for a list of MSR bits that are safe to be set from inside the guest. Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

It turns out that this is code which isn't used, but might still serve a purpose. Since it isn't obvious why it exists or why it causes problems, the below description covers both in detail. For powerpc bootstrap, the physical memory (at most 768M), is mapped into the kernel space via the following path: MMU_init() | + adjust_total_lowmem() | + map_mem_in_cams() | + settlbcam(i, virt, phys, cam_sz, PAGE_KERNEL_X, 0); On settlbcam(), the kernel will create TLB entries according to the flag, PAGE_KERNEL_X. settlbcam() { ... TLBCAM[index].MAS1 = MAS1_VALID | MAS1_IPROT | MAS1_TSIZE(tsize) | MAS1_TID(pid); ^ These entries cannot be invalidated by the kernel since MAS1_IPROT is set on TLB property. ... if (flags & _PAGE_USER) { TLBCAM[index].MAS3 |= MAS3_UX | MAS3_UR; TLBCAM[index].MAS3 |= ((flags & _PAGE_RW) ? MAS3_UW : 0); } For classic BookE (flags & _PAGE_USER) is 'zero' so it's fine. But on boards like the the Freescale P4080, we want to support 36-bit physical address on it. So the following options may be set: CONFIG_FSL_BOOKE=y CONFIG_PTE_64BIT=y CONFIG_PHYS_64BIT=y As a result, boards like the P4080 will introduce PTE format as Book3E. As per the file: arch/powerpc/include/asm/pgtable-ppc32.h * #elif defined(CONFIG_FSL_BOOKE) && defined(CONFIG_PTE_64BIT) * #include <asm/pte-book3e.h> So PAGE_KERNEL_X is __pgprot(_PAGE_BASE | _PAGE_KERNEL_RWX) and the book3E version of _PAGE_KERNEL_RWX is defined with: (_PAGE_BAP_SW | _PAGE_BAP_SR | _PAGE_DIRTY | _PAGE_BAP_SX) Note the _PAGE_BAP_SR, which is also defined in the book3E _PAGE_USER: #define _PAGE_USER (_PAGE_BAP_UR | _PAGE_BAP_SR) /* Can be read */ So the possibility exists to wrongly assign the user MAS3_U<RWX> bits to kernel (PAGE_KERNEL_X) address space via the following code fragment: if (flags & _PAGE_USER) { TLBCAM[index].MAS3 |= MAS3_UX | MAS3_UR; TLBCAM[index].MAS3 |= ((flags & _PAGE_RW) ? MAS3_UW : 0); } Here is a dump of the TLB info from Simics with the above code present: ------ L2 TLB1 GT SSS UUU V I Row Logical Physical SS TLPID TID WIMGE XWR XWR F P V ----- ----------------- ------------------- -- ----- ----- ----- --- --- - - - 0 c0000000-cfffffff 000000000-00fffffff 00 0 0 M XWR XWR 0 1 1 1 d0000000-dfffffff 010000000-01fffffff 00 0 0 M XWR XWR 0 1 1 2 e0000000-efffffff 020000000-02fffffff 00 0 0 M XWR XWR 0 1 1 Actually this conditional code was used for two legacy functions: 1: support KGDB to set break point. KGDB already dropped this; now uses its core write to set break point. 2: io_block_mapping() to create TLB in segmentation size (not PAGE_SIZE) for device IO space. This use case is also removed from the latest PowerPC kernel. However, there may still be a use case for it in the future, like large user pages, so we can't remove it entirely. As an alternative, we match on all bits of _PAGE_USER instead of just any bits, so the case where just _PAGE_BAP_SR is set can't sneak through. With this done, the TLB appears without U having XWR as below: ------- L2 TLB1 GT SSS UUU V I Row Logical Physical SS TLPID TID WIMGE XWR XWR F P V ----- ----------------- ------------------- -- ----- ----- ----- --- --- - - - 0 c0000000-cfffffff 000000000-00fffffff 00 0 0 M XWR 0 1 1 1 d0000000-dfffffff 010000000-01fffffff 00 0 0 M XWR 0 1 1 2 e0000000-efffffff 020000000-02fffffff 00 0 0 M XWR 0 1 1 Signed-off-by: Tiejun Chen <tiejun.chen@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org>

This restores those files. To do this, we now have a hook that the cpu accounting code will call as it processes each entry from the hypervisor dispatch trace log. The code in dtl.c now uses that to fill up its ring buffer, rather than having the hypervisor fill the ring buffer directly. This also fixes dtl_file_read() to handle overflow conditions a bit better and adds a spinlock to ensure that race conditions (multiple processes opening or reading the file concurrently) are handled correctly.

This turns out to be quite confusing for users because it means that a program will often be measured as taking less time when run on a multi-threaded processor (SMT2 or SMT4 mode) than it does when run on a single-threaded processor (ST mode), even though the program takes longer to finish. The discrepancy is accounted for as stolen time, which is also confusing, particularly when there are no other partitions running. This changes the accounting to use the timebase instead, meaning that the reported user and system times are the actual number of real-time seconds that the program was executing on the processor thread, regardless of which SMT mode the processor is in. Thus a program will generally show greater user and system times when run on a multi-threaded processor than on a single-threaded processor. On pSeries systems on POWER5 or later processors, we measure the stolen time (time when this partition wasn't running) using the hypervisor dispatch trace log. We check for new entries in the log on every entry from user mode and on every transition from kernel process context to soft or hard IRQ context (i.e. when account_system_vtime() gets called). So that we can correctly distinguish time stolen from user time and time stolen from system time, without having to check the log on every exit to user mode, we store separate timestamps for exit to user mode and entry from user mode. On systems that have a SPURR (POWER6 and POWER7), we read the SPURR in account_system_vtime() (as before), and then apportion the SPURR ticks since the last time we read it between scaled user time and scaled system time according to the relative proportions of user time and system time over the same interval. This avoids having to read the SPURR on every kernel entry and exit. On systems that have PURR but not SPURR (i.e., POWER5), we do the same using the PURR rather than the SPURR. This disables the DTL user interface in /sys/debug/kernel/powerpc/dtl for now since it conflicts with the use of the dispatch trace log by the time accounting code.

If we don't include support for legacy iSeries, only the first lppaca is statically allocated; the rest are dynamically allocated. If we include legacy iSeries support, then we statically allocate the first 64 lppaca structs, since the iSeries hypervisor requires that the lppaca structs be present in the data section of the kernel image, but legacy iSeries supports at most 64 cpus. With CONFIG_NR_CPUS, the kernel image size for a typical pSeries config went from: text data bss dec hex filename 9524478 4734564 8469944 22728986 15ad11a ../test-1024/vmlinux to: text data bss dec hex filename 9524482 3751508 8469944 21745934 14bd10e ../test-1024/vmlinux a reduction of 983052 bytes overall.

In future we would like to allocate them dynamically, so this abstracts out the accesses to the array, making it easier to change how we locate the lppaca for a given cpu in future. Specifically, lppaca[cpu] changes to lppaca_of(cpu). Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
| * | | | | powerpc: Feature nop out reservation clear when stcx checks addressAnton Blanchard2010-09-02

This means it is possible for an an exception handler to execute a larx, get a reservation, decide not to do the stcx and then return back with an active reservation. If the interrupted code was in the middle of a larx/stcx sequence the stcx could incorrectly succeed. All recent POWER CPUs check the address before letting the stcx succeed so we can create a CPU feature and nop it out. As Ben suggested, we can only do this in our syscall path because there is a remote possibility some kernel code gets interrupted by an exception that ends up operating on the same cacheline. Thanks to Paul Mackerras and Derek Williams for the idea. To test this I used a very simple null syscall (actually getppid) testcase at http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/null_syscall.c I tested against 2.6.35-git10 with the following changes against the pseries_defconfig: CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING=n CONFIG_AUDIT=n CONFIG_PPC_4K_PAGES=n CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES=y CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER=9 CONFIG_PPC_SUBPAGE_PROT=n CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER=n CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER=n CONFIG_IRQSOFF_TRACER=n CONFIG_STACK_TRACER=n to remove the overhead of virtual CPU accounting, syscall auditing and the ftrace mcount tracers. 64kB pages were enabled to minimise TLB misses. POWER6: +8.2% POWER7: +7.0% Another suggestion was to use a larx to something in the L1 instead of a stcx. This was almost as fast as removing the larx on POWER6, but only 3.5% faster on POWER7. We can use this to speed up the reservation clear in our exception exit code. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

It is -no-longer- cropped to MEMBLOCK_REAL_LIMIT which disappears. Note to archs: I'm leaving the default limit to MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ANYWHERE. I strongly recommend that you ensure that you set an appropriate limit during boot in order to guarantee that an memblock_alloc() at any time results in something that is accessible with a simple __va().

It is most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers. Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also benefit. The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately. Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in processing the work.

This patch assumes NULL will cause __get_user()/__put_user() to either fail or access userspace on all architectures. This should be followed by checking the return value of compat_access_user_space() for NULL in the callers, at which time the access_ok() in the callers can also be removed.

Due to recent kernel changes, this header must be directly included by code that calls into the memory allocator. Without this patch, any code which includes this header fails to build.

However, there's some nasty issues with that. It needs to be initialized statically -and- lib/rwsem.c does things like sem->count = RWSEM_UNLOCKED_VALUE; Now, if you mix in the fact that atomic_* types are actually structures with one member and note typedefs of a scalar, it makes its really nasty. So I stuck to what we did before using a long and casts for now. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
