KVM: Initialize kvm before registering the mmu notifier
KVM: x86: use proper port value when checking io instruction permission
KVM: add missing void __user * cast to access_ok() call
It doesn't make sense to ever see a half-initialized kvm structure on
mmu notifier callbacks. Previously, 85722cda changed the ordering to
ensure that the mmu_lock was initialized before mmu notifier
registration, but there is still a race where the mmu notifier could
come in and try accessing other portions of struct kvm before they are
intialized.
Solve this by moving the mmu notifier registration to occur after the
structure is completely initialized.

For GRU and EPT, we need gup-fast to set referenced bit too (this is why
it's correct to return 0 when shadow_access_mask is zero, it requires
gup-fast to set the referenced bit). qemu-kvm access already sets the
young bit in the pte if it isn't zero-copy, if it's zero copy or a shadow
paging EPT minor fault we relay on gup-fast to signal the page is in
use...
We also need to check the young bits on the secondary pagetables for NPT
and not nested shadow mmu as the data may never get accessed again by the
primary pte.
Without this closer accuracy, we'd have to remove the heuristic that
avoids collapsing hugepages in hugepage virtual regions that have not even
a single subpage in use.
->test_young is full backwards compatible with GRU and other usages that
don't have young bits in pagetables set by the hardware and that should
nuke the secondary mmu mappings when ->clear_flush_young runs just like
EPT does.
Removing the heuristic that checks the young bit in
khugepaged/collapse_huge_page completely isn't so bad either probably but
I thought it was worth it and this makes it reliable.

Store irq routing table pointer in the irqfd object,
and use that to inject MSI directly without bouncing out to
a kernel thread.
While we touch this structure, rearrange irqfd fields to make fastpath
better packed for better cache utilization.
This also adds some comments about locking rules and rcu usage in code.
Some notes on the design:
- Use pointer into the rt instead of copying an entry,
to make it possible to use rcu, thus side-stepping
locking complexities. We also save some memory this way.
- Old workqueue code is still used for level irqs.
I don't think we DTRT with level anyway, however,
it seems easier to keep the code around as
it has been thought through and debugged, and fix level later than
rip out and re-instate it later.

Currently x86's kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log() needs to allocate a bitmap by
vmalloc() which will be used in the next logging and this has been causing
bad effect to VGA and live-migration: vmalloc() consumes extra systime,
triggers tlb flush, etc.
This patch resolves this issue by pre-allocating one more bitmap and switching
between two bitmaps during dirty logging.
Performance improvement:
I measured performance for the case of VGA update by trace-cmd.
The result was 1.5 times faster than the original one.
In the case of live migration, the improvement ratio depends on the workload
and the guest memory size. In general, the larger the memory size is the more
benefits we get.
Note:
This does not change other architectures's logic but the allocation size
becomes twice. This will increase the actual memory consumption only when
the new size changes the number of pages allocated by vmalloc().

If there are active VCPUs which are marked as belonging to
a particular hardware CPU, request a clock sync for them when
enabling hardware; the TSC could be desynchronized on a newly
arriving CPU, and we need to recompute guests system time
relative to boot after a suspend event.
This covers both cases.
Note that it is acceptable to take the spinlock, as either
no other tasks will be running and no locks held (BSP after
resume), or other tasks will be guaranteed to drop the lock
relatively quickly (AP on CPU_STARTING).
Noting we now get clock synchronization requests for VCPUs
which are starting up (or restarting), it is tempting to
attempt to remove the arch/x86/kvm/x86.c CPU hot-notifiers
at this time, however it is not correct to do so; they are
required for systems with non-constant TSC as the frequency
may not be known immediately after the processor has started
until the cpufreq driver has had a chance to run and query
the chipset.
Updated: implement better locking semantics for hardware_enable
Removed the hack of dropping and retaking the lock by adding the
semantic that we always hold kvm_lock when hardware_enable is
called. The one place that doesn't need to worry about it is
resume, as resuming a frozen CPU, the spinlock won't be taken.

* 'llseek' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/bkl:
vfs: make no_llseek the default
vfs: don't use BKL in default_llseek
llseek: automatically add .llseek fop
libfs: use generic_file_llseek for simple_attr
mac80211: disallow seeks in minstrel debug code
lirc: make chardev nonseekable
viotape: use noop_llseek
raw: use explicit llseek file operations
ibmasmfs: use generic_file_llseek
spufs: use llseek in all file operations
arm/omap: use generic_file_llseek in iommu_debug
lkdtm: use generic_file_llseek in debugfs
net/wireless: use generic_file_llseek in debugfs
drm: use noop_llseek
All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.
The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.
New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.
The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.
Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.
Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

When we reboot, we disable vmx extensions or otherwise INIT gets blocked.
If a task on another cpu hits a vmx instruction, it will fault if vmx is
disabled. We trap that to avoid a nasty oops and spin until the reboot
completes.
Problem is, we sleep with interrupts disabled. This blocks smp_send_stop()
from running, and the reboot process halts.
Fix by enabling interrupts before spinning.

In common cases, guest SRAO MCE will cause corresponding poisoned page
be un-mapped and SIGBUS be sent to QEMU-KVM, then QEMU-KVM will relay
the MCE to guest OS.
But it is reported that if the poisoned page is accessed in guest
after unmapping and before MCE is relayed to guest OS, userspace will
be killed.
The reason is as follows. Because poisoned page has been un-mapped,
guest access will cause guest exit and kvm_mmu_page_fault will be
called. kvm_mmu_page_fault can not get the poisoned page for fault
address, so kernel and user space MMIO processing is tried in turn. In
user MMIO processing, poisoned page is accessed again, then userspace
is killed by force_sig_info.
To fix the bug, kvm_mmu_page_fault send HWPOISON signal to QEMU-KVM
and do not try kernel and user space MMIO processing for poisoned
page.

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

the ioapic mutex.
On large guests, this causes a lot of contention on this mutex. Since large
guests usually don't route interrupts via the ioapic (they use msi instead),
this is completely unnecessary.
Avoid taking the mutex by introducing a handled_vectors bitmap. Before taking
the mutex, check if the ioapic was actually responsible for the acked vector.
If not, we can return early.

Looks like repeatedly binding same fd to multiple gsi's with irqfd can
use up a ton of kernel memory for irqfd structures.
A simple fix is to allow each fd to only trigger one gsi: triggering a
storm of interrupts in guest is likely useless anyway, and we can do it
by binding a single gsi to many interrupts if we really want to.

X86 CPUs need to have some magic happening to enable the virtualization
extensions on them. This magic can result in unpleasant results for
users, like blocking other VMMs from working (vmx) or using invalid TLB
entries (svm).
Currently KVM activates virtualization when the respective kernel module
is loaded. This blocks us from autoloading KVM modules without breaking
other VMMs.
To circumvent this problem at least a bit, this patch introduces on
demand activation of virtualization. This means, that instead
virtualization is enabled on creation of the first virtual machine
and disabled on destruction of the last one.
So using this, KVM can be easily autoloaded, while keeping other
hypervisors usable.

We currently use host endian long types to store information

This works reasonably well on Little Endian targets, because the

breaks completely though, forcing us to be inventive here.
So Ben suggested to always use Little Endian, which looks reasonable.
We only have dirty bitmap implemented in Little Endian targets so far
and since PowerPC would be the first Big Endian platform, we can just
as well switch to Little Endian always with little effort without

kvm_init()
kvm_init_debug()
kvm_arch_init() <-- stores debugfs dentries internally
(success, etc)
# modprobe kvm-amd
kvm_init()

kvm_arch_init()
kvm_exit_debug() <-- and frees them
# rmmod kvm-intel
kvm_exit()
kvm_exit_debug() <-- double free of debugfs files!
*BOOM*
If execution gets to the end of kvm_init(), then the calling module has been
established as the kvm provider. Move the debugfs initialization to the end of
the function, and remove the now-unnecessary call to kvm_exit_debug() from the
error path. That way we avoid trampling on the debugfs entries and freeing

ioeventfd is a mechanism to register PIO/MMIO regions to trigger an eventfd
signal when written to by a guest. Host userspace can register any
arbitrary IO address with a corresponding eventfd and then pass the eventfd
to a specific end-point of interest for handling.
Normal IO requires a blocking round-trip since the operation may cause
side-effects in the emulated model or may return data to the caller.
Therefore, an IO in KVM traps from the guest to the host, causes a VMX/SVM
"heavy-weight" exit back to userspace, and is ultimately serviced by qemu's
device model synchronously before returning control back to the vcpu.
However, there is a subclass of IO which acts purely as a trigger for
other IO (such as to kick off an out-of-band DMA request, etc). For these
patterns, the synchronous call is particularly expensive since we really
only want to simply get our notification transmitted asychronously and
return as quickly as possible. All the sychronous infrastructure to ensure
proper data-dependencies are met in the normal IO case are just unecessary
overhead for signalling. This adds additional computational load on the
system, as well as latency to the signalling path.
Therefore, we provide a mechanism for registration of an in-kernel trigger
point that allows the VCPU to only require a very brief, lightweight
exit just long enough to signal an eventfd. This also means that any
clients compatible with the eventfd interface (which includes userspace
and kernelspace equally well) can now register to be notified. The end
result should be a more flexible and higher performance notification API
for the backend KVM hypervisor and perhipheral components.
To test this theory, we built a test-harness called "doorbell". This
module has a function called "doorbell_ring()" which simply increments a
counter for each time the doorbell is signaled. It supports signalling
from either an eventfd, or an ioctl().
We then wired up two paths to the doorbell: One via QEMU via a registered
io region and through the doorbell ioctl(). The other is direct via
ioeventfd.
You can download this test harness here:
ftp://ftp.novell.com/dev/ghaskins/doorbell.tar.bz2
The measured results are as follows:
qemu-mmio: 110000 iops, 9.09us rtt
ioeventfd-mmio: 200100 iops, 5.00us rtt
ioeventfd-pio: 367300 iops, 2.72us rtt
I didn't measure qemu-pio, because I have to figure out how to register a
PIO region with qemu's device model, and I got lazy. However, for now we
can extrapolate based on the data from the NULLIO runs of +2.56us for MMIO,
and -350ns for HC, we get:
qemu-pio: 153139 iops, 6.53us rtt
ioeventfd-hc: 412585 iops, 2.37us rtt
these are just for fun, for now, until I can gather more data.
Here is a graph for your convenience:
http://developer.novell.com/wiki/images/7/76/Iofd-chart.png
The conclusion to draw is that we save about 4us by skipping the userspace
hop.

KVM: s390: streamline memslot handling
s390 uses the values of the memslot instead of doing everything in the arch
ioctl handler of the KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION. Unfortunately we missed to
set the userspace_addr of our memslot due to our s390 ifdef in
__kvm_set_memory_region.
Old s390 userspace launchers did not notice, since they started the guest at
userspace address 0.
Because of CONFIG_DEFAULT_MMAP_MIN_ADDR we now put the guest at 1M userspace,
which does not work. This patch makes sure that new.userspace_addr is set
on s390.
This fix should go in quickly. Nevertheless, looking at the code we should
clean up that ifdef in the long term. Any kernel janitors?

the KVM infrastructure. This patch adds a new mechanism to inject a specific
