2013-02-06KVM: MMU: lazily drop large spteXiao Guangrong
Currently, kvm zaps the large spte if write-protected is needed, the later read can fault on that spte. Actually, we can make the large spte readonly instead of making them not present, the page fault caused by read access can be avoided The idea is from Avi: | As I mentioned before, write-protecting a large spte is a good idea, | since it moves some work from protect-time to fault-time, so it reduces | jitter. This removes the need for the return value.

2013-02-05KVM: VMX: disable SMEP feature when guest is in non-paging modeDongxiao Xu
SMEP is disabled if CPU is in non-paging mode in hardware. However KVM always uses paging mode to emulate guest non-paging mode with TDP. To emulate this behavior, SMEP needs to be manually disabled when guest switches to non-paging mode. We met an issue that, SMP Linux guest with recent kernel (enable SMEP support, for example, 3.5.3) would crash with triple fault if setting unrestricted_guest=0. This is because KVM uses an identity mapping page table to emulate the non-paging mode, where the page table is set with USER flag. If SMEP is still enabled in this case, guest will meet unhandlable page fault and then crash.

2013-02-05Merge tag 'full-dynticks-cputime-for-mingo' of ↵Ingo Molnar
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/frederic/linux-dynticks into sched/core Pull full-dynticks (user-space execution is undisturbed and receives no timer IRQs) preparation changes that convert the cputime accounting code to be full-dynticks ready, from Frederic Weisbecker: "This implements the cputime accounting on full dynticks CPUs. Typical cputime stats infrastructure relies on the timer tick and its periodic polling on the CPU to account the amount of time spent by the CPUs and the tasks per high level domains such as userspace, kernelspace, guest, ... Now we are preparing to implement full dynticks capability on Linux for Real Time and HPC users who want full CPU isolation. This feature requires a cputime accounting that doesn't depend on the timer tick. To implement it, this new cputime infrastructure plugs into kernel/user/guest boundaries to take snapshots of cputime and flush these to the stats when needed. This performs pretty much like CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING except that context location and cputime snaphots are synchronized between write and read side such that the latter can safely retrieve the pending tickless cputime of a task and add it to its latest cputime snapshot to return the correct result to the user."

2013-01-31x86-32, mm: Rip out x86_32 NUMA remapping codeDave Hansen
This code was an optimization for 32-bit NUMA systems. It has probably been the cause of a number of subtle bugs over the years, although the conditions to excite them would have been hard to trigger. Essentially, we remap part of the kernel linear mapping area, and then sometimes part of that area gets freed back in to the bootmem allocator. If those pages get used by kernel data structures (say mem_map[] or a dentry), there's no big deal. But, if anyone ever tried to use the linear mapping for these pages _and_ cared about their physical address, bad things happen. For instance, say you passed __GFP_ZERO to the page allocator and then happened to get handed one of these pages, it zero the remapped page, but it would make a pte to the _old_ page. There are probably a hundred other ways that it could screw with things. We don't need to hang on to performance optimizations for these old boxes any more. All my 32-bit NUMA systems are long dead and buried, and I probably had access to more than most people. This code is causing real things to break today: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/1/9/376 I looked in to actually fixing this, but it requires surgery to way too much brittle code, as well as stuff like per_cpu_ptr_to_phys(). [ hpa: Cc: this for -stable, since it is a memory corruption issue. However, an alternative is to simply mark NUMA as depends BROKEN rather than EXPERIMENTAL in the X86_32 subclause... ] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20130131005616.1C79F411@kernel.stglabs.ibm.com Signed-off-by: H.
