2011-09-15asm alternatives: remove incorrect alignment notesLinus Torvalds
On x86-64, they were just wasteful: with the explicitly added (now unnecessary) padding, the size of the alternatives structure was 16 bytes, and an alignment of 8 bytes didn't hurt much. However, it was still silly, since the natural size and alignment for the structure is actually just 12 bytes, 4-byte aligned since commit 59e97e4d6fbc ("x86: Make alternative instruction pointers relative"). So removing the padding, and removing the extra alignment is just a good idea. On x86-32, the alignment of 4 bytes was correct, but was incorrectly hardcoded as 8 bytes in <asm/alternative-asm.h>. That header file had used to be an x86-64 only header file, but various unification efforts have made it be used for x86-32 too (ie the unification of rwlock and rwsem). That in turn caused x86-32 boot failures, because the extra alignment would result in random zero-filled words in the altinstructions section, causing oopses early at boot when doing alternative instruction replacement. So just remove all the alignment noise entirely. It's wrong, and it's unnecessary. The section itself is already properly aligned by the linker scripts, and all additions to the section had better be of the proper 12-byte format, keeping it aligned. So if the align directive were to ever make a difference, that would be an indication of a serious bug to begin with.

2011-09-13xen/e820: if there is no dom0_mem=, don't tweak extra_pages.David Vrabel
The patch "xen: use maximum reservation to limit amount of usable RAM" (d312ae878b6aed3912e1acaaf5d0b2a9d08a4f11) breaks machines that do not use 'dom0_mem=' argument with: reserve RAM buffer: 000000133f2e2000 - 000000133fffffff (XEN) mm.c:4976:d0 Global bit is set to kernel page fffff8117e (XEN) domain_crash_sync called from entry.S (XEN) Domain 0 (vcpu#0) crashed on cpu#0: ... The reason being that the last E820 entry is created using the 'extra_pages' (which is based on how many pages have been freed). The mentioned git commit sets the initial value of 'extra_pages' using a hypercall which returns the number of pages (if dom0_mem has been used) or -1 otherwise. If the later we return with MAX_DOMAIN_PAGES as basis for calculation: return min(max_pages, MAX_DOMAIN_PAGES); and use it: extra_limit = xen_get_max_pages(); if (extra_limit >= max_pfn) extra_pages = extra_limit - max_pfn; else extra_pages = 0; which means we end up with extra_pages = 128GB in PFNs (33554432) - 8GB in PFNs (2097152, on this specific box, can be larger or smaller), and then we add that value to the E820 making it: Xen: 00000000ff000000 - 0000000100000000 (reserved) Xen: 0000000100000000 - 000000133f2e2000 (usable) which is clearly wrong. It should look as so: Xen: 00000000ff000000 - 0000000100000000 (reserved) Xen: 0000000100000000 - 000000027fbda000 (usable) Naturally this problem does not present itself if dom0_mem=max:X is used.

2011-09-08xen: disable PV spinlocks on HVMStefano Stabellini
PV spinlocks cannot possibly work with the current code because they are enabled after pvops patching has already been done, and because PV spinlocks use a different data structure than native spinlocks so we cannot switch between them dynamically. A spinlock that has been taken once by the native code (__ticket_spin_lock) cannot be taken by __xen_spin_lock even after it has been released.

2011-09-01xen: use maximum reservation to limit amount of usable RAMDavid Vrabel
Use the domain's maximum reservation to limit the amount of extra RAM for the memory balloon. This reduces the size of the pages tables and the amount of reserved low memory (which defaults to about 1/32 of the total RAM). On a system with 8 GiB of RAM with the domain limited to 1 GiB the kernel reports: Before: Memory: 627792k/4472000k available After: Memory: 549740k/11132224k available A increase of about 76 MiB (~1.5% of the unused 7 GiB). The reserved low memory is also reduced from 253 MiB to 32 MiB. The total additional usable RAM is 329 MiB. For dom0, this requires at patch to Xen ('x86: use 'dom0_mem' to limit the number of pages for dom0') (c/s 23790) CC: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>

2011-08-29x86, ticketlock: Convert spin loop to CJeremy Fitzhardinge
The inner loop of __ticket_spin_lock isn't doing anything very special, so reimplement it in C. For the 8 bit ticket lock variant, we use a register union to get direct access to the lower and upper bytes in the tickets, but unfortunately gcc won't generate a direct comparison between the two halves of the register, so the generated asm isn't quite as pretty as the hand-coded version. However benchmarking shows that this is actually a small improvement in runtime performance on some benchmarks, and never a slowdown. We also need to make sure there's a barrier at the end of the lock loop to make sure that the compiler doesn't move any instructions from within the locked region into the region where we don't yet own the lock.

When we enter a 32-bit system call via SYSENTER or SYSCALL, we shuffle the arguments to match the int $0x80 calling convention. This was probably a design mistake, but it's what it is now. This causes errors if the system call as to be restarted. For SYSENTER, we have to invoke the instruction from the vdso as the return address is hardcoded. Accordingly, we can simply replace the jump in the vdso with an int $0x80 instruction and use the slower entry point for a post-restart.

2011-08-22xen: Do not enable PV IPIs when vector callback not presentStefano Stabellini
Fix regression for HVM case on older (<4.1.1) hypervisors caused by commit 99bbb3a84a99cd04ab16b998b20f01a72cfa9f4f Author: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@eu.citrix.com> Date: Thu Dec 2 17:55:10 2010 +0000 xen: PV on HVM: support PV spinlocks and IPIs This change replaced the SMP operations with event based handlers without taking into account that this only works when the hypervisor supports callback vectors. This causes unexplainable hangs early on boot for HVM guests with more than one CPU.

2011-08-17xen/x86: replace order-based range checking of M2P table by linear oneJan Beulich
The order-based approach is not only less efficient (requiring a shift and a compare, typical generated code looking like this mov eax, [machine_to_phys_order] mov ecx, eax shr ebx, cl test ebx, ebx jnz ... whereas a direct check requires just a compare, like in cmp ebx, [machine_to_phys_nr] jae ... ), but also slightly dangerous in the 32-on-64 case - the element address calculation can wrap if the next power of two boundary is sufficiently far away from the actual upper limit of the table, and hence can result in user space addresses being accessed (with it being unknown what may actually be mapped there). Additionally, the elimination of the mistaken use of fls() here (should have been __fls()) fixes a latent issue on x86-64 that would trigger if the code was run on a system with memory extending beyond the 44-bit boundary.

2011-08-16KVM: uses TASKSTATS, depends on NETRandy Dunlap
CONFIG_TASKSTATS just had a change to use netlink, including a change to "depends on NET". Since "select" does not follow dependencies, KVM also needs to depend on NET to prevent build errors when CONFIG_NET is not enabled.

2011-08-10x86-64: Rework vsyscall emulation and add vsyscall= parameterAndy Lutomirski
There are three choices: vsyscall=native: Vsyscalls are native code that issues the corresponding syscalls. vsyscall=emulate (default): Vsyscalls are emulated by instruction fault traps, tested in the bad_area path. The actual contents of the vsyscall page is the same as the vsyscall=native case except that it's marked NX. This way programs that make assumptions about what the code in the page does will not be confused when they read that code. vsyscall=none: Trying to execute a vsyscall will segfault.

2011-08-10x86-64: Wire up getcpu syscallAndy Lutomirski
getcpu is available as a vdso entry and an emulated vsyscall. Programs that for some reason don't want to use the vdso should still be able to call getcpu without relying on the slow emulated vsyscall. It costs almost nothing to expose it as a real syscall. We also need this for the following patch in vsyscall=native mode.
