Pull Xen updates from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
 "A couple of features and a ton of bug-fixes.  There is also some
  maintership changes.  Jeremy is enjoying the full-time work at the
  startup and as much as he would love to help - he can't find the time.
  I have a bunch of other things that I promised to work on - paravirt
  diet, get SWIOTLB working everywhere, etc, but haven't been able to
  find the time.

  As such both David Vrabel and Boris Ostrovsky have graciously
  volunteered to help with the maintership role.  They will keep the lid
  on regressions, bug-fixes, etc.  I will be in the background to help -
  but eventually there will be less of me doing the Xen GIT pulls and
  more of them.  Stefano is still doing the ARM/ARM64 and will continue
  on doing so.

  Features:
   - Xen Trusted Platform Module (TPM) frontend driver - with the
     backend in MiniOS.
   - Scalability improvements in event channel.
   - Two extra Xen co-maintainers (David, Boris) and one going away (Jeremy)

  Bug-fixes:
   - Make the 1:1 mapping work during early bootup on selective regions.
   - Add scratch page to balloon driver to deal with unexpected code

 "As a preparation for Andi Kleen's LTO patchset (link time

     by assembly code with asmlinkage()

   - Mark every function with parameters or variables that is used by
     assembly code as __visible.

Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar:
 "As a first remark I'd like to point out that the obsolete '-f'
  (--force) option, which has not done anything for several releases,
  has been removed from 'perf record' and related utilities.  Everyone
  please update muscle memory accordingly! :-)

  Main changes on the perf kernel side:

   - Performance optimizations:
        . for trace events, by Steve Rostedt.
        . for time values, by Peter Zijlstra

   - New hardware support:
        . for Intel Silvermont (22nm Atom) CPUs, by Zheng Yan
        . for Intel SNB-EP uncore PMUs, by Zheng Yan

   - Enhanced hardware support:
        . for Intel uncore PMUs: add filter support for QPI boxes, by Zheng Yan

   - Core perf events code enhancements and fixes:
        . for full-nohz feature handling, by Frederic Weisbecker
        . for group events, by Jiri Olsa
        . for call chains, by Frederic Weisbecker
        . for event stream parsing, by Adrian Hunter

   - New ABI details:
        . Add attr->mmap2 attribute, by Stephane Eranian
        . Add PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID ioctl to return event ID, by Jiri Olsa
        . Export u64 time_zero on the mmap header page to allow TSC
          calculation, by Adrian Hunter
        . Add dummy software event, by Adrian Hunter.
        . Add a new PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER to make samples always
          parseable, by Adrian Hunter.
        . Make Power7 events available via sysfs, by Runzhen Wang.

   - Code cleanups and refactorings:
        . for nohz-full, by Frederic Weisbecker
        . for group events, by Jiri Olsa

   - Documentation updates:
        . for perf_event_type, by Peter Zijlstra

  Main changes on the perf tooling side (some of these tooling changes
  utilize the above kernel side changes):

   - Lots of 'perf trace' enhancements:

        . Make 'perf trace' command line arguments consistent with
          'perf record', by David Ahern.

        . Allow specifying syscalls a la strace, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

        . Add --verbose and -o/--output options, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

        . Support ! in -e expressions, to filter a list of syscalls,
          by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

        . Arg formatting improvements to allow masking arguments in
          syscalls such as futex and open, where the some arguments are
          ignored and thus should not be printed depending on other args,
          by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

        . Beautify futex open, openat, open_by_handle_at, lseek and futex
          syscalls, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

        . Add option to analyze events in a file versus live, so that
          one can do:

           [root@zoo ~]# perf record -a -e raw_syscalls:* sleep 1
           [ perf record: Woken up 0 times to write data ]
           [ perf record: Captured and wrote 25.150 MB perf.data (~1098836 samples) ]
           [root@zoo ~]# perf trace -i perf.data -e futex --duration 1
              17.799 ( 1.020 ms): 7127 futex(uaddr: 0x7fff3f6c6674, op: 393, val: 1, utime: 0x7fff3f6c6470, ua

           [root@zoo ~]#

          By David Ahern.

        . Honor target pid / tid options when analyzing a file, by David Ahern.

        . Introduce better formatting of syscall arguments, including so
          far beautifiers for mmap, madvise, syscall return values,
          by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.

        . Handle HUGEPAGE defines in the mmap beautifier, by David Ahern.

   - 'perf report/top' enhancements:

        . Do annotation using /proc/kcore and /proc/kallsyms when
          available, removing the forced need for a vmlinux file kernel
          assembly annotation. This also improves this use case because
          vmlinux has just the initial kernel image, not what is actually
          in use after various code patchings by things like alternatives.
          By Adrian Hunter.

        . Add --ignore-callees=<regex> option to collapse undesired parts
          of call graphs, by Greg Price.

        . Simplify symbol filtering by doing it at machine class level,
          by Adrian Hunter.

        . Add support for callchains in the gtk UI, by Namhyung Kim.

        . Add --objdump option to 'perf top', by Sukadev Bhattiprolu.

   - 'perf kvm' enhancements:

        . Add option to print only events that exceed a specified time
          duration, by David Ahern.

        . Improve stack trace printing, by David Ahern.

        . Update documentation of the live command, by David Ahern

        . Add perf kvm stat live mode that combines aspects of 'perf kvm
          stat' record and report, by David Ahern.

        . Add option to analyze specific VM in perf kvm stat report, by

fc6d0b0376 Merge branch 'lockref' (locked reference counts)
Merge lockref infrastructure code by me and Waiman Long.

I already merged some of the preparatory patches that didn't actually do
any semantic changes earlier, but this merges the actual _reason_ for
those preparatory patches.

The "lockref" structure is a combination "spinlock and reference count"
that allows optimized reference count accesses.  In particular, it
guarantees that the reference count will be updated AS IF the spinlock
was held, but using atomic accesses that cover both the reference count
and the spinlock words, we can often do the update without actually
having to take the lock.

This allows us to avoid the nastiest cases of spinlock contention on
large machines under heavy pathname lookup loads.  When updating the
dentry reference counts on a large system, we'll still end up with the
cache line bouncing around, but that's much less noticeable than
actually having to spin waiting for the lock.

* lockref:
  lockref: implement lockless reference count updates using cmpxchg()
  lockref: uninline lockref helper functions
  vfs: reimplement d_rcu_to_refcount() using lockref_get_or_lock()
  vfs: use lockref_get_not_zero() for optimistic lockless dget_parent()
  lockref: add 'lockref_get_or_lock() helper
2013-09-03 08:08:21 -07:00
Linus Torvalds
bc08b449ee lockref: implement lockless reference count updates using cmpxchg()
Instead of taking the spinlock, the lockless versions atomically check
that the lock is not taken, and do the reference count update using a
cmpxchg() loop.  This is semantically identical to doing the reference
count update protected by the lock, but avoids the "wait for lock"
contention that you get when accesses to the reference count are
contended.

Note that a "lockref" is absolutely _not_ equivalent to an atomic_t.
Even when the lockref reference counts are updated atomically with
cmpxchg, the fact that they also verify the state of the spinlock means
that the lockless updates can never happen while somebody else holds the
spinlock.

So while "lockref_put_or_lock()" looks a lot like just another name for
"atomic_dec_and_lock()", and both optimize to lockless updates, they are
fundamentally different: the decrement done by atomic_dec_and_lock() is
truly independent of any lock (as long as it doesn't decrement to zero),
so a locked region can still see the count change.

The lockref structure, in contrast, really is a *locked* reference
count.  If you hold the spinlock, the reference count will be stable and
you can modify the reference count without using atomics, because even
the lockless updates will see and respect the state of the lock.

In order to enable the cmpxchg lockless code, the architecture needs to
do three things:

 (1) Make sure that the "arch_spinlock_t" and an "unsigned int" can fit
     in an aligned u64, and have a "cmpxchg()" implementation that works
     on such a u64 data type.

 (2) define a helper function to test for a spinlock being unlocked
     ("arch_spin_value_unlocked()")

 (3) select the "ARCH_USE_CMPXCHG_LOCKREF" config variable in its
     Kconfig file.

This enables it for x86-64 (but not 32-bit, we'd need to make sure
cmpxchg() turns into the proper cmpxchg8b in order to enable it for
32-bit mode).

53ad044720 perf/x86: use INTEL_UEVENT_EXTRA_REG to define MSR_OFFCORE_RSP_X
Silvermont (22nm Atom) has two offcore response configuration MSRs,
unlike other Intel CPU, its event code for MSR_OFFCORE_RSP_1 is 0x02b7.

To avoid complicating intel_fixup_er(), use INTEL_UEVENT_EXTRA_REG to
define MSR_OFFCORE_RSP_X. So intel_fixup_er() can find the event code
for OFFCORE_RSP_N by x86_pmu.extra_regs[N].event.

bd1c149aa9 Introduce [compat_]save_altstack_ex() to unbreak x86 SMAP
For performance reasons, when SMAP is in use, SMAP is left open for an
entire put_user_try { ... } put_user_catch(); block, however, calling
__put_user() in the middle of that block will close SMAP as the
STAC..CLAC constructs intentionally do not nest.

Furthermore, using __put_user() rather than put_user_ex() here is bad
for performance.

Thus, introduce new [compat_]save_altstack_ex() helpers that replace
__[compat_]save_altstack() for x86, being currently the only
architecture which supports put_user_try { ... } put_user_catch().

f69fa9a91f x86, doc: Update uaccess.h comment to reflect clang changes
Update comment in uaccess.h to reflect the changes for clang support:
gcc only cares about the base register (most architectures don't
encode the size of the operation in the operands like x86 does, and so
it is treated effectively like a register number), whereas clang tries
to enforce the size -- but not for register pairs.

bdfc017eea x86, asm: Fix a compilation issue with clang
Clang does not support the "shortcut" we're taking here for gcc (see below).
The patch uses the macro _ASM_DX to do the job.

From arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess.h:
/*
 * Careful: we have to cast the result to the type of the pointer
 * for sign reasons.
 *
 * The use of %edx as the register specifier is a bit of a
 * simplification, as gcc only cares about it as the starting point
 * and not size: for a 64-bit value it will use %ecx:%edx on 32 bits
 * (%ecx being the next register in gcc's x86 register sequence), and
 * %rdx on 64 bits.
 */

[ hpa: I consider this a compatibility bug in clang as this reflects a
  bit of a misunderstanding about how register strings are used by
  gcc, but the workaround is straightforward and there is no
  particular reason to not do it. ]

The __ASM_* macros (e.g. __ASM_DX) are used to return the proper
register name (e.g. edx for 32bit / rdx for 64bit). We want to use
this also in arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess.h / get_user() .  For this
to work, we need a raw form as both gcc and clang choke on the
whitespace in a register asm() statement, and the __ASM_FORM macro
surrounds the argument with blanks.  A new macro, __ASM_FORM_RAW was
added and we change __ASM_REG to use the new RAW form.

25aa295797 x86/ioapic: Check attr against the previous setting when programmed more than once
When programming ioapic pinX more than once, current code
does not check whether the later attr (trigger & polarity) is the
same as the former or not.

This causes broken semantics which can be observed in a qemu q35
machine, where ioapic's ioredtbl[x] can never be set as low-active,
even if the hpet driver registered it.

And hpet driver may share a high-level active IRQ line with other
devices. So in qemu, when hpet-dev asserts low-level as kernel
expects, the kernel has no response.

With this patch, we can observe an ioredtbl[x] set as low-active
for hpet.

Fix it by reporting -EBUSY to the caller, when attr is different.

5ea80f76a5 Revert "x86 get_unmapped_area(): use proper mmap base for bottom-up direction"
This reverts commit df54d6fa54.

The commit isn't necessarily wrong, but because it recalculates the
random mmap_base every time, it seems to confuse user memory allocators
that expect contiguous mmap allocations even when the mmap address isn't
specified.

In particular, the MATLAB Java runtime seems to be unhappy. See

  https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60774

So we'll want to apply the random offset only once, and Radu has a patch
for that.  Revert this older commit in order to apply the other one.

a58674ff83 PCI: Simplify pcie_bus_configure_settings() interface
Based on a patch by Jon Mason (see URL below).

All users of pcie_bus_configure_settings() pass arguments of the form
"bus, bus->self->pcie_mpss".  The "mpss" argument is redundant since we
can easily look it up internally.  In addition, all callers check
"bus->self" for NULL, which we can also do internally.

This patch simplifies the interface and the callers.  No functional change.

happens.
NORET_TYPE void panic(const char * fmt, ...){

When Xen becomes aware of this, it will call xen_reboot(SHUTDOWN_crash) to

xen_panic_handler_init() is defined to register on panic_notifier_list but
we only call it in xen_arch_setup which only be called by PV, this patch is
necessary for PVHVM.

Without this patch, setting 'on_crash=coredump-restart' in PVHVM guest config

ee0726407f xen/m2p: use GNTTABOP_unmap_and_replace to reinstate the original mapping
GNTTABOP_unmap_grant_ref unmaps a grant and replaces it with a 0
mapping instead of reinstating the original mapping.
Doing so separately would be racy.

To unmap a grant and reinstate the original mapping atomically we use
GNTTABOP_unmap_and_replace.
GNTTABOP_unmap_and_replace doesn't work with GNTMAP_contains_pte, so
don't use it for kmaps.  GNTTABOP_unmap_and_replace zeroes the mapping
passed in new_addr so we have to reinstate it, however that is a
per-cpu mapping only used for balloon scratch pages, so we can be sure that
it's not going to be accessed while the mapping is not valid.

fc78d343fa xen/smp: initialize IPI vectors before marking CPU online
An older PVHVM guest (v3.0 based) crashed during vCPU hot-plug with:

	kernel BUG at drivers/xen/events.c:1328!

RCU has detected that a CPU has not entered a quiescent state within the
grace period.  It needs to send the CPU a reschedule IPI if it is not
offline.  rcu_implicit_offline_qs() does this check:

	/*
	 * If the CPU is offline, it is in a quiescent state.  We can
	 * trust its state not to change because interrupts are disabled.
	 */
	if (cpu_is_offline(rdp->cpu)) {
		rdp->offline_fqs++;
		return 1;
	}

	Else the CPU is online.  Send it a reschedule IPI.

The CPU is in the middle of being hot-plugged and has been marked online
(!cpu_is_offline()).  See start_secondary():

	set_cpu_online(smp_processor_id(), true);
	...
	per_cpu(cpu_state, smp_processor_id()) = CPU_ONLINE;

start_secondary() then waits for the CPU bringing up the hot-plugged CPU to
mark it as active:

	/*
	 * Wait until the cpu which brought this one up marked it
	 * online before enabling interrupts. If we don't do that then
	 * we can end up waking up the softirq thread before this cpu
	 * reached the active state, which makes the scheduler unhappy
	 * and schedule the softirq thread on the wrong cpu. This is
	 * only observable with forced threaded interrupts, but in
	 * theory it could also happen w/o them. It's just way harder
	 * to achieve.
	 */
	while (!cpumask_test_cpu(smp_processor_id(), cpu_active_mask))
		cpu_relax();

	/* enable local interrupts */
	local_irq_enable();

The CPU being hot-plugged will be marked active after it has been fully
initialized by the CPU managing the hot-plug.  In the Xen PVHVM case
xen_smp_intr_init() is called to set up the hot-plugged vCPU's
XEN_RESCHEDULE_VECTOR.

The hot-plugging CPU is marked online, not marked active and does not have
its IPI vectors set up.  rcu_implicit_offline_qs() sees the hot-plugging
cpu is !cpu_is_offline() and tries to send it a reschedule IPI:
This will lead to:

	kernel BUG at drivers/xen/events.c:1328!

	xen_send_IPI_one()
	xen_smp_send_reschedule()
	rcu_implicit_offline_qs()
	rcu_implicit_dynticks_qs()
	force_qs_rnp()
	force_quiescent_state()
	__rcu_process_callbacks()
	rcu_process_callbacks()
	__do_softirq()
	call_softirq()
	do_softirq()
	irq_exit()
	xen_evtchn_do_upcall()

because xen_send_IPI_one() will attempt to use an uninitialized IRQ for
the XEN_RESCHEDULE_VECTOR.

There is at least one other place that has caused the same crash:

clocksource_watchdog() uses cpu_online_mask to pick the next CPU to handle
a watchdog timer:

	/*
	 * Cycle through CPUs to check if the CPUs stay synchronized
	 * to each other.
	 */
	next_cpu = cpumask_next(raw_smp_processor_id(), cpu_online_mask);
	if (next_cpu >= nr_cpu_ids)
		next_cpu = cpumask_first(cpu_online_mask);
	watchdog_timer.expires += WATCHDOG_INTERVAL;
	add_timer_on(&watchdog_timer, next_cpu);

This resulted in an attempt to send an IPI to a hot-plugging CPU that
had not initialized its reschedule vector. One option would be to make
the RCU code check to not check for CPU offline but for CPU active.
As becoming active is done after a CPU is online (in older kernels).

But Srivatsa pointed out that "the cpu_active vs cpu_online ordering has been
completely reworked - in the online path, cpu_active is set *before* cpu_online,
and also, in the cpu offline path, the cpu_active bit is reset in the CPU_DYING
notification instead of CPU_DOWN_PREPARE." Drilling in this the bring-up
path: "[brought up CPU].. send out a CPU_STARTING notification, and in response
to that, the scheduler sets the CPU in the cpu_active_mask. Again, this mask
is better left to the scheduler alone, since it has the intelligence to use it
judiciously."

The conclusion was that:
"
1. At the IPI sender side:

   It is incorrect to send an IPI to an offline CPU (cpu not present in
   the cpu_online_mask). There are numerous places where we check this
   and warn/complain.

2. At the IPI receiver side:

   It is incorrect to let the world know of our presence (by setting
   ourselves in global bitmasks) until our initialization steps are complete
   to such an extent that we can handle the consequences (such as
   receiving interrupts without crashing the sender etc.)
" (from Srivatsa)

As the native code enables the interrupts at some point we need to be
able to service them. In other words a CPU must have valid IPI vectors
if it has been marked online.

It doesn't need to handle the IPI (interrupts may be disabled) but needs
to have valid IPI vectors because another CPU may find it in cpu_online_mask
and attempt to send it an IPI.

This patch will change the order of the Xen vCPU bring-up functions so that
Xen vectors have been set up before start_secondary() is called.
It also will not continue to bring up a Xen vCPU if xen_smp_intr_init() fails
to initialize it.

e201bfcc5c x86/xen: during early setup, only 1:1 map the ISA region
During early setup, when the reserved regions and MMIO holes are being
setup as 1:1 in the p2m, clear any mappings instead of making them 1:1
(execept for the ISA region which is expected to be mapped).

This fixes a regression introduced in 3.5 by 83d51ab473 (xen/setup:
update VA mapping when releasing memory during setup) which caused
hosts with tboot to fail to boot.

tboot marks a region in the e820 map as unusable and the dom0 kernel
would attempt to map this region and Xen does not permit unusable
regions to be mapped by guests.

fb58e30091 x86/xen: disable premption when enabling local irqs
If CONFIG_PREEMPT is enabled then xen_enable_irq() (and
xen_restore_fl()) could be preempted and rescheduled on a different
VCPU in between the clear of the mask and the check for pending
events.  This may result in events being lost as the upcall will check
for pending events on the wrong VCPU.

Fix this by disabling preemption around the unmask and check for
events.

3bc38cbceb x86/xen: do not identity map UNUSABLE regions in the machine E820
If there are UNUSABLE regions in the machine memory map, dom0 will
attempt to map them 1:1 which is not permitted by Xen and the kernel
will crash.

There isn't anything interesting in the UNUSABLE region that the dom0
kernel needs access to so we can avoid making the 1:1 mapping and
treat it as RAM.

We only do this for dom0, as that is where tboot case shows up.
A PV domU could have an UNUSABLE region in its pseudo-physical map
and would need to be handled in another patch.

This fixes a boot failure on hosts with tboot.

tboot marks a region in the e820 map as unusable and the dom0 kernel
would attempt to map this region and Xen does not permit unusable
regions to be mapped by guests.
