2015-04-15KVM: MMU: fix comment in kvm_mmu_zap_collapsible_spteXiao Guangrong
Soft mmu uses direct shadow page to fill guest large mapping with small pages if huge mapping is disallowed on host. So zapping direct shadow page works well both for soft mmu and hard mmu, it's just less widely applicable. Fix the comment to reflect this.

2015-04-08kvm: mmu: lazy collapse small sptes into large sptesWanpeng Li
Dirty logging tracks sptes in 4k granularity, meaning that large sptes have to be split. If live migration is successful, the guest in the source machine will be destroyed and large sptes will be created in the destination. However, the guest continues to run in the source machine (for example if live migration fails), small sptes will remain around and cause bad performance. This patch introduce lazy collapsing of small sptes into large sptes. The rmap will be scanned in ioctl context when dirty logging is stopped, dropping those sptes which can be collapsed into a single large-page spte. Later page faults will create the large-page sptes.

This patch adds new kvm_x86_ops dirty logging hooks to enable/disable dirty logging for particular memory slot, and to flush potentially logged dirty GPAs before reporting slot->dirty_bitmap to userspace. kvm x86 common code calls these hooks when they are available so PML logic can be hidden to VMX specific.

2015-01-29KVM: MMU: Explicitly set D-bit for writable spte.Kai Huang
This patch avoids unnecessary dirty GPA logging to PML buffer in EPT violation path by setting D-bit manually prior to the occurrence of the write from guest. We only set D-bit manually in set_spte, and leave fast_page_fault path unchanged, as fast_page_fault is very unlikely to happen in case of PML. For the hva <-> pa change case, the spte is updated to either read-only (host pte is read-only) or be dropped (host pte is writeable), and both cases will be handled by above changes, therefore no change is necessary.

This patch adds new mmu layer functions to clear/set D-bit for memory slot, and to write protect superpages for memory slot. In case of PML, CPU logs the dirty GPA automatically to PML buffer when CPU updates D-bit from 0 to 1, therefore we don't have to write protect 4K pages, instead, we only need to clear D-bit in order to log that GPA. For superpages, we still write protect it and let page fault code to handle dirty page logging, as we still need to split superpage to 4K pages in PML. As PML is always enabled during guest's lifetime, to eliminate unnecessary PML GPA logging, we set D-bit manually for the slot with dirty logging disabled.

This reverts commit 85c8555ff0 ("KVM: check for !is_zero_pfn() in kvm_is_mmio_pfn()") and renames the function to kvm_is_reserved_pfn. The problem being addressed by the patch above was that some ARM code based the memory mapping attributes of a pfn on the return value of kvm_is_mmio_pfn(), whose name indeed suggests that such pfns should be mapped as device memory. However, kvm_is_mmio_pfn() doesn't do quite what it says on the tin, and the existing non-ARM users were already using it in a way which suggests that its name should probably have been 'kvm_is_reserved_pfn' from the beginning, e.g., whether or not to call get_page/put_page on it etc. This means that returning false for the zero page is a mistake and the patch above should be reverted.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu Pull percpu updates from Tejun Heo: "A lot of activities on percpu front. Notable changes are... - percpu allocator now can take @gfp. If @gfp doesn't contain GFP_KERNEL, it tries to allocate from what's already available to the allocator and a work item tries to keep the reserve around certain level so that these atomic allocations usually succeed. This will replace the ad-hoc percpu memory pool used by blk-throttle and also be used by the planned blkcg support for writeback IOs. Please note that I noticed a bug in how @gfp is interpreted while preparing this pull request and applied the fix 6ae833c7fe0c ("percpu: fix how @gfp is interpreted by the percpu allocator") just now. - percpu_ref now uses longs for percpu and global counters instead of ints. It leads to more sparse packing of the percpu counters on 64bit machines but the overhead should be negligible and this allows using percpu_ref for refcnting pages and in-memory objects directly. - The switching between percpu and single counter modes of a percpu_ref is made independent of putting the base ref and a percpu_ref can now optionally be initialized in single or killed mode. This allows avoiding percpu shutdown latency for cases where the refcounted objects may be synchronously created and destroyed in rapid succession with only a fraction of them reaching fully operational status (SCSI probing does this when combined with blk-mq support). It's also planned to be used to implement forced single mode to detect underflow more timely for debugging.

2014-09-24kvm: Fix page ageing bugsAndres Lagar-Cavilla
1. We were calling clear_flush_young_notify in unmap_one, but we are within an mmu notifier invalidate range scope. The spte exists no more (due to range_start) and the accessed bit info has already been propagated (due to kvm_pfn_set_accessed). Simply call clear_flush_young. 2. We clear_flush_young on a primary MMU PMD, but this may be mapped as a collection of PTEs by the secondary MMU (e.g. during log-dirty). This required expanding the interface of the clear_flush_young mmu notifier, so a lot of code has been trivially touched. 3. In the absence of shadow_accessed_mask (e.g. EPT A bit), we emulate the access bit by blowing the spte. This requires proper synchronizing with MMU notifier consumers, like every other removal of spte's does.

2014-09-03kvm: x86: fix stale mmio cache bugDavid Matlack
The following events can lead to an incorrect KVM_EXIT_MMIO bubbling up to userspace: (1) Guest accesses gpa X without a memory slot. The gfn is cached in struct kvm_vcpu_arch (mmio_gfn). On Intel EPT-enabled hosts, KVM sets the SPTE write-execute-noread so that future accesses cause EPT_MISCONFIGs. (2) Host userspace creates a memory slot via KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION covering the page just accessed. (3) Guest attempts to read or write to gpa X again. On Intel, this generates an EPT_MISCONFIG. The memory slot generation number that was incremented in (2) would normally take care of this but we fast path mmio faults through quickly_check_mmio_pf(), which only checks the per-vcpu mmio cache. Since we hit the cache, KVM passes a KVM_EXIT_MMIO up to userspace. This patch fixes the issue by using the memslot generation number to validate the mmio cache.

2014-09-03kvm: fix potentially corrupt mmio cacheDavid Matlack
vcpu exits and memslot mutations can run concurrently as long as the vcpu does not aquire the slots mutex. Thus it is theoretically possible for memslots to change underneath a vcpu that is handling an exit. If we increment the memslot generation number again after synchronize_srcu_expedited(), vcpus can safely cache memslot generation without maintaining a single rcu_dereference through an entire vm exit. And much of the x86/kvm code does not maintain a single rcu_dereference of the current memslots during each exit. We can prevent the following case: vcpu (CPU 0) | thread (CPU 1) --------------------------------------------+-------------------------- 1 vm exit | 2 srcu_read_unlock(&kvm->srcu) | 3 decide to cache something based on | old memslots | 4 | change memslots | (increments generation) 5 | synchronize_srcu(&kvm->srcu); 6 retrieve generation # from new memslots | 7 tag cache with new memslot generation | 8 srcu_read_unlock(&kvm->srcu) | ... | <action based on cache occurs even | though the caching decision was based | on the old memslots> | ... | <action *continues* to occur until next | memslot generation change, which may | be never> | | By incrementing the generation after synchronizing with kvm->srcu readers, we ensure that the generation retrieved in (6) will become invalid soon after (8). Keeping the existing increment is not strictly necessary, but we do keep it and just move it for consistency from update_memslots to install_new_memslots. It invalidates old cached MMIOs immediately, instead of having to wait for the end of synchronize_srcu_expedited, which makes the code more clearly correct in case CPU 1 is preempted right after synchronize_srcu() returns. To avoid halving the generation space in SPTEs, always presume that the low bit of the generation is zero when reconstructing a generation number out of an SPTE. This effectively disables MMIO caching in SPTEs during the call to synchronize_srcu_expedited. Using the low bit this way is somewhat like a seqcount---where the protected thing is a cache, and instead of retrying we can simply punt if we observe the low bit to be 1.

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 un-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.

2014-02-26KVM: MMU: drop read-only large sptes when creating lower level sptesMarcelo Tosatti
Read-only large sptes can be created due to read-only faults as follows: - QEMU pagetable entry that maps guest memory is read-only due to COW. - Guest read faults such memory, COW is not broken, because it is a read-only fault. - Enable dirty logging, large spte not nuked because it is read-only. - Write-fault on such memory causes guest to loop endlessly (which must go down to level 1 because dirty logging is enabled). Fix by dropping large spte when necessary. Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
2014-01-30KVM: async_pf: Provide additional direct page notificationDominik Dingel
By setting a Kconfig option, the architecture can control when guest notifications will be presented by the apf backend. There is the default batch mechanism, working as before, where the vcpu thread should pull in this information. Opposite to this, there is now the direct mechanism, that will push the information to the guest. This way s390 can use an already existing architecture interface. Still the vcpu thread should call check_completion to cleanup leftovers. Signed-off-by: Dominik Dingel <dingel@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com>

2013-12-20KVM: MMU: handle invalid root_hpa at __direct_mapMarcelo Tosatti
It is possible for __direct_map to be called on invalid root_hpa (-1), two examples: 1) try_async_pf -> can_do_async_pf -> vmx_interrupt_allowed -> nested_vmx_vmexit 2) vmx_handle_exit -> vmx_interrupt_allowed -> nested_vmx_vmexit Then to load_vmcs12_host_state and kvm_mmu_reset_context. Check for this possibility, let fault exception be regenerated.

kvm_mmu initialization is mostly filling in function pointers, there is no way for it to fail. Clean up unused return values. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com>
2013-10-03KVM: mmu: unify destroy_kvm_mmu with kvm_mmu_unloadPaolo Bonzini
They do the same thing, and destroy_kvm_mmu can be confused with kvm_mmu_destroy. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com>
2013-10-03KVM: mmu: remove uninteresting MMU "new_cr3" callbacksPaolo Bonzini
The new_cr3 MMU callback has been a wrapper for mmu_free_roots since commit e676505 (KVM: MMU: Force cr3 reload with two dimensional paging on mov cr3 emulation, 2012-07-08). The commit message mentioned that "mmu_free_roots() is somewhat of an overkill, but fixing that is more complicated and will be done after this minimal fix". One year has passed, and no one really felt the need to do a different fix. Wrap the call with a kvm_mmu_new_cr3 function for clarity, but remove the callback.

2013-10-03KVM: mmu: remove uninteresting MMU "free" callbacksPaolo Bonzini
The free MMU callback has been a wrapper for mmu_free_roots since mmu_free_roots itself was introduced (commit 17ac10a, [PATCH] KVM: MU: Special treatment for shadow pae root pages, 2007-01-05), and has always been the same for all MMU cases. Remove the indirection as it is useless. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com>
