xenbus_client.c contains some functions specific for pv guests.
Enclose them with #ifdef CONFIG_XEN_PV to avoid compiling them when
they are not needed (e.g. on ARM).

GFP_TEMPORARY was introduced by commit e12ba74d8ff3 ("Group short-lived
and reclaimable kernel allocations") along with __GFP_RECLAIMABLE. It's
primary motivation was to allow users to tell that an allocation is
short lived and so the allocator can try to place such allocations close
together and prevent long term fragmentation. As much as this sounds
like a reasonable semantic it becomes much less clear when to use the
highlevel GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flag. How long is temporary? Can the
context holding that memory sleep? Can it take locks? It seems there is
no good answer for those questions.
The current implementation of GFP_TEMPORARY is basically GFP_KERNEL |
__GFP_RECLAIMABLE which in itself is tricky because basically none of
the existing caller provide a way to reclaim the allocated memory. So
this is rather misleading and hard to evaluate for any benefits.
I have checked some random users and none of them has added the flag
with a specific justification. I suspect most of them just copied from
other existing users and others just thought it might be a good idea to
use without any measuring. This suggests that GFP_TEMPORARY just
motivates for cargo cult usage without any reasoning.
I believe that our gfp flags are quite complex already and especially
those with highlevel semantic should be clearly defined to prevent from
confusion and abuse. Therefore I propose dropping GFP_TEMPORARY and
replace all existing users to simply use GFP_KERNEL. Please note that
SLAB users with shrinkers will still get __GFP_RECLAIMABLE heuristic and
so they will be placed properly for memory fragmentation prevention.
I can see reasons we might want some gfp flag to reflect shorterm
allocations but I propose starting from a clear semantic definition and
only then add users with proper justification.
This was been brought up before LSF this year by Matthew [1] and it
turned out that GFP_TEMPORARY really doesn't have a clear semantic. It
seems to be a heuristic without any measured advantage for most (if not
all) its current users. The follow up discussion has revealed that
opinions on what might be temporary allocation differ a lot between
developers. So rather than trying to tweak existing users into a
semantic which they haven't expected I propose to simply remove the flag
and start from scratch if we really need a semantic for short term
allocations.

Pull driver core update from Greg KH:
"Here is the "big" driver core update for 4.14-rc1.
It's really not all that big, the largest thing here being some
firmware tests to help ensure that that crazy api is working properly.
There's also a new uevent for when a driver is bound or unbound from a
device, fixing a hole in the driver model that's been there since the
very beginning. Many thanks to Dmitry for being persistent and
pointing out how wrong I was about this all along :)
Patches for the new uevents are already in the systemd tree, if people
want to play around with them.
Otherwise just a number of other small api changes and updates here,
nothing major. All of these patches have been in linux-next for a

Commit aba831a69632 ("xen: remove tests for pvh mode in pure pv paths")
removed XENFEAT_auto_translated_physmap test in xen_alloc_p2m_entry()
since it is assumed that the routine is never called by non-PV guests.
However, alloc_xenballooned_pages() may make this call on a PVH guest.
Prevent this from happening by adding XENFEAT_auto_translated_physmap
check there.

xen_evtchn_fifo_init() will always be called before SMP is initialized,
so {get,put}_cpu() could be replaced by a simple smp_processor_id().

We have one ioworker per socket. Each ioworker goes through the list of
outstanding read/write requests. Once all requests have been dealt with,
it returns.
We use one atomic counter per socket for "read" operations and one
for "write" operations to keep track of the reads/writes to do.
We also use one atomic counter ("io") per ioworker to keep track of how
many outstanding requests we have in total assigned to the ioworker. The
ioworker finishes when there are none.

contains pointers to the command ring, its event channel, a list of

sockets only on release).
It also has an unbound workqueue to schedule the work of parsing and

lists. In pvcalls_back_global, keep a list of connected frontends.

It's better to be explicit and use the DRIVER_ATTR_RW() and
DRIVER_ATTR_RO() macros when defining a driver's sysfs file.
Bonus is this fixes up a checkpatch.pl warning.
This is part of a series to drop DRIVER_ATTR() from the tree entirely.

Commit 971a69db7dc0 ("Xen: don't warn about 2-byte wchar_t in efi")
added the --no-wchar-size-warning to the Makefile to avoid this
harmless warning:
arm-linux-gnueabi-ld: warning: drivers/xen/efi.o uses 2-byte wchar_t yet the output is to use 4-byte wchar_t; use of wchar_t values across objects may fail
Changing kbuild to use thin archives instead of recursive linking
unfortunately brings the same warning back during the final link.
The kernel does not use wchar_t string literals at this point, and
xen does not use wchar_t at all (only efi_char16_t), so the flag
has no effect, but as pointed out by Jan Beulich, adding a wchar_t
string literal would be bad here.
Since wchar_t is always defined as u16, independent of the toolchain
default, always passing -fshort-wchar is correct and lets us
remove the Xen specific hack along with fixing the warning.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen into for-linus
Pull xen block changes from Konrad:
Two fixes, both of them spotted by Amazon:
1) Fix in Xen-blkfront caused by the re-write in 4.8 time-frame.
2) Fix in the xen_biovec_phys_mergeable which allowed guest
requests when using NVMe - to slurp up more data than allowed
leading to an XSA (which has been made public today).
|
|
The current test for bio vec merging is not fully accurate and can be
tricked into merging bios when certain grant combinations are used.
The result of these malicious bio merges is a bio that extends past
the memory page used by any of the originating bios.
Take into account the following scenario, where a guest creates two
grant references that point to the same mfn, ie: grant 1 -> mfn A,
grant 2 -> mfn A.
These references are then used in a PV block request, and mapped by
the backend domain, thus obtaining two different pfns that point to
the same mfn, pfn B -> mfn A, pfn C -> mfn A.
If those grants happen to be used in two consecutive sectors of a disk
IO operation becoming two different bios in the backend domain, the
checks in xen_biovec_phys_mergeable will succeed, because bfn1 == bfn2
(they both point to the same mfn). However due to the bio merging,
the backend domain will end up with a bio that expands past mfn A into
mfn A + 1.
Fix this by making sure the check in xen_biovec_phys_mergeable takes
into account the offset and the length of the bio, this basically
replicates whats done in __BIOVEC_PHYS_MERGEABLE using mfns (bus
addresses). While there also remove the usage of
__BIOVEC_PHYS_MERGEABLE, since that's already checked by the callers
of xen_biovec_phys_mergeable.

Here is a device has xen-pirq-MSI interrupt. Dom0 might lost interrupt
during driver irq_disable/irq_enable. Here is the scenario,
1. irq_disable -> disable_dynirq -> mask_evtchn(irq channel)
2. dev interrupt raised by HW and Xen mark its evtchn as pending
3. irq_enable -> startup_pirq -> eoi_pirq ->
clear_evtchn(channel of irq) -> clear pending status
4. consume_one_event process the irq event without pending bit assert
which result in interrupt lost once
5. No HW interrupt raising anymore.
Now use enable_dynirq for enable_pirq of xen_pirq_chip to remove
eoi_pirq when irq_enable.

When starting the xenwatch thread a theoretical deadlock situation is
possible:
xs_init() contains:
task = kthread_run(xenwatch_thread, NULL, "xenwatch");
if (IS_ERR(task))
return PTR_ERR(task);
xenwatch_pid = task->pid;
And xenwatch_thread() does:
mutex_lock(&xenwatch_mutex);
...
event->handle->callback();
...
mutex_unlock(&xenwatch_mutex);
The callback could call unregister_xenbus_watch() which does:
...
if (current->pid != xenwatch_pid)
mutex_lock(&xenwatch_mutex);
...
In case a watch is firing before xenwatch_pid could be set and the
callback of that watch unregisters a watch, then a self-deadlock would
occur.
Avoid this by setting xenwatch_pid in xenwatch_thread().

When setting up the Xenstore watch for the memory target size the new
watch will fire at once. Don't try to reach the configured target size
by onlining new memory in this case, as the current memory size will
be smaller in almost all cases due to e.g. BIOS reserved pages.
Onlining new memory will lead to more problems e.g. undesired conflicts
with NVMe devices meant to be operated as block devices.
Instead remember the difference between target size and current size
when the watch fires for the first time and apply it to any further
size changes, too.
In order to avoid races between balloon.c and xen-balloon.c init calls
do the xen-balloon.c initialization from balloon.c.

log a message when we enter this situation:
1) we already allocated the max number of available grants from hypervisor
and
2) we still need more (but the request fails because of 1)).
Sometimes the lack of grants causes IO hangs in xen_blkfront devices.

Target drivers must guarantee that struct se_cmd and struct se_tmr_req
exist as long as target_tmr_work() is in progress. Since the last
access by the LIO core is a call to .check_stop_free() and since the
Xen scsiback .check_stop_free() drops a reference to the TMF, it is
already guaranteed that the struct se_cmd that corresponds to the TMF
exists as long as target_tmr_work() is in progress. Hence change the
second argument of transport_generic_free_cmd() from 1 into 0.
