2015-02-09KVM: Disable compat ioctl for s390Christian Borntraeger
We never had a 31bit QEMU/kuli running. We would need to review several ioctls to check if this creates holes, bugs or whatever to make it work. Lets just disable compat support for KVM on s390.

2015-02-06kvm: add halt_poll_ns module parameterPaolo Bonzini
This patch introduces a new module parameter for the KVM module; when it is present, KVM attempts a bit of polling on every HLT before scheduling itself out via kvm_vcpu_block. This parameter helps a lot for latency-bound workloads---in particular I tested it with O_DSYNC writes with a battery-backed disk in the host. In this case, writes are fast (because the data doesn't have to go all the way to the platters) but they cannot be merged by either the host or the guest. KVM's performance here is usually around 30% of bare metal, or 50% if you use cache=directsync or cache=writethrough (these parameters avoid that the guest sends pointless flush requests, and at the same time they are not slow because of the battery-backed cache). The bad performance happens because on every halt the host CPU decides to halt itself too. When the interrupt comes, the vCPU thread is then migrated to a new physical CPU, and in general the latency is horrible because the vCPU thread has to be scheduled back in. With this patch performance reaches 60-65% of bare metal and, more important, 99% of what you get if you use idle=poll in the guest. This means that the tunable gets rid of this particular bottleneck, and more work can be done to improve performance in the kernel or QEMU. Of course there is some price to pay; every time an otherwise idle vCPUs is interrupted by an interrupt, it will poll unnecessarily and thus impose a little load on the host. The above results were obtained with a mostly random value of the parameter (500000), and the load was around 1.5-2.5% CPU usage on one of the host's core for each idle guest vCPU. The patch also adds a new stat, /sys/kernel/debug/kvm/halt_successful_poll, that can be used to tune the parameter. It counts how many HLT instructions received an interrupt during the polling period; each successful poll avoids that Linux schedules the VCPU thread out and back in, and may also avoid a likely trip to C1 and back for the physical CPU. While the VM is idle, a Linux 4 VCPU VM halts around 10 times per second. Of these halts, almost all are failed polls. During the benchmark, instead, basically all halts end within the polling period, except a more or less constant stream of 50 per second coming from vCPUs that are not running the benchmark. The wasted time is thus very low. Things may be slightly different for Windows VMs, which have a ~10 ms timer tick. The effect is also visible on Marcelo's recently-introduced latency test for the TSC deadline timer. Though of course a non-RT kernel has awful latency bounds, the latency of the timer is around 8000-10000 clock cycles compared to 20000-120000 without setting halt_poll_ns. For the TSC deadline timer, thus, the effect is both a smaller average latency and a smaller variance. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

2014-12-28kvm: fix sorting of memslots with base_gfn == 0Paolo Bonzini
Before commit 0e60b0799fed (kvm: change memslot sorting rule from size to GFN, 2014-12-01), the memslots' sorting key was npages, meaning that a valid memslot couldn't have its sorting key equal to zero. On the other hand, a valid memslot can have base_gfn == 0, and invalid memslots are identified by base_gfn == npages == 0. Because of this, commit 0e60b0799fed broke the invariant that invalid memslots are at the end of the mslots array. When a memslot with base_gfn == 0 was created, any invalid memslot before it were left in place. This can be fixed by changing the insertion to use a ">=" comparison instead of "<=", but some care is needed to avoid breaking the case of deleting a memslot; see the comment in update_memslots.

2014-12-04KVM: track pid for VCPU only on KVM_RUN ioctlChristian Borntraeger
We currently track the pid of the task that runs the VCPU in vcpu_load. If a yield to that VCPU is triggered while the PID of the wrong thread is active, the wrong thread might receive a yield, but this will most likely not help the executing thread at all. Instead, if we only track the pid on the KVM_RUN ioctl, there are two possibilities: 1) the thread that did a non-KVM_RUN ioctl is holding a mutex that the VCPU thread is waiting for. In this case, the VCPU thread is not runnable, but we also do not do a wrong yield. 2) the thread that did a non-KVM_RUN ioctl is sleeping, or doing something that does not block the VCPU thread. In this case, the VCPU thread can receive the directed yield correctly.

2014-12-04KVM: don't check for PF_VCPU when yieldingDavid Hildenbrand
kvm_enter_guest() has to be called with preemption disabled and will set PF_VCPU. Current code takes PF_VCPU as a hint that the VCPU thread is running and therefore needs no yield. However, the check on PF_VCPU is wrong on s390, where preemption has to stay enabled in order to correctly process page faults. Thus, s390 reenables preemption and starts to execute the guest. The thread might be scheduled out between kvm_enter_guest() and kvm_exit_guest(), resulting in PF_VCPU being set but not being run. When this happens, the opportunity for directed yield is missed. However, this check is done already in kvm_vcpu_on_spin before calling kvm_vcpu_yield_loop: if (!ACCESS_ONCE(vcpu->preempted)) continue; so the check on PF_VCPU is superfluous in general, and this patch removes it.

2014-12-04kvm: optimize GFN to memslot lookup with large slots amountIgor Mammedov
Current linear search doesn't scale well when large amount of memslots is used and looked up slot is not in the beginning memslots array. Taking in account that memslots don't overlap, it's possible to switch sorting order of memslots array from 'npages' to 'base_gfn' and use binary search for memslot lookup by GFN. As result of switching to binary search lookup times are reduced with large amount of memslots. Following is a table of search_memslot() cycles during WS2008R2 guest boot. boot, boot + ~10 min mostly same of using it, slot lookup randomized lookup max average average cycles cycles cycles 13 slots : 1450 28 30 13 slots : 1400 30 40 binary search 117 slots : 13000 30 460 117 slots : 2000 35 180 binary search Signed-off-by: Igor Mammedov <imammedo@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

2014-11-25kvm: fix kvm_is_mmio_pfn() and rename to kvm_is_reserved_pfn()Ard Biesheuvel
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.

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.

2014-09-24kvm: Faults which trigger IO release the mmap_semAndres Lagar-Cavilla
When KVM handles a tdp fault it uses FOLL_NOWAIT. If the guest memory has been swapped out or is behind a filemap, this will trigger async readahead and return immediately. The rationale is that KVM will kick back the guest with an "async page fault" and allow for some other guest process to take over. If async PFs are enabled the fault is retried asap from an async workqueue. If not, it's retried immediately in the same code path. In either case the retry will not relinquish the mmap semaphore and will block on the IO. This is a bad thing, as other mmap semaphore users now stall as a function of swap or filemap latency. This patch ensures both the regular and async PF path re-enter the fault allowing for the mmap semaphore to be relinquished in the case of IO wait.

kvm_ioctl_create_device currently has knowledge of all the device types and their associated ops. This is fairly inflexible when adding support for new in-kernel device emulations, so move what we currently have out into a table, which can support dynamic registration of ops by new drivers for virtual hardware.

2014-09-14KVM: check for !is_zero_pfn() in kvm_is_mmio_pfn()Ard Biesheuvel
Read-only memory ranges may be backed by the zero page, so avoid misidentifying it a a MMIO pfn. This fixes another issue I identified when testing QEMU+KVM_UEFI, where a read to an uninitialized emulated NOR flash brought in the zero page, but mapped as a read-write device region, because kvm_is_mmio_pfn() misidentifies it as a MMIO pfn due to its PG_reserved bit being set.

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.

2014-08-29KVM: Unconditionally export KVM_CAP_READONLY_MEMChristoffer Dall
The idea between capabilities and the KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION ioctl is that userspace can, at run-time, determine if a feature is supported or not. This allows KVM to being supporting a new feature with a new kernel version without any need to update user space. Unfortunately, since the definition of KVM_CAP_READONLY_MEM was guarded by #ifdef __KVM_HAVE_READONLY_MEM, such discovery still required a user space update. Therefore, unconditionally export KVM_CAP_READONLY_MEM and change the in-kernel conditional to rely on __KVM_HAVE_READONLY_MEM.
