Wrap asm/jump_label.h for all archs with #ifndef __ASSEMBLY__.
Since these are kernel only headers, we don't need #ifdef
__KERNEL__ so can simplify things a bit.
If an architecture wants to use jump labels in assembly, it
will still need to define a macro to create the __jump_table
entries (see ARCH_STATIC_BRANCH in the powerpc asm/jump_label.h
for an example).

Eric Dumazet touched the surrounding code dealing with how mini

With USB, it's a case of the same bug fix first going into net-next

This patch makes interrupt handling compliant to the z/Architecture
Principles of Operation with regard to interrupt priorities.
Add a bitmap for pending floating interrupts. Each bit relates to a
interrupt type and its list. A turned on bit indicates that a list
contains items (interrupts) which need to be delivered. When delivering
interrupts on a cpu we can merge the existing bitmap for cpu-local
interrupts and floating interrupts and have a single mechanism for
delivery.
Currently we have one list for all kinds of floating interrupts and a
corresponding spin lock. This patch adds a separate list per
interrupt type. An exception to this are service signal and machine check
interrupts, as there can be only one pending interrupt at a time.

Remove the s390 architecture implementation of probe_kernel_write() and
instead use a new function s390_kernel_write() to modify kernel text and
data everywhere.
The s390 implementation of probe_kernel_write() was potentially broken
since it modified memory in a read-modify-write fashion, which read four
bytes, modified the requested bytes within those four bytes and wrote
the result back.
If two cpus would modify the same four byte area at different locations
within that area, this could lead to corruption.
Right now the only places which called probe_kernel_write() did run within
stop_machine_run. Therefore the scenario can't happen right now, however
that might change at any time.
To fix this rename probe_kernel_write() to s390_kernel_write() which can
have special semantics, like only call it while running within stop_machine().

Remove the 31 bit support in order to reduce maintenance cost and
effectively remove dead code. Since a couple of years there is no
distribution left that comes with a 31 bit kernel.
The 31 bit kernel also has been broken since more than a year before
anybody noticed. In addition I added a removal warning to the kernel
shown at ipl for 5 minutes: a960062e5826 ("s390: add 31 bit warning
message") which let everybody know about the plan to remove 31 bit
code. We didn't get any response.
Given that the last 31 bit only machine was introduced in 1999 let's
remove the code.
Anybody with 31 bit user space code can still use the compat mode.

KVM: s390: Features and fixes for 4.1 (kvm/next)
1. Fixes
2. Implement access register mode in KVM
3. Provide a userspace post handler for the STSI instruction
4. Provide an interface for compliant memory accesses
5. Provide an interface for getting/setting the guest storage key
6. Fixup for the vector facility patches: do not announce the
vector facility in the guest for old QEMUs.
1-5 were initially shown as RFC in
http://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm/msg114720.html
some small review changes
- added some ACKs
- have the AR mode patches first
- get rid of unnecessary AR_INVAL define
- typos and language
6. two new patches
The two new patches fixup the vector support patches that were
introduced in the last pull request for QEMU versions that dont
know about vector support and guests that do. (We announce the
facility bit, but dont enable the facility so vector aware guests
will crash on vector instructions).
|
|
The patch represents capability KVM_CAP_S390_VECTOR_REGISTERS by means
of the SIMD facility bit. This allows to a) disable the use of SIMD when
used in conjunction with a not-SIMD-aware QEMU, b) to enable SIMD when
used with a SIMD-aware version of QEMU and c) finally by means of a QEMU
version using the future cpu model ioctls.

The Store System Information (STSI) instruction currently collects all
information it relays to the caller in the kernel. Some information,
however, is only available in user space. An example of this is the
guest name: The kernel always sets "KVMGuest", but user space knows the
actual guest name.
This patch introduces a new exit, KVM_EXIT_S390_STSI, guarded by a
capability that can be enabled by user space if it wants to be able to
insert such data. User space will be provided with the target buffer
and the requested STSI function code.

KVM: s390: Features and Fixes for 4.1 (kvm/next)
1. Several Fixes and enhancements
---------------------------------
- These 3 patches have cc stable:
b75f4c9 KVM: s390: Zero out current VMDB of STSI before including level3 data.
261520d KVM: s390: fix handling of write errors in the tpi handler
15462e3 KVM: s390: reinjection of irqs can fail in the tpi handler
2. SIMD support the kernel part (introduced with z13)
-----------------------------------------------------
- two KVM-generic changes in kvm.h:
1. New capability that can be enabled: KVM_CAP_S390_VECTOR_REGISTERS
2. increased padding size for sync regs in struct kvm_run to clarify that
sync regs can be larger than 1k. This is fine as this is the last
element in the structure.

vector facility bit in the mask of available hardware facilities
for the guest to recognize. Also, enable the vector functionality

Define and allocate space for both the host and guest views of
the vector registers for a given vcpu. The 32 vector registers
occupy 128 bits each (512 bytes total), but architecturally are
paired with 512 additional bytes of reserved space for future
expansion.
The kvm_sync_regs structs containing the registers are union'ed
with 1024 bytes of padding in the common kvm_run struct. The
addition of 1024 bytes of new register information clearly exceeds
the existing union, so an expansion of that padding is required.
When changing environments, we need to appropriately save and
restore the vector registers viewed by both the host and guest,
into and out of the sync_regs space.
The floating point registers overlay the upper half of vector
registers 0-15, so there's a bit of data duplication here that
needs to be carefully avoided.

Most facility related decisions in KVM have to take into account:
- the facilities offered by the underlying run container (LPAR/VM)
- the facilities supported by the KVM code itself
- the facilities requested by a guest VM
This patch adds the KVM driver requested facilities to the test routine.
It additionally renames struct s390_model_fac to kvm_s390_fac and its field
names to be more meaningful.
The semantics of the facilities stored in the KVM architecture structure
is changed. The address arch.model.fac->list now points to the guest
facility list and arch.model.fac->mask points to the KVM facility mask.
This patch fixes the behaviour of KVM for some facilities for guests
that ignore the guest visible facility bits, e.g. guests could use
transactional memory intructions on hosts supporting them even if the
chosen cpu model would not offer them.
The userspace interface is not affected by this change.

Core mm expects __PAGETABLE_{PUD,PMD}_FOLDED to be defined if these page
table levels folded. Usually, these defines are provided by
<asm-generic/pgtable-nopmd.h> and <asm-generic/pgtable-nopud.h>.
But some architectures fold page table levels in a custom way. They
need to define these macros themself. This patch adds missing defines.
The patch fixes mm->nr_pmds underflow and eliminates dead __pmd_alloc()
and __pud_alloc() on architectures without these page table levels.

The hardware folks told me that for page clearing "when you exactly
know what to do, hand written xc+pfd is usally faster then mvcl for
page clearing, as it saves millicode overhead and parameter parsing
and checking" as long as you dont need the cache bypassing.
Turns out that gcc already does a proper xc,pfd loop.
A small test on z196 that does
buff = mmap(NULL, bufsize,PROT_EXEC|PROT_WRITE|PROT_READ,AP_PRIVATE| MAP_ANONYMOUS,0,0);
for ( i = 0; i < bufsize; i+= 256)
buff[i] = 0x5;
gets 20% faster (touches every cache line of a page)
and
buff = mmap(NULL, bufsize,PROT_EXEC|PROT_WRITE|PROT_READ,AP_PRIVATE| MAP_ANONYMOUS,0,0);
for ( i = 0; i < bufsize; i+= 4096)
buff[i] = 0x5;
is within noise ratio (touches one cache line of a page).
As the clear_page is usually called for first memory accesses
we can assume that at least one cache line is used afterwards,
so this change should be always better.
Another benchmark, a make -j 40 of my testsuite in tmpfs with
hot caches on a 32cpu system:
-- unpatched -- -- patched --
real 0m1.017s real 0m0.994s (~2% faster, but in noise)
user 0m5.339s user 0m5.016s (~6% faster)
sys 0m0.691s sys 0m0.632s (~8% faster)

Pull KVM update from Paolo Bonzini:
"Fairly small update, but there are some interesting new features.
Common:
Optional support for adding a small amount of polling on each HLT
instruction executed in the guest (or equivalent for other
architectures). This can improve latency up to 50% on some
scenarios (e.g. O_DSYNC writes or TCP_RR netperf tests). This
also has to be enabled manually for now, but the plan is to
auto-tune this in the future.
ARM/ARM64:
The highlights are support for GICv3 emulation and dirty page
tracking
s390:
Several optimizations and bugfixes. Also a first: a feature
exposed by KVM (UUID and long guest name in /proc/sysinfo) before
it is available in IBM's hypervisor! :)
MIPS:
Bugfixes.
x86:
Support for PML (page modification logging, a new feature in
Broadwell Xeons that speeds up dirty page tracking), nested
virtualization improvements (nested APICv---a nice optimization),
usual round of emulation fixes.
There is also a new option to reduce latency of the TSC deadline
timer in the guest; this needs to be tuned manually.

If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting
the restart block is a very juicy exploit target. This is because the
restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack.
Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by
making the restart_block harder to locate.
Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy
targets, at least on some architectures.
It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less
identical on all architectures.

Convert the per cpu topology cpu masks to a per cpu variable.
At least for machines which do have less possible cpus than NR_CPUS this can
save a bit of memory (z/VM: max 64 vs 512 for performance_defconfig).
This reduces the kernel image size by 100k.

There is no reason to initialize the topology cpu masks already while
setup_arch() is being called. It is sufficient to initialize the masks
before the scheduler becomes SMP aware.
Therefore a pre-SMP initcall aka early_initcall is suffucient.
This also allows to convert the cpu_topology array into a per cpu
variable with a later patch. Without this patch this wouldn't be
possible since the per cpu memory areas are not allocated while setup_arch
is executed.

LKP has triggered a compiler warning after my recent patch "mm: account
pmd page tables to the process":
mm/mmap.c: In function 'exit_mmap':
>> mm/mmap.c:2857:2: warning: right shift count >= width of type [enabled by default]
The code:
> 2857 WARN_ON(mm_nr_pmds(mm) >
2858 round_up(FIRST_USER_ADDRESS, PUD_SIZE) >> PUD_SHIFT);
In this, on tile, we have FIRST_USER_ADDRESS defined as 0. round_up() has
the same type -- int. PUD_SHIFT.
I think the best way to fix it is to define FIRST_USER_ADDRESS as unsigned
long. On every arch for consistency.

With this feature, you can read the CPU performance metrics provided by the
z/VM diagnose 0C. This then allows to get the management time for each
online CPU of the guest where the diagnose is executed.
The new debugfs file /sys/kernel/debug/s390_hypfs/diag_0c exports the
diag0C binary data to user space via an open/read/close interface.
The binary data consists out of a header structure followed by an
array that contains the diagnose 0c data for each online CPU.

This patch enables cpu model support in kvm/s390 via the vm attribute
interface.
During KVM initialization, the host properties cpuid, IBC value and the
facility list are stored in the architecture specific cpu model structure.
During vcpu setup, these properties are taken to initialize the related SIE
state. This mechanism allows to adjust the properties from user space and thus
to implement different selectable cpu models.
This patch uses the IBC functionality to block instructions that have not
been implemented at the requested CPU type and GA level compared to the
full host capability.
Userspace has to initialize the cpu model before vcpu creation. A cpu model
change of running vcpus is not possible.

We need to specify a different format for the crypto control block
depending on whether the APXA facility is installed or not. Let's
test for it by executing the PQAP(QCI) function and use either a
format-1 or a format-2 crypto control block accordingly. This is a
host only change for z13 and does not affect the guest view.

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.

Make use of gcc's hotpatch support to generate better code for ftrace
function tracing.
The generated code now contains only a six byte nop in each function
prologue instead of a 24 byte code block which will be runtime patched to
support function tracing.
With the new code generation the runtime overhead for supporting function
tracing is close to zero, while the original code did show a significant
performance impact.

Christian Borntraeger reported that the now missing diag 44 calls (voluntary
time slice end) does cause a performance regression for stop_machine() calls
if a machine has more virtual cpus than the host has physical cpus.
This patch mainly reverts 57f2ffe14fd125c2 ("s390: remove diag 44 calls from
cpu_relax()") with the exception that we still do not issue diag 44 calls if
running with smt enabled. Due to group scheduling algorithms when running in
LPAR this would lead to significant latencies.
However, when running in LPAR we do not have more virtual than physical cpus.
