2016-08-12KVM: Protect device ops->create and list_add with kvm->lockChristoffer Dall1-1/+12
KVM devices were manipulating list data structures without any form of synchronization, and some implementations of the create operations also suffered from a lack of synchronization. Now when we've split the xics create operation into create and init, we can hold the kvm->lock mutex while calling the create operation and when manipulating the devices list. The error path in the generic code gets slightly ugly because we have to take the mutex again and delete the device from the list, but holding the mutex during anon_inode_getfd or releasing/locking the mutex in the common non-error path seemed wrong.

2016-08-12KVM: PPC: Move xics_debugfs_init out of createChristoffer Dall1-0/+3
As we are about to hold the kvm->lock during the create operation on KVM devices, we should move the call to xics_debugfs_init into its own function, since holding a mutex over extended amounts of time might not be a good idea. Introduce an init operation on the kvm_device_ops struct which cannot fail and call this, if configured, after the device has been created.

The kvm_io_bus framework is a nice place of holding information about various MMIO regions for kernel emulated devices. Add a call to retrieve the kvm_io_device structure which is associated with a certain MMIO address. This avoids to duplicate kvm_io_bus' knowledge of MMIO regions without having to fake MMIO calls if a user needs the device a certain MMIO address belongs to. This will be used by the ITS emulation to get the associated ITS device when someone triggers an MSI via an ioctl from userspace.

2016-07-14KVM: nVMX: Fix memory corruption when using VMCS shadowingJim Mattson1-0/+2
When freeing the nested resources of a vcpu, there is an assumption that the vcpu's vmcs01 is the current VMCS on the CPU that executes nested_release_vmcs12(). If this assumption is violated, the vcpu's vmcs01 may be made active on multiple CPUs at the same time, in violation of Intel's specification. Moreover, since the vcpu's vmcs01 is not VMCLEARed on every CPU on which it is active, it can linger in a CPU's VMCS cache after it has been freed and potentially repurposed. Subsequent eviction from the CPU's VMCS cache on a capacity miss can result in memory corruption. It is not sufficient for vmx_free_vcpu() to call vmx_load_vmcs01(). If the vcpu in question was last loaded on a different CPU, it must be migrated to the current CPU before calling vmx_load_vmcs01().

The vGPU folks would like to trap the first access to a BAR by setting vm_ops on the VMAs produced by mmap-ing a VFIO device. The fault handler then can use remap_pfn_range to place some non-reserved pages in the VMA. This kind of VM_PFNMAP mapping is not handled by KVM, but follow_pfn and fixup_user_fault together help supporting it. The patch also supports VM_MIXEDMAP vmas where the pfns are not reserved and thus subject to reference counting.

2016-06-16KVM: introduce kvm->created_vcpusPaolo Bonzini1-6/+17
The race between creating the irqchip and the first VCPU is currently fixed by checking the presence of an irqchip before updating kvm->online_vcpus, and undoing the whole VCPU creation if someone created the irqchip in the meanwhile. Instead, introduce a new field in struct kvm that will count VCPUs under a mutex, without the atomic access and memory ordering that we need elsewhere to protect the vcpus array. This also plugs the race and is more easily applicable in all similar circumstances. Reviewed-by: Cornelia Huck <cornelia.huck@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

2016-05-18KVM: shrink halt polling even more for invalid wakeupsChristian Borntraeger1-3/+4
commit 3491caf2755e ("KVM: halt_polling: provide a way to qualify wakeups during poll") added more aggressive shrinking of the polling interval if the wakeup did not match some criteria. This still allows to keep polling enabled if the polling time was smaller that the current max poll time (block_ns <= vcpu->halt_poll_ns). Performance measurement shows that even more aggressive shrinking (shrink polling on any invalid wakeup) reduces absolute and relative (to the workload) CPU usage even further.

2016-05-13KVM: halt_polling: provide a way to qualify wakeups during pollChristian Borntraeger1-2/+6
Some wakeups should not be considered a sucessful poll. For example on s390 I/O interrupts are usually floating, which means that _ALL_ CPUs would be considered runnable - letting all vCPUs poll all the time for transactional like workload, even if one vCPU would be enough. This can result in huge CPU usage for large guests. This patch lets architectures provide a way to qualify wakeups if they should be considered a good/bad wakeups in regard to polls. For s390 the implementation will fence of halt polling for anything but known good, single vCPU events. The s390 implementation for floating interrupts does a wakeup for one vCPU, but the interrupt will be delivered by whatever CPU checks first for a pending interrupt. We prefer the woken up CPU by marking the poll of this CPU as "good" poll. This code will also mark several other wakeup reasons like IPI or expired timers as "good". This will of course also mark some events as not sucessful. As KVM on z runs always as a 2nd level hypervisor, we prefer to not poll, unless we are really sure, though. This patch successfully limits the CPU usage for cases like uperf 1byte transactional ping pong workload or wakeup heavy workload like OLTP while still providing a proper speedup. This also introduced a new vcpu stat "halt_poll_no_tuning" that marks wakeups that are considered not good for polling.

2016-05-11kvm: introduce KVM_MAX_VCPU_IDGreg Kurz1-1/+3
The KVM_MAX_VCPUS define provides the maximum number of vCPUs per guest, and also the upper limit for vCPU ids. This is okay for all archs except PowerPC which can have higher ids, depending on the cpu/core/thread topology. In the worst case (single threaded guest, host with 8 threads per core), it limits the maximum number of vCPUS to KVM_MAX_VCPUS / 8. This patch separates the vCPU numbering from the total number of vCPUs, with the introduction of KVM_MAX_VCPU_ID, as the maximal valid value for vCPU ids plus one. The corresponding KVM_CAP_MAX_VCPU_ID allows userspace to validate vCPU ids before passing them to KVM_CREATE_VCPU. This patch only implements KVM_MAX_VCPU_ID with a specific value for PowerPC. Other archs continue to return KVM_MAX_VCPUS instead.

Pull x86 protection key support from Ingo Molnar: "This tree adds support for a new memory protection hardware feature that is available in upcoming Intel CPUs: 'protection keys' (pkeys). There's a background article at LWN.net: https://lwn.net/Articles/643797/ The gist is that protection keys allow the encoding of user-controllable permission masks in the pte. So instead of having a fixed protection mask in the pte (which needs a system call to change and works on a per page basis), the user can map a (handful of) protection mask variants and can change the masks runtime relatively cheaply, without having to change every single page in the affected virtual memory range. This allows the dynamic switching of the protection bits of large amounts of virtual memory, via user-space instructions. It also allows more precise control of MMU permission bits: for example the executable bit is separate from the read bit (see more about that below). This tree adds the MM infrastructure and low level x86 glue needed for that, plus it adds a high level API to make use of protection keys - if a user-space application calls: mmap(..., PROT_EXEC); or mprotect(ptr, sz, PROT_EXEC); (note PROT_EXEC-only, without PROT_READ/WRITE), the kernel will notice this special case, and will set a special protection key on this memory range. It also sets the appropriate bits in the Protection Keys User Rights (PKRU) register so that the memory becomes unreadable and unwritable. So using protection keys the kernel is able to implement 'true' PROT_EXEC on x86 CPUs: without protection keys PROT_EXEC implies PROT_READ as well. Unreadable executable mappings have security advantages: they cannot be read via information leaks to figure out ASLR details, nor can they be scanned for ROP gadgets - and they cannot be used by exploits for data purposes either. We know about no user-space code that relies on pure PROT_EXEC mappings today, but binary loaders could start making use of this new feature to map binaries and libraries in a more secure fashion. There is other pending pkeys work that offers more high level system call APIs to manage protection keys - but those are not part of this pull request. Right now there's a Kconfig that controls this feature (CONFIG_X86_INTEL_MEMORY_PROTECTION_KEYS) that is default enabled (like most x86 CPU feature enablement code that has no runtime overhead), but it's not user-configurable at the moment. If there's any serious problem with this then we can make it configurable and/or flip the default" * 'mm-pkeys-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (38 commits) x86/mm/pkeys: Fix mismerge of protection keys CPUID bits mm/pkeys: Fix siginfo ABI breakage caused by new u64 field x86/mm/pkeys: Fix access_error() denial of writes to write-only VMA mm/core, x86/mm/pkeys: Add execute-only protection keys support x86/mm/pkeys: Create an x86 arch_calc_vm_prot_bits() for VMA flags x86/mm/pkeys: Allow kernel to modify user pkey rights register x86/fpu: Allow setting of XSAVE state x86/mm: Factor out LDT init from context init mm/core, x86/mm/pkeys: Add arch_validate_pkey() mm/core, arch, powerpc: Pass a protection key in to calc_vm_flag_bits() x86/mm/pkeys: Actually enable Memory Protection Keys in the CPU x86/mm/pkeys: Add Kconfig prompt to existing config option x86/mm/pkeys: Dump pkey from VMA in /proc/pid/smaps x86/mm/pkeys: Dump PKRU with other kernel registers mm/core, x86/mm/pkeys: Differentiate instruction fetches x86/mm/pkeys: Optimize fault handling in access_error() mm/core: Do not enforce PKEY permissions on remote mm access um, pkeys: Add UML arch_*_access_permitted() methods mm/gup, x86/mm/pkeys: Check VMAs and PTEs for protection keys x86/mm/gup: Simplify get_user_pages() PTE bit handling ...

2016-03-09kvm: cap halt polling at exactly halt_poll_nsDavid Matlack1-0/+3
When growing halt-polling, there is no check that the poll time exceeds the limit. It's possible for vcpu->halt_poll_ns grow once past halt_poll_ns, and stay there until a halt which takes longer than vcpu->halt_poll_ns. For example, booting a Linux guest with halt_poll_ns=11000: ... kvm:kvm_halt_poll_ns: vcpu 0: halt_poll_ns 0 (shrink 10000) ... kvm:kvm_halt_poll_ns: vcpu 0: halt_poll_ns 10000 (grow 0) ... kvm:kvm_halt_poll_ns: vcpu 0: halt_poll_ns 20000 (grow 10000) Signed-off-by: David Matlack <dmatlack@google.com> Fixes: aca6ff29c4063a8d467cdee241e6b3bf7dc4a171 Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

2016-02-25KVM: Use simple waitqueue for vcpu->wqMarcelo Tosatti1-9/+8
The problem: On -rt, an emulated LAPIC timer instances has the following path: 1) hard interrupt 2) ksoftirqd is scheduled 3) ksoftirqd wakes up vcpu thread 4) vcpu thread is scheduled This extra context switch introduces unnecessary latency in the LAPIC path for a KVM guest. The solution: Allow waking up vcpu thread from hardirq context, thus avoiding the need for ksoftirqd to be scheduled. Normal waitqueues make use of spinlocks, which on -RT are sleepable locks. Therefore, waking up a waitqueue waiter involves locking a sleeping lock, which is not allowed from hard interrupt context. cyclictest command line: This patch reduces the average latency in my tests from 14us to 11us.

2016-01-15kvm: rename pfn_t to kvm_pfn_tDan Williams1-23/+24
To date, we have implemented two I/O usage models for persistent memory, PMEM (a persistent "ram disk") and DAX (mmap persistent memory into userspace). This series adds a third, DAX-GUP, that allows DAX mappings to be the target of direct-i/o. It allows userspace to coordinate DMA/RDMA from/to persistent memory. The implementation leverages the ZONE_DEVICE mm-zone that went into 4.3-rc1 (also discussed at kernel summit) to flag pages that are owned and dynamically mapped by a device driver. The pmem driver, after mapping a persistent memory range into the system memmap via devm_memremap_pages(), arranges for DAX to distinguish pfn-only versus page-backed pmem-pfns via flags in the new pfn_t type. The DAX code, upon seeing a PFN_DEV+PFN_MAP flagged pfn, flags the resulting pte(s) inserted into the process page tables with a new _PAGE_DEVMAP flag. Later, when get_user_pages() is walking ptes it keys off _PAGE_DEVMAP to pin the device hosting the page range active. Finally, get_page() and put_page() are modified to take references against the device driver established page mapping. Finally, this need for "struct page" for persistent memory requires memory capacity to store the memmap array. Given the memmap array for a large pool of persistent may exhaust available DRAM introduce a mechanism to allocate the memmap from persistent memory. The new "struct vmem_altmap *" parameter to devm_memremap_pages() enables arch_add_memory() to use reserved pmem capacity rather than the page allocator. This patch (of 18): The core has developed a need for a "pfn_t" type [1]. Move the existing pfn_t in KVM to kvm_pfn_t [2].

KVM creates debugfs files to export VM statistics to userland. To be able to remove them on kvm exit it tracks the files' dentries. Since their parent directory is also tracked and since each parent direntry knows its children we can easily remove them by using debugfs_remove_recursive(kvm_debugfs_dir). Therefore we don't need the extra tracking in the kvm_stats_debugfs_item anymore.

For example, say halt_poll_ns = 480000, and wakeups are spaced exactly like 479us, 481us, 479us, 481us. Then KVM always fails polling and wastes 10+20+40+80+160+320+480 = 1110 microseconds out of every 479+481+479+481+479+481+479 = 3359 microseconds. The VCPU then is consuming about 30% more CPU than it would use without polling. This would show as an abnormally high number of attempted polling compared to the successful polls.

2015-09-10mmu-notifier: add clear_young callbackVladimir Davydov1-0/+31
In the scope of the idle memory tracking feature, which is introduced by the following patch, we need to clear the referenced/accessed bit not only in primary, but also in secondary ptes. The latter is required in order to estimate wss of KVM VMs. At the same time we want to avoid flushing tlb, because it is quite expensive and it won't really affect the final result. Currently, there is no function for clearing pte young bit that would meet our requirements, so this patch introduces one. To achieve that we have to add a new mmu-notifier callback, clear_young, since there is no method for testing-and-clearing a secondary pte w/o flushing tlb. The new method is not mandatory and currently only implemented by KVM.
