* xen: adjust early dom0 p2m handling to xen hypervisor behaviorJuergen Gross2017-05-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 69861e0a52f8733355ce246f0db15e1b240ad667 upstream. When booted as pv-guest the p2m list presented by the Xen is already mapped to virtual addresses. In dom0 case the hypervisor might make use of 2M- or 1G-pages for this mapping. Unfortunately while being properly aligned in virtual and machine address space, those pages might not be aligned properly in guest physical address space. So when trying to obtain the guest physical address of such a page pud_pfn() and pmd_pfn() must be avoided as those will mask away guest physical address bits not being zero in this special case.

* xen: Revert commits da72ff5bfcb0 and 72a9b186292dBoris Ostrovsky2017-05-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 84d582d236dc1f9085e741affc72e9ba061a67c2 upstream. Recent discussion (http://marc.info/?l=xen-devel&m=149192184523741) established that commit 72a9b186292d ("xen: Remove event channel notification through Xen PCI platform device") (and thus commit da72ff5bfcb0 ("partially revert "xen: Remove event channel notification through Xen PCI platform device"")) are unnecessary and, in fact, prevent HVM guests from booting on Xen releases prior to 4.0 Therefore we revert both of those commits. The summary of that discussion is below: Here is the brief summary of the current situation: Before the offending commit (72a9b186292): 1) INTx does not work because of the reset_watches path. 2) The reset_watches path is only taken if you have Xen > 4.0 3) The Linux Kernel by default will use vector inject if the hypervisor support. So even INTx does not work no body running the kernel with Xen > 4.0 would notice. Unless he explicitly disabled this feature either in the kernel or in Xen (and this can only be disabled by modifying the code, not user-supported way to do it). After the offending commit (+ partial revert): 1) INTx is no longer support for HVM (only for PV guests). 2) Any HVM guest The kernel will not boot on Xen < 4.0 which does not have vector injection support. Since the only other mode supported is INTx which. So based on this summary, I think before commit (72a9b186292) we were in much better position from a user point of view.

* x86/xen: Fix APIC id mismatch warning on IntelMohit Gambhir2017-04-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit cc272163ea554a97dac180fa8dd6cd54c2810bd1 upstream. This patch fixes the following warning message seen when booting the kernel as Dom0 with Xen on Intel machines. [0.003000] [Firmware Bug]: CPU1: APIC id mismatch. Firmware: 0 APIC: 1] The code generating the warning in validate_apic_and_package_id() matches cpu_data(cpu).apicid (initialized in init_intel()-> detect_extended_topology() using cpuid) against the apicid returned from xen_apic_read(). Now, xen_apic_read() makes a hypercall to retrieve apicid for the boot cpu but returns 0 otherwise. Hence the warning gets thrown for all but the boot cpu. The idea behind xen_apic_read() returning 0 for apicid is that the guests (even Dom0) should not need to know what physical processor their vcpus are running on. This is because we currently do not have topology information in Xen and also because xen allows more vcpus than physical processors. However, boot cpu's apicid is required for loading xen-acpi-processor driver on AMD machines. Look at following patch for details: commit 558daa289a40 ("xen/apic: Return the APIC ID (and version) for CPU 0.") So to get rid of the warning, this patch modifies xen_cpu_present_to_apicid() to return cpu_data(cpu).apicid instead of calling xen_apic_read(). The warning is not seen on AMD machines because init_amd() populates cpu_data(cpu).apicid by calling hard_smp_processor_id()->xen_apic_read() as opposed to using apicid from cpuid as is done on Intel machines.

* xen/setup: Don't relocate p2m over existing oneRoss Lagerwall2017-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 7ecec8503af37de6be4f96b53828d640a968705f upstream. When relocating the p2m, take special care not to relocate it so that is overlaps with the current location of the p2m/initrd. This is needed since the full extent of the current location is not marked as a reserved region in the e820. This was seen to happen to a dom0 with a large initial p2m and a small reserved region in the middle of the initial p2m.

* x86/smpboot: Make logical package management more robustThomas Gleixner2017-01-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 9d85eb9119f4eeeb48e87adfcd71f752655700e9 upstream. The logical package management has several issues: - The APIC ids provided by ACPI are not required to be the same as the initial APIC id which can be retrieved by CPUID. The APIC ids provided by ACPI are those which are written by the BIOS into the APIC. The initial id is set by hardware and can not be changed. The hardware provided ids contain the real hardware package information. Especially AMD sets the effective APIC id different from the hardware id as they need to reserve space for the IOAPIC ids starting at id 0. As a consequence those machines trigger the currently active firmware bug printouts in dmesg, These are obviously wrong. - Virtual machines have their own interesting of enumerating APICs and packages which are not reliably covered by the current implementation. The sizing of the mapping array has been tweaked to be generously large to handle systems which provide a wrong core count when HT is disabled so the whole magic which checks for space in the physical hotplug case is not needed anymore. Simplify the whole machinery and do the mapping when the CPU starts and the CPUID derived physical package information is available. This solves the observed problems on AMD machines and works for the virtualization issues as well. Remove the extra call from XEN cpu bringup code as it is not longer required.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Early during boot topology_update_package_map() computes logical_pkg_ids for all present processors. Later, when processors are brought up, identify_cpu() updates these values based on phys_pkg_id which is a function of initial_apicid. On PV guests the latter may point to a non-existing node, causing logical_pkg_ids to be set to -1. Intel's RAPL uses logical_pkg_id (as topology_logical_package_id()) to index its arrays and therefore in this case will point to index 65535 (since logical_pkg_id is a u16). This could lead to either a crash or may actually access random memory location. As a workaround, we recompute topology during CPU bringup to reset logical_pkg_id to a valid value. (The reason for initial_apicid being bogus is because it is initial_apicid of the processor from which the guest is launched. This value is CPUID(1).EBX[31:24]) Signed-off-by: Boris Ostrovsky <boris.ostrovsky@oracle.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com>

| * xen: Remove event channel notification through Xen PCI platform deviceKarimAllah Ahmed2016-09-30

That means that the guest can not be notified at this moment of any pending event channels and none of the per-event handlers will ever be invoked (including the XenStore one) and the reply will never be picked up by the kernel. The exact stack where things get stuck during xenbus_init: -xenbus_init -xs_init -xs_reset_watches -xenbus_scanf -xenbus_read -xs_single -xs_single -xs_talkv Vector callbacks have always been the favourite event notification mechanism since their introduction in commit 38e20b07efd5 ("x86/xen: event channels delivery on HVM.") and the vector callback feature has always been advertised for quite some time by Xen that's why INTx was broken for several years now without impacting anyone. Luckily this also means that event channel notification through INTx is basically dead-code which can be safely removed without impacting anybody since it has been effectively disabled for more than 4 years with nobody complaining about it (at least as far as I'm aware of). This commit removes event channel notification through Xen PCI platform device.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Historically a lot of these existed because we did not have a distinction between what was modular code and what was providing support to modules via EXPORT_SYMBOL and friends. That changed when we forked out support for the latter into the export.h file. This means we should be able to reduce the usage of module.h in code that is obj-y Makefile or bool Kconfig. The advantage in doing so is that module.h itself sources about 15 other headers; adding significantly to what we feed cpp, and it can obscure what headers we are effectively using. Since module.h was the source for init.h (for __init) and for export.h (for EXPORT_SYMBOL) we consider each obj-y/bool instance for the presence of either and replace as needed.

In some cases these ideas diverge so we need to do remapping. Convert all callers of HYPERVISOR_vcpu_op() to use xen_vcpu_nr(). Leave xen_fill_possible_map() and xen_filter_cpu_maps() intact as they're only being called by PV guests before perpu areas are initialized. While the issue could be solved by switching to early_percpu for xen_vcpu_id I think it's not worth it: PV guests will probably never get to the point where their idea of vCPU id diverges from Xen's.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It may happen that Xen's and Linux's ideas of vCPU id diverge. In particular, when we crash on a secondary vCPU we may want to do kdump and unlike plain kexec where we do migrate_to_reboot_cpu() we try booting on the vCPU which crashed. This doesn't work very well for PVHVM guests as we have a number of hypercalls where we pass vCPU id as a parameter. These hypercalls either fail or do something unexpected. To solve the issue introduce percpu xen_vcpu_id mapping. ARM and PV guests get direct mapping for now. Boot CPU for PVHVM guest gets its id from CPUID. With secondary CPUs it is a bit more trickier. Currently, we initialize IPI vectors before these CPUs boot so we can't use CPUID. Use ACPI ids from MADT instead.

| * | tree wide: get rid of __GFP_REPEAT for order-0 allocations part IMichal Hocko2016-06-24
| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the third version of the patchset previously sent [1]. I have basically only rebased it on top of 4.7-rc1 tree and dropped "dm: get rid of superfluous gfp flags" which went through dm tree. I am sending it now because it is tree wide and chances for conflicts are reduced considerably when we want to target rc2. I plan to send the next step and rename the flag and move to a better semantic later during this release cycle so we will have a new semantic ready for 4.8 merge window hopefully. Motivation: While working on something unrelated I've checked the current usage of __GFP_REPEAT in the tree. It seems that a majority of the usage is and always has been bogus because __GFP_REPEAT has always been about costly high order allocations while we are using it for order-0 or very small orders very often. It seems that a big pile of them is just a copy&paste when a code has been adopted from one arch to another. I think it makes some sense to get rid of them because they are just making the semantic more unclear. Please note that GFP_REPEAT is documented as * __GFP_REPEAT: Try hard to allocate the memory, but the allocation attempt * _might_ fail. This depends upon the particular VM implementation. while !costly requests have basically nofail semantic. So one could reasonably expect that order-0 request with __GFP_REPEAT will not loop for ever. This is not implemented right now though. I would like to move on with __GFP_REPEAT and define a better semantic for it. $ git grep __GFP_REPEAT origin/master | wc -l 111 $ git grep __GFP_REPEAT | wc -l 36 So we are down to the third after this patch series. The remaining places really seem to be relying on __GFP_REPEAT due to large allocation requests. This still needs some double checking which I will do later after all the simple ones are sorted out. I am touching a lot of arch specific code here and I hope I got it right but as a matter of fact I even didn't compile test for some archs as I do not have cross compiler for them. Patches should be quite trivial to review for stupid compile mistakes though. The tricky parts are usually hidden by macro definitions and thats where I would appreciate help from arch maintainers. [1] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1461849846-27209-1-git-send-email-mhocko@kernel.org This patch (of 19): __GFP_REPEAT has a rather weak semantic but since it has been introduced around 2.6.12 it has been ignored for low order allocations. Yet we have the full kernel tree with its usage for apparently order-0 allocations. This is really confusing because __GFP_REPEAT is explicitly documented to allow allocation failures which is a weaker semantic than the current order-0 has (basically nofail). Let's simply drop __GFP_REPEAT from those places. This would allow to identify place which really need allocator to retry harder and formulate a more specific semantic for what the flag is supposed to do actually.

* | x86/xen: avoid m2p lookup when setting early page table entriesDavid Vrabel2016-06-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When page tables entries are set using xen_set_pte_init() during early boot there is no page fault handler that could handle a fault when performing an M2P lookup. In 64 bit guests (usually dom0) early_ioremap() would fault in xen_set_pte_init() because an M2P lookup faults because the MFN is in MMIO space and not mapped in the M2P. This lookup is done to see if the PFN in in the range used for the initial page table pages, so that the PTE may be set as read-only. The M2P lookup can be avoided by moving the check (and clear of RW) earlier when the PFN is still available.
