| * KVM: Leave TSC synchronization window open with each new syncZachary Amsden2012-03-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, when the TSC is written by the guest, the variable ns is updated to force the current write to appear to have taken place at the time of the first write in this sync phase. This leaves a cliff at the end of the match window where updates will fall of the end. There are two scenarios where this can be a problem in practe - first, on a system with a large number of VCPUs, the sync period may last for an extended period of time. The second way this can happen is if the VM reboots very rapidly and we catch a VCPU TSC synchronization just around the edge. We may be unaware of the reboot, and thus the first VCPU might synchronize with an old set of the timer (at, say 0.97 seconds ago, when first powered on). The second VCPU can come in 0.04 seconds later to try to synchronize, but it misses the window because it is just over the threshold. Instead, stop doing this artificial setback of the ns variable and just update it with every write of the TSC. It may be observed that doing so causes values computed by compute_guest_tsc to diverge slightly across CPUs - note that the last_tsc_ns and last_tsc_write variable are used here, and now they last_tsc_ns will be different for each VCPU, reflecting the actual time of the update. However, compute_guest_tsc is used only for guests which already have TSC stability issues, and further, note that the previous patch has caused last_tsc_write to be incremented by the difference in nanoseconds, converted back into guest cycles. As such, only boundary rounding errors should be visible, which given the resolution in nanoseconds, is going to only be a few cycles and only visible in cross-CPU consistency tests. The problem can be fixed by adding a new set of variables to track the start offset and start write value for the current sync cycle.

| * KVM: Improve TSC offset matchingZachary Amsden2012-03-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are a few improvements that can be made to the TSC offset matching code. First, we don't need to call the 128-bit multiply (especially on a constant number), the code works much nicer to do computation in nanosecond units. Second, the way everything is setup with software TSC rate scaling, we currently have per-cpu rates. Obviously this isn't too desirable to use in practice, but if for some reason we do change the rate of all VCPUs at runtime, then reset the TSCs, we will only want to match offsets for VCPUs running at the same rate. Finally, for the case where we have an unstable host TSC, but rate scaling is being done in hardware, we should call the platform code to compute the TSC offset, so the math is reorganized to recompute the base instead, then transform the base into an offset using the existing API.

| * KVM: Infrastructure for software and hardware based TSC rate scalingZachary Amsden2012-03-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This requires some restructuring; rather than use 'virtual_tsc_khz' to indicate whether hardware rate scaling is in effect, we consider each VCPU to always have a virtual TSC rate. Instead, there is new logic above the vendor-specific hardware scaling that decides whether it is even necessary to use and updates all rate variables used by common code. This means we can simply query the virtual rate at any point, which is needed for software rate scaling. There is also now a threshold added to the TSC rate scaling; minor differences and variations of measured TSC rate can accidentally provoke rate scaling to be used when it is not needed. Instead, we have a tolerance variable called tsc_tolerance_ppm, which is the maximum variation from user requested rate at which scaling will be used. The default is 250ppm, which is the half the threshold for NTP adjustment, allowing for some hardware variation. In the event that hardware rate scaling is not available, we can kludge a bit by forcing TSC catchup to turn on when a faster than hardware speed has been requested, but there is nothing available yet for the reverse case; this requires a trap and emulate software implementation for RDTSC, which is still forthcoming.

| * KVM: SVM: Add support for AMD's OSVW feature in guestsBoris Ostrovsky2012-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In some cases guests should not provide workarounds for errata even when the physical processor is affected. For example, because of erratum 400 on family 10h processors a Linux guest will read an MSR (resulting in VMEXIT) before going to idle in order to avoid getting stuck in a non-C0 state. This is not necessary: HLT and IO instructions are intercepted and therefore there is no reason for erratum 400 workaround in the guest. This patch allows us to present a guest with certain errata as fixed, regardless of the state of actual hardware.

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While various modules include <asm/i387.h> to get access to things we actually *intend* for them to use, most of that header file was really pretty low-level internal stuff that we really don't want to expose to others. So split the header file into two: the small exported interfaces remain in <asm/i387.h>, while the internal definitions that are only used by core architecture code are now in <asm/fpu-internal.h>. The guiding principle for this was to expose functions that we export to modules, and leave them in <asm/i387.h>, while stuff that is used by task switching or was marked GPL-only is in <asm/fpu-internal.h>. The fpu-internal.h file could be further split up too, especially since arch/x86/kvm/ uses some of the remaining stuff for its module. But that kvm usage should probably be abstracted out a bit, and at least now the internal FPU accessor functions are much more contained. Even if it isn't perhaps as contained as it _could_ be.

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It turned out that a performance counter on AMD does not count at all when the GO or HO bit is set in the control register and SVM is disabled in EFER. This patch works around this issue by masking out the HO bit in the performance counter control register when SVM is not enabled. The GO bit is not touched because it is only set when the user wants to count in guest-mode only. So when SVM is disabled the counter should not run at all and the not-counting is the intended behaviour.

| * i387: move TS_USEDFPU flag from thread_info to task_structLinus Torvalds2012-02-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This moves the bit that indicates whether a thread has ownership of the FPU from the TS_USEDFPU bit in thread_info->status to a word of its own (called 'has_fpu') in task_struct->thread.has_fpu. This fixes two independent bugs at the same time: - changing 'thread_info->status' from the scheduler causes nasty problems for the other users of that variable, since it is defined to be thread-synchronous (that's what the "TS_" part of the naming was supposed to indicate). So perfectly valid code could (and did) do ti->status |= TS_RESTORE_SIGMASK; and the compiler was free to do that as separate load, or and store instructions. Which can cause problems with preemption, since a task switch could happen in between, and change the TS_USEDFPU bit. The change to TS_USEDFPU would be overwritten by the final store. In practice, this seldom happened, though, because the 'status' field was seldom used more than once, so gcc would generally tend to generate code that used a read-modify-write instruction and thus happened to avoid this problem - RMW instructions are naturally low fat and preemption-safe. - On x86-32, the current_thread_info() pointer would, during interrupts and softirqs, point to a *copy* of the real thread_info, because x86-32 uses %esp to calculate the thread_info address, and thus the separate irq (and softirq) stacks would cause these kinds of odd thread_info copy aliases. This is normally not a problem, since interrupts aren't supposed to look at thread information anyway (what thread is running at interrupt time really isn't very well-defined), but it confused the heck out of irq_fpu_usable() and the code that tried to squirrel away the FPU state. (It also caused untold confusion for us poor kernel developers). It also turns out that using 'task_struct' is actually much more natural for most of the call sites that care about the FPU state, since they tend to work with the task struct for other reasons anyway (ie scheduling). And the FPU data that we are going to save/restore is found there too. Thanks to Arjan Van De Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> for pointing us to the %esp issue.

| * i387: don't ever touch TS_USEDFPU directly, use helper functionsLinus Torvalds2012-02-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This creates three helper functions that do the TS_USEDFPU accesses, and makes everybody that used to do it by hand use those helpers instead. In addition, there's a couple of helper functions for the "change both CR0.TS and TS_USEDFPU at the same time" case, and the places that do that together have been changed to use those. That means that we have fewer random places that open-code this situation. The intent is partly to clarify the code without actually changing any semantics yet (since we clearly still have some hard to reproduce bug in this area), but also to make it much easier to use another approach entirely to caching the CR0.TS bit for software accesses. Right now we use a bit in the thread-info 'status' variable (this patch does not change that), but we might want to make it a full field of its own or even make it a per-cpu variable.

(depending on CPU vendor, MSR_EFER and cpuid) Because previous mentioned OSs may not engage corresponding syscall target-registers (STAR, LSTAR, CSTAR), they remain NULL and (non trapping) syscalls are leading to multiple faults and finally crashs.

It should also address the various misconceptions and confusions that surround jump labels. Typical usage scenarios: #include <linux/static_key.h> struct static_key key = STATIC_KEY_INIT_TRUE; if (static_key_false(&key)) do unlikely code else do likely code Or: if (static_key_true(&key)) do likely code else do unlikely code The static key is modified via: static_key_slow_inc(&key); ... static_key_slow_dec(&key); The 'slow' prefix makes it abundantly clear that this is an expensive operation. I've updated all in-kernel code to use this everywhere. Note that I (intentionally) have not pushed through the rename blindly through to the lowest levels: the actual jump-label patching arch facility should be named like that, so we want to decouple jump labels from the static-key facility a bit. On non-jump-label enabled architectures static keys default to likely()/unlikely() branches.
