* KVM: MMU: fix release noslot pfnXiao Guangrong2012-10-22
| | | | | | | | | | We can not directly call kvm_release_pfn_clean to release the pfn since we can meet noslot pfn which is used to cache mmio info into spte Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
* KVM: MMU: Optimize is_last_gpte()Avi Kivity2012-09-20
| | | | | | | | | Instead of branchy code depending on level, gpte.ps, and mmu configuration, prepare everything in a bitmap during mode changes and look it up during runtime. Reviewed-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
* KVM: MMU: Optimize pte permission checksAvi Kivity2012-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | walk_addr_generic() permission checks are a maze of branchy code, which is performed four times per lookup. It depends on the type of access, efer.nxe, cr0.wp, cr4.smep, and in the near future, cr4.smap. Optimize this away by precalculating all variants and storing them in a bitmap. The bitmap is recalculated when rarely-changing variables change (cr0, cr4) and is indexed by the often-changing variables (page fault error code, pte access permissions). The permission check is moved to the end of the loop, otherwise an SMEP fault could be reported as a false positive, when PDE.U=1 but PTE.U=0. Noted by Xiao Guangrong. The result is short, branch-free code. Reviewed-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
* KVM: MMU: Move gpte_access() out of paging_tmpl.hAvi Kivity2012-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | We no longer rely on paging_tmpl.h defines; so we can move the function to mmu.c. Rely on zero extension to 64 bits to get the correct nx behaviour. Reviewed-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
* KVM: MMU: Push clean gpte write protection out of gpte_access()Avi Kivity2012-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | gpte_access() computes the access permissions of a guest pte and also write-protects clean gptes. This is wrong when we are servicing a write fault (since we'll be setting the dirty bit momentarily) but correct when instantiating a speculative spte, or when servicing a read fault (since we'll want to trap a following write in order to set the dirty bit). It doesn't seem to hurt in practice, but in order to make the code readable, push the write protection out of gpte_access() and into a new protect_clean_gpte() which is called explicitly when needed.

This patch reverses the logic so that mmu_shrink() can free pages from the first VM whose n_used_mmu_pages is not zero. Note that we also add comments explaining the role of nr_to_scan which is not practically important now, hoping this will be improved in the future.

If the guest has more memslots, the situation will become worse. Furthermore, if the range does not include any pages in the guest's memory, the loop over the pages will just consume extra time. This patch, together with the following patches, solves this problem by introducing kvm_handle_hva_range() which makes the loop look like this: for each memslot for each page in memslot unmap using rmap In this new processing, the actual work is converted to a loop over rmap which is much more cache friendly than before.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the MMU's ->new_cr3() callback does nothing when guest paging is disabled or when two-dimentional paging (e.g. EPT on Intel) is active. This means that an emulated write to cr3 can be lost; kvm_set_cr3() will write vcpu-arch.cr3, but the GUEST_CR3 field in the VMCS will retain its old value and this is what the guest sees. This bug did not have any effect until now because: - with unrestricted guest, or with svm, we never emulate a mov cr3 instruction - without unrestricted guest, and with paging enabled, we also never emulate a mov cr3 instruction - without unrestricted guest, but with paging disabled, the guest's cr3 is ignored until the guest enables paging; at this point the value from arch.cr3 is loaded correctly my the mov cr0 instruction which turns on paging However, the patchset that enables big real mode causes us to emulate mov cr3 instructions in protected mode sometimes (when guest state is not virtualizable by vmx); this mov cr3 is effectively ignored and will crash the guest. The fix is to make nonpaging_new_cr3() call mmu_free_roots() to force a cr3 reload. This is awkward because now all the new_cr3 callbacks to the same thing, and because mmu_free_roots() is somewhat of an overkill; but fixing that is more complicated and will be done after this minimal fix. Observed in the Window XP 32-bit installer while bringing up secondary vcpus. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

| * KVM: MMU: do not iterate over all VMs in mmu_shrink()Gleb Natapov2012-06-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | mmu_shrink() needlessly iterates over all VMs even though it will not attempt to free mmu pages from more than one on them. Fix that and also check used mmu pages count outside of VM lock to skip inactive VMs faster. Signed-off-by: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

* KVM: MMU: Don't use RCU for lockless shadow walkingAvi Kivity2012-05-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Using RCU for lockless shadow walking can increase the amount of memory in use by the system, since RCU grace periods are unpredictable. We also have an unconditional write to a shared variable (reader_counter), which isn't good for scaling. Replace that with a scheme similar to x86's get_user_pages_fast(): disable interrupts during lockless shadow walk to force the freer (kvm_mmu_commit_zap_page()) to wait for the TLB flush IPI to find the processor with interrupts enabled. We also add a new vcpu->mode, READING_SHADOW_PAGE_TABLES, to prevent kvm_flush_remote_tlbs() from avoiding the IPI.

* KVM: MMU: Improve iteration through sptes from rmapTakuya Yoshikawa2012-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Iteration using rmap_next(), the actual body is pte_list_next(), is inefficient: every time we call it we start from checking whether rmap holds a single spte or points to a descriptor which links more sptes. In the case of shadow paging, this quadratic total iteration cost is a problem. Even for two dimensional paging, with EPT/NPT on, in which we almost always have a single mapping, the extra checks at the end of the iteration should be eliminated. This patch fixes this by introducing rmap_iterator which keeps the iteration context for the next search. Furthermore the implementation of rmap_next() is splitted into two functions, rmap_get_first() and rmap_get_next(), to avoid repeatedly checking whether the rmap being iterated on has only one spte. Although there seemed to be only a slight change for EPT/NPT, the actual improvement was significant: we observed that GET_DIRTY_LOG for 1GB dirty memory became 15% faster than before. This is probably because the new code is easy to make branch predictions. Note: we just remove pte_list_next() because we can think of parent_ptes as a reverse mapping.

* KVM: MMU: Make pte_list_desc fit cache lines wellTakuya Yoshikawa2012-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have PTE_LIST_EXT + 1 pointers in this structure and these 40/20 bytes do not fit cache lines well. Furthermore, some allocators may use 64/32-byte objects for the pte_list_desc cache. This patch solves this problem by changing PTE_LIST_EXT from 4 to 3. For shadow paging, the new size is still large enough to hold both the kernel and process mappings for usual anonymous pages. For file mappings, there may be a slight change in the cache usage. Note: with EPT/NPT we almost always have a single spte in each reverse mapping and we will not see any change by this.

* KVM: Avoid checking huge page mappings in get_dirty_log()Takuya Yoshikawa2012-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Dropped such mappings when we enabled dirty logging and we will never create new ones until we stop the logging. For this we introduce a new function which can be used to write protect a range of PT level pages: although we do not need to care about a range of pages at this point, the following patch will need this feature to optimize the write protection of many pages.
