| * lguest: suppress interrupts for single insn, not range.Rusty Russell2015-03-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The last patch reduced our interrupt-suppression region to one address, so simplify the code somewhat. Also, remove the obsolete undefined instruction ranges and the comment which refers to lguest_guest.S instead of head_32.S. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

* | x86/asm/entry/irq: Simplify interrupt dispatch table (IDT) layoutDenys Vlasenko2015-04-08

[push][jump 22] // 4 bytes [push][jump 18] // 4 bytes [push][jump 14] // 4 bytes [push][jump 10] // 4 bytes [push][jump 6] // 4 bytes [push][jump 2] // 4 bytes [push][jump common_interrupt][padding] // 8 bytes [push][jump] [push][jump] [push][jump] [push][jump] [push][jump] [push][jump] [push][jump common_interrupt][padding] [padding_2] common_interrupt: And there is a table which holds pointers to every entry point, IOW: to every push. In cold cache, two jumps are still costlier than one, even though we get the benefit of them residing in the same cacheline. This change replaces short jumps with near ones to 'common_interrupt', and pads every push+jump pair to 8 bytes. This way, each interrupt takes only one jump. This change replaces ".p2align CONFIG_X86_L1_CACHE_SHIFT" before dispatch table with ".align 8" - we do not need anything stronger than that. The table of entry addresses (the interrupt[] array) is no longer necessary, the address of entries can be easily calculated as (irq_entries_start + i*8). text data bss dec hex filename 12546 0 0 12546 3102 entry_64.o.before 11626 0 0 11626 2d6a entry_64.o The size decrease is because 1656 bytes of .init.rodata are gone. That's initdata, though. The resident size does go up a bit. Run-tested (32 and 64 bits).

* | x86/asm/entry: Add this_cpu_sp0() to read sp0 for the current cpuAndy Lutomirski2015-03-06
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We currently store references to the top of the kernel stack in multiple places: kernel_stack (with an offset) and init_tss.x86_tss.sp0 (no offset). The latter is defined by hardware and is a clean canonical way to find the top of the stack. Add an accessor so we can start using it. This needs minor paravirt tweaks. On native, sp0 defines the top of the kernel stack and is therefore always correct. On Xen and lguest, the hypervisor tracks the top of the stack, but we want to start reading sp0 in the kernel. Fixing this is simple: just update our local copy of sp0 as well as the hypervisor's copy on task switches.

* lguest: don't look in console features to find emerg_wr.Rusty Russell2015-02-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 1.0 spec clearly states that you must set the ACKNOWLEDGE and DRIVER status bits before accessing the feature bits. This is a problem for the early console code, which doesn't really want to acknowledge the device (the spec specifically excepts writing to the console's emerg_wr from the usual ordering constrains). Instead, we check that the *size* of the device configuration is sufficient to hold emerg_wr: at worst (if the device doesn't support the VIRTIO_CONSOLE_F_EMERG_WRITE feature), it will ignore the writes. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
* lguest: use the PCI console device's emerg_wr for early boot messages.Rusty Russell2015-02-11
| | | | | | | | | | | This involves manually checking the console device (which is always in slot 1 of bus 0) and using the window in VIRTIO_PCI_CAP_PCI_CFG to program it (as we can't map the BAR yet). We could in fact do this much earlier, but we wait for the first write from the virtio_cons_early_init() facility. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
* lguest: Override pcibios_enable_irq/pcibios_disable_irq to our stupid PICRusty Russell2015-02-11

* x86: Avoid building unused IRQ entry stubsJan Beulich2014-12-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When X86_LOCAL_APIC (i.e. unconditionally on x86-64), first_system_vector will never end up being higher than LOCAL_TIMER_VECTOR (0xef), and hence building stubs for vectors 0xef...0xff is pointlessly reducing code density. Deal with this at build time already. Taking into consideration that X86_64 implies X86_LOCAL_APIC, also simplify (and hence make easier to read and more consistent with the change done here) some #if-s in arch/x86/kernel/irqinit.c. While we could further improve the packing of the IRQ entry stubs (the four ones now left in the last set could be fit into the four padding bytes each of the final four sets have) this doesn't seem to provide any real benefit: Both irq_entries_start and common_interrupt getting cache line aligned, eliminating the 30th set would just produce 32 bytes of padding between the 29th and common_interrupt.

| * x86: Increase precision of x86_platform.get/set_wallclock()David Vrabel2013-05-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All the virtualized platforms (KVM, lguest and Xen) have persistent wallclocks that have more than one second of precision. read_persistent_wallclock() and update_persistent_wallclock() allow for nanosecond precision but their implementation on x86 with x86_platform.get/set_wallclock() only allows for one second precision. This means guests may see a wallclock time that is off by up to 1 second. Make set_wallclock() and get_wallclock() take a struct timespec parameter (which allows for nanosecond precision) so KVM and Xen guests may start with a more accurate wallclock time and a Xen dom0 can maintain a more accurate wallclock for guests.

* lguest: use a special 1:1 linear pagetable mode until first switch.Rusty Russell2011-07-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Host used to create some page tables for the Guest to use at the top of Guest memory; it would then tell the Guest where this was. In particular, it created linear mappings for 0 and 0xC0000000 addresses because lguest used to switch to its real page tables quite late in boot. However, since d50d8fe19 Linux initialized boot page tables in head_32.S even before the "are we lguest?" boot jump. So, now we can simplify things: the Host pagetable code assumes 1:1 linear mapping until it first calls the LHCALL_NEW_PGTABLE hypercall, which we now do before we reach C code. This also means that the Host doesn't need to know anything about the Guest's PAGE_OFFSET. (Non-Linux guests might not even have such a thing). Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

* lguest: populate initial_page_tableRusty Russell2010-12-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Two x86 patches broke lguest: 1) v2.6.35-492-g72d7c3b, which changed x86 to use the memblock allocator. In lguest, the host places linear page tables at the top of mem, which used to be enough to get us up to the swapper_pg_dir page tables. With the first patch, the direct mapping tables used that memory: Before: kernel direct mapping tables up to 4000000 @ 7000-1a000 After: kernel direct mapping tables up to 4000000 @ 3fed000-4000000 I initially fixed this by lying about the amount of memory we had, so the kernel wouldn't blatt the lguest boot pagetables (yuk!), but then... 2) v2.6.36-rc8-54-gb40827f, which made x86 boot use initial_page_table. This was initialized in a part of head_32.S which isn't executed by lguest; it is then copied into swapper_pg_dir. So we have to initialize it; and anyway we switch to it before we blatt the old tables, so that fixes the previous damage as well. For the moment, I cut & pasted the code into lguest's boot code, but next merge window I will merge them.

* lguest: restore boot speedRusty Russell2010-12-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | lguest is dumb and drops *all* the pagetables for set_pte (which is only used for kernel mapping manipulation, so it's OK without highmem). But it's used a lot in boot, too. As a guest optimization, we suppressed this flushing until the first page switch. Now we have initial_page_table, that happens much earlier, so extend the heuristic to wait until we switch to something other than the swapper_pg_dir or initial_page_table. As measured on my laptop under kvm, this dropped the time-to-mount-root from 48 seconds to 4.3 seconds. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

| * ACPI: delete the "acpi=ht" boot optionLen Brown2010-03-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | acpi=ht was important in 2003 -- before ACPI was universally deployed and enabled by default in the major Linux distributions. At that time, there were a fair number of people who or chose to, or needed to, run with acpi=off, yet also wanted access to Hyper-threading. Today we find that many invocations of "acpi=ht" are accidental, and thus is it possible that it is doing more harm than good. In 2.6.34, we warn on invocation of acpi=ht. In 2.6.35, we delete the boot option. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
* | lguest: stop using KVM hypercall mechanismRusty Russell2010-04-14
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a partial revert of 4cd8b5e2a159 "lguest: use KVM hypercalls"; we revert to using (just as questionable but more reliable) int $15 for hypercalls. I didn't revert the register mapping, so we still use the same calling convention as kvm. KVM in more recent incarnations stopped injecting a fault when a guest tried to use the VMCALL instruction from ring 1, so lguest under kvm fails to make hypercalls. It was nice to share code with our KVM cousins, but this was overreach.
