* | KVM: Don't automatically expose the TSC deadline timer in cpuidJan Kiszka2011-12-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Unlike all of the other cpuid bits, the TSC deadline timer bit is set unconditionally, regardless of what userspace wants. This is broken in several ways: - if userspace doesn't use KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, and doesn't emulate the TSC deadline timer feature, a guest that uses the feature will break - live migration to older host kernels that don't support the TSC deadline timer will cause the feature to be pulled from under the guest's feet; breaking it - guests that are broken wrt the feature will fail. Fix by not enabling the feature automatically; instead report it to userspace. Because the feature depends on KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, which we cannot guarantee will be called, we expose it via a KVM_CAP_TSC_DEADLINE_TIMER and not KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID. Fixes the Illumos guest kernel, which uses the TSC deadline timer feature.

* | KVM: x86: Prevent starting PIT timers in the absence of irqchip supportJan Kiszka2011-12-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | User space may create the PIT and forgets about setting up the irqchips.

This is correct for dom0 but is not correct for guest domains. In order to boot a guest "pre-ballooned" (e.g. with memory=1G but maxmem=2G) in order to allow for future memory expansion the guest must derive max_pfn from the e820 provided by the toolstack and not the current maximum reservation (which can reflect only the current maximum, not the guest lifetime max). The existing algorithm already behaves this correctly if we do not artificially limit the maximum number of pages for the guest case.

* | x86, efi: Make efi_call_phys_{prelog,epilog} CONFIG_RELOCATABLE-awareMatt Fleming2011-12-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | efi_call_phys_prelog() sets up a 1:1 mapping of the physical address range in swapper_pg_dir. Instead of replacing then restoring entries in swapper_pg_dir we should be using initial_page_table which already contains the 1:1 mapping. It's safe to blindly switch back to swapper_pg_dir in the epilog because the physical EFI routines are only called before efi_enter_virtual_mode(), e.g. before any user processes have been forked. Therefore, we don't need to track which pgd was in %cr3 when we entered the prelog. The previous code actually contained a bug because it assumed that the kernel was loaded at a physical address within the first 8MB of ram, usually at 0x100000. However, this isn't the case with a CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y kernel which could have been loaded anywhere in the physical address space. Also delete the ancient (and bogus) comments about the page table being restored after the lock is released. There is no locking.

On CONFIG_X86_32 this is invalid, resulting in the following oops on some machines: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at f7f22280 IP: [<c10257b9>] reserve_ram_pages_type+0x89/0x210 [...] Call Trace: [<c104f8ca>] ? page_is_ram+0x1a/0x40 [<c1025aff>] reserve_memtype+0xdf/0x2f0 [<c1024dc9>] set_memory_uc+0x49/0xa0 [<c19334d0>] efi_enter_virtual_mode+0x1c2/0x3aa [<c19216d4>] start_kernel+0x291/0x2f2 [<c19211c7>] ? loglevel+0x1b/0x1b [<c19210bf>] i386_start_kernel+0xbf/0xc8 A better approach to this problem is to map the memory region with the correct attributes from the start, instead of modifying it after the fact. The uncached case can be handled by ioremap_nocache() and the cached by ioremap_cache(). Despite first impressions, it's not possible to use ioremap_cache() to map all cached memory regions on CONFIG_X86_64 because EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES_DATA regions really don't like being mapped into the vmalloc space, as detailed in the following bug report, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=748516 Therefore, we need to ensure that any EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES_DATA regions are covered by the direct kernel mapping table on CONFIG_X86_64. To accomplish this we now map E820_RESERVED_EFI regions via the direct kernel mapping with the initial call to init_memory_mapping() in setup_arch(), whereas previously these regions wouldn't be mapped if they were after the last E820_RAM region until efi_ioremap() was called. Doing it this way allows us to delete efi_ioremap() completely. Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com> Cc: H.

| * | x86, hpet: Immediately disable HPET timer 1 if rtc irq is maskedMark Langsdorf2011-12-08

When the system goes into suspend, the RTC driver sends a signal to the HPET driver so that the HPET releases control of irq8, allowing the RTC to wake the system from suspend. The switchover is accomplished by a write to the HPET configuration registers which currently only occurs while servicing the HPET interrupt. On some systems, I have seen the system suspend before an HPET interrupt occurs, preventing the write to the HPET configuration register and leaving the HPET in control of the irq8. As the HPET is not active during suspend, it does not generate a wake signal and RTC alarms do not work. This patch forces the HPET driver to immediately transfer control of the irq8 channel to the RTC instead of waiting until the next interrupt event.

* | | thp: add compound tail page _mapcount when mappedYouquan Song2011-12-09

But when I tried to use IOMMU 1GB pages in KVM, I encountered an oops and the 1GB page failed to be used. The root cause is that 1GB page allocation calls gup_huge_pud() while 2M page calls gup_huge_pmd. If compound pages are used and the page is a tail page, gup_huge_pmd() increases _mapcount to record tail page are mapped while gup_huge_pud does not do that. So when the mapped page is relesed, it will result in kernel oops because the page is not marked mapped. This patch add tail process for compound page in 1GB huge page which keeps the same process as 2M page. Reproduce like: 1. Add grub boot option: hugepagesz=1G hugepages=8 2. mount -t hugetlbfs -o pagesize=1G hugetlbfs /dev/hugepages 3. qemu-kvm -m 2048 -hda os-kvm.img -cpu kvm64 -smp 4 -mem-path /dev/hugepages -net none -device pci-assign,host=07:00.1 kernel BUG at mm/swap.c:114! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP Call Trace: put_page+0x15/0x37 kvm_release_pfn_clean+0x31/0x36 kvm_iommu_put_pages+0x94/0xb1 kvm_iommu_unmap_memslots+0x80/0xb6 kvm_assign_device+0xba/0x117 kvm_vm_ioctl_assigned_device+0x301/0xa47 kvm_vm_ioctl+0x36c/0x3a2 do_vfs_ioctl+0x49e/0x4e4 sys_ioctl+0x5a/0x7c system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b RIP put_compound_page+0xd4/0x168 Signed-off-by: Youquan Song <youquan.song@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Under a heavy loaded machine processing "fork()" calls could crash with: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at f573fc8c IP: [<c01abc54>] swap_count_continued+0x104/0x180 *pdpt = 000000002a3b9027 *pde = 0000000001bed067 *pte = 0000000000000000 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP Modules linked in: Pid: 1638, comm: apache2 Not tainted 3.0.4-linode37 #1 EIP: 0061:[<c01abc54>] EFLAGS: 00210246 CPU: 3 EIP is at swap_count_continued+0x104/0x180 .. snip..

Since we are running in batched mode (lazy) we don't actually set up the PTE mappings and the kmap_atomic is not done synchronously and ends up trying to dereference a page that has not been set. Looking at kmap_atomic_prot_pfn(), it uses 'arch_flush_lazy_mmu_mode' and doing the same in kmap_atomic_prot() and __kunmap_atomic() makes the problem go away. Interestingly, commit b8bcfe997e4615 ("x86/paravirt: remove lazy mode in interrupts") removed part of this to fix an interrupt issue - but it went to far and did not consider this scenario.

Here, to remove code from the cache completely, a second WBINVD instruction must be executed after the MTRRs have been disabled. This patch provides resolution for that. Ideally, I will like to make changes only for Pentium 4 and Xeon processors. But, I am not finding easier way to do it. And, extra wbinvd() instruction does not hurt much for other processors.

Unfortunately it introduced a regression: prior to that change we used to always set the mp_bus_not_pci bit, then clear it if we found a PCI bus. After it, we set mp_bus_not_pci for ISA buses, clear it for PCI buses, and leave it alone otherwise. In the cases of ISA and PCI, there's not much difference. But ISA is not the only non-PCI bus, so it's better to always set mp_bus_not_pci and clear it only for PCI. Without this change, Dan's Dell PowerEdge 4200 panics on boot with a log indicating interrupt routing trouble unless the "noapic" option is supplied. With this change, the machine boots reliably without "noapic".

Force LVT offset assignment in this case. If the OS assignment fails, fallback to BIOS settings and try to setup this. The fallback to BIOS settings weakens the family check since force_ibs_eilvt_setup() may fail e.g. in case of virtual machines. But setup may still succeed if BIOS offsets are correct. Other families don't have a workaround implemented that assigns LVT offsets. It's ok, to drop calling force_ibs_eilvt_setup() for that families. With the patch the [Firmware Bug] messages vanish.

We can solve this without losing any precision. We can decompose TSC into quotient and remainder of division by the scale factor, and then use this to convert TSC into nanoseconds.

* | | | x86: Fix boot failures on older AMD CPU'sLinus Torvalds2011-12-04

At that point we are *so* early in the booth that the exception tables haven't even been set up yet, so the whole rdmsr_safe(MSR_AMD64_PATCH_LEVEL, &c->microcode, &dummy); doesn't actually work: if the rdmsr does a GP fault (due to non-existant MSR register on older CPU's), we can't fix it up yet, and the boot fails. Fix it by simply moving the code to a slightly later point in the boot (init_amd() instead of early_init_amd()), since the kernel itself doesn't even really care about the microcode patchlevel at this point (or really ever: it's made available to user space in /proc/cpuinfo, and updated if you do a microcode load).

* | | | xen/pm_idle: Make pm_idle be default_idle under Xen.Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk2011-12-03

It disallows cpuidle_idle_call to be set to pm_idle (which is excellent). But in the select_idle_routine() and idle_setup(), the pm_idle can still be set to either: amd_e400_idle, mwait_idle or default_idle. This depends on some CPU flags (MWAIT) and in AMD case on the type of CPU. In case of mwait_idle we can hit some instances where the hypervisor (Amazon EC2 specifically) sets the MWAIT and we get: Brought up 2 CPUs invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 3.1.0-0.rc6.git0.3.fc16.x86_64 #1 RIP: e030:[<ffffffff81015d1d>] [<ffffffff81015d1d>] mwait_idle+0x6f/0xb4 ... Call Trace: [<ffffffff8100e2ed>] cpu_idle+0xae/0xe8 [<ffffffff8149ee78>] cpu_bringup_and_idle+0xe/0x10 RIP [<ffffffff81015d1d>] mwait_idle+0x6f/0xb4 RSP <ffff8801d28ddf10> In the case of amd_e400_idle we don't get so spectacular crashes, but we do end up making an MSR which is trapped in the hypervisor, and then follow it up with a yield hypercall. Meaning we end up going to hypervisor twice instead of just once. The previous behavior before v3.0 was that pm_idle was set to default_idle regardless of select_idle_routine/idle_setup. We want to do that, but only for one specific case: Xen. This patch does that.

When CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT is enabled, preempt_disable/enable() are traced and this causes the function_graph tracer to go into an infinite recursion. By open coding the preempt_disable() around the get_cpu_var(), we can use the notrace version which prevents preempt_disable/enable() from being traced and prevents the recursion.
