* KVM: Avoid guest virtual addresses in string pio userspace interfaceAvi Kivity2007-05-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current string pio interface communicates using guest virtual addresses, relying on userspace to translate addresses and to check permissions. This interface cannot fully support guest smp, as the check needs to take into account two pages at one in case an unaligned string transfer straddles a page boundary. Change the interface not to communicate guest addresses at all; instead use a buffer page (mmaped by userspace) and do transfers there. The kernel manages the virtual to physical translation and can perform the checks atomically by taking the appropriate locks. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
* KVM: Allow kernel to select size of mmap() bufferAvi Kivity2007-05-03
| | | | | | | | This allows us to store offsets in the kernel/user kvm_run area, and be sure that userspace has them mapped. As offsets can be outside the kvm_run struct, userspace has no way of knowing how much to mmap. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
* KVM: Add guest mode signal maskAvi Kivity2007-05-03
| | | | | | | | | Allow a special signal mask to be used while executing in guest mode. This allows signals to be used to interrupt a vcpu without requiring signal delivery to a userspace handler, which is quite expensive. Userspace still receives -EINTR and can get the signal via sigwait(). Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
* KVM: Add a special exit reason when exiting due to an interruptAvi Kivity2007-05-03
| | | | | | | | This is redundant, as we also return -EINTR from the ioctl, but it allows us to examine the exit_reason field on resume without seeing old data. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
* KVM: Fold kvm_run::exit_type into kvm_run::exit_reasonAvi Kivity2007-05-03
| | | | | | | | | Currently, userspace is told about the nature of the last exit from the guest using two fields, exit_type and exit_reason, where exit_type has just two enumerations (and no need for more). So fold exit_type into exit_reason, reducing the complexity of determining what really happened. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

* KVM: Handle cpuid in the kernel instead of punting to userspaceAvi Kivity2007-05-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | KVM used to handle cpuid by letting userspace decide what values to return to the guest. We now handle cpuid completely in the kernel. We still let userspace decide which values the guest will see by having userspace set up the value table beforehand (this is necessary to allow management software to set the cpu features to the least common denominator, so that live migration can work). The motivation for the change is that kvm kernel code can be impacted by cpuid features, for example the x86 emulator. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
* KVM: Do not communicate to userspace through cpu registers during PIOAvi Kivity2007-05-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently when passing the a PIO emulation request to userspace, we rely on userspace updating %rax (on 'in' instructions) and %rsi/%rdi/%rcx (on string instructions). This (a) requires two extra ioctls for getting and setting the registers and (b) is unfriendly to non-x86 archs, when they get kvm ports. So fix by doing the register fixups in the kernel and passing to userspace only an abstract description of the PIO to be done. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
* KVM: Use a shared page for kernel/user communication when runing a vcpuAvi Kivity2007-05-03
| | | | | | | | | Instead of passing a 'struct kvm_run' back and forth between the kernel and userspace, allocate a page and allow the user to mmap() it. This reduces needless copying and makes the interface expandable by providing lots of free space. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

* power management: force pm_ops.valid callback to be assignedJohannes Berg2007-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch changes the docs and behaviour from "all states valid" to "no states valid" if no .valid callback is assigned. Users of pm_ops that only need mem sleep can assign pm_valid_only_mem without any overhead, others will require more elaborate callbacks. Now that all users of pm_ops have a .valid callback this is a safe thing to do and prevents things from getting messy again as they were before.

* power management: implement pm_ops.valid for everybodyJohannes Berg2007-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Almost all users of pm_ops only support mem sleep, don't check in .valid and don't reject any others in .prepare so users can be confused if they check /sys/power/state, especially when new states are added (these would then result in s-t-r although they're supposed to be something different). This patch implements a generic pm_valid_only_mem function that is then exported for users and puts it to use in almost all existing pm_ops.

* rework pm_ops pm_disk_mode, kill misuseJohannes Berg2007-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch series cleans up some misconceptions about pm_ops. Some users of the pm_ops structure attempt to use it to stop the user from entering suspend to disk, this, however, is not possible since the user can always use "shutdown" in /sys/power/disk and then the pm_ops are never invoked. Also, platforms that don't support suspend to disk simply should not allow configuring SOFTWARE_SUSPEND (read the help text on it, it only selects suspend to disk and nothing else, all the other stuff depends on PM). The pm_ops structure is actually intended to provide a way to enter platform-defined sleep states (currently supported states are "standby" and "mem" (suspend to ram)) and additionally (if SOFTWARE_SUSPEND is configured) allows a platform to support a platform specific way to enter low-power mode once everything has been saved to disk. This is currently only used by ACPI (S4). This patch: The pm_ops.pm_disk_mode is used in totally bogus ways since nobody really seems to understand what it actually does. This patch clarifies the pm_disk_mode description. It also removes all the arm and sh users that think they can veto suspend to disk via pm_ops; not so since the user can always do echo shutdown > /sys/power/disk, they need to find a better way involving Kconfig or such. ACPI is the only user left with a non-zero pm_disk_mode. The patch also sets the default mode to shutdown again, but when a new pm_ops is registered its pm_disk_mode is selected as default, that way the default stays for ACPI where it is apparently required.

* Extend print_symbol capabilityRobert Peterson2007-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Today's print_symbol function dumps a kernel symbol with printk. This patch extends the functionality of kallsyms.c so that the symbol lookup function may be used without the printk. This is useful for modules that want to dump symbols elsewhere, for example, to debugfs. I intend to use the new function call in the GFS2 file system (which will be a separate patch).

However, currently we have issue to use the same bundle created for the first time with all flows covered by the case. It is useful for the bundle to have the upper layer information to be restructured correctly if it does not match with the flow. 1. Bundle was created by two policies Selector from another policy is added to xfrm_dst. If the flow does not match the selector, it goes to slow path to restructure new bundle by single policy. 2. Bundle was created by one policy Flow cache is added to xfrm_dst as originated one. If the flow does not match the cache, it goes to slow path to try searching another policy.

Perhaps the author had the opposite in mind but did the logic accidently wrong way around?

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | check_legacy_ioport makes only sense on PREP, CHRP and pSeries. They may have an isa node with PS/2, parport, floppy and serial ports. Remove the check_legacy_ioport call from ppc_md, it's not needed anymore. Hardware capabilities come from the device-tree.

| * | | [POWERPC] Prepare for splitting up mmu.h by MMU typeDavid Gibson2007-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently asm-powerpc/mmu.h has definitions for the 64-bit hash based MMU. If CONFIG_PPC64 is not set, it instead includes asm-ppc/mmu.h which contains a particularly horrible mess of #ifdefs giving the definitions for all the various 32-bit MMUs. It would be nice to have the low level definitions for each MMU type neatly in their own separate files. It would also be good to wean arch/powerpc off dependence on the old asm-ppc/mmu.h. This patch makes a start on such a cleanup by moving the definitions for the 64-bit hash MMU to their own file, asm-powerpc/mmu_hash64.h. Definitions for the other MMUs still all come from asm-ppc/mmu.h, however each MMU type can now be one-by-one moved over to their own file, in the process cleaning them up stripping them of cruft no longer necessary in arch/powerpc.
