Introducing paravirt_ops for x86_64

Introducing paravirt_ops for x86_64

[Glauber de Oliveira Costa]

Hi folks,

After some time away from it, and a big rebase as a consequence, here is
the updated version of paravirt_ops for x86_64, heading to inclusion.

Your criticism is of course, very welcome. 

Have fun

[PATCH 2/25] [PATCH] tlb flushing routines

[Glauber de Oliveira Costa]

This patch turns the flush_tlb routines into native versions.
In case paravirt is not defined, the natives are defined into
the actually used ones. flush_tlb_others() goes in smp.c, unless
we smp is not in the game

[PATCH 7/25] [PATCH] interrupt related native paravirt functions.

[Glauber de Oliveira Costa]

The interrupt initialization routine becomes native_init_IRQ and will
be overriden later in case paravirt is on.

The interrupt vector is made global, so paravirt guests can reference
it in their initializations. However, "interrupt" is such a common
name, and could lead to clashes, so it is renamed.

This patch switches the cli and sti instructions into macros.
In this header, they're just defined to the instructions they
refer to. Later on, when paravirt is defined, they will be
defined to something with paravirt abilities.

[PATCH 11/25] [PATCH] introduce paravirt_release_pgd()

[Glauber de Oliveira Costa]

This patch introduces a new macro/function that informs a paravirt
guest when its page table is not more in use, and can be released.
In case we're not paravirt, just do nothing.

[PATCH 12/25] [PATCH] native versions for set pagetables

[Glauber de Oliveira Costa]

This patch turns the set_p{te,md,ud,gd} functions into their
native_ versions. There is no need to patch any caller.

Also, it adds pte_update() and pte_update_defer() calls whenever
we modify a page table entry. This last part was coded to match
i386 as close as possible.

Pieces of the header are moved to below the #ifdef CONFIG_PARAVIRT
site, as they are users of the newly defined set_* macros.

[PATCH 13/25] [PATCH] turn msr.h functions into native versions

[Glauber de Oliveira Costa]

This patch turns makes the basic operations in msr.h out of native
ones. Those operations are: rdmsr, wrmsr, rdtsc, rdtscp, rdpmc, and
cpuid. After they are turned into functions, some call sites need
casts, and so we provide them.

There is also a fixup needed in the functions located in the vsyscall
area, as they cannot call any of them anymore (otherwise, the call
would go through a kernel address, invalid in userspace mapping).

The solution is to call the now-provided native_ versions instead.

[PATCH 13/25] [PATCH] turn msr.h functions into native versions

[Glauber de Oliveira Costa]

This patch turns makes the basic operations in msr.h out of native
ones. Those operations are: rdmsr, wrmsr, rdtsc, rdtscp, rdpmc, and
cpuid. After they are turned into functions, some call sites need
casts, and so we provide them.

There is also a fixup needed in the functions located in the vsyscall
area, as they cannot call any of them anymore (otherwise, the call
would go through a kernel address, invalid in userspace mapping).

The solution is to call the now-provided native_ versions instead.

[PATCH 14/25] [PATCH] add native functions for descriptors handling

[Glauber de Oliveira Costa]

This patch turns the basic descriptor handling into native_
functions. It is basically write_idt, load_idt, write_gdt,
load_gdt, set_ldt, store_tr, load_tls, and the ones
for updating a single entry.

In the process of doing that, we change the definition of
load_LDT_nolock, and caller sites have to be patched. We
also patch call sites that now needs a typecast.

[PATCH 14/25] [PATCH] add native functions for descriptors handling

[Glauber de Oliveira Costa]

This patch turns the basic descriptor handling into native_
functions. It is basically write_idt, load_idt, write_gdt,
load_gdt, set_ldt, store_tr, load_tls, and the ones
for updating a single entry.

In the process of doing that, we change the definition of
load_LDT_nolock, and caller sites have to be patched. We
also patch call sites that now needs a typecast.

Besides not elegant, it is now even forbidden, since it can
break paravirtualized guests. load_cr3 should call write_cr3()

[PATCH 18/25] [PATCH] turn priviled operations into macros in entry.S

[Glauber de Oliveira Costa]

With paravirt on, we cannot issue operations like swapgs, sysretq,
iretq, cli, sti. So they have to be changed into macros, that will
be later properly replaced for the paravirt case.

The sysretq is a little bit more complicated, and is replaced
by a sequence of three instructions. It is basically because if
we had already issued an swapgs, we would be with a user stack
at this point. So we do all-in-one.

The clobber list follows the idea of the i386 version closely,
and represents which registers are safe to modify at the
point the function is called.

[PATCH 19/25] [PATCH] time-related functions paravirt provisions

[Glauber de Oliveira Costa]

This patch add provisions for time related functions so they
can be later replaced by paravirt versions.

it basically encloses {g,s}et_wallclock inside the
already existent functions update_persistent_clock and
read_persistent_clock, and defines {s,g}et_wallclock
to the core of such functions.

The timer interrupt setup also have to be replaced.
The job is done by time_init_hook().

[PATCH 21/25] [PATCH] export cpu_gdt_descr

[Glauber de Oliveira Costa]

With paravirualization, hypervisors needs to handle the gdt,
that was right to this point only used at very early
inialization code. Hypervisors are commonly modules, so make
it an export

[PATCH 22/25] [PATCH] turn priviled operation into a macro

[Glauber de Oliveira Costa]

under paravirt, read cr2 cannot be issued directly anymore.
So wrap it in a macro, defined to the operation itself in case
paravirt is off, but to something else if we have paravirt
in the game

[PATCH 23/25] [PATCH] paravirt hooks for arch initialization

[Glauber de Oliveira Costa]

This patch add paravirtualization hooks in the arch initialization
process. paravirt_arch_setup() lets the guest issue any specific
initialization routine, and skip all the rest if it see fits, which
it signals by a proper return value.

In case the initialization continues, we hook at least memory_setup(),
so it can handle it in its own way.

The hypervisor can make its own  ebda mapping visible by providing
its custom ebda_info function.

[PATCH 24/25] [PATCH] provide paravirt patching function

[Glauber de Oliveira Costa]

This patch introduces apply_paravirt(), a function that shall
be called by i386/alternative.c to apply replacements to
paravirt_functions. It is defined to an do-nothing function
if paravirt is not enabled.

[PATCH 25/25] [PATCH] add paravirtualization support for x86_64

[Glauber de Oliveira Costa]

This is finally, the patch we were all looking for. This
patch adds a paravirt.h header with the definition of paravirt_ops
struct. Also, it defines a bunch of inline functions that will
replace, or hook, the other calls. Every one of those functions
adds an entry in the parainstructions section (see vmlinux.lds.S).
Those entries can then be used to runtime-patch the paravirt_ops
functions.

paravirt.c contains implementations of paravirt functions that
are used natively, such as the native_patch. It also fill the
paravirt_ops structure with the whole lot of functions that
were (re)defined throughout this patch set.

There are also changes in asm-offsets.c. paravirt.h needs it
to find out the offsets into the structure of functions
such as irq_enable, used in assembly files.

The text in Kconfig is the same as i386 one.

+ * Normally, a call to a pv_op function is a simple indirect call:
+ * (paravirt_ops.operations)(args...).
+ *
+ * Unfortunately, this is a relatively slow operation for modern CPUs,
+ * because it cannot necessarily determine what the destination
+ * address is.  In this case, the address is a runtime constant, so at
+ * the very least we can patch the call to be a simple direct call, or
+ * ideally, patch an inline implementation into the callsite.  (Direct
+ * calls are essentially free, because the call and return addresses
+ * are completely predictable.)
+ *
+ * All caller-save registers are expected expected to be modified
+ * (either clobbered or used for return values). They are the return
+ * value (rax), the arguments potentially used by the functions, (rdi, rsi,
+ * rdx, rcx), and the others caller-saved (r8-r11)
+ *
+ * The call instruction itself is marked by placing its start address
+ * and size into the .parainstructions section, so that
+ * apply_paravirt() in arch/i386/kernel/alternative.c can do the
+ * appropriate patching under the control of the backend paravirt_ops
+ * implementation.
+ *
+ * Unfortunately there's no way to get gcc to generate the args setup
+ * for the call, and then allow the call itself to be generated by an
+ * inline asm.  Because of this, we must do the complete arg setup and
+ * return value handling from within these macros.  This is fairly
+ * cumbersome.
+ *
+ * There are 5 sets of PVOP_* macros for dealing with 0-4 arguments.
+ * It could be extended to more arguments, but there would be little
+ * to be gained from that.  For each number of arguments, there are
+ * the two VCALL and CALL variants for void and non-void functions.
+ * Small structures are passed and returned in registers.  The macro
+ * calling convention can't directly deal with this, so the wrapper
+ * functions must do this.
+ *
+ * These PVOP_* macros are only defined within this header.  This
+ * means that all uses must be wrapped in inline functions.  This also

Re: [PATCH 25/25] [PATCH] add paravirtualization support for x86_64

[Andi Kleen]

This should be hidden and selected by the clients as needed
(I already did this change on i386) 

Users know nothing about paravirt, they just know about Xen, lguest
etc.

Strictly you would at least need a !X86_VSMP dependency, but
with the vsmp change i requested that will be unnecessary

Is this really synced with the latest version of the i386 code?

This will actually give corrupted BUGs because you don't supply
the full inline BUG header. Perhaps another trap would be better.

Definitely _GPL at least.

I doubt this needs to be inline and it's large

Have you investigated if a different input register generates better/smaller 
code? I would assume rdi to be usually used already for the caller's 
arguments so it will produce spilling

Similar for the rax return in the other functions.

This should be hidden and selected by the clients as needed
(I already did this change on i386) 

Users know nothing about paravirt, they just know about Xen, lguest
etc.

Strictly you would at least need a !X86_VSMP dependency, but
with the vsmp change i requested that will be unnecessary

Is this really synced with the latest version of the i386 code?

This will actually give corrupted BUGs because you don't supply
the full inline BUG header. Perhaps another trap would be better.

Have you investigated if a different input register generates better/smaller 
code? I would assume rdi to be usually used already for the caller's 
arguments so it will produce spilling

Similar for the rax return in the other functions.

Glauber started the paravirt ops 64 a second time around, from scratch
using the PVOPS of i386 as a base. But since we couldn't just take a the
PVOPS patch from i386 and apply it to x86_64, this was mainly done by
looking at i386 code and massaging it for x86_64. Somethings may have
slipped (and we may have been looking at different versions of PVOPS).
It's not easy trying to keep up with a moving target ;-)

delay.h is not needed anymore. Most of them, could be maybe moved to
paravirt.c , which is the one that really needs all the native_
things. Yeah, it will be better code this way, will change.

In a second look, i386 have such a function in io.h because they need
slow_down_io in a bunch of I/O instructions. It seems that we do not.

I don't think we can do different. These functions can be patched, and
if it happens, they will put their return value in rax. So we'd better
expect it there.
Same goes for rdi, as they will expect the value to be there as an input.

I don't think it will spill in the normal case, as rdi is already the
parameter. So the compiler will just leave it there, untouched.

We ended up making it EXPORT_SYMBOL in i386 because every driver wants
to save and restore interrupt state.

But questionably-licensed drivers might be less of a concern on x86-64.

Nvidia/ATI and other binary modules exist too and users will probably unhappy 
if they cannot run them anymore.

But at usually irq state changes should be patched in anyways and won't
need paravirt I guess? 

Hmm, actually thinking about it the module loader probably has no clue
that the relocation it linked will be overwritten so it'll check
for the export anyways.

So the alternatives would be to add ugly hacks to the module loader
or split paravirt_ops in "common" and "low level system" areas or 
export it as a normal export.

Not sure what's best. Ok using a normal export is easiest and not
that big an issue.

Yeah, there's also been talk of breaking up paravirt_ops into multiple
structs by area, which would lead naturally into finer-grained export
control.

The BUG handler will still report it as a normal illegal instruction. 
It should never happen; the main thing is that it clearly points out
where the problem is (as opposed to jumping to a NULL pointer and

Native cli/sti/save/restore_flags are all only assembly and can be easily
(in fact more easily than in C) written as pure assembler functions. Then
you can use whatever calling convention you want.

While some paravirt implementations may have more complicated implementations
i guess it's still a reasonable requirement to make them simple enough 
in pure assembler. If not they can use a trampoline, but that's hopefully
not needed.

I agree.
Should we make a paravirt_ops_asm.S file that can implement these native
funcions, and so we can get rid of the C functions only doing asm?

It works for lguest64.  I'm sure it should be no problem with other HVs.

Hm, I can't say the idea thrills me.  Lets get the thing working first,
and then worry about having special per-pvop calling conventions.

Is this still true with 64-bit?  Either way, I don't think its worth
having this here.  The damage to codegen around all those sites has
already happened, and the additional cost of a noop direct call is
pretty trivial.  I think this is a nanooptimisation which risks more
problems than it could possibly be worth.

No it is not. But it is just the comment that is broken. (I forgot to
update it). The case here, is that they put in rax what they receive
in rdi.

Of course, But the question rises from the context that they are both
together at the beginning. So they are not making anybody non-aligned.
Then the question: Why would putting it in the end be different to
putting them _together_, aligned at the beginning ?

Well, the point is that if you add new ones then alignment may be an
issue.  Putting them at the end (with a comment explaining why they're
there) will make it more robust.  Though splitting them into their own
sub-structure would probably be better.

Hm.  So x86-64 doesn't make 64-bit pointers be 64-bit aligned?

Glauber,

I was thinking of putting them at the end too, and that would make it all
work better. But I didn't mention it because I was in the mindset of "well
i386 has that there, we should too" :-(

yeah, it usually does. But it's one of those paranoid things, where you
want it to still work even if someone later on throws an
__attribute__((packed)) in on paravirt ops ;-)

The ABI does of course, although the penalty of not doing it on current
CPUs is only minor.

[PATCH 25/25] [PATCH] add paravirtualization support for x86_64

[Glauber de Oliveira Costa]

This is finally, the patch we were all looking for. This
patch adds a paravirt.h header with the definition of paravirt_ops
struct. Also, it defines a bunch of inline functions that will
replace, or hook, the other calls. Every one of those functions
adds an entry in the parainstructions section (see vmlinux.lds.S).
Those entries can then be used to runtime-patch the paravirt_ops
functions.

paravirt.c contains implementations of paravirt functions that
are used natively, such as the native_patch. It also fill the
paravirt_ops structure with the whole lot of functions that
were (re)defined throughout this patch set.

There are also changes in asm-offsets.c. paravirt.h needs it
to find out the offsets into the structure of functions
such as irq_enable, used in assembly files.

The text in Kconfig is the same as i386 one.

+         Paravirtualization is a way of running multiple instances of
+         Linux on the same machine, under a hypervisor.  This option
+         changes the kernel so it can modify itself when it is run
+         under a hypervisor, improving performance significantly.
+         However, when run without a hypervisor the kernel is
+         theoretically slower.  If in doubt, say N.

+ *
+ * Normally, a call to a pv_op function is a simple indirect call:
+ * (paravirt_ops.operations)(args...).
+ *
+ * Unfortunately, this is a relatively slow operation for modern CPUs,
+ * because it cannot necessarily determine what the destination
+ * address is.  In this case, the address is a runtime constant, so at
+ * the very least we can patch the call to be a simple direct call, or
+ * ideally, patch an inline implementation into the callsite.  (Direct
+ * calls are essentially free, because the call and return addresses
+ * are completely predictable.)
+ *
+ * All caller-save registers are expected expected to be modified
+ * (either clobbered or used for return values). They are the return
+ * value (rax), the arguments potentially used by the functions, (rdi, rsi,
+ * rdx, rcx), and the others caller-saved (r8-r11)
+ *
+ * The call instruction itself is marked by placing its start address
+ * and size into the .parainstructions section, so that
+ * apply_paravirt() in arch/i386/kernel/alternative.c can do the
+ * appropriate patching under the control of the backend paravirt_ops
+ * implementation.
+ *
+ * Unfortunately there's no way to get gcc to generate the args setup
+ * for the call, and then allow the call itself to be generated by an
+ * inline asm.  Because of this, we must do the complete arg setup and
+ * return value handling from within these macros.  This is fairly
+ * cumbersome.
+ *
+ * There are 5 sets of PVOP_* macros for dealing with 0-4 arguments.
+ * It could be extended to more arguments, but there would be little
+ * to be gained from that.  For each number of arguments, there are
+ * the two VCALL and CALL variants for void and non-void functions.
+ * Small structures are passed and returned in registers.  The macro
+ * calling convention can't directly deal with this, so the wrapper
+ * functions must do this.
+ *
+ * These PVOP_* macros are only defined within this header.  This
+ * means that all uses must be wrapped in inline functions.  This also
+ * makes sure the incoming and outgoing types are always correct.

[PATCH 24/25] [PATCH] provide paravirt patching function

[Glauber de Oliveira Costa]

This patch introduces apply_paravirt(), a function that shall
be called by i386/alternative.c to apply replacements to
paravirt_functions. It is defined to an do-nothing function
if paravirt is not enabled.

I guess it would be better to use the resources frame work here. 
Before checking EBDA check if it is already reserved. Then lguest/Xen
can reserve these areas and stop using it.

Sorry, but that's an extremly ugly and clumpsy interface and will lead
to extensive code duplication in hypervisors because so much code
is disabled.

This needs to be solved in some better way.

Let's make sure I understand: So you suggest skipping discover
altogether in case it is already reserved?

We can just wipe out the return value right now. Note that it was a
choice, it would only lead to code duplication if the hypervisor
wanted it. But yeah, I understand your concern. They may chose to
return 1 here just to change some tiny thing in the bottom.

I don't know exactly what other kinds of hooks we could put there.
lguest surely didn't need any. Are you okay with just turning it into
void by now ?

What's the EBDA actually used for?  The only place which seems to use
ebda_addr is in the e820 code to avoid that area as RAM.

Seems to me that we can just arrange to have the early lguest/xen setup
code set the EBDA_ADDR pointer to NULL and make discover_ebda() special
case that to zero out ebda_addr/size.

Yeah, it seems a bit hamfisted.  Looks like it would be better to deal
with it by some combination of:

   1. implement pv analogues of existing functions
   2. try to neutralize functions we don't care about in pv-land
   3. refactoring the setup() function to make the pv-friendly and
      pv-hostile parts clearly distinct

and remember: native isn't a special case; its just another pv driver.

Wouldn't it be better, then, to just skip this step unconditionally if
we are running a paravirtualized guest? What do we from doing it?

An EBDA is an optional BIOS feature so providing you virtualise the
relevant entry in the zero page (to avoid guest applications trying to
scan the EBDA for some system tables they may want to use like DMI) as
a zero entry you can ignore the EBDA.

That probably the right thing to do since the host EBDA won't match the
guest environment and the guest might migrate anyway

It's better to make discover_ebda() quietly cope with a missing ebda for
whatever reason.  We could add an explicit interface to paravirt_ops to
handle this one little corner, but it isn't very important, not very
general and really its just clutter.  Its much better to have things
cope with being virtualized quietly on their own rather than hit them
all with the pv_ops hammer.   pv_ops is really for things where the
hypervisor-specific code really has to get actively involved.

For Xen-domU and lguest, there probably won't be an ebda, but its quite
likely that it will be present in some form for vmware, kvm and
xen-dom0; in those cases the (presumably virtual) ebda will be put in
place as it would be in the native case, eliminating the need for any
special handling.

I think the idea you gave me earlier of using probe_kernel_address could
work. Xen/lguest/put_yours_here that won't use an ebda would then have 
to unmap the page, to make sure a read would fault.

Hm, the memory might be mapped anyway, but we could make sure its all
zero.  discover_ebda should be able to deal with that OK.

Indeed, as the EBDA_ADDR_POINTER is not aligned, this may work even better.

It seems to me safe to assume that if we read zero on that line:

ebda_addr = *(unsigned short *)__va(EBDA_ADDR_POINTER);

We could just do ebda_size = 0 and go home happy, skipping the rest of 
the process.

Andi, are you okay with it ?

Sure, but it should use probe_kernel_addr as well, just so that it will
be robust against having that page unmapped too.

It's better to make discover_ebda() quietly cope with a missing ebda for
whatever reason.  We could add an explicit interface to paravirt_ops to
handle this one little corner, but it isn't very important, not very
general and really its just clutter.  Its much better to have things

I guess it would be better to use the resources frame work here. 
Before checking EBDA check if it is already reserved. Then lguest/Xen
can reserve these areas and stop using it.

Sorry, but that's an extremly ugly and clumpsy interface and will lead
to extensive code duplication in hypervisors because so much code
is disabled.

This needs to be solved in some better way.

[PATCH 23/25] [PATCH] paravirt hooks for arch initialization

[Glauber de Oliveira Costa]

This patch add paravirtualization hooks in the arch initialization
process. paravirt_arch_setup() lets the guest issue any specific
initialization routine, and skip all the rest if it see fits, which
it signals by a proper return value.

In case the initialization continues, we hook at least memory_setup(),
so it can handle it in its own way.

The hypervisor can make its own  ebda mapping visible by providing
its custom ebda_info function.

In many of the CLBR_NONEs there are actually some registers free;
but it might be safer to keep it this way. But if some client can get 
significantly better code with one or two free registers it might 
be worthwhile to investigate.

The paravirt ops struct points to it.

The reason for this change is because of the added:
#ifdef CONFIG_PARAVIRT
	INTERRUPT_RETURN
ENTRY(native_iret)
#endif

If we are paravirt ops, we need the iretq in the exception table, not the
paravit ops function call.  Since that function call may simply call the
native_iretq, and if we take a fault at the iretq, it wont be in the
exception table.

Probably not, but this part of the code I don't fully understand. But just
doing this doesn't break lguest.  But perhaps it only did not break it yet

Who uses that code? NMIs and debug regs?  Lguest only has the host handle
the NMIs (doesn't pass to guest). And we haven't gotten to debug regs. Who
else uses that part of the code?

We can leave the "paranoid check" change out for this series.

I'm not sure I understand your question. You're asking who uses entry.S? 
Answer would be everybody. If you asked something else please reformulate.

When I said "this part of the code I don't fully understand" I was not
talking about entry.S.  I understand entry.S very well, but the comment
was originally on the paranoid_restore code. Which I thought had to deal
with NMIs and such that I didn't worry about that I simply did the
default.

If you were talking about the general iretq => INTERRUPT_RETURN, then the
answer is "Yes, they are sufficient". The first version of lguest ran the
guest kernel in ring 3 (using dual page tables for guest kernel and guest
user).  The current version I'm pushing runs lguest in ring 1, and the
entry.S code  worked for both.

Weird stack inbalance, i'm surprised that works. %6 must be doing strange
things.

This seems incredibly slow. Since GS changes are controlled in 
the kernel why don't you just cache them in the per cpu area? 
The only case where user can reload it is using segment
selector changes, which can be also handled.

Also why do you need the guest gs value anyways? 

You could just use your own stack and let the guest
switch to its own.

Heh, no it's very subtle. We do the "push %rsp" after the "push %2". So on
return from the call, the stack that was pushed, is really 8 bytes off.
Because we didn't save the stack pointer from the entry of the asm, we
saved it after doing that "push %2". :-)

We get back to this call via a retq from the HV switcher code. So that rsp
that was pushed will be the stack.

I did a swapgs here, so we have the HV GS value. I don't know of an easy
way to read the GS value to put it into the RSP.

>

Well, it is quite complex, since we can't save anything in the writable
section that the guest can't also write to. Remember, we are in ring 1 for
the guest kernel, so we have no protection. All the host related stuff is
in read only sections when we are using the guest cr3.

What I would like to do is have the GS point to the read only section, and
load the RSP from a value there. But first we need to store the old value
of RSP.  The problem is, where do you store it. Hmm, I guess I can create
my own "big" offset from the read only section :)

OK this gives me an idea, I *can* point the kernel GS to the vcpu read
only section, and have a way to store the value with the GS offset. The
read only section is always mapped before the read write section, so it
should be easy to calculate the diff!

Thanks for the comment, you guided me to this great idea!

Because it can't be trusted.  After the swapgs, we are pointing to the RW
section of the HV. But by running the guest kernel in ring 1, we have no
protection from the guest writing into that area too. So we can't put
anything in that section and expect it to be safe after jumping to guest
code.  The only trusted values, is jumping in after getting there by an
interrupt, where the hardware places the values onto the stack.

But with Andi's comments, I realized I can point the gs pointer to the
RO area. And make a constant offset that will point up into the RW area,
so we could save the stack and replace it.

If you were talking about the general iretq => INTERRUPT_RETURN, then the
answer is "Yes, they are sufficient". The first version of lguest ran the
guest kernel in ring 3 (using dual page tables for guest kernel and guest
user).  The current version I'm pushing runs lguest in ring 1, and the
entry.S code  worked for both.

The paranoid path is used for more than just NMIs; it's also used for MCEs,
stack faults, double faults or debug exceptions. Anything that might
happen with a invalid stack or unknown GS state or system in other unknown
state.

If you can guarantee your hypervisor never injects any of those it could be ignored; 
but at least losing debug exceptions would be probably not nice.

For now it does ignore them. But that's something to work on
for later versions of lguest64.  I want lguest out in the public and
working for the general case. I don't plan on ignoring the paranoid
section forever. But it's more on an anomaly for now. But you are right, I
want the debug stuff working. But I also need to walk before I can run ;-)

When I said "this part of the code I don't fully understand" I was not

was originally on the paranoid_restore code. Which I thought had to deal

Who uses that code? NMIs and debug regs?  Lguest only has the host handle
the NMIs (doesn't pass to guest). And we haven't gotten to debug regs. Who
else uses that part of the code?

We can leave the "paranoid check" change out for this series.

The paravirt ops struct points to it.

The reason for this change is because of the added:
#ifdef CONFIG_PARAVIRT
	INTERRUPT_RETURN
ENTRY(native_iret)
#endif

If we are paravirt ops, we need the iretq in the exception table, not the
paravit ops function call.  Since that function call may simply call the
native_iretq, and if we take a fault at the iretq, it wont be in the
exception table.

OK, bad name then. How about SWAPGS_UNTRUSTED_STACK?

From earlier in the file where SWAPGS_NOSTACK is declared we have:


/* Currently paravirt can't handle swapgs nicely when we
 * don't have a stack.  So we either find a way around these
 * or just fault and emulate if a guest tries to call swapgs

 *
 * Either way, this is a good way to document that we don't

 */
#define SWAPGS_NOSTACK		swapgs

Probably not, but this part of the code I don't fully understand. But just
doing this doesn't break lguest.  But perhaps it only did not break it yet
;-)

I don't think so. They are live here, but restore_args follows, so we

But they are not. Yeah, I ommited it in the changelog, (it is in a
comment at paravirt.h), should probably include. the CLBR_ defines
only accounts for the caller-saved registers.

Yeah, the other one is in i386 headers, so We probably wan't to leave
it there. One option is to move get_cycles_sync to x86_64 headers, and
then #ifdef just the offending part.

Although the operation consists in reading tscp. I choose this to be
consistent with i386, but I have no special feelings about it. I'm
okay with changing it if you prefer.

Yeah, the other one is in i386 headers, so We probably wan't to leave
it there. One option is to move get_cycles_sync to x86_64 headers, and
then #ifdef just the offending part.

[PATCH 12/25] [PATCH] native versions for set pagetables

[Glauber de Oliveira Costa]

This patch turns the set_p{te,md,ud,gd} functions into their
native_ versions. There is no need to patch any caller.

Also, it adds pte_update() and pte_update_defer() calls whenever
we modify a page table entry. This last part was coded to match
i386 as close as possible.

Pieces of the header are moved to below the #ifdef CONFIG_PARAVIRT
site, as they are users of the newly defined set_* macros.

[PATCH 11/25] [PATCH] introduce paravirt_release_pgd()

[Glauber de Oliveira Costa]

This patch introduces a new macro/function that informs a paravirt
guest when its page table is not more in use, and can be released.
In case we're not paravirt, just do nothing.

[PATCH 7/25] [PATCH] interrupt related native paravirt functions.

[Glauber de Oliveira Costa]

The interrupt initialization routine becomes native_init_IRQ and will
be overriden later in case paravirt is on.

The interrupt vector is made global, so paravirt guests can reference
it in their initializations. However, "interrupt" is such a common
name, and could lead to clashes, so it is renamed.

It would be better to have own functions for each debug register I think

?  A separate pvop for each?  Seems excessive.  And surely this should
be identical to 32bit either way.

Andi, you mean:
a) split the debugreg paravirt_ops in various
paravirt_ops.set/get_debugreg{X,Y,Z...}, and then join them together
in a set/get_debugreg(a,b) to keep the current interface. OR
b) keep one paravirt_ops for each set/get_debugreg, then split then in
various set/get_debugregX(a, b), changing the current interface, OR
c) plit the debugreg paravirt_ops in various
paravirt_ops.set/get_debugreg{X,Y,Z...}, and give each its own
function set/get_debugregX(a, b), again, changing the current
interface, OR
d) None of the above?

You should really turn the vsmp special case into a paravirt client first 
instead of complicating all this even more.

By "client" you mean a user of the paravirt interface?

Ohhh, I see. You're talking about just the first piece of code inside
the #ifdef CONFIG_PARAVIRT. In this case yes, I agree with you. It can
be done.

Looking at it more carefully, it turns out that those functions are
not eligible for being paravirt clients. They do no privileged
operation at all. In fact, all they do is bit manipulation.
That said, the code got a little bit cleaner by moving them down, and so I did.

But later on, you voiced concern about making CONFIG_PARAVIRT depend
on !VSMP. (and said it would be okay, because these functions would be
paravirt clients: but they won't) Given this updated picture, what's
your position about this?

Again, as they don't do anything besides bit manipulation, I don't
think they will stop VSMP from working with PARAVIRT.

[PATCH 2/25] [PATCH] tlb flushing routines

[Glauber de Oliveira Costa]

This patch turns the flush_tlb routines into native versions.
In case paravirt is not defined, the natives are defined into
the actually used ones. flush_tlb_others() goes in smp.c, unless
we smp is not in the game

Do you assume that the kernel ougtht to use 2MB pages for its mappings
(e.g. initilal text/data,  direct mapping of physical memory) under your
paravirt_ops?  As far as I look at the patches, I don't find one.

I don't think how it could be relevant here. lguest kernel does use
2MB pages, and it goes smootly. For 2MB pages, we will update the page
tables in the very same way, and in the very places we did before.
Just that the operations can now be overwritten.

So, unless I'm very wrong,  it only makes sense to talk about not
supporting large pages in the guest level. But it is not a
paravirt_ops problem.

Some MMU-related PV techiniques (including Xen, and direct paging mode
for Xen/KVM) need to write-protect page tables, avoiding to use 2MB
pages when mapping page tables. Looks like you did not, and that
exaplains why the patches are missing the relevant (many) paravirt_ops
in include/asm-x86_64/pgalloc.h, for example, compared with the i386
tree.

I see.

I'll address this in the next version of the patch.

At the moment Xen can't support guests with 2M pages.  In 32-bit this
isn't a huge problem, since the kernel doesn't assume it can map itself
with 2M pages.  But I think the 64-bit kernel assumes 2M pages are
always available for mapping the kernel.  I don't know how pervasive
this assumption is, but it would be nice to parameterize it in pv-ops.

I got 2M pages working in lguest64, but it was a cause of a lot of pain.
By removing support for 2M pages in guests, that might clean up a lot of
lguest64 shadow paging as well.

The only advantage I see for 2M pages or a guest, is that it saves the
guest from having extra page tables. The host still needs the map the 2M
to 4K, so it's not an advantage there. It doesn't speed anything up, so
I'd be all for scrapping 2M pages for guests.
