[PATCH 00/20] KVM updates for 2.6.23, part 2

[PATCH 00/20] KVM updates for 2.6.23, part 2

[Avi Kivity]

This is the second set of updates for the 2.6.23 merge window.  This time
around, the patchset includes the cpu hotplug fixes (which also make
suspend and resume robust in the presence of running virtual machines). Also
included are a few fixes and core updates.

Avi Kivity (11):
      KVM: VMX: Reinitialize the real-mode tss when entering real mode
      KVM: VMX: Remove unnecessary code in vmx_tlb_flush()
      KVM: Remove kvmfs in favor of the anonymous inodes source
      KVM: Clean up #includes
      HOTPLUG: Add CPU_DYING notifier
      HOTPLUG: Adapt cpuset hotplug callback to CPU_DYING
      HOTPLUG: Adapt thermal throttle to CPU_DYING
      SMP: Implement on_cpu()
      KVM: Keep track of which cpus have virtualization enabled
      KVM: Tune hotplug/suspend IPIs
      KVM: Use CPU_DYING for disabling virtualization

Eddie Dong (1):
      KVM: Add support for in-kernel pio handlers

Gregory Haskins (2):
      KVM: Adds support for in-kernel mmio handlers
      KVM: VMX: Fix interrupt checking on lightweight exit

Joerg Roedel (1):
      KVM: SVM: Reliably detect if SVM was disabled by BIOS

Luca Tettamanti (2):
      KVM: Fix x86 emulator writeback
      KVM: Avoid useless memory write when possible

Nitin A Kamble (2):
      KVM: Implement emulation of "pop reg" instruction (opcode 0x58-0x5f)
      KVM: Implement emulation of instruction "ret" (opcode 0xc3)

Shaohua Li (1):
      KVM: MMU: Fix Wrong tlb flush order

[PATCH 06/20] KVM: Fix x86 emulator writeback

[Avi Kivity]

From: Luca Tettamanti <kronos.it-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>

When the old value and new one are the same the emulator skips the
write; this is undesirable when the destination is a MMIO area and the
write shall be performed regardless of the previous value. This
optimization breaks e.g. a Linux guest APIC compiled without
X86_GOOD_APIC.

Remove the check and perform the writeback stage in the emulation unless
it's explicitly disabled (currently push and some 2 bytes instructions
may disable the writeback).

[PATCH 07/20] KVM: Avoid useless memory write when possible

[Avi Kivity]

From: Luca Tettamanti <kronos.it-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>

When writing to normal memory and the memory area is unchanged the write
can be safely skipped, avoiding the costly kvm_mmu_pte_write.

[PATCH 11/20] KVM: SVM: Reliably detect if SVM was disabled by BIOS

[Avi Kivity]

From: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel-5C7GfCeVMHo@public.gmane.org>

This patch adds an implementation to the svm is_disabled function to
detect reliably if the BIOS disabled the SVM feature in the CPU. This
fixes the issues with kernel panics when loading the kvm-amd module on
machines where SVM is available but disabled.

seems like we probably want this for 2.6.22... it fixes a panic that
I've seen actually reported by several users.  Is there any risk to
merging it?

i guess getting it into 2.6.22.1 would be OK too.

Well, there were reports of miscompiles with the original patch.  This 
one is hopefully fixed.  I'll wait a day or two and upstream it.

[PATCH 14/20] HOTPLUG: Add CPU_DYING notifier

[Avi Kivity]

KVM wants a notification when a cpu is about to die, so it can disable
hardware extensions, but at a time when user processes cannot be scheduled
on the cpu, so it doesn't try to use virtualization extensions after they
have been disabled.

This adds a CPU_DYING notification.  The notification is called in atomic
context on the doomed cpu.

[PATCH 17/20] SMP: Implement on_cpu()

[Avi Kivity]

This defines on_cpu() which is similar to smp_call_function_single()
except that it works if cpu happens to be the current cpu.  Can also be
seen as a complement to on_each_cpu() (which also doesn't treat the
current cpu specially).

Well, smp_call_function_single() is arch specific whereas on_cpu() is
generic code.  Perhaps rename smp_call_function_single() to
__smp_call_function_single() and on_cpu() to smp_call_function_single()?

I dislike the loss of symmetry though.

Do not meddle in the internals of kernels, for they are subtle and quick to panic.

The low level function checks for this anyways. Instead of erroring
it should just DTRT.

on_each_cpu() was imho always a mistake. It would have been better
to just fix smp_call_function() directly

If there are no objections, I will push it (split up) through my kvm updates patchset, as other kvm patches depend on it.  I will submit patches to other archs through the arch maintainers as kvm doesn't care about them yet.

Re: [PATCH 17/20] SMP: Implement on_cpu()

[Satyam Sharma]

Hi,

ISTR participating in a similar discussion some time back, but ...
anyway, I don't like the change in semantics of smp_call_function()
being proposed here *at* *all* ...

On 7/9/07, Avi Kivity <avi-atKUWr5tajBWk0Htik3J/w@public.gmane.org> wrote:

I like the patch being originally proposed here. For the sake of
correctness, it is _compulsory_ to wrap a get_cpu() / put_cpu()
pair around calls to smp_call_function{_single} in any case,
so it makes sense to provide a function that does this wrapping
in itself, to reduce likelihood of bugs and also get rid of open-coding.

[ In fact I don't like the fact that for the UP case you're simply
executing the function locally without even checking that the
cpu argument passed is indeed == 0. We had discussed this
previously and you did mention that cpu == 0 for !SMP is
assumed to be true, but I don't see what we lose by asserting
that "trivial assumption" either. ]

I'm not sure what you mean by "fix" here, but if you're proposing
that we change smp_call_function() semantics to _include_ the
current CPU (and just run the given function locally also along
with the others -- and hence get rid of on_each_cpu) then I'm sorry
but I'll have to *violently* disagree with that. Please remember that
the current CPU _must_ be treated specially in a whole *lot* of
usage scenarios ...

Take smp_send_stop() for instance. We need to send a suicide
function:

for (;;)
        halt();

to all _other_ CPUs *only* -- it would be *insane* to include ourselves
(current CPU, current thread) and just execute this suicide function
_locally_ *in current thread* too.

OTOH, there are plenty of situations where we actually _want_ to
get some function executed on *each* CPU (_including_ the current
local CPU that is executing that thread) -- naturally on_each_cpu()
would make sense for those cases.

Both have their purposes -- both must co-exist.

Take the same example here -- let's say we want to send a
"for (;;) ;" kind of function to a specified CPU. Now let's say
by the time we've called smp_call_function_single() on that
target CPU, we're preempted out and then get rescheduled
on the target CPU itself. There, we begin executing the
smp_call_function_single() (as modified by Avi here with your
proposed changed semantics) and notice that we've landed
on the target CPU itself, execute the suicidal function
_locally_ *in current thread* itself, and ... well, I hope you
get the picture.

So my opinion is to go with the get_cpu() / put_cpu() wrapper
Avi is proposing here and keep smp_call_function{_single}
semantics unchanged. [ Also please remember that for
*correctness*, preemption needs to be disabled by the
_caller_ of smp_call_function{_single} functions, doing so
inside them is insufficient. ]

I imagine that by "fix" Andi means also updating all callers.  Otherwise
he would just have said "break".

So you disable preemption before calling smp_call_function_single().

That's not correct.  kvm has two places where you can call the new
smp_call_function_single() (or on_cpu()) without disabling preemption. 
There are also a couple of existing places that don't need to disable
preemption with the new semantics (see mtrr_save_state(), do_cpuid(),  
_rdmsr_on_cpu(), all in arch/i386 for examples).  In fact I think more
places can take advantage of the new semantics than not.

But that's the point. How do you plan / intend to update
smp_send_stop()?

More importantly, what's wrong with it in the first place (to "fix")?

Which is what on_cpu() and which is why I like that.

And which is *not* what Andi's proposal (or your later patch
implementing that proposal) does, and which is why I *don't*
like that.

on_cpu() _is_ the wrapper that does the necessary get_cpu()
(i.e. preemption-disabling wrap over smp_call_function_single).

Obviously a caller of on_cpu() does not need to disable preemption.

[ This was w.r.t. existing smp_call_function{_single} semantics. ]

I presume you mean these are places where we just specify the CPU
to execute the function on, and don't really care if by that time we've
gone over to that CPU itself -- so the new semantics are fine too?
So these are places where you can use on_cpu(). But why change
existing semantics of smp_call_function_single is what I can't quite
understand, when there are perfectly legitimate usage cases where we
_don't_ want the function to get executed locally.

Well, I don't plan to do anything to smp_call_function().  I imagine you 
can add a flag, or compare smp_processor_id() to the cpu that's not 
stopping, or use smp_call_function_mask().

> More importantly, what's wrong with it in the first place (to "fix")?

If most use cases want to run a function on all cpus, they shouldn't 
need to open code it.

It does disable preemption.  Look more carefully.

Neither does the caller of the new smp_call_function_single().  Look at 
the code.

Most (all?) do.  And there's not harm done if they don't.  Look at the code.

Thanks, I wish smp_call_function_single() could be left alone as well,
different semantics of the two would be ugly and only breed confusion.

> I imagine you
> can add a flag, or compare smp_processor_id() to the cpu that's not

Ok, so what we (presently) have is:

1. smp_call_function() -> run given function on all *other* CPUs
2. on_each_cpu() -> run given function on _all_ CPUs

This is perfectly fine, and serves all possible use cases.

And I think what's proposed is:

1. Change smp_call_function() semantics, to run given function
on _all_ CPUs (thus getting rid of the on_each_cpu() "mistake")

2. Resort to (most probably implement another function?) using
smp_call_function_mask() or flags appropriately to also serve
the use cases where we need to run a given function on all
_other_ CPUs

Does this pointless/gratuitous code-churn really make sense?
Definitely not to me ...

[ For the _single() case we now have on_cpu() as you originally
proposed, which I definitely like and fills the other gap in the API. ]

So I still don't quite understand what is the need to change existing
semantics of smp_call_function{_single} in the first place.

We already have on_each_cpu() for precisely such usage. I don't see
what / why would someone be open-coding ...

But for a different reason. You've confused existing and the
proposed/new semantics of smp_call_function_single() here.

* Existing semantics:

Why is disabling preemption *compulsory* for correctness with
existing smp_call_function_single semantics?

Because we want to _detect_ (and WARN() + return error) for cases
when the _caller_ failed to disable preemption => by the time we
execute smp_call_function_single, we (current thread) could
actually have gone over to the target CPU (which is illegal with
existing semantics), so we need to check for that and warn.

Now, note that disabling preemption in smp_call_function{_single}
themselves is *insufficient*. We could be running on the target
CPU _already_ by the time we disable preemption inside those
functions. We'd end up finding this, WARN'ing about it, returning
an error -- all that could've been avoided if only the _caller_ had
the good sense to disable preemption _before_ calling smp_...()

So the *only* sane way (with existing semantics) to call the
smp_...() functions is to do that with preemption disabled in
the _caller_.

* Proposed semantics:

Here, we just don't care about what CPU we are on when we're
executing smp_call_function_single() -- if we're on the target
CPU, we'll just execute the function locally (in current thread
itself) else we'll fire off the IPI to get it executed on the target
CPU.

Of course, to make the decision above, we would need to have
a "if (current_cpu == target_cpu)" kind of check, and there's no
safe way to obtain "current_cpu" without disabling preemption --
so *that* is why the proposed code did the get_cpu() /
preemption-disabling inside smp_call_function_single().

As I said, that's because the caller wouldn't _care_ with the new
semantics.

Anyway, I don't really care enough about this (I'm not writing any code
that could get directly affected by all this) to continue objecting to the
proposed change. All I'm pointing out is just that it's unnecessary, and
I suspect nobody likes code churn just for the sake of it.

It's not proposed.  Andi mentioned it in passing.  The only churn is in

I imagine Andi's motivation was that most uses benefit from this change, 
and the rest don't suffer.  It's better not to have a proliferation of 
ever-so-similar APIs.

gcc + kvm + 64 bit ? confused :-/

[Benjamin Budts]

Hi all,

question...

I'm a bit confused using the -march=xxx options for gcc when using a 
kernel virtual machine...
Getting errors on smp when using the -march=nocoma for gcc... possibly 
because smp is not fully supported yet I suppse.

I guess my question is, when installing kvm, is the virtual machine 64 
bit capable or should I install 32 bit OS ?

I installed an amd64 debian image and it seems to be running 
fine...except for the problem mentioned above.

And what type of architecture do i have to mention with gcc in a kvm ? 
march ... arch...

The same as the host or generic cpu if you're not sure.

[PATCH 18/20] KVM: Keep track of which cpus have virtualization enabled

[Avi Kivity]

By keeping track of which cpus have virtualization enabled, we
prevent double-enable or double-disable during hotplug, which is a
very fatal oops.

[PATCH 19/20] KVM: Tune hotplug/suspend IPIs

[Avi Kivity]

The hotplug IPIs can be called from the cpu on which we are currently
running on, so use on_cpu().  Similarly, drop on_each_cpu() for the
suspend/resume callbacks, as we're in atomic context here and only one
cpu is up anyway.

[PATCH 20/20] KVM: Use CPU_DYING for disabling virtualization

[Avi Kivity]

Only at the CPU_DYING stage can we be sure that no user process will
be scheduled onto the cpu and oops when trying to use virtualization
extensions.
