[PATCH v2 0/4] KVM: kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log() fix and cleanup

[Takuya Yoshikawa]

This patch series is for making dirty logging development, and of course
maintenance, easier. Please see individual patches for details.

Changelog
  v1 -> v2:
    - rebased

[PATCH v2 2/4] KVM: ia64: cleanup kvm_ia64_sync_dirty_log()

[Takuya Yoshikawa]

kvm_ia64_sync_dirty_log() is a helper function for kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log()
which copies ia64's arch specific dirty bitmap to general one in memslot.
So doing sanity checks in this function is unnatural. We move these checks
outside of this and change the prototype appropriately.

[PATCH v2 1/4] KVM: ia64: fix dirty_log_lock spin_lock section not to include get_dirty_log()

[Takuya Yoshikawa]

kvm_get_dirty_log() calls copy_to_user(). So we need to narrow the
dirty_log_lock spin_lock section not to include this.

[PATCH v2 3/4] KVM: cleanup: remove kvm_get_dirty_log()

[Takuya Yoshikawa]

kvm_get_dirty_log() is a helper function for kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log() which
is currently used by ia64 and ppc and the following is what it is doing:

  - sanity checks
  - bitmap scan to check if the slot is dirty
  - copy_to_user()

Considering the fact that x86 is not using this anymore and sanity checks must
be done before kvm_ia64_sync_dirty_log(), we can say that this is not working
for code sharing effectively. So we just remove this.

Not introduced by this patch, but shouldn't this use rcu_dereference()?

I was thinking like that, but sorry I don't know well about ppc.

My final goal is to make everything except

   /* If nothing is dirty, don't bother messing with page tables. */

part arch independent, so that we can concentrate on the truely
dirty logging things in the future.

So, making ppc code same as x86, rcu_dereference() for example , really
helps me.


Do you like this approach?

Well yes, I expect that not using rcu_dereference() (and 
srcu_read_lock()) is a bug here.

Marcelo?

On a related note, I'd like to consolidate rcu locking:

- all vcpu ioctls take srcu_read_lock() when they start and drop it at 
the end.
- KVM_VCPU_RUN drops the lock when sleeping and entering the guest (also 
on context switch?)

No because slots_lock is held which serializes with memslot updates.

Right, I need to reread Documentation/kvm/locking.txt.

This patch plus 4/4 broke dirty bitmap updating on PPC. I didn't get around to track down why, but I figured you should now. Is there any way to get you a PPC development box? A simple G4 or G5 should be 200$ on ebay by now :).

I'm sorry, I thought this change was just trivial code transformation
and test for x86 would be OK: but not actually. Probably the reason is
around the timing of copy_to_user() and newly introduced clear_user()
for clean slot.

A simple G4 or G5, thanks for the info, I'll buy one.

I hope I can contribute a bit from there to kvm-ppc :).

The G4 is 32-bit while the G5 is 64-bit. But since the code paths are very similar on both, you'd be fine with a G4 too. I just checked again and apparently a 1.25Ghz G4 is ~100$ while a dual 1.8Ghz G5 is around 330$.

If it's too troublesome to acquire one yourself, I can also try to buy a notebook and bring it over for the KVM Forum.

I'm looking forward to tested patches :)

Best to revert these patches and re-apply when fixed.

Please revert. Sincerely sorry.

I'll fix as soon as possible and re-submit when test on PPC gets OK.

No problem, regressions happen all the time.  Lucky Alex caught it so 
quickly.

[PATCH v2 4/4] KVM: cleanup: make kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log() arch independent

[Takuya Yoshikawa]

kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log() is now implemented as arch dependent function.
But now that we know what is actually arch dependent, we can split this into
arch dependent part and arch independent part easily.
