2008-07-16xen: add xen_arch_resume()/xen_timer_resume hook for ia64 supportIsaku Yamahata
add xen_timer_resume() hook. Timer resume should be done after event channel is resumed. add xen_arch_resume() hook when ipi becomes usable after resume. After resume, some cpu specific resource must be reinitialized on ia64 that can't be set by another cpu. However available hooks is run once on only one cpu so that ipi has to be used. During stop_machine_run() ipi can't be used because interrupt is masked. So add another hook after stop_machine_run(). Another approach might be use resume hook which is run by device_resume(). However device_resume() may be executed on suspend error recovery path. So it is necessary to determine whether it is executed on real resume path or error recovery path.

2008-06-25xen: add mechanism to extend existing multicallsJeremy Fitzhardinge
Some Xen hypercalls accept an array of operations to work on. In general this is because its more efficient for the hypercall to the work all at once rather than as separate hypercalls (even batched as a multicall). This patch adds a mechanism (xen_mc_extend_args()) to allocate more argument space to the last-issued multicall, in order to extend its argument list. The user of this mechanism is xen/mmu.c, which uses it to extend the args array of mmu_update. This is particularly valuable when doing the update for a large mprotect, which goes via ptep_modify_prot_commit(), but it also manages to batch updates to pgd/pmds as well.

2008-06-25xen: implement ptep_modify_prot_start/commitJeremy Fitzhardinge
Xen has a pte update function which will update a pte while preserving its accessed and dirty bits. This means that ptep_modify_prot_start() can be implemented as a simple read of the pte value. The hardware may update the pte in the meantime, but ptep_modify_prot_commit() updates it while preserving any changes that may have happened in the meantime. The updates in ptep_modify_prot_commit() are batched if we're currently in lazy mmu mode. The mmu_update hypercall can take a batch of updates to perform, but this code doesn't make particular use of that feature, in favour of using generic multicall batching to get them all into the hypervisor. The net effect of this is that each mprotect pte update turns from two expensive trap-and-emulate faults into they hypervisor into a single hypercall whose cost is amortized in a batched multicall.

2008-06-12common implementation of iterative div/modJeremy Fitzhardinge
We have a few instances of the open-coded iterative div/mod loop, used when we don't expcet the dividend to be much bigger than the divisor. Unfortunately modern gcc's have the tendency to strength "reduce" this into a full mod operation, which isn't necessarily any faster, and even if it were, doesn't exist if gcc implements it in libgcc. The workaround is to put a dummy asm statement in the loop to prevent gcc from performing the transformation. This patch creates a single implementation of this loop, and uses it to replace the open-coded versions I know about.

If we're using vcpu_info mapping, then make sure its restored on all processors before relasing them from stop_machine. The only complication is that if this fails, we can't continue because we've already made assumptions that the mapping is available (baked in calls to the _direct versions of the functions, for example). Fortunately this can only happen with a 32-bit hypervisor, which may possibly run out of mapping space. On a 64-bit hypervisor, this is a non-issue.

2008-06-02xen: avoid hypercalls when updating unpinned pud/pmdJeremy Fitzhardinge
When operating on an unpinned pagetable (ie, one under construction or destruction), it isn't necessary to use a hypercall to update a pud/pmd entry. Jan Beulich observed that a similar optimisation avoided many thousands of hypercalls while doing a kernel build. One tricky part is that early in the kernel boot there's no page structure, so we can't check to see if the page is pinned. In that case, we just always use the hypercall.

We crash on a benign-looking printk. The code around it got changed in -tip but checking those topic branches individually did not reproduce the bug. Bisection led to this commit: | d5edbc1f75420935b1ec7e65df10c8f81cea82de is first bad commit | commit d5edbc1f75420935b1ec7e65df10c8f81cea82de | Author: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org> | Date: Mon May 26 23:31:22 2008 +0100 | | xen: add p2m mfn_list_list Which is somewhat surprising, as on native hardware Xen client side should have little to no side-effects. After some head scratching, it turns out the following happened: randconfig enabled the following Xen options: CONFIG_XEN=y CONFIG_XEN_MAX_DOMAIN_MEMORY=8 # CONFIG_XEN_BLKDEV_FRONTEND is not set # CONFIG_XEN_NETDEV_FRONTEND is not set CONFIG_HVC_XEN=y # CONFIG_XEN_BALLOON is not set which activated this piece of code in arch/x86/xen/mmu.c: > @@ -69,6 +69,13 @@ > __attribute__((section(".data.page_aligned"))) = > { [ 0 ...

In this case the size of p2m_top_mfn_list is not page aligned: 80b8d000 b p2m_top_mfn 80b8f000 b p2m_top_mfn_list 80b8f008 b softirq_stack 80b97008 b hardirq_stack 80b9f008 b bm_pte So all subsequent variables get unaligned which, depending on luck, breaks the kernel in various funny ways. In this case what killed the kernel first was the misaligned bootmap pte page, resulting in that creative crash above. Anyway, this was a fun bug to track down :-) I think the moral is that .bss.page_aligned is a dangerous construct in its current form, and the symptoms of breakage are very non-trivial, so i think we need build-time checks to make sure all symbols in .bss.page_aligned are truly page aligned. The Xen fix below gets the kernel booting again. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-05-27xen: maintain clock offset over save/restoreJeremy Fitzhardinge
Hook into the device model to make sure that timekeeping's resume handler is called. This deals with our clocksource's non-monotonicity over the save/restore. Explicitly call clock_has_changed() to make sure that all the timers get retriggered properly.

2008-05-27xen: implement save/restoreJeremy Fitzhardinge
This patch implements Xen save/restore and migration. Saving is triggered via xenbus, which is polled in drivers/xen/manage.c. When a suspend request comes in, the kernel prepares itself for saving by: 1 - Freeze all processes. This is primarily to prevent any partially-completed pagetable updates from confusing the suspend process. If CONFIG_PREEMPT isn't defined, then this isn't necessary. 2 - Suspend xenbus and other devices 3 - Stop_machine, to make sure all the other vcpus are quiescent. The Xen tools require the domain to run its save off vcpu0. 4 - Within the stop_machine state, it pins any unpinned pgds (under construction or destruction), performs canonicalizes various other pieces of state (mostly converting mfns to pfns), and finally 5 - Suspend the domain Restore reverses the steps used to save the domain, ending when all the frozen processes are thawed.
