Impact: fix lguest, clean up 32-bit lguest used used_vectors to record vectors, but that model of allocating vectors changed and got broken, after we changed vector allocation to a per_cpu array. Try enable that for 64bit, and the array is used for all vectors that are not managed by vector_irq per_cpu array. Also kill system_vectors[], that is now a duplication of the used_vectors bitmap.

2008-08-12lguest: use get_user_pages_fast() instead of get_user_pages()Rusty Russell
Using a simple page table thrashing program I measure a slight improvement. The program creates five processes. Each touches 1000 pages then schedules the next process. We repeat this 1000 times. As lguest only caches 4 cr3 values, this rebuilds a lot of shadow page tables requiring virt->phys mappings. Before: 5.93 seconds After: 5.40 seconds (Counts of slow vs fastpath in this usage are 6092 and 2852462 respectively.) And more importantly for lguest, the code is simpler.

2008-07-29lguest: Guest int3 fixRusty Russell
Ron Minnich noticed that guest userspace gets a GPF when it tries to int3: we need to copy the privilege level from the guest-supplied IDT to the real IDT. int3 is the only common case where guest userspace expects to invoke an interrupt, so that's the symptom of failing to do this.

2008-07-25virtio: Add transport feature handling stub for virtio_ring.Rusty Russell

2008-07-25virtio: Rename set_features to finalize_featuresRusty Russell
Rather than explicitly handing the features to the lower-level, we just hand the virtio_device and have it set the features. This make it clear that it has the chance to manipulate the features of the device at this point (and that all feature negotiation is already done).

2008-06-20x86: fix NULL pointer deref in __switch_toSuresh Siddha
I am able to reproduce the oops reported by Simon in __switch_to() with lguest. My debug showed that there is at least one lguest specific issue (which should be present in 2.6.25 and before aswell) and it got exposed with a kernel oops with the recent fpu dynamic allocation patches. In addition to the previous possible scenario (with fpu_counter), in the presence of lguest, it is possible that the cpu's TS bit it still set and the lguest launcher task's thread_info has TS_USEDFPU still set. This is because of the way the lguest launcher handling the guest's TS bit. (look at lguest_set_ts() in lguest_arch_run_guest()). This can result in a DNA fault while doing unlazy_fpu() in __switch_to(). This will end up causing a DNA fault in the context of new process thats getting context switched in (as opossed to handling DNA fault in the context of lguest launcher/helper process). This is wrong in both pre and post 2.6.25 kernels. In the recent 2.6.26-rc series, this is showing up as NULL pointer dereferences or sleeping function called from atomic context(__switch_to()), as we free and dynamically allocate the FPU context for the newly created threads. Older kernels might show some FPU corruption for processes running inside of lguest. With the appended patch, my test system is running for more than 50 mins now. So atleast some of your oops (hopefully all!) should get fixed. Please give it a try. I will spend more time with this fix tomorrow.

2008-05-30virtio: set device index in common code.Rusty Russell
Anthony Liguori points out that three different transports use the virtio code, but each one keeps its own counter to set the virtio_device's index field. In theory (though not in current practice) this means that names could be duplicated, and that risk grows as more transports are created. So we move the selection of the unique virtio_device.index into the common code in virtio.c, which has the side-benefit of removing duplicate code. The only complexity is that lguest and S/390 use the index to uniquely identify the device in case of catastrophic failure before register_virtio_device() is called: now we use the offset within the descriptor page as a unique identifier for the printks.

2008-05-27x86/paravirt: add pte_flags to just get pte flagsJeremy Fitzhardinge
Add pte_flags() to extract the flags from a pte. This is a special case of pte_val() which is only guaranteed to return the pte's flags correctly; the page number may be corrupted or missing. The intent is to allow paravirt implementations to return pte flags without having to do any translation of the page number (most notably, Xen).

2008-05-02lguest: avoid using NR_CPUS as a bounds check.Rusty Russell

2008-05-02virtio: explicit advertisement of driver featuresRusty Russell
A recent proposed feature addition to the virtio block driver revealed some flaws in the API: in particular, we assume that feature negotiation is complete once a driver's probe function returns. There is nothing in the API to require this, however, and even I didn't notice when it was violated. So instead, we require the driver to specify what features it supports in a table, we can then move the feature negotiation into the virtio core. The intersection of device and driver features are presented in a new 'features' bitmap in the struct virtio_device. Note that this highlights the difference between Linux unsigned-long bitmaps where each unsigned long is in native endian, and a straight-forward little-endian array of bytes. Drivers can still remove feature bits in their probe routine if they really have to. API changes: - dev->config->feature() no longer gets and acks a feature. - drivers should advertise their features in the 'feature_table' field - use virtio_has_feature() for extra sanity when checking feature bits Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

2008-03-11lguest: Revert 1ce70c4fac3c3954bd48c035f448793867592bc0, fix real problem.Rusty Russell
Ahmed managed to crash the Host in release_pgd(), which cannot be a Guest bug, and indeed it wasn't. The bug was that handing a 0 as the address of the toplevel page table being manipulated can cause the lookup code in find_pgdir() to return an uninitialized cache entry (we shadow up to 4 top level page tables for each Guest). Commit 37cc8d7f963ba2deec29c9b68716944516a3244f introduced this behaviour in the Guest, uncovering the bug. The patch which he submitted (which removed the /4 from the index calculation) simply ensured that these high-indexed entries hit the early exit path of guest_set_pmd(). But you get lots of segfaults in guest userspace as the PMDs aren't being updated. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

Also, Fabio Checconi pointed out that we should make sure we're not hitting the fixmap area. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: Robert Bragg <robert@sixbynine.org>

2008-02-04virtio: reset functionRusty Russell
A reset function solves three problems: 1) It allows us to renegotiate features, eg. if we want to upgrade a guest driver without rebooting the guest. 2) It gives us a clean way of shutting down virtqueues: after a reset, we know that the buffers won't be used by the host, and 3) It helps the guest recover from messed-up drivers. So we remove the ->shutdown hook, and the only way we now remove feature bits is via reset. We leave it to the driver to do the reset before it deletes queues: the balloon driver, for example, needs to chat to the host in its remove function.

2008-02-04virtio: explicit enable_cb/disable_cb rather than callback return.Rusty Russell
It seems that virtio_net wants to disable callbacks (interrupts) before calling netif_rx_schedule(), so we can't use the return value to do so. Rename "restart" to "cb_enable" and introduce "cb_disable" hook: callback now returns void, rather than a boolean. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-02-04virtio: simplify config mechanism.Rusty Russell
Previously we used a type/len pair within the config space, but this seems overkill. We now simply define a structure which represents the layout in the config space: the config space can now only be extended at the end. The main driver-visible changes: 1) We indicate what fields are present with an explicit feature bit. 2) Virtqueues are explicitly numbered, and not in the config space.
