2009-06-12lguest: clean up example launcher compile flags.Rusty Russell1-2/+1
18 months ago 5bbf89fc260830f3f58b331d946a16b39ad1ca2d changed to loading bzImages directly, and no longer manually ungzipping them, so we no longer need libz. Also, -m32 is useful for those on 64-bit platforms (and harmless on 32-bit). Reported-by: Ron Minnich <rminnich@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2009-06-12lguest: optimize by coding restore_flags and irq_enable in assembler.Rusty Russell3-30/+74
The downside of the last patch which made restore_flags and irq_enable check interrupts is that they are now too big to be patched directly into the callsites, so the C versions are always used. But the C versions go via PV_CALLEE_SAVE_REGS_THUNK which saves all the registers. In fact, we don't need any registers in the fast path, so we can do better than this if we actually code them in assembler. The results are in the noise, but since it's about the same amount of code, it's worth applying. 1GB Guest->Host: input(suppressed),output(suppressed) Before: Seconds: 0:16.53 Packets: 377268,753673 Interrupts: 22461,24297 Notifications: 1(5245),21303(732370) Net IRQs triggered: 377023(245),42578(711095) After: Seconds: 0:16.48 Packets: 377289,753673 Interrupts: 22281,24465 Notifications: 1(5245),21296(732377) Net IRQs triggered: 377060(229),42564(711109) Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2009-06-12lguest: improve interrupt handling, speed up stream networkingRusty Russell8-16/+43
lguest never checked for pending interrupts when enabling interrupts, and things still worked. However, it makes a significant difference to TCP performance, so it's time we fixed it by introducing a pending_irq flag and checking it on irq_restore and irq_enable. These two routines are now too big to patch into the 8/10 bytes patch space, so we drop that code. Note: The high latency on interrupt delivery had a very curious effect: once everything else was optimized, networking without GSO was faster than networking with GSO, since more interrupts were sent and hence a greater chance of one getting through to the Guest! Note2: (Almost) Closing the same loophole for iret doesn't have any measurable effect, so I'm leaving that patch for the moment.

2009-06-12lguest: fix race in halt codeRusty Russell3-12/+31
When the Guest does the LHCALL_HALT hypercall, we go to sleep, expecting that a timer or the Waker will wake_up_process() us. But we do it in a stupid way, leaving a classic missing wakeup race. So split maybe_do_interrupt() into interrupt_pending() and try_deliver_interrupt(), and check maybe_do_interrupt() and the "break_out" flag before calling schedule.

2009-06-12lguest: remove invalid interrupt forcing logic.Rusty Russell1-7/+1
20887611523e749d99cc7d64ff6c97d27529fbae (lguest: notify on empty) introduced lguest support for the VIRTIO_F_NOTIFY_ON_EMPTY flag, but in fact it turned on interrupts all the time. Because we always process one buffer at a time, the inflight count is always 0 when call trigger_irq and so we always ignore VRING_AVAIL_F_NO_INTERRUPT from the Guest. It should be looking to see if there are more buffers in the Guest's queue: if it's empty, then we force an interrupt. This makes little difference, since we usually have an empty queue; but that's the subject of another patch. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2009-06-12lguest: fix lguest wake on guest clock tick, or fd activityRusty Russell2-5/+5
The Launcher could be inside the Guest on another CPU; wake_up_process will do nothing because it is "running". kick_process will knock it back into our kernel in this case, otherwise we'll miss it until the next guest exit. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2009-06-12sched: export kick_processRusty Russell1-0/+1
lguest needs kick_process: wake_up_process() does nothing if a process is running, which isn't sufficient (we need it in the kernel). And lguest support is usually modular. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2009-06-12lguest: get more serious about wmb() in example Launcher codeRusty Russell1-3/+4
Since the Launcher process runs the Guest, it doesn't have to be very serious about its barriers: the Guest isn't running while we are (Guest is UP). Before we change to use threads to service devices, we need to fix this. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

2009-06-12lguest: cleanup passing of /dev/lguest fd around example launcher.Rusty Russell1-55/+47
We hand the /dev/lguest fd everywhere; it's far neater to just make it a global (it already is, in fact, hidden in the waker_fds struct). Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2009-06-12lguest: be paranoid about guest playing with device descriptors.Rusty Russell1-10/+17
We can't trust the values in the device descriptor table once the guest has booted, so keep local copies. They could set them to strange values then cause us to segv (they're 8 bit values, so they can't make our pointers go too wild). This becomes more important with the following patches which read them. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

2009-06-11nilfs2: get rid of bd_mount_sem use from nilfsRyusuke Konishi4-9/+12
This will remove every bd_mount_sem use in nilfs.

2009-06-11nilfs2: correct exclusion control in nilfs_remount functionRyusuke Konishi3-31/+33
nilfs_remount() changes mount state of a superblock instance. Even though nilfs accesses other superblock instances during mount or remount, the mount state was not properly protected in nilfs_remount(). Moreover, nilfs_remount() has a lock order reversal problem; nilfs_get_sb() holds: 1. bdev->bd_mount_sem 2. sb->s_umount (sget acquires) and nilfs_remount() holds: 1. sb->s_umount (locked by the caller in vfs) 2. bdev->bd_mount_sem To avoid these problems, this patch divides a semaphore protecting super block instances from nilfs->ns_sem, and applies it to the mount state protection in nilfs_remount(). With this change, bd_mount_sem use is removed from nilfs_remount() and the lock order reversal will be resolved. And the new rw-semaphore, nilfs->ns_super_sem will properly protect the mount state except the modification from nilfs_error function.

2009-06-11nilfs2: simplify remaining sget() useRyusuke Konishi4-25/+75
This simplifies the test function passed on the remaining sget() callsite in nilfs. Instead of checking mount type (i.e. ro-mount/rw-mount/snapshot mount) in the test function passed to sget(), this patch first looks up the nilfs_sb_info struct which the given mount type matches, and then acquires the super block instance holding the nilfs_sb_info.

2009-06-11nilfs2: get rid of sget use for acquiring nilfs objectRyusuke Konishi3-65/+76
This will change the way to obtain nilfs object in nilfs_get_sb() function. Previously, a preliminary sget() call was performed, and the nilfs object was acquired from a super block instance found by the sget() call. This patch, instead, instroduces a new dedicated function find_or_create_nilfs(); as the name implies, the function finds an existent nilfs object from a global list or creates a new one if no object is found on the device.
