2011-05-22KVM: Fix kvm mmu_notifier initialization orderOGAWA Hirofumi1-1/+1

2011-03-23kvm: stop including asm-generic/bitops/le.h directlyAkinobu Mita1-2/+1
asm-generic/bitops/le.h is only intended to be included directly from asm-generic/bitops/ext2-non-atomic.h or asm-generic/bitops/minix-le.h which implements generic ext2 or minix bit operations. This stops including asm-generic/bitops/le.h directly and use ext2 non-atomic bit operations instead. It seems odd to use ext2_set_bit() on kvm, but it will replaced with __set_bit_le() after introducing little endian bit operations for all architectures. This indirect step is necessary to maintain bisectability for some architectures which have their own little-endian bit operations.

2011-03-23KVM: Use syscore_ops instead of sysdev class and sysdevRafael J. Wysocki1-26/+8
KVM uses a sysdev class and a sysdev for executing kvm_suspend() after interrupts have been turned off on the boot CPU (during system suspend) and for executing kvm_resume() before turning on interrupts on the boot CPU (during system resume). However, since both of these functions ignore their arguments, the entire mechanism may be replaced with a struct syscore_ops object which is simpler. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2011-03-17KVM: Replace is_hwpoison_address with __get_user_pagesHuang Ying1-1/+10
is_hwpoison_address only checks whether the page table entry is hwpoisoned, regardless the memory page mapped. While __get_user_pages will check both. QEMU will clear the poisoned page table entry (via unmap/map) to make it possible to allocate a new memory page for the virtual address across guest rebooting. But it is also possible that the underlying memory page is kept poisoned even after the corresponding page table entry is cleared, that is, a new memory page can not be allocated. __get_user_pages can catch these situations.

2011-01-13thp: mmu_notifier_test_youngAndrea Arcangeli1-0/+17
For GRU and EPT, we need gup-fast to set referenced bit too (this is why it's correct to return 0 when shadow_access_mask is zero, it requires gup-fast to set the referenced bit). qemu-kvm access already sets the young bit in the pte if it isn't zero-copy, if it's zero copy or a shadow paging EPT minor fault we relay on gup-fast to signal the page is in use... We also need to check the young bits on the secondary pagetables for NPT and not nested shadow mmu as the data may never get accessed again by the primary pte. Without this closer accuracy, we'd have to remove the heuristic that avoids collapsing hugepages in hugepage virtual regions that have not even a single subpage in use. ->test_young is full backwards compatible with GRU and other usages that don't have young bits in pagetables set by the hardware and that should nuke the secondary mmu mappings when ->clear_flush_young runs just like EPT does. Removing the heuristic that checks the young bit in khugepaged/collapse_huge_page completely isn't so bad either probably but I thought it was worth it and this makes it reliable.

2011-01-12KVM: Don't spin on virt instruction faults during rebootAvi Kivity1-9/+4
Since vmx blocks INIT signals, we disable virtualization extensions during reboot. This leads to virtualization instructions faulting; we trap these faults and spin while the reboot continues. Unfortunately spinning on a non-preemptible kernel may block a task that reboot depends on; this causes the reboot to hang. Fix by skipping over the instruction and hoping for the best.

2011-01-12KVM: fast-path msi injection with irqfdMichael S. Tsirkin2-15/+83
Store irq routing table pointer in the irqfd object, and use that to inject MSI directly without bouncing out to a kernel thread. While we touch this structure, rearrange irqfd fields to make fastpath better packed for better cache utilization. This also adds some comments about locking rules and rcu usage in code. Some notes on the design: - Use pointer into the rt instead of copying an entry, to make it possible to use rcu, thus side-stepping locking complexities. We also save some memory this way. - Old workqueue code is still used for level irqs. I don't think we DTRT with level anyway, however, it seems easier to keep the code around as it has been thought through and debugged, and fix level later than rip out and re-instate it later.

Moreover, we no longer have to hold assigned_dev_lock while raising the guest IRQ, which can be a lenghty operation as we may have to iterate over all VCPUs.

2011-01-12KVM: use kmalloc() for small dirty bitmapsTakuya Yoshikawa1-3/+10
Currently we are using vmalloc() for all dirty bitmaps even if they are small enough, say less than K bytes.

2011-01-12KVM: pre-allocate one more dirty bitmap to avoid vmalloc()Takuya Yoshikawa1-2/+9
Currently x86's kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log() needs to allocate a bitmap by vmalloc() which will be used in the next logging and this has been causing bad effect to VGA and live-migration: vmalloc() consumes extra systime, triggers tlb flush, etc. This patch resolves this issue by pre-allocating one more bitmap and switching between two bitmaps during dirty logging. Performance improvement: I measured performance for the case of VGA update by trace-cmd. The result was 1.5 times faster than the original one. In the case of live migration, the improvement ratio depends on the workload and the guest memory size. In general, the larger the memory size is the more benefits we get. Note: This does not change other architectures's logic but the allocation size becomes twice. This will increase the actual memory consumption only when the new size changes the number of pages allocated by vmalloc().
