Vito said:
: The system has many usb disks coming and going day to day, with their
: respective bdi's having min_ratio set to 1 when inserted. It works for
: some time until eventually min_ratio can no longer be set, even when the
: active set of bdi's seen in /sys/class/bdi/*/min_ratio doesn't add up to
: anywhere near 100.
:
: This then leads to an unrelated starvation problem caused by write-heavy
: fuse mounts being used atop the usb disks, a problem the min_ratio setting
: at the underlying devices bdi effectively prevents.
Fix this leakage by resetting the bdi min_ratio when unregistering the
BDI.

If dmi_get_system_info() returns NULL, pch_phub_probe() will dereferencea

This:
vma->vm_pgoff & ~(huge_page_mask(h) >> PAGE_SHIFT)
is incorrect on 32-bit. It causes us to & the pgoff with something that
looks like this (for a 4m hugepage): 0xfff003ff. The mask should be
flipped and *then* shifted, to give you 0x0000_03fff.

If a semaphore array is removed and in parallel a sleeping task is woken
up (signal or timeout, does not matter), then the woken up task does not
wait until wake_up_sem_queue_do() is completed. This will cause crashes,
because wake_up_sem_queue_do() will read from a stale pointer.
The fix is simple: Regardless of anything, always call get_queue_result().
This function waits until wake_up_sem_queue_do() has finished it's task.

The commit f02e8a6 sorts symbols placing each of them in its own elf section.
The sorting and merging into the canonical sections are done by the linker.
Unfortunately modpost to generate Module.symvers file parses vmlinux
(already linked) and all modules object files (which aren't linked yet).
These aren't sanitized by the linker yet. That breaks modpost that can't
detect license properly for modules. This patch makes modpost aware of
the new exported symbols structure.

Userspace wants to manage module parameters with udev rules.
This currently only works for loaded modules, but not for
built-in ones.
To allow access to the built-in modules we need to
re-trigger all module load events that happened before any
userspace was running. We already do the same thing for all
devices, subsystems(buses) and drivers.
This adds the currently missing /sys/module/<name>/uevent files
to all module entries.

param_set_* may set uninitialized value to the paramerter. We should handle

IOMMU interrupt remapping support provides a further layer of
isolation for device assignment by preventing arbitrary interrupt
block DMA writes by a malicious guest from reaching the host. By
default, we should require that the platform provides interrupt
remapping support, with an opt-in mechanism for existing behavior.
Both AMD IOMMU and Intel VT-d2 hardware support interrupt
remapping, however we currently only have software support on
the Intel side. Users wishing to re-enable device assignment
when interrupt remapping is not supported on the platform can
use the "allow_unsafe_assigned_interrupts=1" module option.

Add tracepoints to trace mmio page fault
Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@cn.fujitsu.com>
Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
|
|
The idea is from Avi:
| We could cache the result of a miss in an spte by using a reserved bit, and
| checking the page fault error code (or seeing if we get an ept violation or
| ept misconfiguration), so if we get repeated mmio on a page, we don't need to
| search the slot list/tree.
| (https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/2/22/221)
When the page fault is caused by mmio, we cache the info in the shadow page
table, and also set the reserved bits in the shadow page table, so if the mmio
is caused again, we can quickly identify it and emulate it directly
Searching mmio gfn in memslots is heavy since we need to walk all memeslots, it
can be reduced by this feature, and also avoid walking guest page table for
soft mmu.

Introduce some interfaces to modify spte as linux kernel does:
- mmu_spte_clear_track_bits, it set the spte from present to nonpresent, and
track the stat bits(accessed/dirty) of spte
- mmu_spte_clear_no_track, the same as mmu_spte_clear_track_bits except
tracking the stat bits
- mmu_spte_set, set spte from nonpresent to present
- mmu_spte_update, only update the stat bits
Now, it does not allowed to set spte from present to present, later, we can
drop the atomicly opration for X86_32 host, and it is the preparing work to
get spte on X86_32 host out of the mmu lock

Introduce handle_abnormal_pfn to handle fault pfn on page fault path,
introduce mmu_invalid_pfn to handle fault pfn on prefetch path
It is the preparing work for mmio page fault support

If the page fault is caused by mmio, the gfn can not be found in memslots, and
'bad_pfn' is returned on gfn_to_hva path, so we can use 'bad_pfn' to identify
the mmio page fault.
And, to clarify the meaning of mmio pfn, we return fault page instead of bad
page when the gfn is not allowd to prefetch

The idea is from Avi:
| Maybe it's time to kill off bypass_guest_pf=1. It's not as effective as
| it used to be, since unsync pages always use shadow_trap_nonpresent_pte,
| and since we convert between the two nonpresent_ptes during sync and unsync.

Split kvm_mmu_free_page to kvm_mmu_isolate_page and
kvm_mmu_free_page
One is used to remove the page from cache under mmu lock and the other is
used to free page table out of mmu lock

If 'pt_write' is true, we need to emulate the fault. And in later patch, we
need to emulate the fault even though it is not a pt_write event, so rename
it to better fit the meaning
