      doc: fix broken references · 395cf969
      Paul Bolle 提交于
      There are numerous broken references to Documentation files (in other
      Documentation files, in comments, etc.). These broken references are
      caused by typo's in the references, and by renames or removals of the
      Documentation files. Some broken references are simply odd.
      
      Fix these broken references, sometimes by dropping the irrelevant text
      they were part of.

      xen: use maximum reservation to limit amount of usable RAM · d312ae87
      David Vrabel 提交于
      Use the domain's maximum reservation to limit the amount of extra RAM
      for the memory balloon. This reduces the size of the pages tables and
      the amount of reserved low memory (which defaults to about 1/32 of the
      total RAM).
      
      On a system with 8 GiB of RAM with the domain limited to 1 GiB the
      kernel reports:
      
      Before:
      
      Memory: 627792k/4472000k available
      
      After:
      
      Memory: 549740k/11132224k available
      
      A increase of about 76 MiB (~1.5% of the unused 7 GiB).  The reserved
      low memory is also reduced from 253 MiB to 32 MiB.  The total
      additional usable RAM is 329 MiB.
      
      For dom0, this requires at patch to Xen ('x86: use 'dom0_mem' to limit
      the number of pages for dom0') (c/s 23790)

      KVM: Fix instruction size issue in pvclock scaling · 3b217116
      Duncan Sands 提交于
      Commit de2d1a52 ("KVM: Fix register corruption in pvclock_scale_delta")
      introduced a mul instruction that may have only a memory operand; the
      assembler therefore cannot select the correct size:
      
         pvclock.s:229: Error: no instruction mnemonic suffix given and no register
      operands; can't size instruction
      
      In this example the assembler is:
      
               #APP
               mul -48(%rbp) ; shrd $32, %rdx, %rax
               #NO_APP
      
      A simple solution is to use mulq.

      xen/x86: replace order-based range checking of M2P table by linear one · ccbcdf7c
      Jan Beulich 提交于
      The order-based approach is not only less efficient (requiring a shift
      and a compare, typical generated code looking like this
      
      	mov	eax, [machine_to_phys_order]
      	mov	ecx, eax
      	shr	ebx, cl
      	test	ebx, ebx
      	jnz	...
      
      whereas a direct check requires just a compare, like in
      
      	cmp	ebx, [machine_to_phys_nr]
      	jae	...
      
      ), but also slightly dangerous in the 32-on-64 case - the element
      address calculation can wrap if the next power of two boundary is
      sufficiently far away from the actual upper limit of the table, and
      hence can result in user space addresses being accessed (with it being
      unknown what may actually be mapped there).
      
      Additionally, the elimination of the mistaken use of fls() here (should
      have been __fls()) fixes a latent issue on x86-64 that would trigger
      if the code was run on a system with memory extending beyond the 44-bit
      boundary.

      KVM: uses TASKSTATS, depends on NET · df3d8ae1
      Randy Dunlap 提交于
      CONFIG_TASKSTATS just had a change to use netlink, including
      a change to "depends on NET".  Since "select" does not follow
      dependencies, KVM also needs to depend on NET to prevent build
      errors when CONFIG_NET is not enabled.
      
      Sample of the reported "undefined reference" build errors:
      
      taskstats.c:(.text+0x8f686): undefined reference to `nla_put'
