The current code will update the PPR on almost any APIC read; however that's only required if we read the PPR. kvm_update_ppr() shows up in some profiles, albeit with a low usage (~1%). This should reduce it further (it will still be called during interrupt processing). Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NMarcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>

Implementation of PV EOI using shared memory. This reduces the number of exits an interrupt causes as much as by half. The idea is simple: there's a bit, per APIC, in guest memory, that tells the guest that it does not need EOI. We set it before injecting an interrupt and clear before injecting a nested one. Guest tests it using a test and clear operation - this is necessary so that host can detect interrupt nesting - and if set, it can skip the EOI MSR. There's a new MSR to set the address of said register in guest memory. Otherwise not much changed: - Guest EOI is not required - Register is tested & ISR is automatically cleared on exit For testing results see description of previous patch 'kvm_para: guest side for eoi avoidance'.

We perform ISR lookups twice: during interrupt injection and on EOI. Typical workloads only have a single bit set there. So we can avoid ISR scans by 1. counting bits as we set/clear them in ISR 2. on set, caching the injected vector number 3. on clear, invalidating the cache The real purpose of this is enabling PV EOI which needs to quickly validate the vector. But non PV guests also benefit: with this patch, and without interrupt nesting, apic_find_highest_isr will always return immediately without scanning ISR. Signed-off-by: NMichael S.

The patch introduces a bitmap that will hold reasons apic should be checked during vmexit. This is in a preparation for vp eoi patch that will add one more check on vmexit. With the bitmap we can do if(apic_attention) to check everything simultaneously which will add zero overhead on the fast path.

Intel spec says that TMR needs to be set/cleared when IRR is set, but kvm also clears it on EOI. I did some tests on a real (AMD based) system, and I see same TMR values both before and after EOI, so I think it's a minor bug in kvm. This patch fixes TMR to be set/cleared on IRR set only as per spec. And now that we don't clear TMR, we can save an atomic read of TMR on EOI that's not propagated to ioapic, by checking whether ioapic needs a specific vector first and calculating the mode afterwards.

由 Zachary Amsden 提交于
This requires some restructuring; rather than use 'virtual_tsc_khz' to indicate whether hardware rate scaling is in effect, we consider each VCPU to always have a virtual TSC rate. Instead, there is new logic above the vendor-specific hardware scaling that decides whether it is even necessary to use and updates all rate variables used by common code. This means we can simply query the virtual rate at any point, which is needed for software rate scaling. There is also now a threshold added to the TSC rate scaling; minor differences and variations of measured TSC rate can accidentally provoke rate scaling to be used when it is not needed. Instead, we have a tolerance variable called tsc_tolerance_ppm, which is the maximum variation from user requested rate at which scaling will be used. The default is 250ppm, which is the half the threshold for NTP adjustment, allowing for some hardware variation. In the event that hardware rate scaling is not available, we can kludge a bit by forcing TSC catchup to turn on when a faster than hardware speed has been requested, but there is nothing available yet for the reverse case; this requires a trap and emulate software implementation for RDTSC, which is still forthcoming.

After an interrupt injection, the PPR changes, and we have to reflect that into the vapic. This causes a KVM_REQ_EVENT to be set, which causes the whole interrupt injection routine to be run again (harmlessly). Optimize by only setting KVM_REQ_EVENT if the ppr was lowered; otherwise there is no chance that a new injection is needed. Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

Instead of blindly attempting to inject an event before each guest entry, check for a possible event first in vcpu->requests. Sites that can trigger event injection are modified to set KVM_REQ_EVENT: - interrupt, nmi window opening - ppr updates - i8259 output changes - local apic irr changes - rflags updates - gif flag set - event set on exit This improves non-injecting entry performance, and sets the stage for non-atomic injection.

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

When we queue an interrupt to the local apic, we set the IRR before the TMR. The vcpu can pick up the IRR and inject the interrupt before setting the TMR, and perhaps even EOI it, causing incorrect behaviour. The race is really insignificant since it can only occur on the first interrupt (usually following interrupts will not change TMR), but it's better closed than open. Fixed by reordering setting the TMR vs IRR. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NMarcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>
