Hyper-V identifies vCPUs by Virtual Processor Index, which can be queried via HV_X64_MSR_VP_INDEX msr. It is defined by the spec as a sequential number which can't exceed the maximum number of vCPUs per VM. APIC ids can be sparse and thus aren't a valid replacement for VP indices. Current KVM uses its internal vcpu index as VP_INDEX. However, to make it predictable and persistent across VM migrations, the userspace has to control the value of VP_INDEX. This patch achieves that, by storing vp_index explicitly on vcpu, and allowing HV_X64_MSR_VP_INDEX to be set from the host side. For compatibility it's initialized to KVM vcpu index. Also a few variables are renamed to make clear distinction betweed this Hyper-V vp_index and KVM vcpu_id (== APIC id). Besides, a new capability, KVM_CAP_HYPERV_VP_INDEX, is added to allow the userspace to skip attempting msr writes where unsupported, to avoid spamming error logs.

Adds another flag bit (bit 2) to MSR_KVM_ASYNC_PF_EN. If bit 2 is 1, async page faults are delivered to L1 as #PF vmexits; if bit 2 is 0, kvm_can_do_async_pf returns 0 if in guest mode. This is similar to what svm.c wanted to do all along, but it is only enabled for Linux as L1 hypervisor. Foreign hypervisors must never receive async page faults as vmexits, because they'd probably be very confused about that.

There is a flaw in the Hyper-V SynIC implementation in KVM: when message page or event flags page is enabled by setting the corresponding msr, KVM zeroes it out. This is problematic because on migration the corresponding MSRs are loaded on the destination, so the content of those pages is lost. This went unnoticed so far because the only user of those pages was in-KVM hyperv synic timers, which could continue working despite that zeroing. Newer QEMU uses those pages for Hyper-V VMBus implementation, and zeroing them breaks the migration. Besides, in newer QEMU the content of those pages is fully managed by QEMU, so zeroing them is undesirable even when writing the MSRs from the guest side. To support this new scheme, introduce a new capability, KVM_CAP_HYPERV_SYNIC2, which, when enabled, makes sure that the synic pages aren't zeroed out in KVM.

The backwards_tsc_observed global introduced in commit 16a96021 is never reset to false. If a VM happens to be running while the host is suspended (a common source of the TSC jumping backwards), master clock will never be enabled again for any VM. In contrast, if no VM is running while the host is suspended, master clock is unaffected. This is inconsistent and unnecessarily strict. Let's track the backwards_tsc_observed variable separately and let each VM start with a clean slate. Real world impact: My Windows VMs get slower after my laptop undergoes a suspend/resume cycle. The only way to get the perf back is unloading and reloading the kvm module. Signed-off-by: NLadi Prosek <lprosek@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NRadim Krčmář <rkrcmar@redhat.com>

When RLIMIT_STACK is, for example, 256MB, the current code results in a gap between the top of the task and mmap_base of 256MB, failing to take into account the amount by which the stack address was randomized. In other words, the stack gets less than RLIMIT_STACK space. Ensure that the gap between the stack and mmap_base always takes stack randomization and the stack guard gap into account.

This adds support for compiling with a rough equivalent to the glibc _FORTIFY_SOURCE=1 feature, providing compile-time and runtime buffer overflow checks for string.h functions when the compiler determines the size of the source or destination buffer at compile-time. Unlike glibc, it covers buffer reads in addition to writes. GNU C __builtin_*_chk intrinsics are avoided because they would force a much more complex implementation. They aren't designed to detect read overflows and offer no real benefit when using an implementation based on inline checks. Inline checks don't add up to much code size and allow full use of the regular string intrinsics while avoiding the need for a bunch of _chk functions and per-arch assembly to avoid wrapper overhead. This detects various overflows at compile-time in various drivers and some non-x86 core kernel code. There will likely be issues caught in regular use at runtime too. Future improvements left out of initial implementation for simplicity, as it's all quite optional and can be done incrementally: * Some of the fortified string functions (strncpy, strcat), don't yet place a limit on reads from the source based on __builtin_object_size of the source buffer. * Extending coverage to more string functions like strlcat. * It should be possible to optionally use __builtin_object_size(x, 1) for some functions (C strings) to detect intra-object overflows (like glibc's _FORTIFY_SOURCE=2), but for now this takes the conservative approach to avoid likely compatibility issues. * The compile-time checks should be made available via a separate config option which can be enabled by default (or always enabled) once enough time has passed to get the issues it catches fixed. Kees said: "This is great to have. While it was out-of-tree code, it would have blocked at least CVE-2016-3858 from being exploitable (improper size argument to strlcpy()).

Split SOFTLOCKUP_DETECTOR from LOCKUP_DETECTOR, and split HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF from HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR. LOCKUP_DETECTOR implies the general boot, sysctl, and programming interfaces for the lockup detectors. An architecture that wants to use a hard lockup detector must define HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF or HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH. Alternatively an arch can define HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG, which provides the minimum arch_touch_nmi_watchdog, and it otherwise does its own thing and does not implement the LOCKUP_DETECTOR interfaces. sparc is unusual in that it has started to implement some of the interfaces, but not fully yet. It should probably be converted to a full HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH.

kvm master clock usually has a different frequency than the kernel boot clock. This is not a problem until the master clock is updated; update uses the current kernel boot clock to compute new kvm clock, which erases any kvm clock cycles that might have built up due to frequency difference over a long period. KVM_SET_CLOCK is one of places where we can safely update master clock as the guest-visible clock is going to be shifted anyway. The problem with current code is that it updates the kvm master clock after updating the offset. If the master clock was enabled before calling KVM_SET_CLOCK, then it might have built up a significant delta from kernel boot clock. In the worst case, the time set by userspace would be shifted by so much that it couldn't have been set at any point during KVM_SET_CLOCK. To fix this, move kvm_gen_update_masterclock() before computing kvmclock_offset, which means that the master clock and kernel boot clock will be sufficiently close together. Another solution would be to replace get_kvmclock_ns() with "ktime_get_boot_ns() + ka->kvmclock_offset", which is marginally more accurate, but would break symmetry with KVM_GET_CLOCK.

The ELF_ET_DYN_BASE position was originally intended to keep loaders away from ET_EXEC binaries. (For example, running "/lib/ld-linux.so.2 /bin/cat" might cause the subsequent load of /bin/cat into where the loader had been loaded.) With the advent of PIE (ET_DYN binaries with an INTERP Program Header), ELF_ET_DYN_BASE continued to be used since the kernel was only looking at ET_DYN. However, since ELF_ET_DYN_BASE is traditionally set at the top 1/3rd of the TASK_SIZE, a substantial portion of the address space is unused. For 32-bit tasks when RLIMIT_STACK is set to RLIM_INFINITY, programs are loaded above the mmap region. This means they can be made to collide (CVE-2017-1000370) or nearly collide (CVE-2017-1000371) with pathological stack regions. Lowering ELF_ET_DYN_BASE solves both by moving programs below the mmap region in all cases, and will now additionally avoid programs falling back to the mmap region by enforcing MAP_FIXED for program loads (i.e. if it would have collided with the stack, now it will fail to load instead of falling back to the mmap region). To allow for a lower ELF_ET_DYN_BASE, loaders (ET_DYN without INTERP) are loaded into the mmap region, leaving space available for either an ET_EXEC binary with a fixed location or PIE being loaded into mmap by the loader. Only PIE programs are loaded offset from ELF_ET_DYN_BASE, which means architectures can now safely lower their values without risk of loaders colliding with their subsequently loaded programs. For 64-bit, ELF_ET_DYN_BASE is best set to 4GB to allow runtimes to use the entire 32-bit address space for 32-bit pointers. Thanks to PaX Team, Daniel Micay, and Rik van Riel for inspiration and suggestions on how to implement this solution.

This moves the #ifdef in C code to a Kconfig dependency. Also we move the gigantic_page_supported() function to be arch specific. This allows architectures to conditionally enable runtime allocation of gigantic huge page. Architectures like ppc64 supports different gigantic huge page size (16G and 1G) based on the translation mode selected. This provides an opportunity for ppc64 to enable runtime allocation only w.r.t 1G hugepage. No functional change in this patch.

arch_add_memory gets for_device argument which then controls whether we want to create memblocks for created memory sections. Simplify the logic by telling whether we want memblocks directly rather than going through pointless negation. This also makes the api easier to understand because it is clear what we want rather than nothing telling for_device which can mean anything. This shouldn't introduce any functional change.

The current memory hotplug implementation relies on having all the struct pages associate with a zone/node during the physical hotplug phase (arch_add_memory->__add_pages->__add_section->__add_zone). In the vast majority of cases this means that they are added to ZONE_NORMAL. This has been so since 9d99aaa3 ("[PATCH] x86_64: Support memory hotadd without sparsemem") and it wasn't a big deal back then because movable onlining didn't exist yet. Much later memory hotplug wanted to (ab)use ZONE_MOVABLE for movable onlining 511c2aba ("mm, memory-hotplug: dynamic configure movable memory and portion memory") and then things got more complicated. Rather than reconsidering the zone association which was no longer needed (because the memory hotplug already depended on SPARSEMEM) a convoluted semantic of zone shifting has been developed. Only the currently last memblock or the one adjacent to the zone_movable can be onlined movable. This essentially means that the online type changes as the new memblocks are added. Let's simulate memory hot online manually $ echo 0x100000000 > /sys/devices/system/memory/probe $ grep . /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones Normal Movable $ echo $((0x100000000+(128<<20))) > /sys/devices/system/memory/probe $ grep . /sys/devices/system/memory/memory3?/valid_zones /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal /sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal Movable $ echo $((0x100000000+2*(128<<20))) > /sys/devices/system/memory/probe $ grep . /sys/devices/system/memory/memory3?/valid_zones /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal /sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal /sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/valid_zones:Normal Movable $ echo online_movable > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/state $ grep . /sys/devices/system/memory/memory3?/valid_zones /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal /sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/valid_zones:Movable Normal This is an awkward semantic because an udev event is sent as soon as the block is onlined and an udev handler might want to online it based on some policy (e.g. association with a node) but it will inherently race with new blocks showing up. This patch changes the physical online phase to not associate pages with any zone at all. All the pages are just marked reserved and wait for the onlining phase to be associated with the zone as per the online request. There are only two requirements - existing ZONE_NORMAL and ZONE_MOVABLE cannot overlap - ZONE_NORMAL precedes ZONE_MOVABLE in physical addresses the latter one is not an inherent requirement and can be changed in the future. It preserves the current behavior and made the code slightly simpler. This is subject to change in future. This means that the same physical online steps as above will lead to the following state: Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/valid_zones:Movable Implementation: The current move_pfn_range is reimplemented to check the above requirements (allow_online_pfn_range) and then updates the respective zone (move_pfn_range_to_zone), the pgdat and links all the pages in the pfn range with the zone/node. __add_pages is updated to not require the zone and only initializes sections in the range. This allowed to simplify the arch_add_memory code (s390 could get rid of quite some of code). devm_memremap_pages is the only user of arch_add_memory which relies on the zone association because it only hooks into the memory hotplug only half way. It uses it to associate the new memory with ZONE_DEVICE but doesn't allow it to be {on,off}lined via sysfs. This means that this particular code path has to call move_pfn_range_to_zone explicitly. The original zone shifting code is kept in place and will be removed in the follow up patch for an easier review. Please note that this patch also changes the original behavior when offlining a memory block adjacent to another zone (Normal vs. Movable) used to allow to change its movable type. This will be handled later.

Device memory hotplug hooks into regular memory hotplug only half way. It needs memory sections to track struct pages but there is no need/desire to associate those sections with memory blocks and export them to the userspace via sysfs because they cannot be onlined anyway. This is currently expressed by for_device argument to arch_add_memory which then makes sure to associate the given memory range with ZONE_DEVICE. register_new_memory then relies on is_zone_device_section to distinguish special memory hotplug from the regular one. While this works now, later patches in this series want to move __add_zone outside of arch_add_memory path so we have to come up with something else. Add want_memblock down the __add_pages path and use it to control whether the section->memblock association should be done. arch_add_memory then just trivially want memblock for everything but for_device hotplug. remove_memory_section doesn't need is_zone_device_section either. We can simply skip all the memblock specific cleanup if there is no memblock for the given section. This shouldn't introduce any functional change.

Patch series "THP swap: Delay splitting THP during swapping out", v11. This patchset is to optimize the performance of Transparent Huge Page (THP) swap. Recently, the performance of the storage devices improved so fast that we cannot saturate the disk bandwidth with single logical CPU when do page swap out even on a high-end server machine. Because the performance of the storage device improved faster than that of single logical CPU. And it seems that the trend will not change in the near future. On the other hand, the THP becomes more and more popular because of increased memory size. So it becomes necessary to optimize THP swap performance. The advantages of the THP swap support include: - Batch the swap operations for the THP to reduce lock acquiring/releasing, including allocating/freeing the swap space, adding/deleting to/from the swap cache, and writing/reading the swap space, etc. This will help improve the performance of the THP swap. - The THP swap space read/write will be 2M sequential IO. It is particularly helpful for the swap read, which are usually 4k random IO. This will improve the performance of the THP swap too. - It will help the memory fragmentation, especially when the THP is heavily used by the applications. The 2M continuous pages will be free up after THP swapping out. - It will improve the THP utilization on the system with the swap turned on. Because the speed for khugepaged to collapse the normal pages into the THP is quite slow. After the THP is split during the swapping out, it will take quite long time for the normal pages to collapse back into the THP after being swapped in. The high THP utilization helps the efficiency of the page based memory management too. There are some concerns regarding THP swap in, mainly because possible enlarged read/write IO size (for swap in/out) may put more overhead on the storage device. To deal with that, the THP swap in should be turned on only when necessary. For example, it can be selected via "always/never/madvise" logic, to be turned on globally, turned off globally, or turned on only for VMA with MADV_HUGEPAGE, etc. This patchset is the first step for the THP swap support. The plan is to delay splitting THP step by step, finally avoid splitting THP during the THP swapping out and swap out/in the THP as a whole. As the first step, in this patchset, the splitting huge page is delayed from almost the first step of swapping out to after allocating the swap space for the THP and adding the THP into the swap cache. This will reduce lock acquiring/releasing for the locks used for the swap cache management. With the patchset, the swap out throughput improves 15.5% (from about 3.73GB/s to about 4.31GB/s) in the vm-scalability swap-w-seq test case with 8 processes. The test is done on a Xeon E5 v3 system. The swap device used is a RAM simulated PMEM (persistent memory) device. To test the sequential swapping out, the test case creates 8 processes, which sequentially allocate and write to the anonymous pages until the RAM and part of the swap device is used up. This patch (of 5): In this patch, splitting huge page is delayed from almost the first step of swapping out to after allocating the swap space for the THP (Transparent Huge Page) and adding the THP into the swap cache. This will batch the corresponding operation, thus improve THP swap out throughput. This is the first step for the THP swap optimization. The plan is to delay splitting the THP step by step and avoid splitting the THP finally. In this patch, one swap cluster is used to hold the contents of each THP swapped out. So, the size of the swap cluster is changed to that of the THP (Transparent Huge Page) on x86_64 architecture (512). For other architectures which want such THP swap optimization, ARCH_USES_THP_SWAP_CLUSTER needs to be selected in the Kconfig file for the architecture. In effect, this will enlarge swap cluster size by 2 times on x86_64. Which may make it harder to find a free cluster when the swap space becomes fragmented. So that, this may reduce the continuous swap space allocation and sequential write in theory. The performance test in 0day shows no regressions caused by this. In the future of THP swap optimization, some information of the swapped out THP (such as compound map count) will be recorded in the swap_cluster_info data structure. The mem cgroup swap accounting functions are enhanced to support charge or uncharge a swap cluster backing a THP as a whole. The swap cluster allocate/free functions are added to allocate/free a swap cluster for a THP. A fair simple algorithm is used for swap cluster allocation, that is, only the first swap device in priority list will be tried to allocate the swap cluster. The function will fail if the trying is not successful, and the caller will fallback to allocate a single swap slot instead. This works good enough for normal cases. If the difference of the number of the free swap clusters among multiple swap devices is significant, it is possible that some THPs are split earlier than necessary. For example, this could be caused by big size difference among multiple swap devices. The swap cache functions is enhanced to support add/delete THP to/from the swap cache as a set of (HPAGE_PMD_NR) sub-pages. This may be enhanced in the future with multi-order radix tree. But because we will split the THP soon during swapping out, that optimization doesn't make much sense for this first step. The THP splitting functions are enhanced to support to split THP in swap cache during swapping out. The page lock will be held during allocating the swap cluster, adding the THP into the swap cache and splitting the THP. So in the code path other than swapping out, if the THP need to be split, the PageSwapCache(THP) will be always false. The swap cluster is only available for SSD, so the THP swap optimization in this patchset has no effect for HDD.

Commit a78ff111 ("um: add extended processor state save/restore support") and b6024b21 ("um: extend fpstate to _xstate to support YMM registers") forced the use of the x86 FP _xstate and PTRACE_GETREGSET/SETREGSET. On older hosts, we would neither be able to build UML nor run it anymore with these two commits applied because we don't have definitions for struct _xstate nor these two ptrace requests. We can determine at build time which fp context structure to check against, just like we can keep using the old i387 fp save/restore if PTRACE_GETRESET/SETREGSET are not defined.

Add the real e820_tabel_firmware[] that will not be modified by the kernel or the EFI boot stub under any circumstance. In addition to that modify the code so that e820_table_firmwarep[] is exposed via sysfs to represent the real firmware memory layout, rather than exposing the e820_table_kexec[] table. This fixes a hibernation bug/warning, which uses e820_table_kexec[] to check RAM layout consistency across hibernation/resume: The suspend kernel: [ 0.000000] e820: update [mem 0x76671018-0x76679457] usable ==> usable The resume kernel: [ 0.000000] e820: update [mem 0x7666f018-0x76677457] usable ==> usable ...

[ 15.770833] PM: Image mismatch: architecture specific data Actually it is safe to restore these pages because E820_TYPE_RAM and E820_TYPE_RESERVED_KERN are treated the same during hibernation, so the original e820 table provided by the bootloader is used for hibernation MD5 fingerprint checking. The side effect is that, this newly introduced variable might increase the kernel size at compile time.

Currently the e820_table_firmware[] table is mainly used by the kexec, and it is not what it's supposed to be - despite its name it might be modified by the kernel.
