Add 'union ctlreg0_bits' to easily allow setting and testing bits of control register 0 bits. This patch only adds the bits needed for the new guest access functions.

Introduce a 'struct psw' which makes it easier to decode and test if certain bits in a psw are set or are not set. In addition also add a 'psw_bits()' helper define which allows to directly modify and test a psw_t structure.

It's quite common (in the s390 guest access code) to test if a guest physical address points to a valid guest memory area or not. So add a simple helper function in common code, since this might be of interest for other architectures as well.

When userspace reset the guest without notifying kvm, the CMMA state of the pages might be unused, resulting in guest data corruption. To avoid this, CMMA must be enabled only if userspace understands the implications. CMMA must be enabled before vCPU creation. It can't be switched off once enabled. All subsequently created vCPUs will be enabled for CMMA according to the CMMA state of the VM.

Switch the user dirty bit detection used for migration from the hardware provided host change-bit in the pgste to a fault based detection method. This reduced the dependency of the host from the storage key to a point where it becomes possible to enable the RCP bypass for KVM guests. The fault based dirty detection will only indicate changes caused by accesses via the guest address space. The hardware based method can detect all changes, even those caused by I/O or accesses via the kernel page table. The KVM/qemu code needs to take this into account.

Introduce a new function s390_enable_skey(), which enables storage key handling via setting the use_skey flag in the mmu context. This function is only useful within the context of kvm. Note that enabling storage keys will cause a one-time hickup when walking the page table; however, it saves us special effort for cases like clear reset while making it possible for us to be architecture conform. s390_enable_skey() takes the page table lock to prevent reseting storage keys triggered from multiple vcpus.

由 Tony Luck 提交于
April 2014 Itanium processor specification update: http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/processors/itanium/itanium-specification-update.html describes this erratum: ========================================================================= 237. Under a complex set of conditions, store to load forwarding for a sub 8-byte load may complete incorrectly Problem: A load instruction may complete incorrectly when a code sequence using 4-byte or smaller load and store operations to the same address is executed in combination with specific timing of all the following concurrent conditions: store to load forwarding, alignment checking enabled, a mis-predicted branch, and complex cache utilization activity. Implication: The affected sub 8-byte instruction may complete incorrectly resulting in unpredictable system behavior. There is an extremely low probability of exposure due to the significant number of complex microarchitectural concurrent conditions required to encounter the erratum. Workaround: Set PSR.ac = 0 to completely avoid the erratum. Disabling Hyper-Threading will significantly reduce exposure to the conditions that contribute to encountering the erratum. Status: See the Summary Table of Changes for the affected steppings. ========================================================================= [Table of changes essentially lists all models from McKinley to Tukwila] The PSR.ac bit controls whether the processor will always generate an unaligned reference trap (0x5a00) for a misaligned data access (when PSR.ac=1) or if it will let the access succeed when running on a cpu that implements logic to handle some unaligned accesses. Way back in 2008 in commit b704882e [IA64] Rationalize kernel mode alignment checking we made the decision to always enable strict checking. We were already doing so in trap/interrupt context because the common preamble code set this bit - but the rest of supervisor code (and by inheritance user code) ran with PSR.ac=0. We now reverse that decision and set PSR.ac=0 everywhere in the kernel (also inherited by user processes). This will avoid the erratum using the method described in the Itanium specification update. Net effect for users is that the processor will handle unaligned access when it can (typically with a tiny performance bubble in the pipeline ... but much less invasive than taking a trap and having the OS perform the access).

From Vlad Yasevich. 7) We have several cases of using socket based communications to implement a tunnel. For example, some tunnels are encapsulations over UDP so we use an internal kernel UDP socket to do the transmits. These tunnels should behave just like other software devices and pass the packets on down to the next layer. Most importantly we want the top-level socket (eg TCP) that created the traffic to be charged for the SKB memory. However, once you get into the IP output path, we have code that assumed that whatever was attached to skb->sk is an IP socket. To keep the top-level socket being charged for the SKB memory, whilst satisfying the needs of the IP output path, we now pass in an explicit 'sk' argument. From Eric Dumazet. 8) ping_init_sock() leaks group info, from Xiaoming Wang. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: (33 commits) cxgb4: use the correct max size for firmware flash qlcnic: Fix MSI-X initialization code ip6_gre: don't allow to remove the fb_tunnel_dev ipv4: add a sock pointer to dst->output() path. ipv4: add a sock pointer to ip_queue_xmit() driver/net: cosa driver uses udelay incorrectly at86rf230: fix __at86rf230_read_subreg function at86rf230: remove check if AVDD settled net: cadence: Add architecture dependencies net: Start with correct mac_len in skb_network_protocol Revert "net: sctp: Fix a_rwnd/rwnd management to reflect real state of the receiver's buffer" cxgb4: Save the correct mac addr for hw-loopback connections in the L2T net: filter: seccomp: fix wrong decoding of BPF_S_ANC_SECCOMP_LD_W seccomp: fix populating a0-a5 syscall args in 32-bit x86 BPF qlcnic: Do not disable SR-IOV when VFs are assigned to VMs qlcnic: Fix QLogic application/driver interface for virtual NIC configuration qlcnic: Fix PVID configuration on eSwitch port. qlcnic: Fix max ring count calculation qlcnic: Fix to send INIT_NIC_FUNC as first mailbox. qlcnic: Fix panic due to uninitialzed delayed_work struct in use. ...

In the dst->output() path for ipv4, the code assumes the skb it has to transmit is attached to an inet socket, specifically via ip_mc_output() : The sk_mc_loop() test triggers a WARN_ON() when the provider of the packet is an AF_PACKET socket.

smp_read_barrier_depends() can be used if there is data dependency between the readers - i.e. if the read operation after the barrier uses address that was obtained from the read operation before the barrier. In this file, there is only control dependency, no data dependecy, so the use of smp_read_barrier_depends() is incorrect. The code could fail in the following way: * the cpu predicts that idx < entries is true and starts executing the body of the for loop * the cpu fetches map->extent[0].first and map->extent[0].count * the cpu fetches map->nr_extents * the cpu verifies that idx < extents is true, so it commits the instructions in the body of the for loop The problem is that in this scenario, the cpu read map->extent[0].first and map->nr_extents in the wrong order.

Sometimes, when the packet arrives at skb_mac_gso_segment() its skb->mac_len already accounts for some of the mac lenght headers in the packet. This seems to happen when forwarding through and OpenSSL tunnel. When we start looking for any vlan headers in skb_network_protocol() we seem to ignore any of the already known mac headers and start with an ETH_HLEN. This results in an incorrect offset, dropped TSO frames and general slowness of the connection. We can start counting from the known skb->mac_len and return at least that much if all mac level headers are known and accounted for.

This reverts commit ef2820a7 ("net: sctp: Fix a_rwnd/rwnd management to reflect real state of the receiver's buffer") as it introduced a serious performance regression on SCTP over IPv4 and IPv6, though a not as dramatic on the latter. Measurements are on 10Gbit/s with ixgbe NICs.
