      asm alternatives: remove incorrect alignment notes · a7f934d4
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      On x86-64, they were just wasteful: with the explicitly added (now
unnecessary) padding, the size of the alternatives structure was 16
bytes, and an alignment of 8 bytes didn't hurt much.

However, it was still silly, since the natural size and alignment for
the structure is actually just 12 bytes, 4-byte aligned since commit
59e97e4d ("x86: Make alternative instruction pointers relative").
So removing the padding, and removing the extra alignment is just a good
idea.

On x86-32, the alignment of 4 bytes was correct, but was incorrectly
hardcoded as 8 bytes in <asm/alternative-asm.h>.  That header file had
used to be an x86-64 only header file, but various unification efforts
have made it be used for x86-32 too (ie the unification of rwlock and
rwsem).

That in turn caused x86-32 boot failures, because the extra alignment
would result in random zero-filled words in the altinstructions section,
causing oopses early at boot when doing alternative instruction
replacement.

So just remove all the alignment noise entirely.  It's wrong, and it's
unnecessary.  The section itself is already properly aligned by the
linker scripts, and all additions to the section had better be of the
proper 12-byte format, keeping it aligned.  So if the align directive
were to ever make a difference, that would be an indication of a serious
bug to begin with.

      xen/e820: if there is no dom0_mem=, don't tweak extra_pages. · e3b73c4a
      由 David Vrabel 提交于 
      The patch "xen: use maximum reservation to limit amount of usable RAM"
(d312ae87) breaks machines that
do not use 'dom0_mem=' argument with:

reserve RAM buffer: 000000133f2e2000 - 000000133fffffff
(XEN) mm.c:4976:d0 Global bit is set to kernel page fffff8117e
(XEN) domain_crash_sync called from entry.S
(XEN) Domain 0 (vcpu#0) crashed on cpu#0:
...

The reason being that the last E820 entry is created using the
'extra_pages' (which is based on how many pages have been freed).
The mentioned git commit sets the initial value of 'extra_pages'
using a hypercall which returns the number of pages (if dom0_mem
has been used) or -1 otherwise. If the later we return with
MAX_DOMAIN_PAGES as basis for calculation:

    return min(max_pages, MAX_DOMAIN_PAGES);

and use it:

     extra_limit = xen_get_max_pages();
     if (extra_limit >= max_pfn)
             extra_pages = extra_limit - max_pfn;
     else
             extra_pages = 0;

which means we end up with extra_pages = 128GB in PFNs (33554432)
- 8GB in PFNs (2097152, on this specific box, can be larger or smaller),
and then we add that value to the E820 making it:

  Xen: 00000000ff000000 - 0000000100000000 (reserved)
  Xen: 0000000100000000 - 000000133f2e2000 (usable)

which is clearly wrong. It should look as so:

  Xen: 00000000ff000000 - 0000000100000000 (reserved)
  Xen: 0000000100000000 - 000000027fbda000 (usable)

Naturally this problem does not present itself if dom0_mem=max:X
is used.

      xen: use maximum reservation to limit amount of usable RAM · d312ae87
      由 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
      由 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
      由 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

      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.
