      x86/spinlocks/paravirt: Fix memory corruption on unlock · d6abfdb2
      由 Raghavendra K T 提交于 
      Paravirt spinlock clears slowpath flag after doing unlock.
As explained by Linus currently it does:

                prev = *lock;
                add_smp(&lock->tickets.head, TICKET_LOCK_INC);

                /* add_smp() is a full mb() */

                if (unlikely(lock->tickets.tail & TICKET_SLOWPATH_FLAG))
                        __ticket_unlock_slowpath(lock, prev);

which is *exactly* the kind of things you cannot do with spinlocks,
because after you've done the "add_smp()" and released the spinlock
for the fast-path, you can't access the spinlock any more.  Exactly
because a fast-path lock might come in, and release the whole data
structure.

Linus suggested that we should not do any writes to lock after unlock(),
and we can move slowpath clearing to fastpath lock.

So this patch implements the fix with:

 1. Moving slowpath flag to head (Oleg):
    Unlocked locks don't care about the slowpath flag; therefore we can keep
    it set after the last unlock, and clear it again on the first (try)lock.
    -- this removes the write after unlock. note that keeping slowpath flag would
    result in unnecessary kicks.
    By moving the slowpath flag from the tail to the head ticket we also avoid
    the need to access both the head and tail tickets on unlock.

 2. use xadd to avoid read/write after unlock that checks the need for
    unlock_kick (Linus):
    We further avoid the need for a read-after-release by using xadd;
    the prev head value will include the slowpath flag and indicate if we
    need to do PV kicking of suspended spinners -- on modern chips xadd
    isn't (much) more expensive than an add + load.

Result:
 setup: 16core (32 cpu +ht sandy bridge 8GB 16vcpu guest)

      x86/xen: prefer TSC over xen clocksource for dom0 · 94dd85f6
      由 Palik, Imre 提交于 
      In Dom0's the use of the TSC clocksource (whenever it is stable enough to
be used) instead of the Xen clocksource should not cause any issues, as
Dom0 VMs never live-migrated.  The TSC clocksource is somewhat more
efficient than the Xen paravirtualised clocksource, thus it should have
higher rating.

This patch decreases the rating of the Xen clocksource in Dom0s to 275.
Which is half-way between the rating of the TSC clocksource (300) and the
hpet clocksource (250).

      x86/xen: properly retrieve NMI reason · f221b04f
      由 Jan Beulich 提交于 
      Using the native code here can't work properly, as the hypervisor would
normally have cleared the two reason bits by the time Dom0 gets to see
the NMI (if passed to it at all). There's a shared info field for this,
and there's an existing hook to use - just fit the two together. This
is particularly relevant so that NMIs intended to be handled by APEI /
GHES actually make it to the respective handler.

Note that the hook can (and should) be used irrespective of whether
being in Dom0, as accessing port 0x61 in a DomU would be even worse,
while the shared info field would just hold zero all the time. Note
further that hardware NMI handling for PVH doesn't currently work
anyway due to missing code in the hypervisor (but it is expected to
work the native rather than the PV way).

      xen: switch to post-init routines in xen mmu.c earlier · cdfa0bad
      由 Juergen Gross 提交于 
      With the virtual mapped linear p2m list the post-init mmu operations
must be used for setting up the p2m mappings, as in case of
CONFIG_FLATMEM the init routines may trigger BUGs.

paging_init() sets up all infrastructure needed to switch to the
post-init mmu ops done by xen_post_allocator_init(). With the virtual
mapped linear p2m list we need some mmu ops during setup of this list,
so we have to switch to the correct mmu ops as soon as possible.

The p2m list is usable from the beginning, just expansion requires to
have established the new linear mapping. So the call of
xen_remap_memory() had to be introduced, but this is not due to the
mmu ops requiring this.

Summing it up: calling xen_post_allocator_init() not directly after
paging_init() was conceptually wrong in the beginning, it just didn't
matter up to now as no functions used between the two calls needed
some critical mmu ops (e.g. alloc_pte). This has changed now, so I
corrected it.
