Each time we need to cancel injection we invoke same code (cancel_injection callback). Move it towards the end of function using the familiar goto on error pattern. Will make it easier to do more cleanups for PV EOI. Signed-off-by: NMichael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

Commit eb0dc6d0368072236dcd086d7fdc17fd3c4574d4 introduced apic attention bitmask but kvm still syncs lapic unconditionally.

The idea is simple: there's a bit, per APIC, in guest memory, that tells the guest that it does not need EOI. Guest tests it using a single est and clear operation - this is necessary so that host can detect interrupt nesting - and if set, it can skip the EOI MSR. I run a simple microbenchmark to show exit reduction (note: for testing, need to apply follow-up patch 'kvm: host side for eoi optimization' + a qemu patch I posted separately, on host): Before: Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1s': 47,357 kvm:kvm_entry [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_hypercall [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_hv_hypercall [99.98%] 5,001 kvm:kvm_pio [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_cpuid [99.98%] 22,124 kvm:kvm_apic [99.98%] 49,849 kvm:kvm_exit [99.98%] 21,115 kvm:kvm_inj_virq [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_inj_exception [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_page_fault [99.98%] 22,937 kvm:kvm_msr [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_cr [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_pic_set_irq [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_apic_ipi [99.98%] 22,207 kvm:kvm_apic_accept_irq [99.98%] 22,421 kvm:kvm_eoi [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_pv_eoi [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_nested_vmrun [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_nested_intercepts [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_nested_vmexit [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_nested_vmexit_inject [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_nested_intr_vmexit [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_invlpga [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_skinit [99.99%] 57 kvm:kvm_emulate_insn [99.99%] 0 kvm:vcpu_match_mmio [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_userspace_exit [99.99%] 2 kvm:kvm_set_irq [99.99%] 2 kvm:kvm_ioapic_set_irq [99.99%] 23,609 kvm:kvm_msi_set_irq [99.99%] 1 kvm:kvm_ack_irq [99.99%] 131 kvm:kvm_mmio [99.99%] 226 kvm:kvm_fpu [100.00%] 0 kvm:kvm_age_page [100.00%] 0 kvm:kvm_try_async_get_page [100.00%] 0 kvm:kvm_async_pf_doublefault [100.00%] 0 kvm:kvm_async_pf_not_present [100.00%] 0 kvm:kvm_async_pf_ready [100.00%] 0 kvm:kvm_async_pf_completed 1.002100578 seconds time elapsed After: Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1s': 28,354 kvm:kvm_entry [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_hypercall [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_hv_hypercall [99.98%] 1,347 kvm:kvm_pio [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_cpuid [99.98%] 1,931 kvm:kvm_apic [99.98%] 29,595 kvm:kvm_exit [99.98%] 24,884 kvm:kvm_inj_virq [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_inj_exception [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_page_fault [99.98%] 1,986 kvm:kvm_msr [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_cr [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_pic_set_irq [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_apic_ipi [99.99%] 25,953 kvm:kvm_apic_accept_irq [99.99%] 26,132 kvm:kvm_eoi [99.99%] 26,593 kvm:kvm_pv_eoi [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_nested_vmrun [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_nested_intercepts [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_nested_vmexit [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_nested_vmexit_inject [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_nested_intr_vmexit [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_invlpga [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_skinit [99.99%] 284 kvm:kvm_emulate_insn [99.99%] 68 kvm:vcpu_match_mmio [99.99%] 68 kvm:kvm_userspace_exit [99.99%] 2 kvm:kvm_set_irq [99.99%] 2 kvm:kvm_ioapic_set_irq [99.99%] 28,288 kvm:kvm_msi_set_irq [99.99%] 1 kvm:kvm_ack_irq [99.99%] 131 kvm:kvm_mmio [100.00%] 588 kvm:kvm_fpu [100.00%] 0 kvm:kvm_age_page [100.00%] 0 kvm:kvm_try_async_get_page [100.00%] 0 kvm:kvm_async_pf_doublefault [100.00%] 0 kvm:kvm_async_pf_not_present [100.00%] 0 kvm:kvm_async_pf_ready [100.00%] 0 kvm:kvm_async_pf_completed 1.002039622 seconds time elapsed We see that # of exits is almost halved.

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.

lpage_info is created for each large level even when the memory slot is not for RAM. This means that when we add one slot for a PCI device, we end up allocating at least KVM_NR_PAGE_SIZES - 1 pages by vmalloc(). To make things worse, there is an increasing number of devices which would result in more pages being wasted this way. This patch mitigates this problem by using kvm_kvzalloc().

Cyrill Gorcunov reports that I broke the fdinfo files with commit 30a08bf2 ("proc: move fd symlink i_mode calculations into tid_fd_revalidate()"), and he's quite right. The tid_fd_revalidate() function is not just used for the <tid>/fd symlinks, it's also used for the <tid>/fdinfo/<fd> files, and the permission model for those are different. So do the dynamic symlink permission handling just for symlinks, making the fdinfo files once more appear as the proper regular files they are. Of course, Al Viro argued (probably correctly) that we shouldn't do the symlink permission games at all, and make the symlinks always just be the normal 'lrwxrwxrwx'. That would have avoided this issue too, but since somebody noticed that the permissions had changed (which was the reason for that original commit 30a08bf2 in the first place), people do apparently use this feature. [ Basically, you can use the symlink permission data as a cheap "fdinfo" replacement, since you see whether the file is open for reading and/or writing by just looking at st_mode of the symlink. So the feature does make sense, even if the pain it has caused means we probably shouldn't have done it to begin with. ] Reported-and-tested-by: NCyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

This reverts commit 5ceb9ce6. That commit seems to be the cause of the mm compation list corruption issues that Dave Jones reported. The locking (or rather, absense there-of) is dubious, as is the use of the 'page' variable once it has been found to be outside the pageblock range. So revert it for now, we can re-visit this for 3.6. If we even need to: as Minchan Kim says, "The patch wasn't a bug fix and even test workload was very theoretical".

New tmpfs use of !PageUptodate pages for fallocate() is triggering the WARNING: at mm/page-writeback.c:1990 when __set_page_dirty_nobuffers() is called from migrate_page_copy() for compaction. It is anomalous that migration should use __set_page_dirty_nobuffers() on an address_space that does not participate in dirty and writeback accounting; and this has also been observed to insert surprising dirty tags into a tmpfs radix_tree, despite tmpfs not using tags at all. We should probably give migrate_page_copy() a better way to preserve the tag and migrate accounting info, when mapping_cap_account_dirty(). But that needs some more work: so in the interim, avoid the warning by using a simple SetPageDirty on PageSwapBacked pages.
