This is additional hardening against an end_transfer_func that fails to clear the DRQ status bit. The bit must be unset as soon as the PIO transfer has completed, so it's better to do this in a central place instead of duplicating the code in all commands (and forgetting it in some).

由 Kevin Wolf 提交于
If the end_transfer_func of a command is called because enough data has been read or written for the current PIO transfer, and it fails to correctly call the command completion functions, the DRQ bit in the status register and s->end_transfer_func may remain set. This allows the guest to access further bytes in s->io_buffer beyond s->data_end, and eventually overflowing the io_buffer. One case where this currently happens is emulation of the ATAPI command START STOP UNIT. This patch fixes the problem by adding explicit array bounds checks before accessing the buffer instead of relying on end_transfer_func to function correctly.

The MemoryRegionSection contains enough information to access the RAM region underlying the framebuffer, and can be cached inside the display device. By doing this, the new framebuffer_update_memory_section function can enable dirty memory logging on the relevant RAM region. The function must be called whenever the stride or base of the framebuffer changes; a simple way to cover these cases is to call it on every full frame invalidation, which is a rare case. framebuffer_update_display now works entirely on a MemoryRegionSection, without going through cpu_physical_memory_map/unmap.

Currently, scsi_get_configuration always returns a current profile (DVD or CD), even when there is actually no media present. By comparison, ide/atapi uses a default profile of 0 (MMC_PROFILE_NONE) for this case and checks for tray_open, so let's do the same for scsi. This fixes a problem I'm seeing with Fedora 22 guests where systemd cdrom_id fails to unmount after a QEMU-initiated eject against a scsi cdrom device because it believes the media is still present (but unreadable).

Commit 812c1057 introduced HUP detection on unix and tcp sockets prior to a read in tcp_chr_read. This unfortunately broke CloudStack 4.2 which relied on the old behaviour where data on a socket was readable even if a HUP was present. A working solution is to properly check the return values from recv, handling a closed socket once there is no more data to read. Also enable polling for G_IO_NVAL to ensure the callback is called for all possible events as these should now be possible to handle with the improved error detection.

The RTL8168 quirk correctly describes using bit 31 as a signal to mark a latch/completion, but the code mistakenly uses bit 28. This causes the Realtek driver to spin on this register for quite a while, 20k cycles on Windows 7 v7.092 driver. Then it gets frustrated and tries to set the bit itself and spins for another 20k cycles. For some this still results in a working driver, for others not. About the only thing the code really does in its current form is protect the guest from sneaking in writes to the real hardware MSI-X table. The fix is obviously to use bit 31 as we document that we should. The other problem doesn't seem to affect current drivers as nobody seems to use these window registers for writes to the MSI-X table, but we need to use the stored data when a write is triggered, not the value of the current write, which only provides the offset. Note that only the Windows drivers from Realtek seem to use these registers, the Microsoft drivers provided with Windows 8.1 do not access them, nor do Linux in-kernel drivers.

It is pretty rare for aio_notify to actually set the EventNotifier. It can happen with worker threads such as thread-pool.c's, but otherwise it should never be set thanks to the ctx->notify_me optimization. The previous patch, unfortunately, added an unconditional call to event_notifier_test_and_clear; now add a userspace fast path that avoids the call. Note that it is not possible to do the same with event_notifier_set; it would break, as proved (again) by the included formal model. This patch survived over 3000 reboots on aarch64 KVM.

event_notifier_test_and_clear must be called before processing events. Otherwise, an aio_poll could "eat" the notification before the main I/O thread invokes ppoll(). The main I/O thread then never wakes up. This is an example of what could happen: i/o thread vcpu thread worker thread --------------------------------------------------------------------- lock_iothread notify_me = 1 ... unlock_iothread bh->scheduled = 1 event_notifier_set lock_iothread notify_me = 3 ppoll notify_me = 1 aio_dispatch aio_bh_poll thread_pool_completion_bh bh->scheduled = 1 event_notifier_set node->io_read(node->opaque) event_notifier_test_and_clear ppoll *** hang *** "Tracing" with qemu_clock_get_ns shows pretty much the same behavior as in the previous bug, so there are no new tricks here---just stare more at the code until it is apparent. One could also use a formal model, of course. The included one shows this with three processes: notifier corresponds to a QEMU thread pool worker, temporary_waiter to a VCPU thread that invokes aio_poll(), waiter to the main I/O thread. I would be happy to say that the formal model found the bug for me, but actually I wrote it after the fact. This patch is a bit of a big hammer. The next one optimizes it, with help (this time for real rather than a posteriori :)) from another, similar formal model. Reported-by: NRichard W. M.

This patch rewrites the ctx->dispatching optimization, which was the cause of some mysterious hangs that could be reproduced on aarch64 KVM only. The hangs were indirectly caused by aio_poll() and in particular by flash memory updates's call to blk_write(), which invokes aio_poll(). Fun stuff: they had an extremely short race window, so much that adding all kind of tracing to either the kernel or QEMU made it go away (a single printf made it half as reproducible). On the plus side, the failure mode (a hang until the next keypress) made it very easy to examine the state of the process with a debugger. And there was a very nice reproducer from Laszlo, which failed pretty often (more than half of the time) on any version of QEMU with a non-debug kernel; it also failed fast, while still in the firmware. So, it could have been worse. For some unknown reason they happened only with virtio-scsi, but that's not important. It's more interesting that they disappeared with io=native, making thread-pool.c a likely suspect for where the bug arose. thread-pool.c is also one of the few places which use bottom halves across threads, by the way. I hope that no other similar bugs exist, but just in case :) I am going to describe how the successful debugging went... Since the likely culprit was the ctx->dispatching optimization, which mostly affects bottom halves, the first observation was that there are two qemu_bh_schedule() invocations in the thread pool: the one in the aio worker and the one in thread_pool_completion_bh. The latter always causes the optimization to trigger, the former may or may not. In order to restrict the possibilities, I introduced new functions qemu_bh_schedule_slow() and qemu_bh_schedule_fast(): /* qemu_bh_schedule_slow: */ ctx = bh->ctx; bh->idle = 0; if (atomic_xchg(&bh->scheduled, 1) == 0) { event_notifier_set(&ctx->notifier); } /* qemu_bh_schedule_fast: */ ctx = bh->ctx; bh->idle = 0; assert(ctx->dispatching); atomic_xchg(&bh->scheduled, 1); Notice how the atomic_xchg is still in qemu_bh_schedule_slow(). This was already debated a few months ago, so I assumed it to be correct. In retrospect this was a very good idea, as you'll see later. Changing thread_pool_completion_bh() to qemu_bh_schedule_fast() didn't trigger the assertion (as expected). Changing the worker's invocation to qemu_bh_schedule_slow() didn't hide the bug (another assumption which luckily held). This already limited heavily the amount of interaction between the threads, hinting that the problematic events must have triggered around thread_pool_completion_bh(). As mentioned early, invoking a debugger to examine the state of a hung process was pretty easy; the iothread was always waiting on a poll(..., -1) system call. Infinite timeouts are much rarer on x86, and this could be the reason why the bug was never observed there. With the buggy sequence more or less resolved to an interaction between thread_pool_completion_bh() and poll(..., -1), my "tracing" strategy was to just add a few qemu_clock_get_ns(QEMU_CLOCK_REALTIME) calls, hoping that the ordering of aio_ctx_prepare(), aio_ctx_dispatch, poll() and qemu_bh_schedule_fast() would provide some hint. The output was: (gdb) p last_prepare $3 = 103885451 (gdb) p last_dispatch $4 = 103876492 (gdb) p last_poll $5 = 115909333 (gdb) p last_schedule $6 = 115925212 Notice how the last call to qemu_poll_ns() came after aio_ctx_dispatch(). This makes little sense unless there is an aio_poll() call involved, and indeed with a slightly different instrumentation you can see that there is one: (gdb) p last_prepare $3 = 107569679 (gdb) p last_dispatch $4 = 107561600 (gdb) p last_aio_poll $5 = 110671400 (gdb) p last_schedule $6 = 110698917 So the scenario becomes clearer: iothread VCPU thread -------------------------------------------------------------------------- aio_ctx_prepare aio_ctx_check qemu_poll_ns(timeout=-1) aio_poll aio_dispatch thread_pool_completion_bh qemu_bh_schedule() At this point bh->scheduled = 1 and the iothread has not been woken up. The solution must be close, but this alone should not be a problem, because the bottom half is only rescheduled to account for rare situations (see commit 3c80ca15, thread-pool: avoid deadlock in nested aio_poll() calls, 2014-07-15). Introducing a third thread---a thread pool worker thread, which also does qemu_bh_schedule()---does bring out the problematic case. The third thread must be awakened *after* the callback is complete and thread_pool_completion_bh has redone the whole loop, explaining the short race window. And then this is what happens: thread pool worker -------------------------------------------------------------------------- <I/O completes> qemu_bh_schedule() Tada, bh->scheduled is already 1, so qemu_bh_schedule() does nothing and the iothread is never woken up. This is where the bh->scheduled optimization comes into play---it is correct, but removing it would have masked the bug. So, what is the bug? Well, the question asked by the ctx->dispatching optimization ("is any active aio_poll dispatching?") was wrong. The right question to ask instead is "is any active aio_poll *not* dispatching", i.e. in the prepare or poll phases? In that case, the aio_poll is sleeping or might go to sleep anytime soon, and the EventNotifier must be invoked to wake it up. In any other case (including if there is *no* active aio_poll at all!) we can just wait for the next prepare phase to pick up the event (e.g. a bottom half); the prepare phase will avoid the blocking and service the bottom half. Expressing the invariant with a logic formula, the broken one looked like: !(exists(thread): in_dispatching(thread)) => !optimize or equivalently: !(exists(thread): in_aio_poll(thread) && in_dispatching(thread)) => !optimize In the correct one, the negation is in a slightly different place: (exists(thread): in_aio_poll(thread) && !in_dispatching(thread)) => !optimize or equivalently: (exists(thread): in_prepare_or_poll(thread)) => !optimize Even if the difference boils down to moving an exclamation mark :) the implementation is quite different. However, I think the new one is simpler to understand. In the old implementation, the "exists" was implemented with a boolean value. This didn't really support well the case of multiple concurrent event loops, but I thought that this was okay: aio_poll holds the AioContext lock so there cannot be concurrent aio_poll invocations, and I was just considering nested event loops. However, aio_poll _could_ indeed be concurrent with the GSource. This is why I came up with the wrong invariant. In the new implementation, "exists" is computed simply by counting how many threads are in the prepare or poll phases. There are some interesting points to consider, but the gist of the idea remains: 1) AioContext can be used through GSource as well; as mentioned in the patch, bit 0 of the counter is reserved for the GSource. 2) the counter need not be updated for a non-blocking aio_poll, because it won't sleep forever anyway. This is just a matter of checking the "blocking" variable. This requires some changes to the win32 implementation, but is otherwise not too complicated. 3) as mentioned above, the new implementation will not call aio_notify when there is *no* active aio_poll at all. The tests have to be adjusted for this change. The calls to aio_notify in async.c are fine; they only want to kick aio_poll out of a blocking wait, but need not do anything if aio_poll is not running. 4) nested aio_poll: these just work with the new implementation; when a nested event loop is invoked, the outer event loop is never in the prepare or poll phases. The outer event loop thus has already decremented the counter. Reported-by: NRichard W. M.

Preparatory bugfixes and tweaks to the loop before the next patch: - disable dispatch optimization during aio_prepare. This fixes a bug. - do not modify "blocking" until after the first WaitForMultipleObjects call. This is needed in the next patch. - change the loop to do...while. This makes it obvious that the loop is always entered at least once. In the next patch this is important because the first iteration undoes the ctx->notify_me increment that happened before entering the loop.

In these tests, the purpose of the initial calls to aio_poll and g_main_context_iteration is simply to put the AioContext in a known state; the return value of the function does not really matter. The next patch will change those return values; change the assertions to a while loop which expresses the intention better.

The normal value for the event is to be set. If we do not do this, pause_all_vcpus (through qemu_clock_enable) hangs unless timerlist_run_timers has been run at least once for the timerlist. This can happen with the following patches, that make aio_notify do nothing most of the time.

Limiting to sectors_per_chunk for each bdrv_is_allocated_above is slow, because the underlying protocol driver would issue much more queries than necessary. We should coalesce the query.
