This uses msgsnd where possible for signalling other threads within the same core on POWER8 systems, rather than IPIs through the XICS interrupt controller. This includes waking secondary threads to run the guest, the interrupts generated by the virtual XICS, and the interrupts to bring the other threads out of the guest when exiting. Aggregated statistics from debugfs across vcpus for a guest with 32 vcpus, 8 threads/vcore, running on a POWER8, show this before the change: rm_entry: 3387.6ns (228 - 86600, 1008969 samples) rm_exit: 4561.5ns (12 - 3477452, 1009402 samples) rm_intr: 1660.0ns (12 - 553050, 3600051 samples) and this after the change: rm_entry: 3060.1ns (212 - 65138, 953873 samples) rm_exit: 4244.1ns (12 - 9693408, 954331 samples) rm_intr: 1342.3ns (12 - 1104718, 3405326 samples) for a test of booting Fedora 20 big-endian to the login prompt. The time taken for a H_PROD hcall (which is handled in the host kernel) went down from about 35 microseconds to about 16 microseconds with this change. The noinline added to kvmppc_run_core turned out to be necessary for good performance, at least with gcc 4.9.2 as packaged with Fedora 21 and a little-endian POWER8 host.

This replaces the assembler code for kvmhv_commence_exit() with C code in book3s_hv_builtin.c. It also moves the IPI sending code that was in book3s_hv_rm_xics.c into a new kvmhv_rm_send_ipi() function so it can be used by kvmhv_commence_exit() as well as icp_rm_set_vcpu_irq().

On entry to the guest, secondary threads now wait for the primary to switch the MMU after loading up most of their state, rather than before. This means that the secondary threads get into the guest sooner, in the common case where the secondary threads get to kvmppc_hv_entry before the primary thread. On exit, the first thread out increments the exit count and interrupts the other threads (to get them out of the guest) before saving most of its state, rather than after. That means that the other threads exit sooner and means that the first thread doesn't spend so much time waiting for the other threads at the point where the MMU gets switched back to the host. This pulls out the code that increments the exit count and interrupts other threads into a separate function, kvmhv_commence_exit(). This also makes sure that r12 and vcpu->arch.trap are set correctly in some corner cases. Statistics from /sys/kernel/debug/kvm/vm*/vcpu*/timings show the improvement. Aggregating across vcpus for a guest with 32 vcpus, 8 threads/vcore, running on a POWER8, gives this before the change: rm_entry: avg 4537.3ns (222 - 48444, 1068878 samples) rm_exit: avg 4787.6ns (152 - 165490, 1010717 samples) rm_intr: avg 1673.6ns (12 - 341304, 3818691 samples) and this after the change: rm_entry: avg 3427.7ns (232 - 68150, 1118921 samples) rm_exit: avg 4716.0ns (12 - 150720, 1119477 samples) rm_intr: avg 1614.8ns (12 - 522436, 3850432 samples) showing a substantial reduction in the time spent per guest entry in the real-mode guest entry code, and smaller reductions in the real mode guest exit and interrupt handling times.

Currently, the entry_exit_count field in the kvmppc_vcore struct contains two 8-bit counts, one of the threads that have started entering the guest, and one of the threads that have started exiting the guest. This changes it to an entry_exit_map field which contains two bitmaps of 8 bits each. The advantage of doing this is that it gives us a bitmap of which threads need to be signalled when exiting the guest. That means that we no longer need to use the trick of setting the HDEC to 0 to pull the other threads out of the guest, which led in some cases to a spurious HDEC interrupt on the next guest entry.

This arranges for threads that are napping due to their vcpu having ceded or due to not having a vcpu to wake up at the end of the guest's timeslice without having to be poked with an IPI. We do that by arranging for the decrementer to contain a value no greater than the number of timebase ticks remaining until the end of the timeslice. In the case of a thread with no vcpu, this number is in the hypervisor decrementer already. In the case of a ceded vcpu, we use the smaller of the HDEC value and the DEC value. Using the DEC like this when ceded means we need to save and restore the guest decrementer value around the nap.

When running a multi-threaded guest and vcpu 0 in a virtual core is not running in the guest (i.e. it is busy elsewhere in the host), thread 0 of the physical core will switch the MMU to the guest and then go to nap mode in the code at kvm_do_nap. If the guest sends an IPI to thread 0 using the msgsndp instruction, that will wake up thread 0 and cause all the threads in the guest to exit to the host unnecessarily. To avoid the unnecessary exit, this arranges for the PECEDP bit to be cleared in this situation. When napping due to a H_CEDE from the guest, we still set PECEDP so that the thread will wake up on an IPI sent using msgsndp.

We can tell when a secondary thread has finished running a guest by the fact that it clears its kvm_hstate.kvm_vcpu pointer, so there is no real need for the nap_count field in the kvmppc_vcore struct. This changes kvmppc_wait_for_nap to poll the kvm_hstate.kvm_vcpu pointers of the secondary threads rather than polling vc->nap_count. Besides reducing the size of the kvmppc_vcore struct by 8 bytes, this also means that we can tell which secondary threads have got stuck and thus print a more informative error message.

Rather than calling cond_resched() in kvmppc_run_core() before doing the post-processing for the vcpus that we have just run (that is, calling kvmppc_handle_exit_hv(), kvmppc_set_timer(), etc.), we now do that post-processing before calling cond_resched(), and that post- processing is moved out into its own function, post_guest_process(). The reschedule point is now in kvmppc_run_vcpu() and we define a new vcore state, VCORE_PREEMPT, to indicate that that the vcore's runner task is runnable but not running. (Doing the reschedule with the vcore in VCORE_INACTIVE state would be bad because there are potentially other vcpus waiting for the runner in kvmppc_wait_for_exec() which then wouldn't get woken up.) Also, we make use of the handy cond_resched_lock() function, which unlocks and relocks vc->lock for us around the reschedule.

Previously, if kvmppc_run_core() was running a VCPU that needed a VPA update (i.e. one of its 3 virtual processor areas needed to be pinned in memory so the host real mode code can update it on guest entry and exit), we would drop the vcore lock and do the update there and then. Future changes will make it inconvenient to drop the lock, so instead we now remove it from the list of runnable VCPUs and wake up its VCPU task. This will have the effect that the VCPU task will exit kvmppc_run_vcpu(), go around the do loop in kvmppc_vcpu_run_hv(), and re-enter kvmppc_run_vcpu(), whereupon it will do the necessary call to kvmppc_update_vpas() and then rejoin the vcore. The one complication is that the runner VCPU (whose VCPU task is the current task) might be one of the ones that gets removed from the runnable list. In that case we just return from kvmppc_run_core() and let the code in kvmppc_run_vcpu() wake up another VCPU task to be the runner if necessary. This all means that the VCORE_STARTING state is no longer used, so we remove it. Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: NAlexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>

This reads the timebase at various points in the real-mode guest entry/exit code and uses that to accumulate total, minimum and maximum time spent in those parts of the code. Currently these times are accumulated per vcpu in 5 parts of the code: * rm_entry - time taken from the start of kvmppc_hv_entry() until just before entering the guest. * rm_intr - time from when we take a hypervisor interrupt in the guest until we either re-enter the guest or decide to exit to the host. This includes time spent handling hcalls in real mode. * rm_exit - time from when we decide to exit the guest until the return from kvmppc_hv_entry(). * guest - time spend in the guest * cede - time spent napping in real mode due to an H_CEDE hcall while other threads in the same vcore are active. These times are exposed in debugfs in a directory per vcpu that contains a file called "timings". This file contains one line for each of the 5 timings above, with the name followed by a colon and 4 numbers, which are the count (number of times the code has been executed), the total time, the minimum time, and the maximum time, all in nanoseconds. The overhead of the extra code amounts to about 30ns for an hcall that is handled in real mode (e.g. H_SET_DABR), which is about 25%. Since production environments may not wish to incur this overhead, the new code is conditional on a new config symbol, CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_HV_EXIT_TIMING.

This creates a debugfs directory for each HV guest (assuming debugfs is enabled in the kernel config), and within that directory, a file by which the contents of the guest's HPT (hashed page table) can be read. The directory is named vmnnnn, where nnnn is the PID of the process that created the guest. The file is named "htab". This is intended to help in debugging problems in the host's management of guest memory. The contents of the file consist of a series of lines like this: 3f48 4000d032bf003505 0000000bd7ff1196 00000003b5c71196 The first field is the index of the entry in the HPT, the second and third are the HPT entry, so the third entry contains the real page number that is mapped by the entry if the entry's valid bit is set. The fourth field is the guest's view of the second doubleword of the entry, so it contains the guest physical address. (The format of the second through fourth fields are described in the Power ISA and also in arch/powerpc/include/asm/mmu-hash64.h.)

Interrupt-based hypercalls return H_TOO_HARD to inform KVM that it needs to switch to the host to complete the rest of hypercall function in virtual mode. This patch ports the virtual mode ICS/ICP reject and resend functions to be runnable in hypervisor real mode, thus avoiding the need to switch to the host to execute these functions in virtual mode. However, the hypercalls continue to return H_TOO_HARD for vcpu_wakeup and notify events - these events cannot be done in real mode and they will still need a switch to host virtual mode. There are sufficient differences between the real mode code and the virtual mode code for the ICS/ICP resend and reject functions that for now the code has been duplicated instead of sharing common code. In the future, we can look at creating common functions.

Replaces the ICS mutex lock with a spin lock since we will be porting these routines to real mode. Note that we need to disable interrupts before we take the lock in anticipation of the fact that on the guest side, we are running in the context of a hard irq and interrupts are disabled (EE bit off) when the lock is acquired. Again, because we will be acquiring the lock in hypervisor real mode, we need to use an arch_spinlock_t instead of a normal spinlock here as we want to avoid running any lockdep code (which may not be safe to execute in real mode).

Some PowerNV systems include a hardware random-number generator. This HWRNG is present on POWER7+ and POWER8 chips and is capable of generating one 64-bit random number every microsecond. The random numbers are produced by sampling a set of 64 unstable high-frequency oscillators and are almost completely entropic. PAPR defines an H_RANDOM hypercall which guests can use to obtain one 64-bit random sample from the HWRNG. This adds a real-mode implementation of the H_RANDOM hypercall. This hypercall was implemented in real mode because the latency of reading the HWRNG is generally small compared to the latency of a guest exit and entry for all the threads in the same virtual core. Userspace can detect the presence of the HWRNG and the H_RANDOM implementation by querying the KVM_CAP_PPC_HWRNG capability. The H_RANDOM hypercall implementation will only be invoked when the guest does an H_RANDOM hypercall if userspace first enables the in-kernel H_RANDOM implementation using the KVM_CAP_PPC_ENABLE_HCALL capability.

On POWER, storage caching is usually configured via the MMU - attributes such as cache-inhibited are stored in the TLB and the hashed page table. This makes correctly performing cache inhibited IO accesses awkward when the MMU is turned off (real mode). Some CPU models provide special registers to control the cache attributes of real mode load and stores but this is not at all consistent. This is a problem in particular for SLOF, the firmware used on KVM guests, which runs entirely in real mode, but which needs to do IO to load the kernel. To simplify this qemu implements two special hypercalls, H_LOGICAL_CI_LOAD and H_LOGICAL_CI_STORE which simulate a cache-inhibited load or store to a logical address (aka guest physical address). SLOF uses these for IO. However, because these are implemented within qemu, not the host kernel, these bypass any IO devices emulated within KVM itself. The simplest way to see this problem is to attempt to boot a KVM guest from a virtio-blk device with iothread / dataplane enabled. The iothread code relies on an in kernel implementation of the virtio queue notification, which is not triggered by the IO hcalls, and so the guest will stall in SLOF unable to load the guest OS. This patch addresses this by providing in-kernel implementations of the 2 hypercalls, which correctly scan the KVM IO bus. Any access to an address not handled by the KVM IO bus will cause a VM exit, hitting the qemu implementation as before. Note that a userspace change is also required, in order to enable these new hcall implementations with KVM_CAP_PPC_ENABLE_HCALL.

In addition, this causes lockdep to warn about a lock ordering issue: ====================================================== [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 3.18.0-kvm-04645-gdfea862-dirty #131 Not tainted ------------------------------------------------------- qemu-system-ppc/8179 is trying to acquire lock: (&kvm->lock){+.+.+.}, at: [<d00000000ecc1f54>] .kvmppc_set_lpcr+0xf4/0x1c0 [kvm_hv] but task is already holding lock: (&(&vcore->lock)->rlock){+.+...}, at: [<d00000000ecc1ea0>] .kvmppc_set_lpcr+0x40/0x1c0 [kvm_hv] which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #1 (&(&vcore->lock)->rlock){+.+...}: [<c000000000b3c120>] .mutex_lock_nested+0x80/0x570 [<d00000000ecc7a14>] .kvmppc_vcpu_run_hv+0xc4/0xe40 [kvm_hv] [<d00000000eb9f5cc>] .kvmppc_vcpu_run+0x2c/0x40 [kvm] [<d00000000eb9cb24>] .kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run+0x54/0x160 [kvm] [<d00000000eb94478>] .kvm_vcpu_ioctl+0x4a8/0x7b0 [kvm] [<c00000000026cbb4>] .do_vfs_ioctl+0x444/0x770 [<c00000000026cfa4>] .SyS_ioctl+0xc4/0xe0 [<c000000000009264>] syscall_exit+0x0/0x98 -> #0 (&kvm->lock){+.+.+.}: [<c0000000000ff28c>] .lock_acquire+0xcc/0x1a0 [<c000000000b3c120>] .mutex_lock_nested+0x80/0x570 [<d00000000ecc1f54>] .kvmppc_set_lpcr+0xf4/0x1c0 [kvm_hv] [<d00000000ecc510c>] .kvmppc_set_one_reg_hv+0x4dc/0x990 [kvm_hv] [<d00000000eb9f234>] .kvmppc_set_one_reg+0x44/0x330 [kvm] [<d00000000eb9c9dc>] .kvm_vcpu_ioctl_set_one_reg+0x5c/0x150 [kvm] [<d00000000eb9ced4>] .kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl+0x214/0x2c0 [kvm] [<d00000000eb940b0>] .kvm_vcpu_ioctl+0xe0/0x7b0 [kvm] [<c00000000026cbb4>] .do_vfs_ioctl+0x444/0x770 [<c00000000026cfa4>] .SyS_ioctl+0xc4/0xe0 [<c000000000009264>] syscall_exit+0x0/0x98 other info that might help us debug this: Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(&(&vcore->lock)->rlock); lock(&kvm->lock); lock(&(&vcore->lock)->rlock); lock(&kvm->lock); *** DEADLOCK *** 2 locks held by qemu-system-ppc/8179: #0: (&vcpu->mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<d00000000eb93f18>] .vcpu_load+0x28/0x90 [kvm] #1: (&(&vcore->lock)->rlock){+.+...}, at: [<d00000000ecc1ea0>] .kvmppc_set_lpcr+0x40/0x1c0 [kvm_hv] stack backtrace: CPU: 4 PID: 8179 Comm: qemu-system-ppc Not tainted 3.18.0-kvm-04645-gdfea862-dirty #131 Call Trace: [c000001a66c0f310] [c000000000b486ac] .dump_stack+0x88/0xb4 (unreliable) [c000001a66c0f390] [c0000000000f8bec] .print_circular_bug+0x27c/0x3d0 [c000001a66c0f440] [c0000000000fe9e8] .__lock_acquire+0x2028/0x2190 [c000001a66c0f5d0] [c0000000000ff28c] .lock_acquire+0xcc/0x1a0 [c000001a66c0f6a0] [c000000000b3c120] .mutex_lock_nested+0x80/0x570 [c000001a66c0f7c0] [d00000000ecc1f54] .kvmppc_set_lpcr+0xf4/0x1c0 [kvm_hv] [c000001a66c0f860] [d00000000ecc510c] .kvmppc_set_one_reg_hv+0x4dc/0x990 [kvm_hv] [c000001a66c0f8d0] [d00000000eb9f234] .kvmppc_set_one_reg+0x44/0x330 [kvm] [c000001a66c0f960] [d00000000eb9c9dc] .kvm_vcpu_ioctl_set_one_reg+0x5c/0x150 [kvm] [c000001a66c0f9f0] [d00000000eb9ced4] .kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl+0x214/0x2c0 [kvm] [c000001a66c0faf0] [d00000000eb940b0] .kvm_vcpu_ioctl+0xe0/0x7b0 [kvm] [c000001a66c0fcb0] [c00000000026cbb4] .do_vfs_ioctl+0x444/0x770 [c000001a66c0fd90] [c00000000026cfa4] .SyS_ioctl+0xc4/0xe0 [c000001a66c0fe30] [c000000000009264] syscall_exit+0x0/0x98 This fixes it by moving the mutex_lock()/mutex_unlock() pair outside the spin-locked region.

We currently use the device tree update code in the kernel after resuming from a suspend operation to re-sync the kernels view of the device tree with that of the hypervisor. The code as it stands is not endian safe as it relies on parsing buffers returned by RTAS calls that thusly contains data in big endian format. This patch annotates variables and structure members with __be types as well as performing necessary byte swaps to cpu endian for data that needs to be parsed.

Since we can now use hypervisor doorbells for host IPIs, this makes sure we clear the host IPI flag when taking a doorbell interrupt, and clears any pending doorbell IPI in pnv_smp_cpu_kill_self() (as we already do for IPIs sent via the XICS interrupt controller). Otherwise if there did happen to be a leftover pending doorbell interrupt for an offline CPU thread for any reason, it would prevent that thread from going into a power-saving mode; it would instead keep waking up because of the interrupt.

After d905c5df ("PPC: POWERNV: move iommu_add_device earlier"), the refcnt on the kobject backing the IOMMU group for a PCI device is elevated by each call to pci_dma_dev_setup_pSeriesLP() (via set_iommu_table_base_and_group). When we go to dlpar a multi-function PCI device out: iommu_reconfig_notifier -> iommu_free_table -> iommu_group_put BUG_ON(tbl->it_group) We trip this BUG_ON, because there are still references on the table, so it is not freed. Fix this by moving the powernv bus notifier to common code and calling it for both powernv and pseries.

Anton has a busy ppc64le KVM box where guests sometimes hit the infamous "kernel BUG at kernel/smpboot.c:134!" issue during boot: BUG_ON(td->cpu != smp_processor_id()); Basically a per CPU hotplug thread scheduled on the wrong CPU. The oops output confirms it: CPU: 0 Comm: watchdog/130 The problem is that we aren't ensuring the CPU active bit is set for the secondary before allowing the master to continue on. The master unparks the secondary CPU's kthreads and the scheduler looks for a CPU to run on. It calls select_task_rq() and realises the suggested CPU is not in the cpus_allowed mask. It then ends up in select_fallback_rq(), and since the active bit isnt't set we choose some other CPU to run on. This seems to have been introduced by 6acbfb96 "sched: Fix hotplug vs. set_cpus_allowed_ptr()", which changed from setting active before online to setting active after online. However that was in turn fixing a bug where other code assumed an active CPU was also online, so we can't just revert that fix. The simplest fix is just to spin waiting for both active & online to be set. We already have a barrier prior to set_cpu_online() (which also sets active), to ensure all other setup is completed before online & active are set.

Implement arch_irq_work_has_interrupt() for powerpc Commit 9b01f5bf introduced a dependency on "IRQ work self-IPIs" for full dynamic ticks to be enabled, by expecting architectures to implement a suitable arch_irq_work_has_interrupt() routine. Several arches have implemented this routine, including x86 (3010279f) and arm (09f6edd4), but powerpc was omitted. This patch implements this routine for powerpc. The symptom, at boot (on powerpc systems) with "nohz_full=<CPU list>" is displayed: NO_HZ: Can't run full dynticks because arch doesn't support irq work self-IPIs after this patch: NO_HZ: Full dynticks CPUs: <CPU list>. Tested against 3.19. powerpc implements "IRQ work self-IPIs" by setting the decrementer to 1 in arch_irq_work_raise(), which causes a decrementer exception on the next timebase tick. We then handle the work in __timer_interrupt(). CC: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NPaul A. Clarke <pc@us.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: NPaul E.

Add a new kexec preprocessor macro IND_FLAGS, which is the bitwise OR of all the possible kexec IND_ kimage_entry indirection flags. Having this macro allows for simplified code in the prosessing of the kexec kimage_entry items. Also, remove the local powerpc definition and use the generic one.
