s390 for one, cannot implement VM_MIXEDMAP with pfn_valid, due to their memory model (which is more dynamic than most). Instead, they had proposed to implement it with an additional path through vm_normal_page(), using a bit in the pte to determine whether or not the page should be refcounted: vm_normal_page() { ... if (unlikely(vma->vm_flags & (VM_PFNMAP|VM_MIXEDMAP))) { if (vma->vm_flags & VM_MIXEDMAP) { #ifdef s390 if (!mixedmap_refcount_pte(pte)) return NULL; #else if (!pfn_valid(pfn)) return NULL; #endif goto out; } ... } This is fine, however if we are allowed to use a bit in the pte to determine refcountedness, we can use that to _completely_ replace all the vma based schemes. So instead of adding more cases to the already complex vma-based scheme, we can have a clearly seperate and simple pte-based scheme (and get slightly better code generation in the process): vm_normal_page() { #ifdef s390 if (!mixedmap_refcount_pte(pte)) return NULL; return pte_page(pte); #else ... #endif } And finally, we may rather make this concept usable by any architecture rather than making it s390 only, so implement a new type of pte state for this. Unfortunately the old vma based code must stay, because some architectures may not be able to spare pte bits. This makes vm_normal_page a little bit more ugly than we would like, but the 2 cases are clearly seperate. So introduce a pte_special pte state, and use it in mm/memory.c. It is currently a noop for all architectures, so this doesn't actually result in any compiled code changes to mm/memory.o. BTW: I haven't put vm_normal_page() into arch code as-per an earlier suggestion. The reason is that, regardless of where vm_normal_page is actually implemented, the *abstraction* is still exactly the same. Also, while it depends on whether the architecture has pte_special or not, that is the only two possible cases, and it really isn't an arch specific function -- the role of the arch code should be to provide primitive functions and accessors with which to build the core code; pte_special does that. We do not want architectures to know or care about vm_normal_page itself, and we definitely don't want them being able to invent something new there out of sight of mm/ code. If we made vm_normal_page an arch function, then we have to make vm_insert_mixed (next patch) an arch function too. So I don't think moving it to arch code fundamentally improves any abstractions, while it does practically make the code more difficult to follow, for both mm and arch developers, and easier to misuse.

This patch implements kvm guest kernel support for paravirtualized devices and contains two parts: o a basic virtio stub using virtio_ring and external interrupts and hypercalls o full hypercall implementation in kvm_para.h Currently we dont have PCI on s390. Making virtio_pci usable for s390 seems more complicated that providing an own stub. This virtio stub is similar to the lguest one, the memory for the descriptors and the device detection is made via additional mapped memory on top of the guest storage. We use an external interrupt with extint code 0x2603 for host->guest notification. The hypercall definition uses the diag instruction for issuing a hypercall. The parameters are written in R2-R7, the hypercall number is written in R1. This is similar to the system call ABI (svc) which can use R1 for the number and R2-R6 for the parameters.

This patch introduces interpretation of some diagnose instruction intercepts. Diagnose is our classic architected way of doing a hypercall. This patch features the following diagnose codes: - vm storage size, that tells the guest about its memory layout - time slice end, which is used by the guest to indicate that it waits for a lock and thus cannot use up its time slice in a useful way - ipl functions, which a guest can use to reset and reboot itself In order to implement ipl functions, we also introduce an exit reason that causes userspace to perform various resets on the virtual machine. All resets are described in the principles of operation book, except KVM_S390_RESET_IPL which causes a reboot of the machine.

This patch introduces in-kernel handling of _some_ sigp interprocessor signals (similar to ipi). kvm_s390_handle_sigp() decodes the sigp instruction and calls individual handlers depending on the operation requested: - sigp sense tries to retrieve information such as existence or running state of the remote cpu - sigp emergency sends an external interrupt to the remove cpu - sigp stop stops a remove cpu - sigp stop store status stops a remote cpu, and stores its entire internal state to the cpus lowcore - sigp set arch sets the architecture mode of the remote cpu. setting to ESAME (s390x 64bit) is accepted, setting to ESA/S390 (s390, 31 or 24 bit) is denied, all others are passed to userland - sigp set prefix sets the prefix register of a remote cpu For implementation of this, the stop intercept indication starts to get reused on purpose: a set of action bits defines what to do once a cpu gets stopped: ACTION_STOP_ON_STOP really stops the cpu when a stop intercept is recognized ACTION_STORE_ON_STOP stores the cpu status to lowcore when a stop intercept is recognized Acked-by: NMartin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NChristian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NCarsten Otte <cotte@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NCarsten Otte <cotte@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

This patch contains the s390 interrupt subsystem (similar to in kernel apic) including timer interrupts (similar to in-kernel-pit) and enabled wait (similar to in kernel hlt). In order to achieve that, this patch also introduces intercept handling for instruction intercepts, and it implements load control instructions. This patch introduces an ioctl KVM_S390_INTERRUPT which is valid for both the vm file descriptors and the vcpu file descriptors. In case this ioctl is issued against a vm file descriptor, the interrupt is considered floating. Floating interrupts may be delivered to any virtual cpu in the configuration. The following interrupts are supported: SIGP STOP - interprocessor signal that stops a remote cpu SIGP SET PREFIX - interprocessor signal that sets the prefix register of a (stopped) remote cpu INT EMERGENCY - interprocessor interrupt, usually used to signal need_reshed and for smp_call_function() in the guest. PROGRAM INT - exception during program execution such as page fault, illegal instruction and friends RESTART - interprocessor signal that starts a stopped cpu INT VIRTIO - floating interrupt for virtio signalisation INT SERVICE - floating interrupt for signalisations from the system service processor struct kvm_s390_interrupt, which is submitted as ioctl parameter when injecting an interrupt, also carrys parameter data for interrupts along with the interrupt type. Interrupts on s390 usually have a state that represents the current operation, or identifies which device has caused the interruption on s390. kvm_s390_handle_wait() does handle waitpsw in two flavors: in case of a disabled wait (that is, disabled for interrupts), we exit to userspace. In case of an enabled wait we set up a timer that equals the cpu clock comparator value and sleep on a wait queue.

This path introduces handling of sie intercepts in three flavors: Intercepts are either handled completely in-kernel by kvm_handle_sie_intercept(), or passed to userspace with corresponding data in struct kvm_run in case kvm_handle_sie_intercept() returns -ENOTSUPP. In case of partial execution in kernel with the need of userspace support, kvm_handle_sie_intercept() may choose to set up struct kvm_run and return -EREMOTE. The trivial intercept reasons are handled in this patch: handle_noop() just does nothing for intercepts that don't require our support at all handle_stop() is called when a cpu enters stopped state, and it drops out to userland after updating our vcpu state handle_validity() faults in the cpu lowcore if needed, or passes the request to userland Acked-by: NMartin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NChristian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NCarsten Otte <cotte@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

This patch contains the port of Qumranet's kvm kernel module to IBM zSeries (aka s390x, mainframe) architecture. It uses the mainframe's virtualization instruction SIE to run virtual machines with up to 64 virtual CPUs each. This port is only usable on 64bit host kernels, and can only run 64bit guest kernels. However, running 31bit applications in guest userspace is possible. The following source files are introduced by this patch arch/s390/kvm/kvm-s390.c similar to arch/x86/kvm/x86.c, this implements all arch callbacks for kvm. __vcpu_run calls back into sie64a to enter the guest machine context arch/s390/kvm/sie64a.S assembler function sie64a, which enters guest context via SIE, and switches world before and after that include/asm-s390/kvm_host.h contains all vital data structures needed to run virtual machines on the mainframe include/asm-s390/kvm.h defines kvm_regs and friends for user access to guest register content arch/s390/kvm/gaccess.h functions similar to uaccess to access guest memory arch/s390/kvm/kvm-s390.h header file for kvm-s390 internals, extended by later patches Acked-by: NMartin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NChristian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NHeiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NCarsten Otte <cotte@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

This patch changes the s390 memory management defintions to use the pgste field for dirty and reference bit tracking of host and guest code. Usually on s390, dirty and referenced are tracked in storage keys, which belong to the physical page. This changes with virtualization: The guest and host dirty/reference bits are defined to be the logical OR of the values for the mapping and the physical page. This patch implements the necessary changes in pgtable.h for s390. There is a common code change in mm/rmap.c, the call to page_test_and_clear_young must be moved. This is a no-op for all architecture but s390. page_referenced checks the referenced bits for the physiscal page and for all mappings: o The physical page is checked with page_test_and_clear_young. o The mappings are checked with ptep_test_and_clear_young and friends. Without pgstes (the current implementation on Linux s390) the physical page check is implemented but the mapping callbacks are no-ops because dirty and referenced are not tracked in the s390 page tables. The pgstes introduces guest and host dirty and reference bits for s390 in the host mapping. These mapping must be checked before page_test_and_clear_young resets the reference bit.

The SIE instruction on s390 uses the 2nd half of the page table page to virtualize the storage keys of a guest. This patch offers the s390_enable_sie function, which reorganizes the page tables of a single-threaded process to reserve space in the page table: s390_enable_sie makes sure that the process is single threaded and then uses dup_mm to create a new mm with reorganized page tables. The old mm is freed and the process has now a page status extended field after every page table. Code that wants to exploit pgstes should SELECT CONFIG_PGSTE. This patch has a small common code hit, namely making dup_mm non-static. Edit (Carsten): I've modified Martin's patch, following Jeremy Fitzhardinge's review feedback. Now we do have the prototype for dup_mm in include/linux/sched.h. Following Martin's suggestion, s390_enable_sie() does now call task_lock() to prevent race against ptrace modification of mm_users.

Newer s390 models have a breaking-event-address-recording register. Each time an instruction causes a break in the sequential instruction execution, the address is saved in that hardware register. On a program interrupt the address is copied to the lowcore address 272-279, which makes it software accessible. This patch changes the program check handler and the stack overflow checker to copy the value into the pt_regs argument. The oops output is enhanced to show the last known breaking address. It might give additional information if the stack trace is corrupted. The feature is only available on 64 bit. The new oops output looks like: [---------snip----------] Modules linked in: vmcp sunrpc qeth_l2 dm_mod qeth ccwgroup CPU: 2 Not tainted 2.6.24zlive-host #8 Process modprobe (pid: 4788, task: 00000000bf3d8718, ksp: 00000000b2b0b8e0) Krnl PSW : 0704200180000000 000003e000020028 (vmcp_init+0x28/0xe4 [vmcp]) R:0 T:1 IO:1 EX:1 Key:0 M:1 W:0 P:0 AS:0 CC:2 PM:0 EA:3 Krnl GPRS: 0000000004000002 000003e000020000 0000000000000000 0000000000000001 000000000015734c ffffffffffffffff 000003e0000b3b00 0000000000000000 000003e00007ca30 00000000b5bb5d40 00000000b5bb5800 000003e0000b3b00 000003e0000a2000 00000000003ecf50 00000000b2b0bd50 00000000b2b0bcb0 Krnl Code: 000003e000020018: c0c000040ff4 larl %r12,3e0000a2000 000003e00002001e: e3e0f0000024 stg %r14,0(%r15) 000003e000020024: a7f40001 brc 15,3e000020026 >000003e000020028: e310c0100004 lg %r1,16(%r12) 000003e00002002e: c020000413dc larl %r2,3e0000a27e6 000003e000020034: c0a00004aee6 larl %r10,3e0000b5e00 000003e00002003a: a7490001 lghi %r4,1 000003e00002003e: a75900f0 lghi %r5,240 Call Trace: ([<000000000014b300>] blocking_notifier_call_chain+0x2c/0x40) [<000000000015735c>] sys_init_module+0x19d8/0x1b08 [<0000000000110afc>] sysc_noemu+0x10/0x16 [<000002000011cda2>] 0x2000011cda2 Last Breaking-Event-Address: [<000003e000020024>] vmcp_init+0x24/0xe4 [vmcp] [---------snip----------] Signed-off-by: NChristian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NMartin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NHeiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com>

If vertical cpu polarization is active then the hypervisor will dispatch certain cpus for a longer time than other cpus for maximum performance. For example if a guest would have three virtual cpus, each of them with a share of 33 percent, then in case of vertical cpu polarization all of the processing time would be combined to a single cpu which would run all the time, while the other two cpus would get nearly no cpu time. There are three different types of vertical cpus: high, medium and low. Low cpus hardly get any real cpu time, while high cpus get a full real cpu. Medium cpus get something in between. In order to switch between the two possible modes (default is horizontal) a 0 for horizontal polarization or a 1 for vertical polarization must be written to the dispatching sysfs attribute: /sys/devices/system/cpu/dispatching The polarization of each single cpu can be figured out by the polarization sysfs attribute of each cpu: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/polarization horizontal, vertical:high, vertical:medium, vertical:low or unknown. When switching polarization the polarization attribute may contain the value unknown until the configuration change is done and the kernel has figured out the new polarization of each cpu. Note that running a system with different types of vertical cpus may result in significant performance regressions. If possible only one type of vertical cpus should be used. All other cpus should be offlined. Signed-off-by: NMartin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NHeiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com>

Rather than add a zillion <asm/kvm.h>s, export kvm. only if the arch actually supports it. Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com> which makes this an 2.6.25 regression. One way of solving the issue is to enhance Kbuild, but Avi and David conviced me, that changing headers_install is not the way to go. This patch changes the definition for linux/kvm.h to unifdef-y. If unifdef-y is used for linux/kvm.h "make headers_check" will fail on all architectures without asm/kvm.h. Therefore, this patch also provides asm/kvm.h on all architectures.

Add CONFIG_HAVE_KRETPROBES to the arch/<arch>/Kconfig file for relevant architectures with kprobes support. This facilitates easy handling of in-kernel modules (like samples/kprobes/kretprobe_example.c) that depend on kretprobes being present in the kernel. Thanks to Sam Ravnborg for helping make the patch more lean. Per Mathieu's suggestion, added CONFIG_KRETPROBES and fixed up dependencies.

Add support for different number of page table levels dependent on the highest address used for a process. This will cause a 31 bit process to use a two level page table instead of the four level page table that is the default after the pud has been introduced. Likewise a normal 64 bit process will use three levels instead of four. Only if a process runs out of the 4 tera bytes which can be addressed with a three level page table the fourth level is dynamically added. Then the process can use up to 8 peta byte.

With the new space saving spinlock_t and a non-debug configuration the struct page only has 32 bytes for 31 bit s390. The causes an overflow in the calculation of VMEM_MAX_PHYS which renders the kernel unbootable. Signed-off-by: NMartin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

Background: I've implemented 1K/2K page tables for s390. These sub-page page tables are required to properly support the s390 virtualization instruction with KVM. The SIE instruction requires that the page tables have 256 page table entries (pte) followed by 256 page status table entries (pgste). The pgstes are only required if the process is using the SIE instruction. The pgstes are updated by the hardware and by the hypervisor for a number of reasons, one of them is dirty and reference bit tracking. To avoid wasting memory the standard pte table allocation should return 1K/2K (31/64 bit) and 2K/4K if the process is using SIE. Problem: Page size on s390 is 4K, page table size is 1K or 2K. That means the s390 version for pte_alloc_one cannot return a pointer to a struct page. Trouble is that with the CONFIG_HIGHPTE feature on x86 pte_alloc_one cannot return a pointer to a pte either, since that would require more than 32 bit for the return value of pte_alloc_one (and the pte * would not be accessible since its not kmapped). Solution: The only solution I found to this dilemma is a new typedef: a pgtable_t. For s390 pgtable_t will be a (pte *) - to be introduced with a later patch. For everybody else it will be a (struct page *). The additional problem with the initialization of the ptl lock and the NR_PAGETABLE accounting is solved with a constructor pgtable_page_ctor and a destructor pgtable_page_dtor. The page table allocation and free functions need to call these two whenever a page table page is allocated or freed. pmd_populate will get a pgtable_t instead of a struct page pointer. To get the pgtable_t back from a pmd entry that has been installed with pmd_populate a new function pmd_pgtable is added. It replaces the pmd_page call in free_pte_range and apply_to_pte_range.
