2010-08-01KVM: x86 emulator: introduce read cacheGleb Natapov
Introduce read cache which is needed for instruction that require more then one exit to userspace. After returning from userspace the instruction will be re-executed with cached read value. Signed-off-by: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
2010-08-01KVM: VMX: Avoid writing HOST_CR0 every entryAvi Kivity
cr0.ts may change between entries, so we copy cr0 to HOST_CR0 before each entry. That is slow, so instead, set HOST_CR0 to have TS set unconditionally (which is a safe value), and issue a clts() just before exiting vcpu context if the task indeed owns the fpu. Saves ~50 cycles/exit. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

2010-08-01KVM: x86: avoid unnecessary bitmap allocation when memslot is cleanTakuya Yoshikawa
Although we always allocate a new dirty bitmap in x86's get_dirty_log(), it is only used as a zero-source of copy_to_user() and freed right after that when memslot is clean. This patch uses clear_user() instead of doing this unnecessary zero-source allocation. Performance improvement: as we can expect easily, the time needed to allocate a bitmap is completely reduced. In my test, the improved ioctl was about 4 to 10 times faster than the original one for clean slots. Furthermore, reducing memory allocations and copies will produce good effects to caches too.

2010-08-01KVM: Avoid killing userspace through guest SRAO MCE on unmapped pagesHuang Ying
In common cases, guest SRAO MCE will cause corresponding poisoned page be un-mapped and SIGBUS be sent to QEMU-KVM, then QEMU-KVM will relay the MCE to guest OS. But it is reported that if the poisoned page is accessed in guest after unmapping and before MCE is relayed to guest OS, userspace will be killed. The reason is as follows. Because poisoned page has been un-mapped, guest access will cause guest exit and kvm_mmu_page_fault will be called. kvm_mmu_page_fault can not get the poisoned page for fault address, so kernel and user space MMIO processing is tried in turn. In user MMIO processing, poisoned page is accessed again, then userspace is killed by force_sig_info. To fix the bug, kvm_mmu_page_fault send HWPOISON signal to QEMU-KVM and do not try kernel and user space MMIO processing for poisoned page.

2010-07-31ARM: AMBA: Add pclk support to AMBA bus infrastructureRussell King
Some platforms gate the pclk (APB - the bus - clock) to the peripherals for power saving, along with the functional clock. When devices are accessed without pclk enabled, the kernel will oops. This gives them two options: 1. Leave all clocks on all the time. 2. Attempt to gate pclk along with the functional clock. (With some hardware, pclk and the functional clock are gated by a single bit in a register.) (1) has the disadvantage that it causes increased power usage, which is bad news for battery operated devices. (2) can lead to kernel oops if registers are accessed without the functional clock being enabled. So, introduce the apb_pclk signal in such a way existing drivers don't need to be updated. Essentially, this means we guarantee that: 1. pclk will be enabled whenever the driver is bound to a device - from probe() to remove() time. 2. pclk will also be enabled when reading the primecell IDs from the device. In order to allow drivers to be incrementally updated to achieve greater power savings, we provide two additional calls to allow drivers to manage the pclk - amba_pclk_enable()/amba_pclk_disable().

2010-07-31padata: Remove padata_get_cpumaskSteffen Klassert
A function that copies the padata cpumasks to a user buffer is a bit error prone. The cpumask can change any time so we can't be sure to have the right cpumask when using this function. A user who is interested in the padata cpumasks should register to the padata cpumask notifier chain instead. Users of padata_get_cpumask are already updated, so we can remove it.

2010-07-31crypto: pcrypt - Update pcrypt cpumask according to the padata cpumask notifierSteffen Klassert

2010-07-31padata: Rename padata_alloc functionsSteffen Klassert

2010-07-30bonding: prevent sysfs from allowing arp monitoring with alb/tlbAndy Gospodarek
When using module options arp monitoring and balance-alb/balance-tlb are mutually exclusive options. Anytime balance-alb/balance-tlb are enabled mii monitoring is forced to 100ms if not set. When configuring via sysfs no checking is currently done. Handling these cases with sysfs has to be done a bit differently because we do not have all configuration information available at once. This patch will not allow a mode change to balance-alb/balance-tlb if arp_interval is already non-zero. It will also not allow the user to set a non-zero arp_interval value if the mode is already set to balance-alb/balance-tlb. They are still mutually exclusive on a first-come, first serve basis.

2010-07-30mm: fix ia64 crash when gcore reads gate areaHugh Dickins
Debian's ia64 autobuilders have been seeing kernel freeze or reboot when running the gdb testsuite (Debian bug 588574): dannf bisected to 2.6.32 62eede62dafb4a6633eae7ffbeb34c60dba5e7b1 "mm: ZERO_PAGE without PTE_SPECIAL"; and reproduced it with gdb's gcore on a simple target. I'd missed updating the gate_vma handling in __get_user_pages(): that happens to use vm_normal_page() (nowadays failing on the zero page), yet reported success even when it failed to get a page - boom when access_process_vm() tried to copy that to its intermediate buffer. Fix this, resisting cleanups: in particular, leave it for now reporting success when not asked to get any pages - very probably safe to change, but let's not risk it without testing exposure. Why did ia64 crash with 16kB pages, but succeed with 64kB pages? Because setup_gate() pads each 64kB of its gate area with zero pages.
