2019-04-16KVM: x86: avoid misreporting level-triggered irqs as edge-triggered in tracingVitaly Kuznetsov
In __apic_accept_irq() interface trig_mode is int and actually on some code paths it is set above u8: kvm_apic_set_irq() extracts it from 'struct kvm_lapic_irq' where trig_mode is u16. This is done on purpose as e.g. kvm_set_msi_irq() sets it to (1 << 15) & e->msi.data kvm_apic_local_deliver sets it to reg & (1 << 15). Fix the immediate issue by making 'tm' into u16. We may also want to adjust __apic_accept_irq() interface and use proper sizes for vector, level, trig_mode but this is not urgent.

2019-01-25KVM: x86: fix TRACE_INCLUDE_PATH and remove -I. header search pathsMasahiro Yamada
The header search path -I. in kernel Makefiles is very suspicious; it allows the compiler to search for headers in the top of $(srctree), where obviously no header file exists. The reason of having -I. here is to make the incorrectly set TRACE_INCLUDE_PATH working. As the comment block in include/trace/define_trace.h says, TRACE_INCLUDE_PATH should be a relative path to the define_trace.h Fix the TRACE_INCLUDE_PATH, and remove the iffy include paths.

2018-12-14x86/kvm/hyper-v: direct mode for synthetic timersVitaly Kuznetsov
Turns out Hyper-V on KVM (as of 2016) will only use synthetic timers if direct mode is available. With direct mode we notify the guest by asserting APIC irq instead of sending a SynIC message. The implementation uses existing vec_bitmap for letting lapic code know that we're interested in the particular IRQ's EOI request. We assume that the same APIC irq won't be used by the guest for both direct mode stimer and as sint source (especially with AutoEOI semantics). It is unclear how things should be handled if that's not true. Direct mode is also somewhat less expensive; in my testing stimer_send_msg() takes not less than 1500 cpu cycles and stimer_notify_direct() can usually be done in 300-400. WS2016 without Hyper-V, however, always sticks to non-direct version.

2018-10-17KVM: x86: hyperv: implement PV IPI send hypercallsVitaly Kuznetsov
Using hypercall for sending IPIs is faster because this allows to specify any number of vCPUs (even > 64 with sparse CPU set), the whole procedure will take only one VMEXIT. Current Hyper-V TLFS (v5.0b) claims that HvCallSendSyntheticClusterIpi hypercall can't be 'fast' (passing parameters through registers) but apparently this is not true, Windows always uses it as 'fast' so we need to support that.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

2016-06-16KVM: x86: support using the vmx preemption timer for tsc deadline timerYunhong Jiang
The VMX preemption timer can be used to virtualize the TSC deadline timer. The VMX preemption timer is armed when the vCPU is running, and a VMExit will happen if the virtual TSC deadline timer expires. When the vCPU thread is blocked because of HLT, KVM will switch to use an hrtimer, and then go back to the VMX preemption timer when the vCPU thread is unblocked. This solution avoids the complex OS's hrtimer system, and the host timer interrupt handling cost, replacing them with a little math (for guest->host TSC and host TSC->preemption timer conversion) and a cheaper VMexit. This benefits latency for isolated pCPUs. [A word about performance... Yunhong reported a 30% reduction in average latency from cyclictest. I made a similar test with tscdeadline_latency from kvm-unit-tests, and measured - ~20 clock cycles loss (out of ~3200, so less than 1% but still statistically significant) in the worst case where the test halts just after programming the TSC deadline timer - ~800 clock cycles gain (25% reduction in latency) in the best case where the test busy waits.

2016-04-13x86/vdso: Remove direct HPET access through the vDSOAndy Lutomirski
Allowing user code to map the HPET is problematic. HPET implementations are notoriously buggy, and there are probably many machines on which even MMIO reads from bogus HPET addresses are problematic. We have a report that the Dell Precision M2800 with: ACPI: HPET 0x00000000C8FE6238 000038 (v01 DELL CBX3 01072009 AMI. 00000005) is either so slow when accessing the HPET or actually hangs in some regard, causing soft lockups to be reported if users do unexpected things to the HPET. The vclock HPET code has also always been a questionable speedup. Accessing an HPET is exceedingly slow (on the order of several microseconds), so the added overhead in requiring a syscall to read the HPET is a small fraction of the total code of accessing it. To avoid future problems, let's just delete the code entirely. In the long run, this could actually be a speedup. Waiman Long as a patch to optimize the case where multiple CPUs contend for the HPET, but that won't help unless all the accesses are mediated by the kernel.

2013-06-27kvm: Add a tracepoint write_tsc_offsetYoshihiro YUNOMAE
Add a tracepoint write_tsc_offset for tracing TSC offset change. We want to merge ftrace's trace data of guest OSs and the host OS using TSC for timestamp in chronological order. We need "TSC offset" values for each guest when merge those because the TSC value on a guest is always the host TSC plus guest's TSC offset. If we get the TSC offset values, we can calculate the host TSC value for each guest events from the TSC offset and the event TSC value. The host TSC values of the guest events are used when we want to merge trace data of guests and the host in chronological order. (Note: the trace_clock of both the host and the guest must be set x86-tsc in this case) This tracepoint also records vcpu_id which can be used to merge trace data for SMP guests. A merge tool will read TSC offset for each vcpu, then the tool converts guest TSC values to host TSC values for each vcpu. TSC offset is stored in the VMCS by vmx_write_tsc_offset() or vmx_adjust_tsc_offset(). KVM executes the former function when a guest boots. The latter function is executed when kvm clock is updated. Only host can read TSC offset value from VMCS, so a host needs to output TSC offset value when TSC offset is changed. Since the TSC offset is not often changed, it could be overwritten by other frequent events while tracing. To avoid that, I recommend to use a special instance for getting this event: 1. set a instance before booting a guest # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances # mkdir tsc_offset # cd tsc_offset # echo x86-tsc > trace_clock # echo 1 > events/kvm/kvm_write_tsc_offset/enable 2. boot a guest Signed-off-by: Yoshihiro YUNOMAE <yoshihiro.yunomae.ez@hitachi.com> Cc: Joerg Roedel <joro@8bytes.org> Cc: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Cc: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: "H.

With master clock, a pvclock clock read calculates: ret = system_timestamp + [ (rdtsc + tsc_offset) - tsc_timestamp ] Where 'rdtsc' is the host TSC. system_timestamp and tsc_timestamp are unique, one tuple per VM: the "master clock".

2012-11-27KVM: x86: implement PVCLOCK_TSC_STABLE_BIT pvclock flagMarcelo Tosatti
KVM added a global variable to guarantee monotonicity in the guest. One of the reasons for that is that the time between 1. ktime_get_ts(&timespec); 2. rdtscll(tsc); Is variable. That is, given a host with stable TSC, suppose that two VCPUs read the same time via ktime_get_ts() above. The time required to execute 2. is not the same on those two instances executing in different VCPUS (cache misses, interrupts...). If the TSC value that is used by the host to interpolate when calculating the monotonic time is the same value used to calculate the tsc_timestamp value stored in the pvclock data structure, and a single <system_timestamp, tsc_timestamp> tuple is visible to all vcpus simultaneously, this problem disappears. See comment on top of pvclock_update_vm_gtod_copy for details. Monotonicity is then guaranteed by synchronicity of the host TSCs and guest TSCs. Set TSC stable pvclock flag in that case, allowing the guest to read clock from userspace. Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>

2012-06-28tracing/kvm: Use __print_hex() for kvm_emulate_insn tracepointNamhyung Kim
The kvm_emulate_insn tracepoint used __print_insn() for printing its instructions. However it makes the format of the event hard to parse as it reveals TP internals. Fortunately, kernel provides __print_hex for almost same purpose, we can use it instead of open coding it. The user-space can be changed to parse it later. That means raw kernel tracing will not be affected by this change: # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/ # cat events/kvm/kvm_emulate_insn/format name: kvm_emulate_insn ID: 29 format: ... print fmt: "%x:%llx:%s (%s)%s", REC->csbase, REC->rip, __print_hex(REC->insn, REC->len), \ __print_symbolic(REC->flags, { 0, "real" }, { (1 << 0) | (1 << 1), "vm16" }, \ { (1 << 0), "prot16" }, { (1 << 0) | (1 << 2), "prot32" }, { (1 << 0) | (1 << 3), "prot64" }), \ REC->failed ?

2012-06-25KVM: host side for eoi optimizationMichael S. Tsirkin
Implementation of PV EOI using shared memory. This reduces the number of exits an interrupt causes as much as by half. The idea is simple: there's a bit, per APIC, in guest memory, that tells the guest that it does not need EOI. We set it before injecting an interrupt and clear before injecting a nested one. Guest tests it using a test and clear operation - this is necessary so that host can detect interrupt nesting - and if set, it can skip the EOI MSR. There's a new MSR to set the address of said register in guest memory. Otherwise not much changed: - Guest EOI is not required - Register is tested & ISR is automatically cleared on exit For testing results see description of previous patch 'kvm_para: guest side for eoi avoidance'.

2011-09-25KVM: Use __print_symbolic() for vmexit tracepointsStefan Hajnoczi
The vmexit tracepoints format the exit_reason to make it human-readable. Since the exit_reason depends on the instruction set (vmx or svm), formatting is handled with ftrace_print_symbols_seq() by referring to the appropriate exit reason table. However, the ftrace_print_symbols_seq() function is not meant to be used directly in tracepoints since it does not export the formatting table which userspace tools like trace-cmd and perf use to format traces. In practice perf dies when formatting vmexit-related events and trace-cmd falls back to printing the numeric value (with extra formatting code in the kvm plugin to paper over this limitation). Other userspace consumers of vmexit-related tracepoints would be in similar trouble. To avoid significant changes to the kvm_exit tracepoint, this patch moves the vmx and svm exit reason tables into arch/x86/kvm/trace.h and selects the right table with __print_symbolic() depending on the instruction set. Note that __print_symbolic() is designed for exporting the formatting table to userspace and allows trace-cmd and perf to work.

2011-09-25KVM: Record instruction set in all vmexit tracepointsStefan Hajnoczi
The kvm_exit tracepoint recently added the isa argument to aid decoding exit_reason. The semantics of exit_reason depend on the instruction set (vmx or svm) and the isa argument allows traces to be analyzed on other machines. Add the isa argument to kvm_nested_vmexit and kvm_nested_vmexit_inject so these tracepoints can also be self-describing.

2011-01-12KVM: Add instruction-set-specific exit qualifications to kvm_exit traceAvi Kivity
The exit reason alone is insufficient to understand exactly why an exit occured; add ISA-specific trace parameters for additional information. Because fetching these parameters is expensive on vmx, and because these parameters are fetched even if tracing is disabled, we fetch the parameters via a callback instead of as traditional trace arguments.
