xen/sndif: Sync up with the canonical definition in Xen

2018-04-17T12:26:33Z

This is the sync up with the canonical definition of the sound protocol in Xen: 1. Protocol version was referenced in the protocol description, but missed its definition. Fixed by adding a constant for current protocol version. 2. Some of the request descriptions have "reserved" fields missed: fixed by adding corresponding entries. 3. Extend the size of the requests and responses to 64 octets. Bump protocol version to 2. 4. Add explicit back and front synchronization In order to provide explicit synchronization between backend and frontend the following changes are introduced in the protocol: - add new ring buffer for sending asynchronous events from backend to frontend to report number of bytes played by the frontend (XENSND_EVT_CUR_POS) - introduce trigger events for playback control: start/stop/pause/resume - add "req-" prefix to event-channel and ring-ref to unify naming of the Xen event channels for requests and events 5. Add explicit back and front parameter negotiation In order to provide explicit stream parameter negotiation between backend and frontend the following changes are introduced in the protocol: add XENSND_OP_HW_PARAM_QUERY request to read/update configuration space for the parameters given: request passes desired parameter's intervals/masks and the response to this request returns allowed min/max intervals/masks to be used.

xen/pvh: Indicate XENFEAT_linux_rsdp_unrestricted to Xen

2018-04-10T13:22:22Z

Pre-4.17 kernels ignored start_info's rsdp_paddr pointer and instead relied on finding RSDP in standard location in BIOS RO memory. This has worked since that's where Xen used to place it. However, with recent Xen change (commit 4a5733771e6f ("libxl: put RSDP for PVH guest near 4GB")) it prefers to keep RSDP at a "non-standard" address. Even though as of commit b17d9d1df3c3 ("x86/xen: Add pvh specific rsdp address retrieval function") Linux is able to find RSDP, for back-compatibility reasons we need to indicate to Xen that we can handle this, an we do so by setting XENFEAT_linux_rsdp_unrestricted flag in ELF notes. (Also take this opportunity and sync features.h header file with Xen) Signed-off-by: Boris Ostrovsky Reviewed-by: Juergen Gross Reviewed-by: Wei Liu

xen/balloon: Mark unallocated host memory as UNUSABLE

2017-12-20T18:16:20Z

Commit f5775e0b6116 ("x86/xen: discard RAM regions above the maximum reservation") left host memory not assigned to dom0 as available for memory hotplug. Unfortunately this also meant that those regions could be used by others. Specifically, commit fa564ad96366 ("x86/PCI: Enable a 64bit BAR on AMD Family 15h (Models 00-1f, 30-3f, 60-7f)") may try to map those addresses as MMIO. To prevent this mark unallocated host memory as E820_TYPE_UNUSABLE (thus effectively reverting f5775e0b6116) and keep track of that region as a hostmem resource that can be used for the hotplug.

x86/xen/time: setup vcpu 0 time info page

2017-11-08T21:33:14Z

In order to support pvclock vdso on xen we need to setup the time info page for vcpu 0 and register the page with Xen using the VCPUOP_register_vcpu_time_memory_area hypercall. This hypercall will also forcefully update the pvti which will set some of the necessary flags for vdso. Afterwards we check if it supports the PVCLOCK_TSC_STABLE_BIT flag which is mandatory for having vdso/vsyscall support. And if so, it will set the cpu 0 pvti that will be later on used when mapping the vdso image. The xen headers are also updated to include the new hypercall for registering the secondary vcpu_time_info struct.

xen: limit grant v2 interface to the v1 functionality

2017-11-06T20:50:17Z

As there is currently no user for sub-page grants or transient grants remove that functionality. This at once makes it possible to switch from grant v2 to grant v1 without restrictions, as there is no loss of functionality other than the limited frame number width related to the switch.

xen: re-introduce support for grant v2 interface

2017-11-06T20:50:17Z

The grant v2 support was removed from the kernel with commit 438b33c7145ca8a5131a30c36d8f59bce119a19a ("xen/grant-table: remove support for V2 tables") as the higher memory footprint of v2 grants resulted in less grants being possible for a kernel compared to the v1 grant interface. As machines with more than 16TB of memory are expected to be more common in the near future support of grant v2 is mandatory in order to be able to run a Xen pv domain at any memory location. So re-add grant v2 support basically by reverting above commit. Signed-off-by: Juergen Gross Reviewed-by: Boris Ostrovsky Signed-off-by: Boris Ostrovsky

xen: support priv-mapping in an HVM tools domain

2017-11-03T20:53:53Z

If the domain has XENFEAT_auto_translated_physmap then use of the PV- specific HYPERVISOR_mmu_update hypercall is clearly incorrect. This patch adds checks in xen_remap_domain_gfn_array() and xen_unmap_domain_gfn_array() which call through to the approprate xlate_mmu function if the feature is present. A check is also added to xen_remap_domain_gfn_range() to fail with -EOPNOTSUPP since this should not be used in an HVM tools domain.

xen/time: do not decrease steal time after live migration on xen

2017-11-02T20:49:41Z

After guest live migration on xen, steal time in /proc/stat (cpustat[CPUTIME_STEAL]) might decrease because steal returned by xen_steal_lock() might be less than this_rq()->prev_steal_time which is derived from previous return value of xen_steal_clock(). For instance, steal time of each vcpu is 335 before live migration. cpu 198 0 368 200064 1962 0 0 1340 0 0 cpu0 38 0 81 50063 492 0 0 335 0 0 cpu1 65 0 97 49763 634 0 0 335 0 0 cpu2 38 0 81 50098 462 0 0 335 0 0 cpu3 56 0 107 50138 374 0 0 335 0 0 After live migration, steal time is reduced to 312. cpu 200 0 370 200330 1971 0 0 1248 0 0 cpu0 38 0 82 50123 500 0 0 312 0 0 cpu1 65 0 97 49832 634 0 0 312 0 0 cpu2 39 0 82 50167 462 0 0 312 0 0 cpu3 56 0 107 50207 374 0 0 312 0 0 Since runstate times are cumulative and cleared during xen live migration by xen hypervisor, the idea of this patch is to accumulate runstate times to global percpu variables before live migration suspend. Once guest VM is resumed, xen_get_runstate_snapshot_cpu() would always return the sum of new runstate times and previously accumulated times stored in global percpu variables. Comment above HYPERVISOR_suspend() has been removed as it is inaccurate: the call can return an error code (e.g., possibly -EPERM in the future). Similar and more severe issue would impact prior linux 4.8-4.10 as discussed by Michael Las at https://0xstubs.org/debugging-a-flaky-cpu-steal-time-counter-on-a-paravirtualized-xen-guest, which would overflow steal time and lead to 100% st usage in top command for linux 4.8-4.10. A backport of this patch would fix that issue.
