This does not show up on all compiler versions, so it sneaked into the first 4.3 pull request. The fix is to mimic the logic of the "print sptes" loop in the "fill array" loop. Then leaf and root can be both initialized unconditionally. Note that "leaf" now points to the first unused element of the array, not the last filled element. Reported-by:

The size of the Problem State Priority Boost Register is only 32 bits, but the kvm_vcpu_arch->pspb variable is declared as "ulong", ie. 64-bit. However, the assembler code accesses this variable with 32-bit accesses, and the KVM_REG_PPC_PSPB macro is defined with SIZE_U32, too, so that the current code is broken on big endian hosts: kvmppc_get_one_reg_hv() will only return zero for this register since it is using the wrong half of the pspb variable. Let's fix this problem by adjusting the size of the pspb field in the kvm_vcpu_arch structure. Signed-off-by:

The code that handles the case when we receive a H_DOORBELL interrupt has a comment which says "Hypervisor doorbell - exit only if host IPI flag set". However, the current code does not actually check if the host IPI flag is set. This is due to a comparison instruction that got missed. As a result, the current code performs the exit to host only if some sibling thread or a sibling sub-core is exiting to the host. This implies that, an IPI sent to a sibling core in (subcores-per-core != 1) mode will be missed by the host unless the sibling core is on the exit path to the host. This patch adds the missing comparison operation which will ensure that when HOST_IPI flag is set, we unconditionally exit to the host.

The current dynamic micro-threading code has a race due to which a secondary thread naps when it is supposed to be running a vcpu. As a side effect of this, on a guest exit, the primary thread in kvmppc_wait_for_nap() finds that this secondary thread hasn't cleared its vcore pointer. This results in "CPU X seems to be stuck!" warnings. The race is possible since the primary thread on exiting the guests only waits for all the secondaries to clear its vcore pointer. It subsequently expects the secondary threads to enter nap while it unsplits the core. A secondary thread which hasn't yet entered the nap will loop in kvm_no_guest until its vcore pointer and the do_nap flag are unset. Once the core has been unsplit, a new vcpu thread can grab the core and set the do_nap flag *before* setting the vcore pointers of the secondary. As a result, the secondary thread will now enter nap via kvm_unsplit_nap instead of running the guest vcpu. Fix this by setting the do_nap flag after setting the vcore pointer in the PACA of the secondary in kvmppc_run_core. Also, ensure that a secondary thread doesn't nap in kvm_unsplit_nap when the vcore pointer in its PACA struct is set. Fixes: b4deba5cSigned-off-by:

In 64 bit kernels, the Fixed Point Exception Register (XER) is a 64 bit field (e.g. in kvm_regs and kvm_vcpu_arch) and in most places it is accessed as such. This patch corrects places where it is accessed as a 32 bit field by a 64 bit kernel. In some cases this is via a 32 bit load or store instruction which, depending on endianness, will cause either the lower or upper 32 bits to be missed. In another case it is cast as a u32, causing the upper 32 bits to be cleared. This patch corrects those places by extending the access methods to 64 bits. Signed-off-by:

Whenever a vcore state is VCORE_PREEMPT we need to be counting stolen time for it. This currently isn't the case when we have a vcore that no longer has any runnable threads in it but still has a runner task, so we do an explicit call to kvmppc_core_start_stolen() in that case. Signed-off-by:

When a vcore gets preempted, we put it on the preempted vcore list for the current CPU. The runner task then calls schedule() and comes back some time later and takes itself off the list. We need to be careful to lock the list that it was put onto, which may not be the list for the current CPU since the runner task may have moved to another CPU. Signed-off-by:

This adds implementations for the H_CLEAR_REF (test and clear reference bit) and H_CLEAR_MOD (test and clear changed bit) hypercalls. When clearing the reference or change bit in the guest view of the HPTE, we also have to clear it in the real HPTE so that we can detect future references or changes. When we do so, we transfer the R or C bit value to the rmap entry for the underlying host page so that kvm_age_hva_hv(), kvm_test_age_hva_hv() and kvmppc_hv_get_dirty_log() know that the page has been referenced and/or changed. These hypercalls are not used by Linux guests. These implementations have been tested using a FreeBSD guest. Signed-off-by:

This fixes a bug in the tracking of pages that get modified by the guest. If the guest creates a large-page HPTE, writes to memory somewhere within the large page, and then removes the HPTE, we only record the modified state for the first normal page within the large page, when in fact the guest might have modified some other normal page within the large page. To fix this we use some unused bits in the rmap entry to record the order (log base 2) of the size of the page that was modified, when removing an HPTE. Then in kvm_test_clear_dirty_npages() we use that order to return the correct number of modified pages. The same thing could in principle happen when removing a HPTE at the host's request, i.e. when paging out a page, except that we never page out large pages, and the guest can only create large-page HPTEs if the guest RAM is backed by large pages. However, we also fix this case for the sake of future-proofing. The reference bit is also subject to the same loss of information. We don't make the same fix here for the reference bit because there isn't an interface for userspace to find out which pages the guest has referenced, whereas there is one for userspace to find out which pages the guest has modified. Because of this loss of information, the kvm_age_hva_hv() and kvm_test_age_hva_hv() functions might incorrectly say that a page has not been referenced when it has, but that doesn't matter greatly because we never page or swap out large pages.

The reference (R) and change (C) bits in a HPT entry can be set by hardware at any time up until the HPTE is invalidated and the TLB invalidation sequence has completed. This means that when removing a HPTE, we need to read the HPTE after the invalidation sequence has completed in order to obtain reliable values of R and C. The code in kvmppc_do_h_remove() used to do this. However, commit 6f22bd32 ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Make HTAB code LE host aware") removed the read after invalidation as a side effect of other changes. This restores the read of the HPTE after invalidation. The user-visible effect of this bug would be that when migrating a guest, there is a small probability that a page modified by the guest and then unmapped by the guest might not get re-transmitted and thus the destination might end up with a stale copy of the page.

This builds on the ability to run more than one vcore on a physical core by using the micro-threading (split-core) modes of the POWER8 chip. Previously, only vcores from the same VM could be run together, and (on POWER8) only if they had just one thread per core. With the ability to split the core on guest entry and unsplit it on guest exit, we can run up to 8 vcpu threads from up to 4 different VMs, and we can run multiple vcores with 2 or 4 vcpus per vcore. Dynamic micro-threading is only available if the static configuration of the cores is whole-core mode (unsplit), and only on POWER8. To manage this, we introduce a new kvm_split_mode struct which is shared across all of the subcores in the core, with a pointer in the paca on each thread. In addition we extend the core_info struct to have information on each subcore. When deciding whether to add a vcore to the set already on the core, we now have two possibilities: (a) piggyback the vcore onto an existing subcore, or (b) start a new subcore. Currently, when any vcpu needs to exit the guest and switch to host virtual mode, we interrupt all the threads in all subcores and switch the core back to whole-core mode. It may be possible in future to allow some of the subcores to keep executing in the guest while subcore 0 switches to the host, but that is not implemented in this patch. This adds a module parameter called dynamic_mt_modes which controls which micro-threading (split-core) modes the code will consider, as a bitmap. In other words, if it is 0, no micro-threading mode is considered; if it is 2, only 2-way micro-threading is considered; if it is 4, only 4-way, and if it is 6, both 2-way and 4-way micro-threading mode will be considered. The default is 6. With this, we now have secondary threads which are the primary thread for their subcore and therefore need to do the MMU switch. These threads will need to be started even if they have no vcpu to run, so we use the vcore pointer in the PACA rather than the vcpu pointer to trigger them. It is now possible for thread 0 to find that an exit has been requested before it gets to switch the subcore state to the guest. In that case we haven't added the guest's timebase offset to the timebase, so we need to be careful not to subtract the offset in the guest exit path. In fact we just skip the whole path that switches back to host context, since we haven't switched to the guest context. Signed-off-by:

When running a virtual core of a guest that is configured with fewer threads per core than the physical cores have, the extra physical threads are currently unused. This makes it possible to use them to run one or more other virtual cores from the same guest when certain conditions are met. This applies on POWER7, and on POWER8 to guests with one thread per virtual core. (It doesn't apply to POWER8 guests with multiple threads per vcore because they require a 1-1 virtual to physical thread mapping in order to be able to use msgsndp and the TIR.) The idea is that we maintain a list of preempted vcores for each physical cpu (i.e. each core, since the host runs single-threaded). Then, when a vcore is about to run, it checks to see if there are any vcores on the list for its physical cpu that could be piggybacked onto this vcore's execution. If so, those additional vcores are put into state VCORE_PIGGYBACK and their runnable VCPU threads are started as well as the original vcore, which is called the master vcore. After the vcores have exited the guest, the extra ones are put back onto the preempted list if any of their VCPUs are still runnable and not idle. This means that vcpu->arch.ptid is no longer necessarily the same as the physical thread that the vcpu runs on. In order to make it easier for code that wants to send an IPI to know which CPU to target, we now store that in a new field in struct vcpu_arch, called thread_cpu. Reviewed-by:

Merge tag 'kvm-s390-next-20150812' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvms390/linux into HEAD KVM: s390: fix and feature for kvm/next (4.3) 1. error handling for irq routes 2. Gracefully handle STP time changes s390 supports a protocol for syncing different systems via the stp protocol that will steer the TOD clocks to keep all participating clocks below the round trip time between the system. In case of specific out of sync event Linux can opt-in to accept sync checks. This will result in non-monotonic jumps of the TOD clock, which Linux will correct via time offsets to keep the wall clock time monotonic. Now: KVM guests also base their time on the host TOD, so we need to fixup the offset for them as well.

Virtual interrupts mapped to a HW interrupt should only be triggered from inside the kernel. Otherwise, you could end up confusing the kernel (and the GIC's) state machine. Rearrange the injection path so that kvm_vgic_inject_irq is used for non-mapped interrupts, and kvm_vgic_inject_mapped_irq is used for mapped interrupts. The latter should only be called from inside the kernel (timer, irqfd). Reviewed-by:

To allow a HW interrupt to be injected into a guest, we lookup the guest virtual interrupt in the irq_phys_map list, and if we have a match, encode both interrupts in the LR. We also mark the interrupt as "active" at the host distributor level. On guest EOI on the virtual interrupt, the host interrupt will be deactivated. Reviewed-by:
