      KVM: X86: Boost queue head vCPU to mitigate lock waiter preemption · 266e85a5
      Wanpeng Li authored
      Commit 11752adb (locking/pvqspinlock: Implement hybrid PV queued/unfair locks)
      introduces hybrid PV queued/unfair locks
       - queued mode (no starvation)
       - unfair mode (good performance on not heavily contended lock)
      The lock waiter goes into the unfair mode especially in VMs with over-commit
      vCPUs since increaing over-commitment increase the likehood that the queue
      head vCPU may have been preempted and not actively spinning.
      
      However, reschedule queue head vCPU timely to acquire the lock still can get
      better performance than just depending on lock stealing in over-subscribe
      scenario.
      
      Testing on 80 HT 2 socket Xeon Skylake server, with 80 vCPUs VM 80GB RAM:
      ebizzy -M
                   vanilla     boosting    improved
       1VM          23520        25040         6%
       2VM           8000        13600        70%
       3VM           3100         5400        74%
      
      The lock holder vCPU yields to the queue head vCPU when unlock, to boost queue
      head vCPU which is involuntary preemption or the one which is voluntary halt
      due to fail to acquire the lock after a short spin in the guest.

      Documentation: move Documentation/virtual to Documentation/virt · 2f5947df
      Christoph Hellwig authored
      Renaming docs seems to be en vogue at the moment, so fix on of the
      grossly misnamed directories.  We usually never use "virtual" as
      a shortcut for virtualization in the kernel, but always virt,
      as seen in the virt/ top-level directory.  Fix up the documentation
      to match that.

      KVM: nVMX: do not use dangling shadow VMCS after guest reset · 88dddc11
      Paolo Bonzini authored
      If a KVM guest is reset while running a nested guest, free_nested will
      disable the shadow VMCS execution control in the vmcs01.  However,
      on the next KVM_RUN vmx_vcpu_run would nevertheless try to sync
      the VMCS12 to the shadow VMCS which has since been freed.
      
      This causes a vmptrld of a NULL pointer on my machime, but Jan reports
      the host to hang altogether.  Let's see how much this trivial patch fixes.

      KVM: Boost vCPUs that are delivering interrupts · d73eb57b
      Wanpeng Li authored
      Inspired by commit 9cac38dd (KVM/s390: Set preempted flag during
      vcpu wakeup and interrupt delivery), we want to also boost not just
      lock holders but also vCPUs that are delivering interrupts. Most
      smp_call_function_many calls are synchronous, so the IPI target vCPUs
      are also good yield candidates.  This patch introduces vcpu->ready to
      boost vCPUs during wakeup and interrupt delivery time; unlike s390 we do
      not reuse vcpu->preempted so that voluntarily preempted vCPUs are taken
      into account by kvm_vcpu_on_spin, but vmx_vcpu_pi_put is not affected
      (VT-d PI handles voluntary preemption separately, in pi_pre_block).

      KVM: SVM: Fix detection of AMD Errata 1096 · 118154bd
      Liran Alon authored
      When CPU raise #NPF on guest data access and guest CR4.SMAP=1, it is
      possible that CPU microcode implementing DecodeAssist will fail
      to read bytes of instruction which caused #NPF. This is AMD errata
      1096 and it happens because CPU microcode reading instruction bytes
      incorrectly attempts to read code as implicit supervisor-mode data
      accesses (that is, just like it would read e.g. a TSS), which are
      susceptible to SMAP faults. The microcode reads CS:RIP and if it is
      a user-mode address according to the page tables, the processor
      gives up and returns no instruction bytes.  In this case,
      GuestIntrBytes field of the VMCB on a VMEXIT will incorrectly
      return 0 instead of the correct guest instruction bytes.
      
      Current KVM code attemps to detect and workaround this errata, but it
      has multiple issues:
      
      1) It mistakenly checks if guest CR4.SMAP=0 instead of guest CR4.SMAP=1,
      which is required for encountering a SMAP fault.
      
      2) It assumes SMAP faults can only occur when guest CPL==3.
      However, in case guest CR4.SMEP=0, the guest can execute an instruction
      which reside in a user-accessible page with CPL<3 priviledge. If this
      instruction raise a #NPF on it's data access, then CPU DecodeAssist
      microcode will still encounter a SMAP violation.  Even though no sane
      OS will do so (as it's an obvious priviledge escalation vulnerability),
      we still need to handle this semanticly correct in KVM side.
      
      Note that (2) *is* a useful optimization, because CR4.SMAP=1 is an easy
      triggerable condition and guests usually enable SMAP together with SMEP.
      If the vCPU has CR4.SMEP=1, the errata could indeed be encountered onlt
      at guest CPL==3; otherwise, the CPU would raise a SMEP fault to guest
      instead of #NPF.  We keep this condition to avoid false positives in
      the detection of the errata.
      
      In addition, to avoid future confusion and improve code readbility,
      include details of the errata in code and not just in commit message.

      KVM: LAPIC: Inject timer interrupt via posted interrupt · 0c5f81da
      Wanpeng Li authored
      Dedicated instances are currently disturbed by unnecessary jitter due
      to the emulated lapic timers firing on the same pCPUs where the
      vCPUs reside.  There is no hardware virtual timer on Intel for guest
      like ARM, so both programming timer in guest and the emulated timer fires
      incur vmexits.  This patch tries to avoid vmexit when the emulated timer
      fires, at least in dedicated instance scenario when nohz_full is enabled.
      
      In that case, the emulated timers can be offload to the nearest busy
      housekeeping cpus since APICv has been found for several years in server
      processors. The guest timer interrupt can then be injected via posted interrupts,
      which are delivered by the housekeeping cpu once the emulated timer fires.
      
      The host should tuned so that vCPUs are placed on isolated physical
      processors, and with several pCPUs surplus for busy housekeeping.
      If disabled mwait/hlt/pause vmexits keep the vCPUs in non-root mode,
      ~3% redis performance benefit can be observed on Skylake server, and the
      number of external interrupt vmexits drops substantially.  Without patch

         - Various small cleanups to the ag small allocator.
      
         - Support cgroup-aware writeback
      
         - libxfs refactoring for mkfs cleanup

         - Split out a generic inode walk mechanism from the bulkstat code,
           hook up all the internal users to use the walking code, then clean
           up bulkstat to serve only the bulkstat ioctls.
      
         - Add a multithreaded iwalk implementation to speed up quotacheck on
           fast storage with many CPUs.
      
         - Remove unnecessary return values in logging teardown functions.
      
         - Supplement the bstat and inogrp structures with new bulkstat and
           inumbers structures that have all the fields we need for v5
           filesystem features and none of the padding problems of their
           predecessors.
      
         - Wire up new ioctls that use the new structures with a much simpler
           bulk_ireq structure at the head instead of the pointerhappy mess we
           had before.
      
         - Enable userspace to constrain bulkstat returns to a single AG or a
           single special inode so that we can phase out a lot of geometry
           guesswork in userspace.

      Pull common SETFLAGS/FSSETXATTR parameter checking from Darrick Wong:
       "Here's a patch series that sets up common parameter checking functions
        for the FS_IOC_SETFLAGS and FS_IOC_FSSETXATTR ioctl implementations.
      
        The goal here is to reduce the amount of behaviorial variance between
        the filesystems where those ioctls originated (ext2 and XFS,
        respectively) and everybody else.
      
         - Standardize parameter checking for the SETFLAGS and FSSETXATTR
           ioctls (which were the file attribute setters for ext4 and xfs and
           have now been hoisted to the vfs)
      
         - Only allow the DAX flag to be set on files and directories"
