So 6 years ago we made the FPU fpstate dynamically allocated:
aa283f4927 ("x86, fpu: lazy allocation of FPU area - v5")
61c4628b53 ("x86, fpu: split FPU state from task struct - v5")
In hindsight this was a mistake:
- it complicated context allocation failure handling, such as:
/* kthread execs. TODO: cleanup this horror. */
if (WARN_ON(fpstate_alloc_init(fpu)))
force_sig(SIGKILL, tsk);
- it caused us to enable irqs in fpu__restore():
local_irq_enable();
/*
* does a slab alloc which can sleep
*/
if (fpstate_alloc_init(fpu)) {
/*
* ran out of memory!
*/
do_group_exit(SIGKILL);
return;
}
local_irq_disable();
- it (slightly) slowed down task creation/destruction by adding
slab allocation/free pattens.
- it made access to context contents (slightly) slower by adding
one more pointer dereference.
The motivation for the dynamic allocation was two-fold:
- reduce memory consumption by non-FPU tasks
- allocate and handle only the necessary amount of context for
various XSAVE processors that have varying hardware frame
sizes.
These days, with glibc using SSE memcpy by default and GCC optimizing
for SSE/AVX by default, the scope of FPU using apps on an x86 system is
much larger than it was 6 years ago.
For example on a freshly installed Fedora 21 desktop system, with a
recent kernel, all non-kthread tasks have used the FPU shortly after
bootup.
Also, even modern embedded x86 CPUs try to support the latest vector
instruction set - so they'll too often use the larger xstate frame
sizes.
So remove the dynamic allocation complication by embedding the FPU
fpstate in task_struct again. This should make the FPU a lot more
accessible to all sorts of atomic contexts.
We could still optimize for the xstate frame size in the future,
by moving the state structure to the last element of task_struct,
and allocating only a part of that.
This change is kept minimal by still keeping the ctx_alloc()/free()
routines (that now do nothing substantial) - we'll remove them in
the following patches.

So fpu_save_init() is a historic name that got its name when the only
way the FPU state was FNSAVE, which cleared (well, destroyed) the FPU
state after saving it.
Nowadays the name is misleading, because ever since the introduction of
FXSAVE (and more modern FPU saving instructions) the 'we need to reload
the FPU state' part is only true if there's a pending FPU exception [*],
which is almost never the case.
So rename it to copy_fpregs_to_fpstate() to make it clear what's
happening. Also add a few comments about why we cannot keep registers
in certain cases.
Also clean up the control flow a bit, to make it more apparent when
we are dropping/keeping FP registers, and to optimize the common
case (of keeping fpregs) some more.
[*] Probably not true anymore, modern instructions always leave the FPU
state intact, even if exceptions are pending: because pending FP
exceptions are posted on the next FP instruction, not asynchronously.
They were truly asynchronous back in the IRQ13 case, and we had to
synchronize with them, but that code is not working anymore: we don't
have IRQ13 mapped in the IDT anymore.
But a cleanup patch is obviously not the place to change subtle behavior.

'xsave.header::xstate_bv' is a misnomer - what does 'bv' stand for?
It probably comes from the 'XGETBV' instruction name, but I could
not find in the Intel documentation where that abbreviation comes
from. It could mean 'bit vector' - or something else?
But how about - instead of guessing about a weird name - we named
the field in an obvious and descriptive way that tells us exactly
what it does?
So rename it to 'xfeatures', which is a bitmask of the
xfeatures that are fpstate_active in that context structure.
Eyesore like:
fpu->state->xsave.xsave_hdr.xstate_bv |= XSTATE_FP;
is now much more readable:
fpu->state->xsave.header.xfeatures |= XSTATE_FP;
Which form is not just infinitely more readable, but is also
shorter as well.

Introduce a simple fpu->fpstate_active flag in the fpu context data structure
and use that instead of PF_USED_MATH in task->flags.
Testing for this flag byte should be slightly more efficient than
testing a bit in a bitmask, but the main advantage is that most
FPU functions can now be performed on a 'struct fpu' alone, they
don't need access to 'struct task_struct' anymore.
There's a slight linecount increase, mostly due to the 'fpu' local
variables and due to extra comments. The local variables will go away
once we move most of the FPU methods to pure 'struct fpu' parameters.

Currently KVM will clear the FPU bits in CR0.TS in the VMCS, and trap to
re-load them every time the guest accesses the FPU after a switch back into
the guest from the host.
This patch copies the x86 task switch semantics for FPU loading, with the
FPU loaded eagerly after first use if the system uses eager fpu mode,
or if the guest uses the FPU frequently.
In the latter case, after loading the FPU for 255 times, the fpu_counter
will roll over, and we will revert to loading the FPU on demand, until
it has been established that the guest is still actively using the FPU.
This mirrors the x86 task switch policy, which seems to work.

The kvmclock spec says that the host will increment a version field to
an odd number, then update stuff, then increment it to an even number.
The host is buggy and doesn't do this, and the result is observable
when one vcpu reads another vcpu's kvmclock data.
There's no good way for a guest kernel to keep its vdso from reading
a different vcpu's kvmclock data, but we don't need to care about
changing VCPUs as long as we read a consistent data from kvmclock.
(VCPU can change outside of this loop too, so it doesn't matter if we
return a value not fit for this VCPU.)

Dirty logging tracks sptes in 4k granularity, meaning that large sptes
have to be split. If live migration is successful, the guest in the
source machine will be destroyed and large sptes will be created in the
destination. However, the guest continues to run in the source machine
(for example if live migration fails), small sptes will remain around
and cause bad performance.
This patch introduce lazy collapsing of small sptes into large sptes.
The rmap will be scanned in ioctl context when dirty logging is stopped,
dropping those sptes which can be collapsed into a single large-page spte.
Later page faults will create the large-page sptes.

callers. The cached value is initialized in kvm_arch_vcpu_init() and
reloaded every time CPUID is updated by usermode. It is obvious that
these reloads occur infrequently.

The newly-added tracepoint shows the following results on
the tscdeadline_latency test:
qemu-kvm-8387 [002] 6425.558974: kvm_vcpu_wakeup: poll time 10407 ns
qemu-kvm-8387 [002] 6425.558984: kvm_vcpu_wakeup: poll time 0 ns
qemu-kvm-8387 [002] 6425.561242: kvm_vcpu_wakeup: poll time 10477 ns
qemu-kvm-8387 [002] 6425.561251: kvm_vcpu_wakeup: poll time 0 ns
and so on. This is because we need to go through kvm_vcpu_block again
after the timer IRQ is injected. Avoid it by polling once before
entering kvm_vcpu_block.
On my machine (Xeon E5 Sandy Bridge) this removes about 500 cycles (7%)
from the latency of the TSC deadline timer.

This patch introduces a new module parameter for the KVM module; when it
is present, KVM attempts a bit of polling on every HLT before scheduling
itself out via kvm_vcpu_block.
This parameter helps a lot for latency-bound workloads---in particular
I tested it with O_DSYNC writes with a battery-backed disk in the host.
In this case, writes are fast (because the data doesn't have to go all
the way to the platters) but they cannot be merged by either the host or
the guest. KVM's performance here is usually around 30% of bare metal,
or 50% if you use cache=directsync or cache=writethrough (these
parameters avoid that the guest sends pointless flush requests, and
at the same time they are not slow because of the battery-backed cache).
The bad performance happens because on every halt the host CPU decides
to halt itself too. When the interrupt comes, the vCPU thread is then
migrated to a new physical CPU, and in general the latency is horrible
because the vCPU thread has to be scheduled back in.
With this patch performance reaches 60-65% of bare metal and, more
important, 99% of what you get if you use idle=poll in the guest. This
means that the tunable gets rid of this particular bottleneck, and more
work can be done to improve performance in the kernel or QEMU.
Of course there is some price to pay; every time an otherwise idle vCPUs
is interrupted by an interrupt, it will poll unnecessarily and thus
impose a little load on the host. The above results were obtained with
a mostly random value of the parameter (500000), and the load was around
1.5-2.5% CPU usage on one of the host's core for each idle guest vCPU.
The patch also adds a new stat, /sys/kernel/debug/kvm/halt_successful_poll,
that can be used to tune the parameter. It counts how many HLT
instructions received an interrupt during the polling period; each
successful poll avoids that Linux schedules the VCPU thread out and back
in, and may also avoid a likely trip to C1 and back for the physical CPU.
While the VM is idle, a Linux 4 VCPU VM halts around 10 times per second.
Of these halts, almost all are failed polls. During the benchmark,
instead, basically all halts end within the polling period, except a more
or less constant stream of 50 per second coming from vCPUs that are not
running the benchmark. The wasted time is thus very low. Things may
be slightly different for Windows VMs, which have a ~10 ms timer tick.
The effect is also visible on Marcelo's recently-introduced latency
test for the TSC deadline timer. Though of course a non-RT kernel has
awful latency bounds, the latency of the timer is around 8000-10000 clock
cycles compared to 20000-120000 without setting halt_poll_ns. For the TSC
deadline timer, thus, the effect is both a smaller average latency and
a smaller variance.

For the hrtimer which emulates the tscdeadline timer in the guest,
add an option to advance expiration, and busy spin on VM-entry waiting

This allows achieving low latencies in cyclictest (or any scenario
which requires strict timing regarding timer expiration).
Reduces average cyclictest latency from 12us to 8us
on Core i5 desktop.
Note: this option requires tuning to find the appropriate value
for a particular hardware/guest combination. One method is to measure the
average delay between apic_timer_fn and VM-entry.
Another method is to start with 1000ns, and increase the value
in say 500ns increments until avg cyclictest numbers stop decreasing.

Note, that this may happen on the first DR access, even if the host does not

This patch moves the DR4/5 checks from __kvm_set_dr/_kvm_get_dr to handle_dr.
The emulator already checks DR4/5 availability in check_dr_read. Nested
virutalization related calls to kvm_set_dr/kvm_get_dr would not like to inject

Upon WRMSR, the CPU should inject #GP if a non-canonical value (address) is
written to certain MSRs. The behavior is "almost" identical for AMD and Intel
(ignoring MSRs that are not implemented in either architecture since they would
anyhow #GP). However, IA32_SYSENTER_ESP and IA32_SYSENTER_EIP cause #GP if
non-canonical address is written on Intel but not on AMD (which ignores the top
32-bits).
Accordingly, this patch injects a #GP on the MSRs which behave identically on
Intel and AMD. To eliminate the differences between the architecutres, the
value which is written to IA32_SYSENTER_ESP and IA32_SYSENTER_EIP is turned to
canonical value before writing instead of injecting a #GP.
Some references from Intel and AMD manuals:
According to Intel SDM description of WRMSR instruction #GP is expected on
WRMSR "If the source register contains a non-canonical address and ECX
specifies one of the following MSRs: IA32_DS_AREA, IA32_FS_BASE, IA32_GS_BASE,
IA32_KERNEL_GS_BASE, IA32_LSTAR, IA32_SYSENTER_EIP, IA32_SYSENTER_ESP."
According to AMD manual instruction manual:
LSTAR/CSTAR (SYSCALL): "The WRMSR instruction loads the target RIP into the

Pull percpu consistent-ops changes from Tejun Heo:
"Way back, before the current percpu allocator was implemented, static
and dynamic percpu memory areas were allocated and handled separately
and had their own accessors. The distinction has been gone for many
years now; however, the now duplicate two sets of accessors remained
with the pointer based ones - this_cpu_*() - evolving various other
operations over time. During the process, we also accumulated other
inconsistent operations.
This pull request contains Christoph's patches to clean up the
duplicate accessor situation. __get_cpu_var() uses are replaced with
with this_cpu_ptr() and __this_cpu_ptr() with raw_cpu_ptr().
Unfortunately, the former sometimes is tricky thanks to C being a bit
messy with the distinction between lvalues and pointers, which led to
a rather ugly solution for cpumask_var_t involving the introduction of
this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr().
This converts most of the uses but not all. Christoph will follow up
with the remaining conversions in this merge window and hopefully
remove the obsolete accessors"

In order to make the APIC access page migratable, stop pinning it in
memory.
And because the APIC access page is not pinned in memory, we can
remove kvm_arch->apic_access_page. When we need to write its
physical address into vmcs, we use gfn_to_page() to get its page
struct, which is needed to call page_to_phys(); the page is then
immediately unpinned.

Currently, the APIC access page is pinned by KVM for the entire life
of the guest. We want to make it migratable in order to make memory
hot-unplug available for machines that run KVM.
This patch prepares to handle this in generic code, through a new
request bit (that will be set by the MMU notifier) and a new hook
that is called whenever the request bit is processed.

Commit fc3a9157d3 ("KVM: X86: Don't report L2 emulation failures to
user-space") disabled the reporting of L2 (nested guest) emulation failures to
userspace due to race-condition between a vmexit and the instruction emulator.
The same rational applies also to userspace applications that are permitted by
the guest OS to access MMIO area or perform PIO.
This patch extends the current behavior - of injecting a #UD instead of
reporting it to userspace - also for guest userspace code.

kvm_arch->ept_identity_pagetable holds the ept identity pagetable page. But
it is never used to refer to the page at all.
In vcpu initialization, it indicates two things:
1. indicates if ept page is allocated
2. indicates if a memory slot for identity page is initialized
Actually, kvm_arch->ept_identity_pagetable_done is enough to tell if the ept
identity pagetable is initialized. So we can remove ept_identity_pagetable.
NOTE: In the original code, ept identity pagetable page is pinned in memroy.
As a result, it cannot be migrated/hot-removed. After this patch, since
kvm_arch->ept_identity_pagetable is removed, ept identity pagetable page
is no longer pinned in memory. And it can be migrated/hot-removed.

Currently, if a permission error happens during the translation of
the final GPA to HPA, walk_addr_generic returns 0 but does not fill
in walker->fault. To avoid this, add an x86_exception* argument
to the translate_gpa function, and let it fill in walker->fault.
The nested_page_fault field will be true, since the walk_mmu is the
nested_mmu and translate_gpu instead operates on the "outer" (NPT)
instance.

If a nested page fault happens during emulation, we will inject a vmexit,
not a page fault. However because writeback happens after the injection,
we will write ctxt->eip from L2 into the L1 EIP. We do not write back
if an instruction caused an interception vmexit---do the same for page
faults.

will break if the guest maxphyaddr is higher than the host's (which
sometimes happens depending on your hardware and how QEMU is
configured).

__get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of
them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x). This calculates
the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor
based on an offset.
Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current
processors percpu area. __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when
writing data or on the right side of an assignment.
__get_cpu_var() is defined as :
#define __get_cpu_var(var) (*this_cpu_ptr(&(var)))
__get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However, store
and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on
other platforms) to avoid the address calculation.
this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a
percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu
variables.
This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address
calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that
use the offset. Thereby address calculations are avoided and less registers
are used when code is generated.
Transformations done to __get_cpu_var()
1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y);
2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y[20]);
int *x = __get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
int *x = this_cpu_ptr(y);
3. Retrieve the content of the current processors instance of a per cpu
variable.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
int x = __get_cpu_var(y)
Converts to
int x = __this_cpu_read(y);
4. Retrieve the content of a percpu struct
DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct mystruct, y);
struct mystruct x = __get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
memcpy(&x, this_cpu_ptr(&y), sizeof(x));
5. Assignment to a per cpu variable
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y)
__get_cpu_var(y) = x;
Converts to
__this_cpu_write(y, x);
6. Increment/Decrement etc of a per cpu variable
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
__get_cpu_var(y)++
Converts to
__this_cpu_inc(y)
