fcf634098c Cross Memory Attach
The basic idea behind cross memory attach is to allow MPI programs doing
intra-node communication to do a single copy of the message rather than a
double copy of the message via shared memory.

The following patch attempts to achieve this by allowing a destination
process, given an address and size from a source process, to copy memory
directly from the source process into its own address space via a system
call.  There is also a symmetrical ability to copy from the current
process's address space into a destination process's address space.

- Use of /proc/pid/mem has been considered, but there are issues with
  using it:
  - Does not allow for specifying iovecs for both src and dest, assuming
    preadv or pwritev was implemented either the area read from or
  written to would need to be contiguous.
  - Currently mem_read allows only processes who are currently
  ptrace'ing the target and are still able to ptrace the target to read
  from the target. This check could possibly be moved to the open call,
  but its not clear exactly what race this restriction is stopping
  (reason  appears to have been lost)
  - Having to send the fd of /proc/self/mem via SCM_RIGHTS on unix
  domain socket is a bit ugly from a userspace point of view,
  especially when you may have hundreds if not (eventually) thousands
  of processes  that all need to do this with each other
  - Doesn't allow for some future use of the interface we would like to
  consider adding in the future (see below)
  - Interestingly reading from /proc/pid/mem currently actually
  involves two copies! (But this could be fixed pretty easily)

As mentioned previously use of vmsplice instead was considered, but has
problems.  Since you need the reader and writer working co-operatively if
the pipe is not drained then you block.  Which requires some wrapping to
do non blocking on the send side or polling on the receive.  In all to all
communication it requires ordering otherwise you can deadlock.  And in the
example of many MPI tasks writing to one MPI task vmsplice serialises the
copying.

There are some cases of MPI collectives where even a single copy interface
does not get us the performance gain we could.  For example in an
MPI_Reduce rather than copy the data from the source we would like to
instead use it directly in a mathops (say the reduce is doing a sum) as
this would save us doing a copy.  We don't need to keep a copy of the data
from the source.  I haven't implemented this, but I think this interface
could in the future do all this through the use of the flags - eg could
specify the math operation and type and the kernel rather than just
copying the data would apply the specified operation between the source
and destination and store it in the destination.

Although we don't have a "second user" of the interface (though I've had
some nibbles from people who may be interested in using it for intra
process messaging which is not MPI).  This interface is something which
hardware vendors are already doing for their custom drivers to implement
fast local communication.  And so in addition to this being useful for
OpenMPI it would mean the driver maintainers don't have to fix things up
when the mm changes.

There was some discussion about how much faster a true zero copy would
go. Here's a link back to the email with some testing I did on that:

http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=130105930902915&w=2

There is a basic man page for the proposed interface here:

http://ozlabs.org/~cyeoh/cma/process_vm_readv.txt

This has been implemented for x86 and powerpc, other architecture should
mainly (I think) just need to add syscall numbers for the process_vm_readv
and process_vm_writev. There are 32 bit compatibility versions for
64-bit kernels.

For arch maintainers there are some simple tests to be able to quickly
verify that the syscalls are working correctly here:

1448c721e4 compat: sync compat_stats with statfs.
This was found by inspection while tracking a similar
bug in compat_statfs64, that has been fixed in mainline
since decemeber.

- This fixes a bug where not all of the f_spare fields
  were cleared on mips and s390.
- Add the f_flags field to struct compat_statfs
- Copy f_flags to userspace in case someone cares.
- Use __clear_user to copy the f_spare field to userspace
  to ensure that all of the elements of f_spare are cleared.
  On some architectures f_spare is has 5 ints and on some
  architectures f_spare only has 4 ints.  Which makes
  the previous technique of clearing each int individually
  broken.

I don't expect anyone actually uses the old statfs system
call anymore but if they do let them benefit from having
the compat and the native version working the same.

Fix up conflicts in arch/x86/kernel/kprobes.c manually.

Ingo's tree did the insane "add volatile to const array", which just
doesn't make sense ("volatile const"?).  But we could remove the const

optimize it away..

Also fix up kernel/trace/ring_buffer.c non-data-conflicts manually: the
reader_lock has been turned into a raw lock by the core locking merge,
and there was a new user of it introduced in this perf core merge.  Make

506ed6b53e x86, intel: Output microcode revision in /proc/cpuinfo
I got a request to make it easier to determine the microcode
update level on Intel CPUs. This patch adds a new "microcode"
field to /proc/cpuinfo.

The microcode level is also outputed on fatal machine checks
together with the other CPUID model information.

I removed the respective code from the microcode update driver,
it just reads the field from cpu_data. Also when the microcode
is updated it fills in the new values too.

I had to add a memory barrier to native_cpuid to prevent it
being optimized away when the result is not used.

This turns out to clean up further code which already got this
information manually. This is done in followon patches.

b227e23399 x86, nmi: Add in logic to handle multiple events and unknown NMIs
Previous patches allow the NMI subsystem to process multipe NMI events
in one NMI.  As previously discussed this can cause issues when an event
triggered another NMI but is processed in the current NMI.  This causes the
next NMI to go unprocessed and become an 'unknown' NMI.

To handle this, we first have to flag whether or not the NMI handler handled
more than one event or not.  If it did, then there exists a chance that
the next NMI might be already processed.  Once the NMI is flagged as a
candidate to be swallowed, we next look for a back-to-back NMI condition.

This is determined by looking at the %rip from pt_regs.  If it is the same
as the previous NMI, it is assumed the cpu did not have a chance to jump
back into a non-NMI context and execute code and instead handled another NMI.

If both of those conditions are true then we will swallow any unknown NMI.

There still exists a chance that we accidentally swallow a real unknown NMI,
but for now things seem better.

An optimization has also been added to the nmi notifier rountine.  Because x86
can latch up to one NMI while currently processing an NMI, we don't have to
worry about executing _all_ the handlers in a standalone NMI.  The idea is
if multiple NMIs come in, the second NMI will represent them.  For those
back-to-back NMI cases, we have the potentail to drop NMIs.  Therefore only
execute all the handlers in the second half of a detected back-to-back NMI.

9c48f1c629 x86, nmi: Wire up NMI handlers to new routines
Just convert all the files that have an nmi handler to the new routines.
Most of it is straight forward conversion.  A couple of places needed some
tweaking like kgdb which separates the debug notifier from the nmi handler
and mce removes a call to notify_die.

[Thanks to Ying for finding out the history behind that mce call

https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/5/27/114

And Boris responding that he would like to remove that call because of it

https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/9/21/163]

The things that get converted are the registeration/unregistration routines
and the nmi handler itself has its args changed along with code removal
to check which list it is on (most are on one NMI list except for kgdb
which has both an NMI routine and an NMI Unknown routine).

c9126b2ee8 x86, nmi: Create new NMI handler routines
The NMI handlers used to rely on the notifier infrastructure.  This worked
great until we wanted to support handling multiple events better.

One of the key ideas to the nmi handling is to process _all_ the handlers for
each NMI.  The reason behind this switch is because NMIs are edge triggered.
If enough NMIs are triggered, then they could be lost because the cpu can
only latch at most one NMI (besides the one currently being processed).

In order to deal with this we have decided to process all the NMI handlers
for each NMI.  This allows the handlers to determine if they recieved an
event or not (the ones that can not determine this will be left to fend
for themselves on the unknown NMI list).

As a result of this change it is now possible to have an extra NMI that
was destined to be received for an already processed event.  Because the
event was processed in the previous NMI, this NMI gets dropped and becomes
an 'unknown' NMI.  This of course will cause printks that scare people.

However, we prefer to have extra NMIs as opposed to losing NMIs and as such
are have developed a basic mechanism to catch most of them.  That will be
a later patch.

To accomplish this idea, I unhooked the nmi handlers from the notifier
routines and created a new mechanism loosely based on doIRQ.  The reason
for this is the notifier routines have a couple of shortcomings.  One we
could't guarantee all future NMI handlers used NOTIFY_OK instead of
NOTIFY_STOP.  Second, we couldn't keep track of the number of events being
handled in each routine (most only handle one, perf can handle more than one).
Third, I wanted to eventually display which nmi handlers are registered in
the system in /proc/interrupts to help see who is generating NMIs.

The patch below just implements the new infrastructure but doesn't wire it up
yet (that is the next patch).  Its design is based on doIRQ structs and the
atomic notifier routines.  So the rcu stuff in the patch isn't entirely untested
(as the notifier routines have soaked it) but it should be double checked in
case I copied the code wrong.

144d31e6f1 perf, intel: Use GO/HO bits in perf-ctr
Intel does not have guest/host-only bit in perf counters like AMD
does.  To support GO/HO bits KVM needs to switch EVENTSELn values
(or PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL if available) at a guest entry. If a counter is
configured to count only in a guest mode it stays disabled in a host,
but VMX is configured to switch it to enabled value during guest entry.

This patch adds GO/HO tracking to Intel perf code and provides interface
for KVM to get a list of MSRs that need to be switched on a guest entry.

Only cpus with architectural PMU (v1 or later) are supported with this
patch.  To my knowledge there is not p6 models with VMX but without
architectural PMU and p4 with VMX are rare and the interface is general
enough to support them if need arise.

0930bba674 xen: modify kernel mappings corresponding to granted pages
If we want to use granted pages for AIO, changing the mappings of a user
vma and the corresponding p2m is not enough, we also need to update the
kernel mappings accordingly.
Currently this is only needed for pages that are created for user usages
through /dev/xen/gntdev. As in, pages that have been in use by the
kernel and use the P2M will not need this special mapping.
However there are no guarantees that in the future the kernel won't
start accessing pages through the 1:1 even for internal usage.

In order to avoid the complexity of dealing with highmem, we allocated
the pages lowmem.
We issue a HYPERVISOR_grant_table_op right away in
m2p_add_override and we remove the mappings using another
HYPERVISOR_grant_table_op in m2p_remove_override.
Considering that m2p_add_override and m2p_remove_override are called
once per page we use multicalls and hypercall batching.

Use the kmap_op pointer directly as argument to do the mapping as it is
guaranteed to be present up until the unmapping is done.
Before issuing any unmapping multicalls, we need to make sure that the
mapping has already being done, because we need the kmap->handle to be
set correctly.

With the old stack pointer no longer stored in a callee-saved

to describe the memory location where it is being found. This
requires the use of .cfi_escape (allowing arbitrary byte streams
to be emitted into .eh_frame), as there is no

guest.

Note that one change, of one line in kvm_arch_vcpu_load, is made redundant
by a different patch sent by Zachary Amsden (and not yet applied):
kvm_arch_vcpu_load() should not read the guest TSC, and if it didn't, of

0d460ffc09 KVM: Use __print_symbolic() for vmexit tracepoints
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.
