When VIRTIO_F_RING_EVENT_IDX is negotiated, virtio devices can
use virtqueue_enable_cb_delayed_packed to reduce the number of device
interrupts. At the moment, this is the case for virtio-net when the
napi_tx module parameter is set to false.
In this case, the virtio driver selects an event offset and expects that
the device will send a notification when rolling over the event offset
in the ring. However, if this roll-over happens before the event
suppression structure update, the notification won't be sent. To address
this race condition the driver needs to check wether the device rolled
over the offset after updating the event suppression structure.
With VIRTIO_F_RING_PACKED, the virtio driver did this by reading the
flags field of the descriptor at the specified offset.
Unfortunately, checking at the event offset isn't reliable: if
descriptors are chained (e.g. when INDIRECT is off) not all descriptors
are overwritten by the device, so it's possible that the device skipped
the specific descriptor driver is checking when writing out used
descriptors. If this happens, the driver won't detect the race condition
and will incorrectly expect the device to send a notification.
For virtio-net, the result will be a TX queue stall, with the
transmission getting blocked forever.
With the packed ring, it isn't easy to find a location which is
guaranteed to change upon the roll-over, except the next device
descriptor, as described in the spec:
Writes of device and driver descriptors can generally be
reordered, but each side (driver and device) are only required to
poll (or test) a single location in memory: the next device descriptor after
the one they processed previously, in circular order.
while this might be sub-optimal, let's do exactly this for now.

The function virtqueue_add_split() DMA-maps the scatterlist buffers. In
case a mapping error occurs the already mapped buffers must be unmapped.
This happens by jumping to the 'unmap_release' label.
In case of indirect descriptors the release is wrong and may leak kernel
memory. Because the implementation assumes that the head descriptor is
already mapped it starts iterating over the descriptor list starting
from the head descriptor. However for indirect descriptors the head
descriptor is never mapped in case of an error.
The fix is to initialize the start index with zero in case of indirect
descriptors and use the 'desc' pointer directly for iterating over the
descriptor chain.

creates a nd_region object with the persistent memory

'virtio-pmem' driver uses existing functionality of pmem

vring_create_virtqueue() allows the caller to specify via the
may_reduce_num parameter whether the vring code is allowed to
allocate a smaller ring than specified.
However, the split ring allocation code tries to allocate a
smaller ring on allocation failure regardless of what the
caller specified. This may cause trouble for e.g. virtio-pci
in legacy mode, which does not support ring resizing. (The
packed ring code does not resize in any case.)
Let's fix this by bailing out immediately in the split ring code
if the requested size cannot be allocated and may_reduce_num has
not been specified.
While at it, fix a typo in the usage instructions.

A virtio transport is free to implement some of the callbacks in
virtio_config_ops in a matter that they cannot be called from
atomic context (e.g. virtio-ccw, which maps a lot of the callbacks
to channel I/O, which is an inherently asynchronous mechanism).
This can be very surprising for developers using the much more
common virtio-pci transport, just to find out that things break
when used on s390.
The documentation for virtio_config_ops now contains a comment
explaining this, but it makes sense to add a might_sleep() annotation
to various wrapper functions in the virtio core to avoid surprises
later.
Note that annotations are NOT added to two classes of calls:
- direct calls from device drivers (all current callers should be
fine, however)
- calls which clearly won't be made from atomic context (such as
those ultimately coming in via the driver core)

If this feature is negotiated, the driver must use the barriers
suitable for hardware devices. Otherwise, the device and driver
are assumed to be implemented in software, that is they can be
assumed to run on identical CPUs in an SMP configuration. Thus
a weaker form of memory barriers is sufficient to yield better
performance.
It is recommended that an add-in card based PCI device offers
this feature for portability. The device will fail to operate
further or will operate in a slower emulation mode if this
feature is offered but not accepted.

Negotiation of the VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_FREE_PAGE_HINT feature indicates the
support of reporting hints of guest free pages to host via virtio-balloon.
Currenlty, only free page blocks of MAX_ORDER - 1 are reported. They are
obtained one by one from the mm free list via the regular allocation
function.
Host requests the guest to report free page hints by sending a new cmd id
to the guest via the free_page_report_cmd_id configuration register. When
the guest starts to report, it first sends a start cmd to host via the
free page vq, which acks to host the cmd id received. When the guest
finishes reporting free pages, a stop cmd is sent to host via the vq.
Host may also send a stop cmd id to the guest to stop the reporting.
VIRTIO_BALLOON_CMD_ID_STOP: Host sends this cmd to stop the guest
reporting.
VIRTIO_BALLOON_CMD_ID_DONE: Host sends this cmd to tell the guest that
the reported pages are ready to be freed.
Why does the guest free the reported pages when host tells it is ready to
free?
This is because freeing pages appears to be expensive for live migration.
free_pages() dirties memory very quickly and makes the live migraion not
converge in some cases. So it is good to delay the free_page operation
when the migration is done, and host sends a command to guest about that.
Why do we need the new VIRTIO_BALLOON_CMD_ID_DONE, instead of reusing
VIRTIO_BALLOON_CMD_ID_STOP?
This is because live migration is usually done in several rounds. At the
end of each round, host needs to send a VIRTIO_BALLOON_CMD_ID_STOP cmd to
the guest to stop (or say pause) the reporting. The guest resumes the
reporting when it receives a new command id at the beginning of the next
round. So we need a new cmd id to distinguish between "stop reporting" and
"ready to free the reported pages".

Merge tag 'for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mst/vhost
Pull virtio updates from Michael Tsirkin:
"virtio, vhost: fixes, tweaks
No new features but a bunch of tweaks such as switching balloon from
oom notifier to shrinker"
* tag 'for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mst/vhost:
vhost/scsi: increase VHOST_SCSI_PREALLOC_PROT_SGLS to 2048
vhost: allow vhost-scsi driver to be built-in
virtio: pci-legacy: Validate queue pfn
virtio: mmio-v1: Validate queue PFN
virtio_balloon: replace oom notifier with shrinker
virtio-balloon: kzalloc the vb struct
virtio-balloon: remove BUG() in init_vqs
Legacy PCI over virtio uses a 32bit PFN for the queue. If the
queue pfn is too large to fit in 32bits, which we could hit on
arm64 systems with 52bit physical addresses (even with 64K page
size), we simply miss out a proper link to the other side of
the queue.
Add a check to validate the PFN, rather than silently breaking
the devices.

The OOM notifier is getting deprecated to use for the reasons:
- As a callout from the oom context, it is too subtle and easy to
generate bugs and corner cases which are hard to track;
- It is called too late (after the reclaiming has been performed).
Drivers with large amuont of reclaimable memory is expected to
release them at an early stage of memory pressure;
- The notifier callback isn't aware of oom contrains;
Link: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/7/12/314
This patch replaces the virtio-balloon oom notifier with a shrinker
to release balloon pages on memory pressure. The balloon pages are
given back to mm adaptively by returning the number of pages that the
reclaimer is asking for (i.e. sc->nr_to_scan).
Currently the max possible value of sc->nr_to_scan passed to the balloon
shrinker is SHRINK_BATCH, which is 128. This is smaller than the
limitation that only VIRTIO_BALLOON_ARRAY_PFNS_MAX (256) pages can be
returned via one invocation of leak_balloon. But this patch still
considers the case that SHRINK_BATCH or shrinker->batch could be changed
to a value larger than VIRTIO_BALLOON_ARRAY_PFNS_MAX, which will need to
do multiple invocations of leak_balloon.
Historically, the feature VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_DEFLATE_ON_OOM has been used
to release balloon pages on OOM. We continue to use this feature bit for
the shrinker, so the shrinker is only registered when this feature bit
has been negotiated with host.

Zero all the vb fields at alloaction, so that we don't need to
zero-initialize each field one by one later.

It's a bit overkill to use BUG when failing to add an entry to the
stats_vq in init_vqs. So remove it and just return the error to the
caller to bail out nicely.

Make vp_set_vq_affinity() take a cpumask instead of taking a single CPU.
If there are fewer queues than cores, queue affinity should be able to
map to multiple cores.

It happens in the pagefault and results in double pagefault
during compacting pages when memory allocation fails.
Analysed the vmcore, the page leads to second pagefault is corrupted
with _mapcount=-256, but private=0.
It's caused by the race between migration and ballooning, and lock
missing in virtballoon_migratepage() of virtio_balloon driver.
This patch fix the bug.
