xen: gntdev: fix common struct sg_table related issues

2020-11-05T10:51:20+00:00

[ Upstream commit d1749eb1ab85e04e58c29e58900e3abebbdd6e82 ] The Documentation/DMA-API-HOWTO.txt states that the dma_map_sg() function returns the number of the created entries in the DMA address space. However the subsequent calls to the dma_sync_sg_for_{device,cpu}() and dma_unmap_sg must be called with the original number of the entries passed to the dma_map_sg(). struct sg_table is a common structure used for describing a non-contiguous memory buffer, used commonly in the DRM and graphics subsystems. It consists of a scatterlist with memory pages and DMA addresses (sgl entry), as well as the number of scatterlist entries: CPU pages (orig_nents entry) and DMA mapped pages (nents entry). It turned out that it was a common mistake to misuse nents and orig_nents entries, calling DMA-mapping functions with a wrong number of entries or ignoring the number of mapped entries returned by the dma_map_sg() function. To avoid such issues, lets use a common dma-mapping wrappers operating directly on the struct sg_table objects and use scatterlist page iterators where possible. This, almost always, hides references to the nents and orig_nents entries, making the code robust, easier to follow and copy/paste safe.

xen/events: block rogue events for some time

2020-11-05T10:51:08+00:00

commit 5f7f77400ab5b357b5fdb7122c3442239672186c upstream. In order to avoid high dom0 load due to rogue guests sending events at high frequency, block those events in case there was no action needed in dom0 to handle the events. This is done by adding a per-event counter, which set to zero in case an EOI without the XEN_EOI_FLAG_SPURIOUS is received from a backend driver, and incremented when this flag has been set. In case the counter is 2 or higher delay the EOI by 1 << (cnt - 2) jiffies, but not more than 1 second. In order not to waste memory shorten the per-event refcnt to two bytes (it should normally never exceed a value of 2). Add an overflow check to evtchn_get() to make sure the 2 bytes really won't overflow. This is part of XSA-332.

xen/events: defer eoi in case of excessive number of events

2020-11-05T10:51:08+00:00

commit e99502f76271d6bc4e374fe368c50c67a1fd3070 upstream. In case rogue guests are sending events at high frequency it might happen that xen_evtchn_do_upcall() won't stop processing events in dom0. As this is done in irq handling a crash might be the result. In order to avoid that, delay further inter-domain events after some time in xen_evtchn_do_upcall() by forcing eoi processing into a worker on the same cpu, thus inhibiting new events coming in. The time after which eoi processing is to be delayed is configurable via a new module parameter "event_loop_timeout" which specifies the maximum event loop time in jiffies (default: 2, the value was chosen after some tests showing that a value of 2 was the lowest with an only slight drop of dom0 network throughput while multiple guests performed an event storm). How long eoi processing will be delayed can be specified via another parameter "event_eoi_delay" (again in jiffies, default 10, again the value was chosen after testing with different delay values).

xen/events: use a common cpu hotplug hook for event channels

2020-11-05T10:51:08+00:00

commit 7beb290caa2adb0a399e735a1e175db9aae0523a upstream. Today only fifo event channels have a cpu hotplug callback. In order to prepare for more percpu (de)init work move that callback into events_base.c and add percpu_init() and percpu_deinit() hooks to struct evtchn_ops. This is part of XSA-332.

xen/pciback: use lateeoi irq binding

2020-11-05T10:51:08+00:00

commit c2711441bc961b37bba0615dd7135857d189035f upstream. In order to reduce the chance for the system becoming unresponsive due to event storms triggered by a misbehaving pcifront use the lateeoi irq binding for pciback and unmask the event channel only just before leaving the event handling function. Restructure the handling to support that scheme. Basically an event can come in for two reasons: either a normal request for a pciback action, which is handled in a worker, or in case the guest has finished an AER request which was requested by pciback. When an AER request is issued to the guest and a normal pciback action is currently active issue an EOI early in order to be able to receive another event when the AER request has been finished by the guest. Let the worker processing the normal requests run until no further request is pending, instead of starting a new worker ion that case. Issue the EOI only just before leaving the worker. This scheme allows to drop calling the generic function xen_pcibk_test_and_schedule_op() after processing of any request as the handling of both request types is now separated more cleanly.

xen/pvcallsback: use lateeoi irq binding

commit c8d647a326f06a39a8e5f0f1af946eacfa1835f8 upstream. In order to reduce the chance for the system becoming unresponsive due to event storms triggered by a misbehaving pvcallsfront use the lateeoi irq binding for pvcallsback and unmask the event channel only after handling all write requests, which are the ones coming in via an irq. This requires modifying the logic a little bit to not require an event for each write request, but to keep the ioworker running until no further data is found on the ring page to be processed.

xen/scsiback: use lateeoi irq binding

commit 86991b6e7ea6c613b7692f65106076943449b6b7 upstream. In order to reduce the chance for the system becoming unresponsive due to event storms triggered by a misbehaving scsifront use the lateeoi irq binding for scsiback and unmask the event channel only just before leaving the event handling function. In case of a ring protocol error don't issue an EOI in order to avoid the possibility to use that for producing an event storm. This at once will result in no further call of scsiback_irq_fn(), so the ring_error struct member can be dropped and scsiback_do_cmd_fn() can signal the protocol error via a negative return value.

xen/events: add a new "late EOI" evtchn framework

2020-11-05T10:51:07+00:00

commit 54c9de89895e0a36047fcc4ae754ea5b8655fb9d upstream. In order to avoid tight event channel related IRQ loops add a new framework of "late EOI" handling: the IRQ the event channel is bound to will be masked until the event has been handled and the related driver is capable to handle another event. The driver is responsible for unmasking the event channel via the new function xen_irq_lateeoi(). This is similar to binding an event channel to a threaded IRQ, but without having to structure the driver accordingly. In order to support a future special handling in case a rogue guest is sending lots of unsolicited events, add a flag to xen_irq_lateeoi() which can be set by the caller to indicate the event was a spurious one.

commit f01337197419b7e8a492e83089552b77d3b5fb90 upstream.
