2014-04-24KVM: MMU: flush tlb out of mmu lock when write-protect the sptesXiao Guangrong1-4/+21
Now we can flush all the TLBs out of the mmu lock without TLB corruption when write-proect the sptes, it is because: - we have marked large sptes readonly instead of dropping them that means we just change the spte from writable to readonly so that we only need to care the case of changing spte from present to present (changing the spte from present to nonpresent will flush all the TLBs immediately), in other words, the only case we need to care is mmu_spte_update() - in mmu_spte_update(), we haved checked SPTE_HOST_WRITEABLE | PTE_MMU_WRITEABLE instead of PT_WRITABLE_MASK, that means it does not depend on PT_WRITABLE_MASK anymore Acked-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>
2014-04-24KVM: MMU: flush tlb if the spte can be locklessly modifiedXiao Guangrong1-1/+2
Relax the tlb flush condition since we will write-protect the spte out of mmu lock. Note lockless write-protection only marks the writable spte to readonly and the spte can be writable only if both SPTE_HOST_WRITEABLE and SPTE_MMU_WRITEABLE are set (that are tested by spte_is_locklessly_modifiable) This patch is used to avoid this kind of race: VCPU 0 VCPU 1 lockless wirte protection: set spte.w = 0 lock mmu-lock write protection the spte to sync shadow page, see spte.w = 0, then without flush tlb unlock mmu-lock !!!

2014-04-24KVM: MMU: lazily drop large spteXiao Guangrong1-16/+18
Currently, kvm zaps the large spte if write-protected is needed, the later read can fault on that spte. Actually, we can make the large spte readonly instead of making them un-present, the page fault caused by read access can be avoided The idea is from Avi: | As I mentioned before, write-protecting a large spte is a good idea, | since it moves some work from protect-time to fault-time, so it reduces | jitter. This removes the need for the return value. This version has fixed the issue reported in 6b73a9606, the reason of that issue is that fast_page_fault() directly sets the readonly large spte to writable but only dirty the first page into the dirty-bitmap that means other pages are missed. Fixed it by only the normal sptes (on the PT_PAGE_TABLE_LEVEL level) can be fast fixed Reviewed-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>

2014-02-26KVM: MMU: drop read-only large sptes when creating lower level sptesMarcelo Tosatti1-0/+1
Read-only large sptes can be created due to read-only faults as follows: - QEMU pagetable entry that maps guest memory is read-only due to COW. - Guest read faults such memory, COW is not broken, because it is a read-only fault. - Enable dirty logging, large spte not nuked because it is read-only. - Write-fault on such memory causes guest to loop endlessly (which must go down to level 1 because dirty logging is enabled).

2013-08-07nEPT: Nested INVEPTNadav Har'El1-0/+2
If we let L1 use EPT, we should probably also support the INVEPT instruction. In our current nested EPT implementation, when L1 changes its EPT table for L2 (i.e., EPT12), L0 modifies the shadow EPT table (EPT02), and in the course of this modification already calls INVEPT. But if last level of shadow page is unsync not all L1's changes to EPT12 are intercepted, which means roots need to be synced when L1 calls INVEPT. Global INVEPT should not be different since roots are synced by kvm_mmu_load() each time EPTP02 changes.

2013-08-07nEPT: MMU context for nested EPTNadav Har'El1-0/+27
KVM's existing shadow MMU code already supports nested TDP. To use it, we need to set up a new "MMU context" for nested EPT, and create a few callbacks for it (nested_ept_*()). This context should also use the EPT versions of the page table access functions (defined in the previous patch). Then, we need to switch back and forth between this nested context and the regular MMU context when switching between L1 and L2 (when L1 runs this L2 with EPT).

2013-08-07nEPT: Add EPT tables support to paging_tmpl.hNadav Har'El1-0/+5
This is the first patch in a series which adds nested EPT support to KVM's nested VMX. Nested EPT means emulating EPT for an L1 guest so that L1 can use EPT when running a nested guest L2. When L1 uses EPT, it allows the L2 guest to set its own cr3 and take its own page faults without either of L0 or L1 getting involved. This often significanlty improves L2's performance over the previous two alternatives (shadow page tables over EPT, and shadow page tables over shadow page tables). This patch adds EPT support to paging_tmpl.h. paging_tmpl.h contains the code for reading and writing page tables. The code for 32-bit and 64-bit tables is very similar, but not identical, so paging_tmpl.h is #include'd twice in mmu.c, once with PTTTYPE=32 and once with PTTYPE=64, and this generates the two sets of similar functions. There are subtle but important differences between the format of EPT tables and that of ordinary x86 64-bit page tables, so for nested EPT we need a third set of functions to read the guest EPT table and to write the shadow EPT table. So this patch adds third PTTYPE, PTTYPE_EPT, which creates functions (prefixed with "EPT") which correctly read and write EPT tables.

2013-07-18KVM: MMU: avoid fast page fault fixing mmio page faultXiao Guangrong1-0/+7
Currently, fast page fault incorrectly tries to fix mmio page fault when the generation number is invalid (spte.gen != kvm.gen). It then returns to guest to retry the fault since it sees the last spte is nonpresent. This causes an infinite loop. Since fast page fault only works for direct mmu, the issue exists when 1) tdp is enabled. It is only triggered only on AMD host since on Intel host the mmio page fault is recognized as ept-misconfig whose handler call fault-page path with error_code = 0 2) guest paging is disabled. Under this case, the issue is hardly discovered since paging disable is short-lived and the sptes will be invalid after memslot changed for 150 times Fix it by filtering out MMIO page faults in page_fault_can_be_fast.

When guests do mmio access, KVM intercepts a MMIO #PF then it walks the shadow page table and get the mmio spte. If the generation-number on the spte does not equal the global generation-number, it will go to the normal #PF handler to update the mmio spte Since 19 bits are used to store generation-number on mmio spte, we zap all mmio sptes when the number is round Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

2013-06-05KVM: MMU: reclaim the zapped-obsolete page firstXiao Guangrong1-4/+17
As Marcelo pointed out that | "(retention of large number of pages while zapping) | can be fatal, it can lead to OOM and host crash" We introduce a list, kvm->arch.zapped_obsolete_pages, to link all the pages which are deleted from the mmu cache but not actually freed. When page reclaiming is needed, we always zap this kind of pages first.

2013-06-05KVM: MMU: collapse TLB flushes when zap all pagesXiao Guangrong1-3/+30
kvm_zap_obsolete_pages uses lock-break technique to zap pages, it will flush tlb every time when it does lock-break We can reload mmu on all vcpus after updating the generation number so that the obsolete pages are not used on any vcpus, after that we do not need to flush tlb when obsolete pages are zapped It will do kvm_mmu_prepare_zap_page many times and use one kvm_mmu_commit_zap_page to collapse tlb flush, the side-effects is that causes obsolete pages unlinked from active_list but leave on hash-list, so we add the comment around the hash list walker Note: kvm_mmu_commit_zap_page is still needed before free the pages since other vcpus may be doing locklessly shadow page walking Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com>
2013-06-05KVM: MMU: zap pages in batchXiao Guangrong1-24/+11
Zap at lease 10 pages before releasing mmu-lock to reduce the overload caused by requiring lock After the patch, kvm_zap_obsolete_pages can forward progress anyway, so update the comments [ It improves the case 0.6% ~ 1% that do kernel building meanwhile read PCI ROM. ] Note: i am not sure that "10" is the best speculative value, i just guessed that '10' can make vcpu do not spend long time on kvm_zap_obsolete_pages and do not cause mmu-lock too hungry.

2013-06-05KVM: MMU: fast invalidate all pagesXiao Guangrong1-0/+90
The current kvm_mmu_zap_all is really slow - it is holding mmu-lock to walk and zap all shadow pages one by one, also it need to zap all guest page's rmap and all shadow page's parent spte list. Particularly, things become worse if guest uses more memory or vcpus. It is not good for scalability In this patch, we introduce a faster way to invalidate all shadow pages. KVM maintains a global mmu invalid generation-number which is stored in kvm->arch.mmu_valid_gen and every shadow page stores the current global generation-number into sp->mmu_valid_gen when it is created When KVM need zap all shadow pages sptes, it just simply increase the global generation-number then reload root shadow pages on all vcpus. Vcpu will create a new shadow page table according to current kvm's generation-number. It ensures the old pages are not used any more. Then the obsolete pages (sp->mmu_valid_gen != kvm->arch.mmu_valid_gen) are zapped by using lock-break technique Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com>

2013-03-22KVM: MMU: Rename kvm_mmu_free_some_pages() to make_mmu_pages_available()Takuya Yoshikawa1-2/+7
The current name "kvm_mmu_free_some_pages" should be used for something that actually frees some shadow pages, as we expect from the name, but what the function is doing is to make some, KVM_MIN_FREE_MMU_PAGES, shadow pages available: it does nothing when there are enough. This patch changes the name to reflect this meaning better; while doing this renaming, the code in the wrapper function is inlined into the main body since the whole function will be inlined into the only caller now.
