* [PATCH] KVM: MMU: Replace atomic allocations by preallocated objectsAvi Kivity2007-01-054-37/+153
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The mmu sometimes needs memory for reverse mapping and parent pte chains. however, we can't allocate from within the mmu because of the atomic context. So, move the allocations to a central place that can be executed before the main mmu machinery, where we can bail out on failure before any damage is done. (error handling is deffered for now, but the basic structure is there) Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com> Acked-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | In fork() (or when we protect a page that is no longer a page table), we can experience floods of writes to a page, which have to be emulated. This is expensive.

* [PATCH] KVM: MMU: Shadow page table cachingAvi Kivity2007-01-053-34/+280
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Define a hashtable for caching shadow page tables. Look up the cache on context switch (cr3 change) or during page faults. The key to the cache is a combination of - the guest page table frame number - the number of paging levels in the guest * we can cache real mode, 32-bit mode, pae, and long mode page tables simultaneously. this is useful for smp bootup. - the guest page table table * some kernels use a page as both a page table and a page directory. this allows multiple shadow pages to exist for that page, one per level - the "quadrant" * 32-bit mode page tables span 4MB, whereas a shadow page table spans 2MB. similarly, a 32-bit page directory spans 4GB, while a shadow page directory spans 1GB. the quadrant allows caching up to 4 shadow page tables for one guest page in one level. - a "metaphysical" bit * for real mode, and for pse pages, there is no guest page table, so set the bit to avoid write protecting the page.

* [PATCH] KVM: Prevent stale bits in cr0 and cr4Avi Kivity2007-01-054-2/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hardware virtualization implementations allow the guests to freely change some of the bits in cr0 and cr4, but trap when changing the other bits. This is useful to avoid excessive exits due to changing, for example, the ts flag. It also means the kvm's copy of cr0 and cr4 may be stale with respect to these bits. most of the time this doesn't matter as these bits are not very interesting. Other times, however (for example when returning cr0 to userspace), they are, so get the fresh contents of these bits from the guest by means of a new arch operation.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bugfixes: - Handle RTCs which are configured to use 12-hour mode. - Never report bogus/un-initialized times. - Displaying "raw trim" requires not masking it first! - Fix the sysfs and procfs display of crystal and trim data. Features: - Handle other RTCs in this family, notably rv5c386/rv5c387. - Declare the other registers. - Provide alarm get/set functionality. - Handle AIE and UIE; but no IRQ handling yet. Cleanup: - Shrink object by not including needless sysfs or procfs support - We don't need no steenkin' forward declarations. (Except one.) Until the I2C framework merges "new style" driver support, matching the driver model better, using rv5c chips or alarm IRQs requires a separate board-specific patch. (And an IRQ handler, handing off labor through a work_struct...) This uses the "method 3" register reads, but notes that it's done to work around an evident i2c adapter driver bug.

* [PATCH] fix memory corruption from misinterpreted bad_inode_ops return valuesEric Sandeen2007-01-051-41/+289
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | CVE-2006-5753 is for a case where an inode can be marked bad, switching the ops to bad_inode_ops, which are all connected as: static int return_EIO(void) { return -EIO; } #define EIO_ERROR ((void *) (return_EIO)) static struct inode_operations bad_inode_ops = { .create = bad_inode_create ...etc... The problem here is that the void cast causes return types to not be promoted, and for ops such as listxattr which expect more than 32 bits of return value, the 32-bit -EIO is interpreted as a large positive 64-bit number, i.e. 0x00000000fffffffa instead of 0xfffffffa. This goes particularly badly when the return value is taken as a number of bytes to copy into, say, a user's buffer for example... I originally had coded up the fix by creating a return_EIO_<TYPE> macro for each return type, like this: static int return_EIO_int(void) { return -EIO; } #define EIO_ERROR_INT ((void *) (return_EIO_int)) static struct inode_operations bad_inode_ops = { .create = EIO_ERROR_INT, ...etc... but Al felt that it was probably better to create an EIO-returner for each actual op signature. Since so few ops share a signature, I just went ahead & created an EIO function for each individual file & inode op that returns a value.

* [PATCH] Sanely size hash tables when using large base pagesPaul Mundt2007-01-051-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | At the moment the inode/dentry cache hash tables (common by way of alloc_large_system_hash()) are incorrectly sized by their respective detection logic when we attempt to use large base pages on systems with little memory. This results in odd behaviour when using a 64kB PAGE_SIZE, such as: Dentry cache hash table entries: 8192 (order: -1, 32768 bytes) Inode-cache hash table entries: 4096 (order: -2, 16384 bytes) The mount cache hash table is seemingly the only one that gets this right by directly taking PAGE_SIZE in to account.

* [PATCH] atiixp: Old drivers/ide layer driver for the ATIIXP hang fixAlan2007-01-051-8/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the old IDE layer calls into methods in the driver during error handling it is essentially random whether ide_lock is already held. This causes a deadlock in the atiixp driver which also uses ide_lock internally for locking. Switch to a private lock instead.

* [PATCH] Fix BUG at drivers/scsi/scsi_lib.c:1118 caused by "pktsetup dvd ↵Christoph Hellwig2007-01-051-31/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | /dev/sr0" Fix http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7667 This is because the packet driver tries to send down read/write BLOCK_PC commands that don't use a bio and do not use sg lists. The right fix is to replace all the packet_command stuff in the packet driver by scsi_execute() which needs to be lifted from scsi code to the block code for that. Fix the bug for now. It's not the full way to a generic execute block pc infrastcuture but fixes the bug for the time being.

* [PATCH] KVM: Improve interrupt responseDor Laor2007-01-055-28/+180
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current interrupt injection mechanism might delay an interrupt under the following circumstances: - if injection fails because the guest is not interruptible (rflags.IF clear, or after a 'mov ss' or 'sti' instruction). Userspace can check rflags, but the other cases or not testable under the current API. - if injection fails because of a fault during delivery. This probably never happens under normal guests. - if injection fails due to a physical interrupt causing a vmexit so that it can be handled by the host. In all cases the guest proceeds without processing the interrupt, reducing the interactive feel and interrupt throughput of the guest. This patch fixes the situation by allowing userspace to request an exit when the 'interrupt window' opens, so that it can re-inject the interrupt at the right time. Guest interactivity is very visibly improved.

| | | | | | | | | | | | If we load the wrong arch module, it leaves behind kvm_arch_ops set, which prevents loading of the correct arch module later.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | KVM does kmalloc() in an atomic section while having preemption disabled via vcpu_load(). Fix this by moving the ->*_msr setup from the vcpu_setup method to the vcpu_create method. (This is also a small speedup for setting up a vcpu, which can in theory be more frequent than the vcpu_create method).

* [PATCH] via82cxxx: fix cable detectionBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz2007-01-051-73/+65
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes 2.6.15 regression, is straightforward and tested. Cable detection got broken probably while converting the driver to support multiple controllers. Cable detection is done by examining how BIOS configured the attached devices. The current code is broken in that it examines the status *after* modifying Clk66 configuration ending up detecting 40c cables as 80c. This patch fixes it.
