Ok, now I have a question to this sentence.

I have checked some posts which says in the interrupt handling, irq would be
disabled. Well, this really depends on the implementation.

This means in Xen, irq is still enabled during interrupt handling? Because of
this, we have to disable IRQ when we need to grab the spin lock?

1:

Looks I almost get every thing. Let me do a summary to see whether I have got
your words.

   (spinlock usage convention in Xen)  &  (vcpu_wake() may happen in an IRQ)

=>

   (irq all disabled || irq all enabled) & (disable irq on grabbing spinlock)

=>

   should grab schedule lock with IRQ disabled

I think "foo" and "bar" need to be "big" and "LITTLE" at the xl level.

Given that Xen is the one with the information about which core is big
and which is LITTLE, I think the hypervisor should provide the mapping
between labels and cpu and cluster indexes.

I would be consistent and always use foobar=bigLITTLE at the xl level.

The info available is:
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/cpus.txt
plus:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel=147308556729426=2

We have cpu and cluster indexes. We have cpu compatible strings which
tell us whether a cpu is an "a53" or an "a15". We have
an optional property that tells us the cpu "capacity". Higher capacity
means "big", lower capacity means "LITTLE".

Xen could always deal with cpu and cluster indexes, but provide
convenient labels to libxl.

For example:

cpus {
#size-cells = <0>;
#address-cells = <1>;

cpu@0 {
device_type = "cpu";
compatible = "arm,cortex-a15";
reg = <0x0>;
capacity-dmips-mhz = <1024>;
};

cpu@1 {
device_type = "cpu";
compatible = "arm,cortex-a15";
reg = <0x1>;
capacity-dmips-mhz = <1024>;
};

cpu@100 {
device_type = "cpu";
compatible = "arm,cortex-a7";
reg = <0x100>;
capacity-dmips-mhz = <512>;
};

cpu@101 {
device_type = "cpu";
compatible = "arm,cortex-a7";
reg = <0x101>;
capacity-dmips-mhz = <512>;
};
};

The reg property encodes cpu number and cluster number and matches the
value in the MPIDR register. That is what Xen could take as parameter.

The mapping between reg and "big" or "LITTLE" and the cpu compatible
name, such as "a7", could be returned by an hypercall such as

Different frequency is fine, we have been able to set per core frequency
on x86 cpus for a long time now. If they are cores of the same
micro-architecture, it doesn't matter the cpu frequency, we can deal
with them as usual.

To me big.LITTLE means: it is technically possible, but very difficult
(currently unimplemented), and slower than than usual to move a vcpu
across big and LITTLE pcpus. That's why they need to be dealt with in a
different way.

If we had big.LITTLE cores in the same cluster, sharing L2 caches, with
the same cache line sizes, maybe we could also deal with them as usual
because it wouldn't be much of an issue to migrate a vcpu across big and
LITTLE cores. If/when we come across such an architecture we'll deal
with it.

Technically you might be right, but "big.LITTLE" is how the architecture
has been advertized to people, so unfortunately we are stuck with the
name. We have to deal with it in those terms at least at the xl level.
Of course in Xen we are free to do whatever we want.

Yes, more that the EOI-induced exit is conditional, specifically, the bitmap is 
set by vmx_set_eoi_exit_bitmap().

I think IRR is enough. But there is a challenge that the pt interrupt is 
__not_only__ handled by LAPIC ( see the bottom of pt_update_irq() )..

[Xen-devel] Question about next_module() function

[조현권]

Hi

I am experimenting Xen with my embedded system environment and got a
question in next_module() function.

*static paddr_t __init next_module(paddr_t s, paddr_t *end)*
*{*
*struct bootmodules *mi = *
*paddr_t lowest = ~(paddr_t)0;*
*int i;*

*for ( i = 0; i < mi->nr_mods; i++ )*
*{*
*paddr_t mod_s = mi->module[i].start;*
*paddr_t mod_e = mod_s + mi->module[i].size;*

*if ( !mi->module[i].size )*
*continue;*

*if ( mod_s < s )*
*continue;*
*if ( mod_s > lowest )*
*continue;*
*if ( mod_s > *end )*
*continue;*
*lowest = mod_s;*
**end = min(*end, mod_e);*
*}*
*return lowest;*
*}*

The job of next_module() function is excluding module exist RAM range
between s and *end and finding empty space which can be heap space.

But Its function does not work if module range is bigger than s and *end
range.
(Case when module range is mod_s <= s and mod_e >= *end)

*if ( mod_s < s )*
*continue;*

Above condition passes the case and xen consider range s and *end is free
space.

Is it expected result or mistake?

Thank you.

The new logic should be entered only when EOI-induced exit happens.

based on this patch, one irq_issued should cause only one EOI on
related pt vector and this EOI exit clears irq_issued then next EOI
would be seen only upon another injection when irq_issued is set
again... However there might be an issue if this pt vector is shared 
with another device interrupt, which although is not a typical case...

This is correct. The other one is for non-apicv scenario.

[Xen-devel] [PATCH v7 06/14] efi: build xen.gz with EFI code

[Daniel Kiper]

Build xen.gz with EFI code. We need this to support multiboot2
protocol on EFI platforms.

If we wish to load non-ELF file using multiboot (v1) or multiboot2 then
it must contain "linear" (or "flat") representation of code and data.
This is requirement of both boot protocols. Currently, PE file contains
many sections which are not "linear" (one after another without any holes)
or even do not have representation in a file (e.g. BSS). From EFI point
of view everything is OK and works. However, this file layout cannot be
properly interpreted by multiboot protocols family. In theory there is
a chance that we could build proper PE file (from multiboot protocols POV)
using current build system. However, it means that xen.efi further diverge
from Xen ELF file (in terms of contents and build method). On the other
hand ELF has all needed properties. So, it means that this is good starting
point for further development. Additionally, I think that this is also good
starting point for further xen.efi code and build optimizations. It looks
that there is a chance that finally we can generate xen.efi directly from
Xen ELF using just simple objcopy or other tool. This way we will have one
Xen binary which can be loaded by three boot protocols: EFI native loader,
multiboot (v1) and multiboot2.

[Xen-devel] [PATCH v7 12/14] x86: make Xen early boot code relocatable

[Daniel Kiper]

Every multiboot protocol (regardless of version) compatible image must
specify its load address (in ELF or multiboot header). Multiboot protocol
compatible loader have to load image at specified address. However, there
is no guarantee that the requested memory region (in case of Xen it starts
at 2 MiB and ends at ~5 MiB) where image should be loaded initially is a RAM
and it is free (legacy BIOS platforms are merciful for Xen but I found at
least one EFI platform on which Xen load address conflicts with EFI boot
services; it is Dell PowerEdge R820 with latest firmware). To cope with that
problem we must make Xen early boot code relocatable and help boot loader to
relocate image in proper way by suggesting, not requesting specific load
addresses as it is right now, allowed address ranges. This patch does former.
It does not add multiboot2 protocol interface which is done in "x86: add
multiboot2 protocol support for relocatable images" patch.

This patch changes following things:
  - %esi and %r15d registers are used as a storage for Xen image load base
address (%r15d shortly because %rsi is used for EFI SystemTable address
in 64-bit code); both registers are (%esi is mostly) unused in early
boot code and preserved during C functions calls (%esi in 32-bit code
and %r15d in 64-bit code),
  - %fs is used as base for Xen data relative addressing in 32-bit code
if it is possible; %esi is used for that thing during error printing
because it is not always possible to properly and efficiently
initialize %fs.

Current early command line parser implementation in assembler
is very difficult to change to relocatable stuff using segment
registers. This requires a lot of changes in very weird and
fragile code. So, reimplement this functionality in C. This
way code will be relocatable out of the box (without playing
with segment registers) and much easier to maintain.

Additionally, put all common cmdline.c and reloc.c definitions
into defs.h header. This way we do not duplicate needlessly
some stuff.

And finally remove unused xen/include/asm-x86/config.h
header from reloc.c dependencies.

[Xen-devel] [PATCH v7 00/14] x86: multiboot2 protocol support

[Daniel Kiper]

Hi,

I am sending seventh version of multiboot2 protocol support for
legacy BIOS and EFI platforms. This patch series release contains
fixes for all known issues.

The final goal is xen.efi binary file which could be loaded by EFI
loader, multiboot (v1) protocol (only on legacy BIOS platforms) and
multiboot2 protocol. This way we will have:
  - smaller Xen code base,
  - one code base for xen.gz and xen.efi,
  - one build method for xen.gz and xen.efi;
xen.efi will be extracted from xen(-syms)
file using objcopy or special custom tool,
  - xen.efi build will not so strongly depend
on a given GCC and binutils version.

Here is short list of changes since v6:
  - new patches: 01,
  - changed patches: 02-04, 07-10,
  - RFC patches: 07.

Patches 12-14 were reviewed by nobody last time.

Julien Grall raised some concerns in regards to EFI boot allocator
implementation on ARM. So, I marked patch #07 which introduces it
as RFC. Hence, I am asking ARM guys to review it and suggest needed
changes. If you have any questions please drop me a line.

I hope that (at least some) features provided by this patch series
will be included in Xen 4.8 release in one way or another.

If you are not interested in this patch series at all please
drop me a line and I will remove you from distribution list.

Daniel

[Xen-devel] [PATCH v7 14/14] x86: add multiboot2 protocol support for relocatable images

[Daniel Kiper]

Add multiboot2 protocol support for relocatable images. Only GRUB2 with
"multiboot2: Add support for relocatable images" patch understands
that feature. Older multiboot protocol (regardless of version)
compatible loaders ignore it and everything works as usual.

[Xen-devel] [PATCH RFC v7 07/14] efi: create new early memory allocator

[Daniel Kiper]

There is a problem with place_string() which is used as early memory
allocator. It gets memory chunks starting from start symbol and goes
down. Sadly this does not work when Xen is loaded using multiboot2
protocol because then the start lives on 1 MiB address and we should
not allocate a memory from below of it. So, I tried to use mem_lower
address calculated by GRUB2. However, this solution works only on some
machines. There are machines in the wild (e.g. Dell PowerEdge R820)
which uses first ~640 KiB for boot services code or data... :-(((
Hence, we need new memory allocator for Xen EFI boot code which is
quite simple and generic and could be used by place_string() and
efi_arch_allocate_mmap_buffer(). I think about following solutions:

1) We could use native EFI allocation functions (e.g. AllocatePool()
   or AllocatePages()) to get memory chunk. However, later (somewhere
   in __start_xen()) we must copy its contents to safe place or reserve
   it in e820 memory map and map it in Xen virtual address space. This
   means that the code referring to Xen command line, loaded modules and
   EFI memory map, mostly in __start_xen(), will be further complicated
   and diverge from legacy BIOS cases. Additionally, both former things
   have to be placed below 4 GiB because their addresses are stored in
   multiboot_info_t structure which has 32-bit relevant members.

2) We may allocate memory area statically somewhere in Xen code which
   could be used as memory pool for early dynamic allocations. Looks
   quite simple. Additionally, it would not depend on EFI at all and
   could be used on legacy BIOS platforms if we need it. However, we
   must carefully choose size of this pool. We do not want increase Xen
   binary size too much and waste too much memory but also we must fit
   at least memory map on x86 EFI platforms. As I saw on small machine,
   e.g. IBM System x3550 M2 with 8 GiB RAM, memory map may contain more
   than 200 entries. Every entry on x86-64 platform is 40 bytes in size.
   So, it means that we need more than 8 KiB for EFI memory map only.
   Additionally, if we use this memory pool for Xen and modules command
   line storage (it would be used when xen.efi is executed as EFI application)
   then we should add, I think, about 1 KiB. In this case, to be on safe
   side, we should assume at least 64 KiB pool for early memory allocations.
   Which is about 4 times of our earlier calculations. However, during
   discussion on Xen-devel Jan Beulich suggested that just in case we should
   use 1 MiB memory pool like it is in original place_string() implementation.
   So, let's use 1 MiB as it was proposed. If we think that we should not
   waste unallocated memory in the pool on running system then we can mark
   this region as __initdata and move all required data to dynamically
   allocated places somewhere in __start_xen().

2a) We could put memory pool into .bss.page_aligned section. Then allocate
memory chunks starting from the lowest address. After init phase we can
free unused portion of the memory pool as in case of .init.text or 
.init.data
sections. This way we do not need to allocate any space in image file and
freeing of unused area in the memory pool is very simple.

Now #2a solution is implemented because it is quite simple and requires
limited number of changes, especially in __start_xen().

New allocator is quite generic and can be used on ARM platforms too.
So, let's enable most of its machinery on them.

v2 - not fixed yet:

 this requires more work; I am not sure that it pays because
 potential patch requires more changes than addition of just

[Xen-devel] [PATCH v7 02/14] x86: properly calculate xen ELF end of image address

[Daniel Kiper]

Currently xen ELF end of image address is calculated using first line from
"nm -nr xen/xen-syms" output. However, sometimes it may contain random
symbol address not related to the end of image in any way. It can happen
if a symbol is introduced with address larger than __end_of_image__ symbol
address. Such situation encountered when I linked xen ELF binary with
xen/arch/x86/efi/relocs-dummy.S. Then first line from "nm -nr xen/xen-syms"
contained "82d0c000 A ALT_START" and xen ELF image memory size
was silently set to 1023 MiB. This issue happened because there is no
check which symbol address is used to calculate end of image address. So,
let's fix it and take ELF end of image address by reading __end_of_image__
symbol address from nm output. This way xen ELF image build process is
not prone to changes in order of nm output.

[Xen-devel] [PATCH v7 10/14] x86: change default load address from 1 MiB to 2 MiB

[Daniel Kiper]

Subsequent patches introducing relocatable early boot code play with
page tables using 2 MiB huge pages. If load address is not aligned at
2 MiB then code touching such page tables must have special cases for
start and end of Xen image memory region. So, let's make life easier
and move default load address from 1 MiB to 2 MiB. This way page table
code will be nice and easy. Hence, there is a chance that it will be
less error prone too... :-)))

[Xen-devel] [PATCH v7 01/14] x86: move xen ELF end of image to 16 MiB

[Daniel Kiper]

It seems that from xen ELF image POV _end symbol properly determine
image end. However, taking into account that initial Xen image mapping
covers 16 MiB it looks that it is not sufficient. Currently bootloader
potentially may load xen ELF image at 1 MiB and let's say put Linux
kernel or initrd at 8 MiB. Nothing forbids it. This means that initially
Xen image mapping may cover not only Xen image but also loaded modules.
So, let's move end of xen ELF image to 16 MiB. This way we avoid above
mentioned issue because bootloader will be forced to allocate 15 MiB
memory region for image. Then it (bootloader) would not be able to put
in this place anything else because from its POV simply this memory
region will be allocated and used.

This patch does not change xen ELF file size. It changes memory size
which should be allocated for the image during load.

[Xen-devel] [PATCH v7 04/14] efi: create efi_enabled()

[Daniel Kiper]

First of all we need to differentiate between legacy BIOS
and EFI platforms during runtime, not during build, because
one image will have legacy and EFI code and can be executed
on both platforms. Additionally, we need more fine grained
knowledge about EFI environment and check for EFI platform
and EFI loader separately to properly support multiboot2
protocol. In general Xen loaded by this protocol uses memory
mappings and loaded modules in similar way to Xen loaded by
multiboot (v1) protocol. Hence, create efi_enabled() which
checks available features in efi_flags. This patch defines
EFI_BOOT, EFI_LOADER and EFI_RS features. EFI_BOOT is equal
to old efi_enabled == 1. EFI_RS ease control on runtime
services usage. EFI_LOADER tells that Xen was loaded
directly from EFI as PE executable.

Actually they don't exist even now ;) But hopefully will, in the near

pthread_mutex_lock are nops :o) because we don't have pthread_create.
But for mini-os itself there are synchronization primitives, yes:
there are also semaphores (./include/semaphore.h) and waitqueues
(include/wait.h).

 Where do you see this being unconditional? construct_vmcs()
 clearly avoids setting these intercepts when using EPT. Are you
 perhaps suffering from

 /* Trap CR3 updates if CR3 memory events are enabled. */
 if ( v->domain->arch.monitor.write_ctrlreg_enabled &
  monitor_ctrlreg_bitmask(VM_EVENT_X86_CR3) )
 v->arch.hvm_vmx.exec_control |= CPU_BASED_CR3_LOAD_EXITING;

 in vmx_update_guest_cr()? That'll be rather something for you
 or Razvan to explain. Outside of nested VMX I don't see any
 other enabling of that intercept (didn't check AMD code on the
 assumption that you're working on Intel hardware).

So I experimented with selectively disabling the flushing such that
it's done only when coming from a path other then CPU-based CR3 load
exiting. I've added a bool to struct vcpu that gets set to 0 every
time vmx_vmexit_handler is called, and only gets set to 1 when
vmx_cr_access reports a MOV-TO-CR3. Then in the vmx_update_guest_cr
the flush only happens as such:

if ( !v->movtocr3 )
hvm_asid_flush_vcpu(v);

In the guest I run a test application that allocates a page at a fixed
VA, writes a magic value to it, and then keeps spinning on reading the
magic value back from the page, checking if it's the same as
originally supplied. I lunch this application twice with different
magic values, so that if the TLB invalidation is an issue one of the
test applications would read back the wrong magic value from the VA
using a stale TLB entry. I've verified that same VA in the two
applications point to different pages and that those PTEs are not
marked global and no PCID is used.

[  724] test (struct addr:88003730f330). PGD: 0x3731f000
VADDR 0x500 -> PADDR 0x73e35000. Global page: 0
[  727] test (struct addr:88003681ea20). PGD: 0x777a6000
VADDR 0x500 -> PADDR 0x75043000. Global page: 0

Both applications work as expected without the VPID flushing taking
place. So at least for CPU-based CR3 load exiting it seems that this
flush is not necessary. As for why this path gets called during domain
boot when the CPU supports Unrestricted Guest mode and it is properly
detecting when Xen boots, I'm not sure. However, as we use CPU-based
CR3 load exiting quite often when doing VMI, I would prefer to disable
this flushing at least for this case. Any thoughts?

[Xen-devel] [PATCH v6] acpi: Prevent GPL-only code from seeping into non-GPL binaries

[Boris Ostrovsky]

Some code (specifically, introduced by commit 801d469ad ("[HVM] ACPI
support patch 3 of 4: ACPI _PRT table.")) has only been licensed under
GPLv2. We want to prevent this code from showing up in non-GPL
binaries which might become possible after we make ACPI builder code
available to users other than hvmloader.

There are two pieces that we need to be careful about:
(1) A small chunk of code in dsdt.asl that implements _PIC method
(2) A chunk of ASL generator in mk_dsdt.c that describes with PCI
interrupt routing.

This code will now be generated by a GPL-only script which will be
invoked only when ACPI builder's Makefile is called with GPL variable
set.

We also strip license header from generated ASL files to prevent
inadverent use of those files with incorrect license.

Signed-off-by: Boris Ostrovsky 
---
Changes in v6:
* Replaced script's printf in most case with "here document" (for multi-line
  text) or echo for single line. Left printf for formatted output.
  (Note that in one case paramter expansion is necessary and so
   delimiter word is intentionally not quoted).
* Replaced bash arrays with ${string:index:size} syntax.
* Style adjustments as requested by Jan.

I am sending only this patch from series. A couple of patches are affected
by changes here. I will re-send the whole series if needed.

MdePkg/BaseMemoryLibOptDxe ARM AARCH64: fix thinko in SetMem##

The new InternalMemSetMem##() implementations for ARM and AARCH64 in
BaseMemoryLibOptDxe fail to take into account that the 'length' argument
is not in bytes, but in number of items to be copied. So multiply by the
item size before proceeding.

Yes, exactly.

Ok. So, two questions:
1. How to do this? ;) I.e. what synchronization primitives are available
in mini-os? Just pthread_mutex_lock/unlock?

2. Wouldn't the same problem be with other stubdomain implementations?
Like Linux + qemu-xen or rumprun + qemu-xen? At least in Linux case
pcifront driver will also needs some time for initialization...

[Xen-devel] [PATCH v3 0/4] Significant changes to Xen Project Governance (governance.html)

[Lars Kurth]

I made some significant proposed changes to governance.html based on a number 
of issues that were raised in a number of surveys last year, and via other 
means, as well as in the recent discussions related to governance.html changes 
(the issue of too many committers in XAPI and XAPI being able to hijack the 
entire project).

In any case, the changes are expressed in 4 patches governance.pandoc,
which is the pandoc source for governance.html:

- Code motion changes to make real patches easier to read
  No content has been changed
  An index was added
  Fixed some minor typos and formatting issues

- Added document containing governance related todo list
  These do not affect this series and are basically a TODO list for myself

- Significant changes to decision making; some new roles; minor changes
  Introduces governance changes
  Adds some new roles
  Minor formatting changes, such as missing anchors, wrong 
  Deletes addressed open issues in comments 
  Add additional comments to raise questions or provide background info

  Note that the proposal so far seems to have broad agreement
  
- Addressed comments on quorum and security team members
  In particular this addresses
  
  https://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2016-09/msg02160.html
  
  which exhibits a monotonicity failure due to the way how the quorum
  was expressed. An example of this failure can be found in 
  
  https://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2016-09/msg02168.html
  
  Expressing the quorum in terms of "1/3 of +1 votes" instead of a quorum of 
  "50% of +1 or -1 votes" avoids the monotonicity failure without affecting 
  the voting arithmetic otherwise. The reason for this is 2/6 of +1 votes and
  1/6 of -1 votes equate to 50%. I am sure, Ian Jackson can expand if people 
  care. 

The patch series is based on git://xenbits.xen.org/people/larsk/governance.git

You can see the changes in my personal git repo at 
http://xenbits.xen.org/gitweb/
?p=people/larsk/governance.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/2016-overhaul-v3b

Open Issues to be fixed (but these don't need to be reviewed)
- Fix up tables as these don't render properly as html
  Also see http://rapporter.github.io/pander/pandoc_table.html
  
---
Changes since v1
- Agreed and changed counting schemes for lazy consensus/votinh
- Added Community Decisions with Funding and Legal Implications
- Clarified AB role in last resort cases
- Removed comments where superceded by decisions we already made
- Adapted sections with dependencies

Changes since v2
- Fixed minor typographic issues
- Removed comments from the series, as these are distracting
  and make the document harder to review
- Broke out remaining comments that need addressing at some
  point into governance.todo
- Added an extra patch regarding quorum and security team
  members

[Xen-devel] [PATCH v4 0/7] xen/arm: Add support for mapping mmio-sram nodes into dom0

[Edgar E. Iglesias]

From: "Edgar E. Iglesias" 

This series adds support for mapping mmio-sram nodes into dom0
as normal uncached MEMORY with RW perms.

If the no-memory-wc prop is present in the DTB node, we create
DEVICE RW mappings instead.

Comments welcome!

Best regards,
Edgar

ChangeLog:

v3 -> v4:
* Rename p2m_mmio_direct_nc -> p2m_mmio_direct_dev
* Rename p2m_mem_nc p2m_mmio_direct_nc
* Make p2m_mmio_direct_nc non-executable to match p2m_mmio_direct_c
* Fix typos in comments regarding shareability
* Add reference to ARMv8 specs for outer sharability attr
* Add comment describing map_regions_p2mt
* Mention the p2m type inheritance in the commit msg of path #6

v2 -> v3:
* Drop RFC
* Add comment on outer-shareable choice for non-cached mem
* Spellfix existance -> existence
* Add comment on props usage
* Props matching now only supports a single property
* Dropped p2m_access in plumbing for mapping attributes
* Rename un/map_regions to un/map_regions_p2mt
* Add path to mmio-sram device-tree bindings docs in commit msg
* Add a comment on inheriting parent mem attributes
* Dropped the mmio-sram bus

v1 -> v2
* Replace the .map method with a list of match -> map attributes
* Handle no-memory-wc by mapping as DEVICE RW
* Generalize map_regions_rw_cache instead of adding new functions

[Edgar E. Iglesias]

From: "Edgar E. Iglesias" 

Rename p2m_mmio_direct_nc to p2m_mmio_direct_dev to better
express that we are mapping device memory. This will allow us
to use p2m_mmio_direct_nc for Normal Non-Cached mappings.

[Xen-devel] [PATCH v4 7/7] xen/arm: Map mmio-sram nodes as un-cached memory

[Edgar E. Iglesias]

From: "Edgar E. Iglesias" 

Map mmio-sram nodes as un-cached memory. If the node
has set the no-memory-wc property, we map it as device.

The DTS bindings for mmio-sram nodes can be found in the
Linux tree under Documentation/devicetree/bindings/sram/sram.txt.

[Xen-devel] [PATCH v4 6/7] xen/arm: domain_build: Plumb for different mapping attributes

[Edgar E. Iglesias]

From: "Edgar E. Iglesias" 

Add plumbing for passing around mapping attributes.
Nodes that don't specifically state their type will inherit
their type from their parent.

This is in preparation for allowing us to differentiate the attributes
for specific device nodes.

We still use the same DEVICE mappings for all nodes so this
patch has no functional change.

Yes, I meant that it's a little strange to have them differ, e.g:

p2m_mmio_direct_nc   xn = 0
p2m_mmio_direct_cxn = 1

Because intuitively, when looking at those types I would expect
them to be identical except for the cacheability...

Agreed. I personally don't see a reason why normal memory would cause problems
but it may be a little late in the release cycle to risk anything. I can
make the new p2m_mmio_direct_nc XN=1 and we can discuss a relaxation for the
next release?

What is this = 8 for?  I presume you didn't slip it in accidentally, but

So I can use the value directly from vex.opcx, without further

What faults are you referring to?  #UD vs #GP from hitting the %cs limit?

Or #PF.


This at once adds correct raising of #UD for the three "ud" flavors
(Intel names only "ud2", but AMD names all three of them in their
opcode maps), as that may make a difference to callers compared to
getting back X86EMUL_UNHANDLEABLE.

Definitely a good improvement.  I have been meaning to do this for a while.

Intel does references 0FB9 in a footnote in the opcode map, but I can't
see any mention of 0FFF at all.

Check AMD's.


Note on opcodes 0FA6 and 0FA7: These are VIA's PadLock instructions,
which have a ModRM like byte where only register forms are valid. I.e.
we could also use SrcImmByte there, but ModRM is more likely to be
correct for a hypothetical extension allowing non-register operations.

Won't the use of ModRM possibly cause us to read too much if it end up
with SIB and displacement encoding?  OTOH, do we really care?

That's why I've added that paragraph: I'd be fine either way, but I
do think the intention is a ModRM byte. Which is then also in line with
these opcodes' uses in early 386 and 486 processors (xbts/ibts/
cmpxchg).


Note on opcode 0FB8: I think we're safe to ignore JMPE (which doesn't
take a ModRM byte, but an immediate).

It took a while to find out what this instruction is.  Mind indicating
that it is Itanium-specific in the commit message?

Sure.


POPCNT, the aliased instruction takes a full ModRM byte with no space to
distinguish.

Well, distinguishing them is possible in principle, as by the time we
process bytes past the main opcode one we already know whether
an F3 prefix was present. I simply think it's not worth trying to do
so.


It would be helpful if you listed all of the decoding modified.

From the looks of things, the instructions changed are:

LAR, LSL, CLTS, UD2, FEMMS, 3DNow!, a bunch of SSE instructions, RDPMC, 
GETSEC, more SSE/MMX, RSM, POPCNT, UD1, yet more SSE,



A couple of other misc points:

What is the point of having 0F3A specified with 
DstReg|SrcImmByte|ModRM?  Being a prefix, it shouldn't be treated like a 
plain operation.


0F6F was previously ImplicitOps|ModRM, but looks like it should be ModRM 
like the rest of 0F6x.  0F7F, 0FC7 and 0FE7 similarly.

Ooh, you are thinking of just making sure that the displacement in virtual
addresses _should_ be OK.

And that BUILD_BUG_ON would certainly do it.

But my thinking was more of the payload either having some wacky relocations 
(say
having an initial addendum that along with the XEN_VIRT_START -> XEN_VIRT_END)
causes us to be way past the right place (especially with ARM32 where we only
have 32MB distance). And having this extra check makes me sleep better at night.

Adding the BUILD_BUG_ON as a futher check is fine, but as a different patch.

Subject: [PATCH v6] livepatch/arm/x86: Check payload for for unwelcomed
 symbols.

Certain platforms, such as ARM [32|64] add extra mapping symbols
such as $x (for ARM64 instructions), or more interesting to
this patch: $t (for Thumb instructions). These symbols are supposed
to help the final linker to make any adjustments (such as
add an veneer). But more importantly - we do not compile Xen
with any Thumb instructions (which are variable length) - and
if we find these mapping symbols we should disallow such payload.

Subject: [PATCH v6] livepatch: ARM 32|64: Ignore mapping symbols: $[d,a,x]

Those symbols are used to help final linkers to replace insn.
The ARM ELF specification mandates that they are present
to denote the start of certain CPU features. There are two
variants of it - short and long format.

Either way - we can ignore these symbols.

Right, with unrestricted guest support I would assume none of this
would get called - but it does, and quite frequently during domain
boot. The CPU is a Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2430.

Here is the updated patch:
From deef8f6921c15a4d07209bfba1fc8697dbfeb605 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 
Date: Mon, 19 Sep 2016 12:24:09 -0400
Subject: [PATCH v6] livepatch: Initial ARM64 support.

As compared to x86 the va of the hypervisor .text
is locked down - we cannot modify the running pagetables
to have the .ro flag unset. We borrow the same idea that
alternative patching has - which is to vmap the entire
.text region and use the alternative virtual address
for patching.

Since we are doing vmap we may fail, hence the
arch_livepatch_quiesce was changed (see "x86,arm:
Change arch_livepatch_quiesce() declaration") to return
an error value which will be bubbled in payload->rc and
provided to the user (along with messages in the ring buffer).

The livepatch virtual address space (where the new functions
are) needs to be close to the hypervisor virtual address
so that the trampoline can reach it. As such we re-use
the BOOT_RELOC_VIRT_START which is not used after bootup
(alternatively we can also use the space after the _end to
FIXMAP_ADDR(0), but that may be too small).

The ELF relocation engine at the start was coded from
the "ELF for the ARM 64-bit Architecture (AArch64)"
(http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.ihi0056b/IHI0056B_aaelf64.pdf)
but after a while of trying to write the correct bit shifting
and masking from scratch I ended up borrowing from Linux, the
'reloc_insn_imm' (Linux v4.7 arch/arm64/kernel/module.c function.
See 257cb251925f854da435cbf79b140984413871ac "arm64: Loadable modules")

And while at it - we also utilize code from Linux to construct
the right branch instruction (see "arm64/insn: introduce
aarch64_insn_gen_{nop|branch_imm}() helper functions").

In the livepatch payload loading code we tweak the #ifdef to
only exclude ARM_32. The exceptions are not part of ARM 32/64 hence
they are still behind the #ifdef.

We also expand the MAINTAINERS file to include the arm64 and arm32
platform specific livepatch file.

This late? According to the CR0 handling in
vmx_update_guest_cr() I would understand it to be enabled only
while the guest is still in real mode (and even then only on old
hardware, i.e. without the Unrestricted Guest functionality).

This also sits on the EOI LAPIC register write path, i.e. the change
then also affects non-apicv environments.

Furthermore - don't we have the same problem as with v1 again
then? What prevents multiple EOIs to come here before the timer
interrupt actually gets handled? You'd then clear ->irq_issued
each time, rendering your change to pt_update_irq() ineffective.

In any event please use hvm_intack_lapic() instead of open
coding it (and then I don't think you need a local variable at all).

I'll defer to the VMX maintainers to determine whether removing this

Looking at the rest of the code I really wonder why this check

this was intentional (as opposed to simply having been an

So there seems to be two separate paths that lead to the TLB flushing.
One is indeed the above case you cited when we enable CR3 monitoring
through the monitor interface. However, during domain boot I also see
this path being called that is not related to the
CPU_BASED_CR3_LOAD_EXITING:

(XEN) hap.c:739:d1v0 hap_update_paging_modes is calling hap_update_cr3
(XEN) hap.c:701:d1v0 HAP update cr3 called
(XEN) /src/xen/xen/include/asm/hvm/hvm.h:344:d1v0 HVM update guest cr3 called
(XEN) vmx.c:1549:d1v0 Update guest CR3 value=0x7a7c4000

This path seems to de-activate once the domain is fully booted. So at
this point I'm still not sure if the CPU-based load exiting needs the
flush or not, as I couldn't get the domain to boot when the flush was
simply removed, as this other path does seem to require it. I'll do an
experiment with the tlb flush only happening if the monitor interface
for this is not enabled and see what happens.

Except that

I don't really remember, actually. I do remember doing some passthrough

I don't know, perhaps it's different on windows. Or perhaps for windows
we just rely on the qemu pass-through.

Ah, since pcifront_watches runs in a separate thread, it may not have
called init_pcifront before qemu calls libpci, i.e. pcifront_scan.

I'd say that's where the fix should be: make pcifront_scan wait for
init_pcifront to be done.  It's however not so simple: we want to make
pcifront_scan do nothing if no pciback is to be launched. My memory is
rusty: is there something we are sure will show up in the xenstore when
a pciback is to be launched?  If so, pcifront_scan could do this: wait
for pcifront_watches to have checked for the potential presence of
pciback. If pciback is not to be started, just do nothing; if pciback is
to be started, wait for init_pcifront to have been called by
pcifront_watches. Then it will find the devices.

Are we going to strictly require that noone ever hand-crafts a

Absolutely - that's why its definition does not live in a header.


Ok.




I would suggest leaving the generate_exception_if(mode_64bit(), EXC_UD,
-1); after the ASSERT() so even if we do end up in a wonky state, we
don't try to jump the guest to 0.

That would look really strange to a reader, I think, and hence I'd
rather not do this if I can get the patch accepted without.


It is conceptually no different to

The latter would then lack any directory components, and hence

It's a redirection from a literal, introduced with <<.

http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/V3_chap02.html#tag_18_07_04

You probably want the version that looks like this  <<'END'
as it doesn't do interpolation on the literal text, rather than the
version without the single quotes (which _does_ do interpolation
of $ and `.)

Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH v5 06/16] livepatch: ARM/x86: Check displacement of old_addr and new_addr

[Ross Lagerwall]

On 09/21/2016 06:32 PM, Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk wrote:

If the distance is too big we are in trouble - as our relocation
distance can surely be clipped, or still have a valid width - but
cause an overflow of distance.

On various architectures the maximum displacement for a unconditional
branch/jump varies. ARM32 is +/- 32MB, ARM64 is +/- 128MB while x86
for 32-bit relocations is +/- 2G.

Note: On x86 we could use the 64-bit jmpq instruction which
would provide much bigger displacement to do a jump, but we would
still have issues with the new function not being able to reach
any of the old functions (as all the relocations would assume 32-bit
displacement). And "furthermore would require an register or
memory location to load/store the address to." (From Jan).

On ARM the conditional branch supports even a smaller displacement
but fortunately we are not using that.


Wouldn't this be simpler as a BUILD_BUG_ON() in arch_livepatch_init()?

Something like BUILD_BUG_ON(((XEN_VIRT_END - NR_CPUS * PAGE_SIZE) - 
XEN_VIRT_START) > ARCH_LIVEPATCH_RANGE)?


And BUILD_BUG_ON(((XEN_VIRT_END - NR_CPUS * PAGE_SIZE) - XEN_VIRT_START)

And something similar for ARM...

Could, or should? ;)

In the meantime, I've found this in xen-pcifront driver:

static int __init pcifront_init(void)
{
if (!xen_pv_domain() || xen_initial_domain())
return -ENODEV;

So, it looks like pcifront is not used in PV domain.

In the meantime I've tried to modify libxl to not setup pciback for
target domain. This, along with other modifications (see below) improved
the situation.

Thanks for the explanation!

I've tried only on Linux HVM guest and as noted above xen-pcifront
doesn't look to be involved. Is it any different on other OSes?

As for getting PCI passthrough working with stubdomain, for now I hit
those problems:
1. getdomaininfo not allowed from stubdomain (already fixed in master),
2. double setup of pciback (explained above) - for now I've disabled one
of them,
3. race condition between pcifront in mini-os and qemu.

Regarding the last one:
Toolstack during (stub)domain startup setup two things, mostly
asynchronously:
1. pciback/pcifront (through standard xenstore entries)
2. instruct qemu to attach device (by writing "pci-ins" to
device-model/xxx/command)

The later fails if pcifront is not initialized yet. For now I've moved
the second step to be really after the first one, including
synchronization through libxl__wait_for_backend call. 
Is it ok? Or maybe it should be done on stubdomain side (handling
"pci-ins" should wait on pcifront)? I guess the same will apply to
qemu-xen case, or any other stubdomain, so probably better have it in
toolstack, right?

Work-in-progress patches attached. The result is that lspci inside the
guest finally list the device. No idea if it's really working yet.

I don't think there is anything wrong with inconsistency.

But really, why not make this (or most of it) a here document (ie with
<<) ?  That would remove a lot of the quoting clutter (and would also
avoid any bugs where shell metacharacters or printf metacharacters are
unintentionally written unquoted).

Well, it did this:

  ++ ./make-flight osstest xen-unstable real
  No such class disk_mb_s at Osstest/TestSupport.pm line 1764, near "my

This is because of a missing dollar sign.  I will fix it up and retry.

Format string is the only reason. There are a couple of instances where

I heard that associative arrays sometimes have portability issues but

No reason, that's the style I usually use. I can change to $() if that's

The question of what section to put the data in is pretty orthogonal
to my request to make the allocator platform independent. In fact,
if desired we could have a per-arch override to specify the section

Note that this `cpupool-split' thing is meant to be an aid to the user
to quickly put the system in a state that we think it could be a common
or relevant setup.

For instance, cpupools can be used to partition big NUMA system, and we
thought users may be interested in having one pool per NUMA node, so an
helper for doing that quickly (i.e., with just one command) has been
provided.

That does not mean that it's the only use of cpupools, nor that it's
the only --or the only sane-- way to use cpupools on NUMA systems...
it's just a speculation, in an attempt to make life easier for users.

In a similar way, if we think that, for instance, creating a 'big pool'
and a 'LITTLE pool' would be something common, and/or we (Peng?
Stefano?) already have an usecase for this, we can well implement a
`cpupool-split' variant that does that.

*BUT* that does not mean that people must use it, or that they can't do
anything else or different with cpupools on ARM! In fact, on a NUMA
system, one can completely ignore `cpupool-numa-split', and create
whatever pools and assign pcpus to them at will. Or she can actually
use `cpupool-numa-split' as a basis, i.e., issue the command, manually
alter the resulting status, by doing some more movement of pcpus among
the pools the command created.

All this to say that, especially when thinking about this
cpupool-split thing, we "only" need to come up with something that we
think makes sense, either to be used as is or as a basis, not to the
one and only way cpupools and big.LITTLE --or ARM in general-- should
interact.

In fact:
> I think assigning cores from
> different clusters into one cpupool is not a good idea.
> 
I'd be perfectly fine with this, and with cpupool-split on big.LITTLE
to cut pools around clusters boundaries. But I definitely would not
want to forbid the user to manually shuffle things around, including
ending up in a situation where there are pcpus from different
class/cluster/whatever in the same pool... If that is shooting in his
own foot, then so be it!

Thanks and Regards,
Dario

This last line is absolutely true and very important!

That being said, I am a bit lost.

So, AFAICT, in order to act properly when the user asks for:

 vcpuclass = ["1,2:foo", "0,3:bar"]

we need to decide what "foo" and "bar" are at the xl and libxl level,
and whether they are the same all the way down to Xen (and if not,
what's the mapping).

We also said it would be nice to support:

 xl cpupool-split --feature=foobar

and hence we also need to decide what's foobar, whether it is in the
same namespace of foo and bar (i.e., it can be foobar==foo, or
foobar==bar, etc), or it is something else, or both.

Can someone list what are the various alternative approaches on the
table?

Regards,
Dario

Yes, that's expected, for the reason you say.


For each question, I'll answer for two cases: either plain PCI drivers
in the guest, or xen-pvPCI drivers.


* Using plain PCI drivers.
**
I.e. no PV from the point of view of the guest, it directly pokes I/O
ports emulated by qemu.

> 1a. How does it look in case of qemu in dom0 (no stubdomain)?

qemu uses libpci (from pciutils) to access the board and pass through
requests coming from the guest. no pciback should thus be set since qemu
pokes directly from dom0.

> 2. What operations are done through stubdomain and what are handled
> directly by Xen (itself, or with help of IOMMU)? I'd guess config space
> accesses are done through device model. Anything else?

When using a qemu stubdomain, qemu still uses libpci to access the
board. The stubdom/ directory contains a patch to make the stubdom
libpci use the minios PV frontend. Thus, the pciback should be set for
the stubdom, since that's the one which will poke it through PV.  I
don't remember how the guest iomemory access are handled. At worse
they're trapped into qemu that does the access from the stubdom. At best
qemu maps the pages into the guest memory, and thus the guest directly
accesses it through Xen (potentially made safe by IOMMU). I guess I
implemented the latter, but that's far away, so my memory might be wrong
:)

> 3. What changes (if any) are required in qemu-xen to have it working in
> stubdomain in regards to PCI passthrough? Should it just work (assuming
> Linux-based stubdomain with xen-pcifront driver)?

IIRC it should just work, just need to set a PV pcifront on the stubdom
when using a stubdom. In the dom0 case qemu will access the PCI board
directly.


* Using PV drivers from the guest.
**
So the PV is running its own PV drivers.
The stubdom thus doesn't have to know about it.

> 1a. How does it look in case of qemu in dom0 (no stubdomain)?

qemu will not manage it, the guest will talk directly with the pciback,
to be set on the guest.

> 2. What operations are done through stubdomain and what are handled
> directly by Xen (itself, or with help of IOMMU)? I'd guess config space
> accesses are done through device model. Anything else?

Everything goes through Xen, potentially with the use of IOMMU. config
space goes through PV too, values are read from the xenstore. See
minios' pcifront_physical_to_virtual for an instance how it's
implemented. The iomemory accesses are done by the guest PV driver by
just mapping the right physical pages.

> 3. What changes (if any) are required in qemu-xen to have it working in
> stubdomain in regards to PCI passthrough? Should it just work (assuming
> Linux-based stubdomain with xen-pcifront driver)?

qemu is not involved, so it doesn't have to be changed :)


* to summarize
**

If running PV drivers in the guest, you set the pciback on the guest, be
it run with stubdom or not. 
If running plain drivers in the guest,
  * when not using a stubdom you don't need to set a pciback.
  * when using a stubdom you need to set a pciback on the stubdom.

So the unfortunate thing is that when using stubdom, you'd have to set
the pciback either on the guest (to run a PV driver in it), or on the
stubdom (to run a plain driver in the guest, and let mini-os use PV to
let qemu pass the board through)
