Ben Guthro 9aa356bc9f x86/S3: Fix cpu pool scheduling after suspend/resume
This review is another S3 scheduler problem with the system_state
variable introduced with the following changeset:
http://xenbits.xen.org/gitweb/?p=xen.git;a=commit;h=269f543ea750ed567d18f2e819e5d5ce58eda5c5

Specifically, the cpu_callback function that takes the CPU down during
suspend, and back up during resume. We were seeing situations where,
after S3, only CPU0 was in cpupool0. Guest performance suffered
greatly, since all vcpus were only on a single pcpu. Guests under high
CPU load showed the problem much more quickly than an idle guest.

Removing this if condition forces the CPUs to go through the expected
online/offline state, and be properly scheduled after S3.

This also includes a necessary partial change proposed earlier by
Tomasz Wroblewski here:
http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2013-01/msg02206.html

It should also resolve the issues discussed in this thread:

Daniel De Graaf abd10cf98f x86: remove IS_PRIV bypass on IRQ check
This prevents a process in dom0 from granting a domU access to an IRQ without
adding the IRQ to the domU's list of permitted IRQs. This operation currently
succeeds in dom0 but would fail if the device model were running in a stubdom,
so making the failure consistent should ease debugging of the device-model
stubdoms.

Daniel De Graaf 764012376a x86: remove IS_PRIV access check bypasses
Several domctl functions dealing with rangesets contain a short-circuit
bypass if the domain is privileged. Since the construction of domain 0
permits access to all I/O ranges, the call to irq_access_permitted will
normally return true even without the IS_PRIV check, and the presence of
the IS_PRIV check prevents the creation of a privileged domain without
access to specific devices or IO memory ranges.

Jan Beulich fdac951560 x86: clear EFLAGS.NT in SYSENTER entry path
... as it causes problems if we happen to exit back via IRET: In the
course of trying to handle the fault, the hypervisor creates a stack
frame by hand, and uses PUSHFQ to set the respective EFLAGS field, but
expects to be able to IRET through that stack frame to the second
portion of the fixup code (which causes a #GP due to the stored EFLAGS
having NT set).

And even if this worked (e.g if we cleared NT in that path), it would
then (through the fail safe callback) cause a #GP in the guest with the
SYSENTER handler's first instruction as the source, which in turn would
allow guest user mode code to crash the guest kernel.

Inject a #GP on the fake (NULL) address of the SYSENTER instruction
instead, just like in the case where the guest kernel didn't register
a corresponding entry point.

This is CVE-2013-1917 / XSA-44.

Daniel De Graaf ef496b81f0 libxl: postpone backend name resolution
This adds a backend_domname field in libxl devices that contain a
backend_domid field, allowing either a domid or a domain name to be
specified in the configuration structures.  The domain name is resolved
into a domain ID in the _setdefault function when adding the device.
This change allows the backend of the block devices to be specified
(which previously required passing the libxl_ctx down into the block
device parser), and will simplify specification of backend domains in
other users of libxl.

The check on run_hotplug_scripts in parse_config_data is removed because
it is a duplicate of the one in libxl__device_nic_setdefault, and is
removed here because it no longer has the resolved domain ID to check.

Node-affinity is now something that is under (some) control of the
user, so show it upon request as part of the output of `xl list'

Re the patch, the print_bitmap() related hunk is _mostly_ code motion,
although there is a very minor change in the code, basically to allow
using the function for printing both cpu and node bitmaps (as, in case
all bits are sets, it used to print "any cpu", which doesn't fit the
nodemap case).

Dario Faggioli d06b1bf169 libxl: automatic placement deals with node-affinity
Which basically means the following two things:
 1) during domain creation, it is the node-affinity of
    the domain --rather than the vcpu-affinities of its
    VCPUs-- that is affected by automatic placement;
 2) during automatic placement, when counting how many
    VCPUs are already "bound" to a placement candidate
    (as part of the process of choosing the best
    candidate), both vcpu-affinity and node-affinity
    are considered.

Dario Faggioli 05ad92287b libxl: optimize the calculation of how many VCPUs can run on a candidate
For choosing the best NUMA placement candidate, we need to figure out
how many VCPUs are runnable on each of them. That requires going through
all the VCPUs of all the domains and check their affinities.

With this change, instead of doing the above for each candidate, we
do it once for all, populating an array while counting. This way, when
we later are evaluating candidates, all we need is summing up the right
elements of the array itself.

This reduces the complexity of the overall algorithm, as it moves a
potentially expensive operation (for_each_vcpu_of_each_domain {})
outside from the core placement loop, so that it is performed only
once instead of (potentially) tens or hundreds of times. More
specifically, we go from a worst case computation time complaxity of:

 O(2^n_nodes) * O(n_domains*n_domain_vcpus)

To, with this change:

 O(n_domains*n_domains_vcpus) + O(2^n_nodes) = O(2^n_nodes)

(with n_nodes<=16, otherwise the algorithm suggests partitioning with
cpupools and does not even start.)

Dario Faggioli cfcc144ff1 xen: sched_credit: let the scheduler know about node-affinity
As vcpu-affinity tells where VCPUs must run, node-affinity tells
where they prefer to. While respecting vcpu-affinity remains mandatory,
node-affinity is not that strict, it only expresses a preference,
although honouring it will bring significant performance benefits
(especially as compared to not having any affinity at all).

This change modifies the VCPUs load balancing algorithm (for the
credit scheduler only), introducing a two steps logic. During the
first step, we use both the vcpu-affinity and the node-affinity
masks (by looking at their intersection). The aim is giving precedence
to the PCPUs where the domain prefers to run, as expressed by its
node-affinity (with the intersection with the vcpu-afinity being
necessary in order to avoid running a VCPU where it never should).
If that fails in finding a valid PCPU, the node-affinity is just
ignored and, in the second step, we fall back to using cpu-affinity
only.

Dario Faggioli ebb064aa22 xen: sched_credit: when picking, make sure we get an idle one, if any
The pcpu picking algorithm treats two threads of a SMT core the same.
More specifically, if one is idle and the other one is busy, they both
will be assigned a weight of 1. Therefore, when picking begins, if the
first target pcpu is the busy thread (and if there are no other idle
pcpu than its sibling), that will never change.

This change fixes this by ensuring that, before entering the core of
the picking algorithm, the target pcpu is an idle one (if there is an
idle pcpu at all, of course).

Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 63753b3e0d x86: allow VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info to work again on PVHVM guests
For details on the hypercall please see commit
c58ae69360 (VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info) and
the c/s 23143 (git commit 6b063a4a6f)
(x86: move pv-only members of struct vcpu to struct pv_vcpu)
that introduced the regression.

The current code allows the PVHVM guest to make this hypercall.
But for PVHVM guest it always returns -EINVAL (-22) for Xen 4.2
and above. Xen 4.1 and earlier worked.

The reason is that the check in map_vcpu_info would fail
at:

  if ( v->arch.vcpu_info_mfn != INVALID_MFN )

The reason is that the vcpu_info_mfn for PVHVM guests ends up by
defualt with the value of zero (introduced by c/s 23143).

The code in vcpu_initialise which initialized vcpu_info_mfn to a
valid value (INVALID_MFN), would never be called for PVHVM:

    if ( is_hvm_domain(d) )
    {
        rc = hvm_vcpu_initialise(v);
        goto done;
    }

    v->arch.pv_vcpu.vcpu_info_mfn = INVALID_MFN;

while previously it would be:

     v->arch.vcpu_info_mfn = INVALID_MFN;

[right at the start of the function in Xen 4.1]

This fixes the problem with Linux advertising this error:
register_vcpu_info failed: err=-22

Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 65a11256f2 xl: Fix 'free_memory' to include outstanding_claims value.
Updating to make it clear that free_memory reported by 'xl info'
is influenced by the outstanding claim value. That is the free
memory that will be available to the host once all outstanding
claims have been completed. This modifies the behavior that the
patch titled "xl: 'xl info' print outstanding claims if enabled
(claim_mode=1 in xl.conf)" had - which reported the
outstanding claims and nothing else.

The free_pages as reported by the hypervisor is the currently
available count of pages on the heap. The outstanding pages is
the total amount of pages reserved for guests (so not taken from
the heap yet). As guests are being populated the memory from the
heap shrinks and the outstanding count of pages decreases.
The total memory used for guests increases.

As the available count of pages on the heap and outstanding
claims are intertwined, report the amount of free memory available
to be a combination of that. That is free heap memory minus the
outstanding pages.

We also make some odd choices in reporting. By default we will
only display 'outstanding_claims' if the claim_mode is enabled
in the global configuration file. However, if there are outstanding
claims, we will ignore the claim_mode and report these values.

Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk eb42f98a20 xl: 'xl claims' print outstanding per domain claims
This is similar to "xl: 'xl info' print outstanding claims if enabled
(claim_mode=1 in xl.conf)" which exposes the global claim value.

This patch provides the value of the currently outstanding pages
claimed for each domains. This is per domain value which is added
to the global claim value which influences the hypervisors' MM system.

When a claim call is done, a reservation for a specific amount of pages
is set (and this patch lists said number) and also a global value is
incremented. This global value is then reduced as the domain's memory
is populated and eventually reaches zero.

The toolstack (libxc) also sets the domain's claim to zero when the population
of memory has completed as an extra step. Any call to destroy the domain
will also set the domain's claim to zero.

If the reservation cannot be meet the guest creation fails immediately
instead of taking seconds or minutes (depending on the size of the guest)
while the toolstack populates memory.

See patch: "xl: Implement XENMEM_claim_pages support via 'claim_mode'
global config" for details on how it is implemented.

The value fluctuates quite often so the value is stale once it is provided
to the user-space.  However it is useful for diagnostic purposes.

It is printed irregardless of global "claim_mode" option in xl.conf(5).
That is b/c the user might have enabled, launched a guest, and then
disabled the option - and we should still report the correct outstanding
claim value.  The 'man xl' shows the details of this argument.
The output is close to what 'xl list' looks like:

Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk d07824810d xl: export 'outstanding_pages' value from xcinfo
This patch provides the value of the currently outstanding pages
claimed for a specific domain. This is a value that influences
the global outstanding claims value (See patch: "xl: 'xl info'
print outstanding claims if enabled") returned via
xc_domain_get_outstanding_pages hypercall. This domain value
decrements as the memory is populated for the guest and
eventually reaches zero.

With this patch it is possible to utilize this field.

Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 8f28de1ec0 xl: 'xl info' print outstanding claims if enabled (claim_mode=1 in xl.conf)
This patch provides the value of the currently outstanding pages
claimed for all domains. This is a total global value that influences
the hypervisors' MM system.

When a claim call is done, a reservation for a specific amount of pages
is set and also a global value is incremented. This global value is then
reduced as the domain's memory is populated and eventually reaches zero.
The toolstack (libxc) also sets the domain's claim to zero when the population
of memory has completed as an extra step. Any call to destroy the domain
will also set the domain's claim to zero.

If the reservation cannot be meet the guest creation fails immediately
instead of taking seconds or minutes (depending on the size of the guest)
while the toolstack populates memory.

See patch: "xl: Implement XENMEM_claim_pages support via 'claim_mode'
global config" for details on how it is implemented.

The value fluctuates quite often so the value is stale once it is provided
to the user-space.  However it is useful for diagnostic purposes.

It is only printed when the global "claim_mode" option in xl.conf(5)
is set to enabled (1). The 'man xl' shows the details of this item.

[v2: Made libxl_get_claiminfo return just MemKB suggested by Ian Campbell]
[v3: Made libxl_get_claininfo return MemMB to conform to the other values printed]

Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk ad0fcc9fe5 xl: Implement XENMEM_claim_pages support via 'claim_mode' global config
The XENMEM_claim_pages hypercall operates per domain and it should be
used system wide. As such this patch introduces a global configuration
option 'claim_mode' that by default is disabled.

If this option is enabled then when a guest is created there will be an
guarantee that there is memory available for the guest. This is an
particularly acute problem on hosts with memory over-provisioned guests
that use tmem and have self-balloon enabled (which is the default option
for them). The self-balloon mechanism can deflate/inflate the balloon
quickly and the amount of free memory (which 'xl info' can show) is stale
the moment it is printed. When claim is enabled a reservation for the
amount of memory ('memory' in guest config) is set, which is then reduced
as the domain's memory is populated and eventually reaches zero.

If the reservation cannot be meet the guest creation fails immediately
instead of taking seconds/minutes (depending on the size of the guest)
while the guest is populated.

Note that to enable tmem type guests, one needs to provide 'tmem' on the
Xen hypervisor argument and as well on the Linux kernel command line.

There are two boolean options:

(0) No claim is made. Memory population during guest creation will be
attempted as normal and may fail due to memory exhaustion.

(1) Normal memory and freeable pool of ephemeral pages (tmem) is used when
calculating whether there is enough memory free to launch a guest.
This guarantees immediate feedback whether the guest can be launched due
to memory exhaustion (which can take a long time to find out if launching
massively huge guests) and in parallel.

[v1: Removed own claim_mode type, using just bool, improved docs, all per
Ian's suggestion]
[v2: Updated the comments]
[v3: Rebase on top 733b9c524d (xl: add vif.default.script)]
[v4: Fixed up comments]

Dan Magenheimer fc67e9dc0c xc: use XENMEM_claim_pages hypercall during guest creation.
We add an extra parameter to the structures passed to the
PV routine (arch_setup_meminit) and HVM routine (setup_guest)
that determines whether the claim hypercall is to be done.

The contents of the 'claim_enabled' is defined as an 'int'
in case the hypercall expands in the future with extra
flags (for example for per-NUMA allocation). For right now
the proper values are: 0 to disable it or 1 to enable
it.

If the hypervisor does not support this function, the
xc_domain_claim_pages and xc_domain_get_outstanding_pages
will silently return 0 (and set errno to zero).

Andrew Cooper 53fd1d8458 iommu/crash: Interrupt remapping is also disabled on crash
This fixes a regression side-effect caused by:
  IOMMU: properly check whether interrupt remapping is enabled
    git: fae0372140
     hg: 26742:e1ec14bad0cb

On the crash path in nmi_shootdown_cpus(), we shut down the IOMMU, then
disable the IOAPIC.

On systems which support interrupt remapping, the variable iommu_intremap
remains set, meaning that disable_IO_APIC() issues interrupt remapping
invalidate requests.

IOAPIC interrupt remapping used to be conditional on iommu_enabled, but is now
conditional on iommu_intremap, following the above changeset.

This behaviour can be fixed by also indicating that interrupt remapping is not
enabled after shutting down the IOMMU.

VPMU doesn't need to always be saved during context switch. If we are
comming back to the same processor and no other VPCU has run here we can
simply continue running. This is especailly useful on Intel processors
where Global Control MSR is stored in VMCS, thus not requiring us to stop
the counters during save operation. On AMD we need to explicitly stop the
counters but we don't need to save them.
