Hi all,
this patch series implement guest SMP support for ARM, using the ARM
PSCI interface for secondary cpu bringup.

See each patch for a detailed changelog.


Stefano Stabellini (12):
      xen/arm: basic PSCI support, implement cpu_on and cpu_off
      xen/arm: allocate secondaries dom0 vcpus
      xen: move for_each_set_bit to xen/bitops.h
      xen/arm: support for guest SGI
      xen/arm: implement arch_vmap_virt_end
      xen/arm: compile and initialize vmap
      xen/arm: implement map_domain_page_global and unmap_domain_page_global
      xen: move VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info to common code
      xen/arm: support VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info.
      xen/arm: send IPIs to inject irqs into guest vcpus running on different pcpus
      xen/arm: run the vtimer Xen timers on the pcpu the vcpu is running on
      xen/arm: initialize virt_timer and phys_timer with the same values on all vcpus

[PATCH v4 01/12] xen/arm: basic PSCI support, implement cpu_on and cpu_off

[Stefano Stabellini]

Implement support for ARM Power State Coordination Interface, PSCI in
short.
Support HVC and SMC calls.

Changes in v3:
- move do_psci_* to psci.c;
- trap SMC;
- return PSCI error codes;
- remove Linux boot procotol from secondary cpus;
- implement cpu_off;
- use register_t as second parameter for arm_psci_fn_t;
- unconditionally reset the guest vcpu context on cpu_on.

Changes in v2:
- set is_initialised in arch_set_info_guest;
- zero vcpu_guest_context before using it.

[PATCH v4 04/12] xen/arm: support for guest SGI

[Stefano Stabellini]

Trap writes to GICD_SGIR, parse the requests, inject SGIs into the right
guest vcpu.

Signed-off-by: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@eu.citrix.com>

Changes in v4:
- move the code to a separate function;
- use gdprintk for debugging output;
- make use of PRIregister;
- replace the cpumask with a bitmask;
- move the virtual_irq check outside the loop;
- ignore non-existent target vcpus.

Changes in v3:
- make use of cpumask_from_bitmap.

[PATCH v4 05/12] xen/arm: implement arch_vmap_virt_end

[Stefano Stabellini]

Move virt_start out of ioremap and rename it to early_vmap_start.
Implement arch_vmap_virt_end by returning early_vmap_start.

Allocate virtual addresses in early_ioremap from top to bottom so that
later on when we initialize vmap, we can return the end of the vmap
address space (the last address allocated by early_ioremap).

Changes in v4:
- merge with "early_ioremap: allocate virtual addresses from top to
bottom" patch;
- better commit message;
- declare early_vmap_start __initdata;
- use "& ~SECOND_MASK" instead of shifts.

[PATCH v4 06/12] xen/arm: compile and initialize vmap

[Stefano Stabellini]

Rename EARLY_VMAP_VIRT_END and EARLY_VMAP_VIRT_START to
VMAP_VIRT_END and VMAP_VIRT_START.

Defining VMAP_VIRT_START triggers the compilation of common/vmap.c.

Define PAGE_HYPERVISOR and MAP_SMALL_PAGES (unused on ARM, because we
only support 4K pages so as a matter of fact it is always set).

Implement map_pages_to_xen and destroy_xen_mappings.

Call vm_init from start_xen.

Changes in v4:
- remove flush_tlb_local() from create_xen_entries;
- return error if a mapping is already present.

[PATCH v4 08/12] xen: move VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info to common code

[Stefano Stabellini]

Move the implementation of VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info from x86 specific
to commmon code.

Move vcpu_info_mfn from an arch specific vcpu sub-field to the common
vcpu struct.
Move the initialization of vcpu_info_mfn to common code.

Move unmap_vcpu_info and the call to unmap_vcpu_info at domain
destruction time to common code.

[PATCH v4 09/12] xen/arm: support VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info.

[Stefano Stabellini]

We don't want to support the full vcpu_op hypercall interface, just
VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info: introduce an internal ARM-only
do_arm_vcpu_op function to filter out the vcpu_op hypercalls that
we don't want to support.
Call do_arm_vcpu_op instead of do_vcpu_op from traps.c.

Signed-off-by: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@eu.citrix.com>
CC: keir@xen.org
CC: JBeulich@suse.com

Changes in v4:
- introduce an HYPERCALL_ARM macro and use it for do_arm_vcpu_op.

Changes in v3:
- do not export all the vcpu_op hypercalls to ARM guests, only
VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info.

[PATCH v4 10/12] xen/arm: send IPIs to inject irqs into guest vcpus running on different pcpus

[Stefano Stabellini]

If we need to inject an irq into a VCPU that is running on a different
processor, we shouldn't just enqueue the irq into the lr_pending and
inflight lists and wait for something to interrupt the guest execution.
Send an IPI to the target pcpu so that Xen can inject the new interrupt
returning to guest.

Signed-off-by: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@eu.citrix.com>
Acked-by: Ian Campbell <ian.campbell@citrix.com>

Changes in v4:
- check for is_running before vcpu_unblock;
- use smp_send_event_check_cpu instead of smp_send_event_check_mask.

[PATCH v4 11/12] xen/arm: run the vtimer Xen timers on the pcpu the vcpu is running on

[Stefano Stabellini]

The Xen physical timer emulator and virtual timer driver use two
internal Xen timers: initialize them on the pcpu the vcpu is running on,
rather than the processor that it's creating the vcpu.

On vcpu restore migrate the phys_timer and the virt_timer to the
pcpu the vcpu is running on.

Signed-off-by: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@eu.citrix.com>

Changes in v4:
- migrate Xen timers on virt_timer_restore.

[PATCH v4 12/12] xen/arm: initialize virt_timer and phys_timer with the same values on all vcpus

[Stefano Stabellini]

Introduce a domain wide vtimer initialization function to initialize
the phys_timer and the virt_timer offsets.

Use the domain phys_timer and virt_timer offsets throughout the vtimer
code instead of the per-vcpu offsets.

Remove the per-vcpu offsets from struct vtimer altogether.

Signed-off-by: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@eu.citrix.com>

Changes in v4:
- introduce vcpu_domain_init;
- inline phys_timer_base and virt_timer_base in arch_domain;
- use phys_timer_base.offset and virt_timer_base.offset directly in
vtimer code (remove offset field from struct vtimer).

It occurs to me that the only way this can happen is if we have decoded
the instruction incorrectly, because it's only 4 bits.

It can probably be an ASSERT/BUG_ON.

Is d->vcpu[vcpuid] == NULL sufficient here? A vcpu which exists but has
not been PSCI'd up will pass this -- what do we do to them? Hopefully we
don't wake them up? Do we not want to check something like _VPF_down
too?

The same likely goes for the TARGET_OTHERS code too which builds the
mask, I'm not sure how this isn't racy against a cpu going down though.

(personally I dislike assignments inside if()s, but they are not
uncommon in the hypervisor code)

Do you think the related one in create_p2m can go too?

You can use alloc_xenheap_page here.

Sometimes the cure is worse than the disease when it comes to 80
columns, and this would have been far from the longest line in this
patch ;-)

The cast + shift construct is available as pfn_to_paddr.

Those are just nits really, if want to fix the pfn_to_paddr +
alloc_xenheap_page things then:

No, because the flush in create_p2m is the only flush present in that
function, and because we change p2m mappings there, we need to make sure
that the guest doesn't keep accessing the old ones.

Isn't that flush in the wrong place then, because a guest VCPU running
on another PCPU could easily repopulate the TLB entry between that flush
and the time we actually update the PTE.

At the point of the current flush should be not remember that a flush is
required and do it at the end? Or clear+flush here and reinstate later.

BTW, this flushes all VMIDs, in principal we need to only flush the
guest's one, which requires this CPU to switch to that VMID, issue the
(TLBIALL) and switch back to the callers VMID. An optimisation to keep
in mind until later I think.

It appears to not be possible to flsh individual IPAs, so given a lack
of insight into the guest VA->IPA mapping we cannot optimise beyond a
full flush, shame!

Ian.

I'm slightly concerned that there might be other state which needs
clearing when we are brining up a VCPU which has subsequently been
running and blocked via cpu_down. I'm thinking of the sort of things
which vcpu_reset clears up.

However I guess we'll find those out later.

We will return here but not make it back to the guest, because we will
call into the scheduler (vcpu_sleep_nosync makes sure this is the case)
and block.

If cpu_up is subsequently called then it will overwrite the VCPU's guest
state and so it will return to the newly selected address.

Good!

Are there any interesting races here? Seems like there should be, unless
we hold the domain lock or something?

I know you are just moving this code but I don't understand how this can
make sense.

When initialising dom0 these are, AFAICT, uninitialised. When
initialising domU these are whatever the current domain (so, dom0)
happens to have here.

Also CNTVCT == Phys Count - Virt Offset, so adding Virt offset to it
seems like an odd way to do it?

Why this cval change? I don't see the opposite being taken into account
so I think this is an actual semantic change unrelated to the moving of
the offset fields?

Our handling of vcpu time is IMHO pretty, well, not well understood but
other than this little change the rest of the patch seems to otherwise
fall into the "can't make anything worse" category. (I don't know how to
classify this hunk, not necessarily saying it is bad).

Considering that max_vcpus is static, d->vcpu[vcpuid] has been
allocated at domain creation and that test_bit should be atomic, I don't
think there are any races here.
What am I missing?

I don't think so: init_xen_time() is called before building dom0, so NOW()
should be returning proper values here.

The offset is what we use to convert DomU time to Xen time and vice
versa.
Initializing phys_timer_base.offset to NOW() means that domU's physical
timer starts counting from NOW in terms of Xen time.

Initializing virt_timer_base.offset to CNTVCT_EL0 + CNTVOFF_EL2
accomplishes the same thing for vtimer:

offset = CNTVCT_EL0 + CNTVOFF_EL2
       = Phys Count - CNTVOFF_EL2 + CNTVOFF_EL2
       = Phys Count

I think the reason for it is that in the old document it wasn't
explicitly stated that Phys Count is actually identical to CNTPCT.

cval is the compare value, I don't think it matters what it is
initialized to. I couldn't think of a reason why it should be
initialized to NOW(), so I changed to 0.
I think it shouldn't make any differences, but you are right, this is a
semantic change, I will remove it from this patch.

Right, it should be only code movement plus same initialization on both
vcpus.

I don't think that race can cause any problems: if vcpu0 is sending a
TARGET_OTHERS SGI and vcpu1 is executing psci.cpu_off, depending on who
wins the race vcpu1 is going to receive the SGI on not, but the result
is going to be always consistent: if vcpu1 shuts down before the SGI is
sent, it is not going to receive it (actually it is going to receive it
if it gets ever woken up), otherwise it is going to receive it before
shutting down.

That makes me realize that we might not want to queue up interrupts when
a cpu is offline, what do you think?

I meant the reads of CNTVCT_EL0 and CNTVOFF_EL2, especially the second
one which is reset to an unknown value and we don't set it.

So we could just read CNTPCT but don't because the docs at the time
didn't suggest we could?

By setting offset == phys-count we are making it so that virtual time
for the domain appears to start from approx. 0, is that right? But then
it ticks along at the same rate as phys time with no accounting for
stolen or lost time etc? TBH I'm not even sure what stolen/lost time
would be like for a clock which is supposed to be consistent across all
VCPUs, or maybe that restriction is only for physical and hypervisor
timers.

As I say, our whole concept of virtual time is a little bit confused,
partly I think because we don't really know what the right answer is
supposed to be.

Your comment about the old docs made me go look at the new ARM --
there's a bunch of new register in there from the looks of things, 

Ian.

Did you test the case where the SGI gets delivered to a CPU which was up
but now is down? We don't want to crash because some resource has been
freed etc...

Probably we should either avoid that or explicitly clear the queue when
we bring a CPU up.

I haven't actually tested it, but no resources are freed:
vcpu_sleep_nosync only sets a scheduler flag.

I think that clearing the queue when we bring the cpu up is better, I'll

Good, so vcpus are only actually destroyed when we are destroying a
domain.

Do we need to be checking d->is_dying?

I don't think so: is_dying is used for toolstack driven domain kill
operations.

Right, no accounting. I don't know how the lost time accounting would
look like either.

I've added this to the ARM_TODO wiki.

I wonder if the right answer, by analogy with PV time on x86, will be
something like:

Reading the ARM Physical timer == Raw read of x86 TSC, i.e. you get a
raw host system time.

Reading the ARM virtual timer == The x86 PV clock protocol (e.g. the
tsc*factor+offset), i.e. you get a time source which does not include
stolen time and which ticks only when the guest is running (I think this
is the x86 semantics, not 100% sure though).

We also need to figure out whether we expect virtual time to remain in
step across the domain -- if yes (this is what the physical timers do
for example) then we need to understand what this means when VCPU0 runs
but VCPU1 doesn't. I don't know what x86 does here...

Ideally we would have a scheme which didn't require us to emulate either
virtual or physical time in the common case (e.g. migration among like
systems).

there is another problem there: the "factor" is not available or
configurable on ARM, so it can cause problems on VM migration.

I am thinking that we might have to enable the PV timer on ARM after
all.

Yes, that was what I was getting at with the common case for avoiding
being migration among like systems, IOW if you migrate to a system with
a different factor (which really == clock frequency, I think) then you
need to emulate :-(

It wouldn't be the *end* of the world and by making use of the
availability of both physical and virtual time we may be able to come up
with something even better? On x86 we share the pvclock algorithmn with
KVM -- this would be something interesting to discuss with them on ARM
too I think.

Or I suppose we have some PV mechanism to reset the kernels idea of the
clock frequency?

I think it is possible: if we exposed the "factor" to the guest and
accounted for the stolen ticks in the vtimer offset, the guest would
have everything it needs to calculate the time.

Agreed. Exposing the factor may need to only consist of the guest
rereading CNTFRQ after a resume.

We can probably take this particular patch based on this understanding
of where we are headed (it doesn't make things worse).

Shall we aim to have vtimer offset do the right thing in 4.3 though?

Ian.

It uses the VCPU_vcpuruntime to figure out whether it was "offline" and add
that to the 'stolen' or what not delta.

The arch/x86/xen/time.c has do_stolen_accounting which does some of this.
