Subject: [PATCH v3 0/9] KVM: Fix tick-based accounting for x86 guests
Date: Thu, 15 Apr 2021 15:20:57 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210415222106.1643837-1-seanjc@google.com> (raw)

This is a continuation of Wanpeng's series[1] to fix tick-based CPU time
accounting on x86, with my cleanups[2] bolted on top.  The core premise of
Wanpeng's patches are preserved, but they are heavily stripped down.
Specifically, only the "guest exit" paths are split, and no code is
consolidated.  The intent is to do as little as possible in the three
patches that need to be backported.  Keeping those changes as small as
possible also meant that my cleanups did not need to unwind much 
refactoring.

On x86, tested CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN =y and =n, and with
CONFIG_DEBUG_ENTRY=y && CONFIG_VALIDATE_STACKS=y.  Compile tested arm64,
MIPS, PPC, and s390, the latter with CONFIG_DEBUG_ENTRY=y for giggles.

One last note: I elected to use vtime_account_guest_exit() in the x86 code
instead of open coding these equivalents:

	if (vtime_accounting_enabled_this_cpu())
		vtime_guest_exit(current);
...
	if (!vtime_accounting_enabled_this_cpu())
		current->flags &= ~PF_VCPU;

With CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN=n, this is a complete non-issue, but
for the =y case it means context_tracking_enabled_this_cpu() is being
checked back-to-back.  The redundant checks bug me, but open coding the
gory details in x86 or providing funky variants in vtime.h felt worse.

Delta from Wanpeng's v2:

  - s/context_guest/context_tracking_guest, purely to match the existing
    functions.  I have no strong opinion either way.
  - Split only the "exit" functions.
  - Partially open code vcpu_account_guest_exit() and
    __vtime_account_guest_exit() in x86 to avoid churn when segueing into
    my cleanups (see above).
