17 years agoKVM: Per-vcpu inodes
Avi Kivity [Wed, 21 Feb 2007 16:04:26 +0000 (18:04 +0200)]
KVM: Per-vcpu inodes

Allocate a distinct inode for every vcpu in a VM.  This has the following
benefits:

 - the filp cachelines are no longer bounced when f_count is incremented on
   every ioctl()
 - the API and internal code are distinctly clearer; for example, on the
   KVM_GET_REGS ioctl, there is no need to copy the vcpu number from
   userspace and then copy the registers back; the vcpu identity is derived
   from the fd used to make the call

Right now the performance benefits are completely theoretical since (a) we
don't support more than one vcpu per VM and (b) virtualization hardware
inefficiencies completely everwhelm any cacheline bouncing effects.  But
both of these will change, and we need to prepare the API today.

No other driver does this, and it confuses the X server into thinking
that the device does not support blanking properly.

I looked again and there is simply no reason for the Radeon driver to
return -EINVAL for FB_BLANK_NORMAL.  It claims it wants to do this in
order to convince fbcon to blank in software, right here:

if (fb_blank(info, blank))
fbcon_generic_blank(vc, info, blank);

to software blank the screen.  But it only causes that to happen
in the FB_BLANK_NORMAL case.

That makes no sense because the Radeon code does this:

val |= CRTC_DISPLAY_DIS;

in the FB_BLANK_NORMAL case so should be blanking the hardware, and

Aristeu Sergio Rozanski Filho [Thu, 1 Mar 2007 04:13:53 +0000 (20:13 -0800)]
[PATCH] tty_io: fix race in master pty close/slave pty close path

This patch fixes a possible race that leads to double freeing an idr index.
 When the master begin to close, release_dev() is called and then
pty_close() is called:

        if (tty->driver->close)
                tty->driver->close(tty, filp);

This is done without helding any locks other than BKL.  Inside pty_close(),
being a master close, the devpts entry will be removed:

#ifdef CONFIG_UNIX98_PTYS
                if (tty->driver == ptm_driver)
                        devpts_pty_kill(tty->index);
#endif

But devpts_pty_kill() will call get_node() that may sleep while waiting for
&devpts_root->d_inode->i_sem.  When this happens and the slave is being
opened, tty_open() just found the driver and index:

        driver = get_tty_driver(device, &index);
        if (!driver) {
                mutex_unlock(&tty_mutex);
                return -ENODEV;
        }

This part of the code is already protected under tty_mute.  The problem is
that the slave close already got an index.  Then init_dev() is called and
blocks waiting for the same &devpts_root->d_inode->i_sem.

When the master close resumes, it removes the devpts entry, and the
relation between idr index and the tty is gone.  The master then sleeps
waiting for the tty_mutex on release_dev().

Slave open resumes and found no tty for that index.  As result, a NULL tty
is returned and init_dev() doesn't flow to fast_track:

        /* check whether we're reopening an existing tty */
        if (driver->flags & TTY_DRIVER_DEVPTS_MEM) {
                tty = devpts_get_tty(idx);
                if (tty && driver->subtype == PTY_TYPE_MASTER)
                        tty = tty->link;
        } else {
                tty = driver->ttys[idx];
        }
        if (tty) goto fast_track;

The result of this, is that a new tty will be created and init_dev() returns
sucessfull. After returning, tty_mutex is dropped and master close may resume.

Master close finds it's the only use and both sides are closing, then releases
the tty and the index. At this point, the idr index is free, but slave still
has it.

Slave open then calls pty_open() and finds that tty->link->count is 0,
because there's no master and returns error.  Then tty_open() calls
release_dev() which executes without any warning, as it was a case of last
slave close when the master is already closed (master->count == 0,
slave->count == 1).  The tty is then released with the already released idr
index.

This normally would only issue a warning on idr_remove() but in case of a
customer's critical application, it's never too simple:

thread1: opens master, gets index X
thread1: begin closing master
thread2: begin opening slave with index X
thread1: finishes closing master, index X released
thread3: opens master, gets index X, just released
thread2: fails opening slave, releases index X         <----
thread4: opens master, gets index X, init_dev() then find an already in use
 and healthy tty and fails

If no more indexes are released, ptmx_open() will keep failing, as the
first free index available is X, and it will make init_dev() fail because
you're trying to "reopen a master" which isn't valid.

The patch notices when this race happens and make init_dev() fail
imediately.  The init_dev() function is called with tty_mutex held, so it's
safe to continue with tty till the end of function because release_dev()
won't make any further changes without grabbing the tty_mutex.

Without the patch, on some machines it's possible get easily idr warnings
like this one:

window another inode might find this xattr block from the mbcache and reuse
it, racing a refcount updates.  The xattr block will later be freed by the
first inode without notice other inode is still use it.  Later if that
block is reallocated as a datablock for other file, then more serious
problem might happen.

We need put a lock around places checking the refount as well to avoid
racing issue.  Another place need this kind of protection is in
ext3_xattr_block_set(), where it will modify the xattr block content in-
the-fly if the refcount is 1 (means it's the only inode reference it).

This will also fix another issue: the xattr block may not get freed at all
if no lock is to protect the refcount check at the release time.  It is
possible that the last two inodes could release the shared xattr block at
the same time.  But both of them think they are not the last one so only
decreased the h_refcount without freeing xattr block at all.

We need to call lock_buffer() after ext3_journal_get_write_access() to
avoid deadlock (because the later will call lock_buffer()/unlock_buffer
() as well).

[PATCH] uml: host VDSO fix

This fixes a problem seen by a number of people running UML on newer host
kernels.  init would hang with an infinite segfault loop.

It turns out that the host kernel was providing a AT_SYSINFO_EHDR of
0xffffe000, which faked UML into believing that the host VDSO page could be
reused.  However, AT_SYSINFO pointed into the middle of the address space, and
was unmapped as a result.  Because UML was providing AT_SYSINFO_EHDR and
AT_SYSINFO to its own processes, these would branch to nowhere when trying to
use the VDSO.

The fix is to also check the location of AT_SYSINFO when deciding whether to
use the host's VDSO.

The mddev and queue might be used for another array which does not set these,
so they need to be cleared.

[PATCH] md: move warning about creating a raid array on partitions of the one device

md tries to warn the user if they e.g.  create a raid1 using two partitions of
the same device, as this does not provide true redundancy.

However it also warns if a raid0 is created like this, and there is nothing
wrong with that.

At the place where the warning is currently printer, we don't necessarily know
what level the array will be, so move the warning from the point where the
device is added to the point where the array is started.

[PATCH] md: fix raid10 recovery problem.

There are two errors that can lead to recovery problems with raid10
when used in 'far' more (not the default).

Due to a '>' instead of '>=' the wrong block is located which would result in
garbage being written to some random location, quite possible outside the
range of the device, causing the newly reconstructed device to fail.

The device size calculation had some rounding errors (it didn't round when it
should) and so recovery would go a few blocks too far which would again cause
a write to a random block address and probably a device error.

The code for working with device sizes was fairly confused and spread out, so
this has been tided up a bit.
