Avi Kivity 87bc3bf972 KVM: MMU: Drop cr4.pge from shadow page role
Since commit bf47a760f6, we no longer handle ptes with the global bit
set specially, so there is no reason to distinguish between shadow pages
created with cr4.gpe set and clear.

Such tracking is expensive when the guest toggles cr4.pge, so drop it.

Lai Jiangshan 90d83dc3d4 KVM: use the correct RCU API for PROVE_RCU=y
The RCU/SRCU API have already changed for proving RCU usage.

I got the following dmesg when PROVE_RCU=y because we used incorrect API.
This patch coverts rcu_deference() to srcu_dereference() or family API.

Gleb Natapov 5cd21917da KVM: x86 emulator: restart string instruction without going back to a guest.
Currently when string instruction is only partially complete we go back
to a guest mode, guest tries to reexecute instruction and exits again
and at this point emulation continues. Avoid all of this by restarting
instruction without going back to a guest mode, but return to a guest
mode each 1024 iterations to allow interrupt injection. Pending
exception causes immediate guest entry too.

Currently emulation is done outside of emulator so things like doing
ins/outs to/from mmio are broken it also makes it hard (if not impossible)
to implement single stepping in the future. The implementation in this
patch is not efficient since it exits to userspace for each IO while
previous implementation did 'ins' in batches. Further patch that

Gleb Natapov cf8f70bfe3 KVM: x86 emulator: fix in/out emulation.
in/out emulation is broken now. The breakage is different depending
on where IO device resides. If it is in userspace emulator reports
emulation failure since it incorrectly interprets kvm_emulate_pio()
return value. If IO device is in the kernel emulation of 'in' will do
nothing since kvm_emulate_pio() stores result directly into vcpu
registers, so emulator will overwrite result of emulation during
commit of shadowed register.

Avi Kivity 4a5f48f666 KVM: Don't follow an atomic operation by a non-atomic one
Currently emulated atomic operations are immediately followed by a non-atomic
operation, so that kvm_mmu_pte_write() can be invoked.  This updates the mmu
but undoes the whole point of doing things atomically.

the non-atomic write.

Avi Kivity daea3e73cb KVM: Make locked operations truly atomic
Once upon a time, locked operations were emulated while holding the mmu mutex.
Since mmu pages were write protected, it was safe to emulate the writes in
a non-atomic manner, since there could be no other writer, either in the
guest or in the kernel.

These days emulation takes place without holding the mmu spinlock, so the
write could be preempted by an unshadowing event, which exposes the page
to writes by the guest.  This may cause corruption of guest page tables.

Fix by using an atomic cmpxchg for these operations.

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.
