Jeremy Fitzhardinge eefb47f6a1 xen: use spin_lock_nest_lock when pinning a pagetable
When pinning/unpinning a pagetable with split pte locks, we can end up
holding multiple pte locks at once (we need to hold the locks while
there's a pending batched hypercall affecting the pte page).  Because
all the pte locks are in the same lock class, lockdep thinks that
we're potentially taking a lock recursively.

This warning is spurious because we always take the pte locks while
holding mm->page_table_lock.  lockdep now has spin_lock_nest_lock to
express this kind of dominant lock use, so use it here so that lockdep
knows what's going on.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 994025caba xen: add debugfs support
Add support for exporting statistics on mmu updates, multicall
batching and pv spinlocks into debugfs. The base path is xen/ and
each subsystem adds its own directory: mmu, multicalls, spinlocks.

In each directory, writing 1 to "zero_stats" will cause the
corresponding stats to be zeroed the next time they're updated.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 59438c9fc4 x86: rename PTE_MASK to PTE_PFN_MASK
Rusty, in his peevish way, complained that macros defining constants
should have a name which somewhat accurately reflects the actual
purpose of the constant.

Aside from the fact that PTE_MASK gives no clue as to what's actually
being masked, and is misleadingly similar to the functionally entirely
different PMD_MASK, PUD_MASK and PGD_MASK, I don't really see what the
problem is.

But if this patch silences the incessent noise, then it will have
achieved its goal (TODO: write test-case).

Jeremy Fitzhardinge d6182fbf04 xen64: allocate and manage user pagetables
Because the x86_64 architecture does not enforce segment limits, Xen
cannot protect itself with them as it does in 32-bit mode.  Therefore,
to protect itself, it runs the guest kernel in ring 3.  Since it also
runs the guest userspace in ring3, the guest kernel must maintain a
second pagetable for its userspace, which does not map kernel space.
Naturally, the guest kernel pagetables map both kernel and userspace.

The userspace pagetable is attached to the corresponding kernel
pagetable via the pgd's page->private field.  It is allocated and
freed at the same time as the kernel pgd via the
paravirt_pgd_alloc/free hooks.

Fortunately, the user pagetable is almost entirely shared with the
kernel pagetable; the only difference is the pgd page itself.  set_pgd
will populate all entries in the kernel pagetable, and also set the
corresponding user pgd entry if the address is less than
STACK_TOP_MAX.

The user pagetable must be pinned and unpinned with the kernel one,
but because the pagetables are aliased, pgd_walk() only needs to be
called on the kernel pagetable.  The user pgd page is then
pinned/unpinned along with the kernel pgd page.

xen_write_cr3 must write both the kernel and user cr3s.

The init_mm.pgd pagetable never has a user pagetable allocated for it,
because it can never be used while running usermode.

One awkward area is that early in boot the page structures are not
available.  No user pagetable can exist at that point, but it
complicates the logic to avoid looking at the page structure.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 5deb30d194 xen: rework pgd_walk to deal with 32/64 bit
Rewrite pgd_walk to deal with 64-bit address spaces.  There are two
notible features of 64-bit workspaces:

 1. The physical address is only 48 bits wide, with the upper 16 bits
    being sign extension; kernel addresses are negative, and userspace is
    positive.

 2. The Xen hypervisor mapping is at the negative-most address, just above
    the sign-extension hole.

1. means that we can't easily use addresses when traversing the space,
since we must deal with sign extension.  This rewrite expresses
everything in terms of pgd/pud/pmd indices, which means we don't need
to worry about the exact configuration of the virtual memory space.
This approach works equally well in 32-bit.

To deal with 2, assume the hole is between the uppermost userspace
address and PAGE_OFFSET.  For 64-bit this skips the Xen mapping hole.
For 32-bit, the hole is zero-sized.

In all cases, the uppermost kernel address is FIXADDR_TOP.

A side-effect of this patch is that the upper boundary is actually
handled properly, exposing a long-standing bug in 32-bit, which failed
to pin kernel pmd page.  The kernel pmd is not shared, and so must be
explicitly pinned, even though the kernel ptes are shared and don't
need pinning.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 400d34944c xen: add mechanism to extend existing multicalls
Some Xen hypercalls accept an array of operations to work on.  In
general this is because its more efficient for the hypercall to the
work all at once rather than as separate hypercalls (even batched as a
multicall).

This patch adds a mechanism (xen_mc_extend_args()) to allocate more
argument space to the last-issued multicall, in order to extend its
argument list.

The user of this mechanism is xen/mmu.c, which uses it to extend the
args array of mmu_update.  This is particularly valuable when doing
the update for a large mprotect, which goes via
ptep_modify_prot_commit(), but it also manages to batch updates to
pgd/pmds as well.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge e57778a1e3 xen: implement ptep_modify_prot_start/commit
Xen has a pte update function which will update a pte while preserving
its accessed and dirty bits.  This means that ptep_modify_prot_start() can be
implemented as a simple read of the pte value.  The hardware may
update the pte in the meantime, but ptep_modify_prot_commit() updates it while
preserving any changes that may have happened in the meantime.

The updates in ptep_modify_prot_commit() are batched if we're currently in lazy
mmu mode.

The mmu_update hypercall can take a batch of updates to perform, but
this code doesn't make particular use of that feature, in favour of
using generic multicall batching to get them all into the hypervisor.

The net effect of this is that each mprotect pte update turns from two
expensive trap-and-emulate faults into they hypervisor into a single
hypercall whose cost is amortized in a batched multicall.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge e2426cf85f xen: avoid hypercalls when updating unpinned pud/pmd
When operating on an unpinned pagetable (ie, one under construction or
destruction), it isn't necessary to use a hypercall to update a
pud/pmd entry.  Jan Beulich observed that a similar optimisation
avoided many thousands of hypercalls while doing a kernel build.

One tricky part is that early in the kernel boot there's no page
structure, so we can't check to see if the page is pinned.  In that
case, we just always use the hypercall.

The thing is, the crash makes little sense at first sight. We crash on a
benign-looking printk. The code around it got changed in -tip but
checking those topic branches individually did not reproduce the bug.

Bisection led to this commit:

|   xen: add p2m mfn_list_list

Which is somewhat surprising, as on native hardware Xen client side
should have little to no side-effects.

After some head scratching, it turns out the following happened:
randconfig enabled the following Xen options:

  CONFIG_XEN=y
  CONFIG_XEN_MAX_DOMAIN_MEMORY=8
  # CONFIG_XEN_BLKDEV_FRONTEND is not set
  # CONFIG_XEN_NETDEV_FRONTEND is not set
  CONFIG_HVC_XEN=y
  # CONFIG_XEN_BALLOON is not set

which activated this piece of code in arch/x86/xen/mmu.c:

> @@ -69,6 +69,13 @@
>  	__attribute__((section(".data.page_aligned"))) =
>  		{ [ 0 ... TOP_ENTRIES - 1] = &p2m_missing[0] };
>

> +
> +static unsigned long p2m_top_mfn_list[TOP_ENTRIES / P2M_ENTRIES_PER_PAGE]
> +	__attribute__((section(".bss.page_aligned")));

The problem is, you must only put variables into .bss.page_aligned that
have a _size_ that is _exactly_ page aligned. In this case the size of
p2m_top_mfn_list is not page aligned:

 80b8d000 b p2m_top_mfn
 80b8f000 b p2m_top_mfn_list
 80b8f008 b softirq_stack
 80b97008 b hardirq_stack
 80b9f008 b bm_pte

So all subsequent variables get unaligned which, depending on luck,
breaks the kernel in various funny ways. In this case what killed the
kernel first was the misaligned bootmap pte page, resulting in that
creative crash above.

Anyway, this was a fun bug to track down :-)

I think the moral is that .bss.page_aligned is a dangerous construct in
its current form, and the symptoms of breakage are very non-trivial, so
i think we need build-time checks to make sure all symbols in
.bss.page_aligned are truly page aligned.

The Xen fix below gets the kernel booting again.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 0e91398f2a xen: implement save/restore
This patch implements Xen save/restore and migration.

Saving is triggered via xenbus, which is polled in
drivers/xen/manage.c.  When a suspend request comes in, the kernel
prepares itself for saving by:

1 - Freeze all processes.  This is primarily to prevent any
    partially-completed pagetable updates from confusing the suspend
    process.  If CONFIG_PREEMPT isn't defined, then this isn't necessary.

2 - Suspend xenbus and other devices

3 - Stop_machine, to make sure all the other vcpus are quiescent.  The
    Xen tools require the domain to run its save off vcpu0.

4 - Within the stop_machine state, it pins any unpinned pgds (under
    construction or destruction), performs canonicalizes various other
    pieces of state (mostly converting mfns to pfns), and finally

5 - Suspend the domain

Restore reverses the steps used to save the domain, ending when all
the frozen processes are thawed.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge d5edbc1f75 xen: add p2m mfn_list_list
When saving a domain, the Xen tools need to remap all our mfns to
portable pfns.  In order to remap our p2m table, it needs to know
where all its pages are, so maintain the references to the p2m table
for it to use.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge cf0923ea29 xen: efficiently support a holey p2m table
When using sparsemem and memory hotplug, the kernel's pseudo-physical
address space can be discontigious.  Previously this was dealt with by
having the upper parts of the radix tree stubbed off.  Unfortunately,
this is incompatible with save/restore, which requires a complete p2m
table.

The solution is to have a special distinguished all-invalid p2m leaf
page, which we can point all the hole areas at.  This allows the tools
to see a complete p2m table, but it only costs a page for all memory
holes.

It also simplifies the code since it removes a few special cases.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 8006ec3e91 xen: add configurable max domain size
Add a config option to set the max size of a Xen domain.  This is used
to scale the size of the physical-to-machine array; it ends up using
around 1 page/GByte, so there's no reason to be very restrictive.

For a 32-bit guest, the default value of 8GB is probably sufficient;
there's not much point in giving a 32-bit machine much more memory
than that.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge d451bb7aa8 xen: make phys_to_machine structure dynamic
We now support the use of memory hotplug, so the physical to machine
page mapping structure must be dynamic.  This is implemented as a
two-level radix tree structure, which allows us to efficiently
incrementally allocate memory for the p2m table as new pages are
added.

Non-PAE operation has been deprecated in Xen for a while, and is

For 32-bit, this means that pte_t becomes a union with "pte" and "{
