vhost: fix initialization for vq->is_le

2017-02-03T21:38:57+00:00

Currently, under certain circumstances vhost_init_is_le does just a part
of the initialization job, and depends on vhost_reset_is_le being called
too. For this reason vhost_vq_init_access used to call vhost_reset_is_le
when vq->private_data is NULL. This is not only counter intuitive, but
also real a problem because it breaks vhost_net. The bug was introduced to
vhost_net with commit 2751c9882b94 ("vhost: cross-endian support for
legacy devices"). The symptom is corruption of the vq's used.idx field
(virtio) after VHOST_NET_SET_BACKEND was issued as a part of the vhost
shutdown on a vq with pending descriptors.

Let us make sure the outcome of vhost_init_is_le never depend on the state
it is actually supposed to initialize, and fix virtio_net by removing the
reset from vhost_vq_init_access.

With the above, there is no reason for vhost_reset_is_le to do just half
of the job. Let us make vhost_reset_is_le reinitialize is_le.

Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

2016-12-16T18:24:44+00:00

Pull vfs updates from Al Viro:

 - more ->d_init() stuff (work.dcache)

 - pathname resolution cleanups (work.namei)

 - a few missing iov_iter primitives - copy_from_iter_full() and
   friends. Either copy the full requested amount, advance the iterator
   and return true, or fail, return false and do _not_ advance the
   iterator. Quite a few open-coded callers converted (and became more
   readable and harder to fuck up that way) (work.iov_iter)

 - several assorted patches, the big one being logfs removal

vhost: cache used event for better performance

2016-12-15T22:12:50+00:00

When event index was enabled, we need to fetch used event from
userspace memory each time. This userspace fetch (with memory
barrier) could be saved sometime when 1) caching used event and 2)
if used event is ahead of new and old to new updating does not cross
it, we're sure there's no need to notify guest.

This will be useful for heavy tx load e.g guest pktgen test with Linux
driver shows ~3.5% improvement.

vhost: add missing __user annotations

2016-12-15T04:59:18+00:00

Several vhost functions were missing __user annotations
on pointers, causing sparse warnings. Fix this up.

sparse also warns about vhost_process_iotlb_msg which
is local and should be static. Fix that up as well.

vhost: make interval tree static inline

2016-12-15T04:59:17+00:00

vhost_umem_interval_tree is only used locally within vhost.c, mark it
static. As some functions generated go unused, this triggers warnings
unless we also mark it inline.

[iov_iter] new primitives - copy_from_iter_full() and friends

2016-12-05T19:33:36+00:00

copy_from_iter_full(), copy_from_iter_full_nocache() and
csum_and_copy_from_iter_full() - counterparts of copy_from_iter()
et.al., advancing iterator only in case of successful full copy
and returning whether it had been successful or not.

Convert some obvious users.  *NOTE* - do not blindly assume that
something is a good candidate for those unless you are sure that
not advancing iov_iter in failure case is the right thing in
this case.  Anything that does short read/short write kind of
stuff (or is in a loop, etc.) is unlikely to be a good one.

vhost: new device IOTLB API

2016-08-02T13:53:54+00:00

This patch tries to implement an device IOTLB for vhost. This could be
used with userspace(qemu) implementation of DMA remapping
to emulate an IOMMU for the guest.

The idea is simple, cache the translation in a software device IOTLB
(which is implemented as an interval tree) in vhost and use vhost_net
file descriptor for reporting IOTLB miss and IOTLB
update/invalidation. When vhost meets an IOTLB miss, the fault
address, size and access can be read from the file. After userspace
finishes the translation, it writes the translated address to the
vhost_net file to update the device IOTLB.

When device IOTLB is enabled by setting VIRTIO_F_IOMMU_PLATFORM all vq
addresses set by ioctl are treated as iova instead of virtual address and
the accessing can only be done through IOTLB instead of direct userspace
memory access. Before each round or vq processing, all vq metadata is
prefetched in device IOTLB to make sure no translation fault happens
during vq processing.

In most cases, virtqueues are contiguous even in virtual address space.
The IOTLB translation for virtqueue itself may make it a little
slower. We might add fast path cache on top of this patch.

vhost: convert pre sorted vhost memory array to interval tree

2016-08-01T23:57:31+00:00

Current pre-sorted memory region array has some limitations for future
device IOTLB conversion:

1) need extra work for adding and removing a single region, and it's
   expected to be slow because of sorting or memory re-allocation.
2) need extra work of removing a large range which may intersect
   several regions with different size.
3) need trick for a replacement policy like LRU

To overcome the above shortcomings, this patch convert it to interval
tree which can easily address the above issue with almost no extra
work.

The patch could be used for:

- Extend the current API and only let the userspace to send diffs of
  memory table.
- Simplify Device IOTLB implementation.
