The 'Total' line looks a bit weird when we have a single event only. This can happen e.g. due to filters. Therefore suppress when there's only a single event in the output. Signed-off-by: Stefan Raspl <raspl@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

We keep the current logic that sorts all events (parent and child), but re-shuffle the events afterwards, grouping the children after the respective parent. Note that the percentage column for child events gives the percentage of the parent's total. Since we rework the logic anyway, we modify the total average calculation to use the raw numbers instead of the (rounded) averages. Note that this can result in differing numbers (between total average and the sum of the individual averages) due to rounding errors.

Drilldown (i.e. toggle display of child trace events) was implemented by overriding the fields filter. This resulted in inconsistencies: E.g. when drilldown was not active, adding a filter that also matches child trace events would not only filter fields according to the filter, but also add in the child trace events matching the filter. E.g. on x86, setting 'kvm_userspace_exit' as the fields filter after startup would result in display of kvm_userspace_exit(DCR), although that wasn't previously present - not exactly what one would expect from a filter. This patch addresses the issue by keeping drilldown and fields filter separate. While at it, we also fix a PEP8 issue by adding a blank line at one place (since we're in the area...). We implement this by adding a framework that also allows to define a taxonomy among the debugfs events to identify child trace events. I.e. drilldown using 'x' can now also work with debugfs. A respective parent- child relationship is only known for S390 at the moment, but could be added adjusting other platforms' ARCH.dbg_is_child() methods accordingly.

Te checks for debugfs assumed that debugfs is always mounted at /sys/kernel/debug - which is likely, but not guaranteed. This is addressed by checking /proc/mounts for the actual location. Furthermore, when debugfs was mounted, but the kvm module not loaded, a misleading error pointing towards debugfs not present was given. To reproduce, (a) run kvm_stat with debugfs mounted at a place different from /sys/kernel/debug (b) run kvm_stat with debugfs mounted but kvm module not loaded Signed-off-by: Stefan Raspl <raspl@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

The 'sortkey' function references a value in its enclosing scope (closure). This is not common practice for a sort key function so let's replace it. Additionally, the function 'sorted' has already a parameter for reversing the result therefore the inversion of the values is unneeded. The check for stats[x][1] is also superfluous as it's ensured that this value is initialized with 0.

This triggers a race condition when running the testcase with multiple threads. Sometimes one thread exits with a triple fault while another thread mmaps and operates on the same vCPU. Because CS=0x3000/IP=0x8000 is not mapped, accessing the SMI handler results in an EPT misconfig.

Halting the vcpu here means the event won't be injected to L2 and this decision isn't reported to L1. Thus L0 drops an event that should be injected to L2.

On x86, special KVM memslots such as the TSS region have anonymous memory mappings created on behalf of userspace, and these mappings are removed when the VM is destroyed. It is however possible for removing these mappings via vm_munmap() to fail. This can most easily happen if the thread receives SIGKILL while it's waiting to acquire ->mmap_sem. This triggers the 'WARN_ON(r < 0)' in __x86_set_memory_region(). syzkaller was able to hit this, using 'exit()' to send the SIGKILL. Note that while the vm_munmap() failure results in the mapping not being removed immediately, it is not leaked forever but rather will be freed when the process exits. It's not really possible to handle this failure properly, so almost every other caller of vm_munmap() doesn't check the return value. It's a limitation of having the kernel manage these mappings rather than userspace. So just remove the WARN_ON() so that users can't spam the kernel log with this warning.

Right now, SET CLOCK called in the guest does not properly take care of the epoch index, as the call goes via the old kvm_s390_set_tod_clock() interface. So the epoch index is neither reset to 0, if required, nor properly set to e.g. 0xff on negative values. Fix this by providing a single kvm_s390_set_tod_clock() function. Move Multiple-epoch facility handling into it.

For now, we don't take care of over/underflows. Especially underflows are critical: Assume the epoch is currently 0 and we get a sync request for delta=1, meaning the TOD is moved forward by 1 and we have to fix it up by subtracting 1 from the epoch. Right now, this will leave the epoch index untouched, resulting in epoch=-1, epoch_idx=0, which is wrong. We have to take care of over and underflows, also for the VSIE case. So let's factor out calculation into a separate function.

In banked-sr.c, we use a top-level '__asm__(".arch_extension virt")' statement to allow compilation of a multi-CPU kernel for ARMv6 and older ARMv7-A that don't normally support access to the banked registers. This is considered to be a programming error by the gcc developers and will no longer work in gcc-8, where we now get a build error: /tmp/cc4Qy7GR.s:34: Error: Banked registers are not available with this architecture. -- `mrs r3,SP_usr' /tmp/cc4Qy7GR.s:41: Error: Banked registers are not available with this architecture. -- `mrs r3,ELR_hyp' /tmp/cc4Qy7GR.s:55: Error: Banked registers are not available with this architecture. -- `mrs r3,SP_svc' /tmp/cc4Qy7GR.s:62: Error: Banked registers are not available with this architecture. -- `mrs r3,LR_svc' /tmp/cc4Qy7GR.s:69: Error: Banked registers are not available with this architecture. -- `mrs r3,SPSR_svc' /tmp/cc4Qy7GR.s:76: Error: Banked registers are not available with this architecture. -- `mrs r3,SP_abt' Passign the '-march-armv7ve' flag to gcc works, and is ok here, because we know the functions won't ever be called on pre-ARMv7VE machines. Unfortunately, older compiler versions (4.8 and earlier) do not understand that flag, so we still need to keep the asm around. Backporting to stable kernels (4.6+) is needed to allow those to be built with future compilers as well.

Christoffer Dall authored
When introducing support for irqchip in userspace we needed a way to mask the timer signal to prevent the guest continuously exiting due to a screaming timer. We did this by disabling the corresponding percpu interrupt on the host interrupt controller, because we cannot rely on the host system having a GIC, and therefore cannot make any assumptions about having an active state to hide the timer signal. Unfortunately, when introducing this feature, it became entirely possible that a VCPU which belongs to a VM that has a userspace irqchip can disable the vtimer irq on the host on some physical CPU, and then go away without ever enabling the vtimer irq on that physical CPU again. This means that using irqchips in userspace on a system that also supports running VMs with an in-kernel GIC can prevent forward progress from in-kernel GIC VMs. Later on, when we started taking virtual timer interrupts in the arch timer code, we would also leave this timer state active for userspace irqchip VMs, because we leave it up to a VGIC-enabled guest to deactivate the hardware IRQ using the HW bit in the LR. Both issues are solved by only using the enable/disable trick on systems that do not have a host GIC which supports the active state, because all VMs on such systems must use irqchips in userspace. Systems that have a working GIC with support for an active state use the active state to mask the timer signal for both userspace and in-kernel irqchips.

For interrupt injection of floating interrupts we queue the interrupt either in the GISA or in the floating interrupt list. The first CPU that looks at these data structures - either in KVM code or hardware will then deliver that interrupt. To minimize latency we also: -a: choose a VCPU to deliver that interrupt. We prefer idle CPUs -b: we wake up the host thread that runs the VCPU -c: set an I/O intervention bit for that CPU so that it exits guest context as soon as the PSW I/O mask is enabled This will make sure that this CPU will execute the interrupt delivery code of KVM very soon. We can now optimize the injection case if we have exitless interrupts. The wakeup is still necessary in case the target CPU sleeps. We can avoid the I/O intervention request bit though. Whenever this intervention request would be handled, the hardware could also directly inject the interrupt on that CPU, no need to go through the interrupt injection loop of KVM.

The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we should be all done. Scripted-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Pull more poll annotation updates from Al Viro: "This is preparation to solving the problems you've mentioned in the original poll series. After this series, the kernel is ready for running for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'` for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\<POLL$V\>\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done done as a for bulk search-and-replace. After that, the kernel is ready to apply the patch to unify {de,}mangle_poll(), and then get rid of kernel-side POLL... uses entirely, and we should be all done with that stuff. Basically, that's what you suggested wrt KPOLL..., except that we can use EPOLL... instead - they already are arch-independent (and equal to what is currently kernel-side POLL...). After the preparations (in this series) switch to returning EPOLL... from ->poll() instances is completely mechanical and kernel-side POLL... can go away. The last step (killing kernel-side POLL... and unifying {de,}mangle_poll() has to be done after the search-and-replace job, since we need userland-side POLL... for unified {de,}mangle_poll(), thus the cherry-pick at the last step. After that we will have: - POLL{IN,OUT,...} *not* in __poll_t, so any stray instances of ->poll() still using those will be caught by sparse. - eventpoll.c and select.c warning-free wrt __poll_t - no more kernel-side definitions of POLL... - userland ones are visible through the entire kernel (and used pretty much only for mangle/demangle) - same behavior as after the first series (i.e. sparc et.al. epoll(2) working correctly)" * 'work.poll2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: annotate ep_scan_ready_list() ep_send_events_proc(): return result via esed->res preparation to switching ->poll() to returning EPOLL... add EPOLLNVAL, annotate EPOLL... and event_poll->event use linux/poll.h instead of asm/poll.h xen: fix poll misannotation smc: missing poll annotations
