xen/events: add a new "late EOI" evtchn framework

2020-10-20T08:21:59Z

In order to avoid tight event channel related IRQ loops add a new framework of "late EOI" handling: the IRQ the event channel is bound to will be masked until the event has been handled and the related driver is capable to handle another event. The driver is responsible for unmasking the event channel via the new function xen_irq_lateeoi(). This is similar to binding an event channel to a threaded IRQ, but without having to structure the driver accordingly. In order to support a future special handling in case a rogue guest is sending lots of unsolicited events, add a flag to xen_irq_lateeoi() which can be set by the caller to indicate the event was a spurious one. This is part of XSA-332. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reported-by: Julien Grall Signed-off-by: Juergen Gross Reviewed-by: Jan Beulich Reviewed-by: Stefano Stabellini Reviewed-by: Wei Liu

xen/events: fix binding user event channels to cpus

2019-07-17T06:09:57Z

When binding an interdomain event channel to a vcpu via IOCTL_EVTCHN_BIND_INTERDOMAIN not only the event channel needs to be bound, but the affinity of the associated IRQi must be changed, too. Otherwise the IRQ and the event channel won't be moved to another vcpu in case the original vcpu they were bound to is going offline.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

2017-11-02T10:10:55Z

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches. Reviewed-by: Kate Stewart Reviewed-by: Philippe Ombredanne Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

xen-evtchn: Bind dyn evtchn:qemu-dm interrupt to next online VCPU

2017-06-13T13:30:27Z

A HVM domian booting generates around 200K (evtchn:qemu-dm xen-dyn) interrupts,in a short period of time. All these evtchn:qemu-dm are bound to VCPU 0, until irqbalance sees these IRQ and moves it to a different VCPU. In one configuration, irqbalance runs every 10 seconds, which means irqbalance doesn't get to see these burst of interrupts and doesn't re-balance interrupts most of the time, making all evtchn:qemu-dm to be processed by VCPU0. This cause VCPU0 to spend most of time processing hardirq and very little time on softirq. Moreover, if dom0 kernel PREEMPTION is disabled, VCPU0 never runs watchdog (process context), triggering a softlockup detection code to panic. Binding evtchn:qemu-dm to next online VCPU, will spread hardirq processing evenly across different CPU. Later, irqbalance will try to balance evtchn:qemu-dm, if required.

xen/events: Support event channel rebind on ARM

2015-08-20T11:24:15Z

Currently, the event channel rebind code is gated with the presence of the vector callback. The virtual interrupt controller on ARM has the concept of per-CPU interrupt (PPI) which allow us to support per-VCPU event channel. Therefore there is no need of vector callback for ARM. Xen is already using a free PPI to notify the guest VCPU of an event. Furthermore, the xen code initialization in Linux (see arch/arm/xen/enlighten.c) is requesting correctly a per-CPU IRQ. Introduce new helper xen_support_evtchn_rebind to allow architecture decide whether rebind an event is support or not. It will always return true on ARM and keep the same behavior on x86. This is also allow us to drop the usage of xen_have_vector_callback entirely in the ARM code. Signed-off-by: Julien Grall Signed-off-by: David Vrabel

xen/events: don't bind non-percpu VIRQs with percpu chip

2015-05-19T18:55:36Z

A non-percpu VIRQ (e.g., VIRQ_CONSOLE) may be freed on a different VCPU than it is bound to. This can result in a race between handle_percpu_irq() and removing the action in __free_irq() because handle_percpu_irq() does not take desc->lock. The interrupt handler sees a NULL action and oopses. Only use the percpu chip/handler for per-CPU VIRQs (like VIRQ_TIMER). # cat /proc/interrupts | grep virq 40: 87246 0 xen-percpu-virq timer0 44: 0 0 xen-percpu-virq debug0 47: 0 20995 xen-percpu-virq timer1 51: 0 0 xen-percpu-virq debug1 69: 0 0 xen-dyn-virq xen-pcpu 74: 0 0 xen-dyn-virq mce 75: 29 0 xen-dyn-virq hvc_console Signed-off-by: David Vrabel Cc:
