x86, xsave: Add forgotten inline annotation

2014-06-18T22:19:59Z

Add a missing inline annotation on a static function, in order to shut up a bunch of warnings like: In file included from arch/x86/crypto/camellia_aesni_avx_glue.c:23:0: ./arch/x86/include/asm/xsave.h:73:12: warning: ‘xsave_state_booting’ defined but not used [-Wunused-function] static int xsave_state_booting(struct xsave_struct *fx, u64 mask) ^ In file included from arch/x86/crypto/camellia_aesni_avx2_glue.c:23:0: ./arch/x86/include/asm/xsave.h:73:12: warning: ‘xsave_state_booting’ defined but not used [-Wunused-function] static int xsave_state_booting(struct xsave_struct *fx, u64 mask) ^ ...

x86/xsave: Make it clear that the XSAVE macros use (%edi)/(%rdi)

2014-05-30T15:19:21Z

The XSAVE instruction family takes a memory argment. The macros use (%edi)/(%rdi) as that memory argument - make that clear to the reader. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin Cc: Fenghua Yu Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1401387164-43416-7-git-send-email-fenghua.yu@intel.com

Define kernel API to get address of each state in xsave area

2014-05-29T21:33:09Z

In standard form, each state is saved in the xsave area in fixed offset. But in compacted form, offset of each saved state only can be calculated during run time because some xstates may not be enabled and saved. We define kernel API get_xsave_addr() returns address of a given state saved in a xsave area. It can be called in kernel to get address of each xstate in xsave area in either standard format or compacted format. It's useful when kernel wants to directly access each state in xsave area.

x86/xsaves: Add xsaves and xrstors support for booting time

2014-05-29T21:33:02Z

Since boot_cpu_data and cpu capabilities are not enabled yet during early booting time, alternative can not be used in some functions to access xsave area. Therefore, we define two new functions xrstor_state_booting() and xsave_state_booting() to access xsave area just during early booting time. xrstor_state_booting restores xstate from xsave area during early booting time. xsave_state_booting saves xstate to xsave area during early booting time. The two functions are similar to xrstor_state and xsave_state respectively. But the two functions don't use alternatives because alternatives are not enabled when they are called in such early booting time. xrstor_state_booting is called only by functions defined as __init. So it's defined as __init and will be removed from memory after booting time. There is no extra memory cost caused by this function during running time. But because xsave_state_booting can be called by run-time function __save_fpu(), it's not defined as __init and will stay in memory during running time although it will not be called anymore during running time. It is not ideal to have this function stay in memory during running time. But it's a pretty small function and the memory cost will be small. By doing in this way, we can avoid to change a lot of code to just remove this small function and save a bit memory for running time.

x86/xsaves: Use xsave/xrstor for saving and restoring user space context

2014-05-29T21:32:57Z

We use legacy xsave/xrstor to save and restore standard form of xsave area in user space context. No xsaveopt or xsaves is used here for two reasons. First, we don't want to use modified optimization which is implemented in xsaveopt and xsaves because xrstor/xrstors might track a wrong user space application. Secondly, we don't use compacted format of xsave area for backward compatibility because legacy user space applications only don't understand the compacted format of the xsave area. Using standard form of the xsave area may allocate more memory for user context than compacted form, but preserves compatibility with legacy applications. Furthermore, even with holes, the relevant cache lines don't get touched and thus the performance impact is limited.

Merge tag 'kvm-3.15-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm

2014-04-02T21:50:10Z

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini: "PPC and ARM do not have much going on this time. Most of the cool stuff, instead, is in s390 and (after a few releases) x86. ARM has some caching fixes and PPC has transactional memory support in guests. MIPS has some fixes, with more probably coming in 3.16 as QEMU will soon get support for MIPS KVM. For x86 there are optimizations for debug registers, which trigger on some Windows games, and other important fixes for Windows guests. We now expose to the guest Broadwell instruction set extensions and also Intel MPX. There's also a fix/workaround for OS X guests, nested virtualization features (preemption timer), and a couple kvmclock refinements. For s390, the main news is asynchronous page faults, together with improvements to IRQs (floating irqs and adapter irqs) that speed up virtio devices" * tag 'kvm-3.15-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm: (96 commits) KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Save/restore host PMU registers that are new in POWER8 KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix decrementer timeouts with non-zero TB offset KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Don't use kvm_memslots() in real mode KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Return ENODEV error rather than EIO KVM: PPC: Book3S: Trim top 4 bits of physical address in RTAS code KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Add get/set_one_reg for new TM state KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Add transactional memory support KVM: Specify byte order for KVM_EXIT_MMIO KVM: vmx: fix MPX detection KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix KVM hang with CONFIG_KVM_XICS=n KVM: PPC: Book3S: Introduce hypervisor call H_GET_TCE KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix incorrect userspace exit on ioeventfd write KVM: s390: clear local interrupts at cpu initial reset KVM: s390: Fix possible memory leak in SIGP functions KVM: s390: fix calculation of idle_mask array size KVM: s390: randomize sca address KVM: ioapic: reinject pending interrupts on KVM_SET_IRQCHIP KVM: Bump KVM_MAX_IRQ_ROUTES for s390 KVM: s390: irq routing for adapter interrupts.
