x86/pvclock: add setter for pvclock_pvti_cpu0_va

2017-11-08T21:33:14+00:00

Right now there is only a pvclock_pvti_cpu0_va() which is defined
on kvmclock since:

commit dac16fba6fc5
("x86/vdso: Get pvclock data from the vvar VMA instead of the fixmap")

The only user of this interface so far is kvm. This commit adds a
setter function for the pvti page and moves pvclock_pvti_cpu0_va
to pvclock, which is a more generic place to have it; and would
allow other PV clocksources to use it, such as Xen.

While moving pvclock_pvti_cpu0_va into pvclock, rename also this
function to pvclock_get_pvti_cpu0_va (including its call sites)
to be symmetric with the setter (pvclock_set_pvti_cpu0_va).

X86/KVM: Clear encryption attribute when SEV is active

2017-11-07T14:36:00+00:00

The guest physical memory area holding the struct pvclock_wall_clock and
struct pvclock_vcpu_time_info are shared with the hypervisor. It
periodically updates the contents of the memory.

When SEV is active, the encryption attributes from the shared memory pages
must be cleared so that both hypervisor and guest can access the data.

kvm: Return -ENODEV from update_persistent_clock

2017-11-02T17:23:18+00:00

kvm does not support setting the RTC, so the correct result is -ENODEV.
Returning -1 will cause sync_cmos_clock to keep trying to set the RTC
every second.

sched/headers: Prepare for new header dependencies before moving code to

2017-03-02T07:42:27+00:00

We are going to split  out of , which
will have to be picked up from other headers and .c files.

Create a trivial placeholder  file that just
maps to  to make this patch obviously correct and
bisectable.

Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "4.11 is going to be a relatively large release for KVM, with a little
  over 200 commits and noteworthy changes for most architectures.

  ARM:
   - GICv3 save/restore
   - cache flushing fixes
   - working MSI injection for GICv3 ITS
   - physical timer emulation

  MIPS:
   - various improvements under the hood
   - support for SMP guests
   - a large rewrite of MMU emulation. KVM MIPS can now use MMU
     notifiers to support copy-on-write, KSM, idle page tracking,
     swapping, ballooning and everything else. KVM_CAP_READONLY_MEM is
     also supported, so that writes to some memory regions can be
     treated as MMIO. The new MMU also paves the way for hardware
     virtualization support.

  PPC:
   - support for POWER9 using the radix-tree MMU for host and guest
   - resizable hashed page table
   - bugfixes.

  s390:
   - expose more features to the guest
   - more SIMD extensions
   - instruction execution protection
   - ESOP2

  x86:
   - improved hashing in the MMU
   - faster PageLRU tracking for Intel CPUs without EPT A/D bits
   - some refactoring of nested VMX entry/exit code, preparing for live
     migration support of nested hypervisors
   - expose yet another AVX512 CPUID bit
   - host-to-guest PTP support
   - refactoring of interrupt injection, with some optimizations thrown
     in and some duct tape removed.
   - remove lazy FPU handling
   - optimizations of user-mode exits
   - optimizations of vcpu_is_preempted() for KVM guests

  generic:
   - alternative signaling mechanism that doesn't pound on
     tsk->sighand->siglock"

sched/clock: Fix hotplug crash

2017-01-20T01:38:46+00:00

Mike reported that he could trigger the WARN_ON_ONCE() in
set_sched_clock_stable() using hotplug.

This exposed a fundamental problem with the interface, we should never
mark the TSC stable if we ever find it to be unstable. Therefore
set_sched_clock_stable() is a broken interface.

The reason it existed is that not having it is a pain, it means all
relevant architecture code needs to call clear_sched_clock_stable()
where appropriate.

Of the three architectures that select HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK ia64
and parisc are trivial in that they never called
set_sched_clock_stable(), so add an unconditional call to
clear_sched_clock_stable() to them.

For x86 the story is a lot more involved, and what this patch tries to
do is ensure we preserve the status quo. So even is Cyrix or Transmeta
have usable TSC they never called set_sched_clock_stable() so they now
get an explicit mark unstable.

clocksource: Use a plain u64 instead of cycle_t

2016-12-25T10:04:12+00:00

There is no point in having an extra type for extra confusion. u64 is
unambiguous.

Conversion was done with the following coccinelle script:
