2009-01-30lguest: Fix a memory leak with the lg object during launcher closeMark Wallis1-3/+2
Fix a memory leak identified by Rusty Russell during LCA09 by kfree'ing the lg object instead of just clearing it when the launcher closes. Signed-off-by: Mark Wallis <mwallis@serialmonkey.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-12-30lguest: move the initial guest page table creation code to the hostMatias Zabaljauregui1-8/+5
This patch moves the initial guest page table creation code to the host, so the launcher keeps working with PAE enabled configs. Signed-off-by: Matias Zabaljauregui <zabaljauregui@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-05-02lguest: remove bogus NULL cpu checkRusty Russell1-2/+0
If lg isn't NULL, and cpu_id is sane, &lg->cpus[cpu_id] can't be NULL. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-05-02lguest: avoid using NR_CPUS as a bounds check.Rusty Russell1-1/+1
NR_CPUS (being a host number) is an arbitrary limit for the Guest. Using the array size directly (which currently happes to be NR_CPUS) is more futureproof. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

2008-03-28lguest: comment documentation update.Rusty Russell1-9/+21
Took some cycles to re-read the Lguest Journey end-to-end, fix some rot and tighten some phrases. Only comments change. No new jokes, but a couple of recycled old jokes. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-03-11lguest: make sure cpu is initialized before accessing itEugene Teo1-7/+8
If req is LHREQ_INITIALIZE, and the guest has been initialized before (unlikely), it will attempt to access cpu->tsk even though cpu is not yet initialized. Signed-off-by: Eugene Teo <eugeneteo@kernel.sg> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-01-30lguest: Use explicit includes rateher than indirectGlauber de Oliveira Costa1-0/+1
explicitly use ktime.h include explicitly use hrtimer.h include explicitly use sched.h include This patch adds headers explicitly to lguest sources file, to avoid depending on them being included somewhere else. Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-01-30lguest: move last_pages to lg_cpuGlauber de Oliveira Costa1-4/+4
in our new model, pages are assigned to a virtual cpu, not to a guest. We move it to the lg_cpu structure. Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-01-30lguest: make pending notifications per-vcpuGlauber de Oliveira Costa1-2/+2
this patch makes the pending_notify field, used to control pending notifications, per-vcpu, instead of per-guest Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-01-30lguest: per-vcpu lguest task managementGlauber de Oliveira Costa1-25/+28
lguest uses tasks to control its running behaviour (like sending breaks, controlling halted state, etc). In a per-vcpu environment, each vcpu will have its own underlying task. So this patch makes the infrastructure for that possible Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-01-30lguest: make registers per-vcpuGlauber de Oliveira Costa1-18/+19
This is the most obvious per-vcpu field: registers. So this patch moves it from struct lguest to struct vcpu, and patch the places in which they are used, accordingly Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-01-30lguest: per-vcpu interrupt processing.Glauber de Oliveira Costa1-4/+4
This patch adapts interrupt processing for using the vcpu struct. Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-01-30lguest: per-vcpu lguest timersGlauber de Oliveira Costa1-5/+5
Here, I introduce per-vcpu timers. With this, we can have local expiries, needed for accounting time in smp guests Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-01-30lguest: make write() operation smp awareGlauber de Oliveira Costa1-2/+9
This patch makes the write() file operation smp aware. Which means, receiving the vcpu_id value through the offset parameter, and being well aware to which vcpu we're talking to. Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-01-30lguest: per-cpu run guestGlauber de Oliveira Costa1-2/+10
This patch makes the run_guest() routine use the lg_cpu struct. This is required since in a smp guest environment, there's no more the notion of "running the guest", but rather, it is "running the vcpu" Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-01-30lguest: initialize vcpuGlauber de Oliveira Costa1-0/+17
this patch initializes the first vcpu in the initialize() routing, which is responsible for starting the process of putting the guest up. right now, as much of the fields are still not per-vcpu, it does not do much. Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2007-11-14lguest_user.c: fix memory leakAdrian Bunk1-1/+1
This patch fixes a memory leak spotted by the Coverity checker. Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@kernel.org> Cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2007-10-25lguest: documentation updateRusty Russell1-11/+12
Went through the documentation doing typo and content fixes. This patch contains only comment and whitespace changes. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2007-10-23Remove old lguest I/O infrrasructure.Rusty Russell1-34/+5
This patch gets rid of the old lguest host I/O infrastructure and replaces it with a single hypercall "LHCALL_NOTIFY" which takes an address. The main change is the removal of io.c: that mainly did inter-guest I/O, which virtio doesn't yet support. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2007-10-23Boot with virtual == physical to get closer to native Linux.Rusty Russell1-9/+2
1) This allows us to get alot closer to booting bzImages. 2) It means we don't have to know page_offset. 3) The Guest needs to modify the boot pagetables to create the PAGE_OFFSET mapping before jumping to C code. 4) guest_pa() walks the page tables rather than using page_offset. 5) We don't use page_offset to figure out whether to emulate: it was always kinda quesationable, and won't work for instructions done before remapping (bzImage unpacking in particular). 6) We still want the kernel address for tlb flushing: have the initial hypercall give us that, too. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2007-10-23Move register setup into i386_core.cJes Sorensen1-36/+1
Move setup_regs() to lguest_arch_setup_regs() in i386_core.c given that this is very architecture specific. Signed-off-by: Jes Sorensen <jes@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2007-10-23Change example launcher to use unsigned long not u32Jes Sorensen1-15/+16
Apply Clue 2x4 to lguest userland<->kernel handling code and the lguest launcher. Pointers are not to be passed in u32's! Basic rule of thumb: Anything passing u32's back and forth should be passing unsigned longs to be portable to 64 bit archs. For those who forgotten already, I repeat: NO POINTERS IN u32! Signed-off-by: Jes Sorensen <jes@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2007-10-23Remove fixed limit on number of guests, and lguests array.Rusty Russell1-11/+6
Back when we had all the Guest state in the switcher, we had a fixed array of them. This is no longer necessary. If we switch the network code to using random_ether_addr (46 bits is enough to avoid clashes), we can get rid of the concept of "guest id" altogether. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2007-10-23Introduce guest mem offset, static link example launcherRusty Russell1-10/+13
In order to avoid problematic special linking of the Launcher, we give the Host an offset: this means we can use any memory region in the Launcher as Guest memory rather than insisting on mmap() at 0. The result is quite pleasing: a number of casts are replaced with simple additions. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

2007-07-26lguest: documentation I: PreparationRusty Russell1-1/+6
The netfilter code had very good documentation: the Netfilter Hacking HOWTO. Noone ever read it. So this time I'm trying something different, using a bit of Knuthiness.
