mutex_trylock() returns 1 if you take the lock and 0 if not. Assume you take in_mutex on the first try, but you can't take out_mutex. Next times you call mutex_trylock() in_mutex is going to fail. It's an endless loop. Solve the problem by waiting until the global refcount is 1 instead (the refcount is 1 when the only active pvcalls frontend function is pvcalls_front_release).

2017-11-06xen: re-introduce support for grant v2 interfaceJuergen Gross1-6/+306
The grant v2 support was removed from the kernel with commit 438b33c7145ca8a5131a30c36d8f59bce119a19a ("xen/grant-table: remove support for V2 tables") as the higher memory footprint of v2 grants resulted in less grants being possible for a kernel compared to the v1 grant interface. As machines with more than 16TB of memory are expected to be more common in the near future support of grant v2 is mandatory in order to be able to run a Xen pv domain at any memory location. So re-add grant v2 support basically by reverting above commit.

2017-11-02xen/time: do not decrease steal time after live migration on xenDongli Zhang2-7/+72
After guest live migration on xen, steal time in /proc/stat (cpustat[CPUTIME_STEAL]) might decrease because steal returned by xen_steal_lock() might be less than this_rq()->prev_steal_time which is derived from previous return value of xen_steal_clock(). For instance, steal time of each vcpu is 335 before live migration. cpu 198 0 368 200064 1962 0 0 1340 0 0 cpu0 38 0 81 50063 492 0 0 335 0 0 cpu1 65 0 97 49763 634 0 0 335 0 0 cpu2 38 0 81 50098 462 0 0 335 0 0 cpu3 56 0 107 50138 374 0 0 335 0 0 After live migration, steal time is reduced to 312. cpu 200 0 370 200330 1971 0 0 1248 0 0 cpu0 38 0 82 50123 500 0 0 312 0 0 cpu1 65 0 97 49832 634 0 0 312 0 0 cpu2 39 0 82 50167 462 0 0 312 0 0 cpu3 56 0 107 50207 374 0 0 312 0 0 Since runstate times are cumulative and cleared during xen live migration by xen hypervisor, the idea of this patch is to accumulate runstate times to global percpu variables before live migration suspend. Once guest VM is resumed, xen_get_runstate_snapshot_cpu() would always return the sum of new runstate times and previously accumulated times stored in global percpu variables. Comment above HYPERVISOR_suspend() has been removed as it is inaccurate: the call can return an error code (e.g., possibly -EPERM in the future). Similar and more severe issue would impact prior linux 4.8-4.10 as discussed by Michael Las at https://0xstubs.org/debugging-a-flaky-cpu-steal-time-counter-on-a-paravirtualized-xen-guest, which would overflow steal time and lead to 100% st usage in top command for linux 4.8-4.10. A backport of this patch would fix that issue.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core Pull initial SPDX identifiers from Greg KH: "License cleanup: add SPDX license identifiers to some files 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.

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.

For active sockets, check the indexes and use the inflight_conn_req waitqueue to wait. For passive sockets if an accept is outstanding (PVCALLS_FLAG_ACCEPT_INFLIGHT), check if it has been answered by looking at bedata->rsp[req_id]. If so, return POLLIN. Otherwise use the inflight_accept_req waitqueue. If no accepts are inflight, send PVCALLS_POLL to the backend. If we have outstanding POLL requests awaiting for a response use the inflight_req waitqueue: inflight_req is awaken when a new response is received; on wakeup we check whether the POLL response is arrived by looking at the PVCALLS_FLAG_POLL_RET flag. We set the flag from pvcalls_front_event_handler, if the response was for a POLL command. In pvcalls_front_event_handler, get the struct sock_mapping from the poll id (we previously converted struct sock_mapping* to uintptr_t and used it as id).

2017-10-31xen/pvcalls: implement accept commandStefano Stabellini2-0/+148
Introduce a waitqueue to allow only one outstanding accept command at any given time and to implement polling on the passive socket. Introduce a flags field to keep track of in-flight accept and poll commands. Send PVCALLS_ACCEPT to the backend. Allocate a new active socket. Make sure that only one accept command is executed at any given time by setting PVCALLS_FLAG_ACCEPT_INFLIGHT and waiting on the inflight_accept_req waitqueue. Convert the new struct sock_mapping pointer into an uintptr_t and use it as id for the new socket to pass to the backend. Check if the accept call is non-blocking: in that case after sending the ACCEPT command to the backend store the sock_mapping pointer of the new struct and the inflight req_id then return -EAGAIN (which will respond only when there is something to accept). Next time accept is called, we'll check if the ACCEPT command has been answered, if so we'll pick up where we left off, otherwise we return -EAGAIN again. Note that, differently from the other commands, we can use wait_event_interruptible (instead of wait_event) in the case of accept as we are able to track the req_id of the ACCEPT response that we are waiting.

2017-10-31xen/pvcalls: implement socket command and handle eventsStefano Stabellini2-0/+139
Send a PVCALLS_SOCKET command to the backend, use the masked req_prod_pvt as req_id. This way, req_id is guaranteed to be between 0 and PVCALLS_NR_REQ_PER_RING. We already have a slot in the rsp array ready for the response, and there cannot be two outstanding responses with the same req_id. Wait for the response by waiting on the inflight_req waitqueue and check for the req_id field in rsp[req_id]. Use atomic accesses and barriers to read the field. Note that the barriers are simple smp barriers (as opposed to virt barriers) because they are for internal frontend synchronization, not frontend<->backend communication. Once a response is received, clear the corresponding rsp slot by setting req_id to PVCALLS_INVALID_ID. Note that PVCALLS_INVALID_ID is invalid only from the frontend point of view. It is not part of the PVCalls protocol. pvcalls_front_event_handler is in charge of copying responses from the ring to the appropriate rsp slot. It is done by copying the body of the response first, then by copying req_id atomically. After the copies, wake up anybody waiting on waitqueue. socket_lock protects accesses to the ring. Convert the pointer to sock_mapping into an uintptr_t and use it as id for the new socket to pass to the backend. The struct will be fully initialized later on connect or bind. sock->sk->sk_send_head is not used for ip sockets: reuse the field to store a pointer to the struct sock_mapping corresponding to the socket. This way, we can easily get the struct sock_mapping from the struct socket.

Commit 96edd61dcf44362d3ef0bed1a5361e0ac7886a63 ("xen/balloon: don't online new memory initially") introduced a regression when booting a HVM domain with memory less than mem-max: instead of ballooning down immediately the system would try to use the memory up to mem-max resulting in Xen crashing the domain. For HVM domains the current size will be reflected in Xenstore node memory/static-max instead of memory/target. Additionally we have to trigger the ballooning process at once.

2017-09-13mm: treewide: remove GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flagMichal Hocko1-1/+1
GFP_TEMPORARY was introduced by commit e12ba74d8ff3 ("Group short-lived and reclaimable kernel allocations") along with __GFP_RECLAIMABLE. It's primary motivation was to allow users to tell that an allocation is short lived and so the allocator can try to place such allocations close together and prevent long term fragmentation. As much as this sounds like a reasonable semantic it becomes much less clear when to use the highlevel GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flag. How long is temporary? Can the context holding that memory sleep? Can it take locks? It seems there is no good answer for those questions. The current implementation of GFP_TEMPORARY is basically GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_RECLAIMABLE which in itself is tricky because basically none of the existing caller provide a way to reclaim the allocated memory. So this is rather misleading and hard to evaluate for any benefits. I have checked some random users and none of them has added the flag with a specific justification. I suspect most of them just copied from other existing users and others just thought it might be a good idea to use without any measuring. This suggests that GFP_TEMPORARY just motivates for cargo cult usage without any reasoning. I believe that our gfp flags are quite complex already and especially those with highlevel semantic should be clearly defined to prevent from confusion and abuse. Therefore I propose dropping GFP_TEMPORARY and replace all existing users to simply use GFP_KERNEL. Please note that SLAB users with shrinkers will still get __GFP_RECLAIMABLE heuristic and so they will be placed properly for memory fragmentation prevention. I can see reasons we might want some gfp flag to reflect shorterm allocations but I propose starting from a clear semantic definition and only then add users with proper justification. This was been brought up before LSF this year by Matthew [1] and it turned out that GFP_TEMPORARY really doesn't have a clear semantic. It seems to be a heuristic without any measured advantage for most (if not all) its current users. The follow up discussion has revealed that opinions on what might be temporary allocation differ a lot between developers. So rather than trying to tweak existing users into a semantic which they haven't expected I propose to simply remove the flag and start from scratch if we really need a semantic for short term allocations.
