[kvm-devel] [patch] qemu/ia64 include prototype for qemu_mallocz

2008-04-21 Thread Jes Sorensen

Hi,

This one fixes a segfault problem I am seeing on ia64 due to the
malloc'ed address being truncated to 32 bit.

Cheers,
Jes

Include qemu-common.h for the prototype for qemu_mallocz to avoid
the being truncated to 32 bit.

Well we're obviously going to have at least two interfaces given that
we have the traditional Linux one and Xen seems to require something
different :-)

Hi Xiantao,

Just a clarification question on this one:


> +void machine_tlb_purge(u64 va, u64 ps)
> +{
> + ia64_ptcl(va, ps << 2);
> +}

What is the purpose of machine_tlb_purge()? Is it supposed to do a
global purge of the tlb on the host machine? If so, how does this macro
differ from platform_global_tlb_purge()?

I am mentioning this because it's very important to keep in mind that
the regular tlb purging instructions are not functional on all ia64
platforms, which is why we have special implementations via the
machine vector interface.

Jes

I wasn't suggesting we shouldn't have both interfaces, merely

hit for the classic case of the call.

ARGH! Please see previous mail about typedefs! I suspect this is code

More wrapper macros that really should just use ia64_get/set_reg()

You need to check the return values from copy_from_user() here and
deal with possible failure.

The standard indentation for Linux is 8 characters using tabs. If
possible it's preferred to comply with that to make the entire kernel

Hi Xiantao,

I'm a little wary of the performance impact of this change. Doing a
cpumask compare on all smp_call_function calls seems a little expensive.
Maybe it's just noise in the big picture compared to the actual cost of
the IPIs, but I thought I'd bring it up.

Keep in mind that a cpumask can be fairly big these days, max NR_CPUS
is currently 4096. For those booting a kernel with NR_CPUS at 4096 on
a dual CPU machine, it would be a bit expensive.

Why not keep smp_call_function() the way it was before, rather than
implementing it via the call to smp_call_function_mask()?

Jes

Re: [kvm-devel] [01/17]PATCH Add API for allocating dynamic TR resouce. V8

2008-03-31 Thread Jes Sorensen
Hi Xiantao,

I general I think the code in this patch is fine. I have a couple of
nit-picking comments:

> + if (target_mask&0x1) {

The formatting here isn't quite what most of the kernel does. It would
be better if you added spaces so it's a little easier to read, ie:

if (target_mask & 0x1) {

> + p = &__per_cpu_idtrs[cpu][0][0];
> + for (i = IA64_TR_ALLOC_BASE; i <= per_cpu(ia64_tr_used,
> cpu);
> + i++,
> p++) {
> + if (p->pte&0x1)

Same thing here.

> +#define RR_TO_RID(rr) ((rr)<<32>>40)

I would prefer to have this one defined like this:

#define RR_TO_RID(rr)   (rr >> 8) & 0xff

It should generate the same code, but is more intuitive for the reader.

Otherwise I think this patch is fine - this is really just cosmetics.

Jes

Hi Xiantao,

Please, put it in a public tree somewhere, either on kernel.org or
a different public server. This is how everybody else does Open Source
development - it is much easier in the long run as others will be
able to send you fixes instead of waiting 4 months.

Hi Xiantao,

If you could put up the patches somewhere, I could
help you clean them up and push them. I would prefer not
to wait until they appear in Linus' tree if possible.

Cheers,
Jes

[kvm-devel] ia64 kernel patches?

2008-01-24 Thread Jes Sorensen
Hi,

Trying to browse the list archives, but both gmane and sourcefrog's
interfaces are really painful to deal with.

So, any chance someone could point me at the current ia64 KVM kernel
patches? I notice they are not yet in Avi's tree.

Cheers,
Jes
