You'd need to track pte->grant_handle mappings somewhere, but it could

At the moment, blktap and gntdev provide struct pages to get_user_pages 
by smuggling them in the vm_private_data field of the relevant 
vm_area_struct. Could we use this field to get the handles to 
ptep_get_and_clear_full as well?


Only downside that I can see is that we would need to find the vma for 
each PTE that needs to be cleared this way (since we don't get this 
passed to ptep_get_and_clear_full), but this is mitigated by (i) it only 
happening in the erroneous, unclean-shutdown case, and (ii) getting a 
hit in the mm->mmap_cache for consecutive runs of mapped grants.

Sure. the kernel has to keep track of the grant mappings somewhere, so
it can lookup the grant handle from the available information.  Hashing
by machine address should work reasonable fast.  It's probably useful to
have an in-kernel API for that which then can be used by both gntdev and
the in-kernel backend drivers.  This API can also abstract out
arch-specific bits to make life easier for the ia64 guys ...

[PATCH] xen: Make xen-blkfront write its protocol ABI to xenstore

2007-12-06 Thread Markus Armbruster
Frontends are expected to write their protocol ABI to xenstore.  Since
the protocol ABI defaults to the backend's native ABI, things work
fine without that as long as the frontend's native ABI is identical to
the backend's native ABI.  This is not the case for xen-blkfront
running 32-on-64, because its ABI differs between 32 and 64 bit, and
thus needs this fix.

Based on http://xenbits.xensource.com/xen-unstable.hg?rev/c545932a18f3

[PATCH] virtnet: remove double ether_setup

Hello Rusty,

virtnet_probe already calls alloc_etherdev, which calls ether_setup.
There is no need to do that again.

Yes, except that it should actually work ;)

It doesn't for me (Fedora 8 again).  Grab xenner 0.9 (just uploaded),
edit blkbackd.c and flip the BATCH_MAPS from 0 to 1, compile, run, see
it not work.

With BATCH_MAPS being 0 blkbackd works nicely as blktap/tapdisk drop-in
replacement.

Which version of the Xen tools are you using? There was a bug in the 
version released with Xen 3.1, which should have been cleaned up in the 
subsequent minor versions. Try grabbing the patch to libxc at:


http://xenbits.xensource.com/xen-3.1-testing.hg?raw-rev/135d5088909f

Otherwise, if this doesn't work/is some other issue, could you post the 
OOPS and relevant Xen console output?

[PATCH] virtio_net: Fix stalled inbound traffic on early packets

2007-12-06 Thread Christian Borntraeger
The current virtio_net driver has a startup race, which prevents any
incoming traffic:

If try_fill_recv submits buffers to the host system data might be
filled in and an interrupt is sent, before napi_enable finishes.
In that case the interrupt will kick skb_recv_done which will then
call netif_rx_schedule. netif_rx_schedule checks, if NAPI_STATE_SCHED
is set - which is not as we did not run napi_enable. No poll routine
is scheduled. Furthermore, skb_recv_done returns false, we disables
interrupts for this device.

One solution is the enable napi before inbound buffer are available.

Probably it is this one, according to rpm version is 3.1.0, so most
likely the fix isn't there.

There isn't any, the mapping just doesn't work (libxc returning NULL).

[PATCH 1/19] unify desc_struct

2007-12-06 Thread Glauber de Oliveira Costa
This patch aims to make the access of struct desc_struct variables
equal across architectures. In this patch, I unify the i386 and x86_64
versions under an anonymous union, keeping the way they are accessed
untouched (a and b for 32-bit code, individual bit-fields for 64-bit).

This solution is not beautiful, but will allow us to integrate common
code that differed by the way descriptors were used. This is to be viewed
incrementally. There's simply too much code to be fixed at once.

In the future, goal is to set up in a single way of acessing
the desc_struct fields.

[PATCH 0/19] desc_struct integration

2007-12-06 Thread Glauber de Oliveira Costa
Hi,

this is a series of patches that unify the struct desc_struct and friends
across x86_64 and i386. As usual, it provides paravirt capabilities as a
side-effect for x86_64.

I consider the main goal, namely, of unifying the desc_struct, an ongoing
effort, being this the beginning. A lot of old code has to be touched to
accomplish that. 

I don't consider this patch ready for inclusion. Basically, the main reason
is that I change the signatures of write_idt_entry(), write_gdt_entry(), and
write_ldt_entry(). This is needed to account for the differences between the
two architectures. (For example, gate descriptors in x86_64 are 16-byte long
and can't be represented by low and high entries). As my patch series were
64-bit only, I hadn't come across the problem before.

I think this interface is sane, but I'd like to hear opinions. Specially
from Jeremy and Zach, since it would touch xen and vmi code. The later, by
the way, is _not_ included in this series. Being the interface acked, we
still have to write it.

Thanks in advance for the review in opinions to come.

this patch changes write_idt_entry signature. It now takes a gate_desc
instead of the a and b parameters. It will allow it to be later unified
between i386 and x86_64.

[PATCH 2/19] unify struct desc_ptr

2007-12-06 Thread Glauber de Oliveira Costa
This patch unifies struct desc_ptr between i386 and x86_64.
They can be expressed in the exact same way in C code, only
having to change the name of one of them. As Xgt_desc_struct
is ugly and big, this is the one that goes away.

There's also a padding field in i386, but it is not really
needed in the C structure definition.

[PATCH 13/19] unify non-paravirt parts of desc.h

2007-12-06 Thread Glauber de Oliveira Costa
This patch unifies the non-paravirt part of desc_{32,64}.h into
desc.h. Most of it, is simply common code, that is moved to
the shared header. The only exception is the set_ldt_desc in desc_64.h,
which is changed - included its name - to accomodate for the way
the ldt is set up in i386.

Also, constant definitions used in desc_32.h are moved to desc_defs.h

[PATCH 18/19] move _set_gate and its users to a common location

2007-12-06 Thread Glauber de Oliveira Costa
This patch moves _set_gate and its users to desc.h. We can now
use common code for x86_64 and i386.

[PATCH 17/19] unify paravirt pieces of descriptor handling

2007-12-06 Thread Glauber de Oliveira Costa
With the types used to access descriptors in x86_64 and i386
now being the same, the code that effectively handles them can
now be easily shared. This patch moves the paravirt part of
desc_32.h into desc.h, and then, we get paravirt support in x86_64
for free.

[PATCH 19/19] unify set_tss_desc

This patch unifies the set_tss_desc between i386 and x86_64,
which can now have a common implementation. After the old
functions are removed from desc_{32,64}.h, nothing important is
left, and the files can be removed.

[PATCH 10/19] change write_gdt_entry signature.

2007-12-06 Thread Glauber de Oliveira Costa
This patch changes the write_gdt_entry function signature.
Instead of the old "a" and "b" parameters, it now receives
a pointer to a desc_struct, and the size of the entry being
handled. This is because x86_64 can have some 16-byte entries
as well as 8-byte ones.

There may be, but it's not the problem I'm trying to address in this
series. It's probably not too hard
to come up with a macro that receives the relevant parts of the
descriptors and create the initializers.

but it's deferred work.

The standard clean way to do this is with a anonymous union.

The usual reason for these types of "volatiles" is to make type checking
happier, since "volatile void *" is compatible with any argument you
might pass.  IOW, if you pass a plain "char *" then the compiler will
promote it to "volatile char *" and not complain, and passing an already
volatile pointer will be OK too.

The volatile isn't there to modify the generated code in any way.

It is an anonymous union.

However:

* It's an union of structs
* I wished to keep the toplevel type as a struct
The alternative would be to write:

struct desc_struct {
union {
struct { unsigned int a, b; };
struct {
   u16 limit0;
   u16 base0;
   unsigned base1 : 8, type : 4, s : 1, dpl : 2, p : 1;
   unsigned limit : 4, avl : 1, l : 1, d : 1, g : 1, base2 :8;
};
};
};

Which is fine, it's all the same in the end. Just with more shift
rights, and more visual pollution.

No, that's much clearer.  It's a pity that the anonymous struct/union
syntax isn't general enough to allow:

struct desc_packed {
   u16 limit0;
   u16 base0;
   unsigned base1 : 8, type : 4, s : 1, dpl : 2, p : 1;
   unsigned limit : 4, avl : 1, l : 1, d : 1, g : 1, base2 :8;
};

struct desc {
struct desc_packed;
};

Yes.  Given the mm and a vaddr passed to ptep_get_and_clear, find_vma()
will return the vma_struct.  If we assert that anyone who sets the "I'm
foreign" bit in a pte has a standard format for the vm_private_data
field, then we can stash a callback pointer there and make the
appropriate callback.

Yes.  find_vma is fairly hot, since its used on every fault, so it
should be reasonably fast.  And it doesn't sound like our case is
particularly performance critical.
