commit 5f338d9001094a56cf87bd8a280b4e7ff953bb59 upstream.
With the current implementation, the callback in the tail of the list
can be added twice, because the check done in
gnttab_request_free_callback is bogus, callback->next can be NULL if
it is the last callback in the list. If we add the same callback twice
we end up with an infinite loop, were callback == callback->next.
Replace this check with a proper one that iterates over the list to
see if the callback has already been added.

commit d0b4d64aadb9f4a90669848de9ef3819050a98cd upstream.
Commit 85ff6acb075a484780b3d763fdf41596d8fc0970 (xen/granttable: Grant
tables V2 implementation) changed the GREFS_PER_GRANT_FRAME macro from
a constant to a conditional expression. The expression depends on
grant_table_version being appropriately set. Unfortunately, at init
time grant_table_version will be 0. The GREFS_PER_GRANT_FRAME
conditional expression checks for "grant_table_version == 1", and
therefore returns the number of grant references per frame for v2.
This causes gnttab_init() to allocate fewer pages for gnttab_list, as
a frame can old half the number of v2 entries than v1 entries. After
gnttab_resume() is called, grant_table_version is appropriately
set. nr_init_grefs will then be miscalculated and gnttab_free_count
will hold a value larger than the actual number of free gref entries.
If a guest is heavily utilizing improperly initialized v1 grant
tables, memory corruption can occur. One common manifestation is
corruption of the vmalloc list, resulting in a poisoned pointer
derefrence when accessing /proc/meminfo or /proc/vmallocinfo:

This patch introduces a static variable, grefs_per_grant_frame, to
cache the calculated value. gnttab_init() now calls
gnttab_request_version() early so that grant_table_version and
grefs_per_grant_frame can be appropriately set. A few BUG_ON()s have
been added to prevent this type of bug from reoccurring in the future.

commit 2fc136eecd0c647a6b13fcd00d0c41a1a28f35a5 upstream.
If the caller passes a valid kmap_op to m2p_add_override, we use
kmap_op->dev_bus_addr to store the original mfn, but dev_bus_addr is
part of the interface with Xen and if we are batching the hypercalls it
might not have been written by the hypervisor yet. That means that later
on Xen will write to it and we'll think that the original mfn is
actually what Xen has written to it.
Rather than "stealing" struct members from kmap_op, keep using
page->index to store the original mfn and add another parameter to
m2p_remove_override to get the corresponding kmap_op instead.
It is now responsibility of the caller to keep track of which kmap_op
corresponds to a particular page in the m2p_override (gntdev, the only
user of this interface that passes a valid kmap_op, is already doing that).

Add support for mappings without GNTMAP_contains_pte. This was not
supported because the unmap operation assumed that this flag was being
used; adding a parameter to the unmap operation to allow the PTE
clearing to be disabled is sufficient to make unmap capable of
supporting either mapping type.

Receiver-side copying of packets is based on this implementation, it gives
better performance and better CPU accounting. It totally supports three types:
full-page, sub-page and transitive grants.
However this patch does not cover sub-page and transitive grants, it mainly
focus on Full-page part and implements grant table V2 interfaces corresponding
to what already exists in grant table V1, such as: grant table V2
initialization, mapping, releasing and exported interfaces.
Each guest can only supports one type of grant table type, every entry in grant
table should be the same version. It is necessary to set V1 or V2 version before
initializing the grant table.
Grant table exported interfaces of V2 are same with those of V1, Xen is
responsible to judge what grant table version guests are using in every grant
operation.
V2 fulfills the same role of V1, and it is totally backwards compitable with V1.
If dom0 support grant table V2, the guests runing on it can run with either V1
or V2.

This patch introduces new structures of grant table V2, grant table V2 is an
extension from V1. Grant table is shared between guest and Xen, and Xen is
responsible to do corresponding work for grant operations, such as: figure
out guest's grant table version, perform different actions based on
different grant table version, etc. Although full-page structure of V2
is different from V1, it play the same role as V1.

If we want to use granted pages for AIO, changing the mappings of a user
vma and the corresponding p2m is not enough, we also need to update the
kernel mappings accordingly.
Currently this is only needed for pages that are created for user usages
through /dev/xen/gntdev. As in, pages that have been in use by the
kernel and use the P2M will not need this special mapping.
However there are no guarantees that in the future the kernel won't
start accessing pages through the 1:1 even for internal usage.
In order to avoid the complexity of dealing with highmem, we allocated
the pages lowmem.
We issue a HYPERVISOR_grant_table_op right away in
m2p_add_override and we remove the mappings using another
HYPERVISOR_grant_table_op in m2p_remove_override.
Considering that m2p_add_override and m2p_remove_override are called
once per page we use multicalls and hypercall batching.
Use the kmap_op pointer directly as argument to do the mapping as it is
guaranteed to be present up until the unmapping is done.
Before issuing any unmapping multicalls, we need to make sure that the
mapping has already being done, because we need the kmap->handle to be
set correctly.

We only supported the M2P (and P2M) override only for the
GNTMAP_contains_pte type mappings. Meaning that we grants
operations would "contain the machine address of the PTE to update"
If the flag is unset, then the grant operation is
"contains a host virtual address". The latter case means that
the Hypervisor takes care of updating our page table
(specifically the PTE entry) with the guest's MFN. As such we should
not try to do anything with the PTE. Previous to this patch
we would try to clear the PTE which resulted in Xen hypervisor
being upset with us:
(XEN) mm.c:1066:d0 Attempt to implicitly unmap a granted PTE c0100000ccc59067
(XEN) domain_crash called from mm.c:1067
(XEN) Domain 0 (vcpu#0) crashed on cpu#3:
(XEN) ----[ Xen-4.0-110228 x86_64 debug=y Not tainted ]----
and crashing us.
This patch allows us to inhibit the PTE clearing in the PV guest
if the GNTMAP_contains_pte is not set.
On the m2p_remove_override path we provide the same parameter.
Sadly in the grant-table driver we do not have a mechanism to
tell m2p_remove_override whether to clear the PTE or not. Since
the grant-table driver is used by user-space, we can safely assume
that it operates only on PTE's. Hence the implementation for
it to work on !GNTMAP_contains_pte returns -EOPNOTSUPP. In the future
we can implement the support for this. It will require some extra
accounting structure to keep track of the page[i], and the flag.
[v1: Added documentation details, made it return -EOPNOTSUPP instead
of trying to do a half-way implementation]

The caller will not undo a mapping which failed and therefore the
override will not be removed.
This is especially bad in the case of GNTMAP_contains_pte mapping type
mappings where m2p_add_override will destroy the kernel mapping of the
page.
This was observed via a failure of map_grant_pages in gntdev_mmap (due
to userspace using a bad grant reference), which left the page in
question unmapped (because it was a GNTMAP_contains_pte mapping) which
led to a crash later on.

HVM does not allow direct PTE modification, so instead we request
that Xen change its internal p2m mappings on the allocated pages and
map the memory into userspace normally.
Note:
The HVM path for map and unmap is slightly different: HVM keeps the pages
mapped until the area is deleted, while the PV case (use_ptemod being true)
must unmap them when userspace unmaps the range. In the normal use case,
this makes no difference to users since unmap time is deletion time.

When adding a page to m2p_override we change the p2m of the page so we
need to also clear the old pte of the kernel linear mapping because it
doesn't correspond anymore.
When we remove the page from m2p_override we restore the original p2m of
the page and we also restore the old pte of the kernel linear mapping.
Before changing the p2m mappings in m2p_add_override and
m2p_remove_override, check that the page passed as argument is valid and
return an error if it is not.

Add the xen pci platform device driver that is responsible
for initializing the grant table and xenbus in PV on HVM mode.
Few changes to xenbus and grant table are necessary to allow the delayed
initialization in HVM mode.
Grant table needs few additional modifications to work in HVM mode.
The Xen PCI platform device raises an irq every time an event has been
delivered to us. However these interrupts are only delivered to vcpu 0.
The Xen PCI platform interrupt handler calls xen_hvm_evtchn_do_upcall
that is a little wrapper around __xen_evtchn_do_upcall, the traditional
Xen upcall handler, the very same used with traditional PV guests.
When running on HVM the event channel upcall is never called while in
progress because it is a normal Linux irq handler (and we cannot switch
the irq chip wholesale to the Xen PV ones as we are running QEMU and
might have passed in PCI devices), therefore we cannot be sure that
evtchn_upcall_pending is 0 when returning.
For this reason if evtchn_upcall_pending is set by Xen we need to loop
again on the event channels set pending otherwise we might loose some
event channel deliveries.

implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

This patch implements Xen save/restore and migration.
Saving is triggered via xenbus, which is polled in
drivers/xen/manage.c. When a suspend request comes in, the kernel
prepares itself for saving by:
1 - Freeze all processes. This is primarily to prevent any
partially-completed pagetable updates from confusing the suspend
process. If CONFIG_PREEMPT isn't defined, then this isn't necessary.
2 - Suspend xenbus and other devices
3 - Stop_machine, to make sure all the other vcpus are quiescent. The
Xen tools require the domain to run its save off vcpu0.
4 - Within the stop_machine state, it pins any unpinned pgds (under
construction or destruction), performs canonicalizes various other
pieces of state (mostly converting mfns to pfns), and finally
5 - Suspend the domain
Restore reverses the steps used to save the domain, ending when all
the frozen processes are thawed.

Don't use alloc_vm_area()/free_vm_area() directly, instead define
xen_alloc_vm_area()/xen_free_vm_area() and use them.
alloc_vm_area()/free_vm_area() are used to allocate/free area which
are for grant table mapping. Xen/x86 grant table is based on virtual
address so that alloc_vm_area()/free_vm_area() are suitable.
On the other hand Xen/ia64 (and Xen/powerpc) grant table is based on
pseudo physical address (guest physical address) so that allocation
should be done differently.
The original version of xenified Linux/IA64 have its own
allocate_vm_area()/free_vm_area() definitions which don't allocate vm area
contradictory to those names.
Now vanilla Linux already has its definitions so that it's impossible
to have IA64 definitions of allocate_vm_area()/free_vm_area().
Instead introduce xen_allocate_vm_area()/xen_free_vm_area() and use them.

Add xen handles realted definitions for grant table which ia64/xen
needs.
Pointer argumsnts for ia64/xen hypercall are passed in pseudo physical
address (guest physical address) so that it is required to convert
guest kernel virtual address into pseudo physical address right before
issuing hypercall.
The xen guest handle represents such arguments.
Define necessary handles and helper functions.

fix memory corruption and crash due to mis-sized grant table.
A PV OS has two grant table data structures: the grant table itself
and a free list. The free list is composed of an array of pages,
which grow dynamically as the guest OS requires more grants. While
the grant table contains 8-byte entries, the free list contains 4-byte
entries. So we have half as many pages in the free list than in the
grant table.
There was a bug in the free list allocation code. The free list was
indexed as if it was the same size as the grant table. But it's only
half as large. So memory got corrupted, and I was seeing crashes in
the slab allocator later on.

Add Xen 'grant table' driver which allows granting of access to
selected local memory pages by other virtual machines and,
symmetrically, the mapping of remote memory pages which other virtual
machines have granted access to.
This driver is a prerequisite for many of the Xen virtual device
drivers, which grant the 'device driver domain' restricted and
temporary access to only those memory pages that are currently
involved in I/O operations.
