When invalidating a translation block, set an invalid flag into the
TranslationBlock structure first. It is also necessary to check whether
the target TB is still valid after acquiring 'tb_lock' but before calling
tb_add_jump() since TB lookup is to be performed out of 'tb_lock' in
future. Note that we don't have to check 'last_tb'; an already invalidated
TB will not be executed anyway and it is thus safe to patch it.
Backports commit 6d21e4208f382dd8ca1f7995a6dd9ea7ca281163 from qemu
With a vfio assigned device we lay down a base MemoryRegion registered
as an IO region, giving us read & write accessors. If the region
supports mmap, we lay down a higher priority sub-region MemoryRegion
on top of the base layer initialized as a RAM device pointer to the
mmap. Finally, if we have any quirks for the device (ie. address
ranges that need additional virtualization support), we put another IO
sub-region on top of the mmap MemoryRegion. When this is flattened,
we now potentially have sub-page mmap MemoryRegions exposed which
cannot be directly mapped through KVM.
This is as expected, but a subtle detail of this is that we end up
with two different access mechanisms through QEMU. If we disable the
mmap MemoryRegion, we make use of the IO MemoryRegion and service
accesses using pread and pwrite to the vfio device file descriptor.
If the mmap MemoryRegion is enabled and results in one of these
sub-page gaps, QEMU handles the access as RAM, using memcpy to the
mmap. Using either pread/pwrite or the mmap directly should be
correct, but using memcpy causes us problems. I expect that not only
does memcpy not necessarily honor the original width and alignment in
performing a copy, but it potentially also uses processor instructions
not intended for MMIO spaces. It turns out that this has been a
problem for Realtek NIC assignment, which has such a quirk that
creates a sub-page mmap MemoryRegion access.
To resolve this, we disable memory_access_is_direct() for ram_device
regions since QEMU assumes that it can use memcpy for those regions.
Instead we access through MemoryRegionOps, which replaces the memcpy
with simple de-references of standard sizes to the host memory.
With this patch we attempt to provide unrestricted access to the RAM
device, allowing byte through qword access as well as unaligned
access. The assumption here is that accesses initiated by the VM are
driven by a device specific driver, which knows the device
capabilities. If unaligned accesses are not supported by the device,
we don't want them to work in a VM by performing multiple aligned
accesses to compose the unaligned access. A down-side of this
philosophy is that the xp command from the monitor attempts to use
the largest available access weidth, unaware of the underlying
device. Using memcpy had this same restriction, but at least now an
operator can dump individual registers, even if blocks of device
memory may result in access widths beyond the capabilities of a
given device (RTL NICs only support up to dword).
Backports commit 1b16ded6a512809f99c133a97f19026fe612b2de from qemu
Setting skip_dump on a MemoryRegion allows us to modify one specific
code path, but the restriction we're trying to address encompasses
more than that. If we have a RAM MemoryRegion backed by a physical
device, it not only restricts our ability to dump that region, but
also affects how we should manipulate it. Here we recognize that
MemoryRegions do not change to sometimes allow dumps and other times
not, so we replace setting the skip_dump flag with a new initializer
so that we know exactly the type of region to which we're applying
this behavior.

Every IOMMU has some granularity which MemoryRegionIOMMUOps::translate
uses when translating, however this information is not available outside
the translate context for various checks.
This adds a get_min_page_size callback to MemoryRegionIOMMUOps and
a wrapper for it so IOMMU users (such as VFIO) can know the minimum
actual page size supported by an IOMMU.
As IOMMU MR represents a guest IOMMU, this uses TARGET_PAGE_SIZE
as fallback.
This removes vfio_container_granularity() and uses new helper in
memory_region_iommu_replay() when replaying IOMMU mappings on added
IOMMU memory region.

For some workloads such as arm bootup, tb_phys_hash is performance-critical.
The is due to the high frequency of accesses to the hash table, originated
by (frequent) TLB flushes that wipe out the cpu-private tb_jmp_cache's.
More info:
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-03/msg05098.html
To dig further into this I modified an arm image booting debian jessie to
immediately shut down after boot. Analysis revealed that quite a bit of time
is unnecessarily spent in tb_phys_hash: the cause is poor hashing that
results in very uneven loading of chains in the hash table's buckets;
the longest observed chain had ~550 elements.
The appended addresses this with two changes:
1) Use xxhash as the hash table's hash function. xxhash is a fast,
high-quality hashing function.
2) Feed the hashing function with not just tb_phys, but also pc and flags.
This improves performance over using just tb_phys for hashing, since that
resulted in some hash buckets having many TB's, while others getting very few;
with these changes, the longest observed chain on a single hash bucket is
brought down from ~550 to ~40.
Tests show that the other element checked for in tb_find_physical,
cs_base, is always a match when tb_phys+pc+flags are a match,
so hashing cs_base is wasteful. It could be that this is an ARM-only
thing, though. UPDATE:
On Tue, Apr 05, 2016 at 08:41:43 -0700, Richard Henderson wrote:

BTW, after this change the hash table should not be called "tb_hash_phys"
anymore; this is addressed later in this series.
This change gives consistent bootup time improvements. I tested two
host machines:
- Intel Xeon E5-2690: 11.6% less time
- Intel i7-4790K: 19.2% less time
Increasing the number of hash buckets yields further improvements. However,
using a larger, fixed number of buckets can degrade performance for other
workloads that do not translate as many blocks (600K+ for debian-jessie arm
bootup). This is dealt with later in this series.

pio_addr_t is almost unused, because these days I/O ports are simply

the only user of those functions.
On the other hand even portio_* functions use this type; the only
interesting use of pio_addr_t thus is include/hw/sysbus.h. I guess I
could move it there, but I don't see much benefit in that either. Using
uint32_t is enough and avoids the need to include ioport.h everywhere.

Backports commit a7d6039cb35592683ecc56d2b37817da2d2f8b00 from qemu
'tb_invalidated_flag' was meant to catch two events:
* some TB has been invalidated by tb_phys_invalidate();
* the whole translation buffer has been flushed by tb_flush().
Then it was checked:
* in cpu_exec() to ensure that the last executed TB can be safely
linked to directly call the next one;
* in cpu_exec_nocache() to decide if the original TB should be provided
for further possible invalidation along with the temporarily
generated TB.
It is always safe to patch an invalidated TB since it is not going to be
used anyway. It is also safe to call tb_phys_invalidate() for an already
invalidated TB. Thus, setting this flag in tb_phys_invalidate() is
simply unnecessary. Moreover, it can prevent from pretty proper linking
of TBs, if any arbitrary TB has been invalidated. So just don't touch it
in tb_phys_invalidate().
If this flag is only used to catch whether tb_flush() has been called
then rename it to 'tb_flushed'. Declare it as 'bool' and stick to using
only 'true' and 'false' to set its value. Also, instead of setting it in
tb_gen_code(), just after tb_flush() has been called, do it right inside
of tb_flush().
In cpu_exec(), this flag is used to track if tb_flush() has been called
and have made 'next_tb' (a reference to the last executed TB) invalid
for linking it to directly call the next TB. tb_flush() can be called
during the CPU execution loop from tb_gen_code(), during TB execution or
by another thread while 'tb_lock' is released. Catch for translation
buffer flush reliably by resetting this flag once before first TB lookup
and each time we find it set before trying to add a direct jump. Don't
touch in in tb_find_physical().
Each vCPU has its own execution loop in multithreaded mode and thus
should have its own copy of the flag to be able to reset it with its own
'next_tb' and don't affect any other vCPU execution thread. So make this
flag per-vCPU and move it to CPUState.
In cpu_exec_nocache(), we only need to check if tb_flush() has been
called from tb_gen_code() called by cpu_exec_nocache() itself. To do
this reliably, preserve the old value of the flag, reset it before
calling tb_gen_code(), check afterwards, and combine the saved value
back to the flag.
This patch is based on the patch "tcg: move tb_invalidated_flag to
CPUState" from Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>.

Backports commit d7898cda81b6efa6b2d7a749882695cdcf280eaa from qemu
Allow multiple calls to cpu_address_space_init(); each
call adds an entry to the cpu->ases array at the specified
index. It is up to the target-specific CPU code to actually use
these extra address spaces.
Since this multiple AddressSpace support won't work with
KVM, add an assertion to avoid confusing failures.
Backports commit 12ebc9a76dd7702aef0a3618717a826c19c34ef4 from qemu
Rather than setting cpu->as unconditionally in cpu_exec_init
(and then having target-i386 override this later), don't set
it until the first call to cpu_address_space_init.
This requires us to initialise the address space for
both TCG and KVM (KVM doesn't need the AS listener but
it does require cpu->as to be set).
For target CPUs which don't set up any address spaces (currently
everything except i386), add the default address_space_memory
in qemu_init_vcpu().

memcpy can take a large amount of time for small reads and writes.
Handle the common case of reading s/g descriptors from memory (there
is no corresponding "write" case that is as common, because writes
often use address_space_st* functions) by inlining the relevant
parts of address_space_read into the caller.
Backports commit 3cc8f884996584630734a90c9b3c535af81e3c92 from qemu
We want to inline the case where there is only one iteration, because
then the compiler can also inline the memcpy. As a start, extract
everything after the first address_space_translate call.

For the common case of DMA into non-hotplugged RAM, it is unnecessary
but expensive to do object_ref/unref. Add back an owner field to
MemoryRegion, so that these memory regions can skip the reference
counting.

Replace qemu_ram_free_from_ptr() with qemu_ram_free().
The only difference between qemu_ram_free_from_ptr() and
qemu_ram_free() is that g_free_rcu() is used instead of
call_rcu(reclaim_ramblock). We can safely replace it because:
* RAM blocks allocated by qemu_ram_alloc_from_ptr() always have
RAM_PREALLOC set;
* reclaim_ramblock(block) will do nothing except g_free(block)
if RAM_PREALLOC is set at block->flags.
Backports commit a29ac16632aec6065c72985b9f7eeb1ca6fbef4a from qemu
Add a function to find a RAMBlock by name; use it in two
of the places that already open code that loop; we've
got another use later in postcopy.
Backports commit e3dd74934f2d2c8c67083995928ff68e8c1d0030 from qemu
Postcopy sends RAMBlock names and offsets over the wire (since it can't
rely on the order of ramaddr being the same), and it starts out with
HVA fault addresses from the kernel.
qemu_ram_block_from_host translates a HVA into a RAMBlock, an offset
in the RAMBlock and the global ram_addr_t value.
Rewrite qemu_ram_addr_from_host to use qemu_ram_block_from_host.
Provide qemu_ram_get_idstr since its the actual name text sent on the
wire.

At present, the "average" guestimate of TB size is way too small, leading
to many unused entries in the pre-allocated TB array. For a guest with 1GB
ram, we're currently allocating 256MB for the array.
Survey arm, alpha, aarch64, ppc, sparc, i686, x86_64 guests running on
x86_64 and ppc64 hosts and select a new average. The size of the array
drops to 81MB with no more flushing than before.
Backports commit 126d89e8cdfa3be15d51f76906eaccbcd0023f98 from qemu
We currently pre-compute an worst case code size for any TB, which
works out to be 122kB. Since the average TB size is near 1kB, this
wastes quite a lot of storage.
Instead, check for overflow in between generating code for each opcode.
The overhead of the check isn't measurable and wastage is minimized.

This patch introduces several helpers to pass return address
which points to the TB. Correct return address allows correct
restoring of the guest PC and icount. These functions should be used when
helpers embedded into TB invoke memory operations.

This is set to true when the index is for an instruction fetch
translation.
The core get_page_addr_code() sets it, as do the SOFTMMU_CODE_ACCESS
acessors.
All targets ignore it for now, and all other callers pass "false".
This will allow targets who wish to split the mmu index between
instruction and data accesses to do so. A subsequent patch will
do just that for PowerPC.

Guest CPU TLB maintenance operations may be sufficiently
specialized to only need to flush TLB entries corresponding

this, to avoid the inefficiency of flushing TLB entries
which we don't need to.

The callers (most of them in target-foo/cpu.c) to this function all

All of the core-code usages of this API have the cpu pointer handy so
pass it in. There are only 3 architecture specific usages (2 of which
are commented out) which can just use ENV_GET_CPU() locally to get the
cpu pointer. The reduces core code usage of the CPU env, which brings
us closer to common-obj'ing these core files.
Backports commit bbd77c180d7ff1b04a7661bb878939b2e1d23798 from qemu
Currently the "host" page size alignment API is really aligning to both
host and target page sizes. There is the qemu_real_page_size which can
be used for the actual host page size but it's missing a mask and ALIGN
macro as provided for qemu_page_size. Complete the API. This allows
system level code that cares about the host page size to use a
consistent alignment interface without having to un-needingly align to
the target page size. This also reduces system level code dependency
on the cpu specific TARGET_PAGE_SIZE.

Including qemu-common.h from other header files is generally a bad
idea, because it means it's very easy to end up with a circular
dependency. For instance, if we wanted to include memory.h from
qom/cpu.h we'd end up with this loop:
memory.h -> qemu-common.h -> cpu.h -> cpu-qom.h -> qom/cpu.h -> memory.h
Remove the include from memory.h. This requires us to fix up a few
other files which were inadvertently getting declarations indirectly
through memory.h.
The biggest change is splitting the fprintf_function typedef out
into its own header so other headers can get at it without having
to include qemu-common.h.

This introduces the memory region property "global_locking". It is true

This is one of very few things in exec-all with a genuine CPU
architecture dependency. Move these hashing helpers to a new
header to trim exec-all.h down to a near architecture-agnostic
header.
The defs are only used by cpu-exec and translate-all which are both
arch-obj's so the new tb-hash.h has no core code usage.
