* KVM: PPC: Name generic 64-bit code genericAlexander Graf2010-05-179-9/+7
| | | | | | | | | We have quite some code that can be used by Book3S_32 and Book3S_64 alike, so let's call it "Book3S" instead of "Book3S_64", so we can later on use it from the 32 bit port too. Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
* KVM: MMU: cleanup for function unaccount_shadowed()Wei Yongjun2010-05-171-1/+1

* KVM: do not call hardware_disable() on CPU_UP_CANCELEDLai Jiangshan2010-05-171-5/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | When CPU_UP_CANCELED, hardware_enable() has not been called at the CPU which is going up because raw_notifier_call_chain(CPU_ONLINE) has not been called for this cpu.

* KVM: MMU: Drop cr4.pge from shadow page roleAvi Kivity2010-05-173-4/+1
| | | | | | | | | | Since commit bf47a760f66ad, we no longer handle ptes with the global bit set specially, so there is no reason to distinguish between shadow pages created with cr4.gpe set and clear. Such tracking is expensive when the guest toggles cr4.pge, so drop it. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
* KVM: use the correct RCU API for PROVE_RCU=yLai Jiangshan2010-05-179-15/+33

This patch allows the user to accomplish the same thing without specifying the separate record/report steps or the pipe. So the same command as above can be accomplished more simply as: $ perf trace rwtop 5 Notice that the '-i -' and '-o -' aren't required in this case - they're added internally, and that any extra arguments are passed along to the report script (but not to the record script). The overall effect is that any of the scripts listed in 'perf trace -l' can now be used directly in live mode, with the expected arguments, by simply specifying the script and args to 'perf trace'.

For each, the output of the perf event stream is fed continuously to the script, which continuously aggregates the data and reports the current results every 3 seconds, or at the optionally specified interval. After the current results are displayed, the aggregations are cleared and the cycle begins anew. To run the scripts, simply pipe the output of the 'perf trace record' step as input to the corresponding 'perf trace report' step, using '-' as the filename to -o and -i: $ perf trace record sctop -o - | perf trace report sctop -i - Also adds clear_term() utility functions to the Util.pm and Util.py utility modules, for use by any script to clear the screen.

The result is that when the event triggered in the kernel but we have exclude_kernel set, we try to rewind using task_pt_regs. There are two side effects of this: - we call task_pt_regs even on kernel threads, which doesn't give us the desired result. - if the event occured in the kernel, we shouldn't rewind to the user context. We want to actually ignore the event. get_irq_regs() will always give us the right interrupted context, so use its result and submit it to perf_exclude_context() that knows when an event must be ignored.

We also need to check a matching perf event is actually counting. This walk is wasteful and makes the event fast path scaling down with a growing number of events running on the same contexts. To solve this, we store the running perf events in a hashlist to get an immediate access to them against their type:event_id when they trigger. v2: - Fix SWEVENT_HLIST_SIZE definition (and re-learn some basic maths along the way) - Only allocate hlist for online cpus, but keep track of the refcount on offline possible cpus too, so that we allocate it if needed when it becomes online. - Drop the kref use as it's not adapted to our tricks anymore. v3: - Fix bad refcount check (address instead of value). Thanks to Eric Dumazet who spotted this. - While exiting cpu, move the hlist release out of the IPI path to lock the hlist mutex sanely.
