File 5aec7393-1-x86-xpti-avoid-copy.patch of Package xen.8005
From: Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com> Subject: x86/xpti: avoid copying L4 page table contents when possible For mitigation of Meltdown the current L4 page table is copied to the cpu local root page table each time a 64 bit pv guest is entered. Copying can be avoided in cases where the guest L4 page table hasn't been modified while running the hypervisor, e.g. when handling interrupts or any hypercall not modifying the L4 page table or %cr3. So add a per-cpu flag indicating whether the copying should be performed and set that flag only when loading a new %cr3 or modifying the L4 page table. This includes synchronization of the cpu local root page table with other cpus, so add a special synchronization flag for that case. A simple performance check (compiling the hypervisor via "make -j 4") in dom0 with 4 vcpus shows a significant improvement: - real time drops from 112 seconds to 103 seconds - system time drops from 142 seconds to 131 seconds Signed-off-by: Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com> Reviewed-by: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@suse.com> --- a/xen/arch/x86/flushtlb.c +++ b/xen/arch/x86/flushtlb.c @@ -9,6 +9,7 @@ #include <xen/config.h> #include <xen/sched.h> +#include <xen/smp.h> #include <xen/softirq.h> #include <asm/flushtlb.h> #include <asm/page.h> @@ -167,4 +168,7 @@ void flush_area_local(const void *va, un } local_irq_restore(irqfl); + + if ( flags & FLUSH_ROOT_PGTBL ) + get_cpu_info()->root_pgt_changed = 1; } --- a/xen/arch/x86/mm.c +++ b/xen/arch/x86/mm.c @@ -498,6 +498,7 @@ void make_cr3(struct vcpu *v, unsigned l void write_ptbase(struct vcpu *v) { + get_cpu_info()->root_pgt_changed = 1; write_cr3(v->arch.cr3); } @@ -3821,18 +3822,27 @@ long do_mmu_update( case PGT_l4_page_table: rc = mod_l4_entry(va, l4e_from_intpte(req.val), mfn, cmd == MMU_PT_UPDATE_PRESERVE_AD, v); - /* - * No need to sync if all uses of the page can be accounted - * to the page lock we hold, its pinned status, and uses on - * this (v)CPU. - */ - if ( !rc && this_cpu(root_pgt) && - ((page->u.inuse.type_info & PGT_count_mask) > - (1 + !!(page->u.inuse.type_info & PGT_pinned) + - (pagetable_get_pfn(curr->arch.guest_table) == mfn) + - (pagetable_get_pfn(curr->arch.guest_table_user) == - mfn))) ) - sync_guest = 1; + if ( !rc && this_cpu(root_pgt) ) + { + bool_t local_in_use = 0; + + if ( pagetable_get_pfn(curr->arch.guest_table) == mfn ) + { + local_in_use = 1; + get_cpu_info()->root_pgt_changed = 1; + } + + /* + * No need to sync if all uses of the page can be + * accounted to the page lock we hold, its pinned + * status, and uses on this (v)CPU. + */ + if ( (page->u.inuse.type_info & PGT_count_mask) > + (1 + !!(page->u.inuse.type_info & PGT_pinned) + + (pagetable_get_pfn(curr->arch.guest_table_user) == + mfn) + local_in_use) ) + sync_guest = 1; + } break; case PGT_writable_page: perfc_incr(writable_mmu_updates); @@ -3936,7 +3946,8 @@ long do_mmu_update( * Force other vCPU-s of the affected guest to pick up L4 entry * changes (if any). */ - flush_mask(pt_owner->domain_dirty_cpumask, FLUSH_TLB_GLOBAL); + flush_mask(pt_owner->domain_dirty_cpumask, + FLUSH_TLB_GLOBAL | FLUSH_ROOT_PGTBL); } perfc_add(num_page_updates, i); --- a/xen/arch/x86/mm/shadow/multi.c +++ b/xen/arch/x86/mm/shadow/multi.c @@ -938,6 +938,8 @@ static int shadow_set_l4e(struct vcpu *v /* Write the new entry */ shadow_write_entries(sl4e, &new_sl4e, 1, sl4mfn); + flush_root_pgtbl_domain(v->domain); + flags |= SHADOW_SET_CHANGED; if ( shadow_l4e_get_flags(old_sl4e) & _PAGE_PRESENT ) --- a/xen/arch/x86/smp.c +++ b/xen/arch/x86/smp.c @@ -223,7 +223,7 @@ void invalidate_interrupt(struct cpu_use ack_APIC_irq(); perfc_incr(ipis); if ( !__sync_local_execstate() || - (flush_flags & (FLUSH_TLB_GLOBAL | FLUSH_CACHE)) ) + (flush_flags & (FLUSH_TLB_GLOBAL | FLUSH_CACHE | FLUSH_ROOT_PGTBL)) ) flush_area_local(flush_va, flush_flags); cpumask_clear_cpu(smp_processor_id(), &flush_cpumask); } --- a/xen/arch/x86/x86_64/asm-offsets.c +++ b/xen/arch/x86/x86_64/asm-offsets.c @@ -141,6 +141,7 @@ void __dummy__(void) OFFSET(CPUINFO_use_shadow_spec_ctrl, struct cpu_info, use_shadow_spec_ctrl); OFFSET(CPUINFO_xen_spec_ctrl, struct cpu_info, xen_spec_ctrl); OFFSET(CPUINFO_xen_rsb, struct cpu_info, xen_rsb); + OFFSET(CPUINFO_root_pgt_changed, struct cpu_info, root_pgt_changed); DEFINE(CPUINFO_sizeof, sizeof(struct cpu_info)); BLANK(); --- a/xen/arch/x86/x86_64/entry.S +++ b/xen/arch/x86/x86_64/entry.S @@ -45,11 +45,15 @@ restore_all_guest: mov %cr3, %r9 GET_STACK_BASE(%rdx) mov STACK_CPUINFO_FIELD(pv_cr3)(%rdx), %rdi + test %rdi, %rdi + jz .Lrag_keep_cr3 + mov %rdi, %rax + cmpb $0, STACK_CPUINFO_FIELD(root_pgt_changed)(%rdx) + je .Lrag_copy_done + movb $0, STACK_CPUINFO_FIELD(root_pgt_changed)(%rdx) movabs $PADDR_MASK & PAGE_MASK, %rsi movabs $DIRECTMAP_VIRT_START, %rcx - mov %rdi, %rax and %rsi, %rdi - jz .Lrag_keep_cr3 and %r9, %rsi add %rcx, %rdi add %rcx, %rsi @@ -64,6 +68,7 @@ restore_all_guest: sub $(ROOT_PAGETABLE_FIRST_XEN_SLOT - \ ROOT_PAGETABLE_LAST_XEN_SLOT - 1) * 8, %rdi rep movsq +.Lrag_copy_done: mov %r9, STACK_CPUINFO_FIELD(xen_cr3)(%rdx) write_cr3 rax, rdi, rsi .Lrag_keep_cr3: --- a/xen/arch/x86/x86_64/traps.c +++ b/xen/arch/x86/x86_64/traps.c @@ -285,6 +285,8 @@ void toggle_guest_pt(struct vcpu *v) v->arch.flags ^= TF_kernel_mode; update_cr3(v); + get_cpu_info()->root_pgt_changed = 1; + #ifdef USER_MAPPINGS_ARE_GLOBAL /* Don't flush user global mappings from the TLB.
