From e17b2f114cba5420fb28fa4bfead57d406a16533 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ian Campbell Date: Mon, 20 Jan 2014 11:30:41 +0000 Subject: xen: swiotlb: handle sizeof(dma_addr_t) != sizeof(phys_addr_t) The use of phys_to_machine and machine_to_phys in the phys<=>bus conversions causes us to lose the top bits of the DMA address if the size of a DMA address is not the same as the size of the phyiscal address. This can happen in practice on ARM where foreign pages can be above 4GB even though the local kernel does not have LPAE page tables enabled (which is totally reasonable if the guest does not itself have >4GB of RAM). In this case the kernel still maps the foreign pages at a phys addr below 4G (as it must) but the resulting DMA address (returned by the grant map operation) is much higher. This is analogous to a hardware device which has its view of RAM mapped up high for some reason. This patch makes I/O to foreign pages (specifically blkif) work on 32-bit ARM systems with more than 4GB of RAM.

Therefore this series does the following: - the original functions were renamed to __gnttab_[un]map_refs, with a new parameter m2p_override - based on m2p_override either they follow the original behaviour, or just set the private flag and call set_phys_to_machine - gnttab_[un]map_refs are now a wrapper to call __gnttab_[un]map_refs with m2p_override false - a new function gnttab_[un]map_refs_userspace provides the old behaviour It also removes a stray space from page.h and change ret to 0 if XENFEAT_auto_translated_physmap, as that is the only possible return value there. v2: - move the storing of the old mfn in page->index to gnttab_map_refs - move the function header update to a separate patch v3: - a new approach to retain old behaviour where it needed - squash the patches into one v4: - move out the common bits from m2p* functions, and pass pfn/mfn as parameter - clear page->private before doing anything with the page, so m2p_find_override won't race with this v5: - change return value handling in __gnttab_[un]map_refs - remove a stray space in page.h - add detail why ret = 0 now at some places v6: - don't pass pfn to m2p* functions, just get it locally Signed-off-by: Zoltan Kiss Suggested-by: David Vrabel Acked-by: David Vrabel Acked-by: Stefano Stabellini Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk --- arch/x86/include/asm/xen/page.h | 5 ++- arch/x86/xen/p2m.c | 17 +------ drivers/block/xen-blkback/blkback.c | 15 +++---- drivers/xen/gntdev.c | 13 +++--- drivers/xen/grant-table.c | 89 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------ include/xen/grant_table.h | 8 +++- 6 files changed, 101 insertions(+), 46 deletions(-) (limited to 'drivers/xen') diff --git a/arch/x86/include/asm/xen/page.h b/arch/x86/include/asm/xen/page.h index 3e276eb23d1b..787e1bb5aafc 100644 --- a/arch/x86/include/asm/xen/page.h +++ b/arch/x86/include/asm/xen/page.h @@ -52,7 +52,8 @@ extern unsigned long set_phys_range_identity(unsigned long pfn_s, extern int m2p_add_override(unsigned long mfn, struct page *page, struct gnttab_map_grant_ref *kmap_op);

Eg. this bug reported by James: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/11/21/158 There are two mainly reasons: 1) The original goal_page didn't consider some pages used by kernel space, like slab pages and pages used by device drivers. 2) The balloon driver may not give back memory to guest OS fast enough when the workload suddenly aquries a lot of physical memory. In both cases, the guest OS will suffer from memory pressure and OOM may be triggered. The fix is make xen-selfballoon driver not that aggressive by adding extra 10% of total ram pages to goal_page. It's more valuable to keep the guest system reliable and response faster than balloon out these 10% pages to XEN.
