From bee980d9e9642e96351fa3ca9077b853ecf62f57 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Keir Fraser Date: Thu, 28 Mar 2013 10:03:36 -0400 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] xen/events: Handle VIRQ_TIMER before any other hardirq in event loop. This avoids any other hardirq handler seeing a very stale jiffies value immediately after wakeup from a long idle period. The one observable symptom of this was a USB keyboard, with software keyboard repeat, which would always repeat a key immediately that it was pressed. This is due to the key press waking the guest, the key handler immediately runs, sees an old jiffies value, and then that jiffies value significantly updated, before the key is unpressed.

Right before try to clear the page, we make a hypercall to change it from _RO to _RW and that works (otherwise we would hit an BUG()). And the _RW flag is set for that page: (XEN) L1[0x1c7] = 001000004885f067 0000000000004dc7 The error code is 3, so PFEC_page_present and PFEC_write_access, so page is present (correct), and we tried to write to the page, but a violation occurred. The one theory is that the the page entries in hardware (which are cached) are not up to date with what we just set. Especially as we have just done an CR3 write and flushed the multicalls. This patch does solve the problem by flusing out the TLB page entry after changing it from _RO to _RW and we don't hit this issue anymore.
