When changing the cpu affinity of an event it can happen today that
(with some unlucky timing) the same event will be handled on the old
and the new cpu at the same time.
Avoid that by adding an "event active" flag to the per-event data and
call the handler only if this flag isn't set.

An event channel should be kept masked when an eoi is pending for it.
When being migrated to another cpu it might be unmasked, though.
In order to avoid this keep three different flags for each event channel
to be able to distinguish "normal" masking/unmasking from eoi related
masking/unmasking and temporary masking. The event channel should only
be able to generate an interrupt if all flags are cleared.

When creating a new event channel with 2-level events the affinity
needs to be reset initially in order to avoid using an old affinity
from earlier usage of the event channel port. So when tearing an event
channel down reset all affinity bits.
The same applies to the affinity when onlining a vcpu: all old
affinity settings for this vcpu must be reset. As percpu events get
initialized before the percpu event channel hook is called,
resetting of the affinities happens after offlining a vcpu (this is
working, as initial percpu memory is zeroed out).

Pull xen fixes from Juergen Gross:
- A series to fix a regression when running as a fully virtualized
guest on an old Xen hypervisor not supporting PV interrupt callbacks
for HVM guests.
- A patch to add support to query Xen resource sizes (setting was
possible already) from user mode.
* tag 'for-linus-5.11-rc4-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/xen/tip:
x86/xen: Fix xen_hvm_smp_init() when vector callback not available
x86/xen: Don't register Xen IPIs when they aren't going to be used
x86/xen: Add xen_no_vector_callback option to test PCI INTX delivery
xen: Set platform PCI device INTX affinity to CPU0
xen: Fix event channel callback via INTX/GSI
xen/privcmd: allow fetching resource sizes
For a while, event channel notification via the PCI platform device
has been broken, because we attempt to communicate with xenstore before
we even have notifications working, with the xs_reset_watches() call
in xs_init().
We tend to get away with this on Xen versions below 4.0 because we avoid
calling xs_reset_watches() anyway, because xenstore might not cope with
reading a non-existent key. And newer Xen *does* have the vector
callback support, so we rarely fall back to INTX/GSI delivery.
To fix it, clean up a bit of the mess of xs_init() and xenbus_probe()
startup. Call xs_init() directly from xenbus_init() only in the !XS_HVM
case, deferring it to be called from xenbus_probe() in the XS_HVM case
instead.
Then fix up the invocation of xenbus_probe() to happen either from its
device_initcall if the callback is available early enough, or when the
callback is finally set up. This means that the hack of calling
xenbus_probe() from a workqueue after the first interrupt, or directly
from the PCI platform device setup, is no longer needed.

All event channel setups bind the interrupt on CPU0 or the target CPU for
percpu interrupts and overwrite the affinity mask with the corresponding
cpumask. That does not make sense.
The XEN implementation of irqchip::irq_set_affinity() already picks a
single target CPU out of the affinity mask and the actual target is stored
in the effective CPU mask, so destroying the user chosen affinity mask
which might contain more than one CPU is wrong.
Change the implementation so that the channel is bound to CPU0 at the XEN
level and leave the affinity mask alone. At startup of the interrupt
affinity will be assigned out of the affinity mask and the XEN binding will
be updated. Only keep the enforcement for real percpu interrupts.
On resume the overwrite is not required either because info->cpu and the
affinity mask are still the same as at the time of suspend. Same for
rebind_evtchn_irq().
This also prepares for proper interrupt spreading.

There is absolutely no reason to mimic the x86 deferred affinity
setting. This mechanism is required to handle the hardware induced issues
of IO/APIC and MSI and is not in use when the interrupts are remapped.
XEN does not need this and can simply change the affinity from the calling
context. The core code invokes this with the interrupt descriptor lock held
so it is fully serialized against any other operation.
Mark the interrupts with IRQ_MOVE_PCNTXT to disable the deferred affinity
setting. The conditional mask/unmask operation is already handled in
xen_rebind_evtchn_to_cpu().
This makes XEN on x86 use the same mechanics as on e.g. ARM64 where
deferred affinity setting is not required and not implemented and the code
path in the ack functions is compiled out.

This function can only ever work when the event channels:
- are already established
- interrupts assigned to them
- the affinity has been set by user space already
because any newly set up event channel is forced to be bound to CPU0 and
the affinity mask of the interrupt is forced to contain cpumask_of(0).
As the CPU0 enforcement was in place _before_ this was implemented it's
entirely unclear how that can ever have worked at all.
Remove it as preparation for doing it proper.

In order to avoid high dom0 load due to rogue guests sending events at
high frequency, block those events in case there was no action needed
in dom0 to handle the events.
This is done by adding a per-event counter, which set to zero in case
an EOI without the XEN_EOI_FLAG_SPURIOUS is received from a backend
driver, and incremented when this flag has been set. In case the
counter is 2 or higher delay the EOI by 1 << (cnt - 2) jiffies, but
not more than 1 second.
In order not to waste memory shorten the per-event refcnt to two bytes
(it should normally never exceed a value of 2). Add an overflow check
to evtchn_get() to make sure the 2 bytes really won't overflow.

In case rogue guests are sending events at high frequency it might
happen that xen_evtchn_do_upcall() won't stop processing events in
dom0. As this is done in irq handling a crash might be the result.
In order to avoid that, delay further inter-domain events after some
time in xen_evtchn_do_upcall() by forcing eoi processing into a
worker on the same cpu, thus inhibiting new events coming in.
The time after which eoi processing is to be delayed is configurable
via a new module parameter "event_loop_timeout" which specifies the
maximum event loop time in jiffies (default: 2, the value was chosen
after some tests showing that a value of 2 was the lowest with an
only slight drop of dom0 network throughput while multiple guests
performed an event storm).
How long eoi processing will be delayed can be specified via another
parameter "event_eoi_delay" (again in jiffies, default 10, again the
value was chosen after testing with different delay values).

In order to avoid tight event channel related IRQ loops add a new

to will be masked until the event has been handled and the related
driver is capable to handle another event. The driver is responsible
for unmasking the event channel via the new function xen_irq_lateeoi().
This is similar to binding an event channel to a threaded IRQ, but
without having to structure the driver accordingly.
In order to support a future special handling in case a rogue guest
is sending lots of unsolicited events, add a flag to xen_irq_lateeoi()

race resulting in crashes or WARN() splats when trying to access the
irq_info structure related to the event channel.
Fix this problem by using a rwlock taken as reader in the event
handling loop and as writer when deallocating the irq_info structure.
As the observed problem was a NULL dereference in evtchn_from_irq()
make this function more robust against races by testing the irq_info
pointer to be not NULL before dereferencing it.
And finally make all accesses to evtchn_to_irq[row][col] atomic ones
in order to avoid seeing partial updates of an array element in irq
handling. Note that irq handling can be entered only for event channels
which have been valid before, so any not populated row isn't a problem
in this regard, as rows are only ever added and never removed.

Commit 910f8befdf ("xen/pirq: fix error path cleanup when binding
MSIs") fixed a couple of errors in error cleanup path of
xen_bind_pirq_msi_to_irq(). This cleanup allowed a call to
__unbind_from_irq() with an unbound irq, which would result in
triggering the BUG_ON there.
Since there is really no reason for the BUG_ON (xen_free_irq() can
operate on unbound irqs) we can remove it.

Current cleanup in the error path of xen_bind_pirq_msi_to_irq is
wrong. First of all there's an off-by-one in the cleanup loop, which
can lead to unbinding wrong IRQs.
Secondly IRQs not bound won't be freed, thus leaking IRQ numbers.
Note that there's no need to differentiate between bound and unbound
IRQs when freeing them, __unbind_from_irq will deal with both of them
correctly.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

This is because get_cpu() in xen_evtchn_fifo_init() will disable
preemption, but __get_free_page() might sleep (GFP_ATOMIC is not set).
xen_evtchn_fifo_init() will always be called before SMP is initialized,
so {get,put}_cpu() could be replaced by a simple smp_processor_id().
This also avoid to modify evtchn_fifo_alloc_control_block that will be
called in other context.

Here is a device has xen-pirq-MSI interrupt. Dom0 might lost interrupt
during driver irq_disable/irq_enable. Here is the scenario,
1. irq_disable -> disable_dynirq -> mask_evtchn(irq channel)
2. dev interrupt raised by HW and Xen mark its evtchn as pending
3. irq_enable -> startup_pirq -> eoi_pirq ->
clear_evtchn(channel of irq) -> clear pending status
4. consume_one_event process the irq event without pending bit assert
which result in interrupt lost once
5. No HW interrupt raising anymore.
Now use enable_dynirq for enable_pirq of xen_pirq_chip to remove
eoi_pirq when irq_enable.

A HVM domian booting generates around 200K (evtchn:qemu-dm xen-dyn)
interrupts,in a short period of time. All these evtchn:qemu-dm are bound
to VCPU 0, until irqbalance sees these IRQ and moves it to a different VCPU.
In one configuration, irqbalance runs every 10 seconds, which means
irqbalance doesn't get to see these burst of interrupts and doesn't
re-balance interrupts most of the time, making all evtchn:qemu-dm to be
processed by VCPU0. This cause VCPU0 to spend most of time processing
hardirq and very little time on softirq. Moreover, if dom0 kernel PREEMPTION
is disabled, VCPU0 never runs watchdog (process context), triggering a
softlockup detection code to panic.
Binding evtchn:qemu-dm to next online VCPU, will spread hardirq
processing evenly across different CPU. Later, irqbalance will try to balance
evtchn:qemu-dm, if required.
