Device models often have to perform multiple access to a single
memory region that is known in advance, but would to use "DMA-style"
functions instead of address_space_map/unmap. This can happen
for example when the data has to undergo endianness conversion.
Introduce a new data structure to cache the result of
address_space_translate without forcing usage of a host address
like address_space_map does.

In the user emulation code path, tlb_vaddr_to_host erronesously passed

softmmu requires more functions to be thread-safe, because translation
blocks can be invalidated from e.g. notdirty callbacks. Probably the
same holds for user-mode emulation, it's just that no one has ever
tried to produce a coherent locking there.
This patch will guide the introduction of more tb_lock and tb_unlock
calls for system emulation.
Note that after this patch some (most) of the mentioned functions are
still called outside tb_lock/tb_unlock. The next one will rectify this.
Backports commit 7d7500d99895f888f97397ef32bb536bb0df3b74 from qemu
This adds asserts to check the locking on the various translation
engines structures. There are two sets of structures that are protected
by locks.
The first the l1map and PageDesc structures used to track which
translation blocks are associated with which physical addresses. In
user-mode this is covered by the mmap_lock.
The second case are TB context related structures which are protected by
tb_lock which is also user-mode only.
Currently the asserts do nothing in SoftMMU mode but this will change
for MTTCG.

Support target CPUs having a page size which isn't knownn
at compile time. To use this, the CPU implementation should:
* define TARGET_PAGE_BITS_VARY
* not define TARGET_PAGE_BITS
* define TARGET_PAGE_BITS_MIN to the smallest value it
might possibly want for TARGET_PAGE_BITS
* call set_preferred_target_page_bits() in its realize
function to indicate the actual preferred target page
size for the CPU (and report any error from it)
In CONFIG_USER_ONLY, the CPU implementation should continue
to define TARGET_PAGE_BITS appropriately for the guest
OS page size.
Machines which want to take advantage of having the page
size something larger than TARGET_PAGE_BITS_MIN must
set the MachineClass minimum_page_bits field to a value
which they guarantee will be no greater than the preferred
page size for any CPU they create.
Note that changing the target page size by setting
minimum_page_bits is a migration compatibility break
for that machine.
For debugging purposes, attempts to use TARGET_PAGE_SIZE
before it has been finally confirmed will assert.

This speeds up MEMORY_LISTENER_CALL noticeably. Right now,
with many PCI devices you have N regions added to M AddressSpaces
(M = # PCI devices with bus-master enabled) and each call looks
up the whole listener list, with at least M listeners in it.
Because most of the regions in N are BARs, which are also roughly
proportional to M, the whole thing is O(M^3). This changes it
to O(M^2), which is the best we can do without rewriting the
whole thing.

CPUState is a fairly common pointer to pass to these helpers. This means
if you need other arguments for the async_run_on_cpu case you end up
having to do a g_malloc to stuff additional data into the routine. For
the current users this isn't a massive deal but for MTTCG this gets
cumbersome when the only other parameter is often an address.
This adds the typedef run_on_cpu_func for helper functions which has an
explicit CPUState * passed as the first parameter. All the users of
run_on_cpu and async_run_on_cpu have had their helpers updated to use
CPUState where available.

The return address argument to the softmmu template helpers was
confused. In the legacy case, we wanted to indicate that there
is no return address, and so passed in NULL. However, we then
immediately subtracted GETPC_ADJ from NULL, resulting in a non-zero
value, indicating the presence of an (invalid) return address.
Push the GETPC_ADJ subtraction down to the only point it's required:
immediately before use within cpu_restore_state_from_tb, after all
NULL pointer checks have been completed.
This makes GETPC and GETRA identical. Remove GETRA as the lesser
used macro, replacing all uses with GETPC.

either NaN (for fp-typed results) or the integer indefinite value (the
minimum representable signed integer value, for int-typed results).
For the non-quiet comparison operations, this touches adjacent code in

When invalidating a translation block, set an invalid flag into the

the target TB is still valid after acquiring 'tb_lock' but before calling
tb_add_jump() since TB lookup is to be performed out of 'tb_lock' in
future. Note that we don't have to check 'last_tb'; an already invalidated
TB will not be executed anyway and it is thus safe to patch it.
Backports commit 6d21e4208f382dd8ca1f7995a6dd9ea7ca281163 from qemu
With a vfio assigned device we lay down a base MemoryRegion registered
as an IO region, giving us read & write accessors. If the region
supports mmap, we lay down a higher priority sub-region MemoryRegion
on top of the base layer initialized as a RAM device pointer to the
mmap. Finally, if we have any quirks for the device (ie. address
ranges that need additional virtualization support), we put another IO
sub-region on top of the mmap MemoryRegion. When this is flattened,
we now potentially have sub-page mmap MemoryRegions exposed which
cannot be directly mapped through KVM.
This is as expected, but a subtle detail of this is that we end up
with two different access mechanisms through QEMU. If we disable the
mmap MemoryRegion, we make use of the IO MemoryRegion and service
accesses using pread and pwrite to the vfio device file descriptor.
If the mmap MemoryRegion is enabled and results in one of these
sub-page gaps, QEMU handles the access as RAM, using memcpy to the
mmap. Using either pread/pwrite or the mmap directly should be
correct, but using memcpy causes us problems. I expect that not only
does memcpy not necessarily honor the original width and alignment in
performing a copy, but it potentially also uses processor instructions
not intended for MMIO spaces. It turns out that this has been a
problem for Realtek NIC assignment, which has such a quirk that
creates a sub-page mmap MemoryRegion access.
To resolve this, we disable memory_access_is_direct() for ram_device
regions since QEMU assumes that it can use memcpy for those regions.
Instead we access through MemoryRegionOps, which replaces the memcpy
with simple de-references of standard sizes to the host memory.
With this patch we attempt to provide unrestricted access to the RAM
device, allowing byte through qword access as well as unaligned
access. The assumption here is that accesses initiated by the VM are
driven by a device specific driver, which knows the device
capabilities. If unaligned accesses are not supported by the device,
we don't want them to work in a VM by performing multiple aligned
accesses to compose the unaligned access. A down-side of this
philosophy is that the xp command from the monitor attempts to use
the largest available access weidth, unaware of the underlying
device. Using memcpy had this same restriction, but at least now an
operator can dump individual registers, even if blocks of device
memory may result in access widths beyond the capabilities of a
given device (RTL NICs only support up to dword).
Backports commit 1b16ded6a512809f99c133a97f19026fe612b2de from qemu
Setting skip_dump on a MemoryRegion allows us to modify one specific
code path, but the restriction we're trying to address encompasses
more than that. If we have a RAM MemoryRegion backed by a physical
device, it not only restricts our ability to dump that region, but
also affects how we should manipulate it. Here we recognize that
MemoryRegions do not change to sometimes allow dumps and other times
not, so we replace setting the skip_dump flag with a new initializer
so that we know exactly the type of region to which we're applying
this behavior.

Rather than rely on recursion during the middle of register allocation,
lower indirect registers to loads and stores off the indirect base into
plain temps.
For an x86_64 host, with sufficient registers, this results in identical
code, modulo the actual register assignments.
For an i686 host, with insufficient registers, this means that temps can
be (temporarily) spilled to the stack in order to satisfy an allocation.
This as opposed to the possibility of not being able to spill, to allocate
a register for the indirect base, in order to perform a spill.

We have a couple places in the code base that want to deep-clone
one QAPI object into another, and they were resorting to serializing
the struct out to QObject then reparsing it. A much more efficient
version can be done by adding a new clone visitor.
Since cloning is still relatively uncommon, expose the use of the
new visitor via a QAPI_CLONE() macro that takes care of type-punning
the underlying function pointer, rather than generating lots of
unused functions for types that won't be cloned. And yes, we're
relying on the compiler treating all pointers equally, even though
a strict C program cannot portably do so - but we're not the first
one in the qemu code base to expect it to work (hello, glib!).
The choice of adding a fourth visitor type deserves some explanation.
On the surface, the clone visitor is mostly an input visitor (it
takes arbitrary input - in this case, another QAPI object - and
creates a new QAPI object during the course of the visit). But
ever since commit da72ab0 consolidated enum visits based on the
visitor type, using VISITOR_INPUT would cause us to run
visit_type_str(), even though for cloning there is nothing to do
(we just copy the enum value across, without regards to its mapping
to strings). Also, since our input happens to be a QAPI object,
we can also satisfy the internal checks for VISITOR_OUTPUT. So in
the end, I settled with a new VISITOR_CLONE, and chose its value
such that many internal checks can use 'v->type & mask', sticking
to 'v->type == value' where the difference matters.
Note that we can only clone objects (including alternates) and lists,
not built-ins or enums. The visitor core hides integer width from
the actual visitor (since commit 04e070d), and as long as that's the
case, we can't clone top-level integers. Then again, those can
always be cloned by direct copy, since they are not objects with
deep pointers, so it's no real loss. And restricting cloning to
just objects and lists is cleaner than restricting it to non-integers.
As such, I documented that the clone visitor is for direct use only
by code internal to QAPI, and should not be used on incomplete objects
(other than a hack to work around the fact that we allow NULL in place
of "" in visit_type_str() in other output visitors). Note that as
written, the clone visitor will never fail on a complete object.
Scalars (including enums) not at the root of the clone copy just fine
with no additional effort while visiting the scalar, by virtue of a
g_memdup() each time we push another struct onto the stack. Cloning
a string requires deduplication of a pointer, which means it can also
provide the guarantee of an input visitor of never producing NULL
even when still accepting NULL in place of "" the way the QMP output
visitor does.
Cloning an 'any' type could be possible by incrementing the QObject
refcnt, but it's not obvious whether that is better than implementing
a QObject deep clone. So for now, we document it as unsupported,
and intentionally omit the .type_any() callback to let a developer
know their usage needs implementation.
Add testsuite coverage for several different clone situations, to
ensure that the code is working. I also tested that valgrind was
happy with the test.
Backports commit a15fcc3cf69ee3d408f60d6cc316488d2b0249b4 from qemu
Making each output visitor provide its own output collection
function was the only remaining reason for exposing visitor
sub-types to the rest of the code base. Add a polymorphic
visit_complete() function which is a no-op for input visitors,
and which populates an opaque pointer for output visitors. For
maximum type-safety, also add a parameter to the output visitor
constructors with a type-correct version of the output pointer,
and assert that the two uses match.
This approach was considered superior to either passing the
output parameter only during construction (action at a distance
during visit_free() feels awkward) or only during visit_complete()
(defeating type safety makes it easier to use incorrectly).
Most callers were function-local, and therefore a mechanical
conversion; the testsuite was a bit trickier, but the previous
cleanup patch minimized the churn here.
The visit_complete() function may be called at most once; doing
so lets us use transfer semantics rather than duplication or
ref-count semantics to get the just-built output back to the
caller, even though it means our behavior is not idempotent.

Making each visitor provide its own (awkwardly-named) FOO_cleanup()
is unusual, when we can instead have a polymorphic visit_free()
interface. Over the next few patches, we can use the polymorphic
functions to eliminate the need for a FOO_get_visitor() function
for accessing specific visitor functionality, once everything can
be accessed directly through the Visitor* interfaces.
The dealloc visitor is the first one converted to completely use

generated and testsuite code was even using it. With the new
visit_free() entry point in place, we no longer need to expose

Backports commit 2c0ef9f411ae6081efa9eca5b3eab2dbeee45a6c from qemu
Rather than making the dealloc visitor track of stack of pointers
remembered during visit_start_* in order to free them during
visit_end_*, it's a lot easier to just make all callers pass the
same pointer to visit_end_*. The generated code has access to the
same pointer, while all other users are doing virtual walks and
can pass NULL. The dealloc visitor is then greatly simplified.
All three visit_end_*() functions intentionally take a void**,
even though the visit_start_*() functions differ between void**,
GenericList**, and GenericAlternate**. This is done for several
reasons: when doing a virtual walk, passing NULL doesn't care
what the type is, but when doing a generated walk, we already
have to cast the caller's specific FOO* to call visit_start,
while using void** lets us use visit_end without a cast. Also,
an upcoming patch will add a clone visitor that wants to use
the same implementation for all three visit_end callbacks,
which is made easier if all three share the same signature.
For visitors with already track per-object state (the QMP visitors
via a stack, and the string visitors which do not allow nesting),
add an assertion that the caller is indeed passing the same
pointer to paired calls.

Range represents a range as follows. Member @start is the inclusive
lower bound, member @end is the exclusive upper bound. Zero @end is
special: if @start is also zero, the range is empty, else @end is to
be interpreted as 2^64. No other empty ranges may occur.
The range [0,2^64-1] cannot be represented. If you try to create it
with range_set_bounds1(), you get the empty range instead. If you try
to create it with range_set_bounds() or range_extend(), assertions
fail. Before range_set_bounds() existed, the open-coded creation
usually got you the empty range instead. Open deathtrap.
Moreover, the code dealing with the janus-faced @end is too clever by
half.
Dumb this down to a more pedestrian representation: members @lob and
@upb are inclusive lower and upper bounds. The empty range is encoded
as @lob = 1, @upb = 0.

Backports commit d22d8956b185c002b50a4d0883aff61f857347ef from qemu
Commit 7f8f9ef1 introduced the ability to store a list of
integers as a sorted list of ranges, but when merging ranges,
it leaks one or more ranges. It was also using range_get_last()
incorrectly within range_compare() (a range is a start/end pair,
but range_get_last() is for start/len pairs), and will also
mishandle a range ending in UINT64_MAX (remember, we document
that no range covers 2**64 bytes, but that ranges that end on
UINT64_MAX have end < begin).
The whole merge algorithm was rather complex, and included
unnecessary passes over data within glib functions, and enough
indirection to make it hard to easily plug the data leaks.
Since we are already hard-coding things to a list of ranges,
just rewrite the thing to open-code the traversal and
comparisons, by making the range_compare() helper function give
us an answer that is easier to use, at which point we avoid the
need to pass any callbacks to g_list_*(). Then by reusing
range_extend() instead of duplicating effort with range_merge(),
we cover the corner cases correctly.
Drop the now-unused range_merge() and ranges_can_merge().
Doing this lets test-string-{input,output}-visitor pass under
valgrind without leaks.
Backports commit db486cc334aafd3dbdaf107388e37fc3d6d3e171 from qemu
Calling our function g_list_insert_sorted_merged is a misnomer,
since we are NOT writing a glib function. Furthermore, we are
making every caller pass the same comparator function of
range_merge(): any caller that would try otherwise would break
in weird ways since our internal call to ranges_can_merge() is
hard-coded to operate only on ranges, rather than paying
attention to the caller's comparator.
Better is to fix things so that callers don't have to care about
our internal comparator, by picking a function name and updating
the parameter type away from a gratuitous use of void*, to make
it obvious that we are operating specifically on a list of ranges
and not a generic list. Plus, refactoring the code here will
make it easier to plug a memory leak in the next patch.
range_compare() is now internal only, and moves to the .c file.
Backports commit 7c47959d0cb05db43014141a156ada0b6d53a750 from qemu
g_list_insert_sorted_merged() is rather large to be an inline
function; move it to its own file. range_merge() and
ranges_can_merge() can likewise move, as they are only used
internally. Also, it becomes obvious that the condition within
range_merge() is already satisfied by its caller, and that the
return value is not used.
The diffstat is misleading, because of the copyright boilerplate.
Backports commit fec0fc0a13ac7f1a1130433a6740cd850c3db34a from qemu
This patch modifies SoftFloat library so that it can be configured in
run-time in relation to the meaning of signaling NaN bit, while, at the
same time, strictly preserving its behavior on all existing platforms.
Background:
In floating-point calculations, there is a need for denoting undefined or
unrepresentable values. This is achieved by defining certain floating-point
numerical values to be NaNs (which stands for "not a number"). For additional
reasons, virtually all modern floating-point unit implementations use two
kinds of NaNs: quiet and signaling. The binary representations of these two
kinds of NaNs, as a rule, differ only in one bit (that bit is, traditionally,
the first bit of mantissa).
Up to 2008, standards for floating-point did not specify all details about
binary representation of NaNs. More specifically, the meaning of the bit
that is used for distinguishing between signaling and quiet NaNs was not
strictly prescribed. (IEEE 754-2008 was the first floating-point standard
that defined that meaning clearly, see [1], p. 35) As a result, different
platforms took different approaches, and that presented considerable
challenge for multi-platform emulators like QEMU.
Mips platform represents the most complex case among QEMU-supported
platforms regarding signaling NaN bit. Up to the Release 6 of Mips
architecture, "1" in signaling NaN bit denoted signaling NaN, which is
opposite to IEEE 754-2008 standard. From Release 6 on, Mips architecture
adopted IEEE standard prescription, and "0" denotes signaling NaN. On top of
that, Mips architecture for SIMD (also known as MSA, or vector instructions)
also specifies signaling bit in accordance to IEEE standard. MSA unit can be
implemented with both pre-Release 6 and Release 6 main processor units.
QEMU uses SoftFloat library to implement various floating-point-related
instructions on all platforms. The current QEMU implementation allows for
defining meaning of signaling NaN bit during build time, and is implemented
via preprocessor macro called SNAN_BIT_IS_ONE.
On the other hand, the change in this patch enables SoftFloat library to be
configured in run-time. This configuration is meant to occur during CPU
initialization, at the moment when it is definitely known what desired
behavior for particular CPU (or any additional FPUs) is.
The change is implemented so that it is consistent with existing
implementation of similar cases. This means that structure float_status is
used for passing the information about desired signaling NaN bit on each
invocation of SoftFloat functions. The additional field in float_status is
called snan_bit_is_one, which supersedes macro SNAN_BIT_IS_ONE.
IMPORTANT:
This change is not meant to create any change in emulator behavior or
functionality on any platform. It just provides the means for SoftFloat
library to be used in a more flexible way - in other words, it will just
prepare SoftFloat library for usage related to Mips platform and its
specifics regarding signaling bit meaning, which is done in some of
subsequent patches from this series.
Further break down of changes:
1) Added field snan_bit_is_one to the structure float_status, and
correspondent setter function set_snan_bit_is_one().
2) Constants <float16|float32|float64|floatx80|float128>_default_nan
(used both internally and externally) converted to functions
<float16|float32|float64|floatx80|float128>_default_nan(float_status*).
This is necessary since they are dependent on signaling bit meaning.
At the same time, for the sake of code cleanup and simplicity, constants
<floatx80|float128>_default_nan_<low|high> (used only internally within
SoftFloat library) are removed, as not needed.
3) Added a float_status* argument to SoftFloat library functions
XXX_is_quiet_nan(XXX a_), XXX_is_signaling_nan(XXX a_),
XXX_maybe_silence_nan(XXX a_). This argument must be present in
order to enable correct invocation of new version of functions
XXX_default_nan(). (XXX is <float16|float32|float64|floatx80|float128>
here)
4) Updated code for all platforms to reflect changes in SoftFloat library.
This change is twofolds: it includes modifications of SoftFloat library
functions invocations, and an addition of invocation of function
set_snan_bit_is_one() during CPU initialization, with arguments that
are appropriate for each particular platform. It was established that
all platforms zero their main CPU data structures, so snan_bit_is_one(0)
in appropriate places is not added, as it is not needed.

Every IOMMU has some granularity which MemoryRegionIOMMUOps::translate
uses when translating, however this information is not available outside
the translate context for various checks.
This adds a get_min_page_size callback to MemoryRegionIOMMUOps and
a wrapper for it so IOMMU users (such as VFIO) can know the minimum
actual page size supported by an IOMMU.
As IOMMU MR represents a guest IOMMU, this uses TARGET_PAGE_SIZE
as fallback.
This removes vfio_container_granularity() and uses new helper in
memory_region_iommu_replay() when replaying IOMMU mappings on added
IOMMU memory region.

For some workloads such as arm bootup, tb_phys_hash is performance-critical.
The is due to the high frequency of accesses to the hash table, originated
by (frequent) TLB flushes that wipe out the cpu-private tb_jmp_cache's.
More info:
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-03/msg05098.html
To dig further into this I modified an arm image booting debian jessie to
immediately shut down after boot. Analysis revealed that quite a bit of time
is unnecessarily spent in tb_phys_hash: the cause is poor hashing that
results in very uneven loading of chains in the hash table's buckets;
the longest observed chain had ~550 elements.
The appended addresses this with two changes:
1) Use xxhash as the hash table's hash function. xxhash is a fast,
high-quality hashing function.
2) Feed the hashing function with not just tb_phys, but also pc and flags.
This improves performance over using just tb_phys for hashing, since that
resulted in some hash buckets having many TB's, while others getting very few;
with these changes, the longest observed chain on a single hash bucket is
brought down from ~550 to ~40.
Tests show that the other element checked for in tb_find_physical,
cs_base, is always a match when tb_phys+pc+flags are a match,
so hashing cs_base is wasteful. It could be that this is an ARM-only
thing, though. UPDATE:
On Tue, Apr 05, 2016 at 08:41:43 -0700, Richard Henderson wrote:

BTW, after this change the hash table should not be called "tb_hash_phys"
anymore; this is addressed later in this series.
This change gives consistent bootup time improvements. I tested two
host machines:
- Intel Xeon E5-2690: 11.6% less time
- Intel i7-4790K: 19.2% less time
Increasing the number of hash buckets yields further improvements. However,
using a larger, fixed number of buckets can degrade performance for other
workloads that do not translate as many blocks (600K+ for debian-jessie arm
bootup). This is dealt with later in this series.

Currently we emit a consume-load in atomic_rcu_read. Because of
limitations in current compilers, this is overkill for non-Alpha hosts
and it is only useful to make Thread Sanitizer work.
This patch leaves the consume-load in atomic_rcu_read when
compiling with Thread Sanitizer enabled, and resorts to a
relaxed load + smp_read_barrier_depends otherwise.
On an RMO host architecture, such as aarch64, the performance

For correctness, smp_read_barrier_depends() is only required to
emit a barrier on Alpha hosts. However, we are currently emitting
a consume fence unconditionally, and most compilers currently treat
consume and acquire fences as equivalent.
Fix it by keeping the consume fence if we're compiling with Thread
Sanitizer, since this might help prevent false warnings. Otherwise,
only emit the barrier for Alpha hosts. Note that we still guarantee
that smp_read_barrier_depends() is a compiler barrier.

Backports commit 3213525f8ab48742db09dab18cb9ae6f36a6c921 from qemu
'tb_invalidated_flag' was meant to catch two events:
* some TB has been invalidated by tb_phys_invalidate();
* the whole translation buffer has been flushed by tb_flush().
Then it was checked:
* in cpu_exec() to ensure that the last executed TB can be safely
linked to directly call the next one;
* in cpu_exec_nocache() to decide if the original TB should be provided
for further possible invalidation along with the temporarily
generated TB.
It is always safe to patch an invalidated TB since it is not going to be
used anyway. It is also safe to call tb_phys_invalidate() for an already
invalidated TB. Thus, setting this flag in tb_phys_invalidate() is
simply unnecessary. Moreover, it can prevent from pretty proper linking
of TBs, if any arbitrary TB has been invalidated. So just don't touch it
in tb_phys_invalidate().
If this flag is only used to catch whether tb_flush() has been called
then rename it to 'tb_flushed'. Declare it as 'bool' and stick to using
only 'true' and 'false' to set its value. Also, instead of setting it in
tb_gen_code(), just after tb_flush() has been called, do it right inside
of tb_flush().
In cpu_exec(), this flag is used to track if tb_flush() has been called
and have made 'next_tb' (a reference to the last executed TB) invalid
for linking it to directly call the next TB. tb_flush() can be called
during the CPU execution loop from tb_gen_code(), during TB execution or
by another thread while 'tb_lock' is released. Catch for translation
buffer flush reliably by resetting this flag once before first TB lookup
and each time we find it set before trying to add a direct jump. Don't
touch in in tb_find_physical().
Each vCPU has its own execution loop in multithreaded mode and thus
should have its own copy of the flag to be able to reset it with its own
'next_tb' and don't affect any other vCPU execution thread. So make this
flag per-vCPU and move it to CPUState.
In cpu_exec_nocache(), we only need to check if tb_flush() has been
called from tb_gen_code() called by cpu_exec_nocache() itself. To do
this reliably, preserve the old value of the flag, reset it before
calling tb_gen_code(), check afterwards, and combine the saved value
back to the flag.
This patch is based on the patch "tcg: move tb_invalidated_flag to
CPUState" from Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>.
