a489f0b555 lguest: fix guest crash on non-linear addresses in gdt pvops
Fixes guest crash 'lguest: bad read address 0x4800000 len 256'

The new per-cpu allocator ends up handing a non-linear address to
write_gdt_entry.  We do __pa() on it, and hand it to the host, which
kills us.

I've long wanted to make the hypercall "LOAD_GDT_ENTRY" to match the IDT
code, but had no pressing reason until now.

88df781afb lguest: fix crash on vmlinux images
Typical message: 'lguest: unhandled trap 6 at 0x418726 (0x0)'

vmlinux guests were broken by 4cd8b5e2a1
'lguest: use KVM hypercalls', which rewrites guest text from kvm hypercalls
to trap 31.

The Launcher mmaps the kernel image.  The Guest executes and
immediately faults in the first text page (read-only).  Then it hits a
hypercall, and we rewrite that hypercall, causing a copy-on-write.
But the Guest pagetables still refer to the old page: we fault again,
but as Host we see the hypercall already rewritten, and pass the fault
back to the Guest.  The Guest hasn't set up an IDT yet, so we kill it.

This doesn't happen with bzImages: they unpack themselves and so the
text pages are already read-write.

6db6a5f3ae lguest: fix for CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y
Impact: remove lots of lguest boot WARN_ON() when CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y

We now need to call irq_to_desc_alloc_cpu() before
set_irq_chip_and_handler_name(), but we can't do that from init_IRQ (no
kmalloc available).

So do it as we use interrupts instead.  Also means we only alloc for
irqs we use, which was the intent of CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ anyway.

965c7ecaf2 x86: remove the Voyager 32-bit subarch
Impact: remove unused/broken code

The Voyager subarch last built successfully on the v2.6.26 kernel
and has been stale since then and does not build on the v2.6.27,
v2.6.28 and v2.6.29-rc5 kernels.

No actual users beyond the maintainer reported this breakage.
Patches were sent and most of the fixes were accepted but the
discussion around how to do a few remaining issues cleanly
fizzled out with no resolution and the code remained broken.

In the v2.6.30 x86 tree development cycle 32-bit subarch support
has been reworked and removed - and the Voyager code, beyond the
build problems already known, needs serious and significant
changes and probably a rewrite to support it.

CONFIG_X86_VOYAGER has been marked BROKEN then. The maintainer has
been notified but no patches have been sent so far to fix it.

While all other subarchs have been converted to the new scheme,
voyager is still broken. We'd prefer to receive patches which
clean up the current situation in a constructive way, but even in
case of removal there is no obstacle to add that support back
after the issues have been sorted out in a mutually acceptable
fashion.

So remove this inactive code for now.

32-bit lguest used used_vectors to record vectors, but that model of

71a3f4edc1 lguest: use get_user_pages_fast() instead of get_user_pages()
Using a simple page table thrashing program I measure a slight
improvement.  The program creates five processes.  Each touches 1000
pages then schedules the next process.  We repeat this 1000 times.  As
lguest only caches 4 cr3 values, this rebuilds a lot of shadow page
tables requiring virt->phys mappings.

	Before: 5.93 seconds
	After: 5.40 seconds

(Counts of slow vs fastpath in this usage are 6092 and 2852462 respectively.)

And more importantly for lguest, the code is simpler.

54481cf88b x86: fix NULL pointer deref in __switch_to
I am able to reproduce the oops reported by Simon in __switch_to() with
lguest.

My debug showed that there is at least one lguest specific
issue (which should be present in 2.6.25 and before aswell) and it got
exposed with a kernel oops with the recent fpu dynamic allocation patches.

In addition to the previous possible scenario (with fpu_counter), in the
presence of lguest, it is possible that the cpu's TS bit it still set and the
lguest launcher task's thread_info has TS_USEDFPU still set.

This is because of the way the lguest launcher handling the guest's TS bit.
(look at lguest_set_ts() in lguest_arch_run_guest()). This can result
in a DNA fault while doing unlazy_fpu() in __switch_to(). This will
end up causing a DNA fault in the context of new process thats
getting context switched in (as opossed to handling DNA fault in the context
of lguest launcher/helper process).

This is wrong in both pre and post 2.6.25 kernels. In the recent
2.6.26-rc series, this is showing up as NULL pointer dereferences or
sleeping function called from atomic context(__switch_to()), as
we free and dynamically allocate the FPU context for the newly
created threads. Older kernels might show some FPU corruption for processes
running inside of lguest.

With the appended patch, my test system is running for more than 50 mins
now. So atleast some of your oops (hopefully all!) should get fixed.
Please give it a try. I will spend more time with this fix tomorrow.

b769f57908 virtio: set device index in common code.
Anthony Liguori points out that three different transports use the virtio code,
but each one keeps its own counter to set the virtio_device's index field.  In
theory (though not in current practice) this means that names could be
duplicated, and that risk grows as more transports are created.

So we move the selection of the unique virtio_device.index into the common code
in virtio.c, which has the side-benefit of removing duplicate code.

The only complexity is that lguest and S/390 use the index to uniquely identify
the device in case of catastrophic failure before register_virtio_device() is
called: now we use the offset within the descriptor page as a unique identifier
for the printks.

c45a6816c1 virtio: explicit advertisement of driver features
A recent proposed feature addition to the virtio block driver revealed
some flaws in the API: in particular, we assume that feature
negotiation is complete once a driver's probe function returns.

There is nothing in the API to require this, however, and even I
didn't notice when it was violated.

So instead, we require the driver to specify what features it supports
in a table, we can then move the feature negotiation into the virtio
core.  The intersection of device and driver features are presented in
a new 'features' bitmap in the struct virtio_device.

Note that this highlights the difference between Linux unsigned-long
bitmaps where each unsigned long is in native endian, and a
straight-forward little-endian array of bytes.

Drivers can still remove feature bits in their probe routine if they
really have to.

API changes:
- dev->config->feature() no longer gets and acks a feature.
- drivers should advertise their features in the 'feature_table' field
- use virtio_has_feature() for extra sanity when checking feature bits

4357bd9453 lguest: Revert 1ce70c4fac, fix real problem.
Ahmed managed to crash the Host in release_pgd(), which cannot be a Guest
bug, and indeed it wasn't.

The bug was that handing a 0 as the address of the toplevel page table
being manipulated can cause the lookup code in find_pgdir() to return
an uninitialized cache entry (we shadow up to 4 top level page tables
for each Guest).

Commit 37cc8d7f96 introduced this
behaviour in the Guest, uncovering the bug.

The patch which he submitted (which removed the /4 from the index
calculation) simply ensured that these high-indexed entries hit the
early exit path of guest_set_pmd().  But you get lots of segfaults in
guest userspace as the PMDs aren't being updated.

(unlikely), it will attempt to access cpu->tsk even though cpu is not yet
initialized.

31f4b46ec6 lguest: accept guest _PAGE_PWT page table entries
Beginning from commit 4138cc3418, ioremap_nocache() sets the _PAGE_PWT
flag.

Lguest doesn't accept a guest pte with a _PWT flag and reports a "bad
page table entry" in that case.

Accept guest _PAGE_PWT page table entries.

25478445c4 Fix container_of() usage
Using "attr" twice is not OK, because it effectively prohibits such
container_of() on variables not named "attr".

6e5aa7efb2 virtio: reset function
A reset function solves three problems:

1) It allows us to renegotiate features, eg. if we want to upgrade a
   guest driver without rebooting the guest.

2) It gives us a clean way of shutting down virtqueues: after a reset,
   we know that the buffers won't be used by the host, and

3) It helps the guest recover from messed-up drivers.

So we remove the ->shutdown hook, and the only way we now remove
feature bits is via reset.

We leave it to the driver to do the reset before it deletes queues:
the balloon driver, for example, needs to chat to the host in its
remove function.

18445c4d50 virtio: explicit enable_cb/disable_cb rather than callback return.
It seems that virtio_net wants to disable callbacks (interrupts) before
calling netif_rx_schedule(), so we can't use the return value to do so.

Rename "restart" to "cb_enable" and introduce "cb_disable" hook: callback
now returns void, rather than a boolean.

a586d4f601 virtio: simplify config mechanism.
Previously we used a type/len pair within the config space, but this
seems overkill.  We now simply define a structure which represents the
layout in the config space: the config space can now only be extended
at the end.

The main driver-visible changes:
1) We indicate what fields are present with an explicit feature bit.
2) Virtqueues are explicitly numbered, and not in the config space.
