cfi: Initial support for cfi-icall in QEMU LLVM/Clang, supports runtime checks for forward-edge Control-Flow Integrity (CFI). CFI on indirect function calls (cfi-icall) ensures that, in indirect function calls, the function called is of the right signature for the pointer type defined at compile time. For this check to work, the code must always respect the function signature when using function pointer, the function must be defined at compile time, and be compiled with link-time optimization. This rules out, for example, shared libraries that are dynamically loaded (given that functions are not known at compile time), and code that is dynamically generated at run-time. This patch: 1) Introduces the CONFIG_CFI flag to support cfi in QEMU 2) Introduces a decorator to allow the definition of "sensitive" functions, where a non-instrumented function may be called at runtime through a pointer. The decorator will take care of disabling cfi-icall checks on such functions, when cfi is enabled. 3) Marks functions currently in QEMU that exhibit such behavior, in particular: - The function in TCG that calls pre-compiled TBs - The function in TCI that interprets instructions - Functions in the plugin infrastructures that jump to callbacks - Functions in util that directly call a signal handler Signed-off-by: Daniele Buono <dbuono@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Acked-by: Alex Bennée <alex.bennee@linaro.org Message-Id: <20201204230615.2392-3-dbuono@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

cpu-exec: Add sleeping algorithm The goal is to sleep qemu whenever the guest clock is in advance compared to the host clock (we use the monotonic clocks). The amount of time to sleep is calculated in the execution loop in cpu_exec. At first, we tried to approximate at each for loop the real time elapsed while searching for a TB (generating or retrieving from cache) and executing it. We would then approximate the virtual time corresponding to the number of virtual instructions executed. The difference between these 2 values would allow us to know if the guest is in advance or delayed. However, the function used for measuring the real time (qemu_clock_get_ns(QEMU_CLOCK_REALTIME)) proved to be very expensive. We had an added overhead of 13% of the total run time. Therefore, we modified the algorithm and only take into account the difference between the 2 clocks at the begining of the cpu_exec function. During the for loop we try to reduce the advance of the guest only by computing the virtual time elapsed and sleeping if necessary. The overhead is thus reduced to 3%. Even though this method still has a noticeable overhead, it no longer is a bottleneck in trying to achieve a better guest frequency for which the guest clock is faster than the host one. As for the the alignement of the 2 clocks, with the first algorithm the guest clock was oscillating between -1 and 1ms compared to the host clock. Using the second algorithm we notice that the guest is 5ms behind the host, which is still acceptable for our use case. The tests where conducted using fio and stress. The host machine in an i5 CPU at 3.10GHz running Debian Jessie (kernel 3.12). The guest machine is an arm versatile-pb built with buildroot. Currently, on our test machine, the lowest icount we can achieve that is suitable for aligning the 2 clocks is 6. However, we observe that the IO tests (using fio) are slower than the cpu tests (using stress).

tcg: consolidate TB lookups in tb_lookup__cpu_state This avoids duplicating code. cpu_exec_step will also use the new common function once we integrate parallel_cpus into tb->cflags. Note that in this commit we also fix a race, described by Richard Henderson during review. Think of this scenario with threads A and B: (A) Lookup succeeds for TB in hash without tb_lock (B) Sets the TB's tb->invalid flag (B) Removes the TB from tb_htable (B) Clears all CPU's tb_jmp_cache (A) Store TB into local tb_jmp_cache Given that order of events, (A) will keep executing that invalid TB until another flush of its tb_jmp_cache happens, which in theory might never happen. We can fix this by checking the tb->invalid flag every time we look up a TB from tb_jmp_cache, so that in the above scenario, next time we try to find that TB in tb_jmp_cache, we won't, and will therefore be forced to look it up in tb_htable. Performance-wise, I measured a small improvement when booting debian-arm.

tcg: drop global lock during TCG code execution This finally allows TCG to benefit from the iothread introduction: Drop the global mutex while running pure TCG CPU code. Reacquire the lock when entering MMIO or PIO emulation, or when leaving the TCG loop. We have to revert a few optimization for the current TCG threading model, namely kicking the TCG thread in qemu_mutex_lock_iothread and not kicking it in qemu_cpu_kick. We also need to disable RAM block reordering until we have a more efficient locking mechanism at hand. Still, a Linux x86 UP guest and my Musicpal ARM model boot fine here. These numbers demonstrate where we gain something: 20338 jan 20 0 331m 75m 6904 R 99 0.9 0:50.95 qemu-system-arm 20337 jan 20 0 331m 75m 6904 S 20 0.9 0:26.50 qemu-system-arm The guest CPU was fully loaded, but the iothread could still run mostly independent on a second core. Without the patch we don't get beyond 32206 jan 20 0 330m 73m 7036 R 82 0.9 1:06.00 qemu-system-arm 32204 jan 20 0 330m 73m 7036 S 21 0.9 0:17.03 qemu-system-arm We don't benefit significantly, though, when the guest is not fully loading a host CPU.

However, the function used for measuring the real time (qemu_clock_get_ns(QEMU_CLOCK_REALTIME)) proved to be very expensive. We had an added overhead of 13% of the total run time. Therefore, we modified the algorithm and only take into account the difference between the 2 clocks at the begining of the cpu_exec function. During the for loop we try to reduce the advance of the guest only by computing the virtual time elapsed and sleeping if necessary. The overhead is thus reduced to 3%. Even though this method still has a noticeable overhead, it no longer is a bottleneck in trying to achieve a better guest frequency for which the guest clock is faster than the host one. As for the the alignement of the 2 clocks, with the first algorithm the guest clock was oscillating between -1 and 1ms compared to the host clock. Using the second algorithm we notice that the guest is 5ms behind the host, which is still acceptable for our use case. The tests where conducted using fio and stress. The host machine in an i5 CPU at 3.10GHz running Debian Jessie (kernel 3.12). The guest machine is an arm versatile-pb built with buildroot.

However, we observe that the IO tests (using fio) are slower than the cpu tests (using stress).

cpu-exec: Add sleeping algorithm The goal is to sleep qemu whenever the guest clock is in advance compared to the host clock (we use the monotonic clocks). The amount of time to sleep is calculated in the execution loop in cpu_exec. At first, we tried to approximate at each for loop the real time elapsed while searching for a TB (generating or retrieving from cache) and executing it. We would then approximate the virtual time corresponding to the number of virtual instructions executed. The difference between these 2 values would allow us to know if the guest is in advance or delayed. However, the function used for measuring the real time (qemu_clock_get_ns(QEMU_CLOCK_REALTIME)) proved to be very expensive. We had an added overhead of 13% of the total run time.

cfi: Initial support for cfi-icall in QEMU LLVM/Clang, supports runtime checks for forward-edge Control-Flow Integrity (CFI). CFI on indirect function calls (cfi-icall) ensures that, in indirect function calls, the function called is of the right signature for the pointer type defined at compile time. For this check to work, the code must always respect the function signature when using function pointer, the function must be defined at compile time, and be compiled with link-time optimization. This rules out, for example, shared libraries that are dynamically loaded (given that functions are not known at compile time), and code that is dynamically generated at run-time. This patch: 1) Introduces the CONFIG_CFI flag to support cfi in QEMU 2) Introduces a decorator to allow the definition of "sensitive" functions, where a non-instrumented function may be called at runtime through a pointer. The decorator will take care of disabling cfi-icall checks on such functions, when cfi is enabled. 3) Marks functions currently in QEMU that exhibit such behavior, in particular: - The function in TCG that calls pre-compiled TBs - The function in TCI that interprets instructions - Functions in the plugin infrastructures that jump to callbacks - Functions in util that directly call a signal handler Signed-off-by: Daniele Buono <dbuono@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Acked-by: Alex Bennée <alex.bennee@linaro.org Message-Id: <20201204230615.2392-3-dbuono@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

tcg: track TBs with per-region BST's This paves the way for enabling scalable parallel generation of TCG code. Instead of tracking TBs with a single binary search tree (BST), use a BST for each TCG region, protecting it with a lock. This is as scalable as it gets, since each TCG thread operates on a separate region. The core of this change is the introduction of struct tcg_region_tree, which contains a pointer to a GTree and an associated lock to serialize accesses to it. We then allocate an array of tcg_region_tree's, adding the appropriate padding to avoid false sharing based on qemu_dcache_linesize. Given a tc_ptr, we first find the corresponding region_tree. This is done by special-casing the first and last regions first, since they might be of size != region.size; otherwise we just divide the offset by region.stride. I was worried about this division (several dozen cycles of latency), but profiling shows that this is not a fast path. Note that region.stride is not required to be a power of two; it is only required to be a multiple of the host's page size. Note that with this design we can also provide consistent snapshots about all region trees at once; for instance, tcg_tb_foreach acquires/releases all region_tree locks before/after iterating over them. For this reason we now drop tb_lock in dump_exec_info(). As an alternative I considered implementing a concurrent BST, but this can be tricky to get right, offers no consistent snapshots of the BST, and performance and scalability-wise I don't think it could ever beat having separate GTrees, given that our workload is insert-mostly (all concurrent BST designs I've seen focus, understandably, on making lookups fast, which comes at the expense of convoluted, non-wait-free insertions/removals).

tb hash: track translated blocks with qht Having a fixed-size hash table for keeping track of all translation blocks is suboptimal: some workloads are just too big or too small to get maximum performance from the hash table. The MRU promotion policy helps improve performance when the hash table is a little undersized, but it cannot make up for severely undersized hash tables. Furthermore, frequent MRU promotions result in writes that are a scalability bottleneck. For scalability, lookups should only perform reads, not writes. This is not a big deal for now, but it will become one once MTTCG matures. The appended fixes these issues by using qht as the implementation of the TB hash table. This solution is superior to other alternatives considered, namely: - master: implementation in QEMU before this patchset - xxhash: before this patch, i.e. fixed buckets + xxhash hashing + MRU. - xxhash-rcu: fixed buckets + xxhash + RCU list + MRU. MRU is implemented here by adding an intermediate struct that contains the u32 hash and a pointer to the TB; this allows us, on an MRU promotion, to copy said struct (that is not at the head), and put this new copy at the head. After a grace period, the original non-head struct can be eliminated, and after another grace period, freed. - qht-fixed-nomru: fixed buckets + xxhash + qht without auto-resize + no MRU for lookups; MRU for inserts. The appended solution is the following: - qht-dyn-nomru: dynamic number of buckets + xxhash + qht w/ auto-resize + no MRU for lookups; MRU for inserts. The plots below compare the considered solutions. The Y axis shows the boot time (in seconds) of a debian jessie image with arm-softmmu; the X axis sweeps the number of buckets (or initial number of buckets for qht-autoresize). The plots in PNG format (and with errorbars) can be seen here: http://imgur.com/a/Awgnq Each test runs 5 times, and the entire QEMU process is pinned to a single core for repeatability of results.

This, however, would not be enough to implement dynamic resizing--this is more complex: see "Resizable, Scalable, Concurrent Hash Tables via Relativistic Programming" by Triplett, McKenney and Walpole. This solution was discarded due to the very coarse RCU read critical sections that we have in MTTCG; resizing requires waiting for readers after every pointer update, and resizes require many pointer updates, so this would quickly become prohibitive. qht-fixed-nomru shows that MRU promotion is advisable for undersized hash tables. However, qht-dyn-mru shows that MRU promotion is not important if the hash table is properly sized: there is virtually no difference in performance between qht-dyn-nomru and qht-dyn-mru. Before this patch, we're at X=15 on "xxhash"; after this patch, we're at X=15 @ qht-dyn-nomru. This patch thus matches the best performance that we can achieve with optimum sizing of the hash table, while keeping the hash table scalable for readers. The improvement we get before and after this patch for booting debian jessie with arm-softmmu is: - Intel Xeon E5-2690: 10.5% less time - Intel i7-4790K: 5.2% less time We could get this same improvement _for this particular workload_ by statically increasing the size of the hash table. But this would hurt workloads that do not need a large hash table. The dynamic (upward) resizing allows us to start small and enlarge the hash table as needed. A quick note on downsizing: the table is resized back to 2**15 buckets on every tb_flush; this makes sense because it is not guaranteed that the table will reach the same number of TBs later on (e.g. most bootup code is thrown away after boot); it makes sense to grow the hash table as more code blocks are translated. This also avoids the complication of having to build downsizing hysteresis logic into qht.

tb hash: track translated blocks with qht Having a fixed-size hash table for keeping track of all translation blocks is suboptimal: some workloads are just too big or too small to get maximum performance from the hash table. The MRU promotion policy helps improve performance when the hash table is a little undersized, but it cannot make up for severely undersized hash tables.

This solution is superior to other alternatives considered, namely: - master: implementation in QEMU before this patchset - xxhash: before this patch, i.e. fixed buckets + xxhash hashing + MRU. - xxhash-rcu: fixed buckets + xxhash + RCU list + MRU. MRU is implemented here by adding an intermediate struct that contains the u32 hash and a pointer to the TB; this allows us, on an MRU promotion, to copy said struct (that is not at the head), and put this new copy at the head. After a grace period, the original non-head struct can be eliminated, and after another grace period, freed. - qht-fixed-nomru: fixed buckets + xxhash + qht without auto-resize + no MRU for lookups; MRU for inserts.

tb hash: hash phys_pc, pc, and flags with xxhash 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: > The cs_base field is only used by i386 (in 16-bit modes), and sparc (for a TB > consisting of only a delay slot). > It may well still turn out to be reasonable to ignore cs_base for hashing. 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.

The improvement we get before and after this patch for booting debian jessie with arm-softmmu is: - Intel Xeon E5-2690: 10.5% less time - Intel i7-4790K: 5.2% less time We could get this same improvement _for this particular workload_ by statically increasing the size of the hash table. But this would hurt workloads that do not need a large hash table. The dynamic (upward) resizing allows us to start small and enlarge the hash table as needed. A quick note on downsizing: the table is resized back to 2**15 buckets on every tb_flush; this makes sense because it is not guaranteed that the table will reach the same number of TBs later on (e.g. most bootup code is thrown away after boot); it makes sense to grow the hash table as more code blocks are translated. This also avoids the complication of having to build downsizing hysteresis logic into qht.

translate-all: protect TB jumps with a per-destination-TB lock This applies to both user-mode and !user-mode emulation. Instead of relying on a global lock, protect the list of incoming jumps with tb->jmp_lock. This lock also protects tb->cflags, so update all tb->cflags readers outside tb->jmp_lock to use atomic reads via tb_cflags(). In order to find the destination TB (and therefore its jmp_lock) from the origin TB, we introduce tb->jmp_dest[]. I considered not using a linked list of jumps, which simplifies code and makes the struct smaller. However, it unnecessarily increases memory usage, which results in a performance decrease.

translate-all: protect TB jumps with a per-destination-TB lock This applies to both user-mode and !user-mode emulation. Instead of relying on a global lock, protect the list of incoming jumps with tb->jmp_lock. This lock also protects tb->cflags, so update all tb->cflags readers outside tb->jmp_lock to use atomic reads via tb_cflags(). In order to find the destination TB (and therefore its jmp_lock) from the origin TB, we introduce tb->jmp_dest[]. I considered not using a linked list of jumps, which simplifies code and makes the struct smaller. However, it unnecessarily increases memory usage, which results in a performance decrease. See for instance these numbers booting+shutting down debian-arm: Time (s) Rel. err (%) Abs. err (s) Rel. slowdown (%) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ before 20.88 0.74 0.154512 0. after 20.81 0.38 0.079078 -0.33524904 GTree 21.02 0.28 0.058856 0.67049808 GHashTable + xxhash 21.63 1.08 0.233604 3.5919540 Using a hash table or a binary tree to keep track of the jumps doesn't really pay off, not only due to the increased memory usage, but also because most TBs have only 0 or 1 jumps to them. The maximum number of jumps when booting debian-arm that I measured is 35, but as we can see in the histogram below a TB with that many incoming jumps is extremely rare; the average TB has 0.80 incoming jumps. n_jumps: 379208; avg jumps/tb: 0.801099 dist: [0.0,1.0)|▄█▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ ▁▁▁▁▁▁ ▁▁▁ ▁▁▁ ▁|[34.0,35.0] Reviewed-by: Richard Henderson <richard.henderson@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Emilio G.

cpu-exec: Add sleeping algorithm The goal is to sleep qemu whenever the guest clock is in advance compared to the host clock (we use the monotonic clocks). The amount of time to sleep is calculated in the execution loop in cpu_exec. At first, we tried to approximate at each for loop the real time elapsed while searching for a TB (generating or retrieving from cache) and executing it. We would then approximate the virtual time corresponding to the number of virtual instructions executed. The difference between these 2 values would allow us to know if the guest is in advance or delayed. However, the function used for measuring the real time (qemu_clock_get_ns(QEMU_CLOCK_REALTIME)) proved to be very expensive. We had an added overhead of 13% of the total run time. Therefore, we modified the algorithm and only take into account the difference between the 2 clocks at the begining of the cpu_exec function. During the for loop we try to reduce the advance of the guest only by computing the virtual time elapsed and sleeping if necessary. The overhead is thus reduced to 3%. Even though this method still has a noticeable overhead, it no longer is a bottleneck in trying to achieve a better guest frequency for which the guest clock is faster than the host one. As for the the alignement of the 2 clocks, with the first algorithm the guest clock was oscillating between -1 and 1ms compared to the host clock. Using the second algorithm we notice that the guest is 5ms behind the host, which is still acceptable for our use case. The tests where conducted using fio and stress. The host machine in an i5 CPU at 3.10GHz running Debian Jessie (kernel 3.12). The guest machine is an arm versatile-pb built with buildroot. Currently, on our test machine, the lowest icount we can achieve that is suitable for aligning the 2 clocks is 6. However, we observe that the IO tests (using fio) are slower than the cpu tests (using stress).

tcg: remove tb_lock Use mmap_lock in user-mode to protect TCG state and the page descriptors. In !user-mode, each vCPU has its own TCG state, so no locks needed. Per-page locks are used to protect the page descriptors. Per-TB locks are used in both modes to protect TB jumps. Some notes: - tb_lock is removed from notdirty_mem_write by passing a locked page_collection to tb_invalidate_phys_page_fast. - tcg_tb_lookup/remove/insert/etc have their own internal lock(s), so there is no need to further serialize access to them. - do_tb_flush is run in a safe async context, meaning no other vCPU threads are running. Therefore acquiring mmap_lock there is just to please tools such as thread sanitizer. - Not visible in the diff, but tb_invalidate_phys_page already has an assert_memory_lock. - cpu_io_recompile is !user-only, so no mmap_lock there. - Added mmap_unlock()'s before all siglongjmp's that could be called in user-mode while mmap_lock is held. + Added an assert for !have_mmap_lock() after returning from the longjmp in cpu_exec, just like we do in cpu_exec_step_atomic.
