Recently proposed vfio-pci kernel changes (v4.16) remove the
restriction preventing userspace from mmap'ing PCI BARs in areas
overlapping the MSI-X vector table. This change is primarily intended
to benefit host platforms which make use of system page sizes larger
than the PCI spec recommendation for alignment of MSI-X data
structures (ie. not x86_64). In the case of POWER systems, the SPAPR
spec requires the VM to program MSI-X using hypercalls, rendering the
MSI-X vector table unused in the VM view of the device. However,
ARM64 platforms also support 64KB pages and rely on QEMU emulation of
MSI-X. Regardless of the kernel driver allowing mmaps overlapping
the MSI-X vector table, emulation of the MSI-X vector table also
prevents direct mapping of device MMIO spaces overlapping this page.
Thanks to the fact that PCI devices have a standard self discovery
mechanism, we can try to resolve this by relocating the MSI-X data
structures, either by creating a new PCI BAR or extending an existing
BAR and updating the MSI-X capability for the new location. There's
even a very slim chance that this could benefit devices which do not
adhere to the PCI spec alignment guidelines on x86_64 systems.
This new x-msix-relocation option accepts the following choices:
off: Disable MSI-X relocation, use native device config (default)
auto: Use a known good combination for the platform/device (none yet)
bar0..bar5: Specify the target BAR for MSI-X data structures
If compatible, the target BAR will either be created or extended and
the new portion will be used for MSI-X emulation.
The first obvious user question with this option is how to determine
whether a given platform and device might benefit from this option.
In most cases, the answer is that it won't, especially on x86_64.
Devices often dedicate an entire BAR to MSI-X and therefore no
performance sensitive registers overlap the MSI-X area. Take for
example:
# lspci -vvvs 0a:00.0
0a:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation I350 Gigabit Network Connection
...
Region 0: Memory at db680000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=512K]
Region 3: Memory at db7f8000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
...
Capabilities: [70] MSI-X: Enable+ Count=10 Masked-
Vector table: BAR=3 offset=00000000
PBA: BAR=3 offset=00002000
This device uses the 16K bar3 for MSI-X with the vector table at
offset zero and the pending bits arrary at offset 8K, fully honoring
the PCI spec alignment guidance. The data sheet specifically refers
to this as an MSI-X BAR. This device would not see a benefit from
MSI-X relocation regardless of the platform, regardless of the page
size.
However, here's another example:
# lspci -vvvs 02:00.0
02:00.0 Serial Attached SCSI controller: xxxxxxxx
...
Region 0: I/O ports at c000 [size=256]
Region 1: Memory at ef640000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
Region 3: Memory at ef600000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=256K]
...
Capabilities: [c0] MSI-X: Enable+ Count=16 Masked-
Vector table: BAR=1 offset=0000e000
PBA: BAR=1 offset=0000f000
Here the MSI-X data structures are placed on separate 4K pages at the
end of a 64KB BAR. If our host page size is 4K, we're likely fine,
but at 64KB page size, MSI-X emulation at that location prevents the
entire BAR from being directly mapped into the VM address space.
Overlapping performance sensitive registers then starts to be a very
likely scenario on such a platform. At this point, the user could
enable tracing on vfio_region_read and vfio_region_write to determine
more conclusively if device accesses are being trapped through QEMU.
Upon finding a device and platform in need of MSI-X relocation, the
next problem is how to choose target PCI BAR to host the MSI-X data
structures. A few key rules to keep in mind for this selection
include:
* There are only 6 BAR slots, bar0..bar5
* 64-bit BARs occupy two BAR slots, 'lspci -vvv' lists the first slot
* PCI BARs are always a power of 2 in size, extending == doubling
* The maximum size of a 32-bit BAR is 2GB
* MSI-X data structures must reside in an MMIO BAR
Using these rules, we can evaluate each BAR of the second example
device above as follows:
bar0: I/O port BAR, incompatible with MSI-X tables
bar1: BAR could be extended, incurring another 64KB of MMIO
bar2: Unavailable, bar1 is 64-bit, this register is used by bar1
bar3: BAR could be extended, incurring another 256KB of MMIO
bar4: Unavailable, bar3 is 64bit, this register is used by bar3
bar5: Available, empty BAR, minimum additional MMIO
A secondary optimization we might wish to make in relocating MSI-X
is to minimize the additional MMIO required for the device, therefore
we might test the available choices in order of preference as bar5,
bar1, and finally bar3. The original proposal for this feature
included an 'auto' option which would choose bar5 in this case, but
various drivers have been found that make assumptions about the
properties of the "first" BAR or the size of BARs such that there
appears to be no foolproof automatic selection available, requiring
known good combinations to be sourced from users. This patch is
pre-enabled for an 'auto' selection making use of a validated lookup
table, but no entries are yet identified.

Add one more layer to our stack of MemoryRegions, this base region
allows us to register BARs independently of the vfio region or to
extend the size of BARs which do map to a region. This will be
useful when we want hypervisor defined BARs or sections of BARs,
for purposes such as relocating MSI-X emulation. We therefore call
msix_init() based on this new base MemoryRegion, while the quirks,
which only modify regions still operate on those sub-MemoryRegions.

ui: track how much decoded data we consumed when doing SASL encoding
I attempted to fix a flaw with tracking how much data had actually been
processed when encoding with SASL. With that flaw, the VNC server could
mistakenly discard queued data that had not been sent.
The fix was not quite right though, because it merely decremented the
vs->output.offset value. This is effectively discarding data from the
end of the pending output buffer. We actually need to discard data from
the start of the pending output buffer. We also want to free memory that
is no longer required. The correct way to handle this is to use the
buffer_advance() helper method instead of directly manipulating the
offset value.

The purpose of virtio-9p-test is to test the virtio-9p device, especially
the 9p server state machine. We don't really care what fsdev backend we're
using. Moreover, if we want to be able to test the flush request or a
device reset with in-flights I/O, it is close to impossible to achieve
with a physical backend because we cannot ask it reliably to put an I/O
on hold at a specific point in time.
Fortunately, we can do that with the synthetic backend, which allows to
register callbacks on read/write accesses to a specific file. This will
be used by a later patch to test the 9P flush request.

It doesn't really makes sense to hide the request tag from the test
functions. It prevents to test the 9p server behavior when passed
a wrong tag (ie, still in use or different from P9_NOTAG for a
version request). Also the spec says that a tag is reusable as soon
as the corresponding request was replied or flushed: no need to
always increment tags like we do now. And finaly, an upcoming test
of the flush command will need to manipulate tags explicitely.
This simply changes all request functions to have a tag argument.
Except for the version request which needs P9_NOTAG, all other
tests can pass 0 since they wait for the reply before sending
another request.

# Background
I was investigating spurious non-deterministic EINTR returns from
various 9p file system operations in a Linux guest served from the
qemu 9p server.
## EINTR, ERESTARTSYS and the linux kernel
When a signal arrives that the Linux kernel needs to deliver to user-space
while a given thread is blocked (in the 9p case waiting for a reply to its
request in 9p_client_rpc -> wait_event_interruptible), it asks whatever
driver is currently running to abort its current operation (in the 9p case
causing the submission of a TFLUSH message) and return to user space.
In these situations, the error message reported is generally ERESTARTSYS.
If the userspace processes specified SA_RESTART, this means that the
system call will get restarted upon completion of the signal handler
delivery (assuming the signal handler doesn't modify the process state
in complicated ways not relevant here). If SA_RESTART is not specified,
ERESTARTSYS gets translated to EINTR and user space is expected to handle
the restart itself.
## The 9p TFLUSH command
The 9p TFLUSH commands requests that the server abort an ongoing operation.
The man page [1] specifies:
```
If it recognizes oldtag as the tag of a pending transaction, it should
abort any pending response and discard that tag.
[...]
When the client sends a Tflush, it must wait to receive the corresponding
Rflush before reusing oldtag for subsequent messages. If a response to the
flushed request is received before the Rflush, the client must honor the
response as if it had not been flushed, since the completed request may
signify a state change in the server
```
In particular, this means that the server must not send a reply with the
orignal tag in response to the cancellation request, because the client is
obligated to interpret such a reply as a coincidental reply to the original
request.
# The bug
When qemu receives a TFlush request, it sets the `cancelled` flag on the
relevant pdu. This flag is periodically checked, e.g. in
`v9fs_co_name_to_path`, and if set, the operation is aborted and the error
is set to EINTR. However, the server then violates the spec, by returning
to the client an Rerror response, rather than discarding the message
entirely. As a result, the client is required to assume that said Rerror
response is a result of the original request, not a result of the
cancellation and thus passes the EINTR error back to user space.
This is not the worst thing it could do, however as discussed above, the
correct error code would have been ERESTARTSYS, such that user space
programs with SA_RESTART set get correctly restarted upon completion of
the signal handler.
Instead, such programs get spurious EINTR results that they were not
expecting to handle.
It should be noted that there are plenty of user space programs that do not
set SA_RESTART and do not correctly handle EINTR either. However, that is
then a userspace bug. It should also be noted that this bug has been
mitigated by a recent commit to the Linux kernel [2], which essentially
prevents the kernel from sending Tflush requests unless the process is about
to die (in which case the process likely doesn't care about the response).
Nevertheless, for older kernels and to comply with the spec, I believe this
change is beneficial.
# Implementation
The fix is fairly simple, just skipping notification of a reply if
the pdu was previously cancelled. We do however, also notify the transport
layer that we're doing this, so it can clean up any resources it may be
holding. I also added a new trace event to distinguish
operations that caused an error reply from those that were cancelled.
One complication is that we only omit sending the message on EINTR errors in
order to avoid confusing the rest of the code (which may assume that a
client knows about a fid if it sucessfully passed it off to pud_complete
without checking for cancellation status). This does mean that if the server
acts upon the cancellation flag, it always needs to set err to EINTR. I
believe this is true of the current code.

200 currently fails on tmpfs because it sets cache=none. However,
without that (and aio=native), the test still works now and it fails
before Jeff's series (on fc7dbc119e). So
we can probably remove the aio=native safely, and replace cache=none by
cache=$CACHEMODE.
