[PATCH v13 6/7] arm: KVM: dirty log read write protect support

Thu Nov 6 16:40:47 PST 2014


Add support to track dirty pages between user space KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG ioctl
calls. We call kvm_get_dirty_log_protect() function to do most of the work.

+ * kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log - get and clear the log of dirty pages in a slot
+ * @kvm:	kvm instance
+ * @log:	slot id and address to which we copy the log
+ *
+ * We need to keep it in mind that VCPU threads can write to the bitmap
+ * concurrently.  So, to avoid losing data, we keep the following order for
+ * each bit:
+ *
+ *   1. Take a snapshot of the bit and clear it if needed.
+ *   2. Write protect the corresponding page.
+ *   3. Copy the snapshot to the userspace.
+ *   4. Flush TLB's if needed.
+ *
+ * Steps 1,2,3 are handled by kvm_get_dirty_log_protect().
+ * Between 2 and 4, the guest may write to the page using the remaining TLB
+ * entry.  This is not a problem because the page is reported dirty using
+ * the snapshot taken before and step 4 ensures that writes done after
+ * exiting to userspace will be logged for the next call.
