2012-09-04qemu-timer: properly arm alarm timer for timers set by device initializationPaolo Bonzini
QEMU will hang when fed the following command-line qemu-system-mips -kernel vmlinux-2.6.32-5-4kc-malta -append "console=ttyS0" -nographic -net none The -net none is important otherwise it seems some events are generated causing the things to work. When it doesn't work, the guest hangs when measuring the CPU frequency, after the following line: [ 0.000000] NR_IRQS:256 Pressing a key on the serial port unblocks it, hinting that the problem is due to the recent elimination of the 1 second timeout in the main loop. The problem is that because init_timer_alarm sets the timer's pending flag to true, the alarm timer is never armed until after the first time through the main loop. Thus the bug started when QEMU started testing the pending flag in qemu_mod_timer (commit 1828be3, more alarm timer cleanup, 2010-03-10). But actually, it isn't true at all that a timer is pending when the alarm timer is created, and the real bug has been latent forever: the fix is to remove the bogus setting of pending flag.

2012-08-09qemu_rearm_alarm_timer: do not call rearm if the next deadline is INT64_MAXStefano Stabellini
qemu_rearm_alarm_timer partially duplicates the code in qemu_next_alarm_deadline to figure out if it needs to rearm the timer. If it calls qemu_next_alarm_deadline, it always rearms the timer even if the next deadline is INT64_MAX. This patch simplifies the behavior of qemu_rearm_alarm_timer and removes the duplicated code, always calling qemu_next_alarm_deadline and only rearming the timer if the deadline is less than INT64_MAX.

2012-08-02Support 'help' as a synonym for '?' in command line optionsPeter Maydell
For command line options which permit '?' meaning 'please list the permitted values', add support for 'help' as a synonym, by abstracting the check out into a helper function. This change means that in some cases where we were being lazy in our string parsing, "?junk" will now be rejected as an invalid option rather than being (undocumentedly) treated the same way as "?". Update the documentation to use 'help' rather than '?', since '?' is a shell metacharacter and thus prone to fail confusingly if there is a single character filename in the current working directory and the '?' has not been escaped. It's therefore better to steer users towards 'help', though '?' is retained for backwards compatibility. We do not, however, update the output of the system emulator's -help (or any documentation autogenerated from the qemu-options.hx which is the source of the -help text) because libvirt parses our -help output and will break. At a later date when QEMU provides a better interface so libvirt can avoid having to do this, we can update the -help text too.

2012-05-03qemu-timer: Fix limits for w32 mmtimerStefan Weil
timeSetEvent only accepts delays in the range which is returned by timeGetDevCaps. The lower limit is typically 1 (= 1 ms), so the constant value of 1 in the old code usually worked. The upper limit can be as low as 10000 ms, so the latest changes in QEMU's timer handling which introduced timeout values above that limit could result in failures of timeSetEvent when the timer was re-armed.

2012-04-27qemu-timer: Remove function alarm_has_dynticksStefan Weil
Some time ago, the last time which did not have dynticks was removed, so now all timers have dynticks. I also removed a misleading error message for the dynticks timer. If timer_create fails, there is already an error message, and QEMU will use the unix timer which also provides dynamic ticks, therefore dynamic ticks are not disabled. v2: Remove two if statements because they were always true (thanks to Paolo Bonzini for this correction).

2012-04-26timers: the rearm function should be able to handle delta = INT64_MAXStefano Stabellini
Fix win32_rearm_timer and mm_rearm_timer: they should be able to handle INT64_MAX as a delta parameter without overflowing. Also, the next deadline in ms should be calculated rounding down rather than up (see unix_rearm_timer and dynticks_rearm_timer). Finally ChangeTimerQueueTimer takes an unsigned long and timeSetEvent takes an unsigned int as delta, so cast the ms delta to the appropriate unsigned integer.

2012-04-16qemu-timer.c: Remove 250us timeoutsPeter Portante
Basically, the main wait loop calls qemu_run_all_timers() unconditionally. The first thing this routine used to do is to see if a timer had been serviced, and then reset the loop timeout to the next deadline. However, the new deadlines had not been calculated at that point, as qemu_run_timers() had not been called yet for each of the clocks. So qemu_rearm_alarm_timer() would end up with a negative or zero deadline, and default to setting a 250us timeout for the loop. As qemu_run_timers() is called for each clock, the real deadlines would be put in place, but because a loop timeout was already set, the loop timeout would not be changed. Once that 250us timeout fired, the real deadline would be used for the subsequent timeout. For idle VMs, this effectively doubles the number of times through the loop, doubling the number of select() system calls, timer calls, etc. putting added scheduling pressure on the kernel. And under cgroups, this really causes a big problem because the cgroup code does not scale well. By simply running the timers before trying to rearm the timer, we always rearm with a non-zero deadline, effectively halving the number of system calls.

2011-09-15Replace the VMSTOP macros with a proper state typeLuiz Capitulino
Today, when notifying a VM state change with vm_state_notify(), we pass a VMSTOP macro as the 'reason' argument. This is not ideal because the VMSTOP macros tell why qemu stopped and not exactly what the current VM state is. One example to demonstrate this problem is that vm_start() calls vm_state_notify() with reason=0, which turns out to be VMSTOP_USER. This commit fixes that by replacing the VMSTOP macros with a proper state type called RunState. Signed-off-by: Luiz Capitulino <lcapitulino@redhat.com>
2011-09-02main: force enabling of I/O threadAnthony Liguori
Enabling the I/O thread by default seems like an important part of declaring 1.0. Besides allowing true SMP support with KVM, the I/O thread means that the TCG VCPU doesn't have to multiplex itself with the I/O dispatch routines which currently requires a (racey) signal based alarm system. I know there have been concerns about performance. I think so far the ones that have come up (virtio-net) are most likely due to secondary reasons like decreased batching. I think we ought to force enabling I/O thread early in 1.0 development and commit to resolving any lingering issues. Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>

2011-07-23Register Linux dyntick timer as per-thread signalJan Kiszka
Derived from kvm-tool patch http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.kvm.devel/74309 Ingo Molnar pointed out that sending the timer signal to the whole process, just blocking it everywhere, is suboptimal with an increasing number of threads. QEMU is also using this pattern so far. Linux provides a (non-portable) way to restrict the signal to a single thread: We can use SIGEV_THREAD_ID unless we are forced to emulate signalfd via an additional thread. That case could theoretically be optimized as well, but it doesn't look worth bothering.

2011-07-23qemu-timer: Introduce clock reset notifierJan Kiszka
QEMU_CLOCK_HOST is based on the system time which may jump backward in case the admin or NTP adjusts it. RTC emulations and other device models can suffer in this case as timers will stall for the period the clock was tuned back. This adds a detection mechanism that checks on every host clock readout if the new time is before the last result. If that is the case a notifier list is informed. Device models interested in this event can register a notifier with the clock. Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
