In user-mode emulation Translation Block can consist of 2 guest pages.
In that case QEMU also mprotects 2 host pages that are dedicated for
guest memory, containing instructions. QEMU detects self-modifying code
with SEGFAULT signal processing.
In case if instruction in 1st page is modifying memory of 2nd
page (or vice versa) QEMU will mark 2nd page with PAGE_WRITE,
invalidate TB, generate new TB contatining 1 guest instruction and
exit to CPU loop. QEMU won't call mprotect, and new TB will cause
same SEGFAULT. Page will have both PAGE_WRITE_ORG and PAGE_WRITE
flags, so QEMU will handle the signal as guest binary problem,
and exit with guest SEGFAULT.
Solution is to do following: In case if current TB was invalidated
continue to invalidate TBs from remaining guest pages and mark pages
as PAGE_WRITE. After that disable host page protection with mprotect.
If current tb was invalidated longjmp to main loop. That is more
efficient, since we won't get SEGFAULT when executing new TB.

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:

log2 number of buckets
Note that the original point before this patch series is X=15 for "master";
the little sensitivity to the increased number of buckets is due to the
poor hashing function in master.
xxhash-rcu has significant overhead due to the constant churn of allocating
and deallocating intermediate structs for implementing MRU. An alternative
would be do consider failed lookups as "maybe not there", and then
acquire the external lock (tb_lock in this case) to really confirm that
there was indeed a failed lookup. 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.

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

> 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.

Since this is the only caller of cpu_resume_from_signal() which

The user-mode-only function tb_invalidate_phys_page() is only
called from two places:
* page_unprotect(), which passes in a non-zero pc, a puc pointer
and the value 'true' for the locked argument
* page_set_flags(), which passes in a zero pc, a NULL puc pointer
and a 'false' locked argument
If the pc is non-zero then we may call cpu_resume_from_signal(),
which does a longjmp out of the calling code (and out of the
signal handler); this is to cover the case of a target CPU with
"precise self-modifying code" (currently only x86) executing
a store instruction which modifies code in the same TB as the
store itself. Rather than doing the longjump directly here,
return a flag to the caller which indicates whether the current
TB was modified, and move the longjump to page_unprotect.

'tb_invalidated_flag' was meant to catch two events:
* some TB has been invalidated by tb_phys_invalidate();
* the whole translation buffer has been flushed by tb_flush().
Then it was checked:
* in cpu_exec() to ensure that the last executed TB can be safely
linked to directly call the next one;
* in cpu_exec_nocache() to decide if the original TB should be provided
for further possible invalidation along with the temporarily
generated TB.
It is always safe to patch an invalidated TB since it is not going to be
used anyway. It is also safe to call tb_phys_invalidate() for an already
invalidated TB. Thus, setting this flag in tb_phys_invalidate() is
simply unnecessary. Moreover, it can prevent from pretty proper linking
of TBs, if any arbitrary TB has been invalidated. So just don't touch it
in tb_phys_invalidate().
If this flag is only used to catch whether tb_flush() has been called
then rename it to 'tb_flushed'. Declare it as 'bool' and stick to using
only 'true' and 'false' to set its value. Also, instead of setting it in
tb_gen_code(), just after tb_flush() has been called, do it right inside
of tb_flush().
In cpu_exec(), this flag is used to track if tb_flush() has been called
and have made 'next_tb' (a reference to the last executed TB) invalid
for linking it to directly call the next TB. tb_flush() can be called
during the CPU execution loop from tb_gen_code(), during TB execution or
by another thread while 'tb_lock' is released. Catch for translation
buffer flush reliably by resetting this flag once before first TB lookup
and each time we find it set before trying to add a direct jump. Don't
touch in in tb_find_physical().
Each vCPU has its own execution loop in multithreaded mode and thus
should have its own copy of the flag to be able to reset it with its own
'next_tb' and don't affect any other vCPU execution thread. So make this
flag per-vCPU and move it to CPUState.
In cpu_exec_nocache(), we only need to check if tb_flush() has been
called from tb_gen_code() called by cpu_exec_nocache() itself. To do
this reliably, preserve the old value of the flag, reset it before
calling tb_gen_code(), check afterwards, and combine the saved value
back to the flag.
This patch is based on the patch "tcg: move tb_invalidated_flag to
CPUState" from Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>.

lets us assert that everything is reachable with addis+addi
from tb_ret_addr. This lets us use a max of 4 insns for goto_tb
instead of 7.
Emit the indirect branch portion of goto_tb up front, which
means we only have to update two insns to update any link.
With a 64-bit store, we can update the link atomically, which
may be required in future.

We currently pre-compute an worst case code size for any TB, which
works out to be 122kB. Since the average TB size is near 1kB, this
wastes quite a lot of storage.
Instead, check for overflow in between generating code for each opcode.
The overhead of the check isn't measurable and wastage is minimized.

This will catch any overflow of the buffer.
Add a native win32 alternative for alloc_code_gen_buffer;
remove the malloc alternative.

By putting the prologue at the end, we risk overwriting the
prologue should our estimate of maximum TB size. Given the
two different placements of the call to tcg_prologue_init,
move the high water mark computation into tcg_prologue_init.

Move the size and mask globals for the "real" host page size to
translate-common. This is to allow system-level code to use
REAL_HOST_PAGE_ALIGN and friends in builds which hide translate-all
behind arch-obj.

Move this function to common code. It has no arch specific
dependencies. Prepares support for multi-arch where the translate-all
interface needs to be virtualised. One less thing to virtualise.

tb_lock has to be taken inside the mmap_lock (example:
tb_invalidate_phys_range is called by target_mmap), but
tb_link_page is taking the mmap_lock and it is called
with the tb_lock held.
To fix this, take the mmap_lock in tb_find_slow, not
in tb_link_page.

page_find is reading the radix tree outside all locks, so it has to
use the RCU primitives. It does not need RCU critical sections
because the PageDescs are never removed, so there is never a need
to wait for the end of code sections that use a PageDesc.

spinlock is only used in two cases:
* cpu-exec.c: to protect TranslationBlock
* mem_helper.c: for lock helper in target-i386 (which seems broken).
It's a pthread_mutex_t in user-mode, so we can use QemuMutex directly,
with an #ifdef. The #ifdef will be removed when multithreaded TCG
will need the mutex as well.
