Hi, maintainers,

As HAXM v7.8.0 is released and it added XCR0 support, could you help to merge this patch to add corresponding support into HAX user space of QEMU? The patch has been included in the attachment. Thanks.


Best Regards,
Wenchao

Is that the full patch? It is missing the register use in 
hax_sync_vcpu_register()...

Hi, Philippe,

It is just the full patch. Currently, the implementation of HAXM is simple, we did not synchronize the vCPU register for xcr0 from QEMU. HAXM will handle the xcr0 state within the kernel space, including initialization, update, etc. This patch adds the xcr0 variable for allocating extra 8-byte buffer occupation, which will be passed between QEMU and HAXM when hax_sync_vcpu_state() is invoked. We have verified the patched QEMU and it can launch all guest OSes. Thanks for your comments.


Best Regards,
Wenchao

Hi, Philippe,

Do you agree with my opinion and is there any further process that I need to follow to get this patch merged? Thanks a lot.

I don't understand this part of HAXM enough, but per your explanation, 
your change looks correct. I'll let Paolo decide :)

Hi, Paolo,

As HAXM v7.8.0 is released and it added XCR0 support, could you help to merge this patch to add corresponding support into HAX user space of QEMU? The patch has been attached below. Thanks.

As Paolo did not comment with this patch, as you used to think it looks correct, could you help to merge this one-line patch as no one picked it up so far? Thanks a lot.

I'm pretty sure Paolo is busy with KVM stuff and will take this patch
when he switch to QEMU (it really is within his area). If he doesn't
comment I'll take it with a generic target/ cleanup series next week.

I don't understand the patch very well, and I am on the phone so it's hard
to check QEMU's HAXM support sources right now. Did HAXM 7.8.0 break
support for QEMU without this patch, and likewise will QEMU with this patch
will HAXM versions older than 7.8.0?

Or does this work on any version because QEMU treats the struct as a black
box?

Hi, Paolo,

Thanks for your reply.

The reason why the variable xcr0 must be added to the header file of QEMU is because HAXM needs QEMU to allocate memory from user space and pass it to the kernel. This patch is only used to expand the buffer size of the structure, and HAXM will use and maintain this variable.
Without this patch, HAXM v7.8.0 will break support for QEMU and the HAXM versions older than 7.8.0 cannot support QEMU with this patch, either. It will work on any version since HAXM v7.8.0. I know QEMU treats the structure as a black box, but HAXM never supported xcr0 before and the structure size is not enough if it has been supported. We have verified the patched QEMU and it can launch all guest OSes. Thanks.

Wenchao

Is that the full patch? It is missing the register use in hax_sync_vcpu_register()...

Hi, Paolo,

Sorry for mistaken expression.

Without this patch, HAXM v7.8.0 will break support for QEMU and the HAXM versions older than 7.8.0 still can support QEMU with this patch. It will work on any version besides HAXM v7.8.0.

Hi, Philippe,

It is just the full patch. Currently, the implementation of HAXM is simple, we did not synchronize the vCPU register for xcr0 from QEMU. HAXM will handle the xcr0 state within the kernel space, including initialization, update, etc. This patch adds the xcr0 variable for allocating extra 8-byte buffer occupation, which will be passed between QEMU and HAXM when hax_sync_vcpu_state() is invoked. We have verified the patched QEMU and it can launch all guest OSes. Thanks for your comments.

I don't understand the patch very well, and I am on the phone so it's hard to check QEMU's HAXM support sources right now. Did HAXM 7.8.0 break support for QEMU without this patch, and likewise will QEMU with this patch will HAXM versions older than 7.8.0?

Or does this work on any version because QEMU treats the struct as a black box?

Paolo

Hi, Paolo,

Thanks for your question.
This buffer is only used by the interfaces of ioctl(HAX_VCPU_SET_REGS) or ioctl(HAX_VCPU_GET_REGS). It is currently sizeof(struct vcpu_state_t), which is changed by the patch. Currently, the parameters passed by different ioctl() are not same, so it may not be possible to allocate only a 4KB size of memory for shared use.

Wenchao

The reason why the variable xcr0 must be added to the header file of QEMU is because HAXM needs QEMU to allocate memory from user space and pass it to the kernel. This patch is only used to expand the buffer size of the structure, and HAXM will use and maintain this variable.
Without this patch, HAXM v7.8.0 will break support for QEMU and the HAXM versions older than 7.8.0 cannot support QEMU with this patch, either. It will work on any version since HAXM v7.8.0. I know QEMU treats the structure as a black box, but HAXM never supported xcr0 before and the structure size is not enough if it has been supported.
