      x86, 64-bit: Clean up user address masking · 9063c61f
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      The discussion about using "access_ok()" in get_user_pages_fast() (see
commit 7f818906: "x86: don't use
'access_ok()' as a range check in get_user_pages_fast()" for details and
end result), made us notice that x86-64 was really being very sloppy
about virtual address checking.

So be way more careful and straightforward about masking x86-64 virtual
addresses:

 - All the VIRTUAL_MASK* variants now cover half of the address
   space, it's not like we can use the full mask on a signed
   integer, and the larger mask just invites mistakes when
   applying it to either half of the 48-bit address space.

 - /proc/kcore's kc_offset_to_vaddr() becomes a lot more
   obvious when it transforms a file offset into a
   (kernel-half) virtual address.

 - Unify/simplify the 32-bit and 64-bit USER_DS definition to
   be based on TASK_SIZE_MAX.

This cleanup and more careful/obvious user virtual address checking also
uncovered a buglet in the x86-64 implementation of strnlen_user(): it
would do an "access_ok()" check on the whole potential area, even if the
string itself was much shorter, and thus return an error even for valid
strings. Our sloppy checking had hidden this.

So this fixes 'strnlen_user()' to do this properly, the same way we
already handled user strings in 'strncpy_from_user()'.  Namely by just
checking the first byte, and then relying on fault handling for the
rest.  That always works, since we impose a guard page that cannot be
mapped at the end of the user space address space (and even if we
didn't, we'd have the address space hole).

 - apic/probe_32.c  declare apic_default before it gets used
 - apic/nmi.c       prev_nmi_count should be unsigned
 - apic/io_apic.c   declare smp_irq_move_cleanup_interrupt() before it gets used

      x86, mm: limit MAXMEM on 64-bit · b6fd6f26
      由 Ingo Molnar 提交于 
      on 64-bit x86 the physical memory limit is controlled by the sparsemem
bits - which are 44 bits right now. But MAXMEM (the max pfn number
e820 parsing will allow to enter our sizing routines) is set to
0x00003fffffffffff, i.e. 46 bits - that's too large because it overlaps
into the vmalloc range.

So couple MAXMEM to MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS, and add a comment that the
maximum of MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS is 45 bits.

      x86: consolidate __swp_XXX() macros · 1796316a
      由 Jan Beulich 提交于 
      Impact: cleanup, code robustization

The __swp_...() macros silently relied upon which bits are used for
_PAGE_FILE and _PAGE_PROTNONE. After having changed _PAGE_PROTNONE in
our Xen kernel to no longer overlap _PAGE_PAT, live locks and crashes
were reported that could have been avoided if these macros properly
used the symbolic constants. Since, as pointed out earlier, for Xen
Dom0 support mainline likewise will need to eliminate the conflict
between _PAGE_PAT and _PAGE_PROTNONE, this patch does all the necessary
adjustments, plus it introduces a mechanism to check consistency
between MAX_SWAPFILES_SHIFT and the actual encoding macros.

This also fixes a latent bug in that x86-64 used a 6-bit mask in
__swp_type(), and if MAX_SWAPFILES_SHIFT was increased beyond 5 in (the
seemingly unrelated) linux/swap.h, this would have resulted in a
collision with _PAGE_FILE.

Non-PAE 32-bit code gets similarly adjusted for its pte_to_pgoff() and
pgoff_to_pte() calculations.

      x86: unsigned long pte_pfn · 91030ca1
      由 Hugh Dickins 提交于 
      pte_pfn() has always been of type unsigned long, even on 32-bit PAE;
but in the current tip/next/mm tree it works out to be unsigned long
long on 64-bit, which gives an irritating warning if you try to printk
a pfn with the usual %lx.

Now use the same pte_pfn() function, moved from pgtable-3level.h
to pgtable.h, for all models: as suggested by Jeremy Fitzhardinge.
And pte_page() can well move along with it (remaining a macro to
avoid dependence on mm_types.h).
