The use of CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is generally seen as an essential part of kernel self-protection: http://www.openwall.com/lists/kernel-hardening/2015/11/30/13 Additionally, its name has grown to mean things beyond just rodata. To get ARM closer to this, we ought to rearrange the names of the configs that control how the kernel protects its memory. What was called CONFIG_ARM_KERNMEM_PERMS is realy doing the work that other architectures call CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA. This redefines CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA to actually do the bulk of the ROing (and NXing). In the place of the old CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA, use CONFIG_DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA, since that's what the option does: adds section alignment for making rodata explicitly NX, as arm does not split the page tables like arm64 does without _ALIGN_RODATA. Also adds human readable names to the sections so I could more easily debug my typos, and makes CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA default "y" for CPU_V7. Results in /sys/kernel/debug/kernel_page_tables for each config state: # CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is not set # CONFIG_DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA is not set ---[ Kernel Mapping ]--- 0x80000000-0x80900000 9M RW x SHD 0x80900000-0xa0000000 503M RW NX SHD CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA=y CONFIG_DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA=y ---[ Kernel Mapping ]--- 0x80000000-0x80100000 1M RW NX SHD 0x80100000-0x80700000 6M ro x SHD 0x80700000-0x80a00000 3M ro NX SHD 0x80a00000-0xa0000000 502M RW NX SHD CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA=y # CONFIG_DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA is not set ---[ Kernel Mapping ]--- 0x80000000-0x80100000 1M RW NX SHD 0x80100000-0x80a00000 9M ro x SHD 0x80a00000-0xa0000000 502M RW NX SHD Signed-off-by: NKees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Reviewed-by: NLaura Abbott <labbott@fedoraproject.org> Signed-off-by: NRussell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

This splits off the reservation of the memory occupied by the FDT binary itself from the processing of the memory reservations it contains. This is necessary because the physical address of the FDT, which is needed to perform the reservation, may not be known to the FDT driver core, i.e., it may be mapped outside the linear direct mapping, in which case __pa() returns a bogus value.

Commit 4b59e6c4 ("mm, show_mem: suppress page counts in non-blockable contexts") introduced SHOW_MEM_FILTER_PAGE_COUNT to suppress PFN walks on large memory machines. Commit c78e9363 ("mm: do not walk all of system memory during show_mem") avoided a PFN walk in the generic show_mem helper which removes the requirement for SHOW_MEM_FILTER_PAGE_COUNT in that case. This patch removes PFN walkers from the arch-specific implementations that report on a per-node or per-zone granularity. ARM and unicore32 still do a PFN walk as they report memory usage on each bank which is a much finer granularity where the debugging information may still be of use. As the remaining arches doing PFN walks have relatively small amounts of memory, this patch simply removes SHOW_MEM_FILTER_PAGE_COUNT.

If allowed by call to memblock_allow_resize() - The Memblock core will try to allocate additional memory and rearrange its internal data in case, if there are more then INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS(128) memory regions of any type have been allocated. If this happens before Low memory is mapped (which is done now by map_lowmem()) the system will hang, because the Memblock core will try to operate with virtual addresses which aren't mapped yet. In ARM code, the memblock resizing is allowed (memblock_allow_resize()) from arm_memblock_init() which is called before map_lowmem(), so this may lead to an error as described above. Hence, allow Memblock resizing later during init, from bootmem_init() when all appropriate mappings are ready.

Most of the kernel code assumes that max*pfn is maximum pfns because the physical start of memory is expected to be PFN0. Since this assumption is not true on ARM architectures, the meaning of max*pfn is number of memory pages. This is done to keep drivers happy which are making use of of these variable to calculate the dma bounce limit using dma_mask. Now since we have a architecture override possibility for DMAable maximum pfns, lets make meaning of max*pfns as maximum pnfs on ARM as well.

We need to start treating DMA masks as something which is specific to the bus that the device resides on, otherwise we're going to hit all sorts of nasty issues with LPAE and 32-bit DMA controllers in >32-bit systems, where memory is offset from PFN 0. In order to start doing this, we convert the DMA mask to a PFN using the device specific dma_to_pfn() macro. This is the reverse of the pfn_to_dma() macro which is used to get the DMA address for the device. This gives us a PFN mask, which we can then check against the PFN limit of the DMA zone.

On some PAE architectures, the entire range of physical memory could reside outside the 32-bit limit. These systems need the ability to specify the initrd location using 64-bit numbers. This patch globally modifies the early_init_dt_setup_initrd_arch() function to use 64-bit numbers instead of the current unsigned long. There has been quite a bit of debate about whether to use u64 or phys_addr_t. It was concluded to stick to u64 to be consistent with rest of the device tree code. As summarized by Geert, "The address to load the initrd is decided by the bootloader/user and set at that point later in time. The dtb should not be tied to the kernel you are booting" More details on the discussion can be found here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/6/20/690 https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/9/13/544Signed-off-by: NSantosh Shilimkar <santosh.shilimkar@ti.com> Acked-by: NRob Herring <rob.herring@calxeda.com> Acked-by: NVineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Acked-by: NJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD <plagnioj@jcrosoft.com> Signed-off-by: NGrant Likely <grant.likely@linaro.org>

Concentrate code to modify totalram_pages into the mm core, so the arch memory initialized code doesn't need to take care of it. With these changes applied, only following functions from mm core modify global variable totalram_pages: free_bootmem_late(), free_all_bootmem(), free_all_bootmem_node(), adjust_managed_page_count(). With this patch applied, it will be much more easier for us to keep totalram_pages and zone->managed_pages in consistence.
