alternative.h pulls in ptrace.h, which means that alternatives can't be used in anything referenced from ptrace.h, which is a mess. Break the dependency by pulling text patching helpers into their own header.

Huge pages are not normally available to PV guests. Not suppressing hugetlbfs use results in an endless loop of page faults when user mode code tries to access a hugetlbfs mapped area (since the hypervisor denies such PTEs to be created, but error indications can't be propagated out of xen_set_pte_at(), just like for various of its siblings), and - once killed in an oops like this: kernel BUG at .../fs/hugetlbfs/inode.c:428! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP ...

The is_ia32_task()/is_x32_task() function names are a big misnomer: they suggests that the compat-ness of a system call is a task property, which is not true, the compatness of a system call purely depends on how it was invoked through the system call layer. A task may call 32-bit and 64-bit and x32 system calls without changing any of its kernel visible state. This specific minomer is also actively dangerous, as it might cause kernel developers to use the wrong kind of security checks within system calls. So rename it to in_{ia32,x32}_syscall().

This adds paravirt callbacks for unsafe MSR access. On native, they call native_{read,write}_msr(). On Xen, they use xen_{read,write}_msr_safe(). Nothing uses them yet for ease of bisection. The next patch will use them in rdmsrl(), wrmsrl(), etc. I intentionally didn't make them warn on #GP on Xen. I think that should be done separately by the Xen maintainers.

This demotes an OOPS and likely panic due to a failed non-"safe" MSR access to a WARN_ONCE() and, for RDMSR, a return value of zero. To be clear, this type of failure should *not* happen.

Allowing user code to map the HPET is problematic. HPET implementations are notoriously buggy, and there are probably many machines on which even MMIO reads from bogus HPET addresses are problematic. We have a report that the Dell Precision M2800 with: ACPI: HPET 0x00000000C8FE6238 000038 (v01 DELL CBX3 01072009 AMI. 00000005) is either so slow when accessing the HPET or actually hangs in some regard, causing soft lockups to be reported if users do unexpected things to the HPET. The vclock HPET code has also always been a questionable speedup. Accessing an HPET is exceedingly slow (on the order of several microseconds), so the added overhead in requiring a syscall to read the HPET is a small fraction of the total code of accessing it. To avoid future problems, let's just delete the code entirely. In the long run, this could actually be a speedup. Waiman Long as a patch to optimize the case where multiple CPUs contend for the HPET, but that won't help unless all the accesses are mediated by the kernel.

The recently introduced batched invalidations mechanism uses its own mechanism for shootdown. However, it does wrong accounting of interrupts (e.g., inc_irq_stat is called for local invalidations), trace-points (e.g., TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN for local invalidations) and may break some platforms as it bypasses the invalidation mechanisms of Xen and SGI UV. This patch reuses the existing TLB flushing mechnaisms instead. We use NULL as mm to indicate a global invalidation is required.

Windows lets applications choose the frequency of the timer tick, and in Windows 10 the maximum rate was changed from 1024 Hz to 2048 Hz. Unfortunately, because of the way the Windows API works, most applications who need a higher rate than the default 64 Hz will just do timeGetDevCaps(&tc, sizeof(tc)); timeBeginPeriod(tc.wPeriodMin); and pick the maximum rate. This causes very high CPU usage when playing media or games on Windows 10, even if the guest does not actually use the CPU very much, because the frequent timer tick causes halt_poll_ns to kick in. There is no really good solution, especially because Microsoft could sooner or later bump the limit to 4096 Hz, but for now the best we can do is lower a bit the upper limit for halt_poll_ns. :-( Reported-by: NJon Panozzo <jonp@lime-technology.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: NPaolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

Xen supports PAT without MTRRs for its guests. In order to enable WC attribute, it was necessary for xen_start_kernel() to call pat_init_cache_modes() to update PAT table before starting guest kernel. Now that the kernel initializes PAT table to the BIOS handoff state when MTRR is disabled, this Xen-specific PAT init code is no longer necessary. Delete it from xen_start_kernel(). Also change __init_cache_modes() to a static function since PAT table should not be tweaked by other modules.

A Xorg failure on qemu32 was reported as a regression [1] caused by commit 9cd25aac ("x86/mm/pat: Emulate PAT when it is disabled"). This patch fixes the Xorg crash. Negative effects of this regression were the following two failures [2] in Xorg on QEMU with QEMU CPU model "qemu32" (-cpu qemu32), which were triggered by the fact that its virtual CPU does not support MTRRs. #1. copy_process() failed in the check in reserve_pfn_range() copy_process copy_mm dup_mm dup_mmap copy_page_range track_pfn_copy reserve_pfn_range A WC map request was tracked as WC in memtype, which set a PTE as UC (pgprot) per __cachemode2pte_tbl[]. This led to this error in reserve_pfn_range() called from track_pfn_copy(), which obtained a pgprot from a PTE. It converts pgprot to page_cache_mode, which does not necessarily result in the original page_cache_mode since __cachemode2pte_tbl[] redirects multiple types to UC. #2. error path in copy_process() then hit WARN_ON_ONCE in untrack_pfn(). x86/PAT: Xorg:509 map pfn expected mapping type uncached- minus for [mem 0xfd000000-0xfdffffff], got write-combining Call Trace: dump_stack warn_slowpath_common ? untrack_pfn ? untrack_pfn warn_slowpath_null untrack_pfn ? __kunmap_atomic unmap_single_vma ? pagevec_move_tail_fn unmap_vmas exit_mmap mmput copy_process.part.47 _do_fork SyS_clone do_syscall_32_irqs_on entry_INT80_32 These negative effects are caused by two separate bugs, but they can be addressed in separate patches. Fixing the pat_init() issue described below addresses the root cause, and avoids Xorg to hit these cases. When the CPU does not support MTRRs, MTRR does not call pat_init(), which leaves PAT enabled without initializing PAT. This pat_init() issue is a long-standing issue, but manifested as issue #1 (and then hit issue #2) with the above-mentioned commit because the memtype now tracks cache attribute with 'page_cache_mode'. This pat_init() issue existed before the commit, but we used pgprot in memtype. Hence, we did not have issue #1 before. But WC request resulted in WT in effect because WC pgrot is actually WT when PAT is not initialized. This is not how it was designed to work. When PAT is set to disable properly, WC is converted to UC. The use of WT can result in a system crash if the target range does not support WT. Fortunately, nobody ran into such issue before. To fix this pat_init() issue, PAT code has been enhanced to provide pat_disable() interface. Call this interface when MTRRs are disabled. By setting PAT to disable properly, PAT bypasses the memtype check, and avoids issue #1.

In preparation for fixing a regression caused by: 9cd25aac ("x86/mm/pat: Emulate PAT when it is disabled") ... PAT needs to provide an interface that prevents the OS from initializing the PAT MSR. PAT MSR initialization must be done on all CPUs using the specific sequence of operations defined in the Intel SDM. This requires MTRRs to be enabled since pat_init() is called as part of MTRR init from mtrr_rendezvous_handler(). Make pat_disable() as the interface that prevents the OS from initializing the PAT MSR. MTRR will call this interface when it cannot provide the SDM-defined sequence to initialize PAT. This also assures that pat_disable() called from pat_bsp_init() will set the PAT table properly when CPU does not support PAT.

In preparation for fixing a regression caused by: 9cd25aac ("x86/mm/pat: Emulate PAT when it is disabled")' ... PAT needs to support a case that PAT MSR is initialized with a non-default value. When pat_init() is called and PAT is disabled, it initializes the PAT table with the BIOS default value. Xen, however, sets PAT MSR with a non-default value to enable WC. This causes inconsistency between the PAT table and PAT MSR when PAT is set to disable on Xen. Change pat_init() to handle the PAT disable cases properly. Add init_cache_modes() to handle two cases when PAT is set to disable. 1. CPU supports PAT: Set PAT table to be consistent with PAT MSR. 2. CPU does not support PAT: Set PAT table to be consistent with PWT and PCD bits in a PTE. Note, __init_cache_modes(), renamed from pat_init_cache_modes(), will be changed to a static function in a later patch.
