      arm64: Introduce uaccess_{disable,enable} functionality based on TTBR0_EL1 · 4b65a5db
      Catalin Marinas 提交于
      This patch adds the uaccess macros/functions to disable access to user
      space by setting TTBR0_EL1 to a reserved zeroed page. Since the value
      written to TTBR0_EL1 must be a physical address, for simplicity this
      patch introduces a reserved_ttbr0 page at a constant offset from
      swapper_pg_dir. The uaccess_disable code uses the ttbr1_el1 value
      adjusted by the reserved_ttbr0 offset.
      
      Enabling access to user is done by restoring TTBR0_EL1 with the value
      from the struct thread_info ttbr0 variable. Interrupts must be disabled
      during the uaccess_ttbr0_enable code to ensure the atomicity of the
      thread_info.ttbr0 read and TTBR0_EL1 write. This patch also moves the
      get_thread_info asm macro from entry.S to assembler.h for reuse in the
      uaccess_ttbr0_* macros.

      arm64: allow kernel Image to be loaded anywhere in physical memory · a7f8de16
      Ard Biesheuvel 提交于
      This relaxes the kernel Image placement requirements, so that it
      may be placed at any 2 MB aligned offset in physical memory.
      
      This is accomplished by ignoring PHYS_OFFSET when installing
      memblocks, and accounting for the apparent virtual offset of
      the kernel Image. As a result, virtual address references
      below PAGE_OFFSET are correctly mapped onto physical references
      into the kernel Image regardless of where it sits in memory.
      
      Special care needs to be taken for dealing with memory limits passed
      via mem=, since the generic implementation clips memory top down, which
      may clip the kernel image itself if it is loaded high up in memory. To
      deal with this case, we simply add back the memory covering the kernel
      image, which may result in more memory to be retained than was passed
      as a mem= parameter.
      
      Since mem= should not be considered a production feature, a panic notifier
      handler is installed that dumps the memory limit at panic time if one was
      set.

      arm64,ia64,ppc,s390,sh,tile,um,x86,mm: remove default gate area · a6c19dfe
      Andy Lutomirski 提交于
      The core mm code will provide a default gate area based on
      FIXADDR_USER_START and FIXADDR_USER_END if
      !defined(__HAVE_ARCH_GATE_AREA) && defined(AT_SYSINFO_EHDR).
      
      This default is only useful for ia64.  arm64, ppc, s390, sh, tile, 64-bit
      UML, and x86_32 have their own code just to disable it.  arm, 32-bit UML,
      and x86_64 have gate areas, but they have their own implementations.
      
      This gets rid of the default and moves the code into ia64.
      
      This should save some code on architectures without a gate area: it's now
      possible to inline the gate_area functions in the default case.

      arm64: place initial page tables above the kernel · bd00cd5f
      Mark Rutland 提交于
      Currently we place swapper_pg_dir and idmap_pg_dir below the kernel
      image, between PHYS_OFFSET and (PHYS_OFFSET + TEXT_OFFSET). However,
      bootloaders may use portions of this memory below the kernel and we do
      not parse the memory reservation list until after the MMU has been
      enabled. As such we may clobber some memory a bootloader wishes to have
      preserved.
      
      To enable the use of all of this memory by bootloaders (when the
      required memory reservations are communicated to the kernel) it is
      necessary to move our initial page tables elsewhere. As we currently
      have an effectively unbound requirement for memory at the end of the
      kernel image for .bss, we can place the page tables here.
      
      This patch moves the initial page table to the end of the kernel image,
      after the BSS. As they do not consist of any initialised data they will
      be stripped from the kernel Image as with the BSS. The BSS clearing
      routine is updated to stop at __bss_stop rather than _end so as to not
      clobber the page tables, and memory reservations made redundant by the
      new organisation are removed.
