Global pages are bad for hardening because they potentially let an
exploit read the kernel image via a Meltdown-style attack which
makes it easier to find gadgets.

But, global pages are good for performance because they reduce TLB
misses when making user/kernel transitions, especially when PCIDs
are not available, such as on older hardware, or where a hypervisor
has disabled them for some reason.

This patch implements a basic, sane policy: If you have PCIDs, you
only map a minimal amount of kernel text global.  If you do not have
PCIDs, you map all kernel text global.

This policy effectively makes PCIDs something that not only adds
performance but a little bit of hardening as well.

I ran a simple "lseek" microbenchmark[1] to test the benefit on
a modern Atom microserver.  Most of the benefit comes from applying
the series before this patch ("entry only"), but there is still a
signifiant benefit from this patch.

  No Global Lines (baseline  ): 6077741 lseeks/sec
  88 Global Lines (entry only): 7528609 lseeks/sec (+23.9%)
  94 Global Lines (this patch): 8433111 lseeks/sec (+38.8%)

Summary:

In current kernels, with PTI enabled, no pages are marked Global. This
potentially increases TLB misses.  But, the mechanism by which the Global
bit is set and cleared is rather haphazard.  This patch makes the process
more explicit.  In the end, it leaves us with Global entries in the page
tables for the areas truly shared by userspace and kernel and increases
TLB hit rates.

The place this patch really shines in on systems without PCIDs.  In this
case, we are using an lseek microbenchmark[1] to see how a reasonably
non-trivial syscall behaves.  Higher is better:

  No Global pages (baseline): 6077741 lseeks/sec
  88 Global Pages (this set): 7528609 lseeks/sec (+23.9%)

On a modern Skylake desktop with PCIDs, the benefits are tangible, but not
huge for a kernel compile (lower is better):

  No Global pages (baseline): 186.951 seconds time elapsed  ( +-  0.35% )
  28 Global pages (this set): 185.756 seconds time elapsed  ( +-  0.09% )
                               -1.195 seconds (-0.64%)

I also re-checked everything using the lseek1 test[1]:

  No Global pages (baseline): 15783951 lseeks/sec
  28 Global pages (this set): 16054688 lseeks/sec
			     +270737 lseeks/sec (+1.71%)

The effect is more visible, but still modest.

Details:

The kernel page tables are inherited from head_64.S which rudely marks
them as _PAGE_GLOBAL.  For PTI, we have been relying on the grace of
$DEITY and some insane behavior in pageattr.c to clear _PAGE_GLOBAL.
This patch tries to do better.

First, stop filtering out "unsupported" bits from being cleared in the
pageattr code.  It's fine to filter out *setting* these bits but it
is insane to keep us from clearing them.

Then, *explicitly* go clear _PAGE_GLOBAL from the kernel identity map.
Do not rely on pageattr to do it magically.

After this patch, we can see that "GLB" shows up in each copy of the
page tables, that we have the same number of global entries in each
and that they are the *same* entries.

  /sys/kernel/debug/page_tables/current_kernel:11
  /sys/kernel/debug/page_tables/current_user:11
  /sys/kernel/debug/page_tables/kernel:11

  9caae8ad6a1fb53aca2407ec037f612d  current_kernel.GLB

  9caae8ad6a1fb53aca2407ec037f612d  kernel.GLB

A quick visual audit also shows that all the entries make sense.
0xfffffe0000000000 is the cpu_entry_area and 0xffffffff81c00000
is the entry/exit text:

The following code contains dead logic:

 162 if (pgd_none(*pgd)) {
 163         unsigned long new_p4d_page = __get_free_page(gfp);
 164         if (!new_p4d_page)
 165                 return NULL;
 166
 167         if (pgd_none(*pgd)) {
 168                 set_pgd(pgd, __pgd(_KERNPG_TABLE | __pa(new_p4d_page)));
 169                 new_p4d_page = 0;
 170         }
 171         if (new_p4d_page)
 172                 free_page(new_p4d_page);
 173 }

There can't be any difference between two pgd_none(*pgd) at L162 and L167,
so it's always false at L171.

Dave Hansen explained:

 Yes, the double-test was part of an optimization where we attempted to
 avoid using a global spinlock in the fork() path.  We would check for
 unallocated mid-level page tables without the lock.  The lock was only
 taken when we needed to *make* an entry to avoid collisions.
 
 Now that it is all single-threaded, there is no chance of a collision,
 no need for a lock, and no need for the re-check.

As all these functions are only called during init, mark them __init as
well.

Meelis reported that his K8 Athlon64 emits MCE warnings when PTI is
enabled:

[Hardware Error]: Error Addr: 0x0000ffff81e000e0
[Hardware Error]: MC1 Error: L1 TLB multimatch.
[Hardware Error]: cache level: L1, tx: INSN

The address is in the entry area, which is mapped into kernel _AND_ user
space. That's special because we switch CR3 while we are executing
there. 

User mapping:
0xffffffff81e00000-0xffffffff82000000           2M     ro         PSE     GLB x  pmd

Kernel mapping:
0xffffffff81000000-0xffffffff82000000          16M     ro         PSE         x  pmd

So the K8 is complaining that the TLB entries differ. They differ in the
GLB bit.

Drop the GLB bit when installing the user shared mapping.
