We should classify the espfix area as such only if we actually have enabled the corresponding option. Otherwise the page table dump might look confusing.

The IRET instruction, when returning to a 16-bit segment, only restores the bottom 16 bits of the user space stack pointer. This causes some 16-bit software to break, but it also leaks kernel state to user space. We have a software workaround for that ("espfix") for the 32-bit kernel, but it relies on a nonzero stack segment base which is not available in 64-bit mode. In checkin: b3b42ac2 x86-64, modify_ldt: Ban 16-bit segments on 64-bit kernels we "solved" this by forbidding 16-bit segments on 64-bit kernels, with the logic that 16-bit support is crippled on 64-bit kernels anyway (no V86 support), but it turns out that people are doing stuff like running old Win16 binaries under Wine and expect it to work. This works around this by creating percpu "ministacks", each of which is mapped 2^16 times 64K apart. When we detect that the return SS is on the LDT, we copy the IRET frame to the ministack and use the relevant alias to return to userspace. The ministacks are mapped readonly, so if IRET faults we promote #GP to #DF which is an IST vector and thus has its own stack; we then do the fixup in the #DF handler. (Making #GP an IST exception would make the msr_safe functions unsafe in NMI/MC context, and quite possibly have other effects.) Special thanks to: - Andy Lutomirski, for the suggestion of using very small stack slots and copy (as opposed to map) the IRET frame there, and for the suggestion to mark them readonly and let the fault promote to #DF. - Konrad Wilk for paravirt fixup and testing. - Borislav Petkov for testing help and useful comments.

With reusing the ->trampoline_pgd page table for mapping EFI regions in order to use them after having switched to EFI virtual mode, it is very useful to be able to dump aforementioned page table in dmesg. This adds that functionality through the walk_pgd_level() interface which can be called from somewhere else. The original functionality of dumping to debugfs remains untouched.

Without this, adding entries into the address_markers array means adding more and more of an #ifdef maze in pt_dump_init(). By using indices, we can keep it a bit saner.

Rusty, in his peevish way, complained that macros defining constants should have a name which somewhat accurately reflects the actual purpose of the constant. Aside from the fact that PTE_MASK gives no clue as to what's actually being masked, and is misleadingly similar to the functionally entirely different PMD_MASK, PUD_MASK and PGD_MASK, I don't really see what the problem is. But if this patch silences the incessent noise, then it will have achieved its goal (TODO: write test-case).

This patch adds code to the kernel to have an (optional) /proc/kernel_page_tables debug file that basically dumps the kernel pagetables; this allows us kernel developers to verify that nothing fishy is going on and that the various mappings are set up correctly. This was quite useful in finding various change_page_attr() bugs, and is very likely to be useful in the future as well.
