      x86/xen/time: Set ->min_delta_ticks and ->max_delta_ticks · 3d18d661
      Nicolai Stange 提交于
      In preparation for making the clockevents core NTP correction aware,
      all clockevent device drivers must set ->min_delta_ticks and
      ->max_delta_ticks rather than ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns: a
      clockevent device's rate is going to change dynamically and thus, the
      ratio of ns to ticks ceases to stay invariant.
      
      Make the x86 arch's xen clockevent driver initialize these fields properly.
      
      This patch alone doesn't introduce any change in functionality as the
      clockevents core still looks exclusively at the (untouched) ->min_delta_ns
      and ->max_delta_ns. As soon as this has changed, a followup patch will
      purge the initialization of ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns from this
      driver.

      x86: Remap GDT tables in the fixmap section · 69218e47
      Thomas Garnier 提交于
      Each processor holds a GDT in its per-cpu structure. The sgdt
      instruction gives the base address of the current GDT. This address can
      be used to bypass KASLR memory randomization. With another bug, an
      attacker could target other per-cpu structures or deduce the base of
      the main memory section (PAGE_OFFSET).
      
      This patch relocates the GDT table for each processor inside the
      fixmap section. The space is reserved based on number of supported
      processors.
      
      For consistency, the remapping is done by default on 32 and 64-bit.
      
      Each processor switches to its remapped GDT at the end of
      initialization. For hibernation, the main processor returns with the
      original GDT and switches back to the remapping at completion.
      
      This patch was tested on both architectures. Hibernation and KVM were
      both tested specially for their usage of the GDT.
      
      Thanks to Boris Ostrovsky <boris.ostrovsky@oracle.com> for testing and
      recommending changes for Xen support.

      x86/cpu: Drop wp_works_ok member of struct cpuinfo_x86 · 6415813b
      Mathias Krause 提交于
      Remove the wp_works_ok member of struct cpuinfo_x86. It's an
      optimization back from Linux v0.99 times where we had no fixup support
      yet and did the CR0.WP test via special code in the page fault handler.
      The < 0 test was an optimization to not do the special casing for each
      NULL ptr access violation but just for the first one doing the WP test.
      Today it serves no real purpose as the test no longer needs special code
      in the page fault handler and the only call side -- mem_init() -- calls
      it just once, anyway. However, Xen pre-initializes it to 1, to skip the
      test.
      
      Doing the test again for Xen should be no issue at all, as even the
      commit introducing skipping the test (commit d560bc61 ("x86, xen:
      Suppress WP test on Xen")) mentioned it being ban aid only. And, in
      fact, testing the patch on Xen showed nothing breaks.
      
      The pre-fixup times are long gone and with the removal of the fallback
      handling code in commit a5c2a893 ("x86, 386 removal: Remove
      CONFIG_X86_WP_WORKS_OK") the kernel requires a working CR0.WP anyway.
      So just get rid of the "optimization" and do the test unconditionally.

      x86/xen: Update e820 table handling to the new core x86 E820 code · 687d77a5
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      Note that I restructured the Xen E820 logic a bit: instead of trying
      to sort the boot parameters, only the kernel's E820 table is sorted.
      
      This is how the x86 code does it and it reduces coupling between
      the in-kernel E820 code and the (unchanged) boot parameters.
