      x86-64, xen, mmu: Provide an early version of write_cr3. · 0cc9129d
      由 Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 提交于 
      With commit 8170e6be ("x86, 64bit: Use a #PF handler to materialize
early mappings on demand") we started hitting an early bootup crash
where the Xen hypervisor would inform us that:

    (XEN) d7:v0: unhandled page fault (ec=0000)
    (XEN) Pagetable walk from ffffea000005b2d0:
    (XEN)  L4[0x1d4] = 0000000000000000 ffffffffffffffff
    (XEN) domain_crash_sync called from entry.S
    (XEN) Domain 7 (vcpu#0) crashed on cpu#3:
    (XEN) ----[ Xen-4.2.0  x86_64  debug=n  Not tainted ]----

.. that Xen was unable to context switch back to dom0.

Looking at the calling stack we find:

    [<ffffffff8103feba>] xen_get_user_pgd+0x5a  <--
    [<ffffffff8103feba>] xen_get_user_pgd+0x5a
    [<ffffffff81042d27>] xen_write_cr3+0x77
    [<ffffffff81ad2d21>] init_mem_mapping+0x1f9
    [<ffffffff81ac293f>] setup_arch+0x742
    [<ffffffff81666d71>] printk+0x48

We are trying to figure out whether we need to up-date the user PGD as
well.  Please keep in mind that under 64-bit PV guests we have a limited
amount of rings: 0 for the Hypervisor, and 1 for both the Linux kernel
and user-space.  As such the Linux pvops'fied version of write_cr3
checks if it has to update the user-space cr3 as well.

That clearly is not needed during early bootup.  The recent changes (see
above git commit) streamline the x86 page table allocation to be much
simpler (And also incidentally the #PF handler ends up in spirit being
similar to how the Xen toolstack sets up the initial page-tables).

The fix is to have an early-bootup version of cr3 that just loads the
kernel %cr3.  The later version - which also handles user-page
modifications will be used after the initial page tables have been
setup.

[ hpa: removed a redundant #ifdef and made the new function __init.
  Also note that x86-32 already has such an early xen_write_cr3. ]

      x86-64: don't set the early IDT to point directly to 'early_idt_handler' · ac630dd9
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      The code requires the use of the proper per-exception-vector stub
functions (set up as the early_idt_handlers[] array - note the 's') that
make sure to set up the error vector number.  This is true regardless of
whether CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK is set or not.

Why? The stack offset for the comparison of __KERNEL_CS won't be right
otherwise, nor will the new check (from commit 8170e6be: "x86,
64bit: Use a #PF handler to materialize early mappings on demand") for
the page fault exception vector.
