As Eric said, "what we need to do is move the variable vmcoreinfo_note out of the kernel's .bss section. And modify the code to regenerate and keep this information in something like the control page. Definitely something like this needs a page all to itself, and ideally far away from any other kernel data structures. I clearly was not watching closely the data someone decided to keep this silly thing in the kernel's .bss section." This patch allocates extra pages for these vmcoreinfo_XXX variables, one advantage is that it enhances some safety of vmcoreinfo, because vmcoreinfo now is kept far away from other kernel data structures.

The kernel has several code paths that read CR3. Most of them assume that CR3 contains the PGD's physical address, whereas some of them awkwardly use PHYSICAL_PAGE_MASK to mask off low bits. Add explicit mask macros for CR3 and convert all of the CR3 readers. This will keep them from breaking when PCID is enabled.

Lazy TLB state is currently managed in a rather baroque manner. AFAICT, there are three possible states: - Non-lazy. This means that we're running a user thread or a kernel thread that has called use_mm(). current->mm == current->active_mm == cpu_tlbstate.active_mm and cpu_tlbstate.state == TLBSTATE_OK. - Lazy with user mm. We're running a kernel thread without an mm and we're borrowing an mm_struct. We have current->mm == NULL, current->active_mm == cpu_tlbstate.active_mm, cpu_tlbstate.state != TLBSTATE_OK (i.e. TLBSTATE_LAZY or 0). The current cpu is set in mm_cpumask(current->active_mm). CR3 points to current->active_mm->pgd. The TLB is up to date. - Lazy with init_mm. This happens when we call leave_mm(). We have current->mm == NULL, current->active_mm == cpu_tlbstate.active_mm, but that mm is only relelvant insofar as the scheduler is tracking it for refcounting. cpu_tlbstate.state != TLBSTATE_OK. The current cpu is clear in mm_cpumask(current->active_mm). CR3 points to swapper_pg_dir, i.e. init_mm->pgd. This patch simplifies the situation. Other than perf, x86 stops caring about current->active_mm at all. We have cpu_tlbstate.loaded_mm pointing to the mm that CR3 references. The TLB is always up to date for that mm. leave_mm() just switches us to init_mm. There are no longer any special cases for mm_cpumask, and switch_mm() switches mms without worrying about laziness. After this patch, cpu_tlbstate.state serves only to tell the TLB flush code whether it may switch to init_mm instead of doing a normal flush. This makes fairly extensive changes to xen_exit_mmap(), which used to look a bit like black magic. Perf is unchanged. With or without this change, perf may behave a bit erratically if it tries to read user memory in kernel thread context. We should build on this patch to teach perf to never look at user memory when cpu_tlbstate.loaded_mm != current->mm.

Rather than passing all the contents of flush_tlb_info to flush_tlb_others(), pass a pointer to the structure directly. For consistency, this also removes the unnecessary cpu parameter from uv_flush_tlb_others() to make its signature match the other *flush_tlb_others() functions. This serves two purposes: - It will dramatically simplify future patches that change struct flush_tlb_info, which I'm planning to do. - struct flush_tlb_info is an adequate description of what to do for a local flush, too, so by reusing it we can remove duplicated code between local and remove flushes in a future patch.

When booted as pv-guest the p2m list presented by the Xen is already mapped to virtual addresses. In dom0 case the hypervisor might make use of 2M- or 1G-pages for this mapping. Unfortunately while being properly aligned in virtual and machine address space, those pages might not be aligned properly in guest physical address space. So when trying to obtain the guest physical address of such a page pud_pfn() and pmd_pfn() must be avoided as those will mask away guest physical address bits not being zero in this special case.

For kdump to work correctly it needs the physical address of vmcoreinfo_note. When running as dom0 this means the virtual address has to be translated to the related machine address. paddr_vmcoreinfo_note() is meant to do the translation via __pa_symbol() only, but being attributed "weak" it can be replaced easily in Xen case.

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.

Historically a lot of these existed because we did not have a distinction between what was modular code and what was providing support to modules via EXPORT_SYMBOL and friends. That changed when we forked out support for the latter into the export.h file. This means we should be able to reduce the usage of module.h in code that is obj-y Makefile or bool Kconfig. The advantage in doing so is that module.h itself sources about 15 other headers; adding significantly to what we feed cpp, and it can obscure what headers we are effectively using. Since module.h was the source for init.h (for __init) and for export.h (for EXPORT_SYMBOL) we consider each obj-y/bool instance for the presence of either and replace as needed.

When page tables entries are set using xen_set_pte_init() during early boot there is no page fault handler that could handle a fault when performing an M2P lookup. In 64 bit guests (usually dom0) early_ioremap() would fault in xen_set_pte_init() because an M2P lookup faults because the MFN is in MMIO space and not mapped in the M2P. This lookup is done to see if the PFN in in the range used for the initial page table pages, so that the PTE may be set as read-only. The M2P lookup can be avoided by moving the check (and clear of RW) earlier when the PFN is still available.

To be able to move the p2m list to another pfn range, which is needed for support of huge RAM, this memblock_reserve() must be split up to cover all affected reserved pages explicitly.

As the initial P->M table is copied rather early during boot to domain private memory and it's initial virtual mapping is dropped, the easiest way to avoid virtual address conflicts with other addresses in the kernel is to use a user address area for the virtual address of the initial P->M table. This allows us to just throw away the page tables of the initial mapping after the copy without having to care about address invalidation. It should be noted that this patch won't enable a pv-domain to USE more than 512 GB of RAM. It just enables it to be started with a P->M table covering more memory. This is especially important for being able to boot a Dom0 on a system with more than 512 GB memory.

Make the IOCTL_PRIVCMD_MMAPBATCH_V2 (and older V1 version) map multiple frames at a time rather than one at a time, despite the pages being non-consecutive GFNs. xen_remap_foreign_mfn_array() is added which maps an array of GFNs (instead of a consecutive range of GFNs). Since per-frame errors are returned in an array, privcmd must set the MMAPBATCH_V1 error bits as part of the "report errors" phase, after all the frames are mapped. Migrate times are significantly improved (when using a PV toolstack domain). For example, for an idle 12 GiB PV guest: Before After real 0m38.179s 0m26.868s user 0m15.096s 0m13.652s sys 0m28.988s 0m18.732s Signed-off-by: NDavid Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com> Reviewed-by: NStefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@eu.citrix.com>

Auto-translated physmap guests (arm, arm64 and x86 PVHVM/PVH) map and unmap foreign GFNs using the same method (updating the physmap). Unify the two arm and x86 implementations into one commont one. Note that on arm and arm64, the correct error code will be returned (instead of always -EFAULT) and map/unmap failure warnings are no longer printed. These changes are required if the foreign domain is paging (-ENOENT failures are expected and must be propagated up to the caller).

With the virtual mapped linear p2m list the post-init mmu operations must be used for setting up the p2m mappings, as in case of CONFIG_FLATMEM the init routines may trigger BUGs. paging_init() sets up all infrastructure needed to switch to the post-init mmu ops done by xen_post_allocator_init(). With the virtual mapped linear p2m list we need some mmu ops during setup of this list, so we have to switch to the correct mmu ops as soon as possible. The p2m list is usable from the beginning, just expansion requires to have established the new linear mapping. So the call of xen_remap_memory() had to be introduced, but this is not due to the mmu ops requiring this. Summing it up: calling xen_post_allocator_init() not directly after paging_init() was conceptually wrong in the beginning, it just didn't matter up to now as no functions used between the two calls needed some critical mmu ops (e.g. alloc_pte). This has changed now, so I corrected it.

At start of the day the Xen hypervisor presents a contiguous mfn list to a pv-domain. In order to support sparse memory this mfn list is accessed via a three level p2m tree built early in the boot process. Whenever the system needs the mfn associated with a pfn this tree is used to find the mfn. Instead of using a software walked tree for accessing a specific mfn list entry this patch is creating a virtual address area for the entire possible mfn list including memory holes. The holes are covered by mapping a pre-defined page consisting only of "invalid mfn" entries. Access to a mfn entry is possible by just using the virtual base address of the mfn list and the pfn as index into that list. This speeds up the (hot) path of determining the mfn of a pfn. Kernel build on a Dell Latitude E6440 (2 cores, HT) in 64 bit Dom0 showed following improvements: Elapsed time: 32:50 -> 32:35 System: 18:07 -> 17:47 User: 104:00 -> 103:30 Tested with following configurations: - 64 bit dom0, 8GB RAM - 64 bit dom0, 128 GB RAM, PCI-area above 4 GB - 32 bit domU, 512 MB, 8 GB, 43 GB (more wouldn't work even without the patch) - 32 bit domU, ballooning up and down - 32 bit domU, save and restore - 32 bit domU with PCI passthrough - 64 bit domU, 8 GB, 2049 MB, 5000 MB - 64 bit domU, ballooning up and down - 64 bit domU, save and restore - 64 bit domU with PCI passthrough Signed-off-by: NJuergen Gross <jgross@suse.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com>

Today get_phys_to_machine() is always called when the mfn for a pfn is to be obtained. Add a wrapper __pfn_to_mfn() as inline function to be able to avoid calling get_phys_to_machine() when possible as soon as the switch to a linear mapped p2m list has been done.

Early in the boot process the memory layout of a pv-domain is changed to match the E820 map (either the host one for Dom0 or the Xen one) regarding placement of RAM and PCI holes. This requires removing memory pages initially located at positions not suitable for RAM and adding them later at higher addresses where no restrictions apply. To be able to operate on the hypervisor supported p2m list until a virtual mapped linear p2m list can be constructed, remapping must be delayed until virtual memory management is initialized, as the initial p2m list can't be extended unlimited at physical memory initialization time due to it's fixed structure. A further advantage is the reduction in complexity and code volume as we don't have to be careful regarding memory restrictions during p2m updates.

In arch/x86/xen/p2m.c three different allocation functions for obtaining a memory page are used: extend_brk(), alloc_bootmem_align() or __get_free_page(). Which of those functions is used depends on the progress of the boot process of the system. Introduce a common allocation routine selecting the to be called allocation routine dynamically based on the boot progress. This allows moving initialization steps without having to care about changing allocation calls. Signed-off-by: NJuergen Gross <jgross@suse.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com>

This adds CONFIG_X86_VSYSCALL_EMULATION, guarded by CONFIG_EXPERT. Turning it off completely disables vsyscall emulation, saving ~3.5k for vsyscall_64.c, 4k for vsyscall_emu_64.S (the fake vsyscall page), some tiny amount of core mm code that supports a gate area, and possibly 4k for a wasted pagetable. The latter is because the vsyscall addresses are misaligned and fit poorly in the fixmap.
