      x86, mm: Report state of NX protections during boot · 4b0f3b81
      由 Kees Cook 提交于 
      It is possible for x86_64 systems to lack the NX bit either due to the
hardware lacking support or the BIOS having turned off the CPU capability,
so NX status should be reported.  Additionally, anyone booting NX-capable
CPUs in 32bit mode without PAE will lack NX functionality, so this change
provides feedback for that case as well.

      x86, mm: Clean up and simplify NX enablement · 4763ed4d
      由 H. Peter Anvin 提交于 
      The 32- and 64-bit code used very different mechanisms for enabling
NX, but even the 32-bit code was enabling NX in head_32.S if it is
available.  Furthermore, we had a bewildering collection of tests for
the available of NX.

This patch:

a) merges the 32-bit set_nx() and the 64-bit check_efer() function
   into a single x86_configure_nx() function.  EFER control is left
   to the head code.

b) eliminates the nx_enabled variable entirely.  Things that need to
   test for NX enablement can verify __supported_pte_mask directly,
   and cpu_has_nx gives the supported status of NX.

      tracing: allow to change permissions for text with dynamic ftrace enabled · 883242dd
      由 Steven Rostedt 提交于 
      The commit 74e08179
x86-64: align RODATA kernel section to 2MB with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA
prevents text sections from becoming read/write using set_memory_rw.

The dynamic ftrace changes all text pages to read/write just before
converting the calls to tracing to nops, and vice versa.

I orginally just added a flag to allow this transaction when ftrace
did the change, but I also found that when the CPA testing was running
it would remove the read/write as well, and ftrace does not do the text
conversion on boot up, and the CPA changes caused the dynamic tracer
to fail on self tests.

The current solution I have is to simply not to prevent
change_page_attr from setting the RW bit for kernel text pages.

      x86-64: align RODATA kernel section to 2MB with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA · 74e08179
      由 Suresh Siddha 提交于 
      CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA chops the large pages spanning boundaries of kernel
text/rodata/data to small 4KB pages as they are mapped with different
attributes (text as RO, RODATA as RO and NX etc).

On x86_64, preserve the large page mappings for kernel text/rodata/data
boundaries when CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is enabled. This is done by allowing the
RODATA section to be hugepage aligned and having same RWX attributes
for the 2MB page boundaries

Extra Memory pages padding the sections will be freed during the end of the boot
and the kernel identity mappings will have different RWX permissions compared to
the kernel text mappings.

Kernel identity mappings to these physical pages will be mapped with smaller
pages but large page mappings are still retained for kernel text,rodata,data
mappings.

      x86-64: preserve large page mapping for 1st 2MB kernel txt with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA · b9af7c0d
      由 Suresh Siddha 提交于 
      In the first 2MB, kernel text is co-located with kernel static
page tables setup by head_64.S.  CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA chops this
2MB large page mapping to small 4KB pages as we mark the kernel text as RO,
leaving the static page tables as RW.

With CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA disabled, OLTP run on NHM-EP shows 1% improvement
with 2% reduction in system time and 1% improvement in iowait idle time.

To recover this, move the kernel static page tables to .data section, so that
we don't have to break the first 2MB of kernel text to small pages with
CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA.

      x86: Interleave emulated nodes over physical nodes · adc19389
      由 David Rientjes 提交于 
      Add interleaved NUMA emulation support

This patch interleaves emulated nodes over the system's physical
nodes. This is required for interleave optimizations since
mempolicies, for example, operate by iterating over a nodemask and
act without knowledge of node distances.  It can also be used for
testing memory latencies and NUMA bugs in the kernel.

There're a couple of ways to do this:

 - divide the number of emulated nodes by the number of physical
   nodes and allocate the result on each physical node, or

 - allocate each successive emulated node on a different physical
   node until all memory is exhausted.

The disadvantage of the first option is, depending on the asymmetry
in node capacities of each physical node, emulated nodes may
substantially differ in size on a particular physical node compared
to another.

The disadvantage of the second option is, also depending on the
asymmetry in node capacities of each physical node, there may be
more emulated nodes allocated on a single physical node as another.

This patch implements the second option; we sacrifice the
possibility that we may have slightly more emulated nodes on a
particular physical node compared to another in lieu of node size
asymmetry.

 [ Note that "node capacity" of a physical node is not only a
   function of its addressable range, but also is affected by
   subtracting out the amount of reserved memory over that range.
   NUMA emulation only deals with available, non-reserved memory
   quantities. ]

We ensure there is at least a minimal amount of available memory
allocated to each node.  We also make sure that at least this
amount of available memory is available in ZONE_DMA32 for any node
that includes both ZONE_DMA32 and ZONE_NORMAL.

This patch also cleans the emulation code up by no longer passing
the statically allocated struct bootnode array among the various
functions. This init.data array is not allocated on the stack since
it may be very large and thus it may be accessed at file scope.

The WARN_ON() for nodes_cover_memory() when faking proximity
domains is removed since it relies on successive nodes always
having greater start addresses than previous nodes; with
interleaving this is no longer always true.

      x86: Export srat physical topology · 8716273c
      由 David Rientjes 提交于 
      This is the counterpart to "x86: export k8 physical topology" for
SRAT. It is not as invasive because the acpi code already seperates
node setup into detection and registration steps, with the
exception of registering e820 active regions in
acpi_numa_memory_affinity_init().  This is now moved to
acpi_scan_nodes() if NUMA emulation is disabled or deferred.

acpi_numa_init() now returns a value which specifies whether an
underlying SRAT was located.  If so, that topology can be used by
the emulation code to interleave emulated nodes over physical nodes
or to register the nodes for ACPI.

acpi_get_nodes() may now be used to export the srat physical
topology of the machine for NUMA emulation.

      x86: Export k8 physical topology · 8ee2debc
      由 David Rientjes 提交于 
      To eventually interleave emulated nodes over physical nodes, we
need to know the physical topology of the machine without actually
registering it.  This does the k8 node setup in two parts:
detection and registration.  NUMA emulation can then used the
physical topology detected to setup the address ranges of emulated
nodes accordingly.  If emulation isn't used, the k8 nodes are
registered as normal.

Two formals are added to the x86 NUMA setup functions: `acpi' and
`k8'. These represent whether ACPI or K8 NUMA has been detected;
both cannot be true at the same time.  This specifies to the NUMA
emulation code whether an underlying physical NUMA topology exists
and which interface to use.

This patch deals solely with separating the k8 setup path into
Northbridge detection and registration steps and leaves the ACPI
changes for a subsequent patch.  The `acpi' formal is added here,
however, to avoid touching all the header files again in the next
patch.

This approach also ensures emulated nodes will not span physical
nodes so the true memory latency is not misrepresented.

k8_get_nodes() may now be used to export the k8 physical topology
of the machine for NUMA emulation.

      x86: Reduce verbosity of "PAT enabled" kernel message · e23a8b6a
      由 Roland Dreier 提交于 
      On modern systems, the kernel prints the message

    x86 PAT enabled: cpu 0, old 0x7040600070406, new 0x7010600070106

once for every CPU.

This gets kind of ridiculous on huge systems; for example, on a
64-thread system I was lucky enough to get:

    dmesg| grep 'PAT enabled' | wc
         64     704    5174

There is already a BUG() if non-boot CPUs have PAT capabilities
that don't match the boot CPU, so just print the message on the
boot CPU. (I kept the print after the wrmsrl() that enables PAT,
so that the log output continues to mean that the system survived
enabling PAT on the boot CPU)

      perf: Do the big rename: Performance Counters -> Performance Events · cdd6c482
      由 Ingo Molnar 提交于 
      Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events!

In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its
initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is
becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging,
monitoring, analysis facility.

Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem
'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending
code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and
less appropriate.

All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance
events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables
and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion)

The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes
it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well.

Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and
suggested a rename.

User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch
should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to
keep the size down.)

This patch has been generated via the following script:

  FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config')

  sed -i \
    -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \
    -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \
    -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \
    -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \
    -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \
    -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \
    $FILES

  for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do
    M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g')
    mv $N $M
  done

  FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*)

  sed -i \
    -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \
    -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \
    -e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \
    -e 's/counter/event/g' \
    -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \
    $FILES

... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be
used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts
a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this
change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches
is the smallest: the end of the merge window.

Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some
stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch.

( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal
  with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit
  over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but
  in case there's something left where 'counter' would be
  better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis
  instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. )

      x86, pat: don't use rb-tree based lookup in reserve_memtype() · dcb73bf4
      由 Suresh Siddha 提交于 
      Recent enhancement of rb-tree based lookup exposed a  bug with the lookup
mechanism in the reserve_memtype() which ensures that there are no conflicting
memtype requests for the memory range.

memtype_rb_search() returns an entry which has a start address <= new start
address. And from here we traverse the linear linked list to check if there
any conflicts with the existing mappings. As the rbtree is based on the
start address of the memory range, it is quite possible that we have several
overlapped mappings whose start address is much less than new requested start
but the end is >= new requested end. This results in conflicting memtype
mappings.

Same bug exists with the old code which uses cached_entry from where
we traverse the linear linked list. But the new rb-tree code exposes this
bug fairly easily.

For now, don't use the memtype_rb_search() and always start the search from
the head of linear linked list in reserve_memtype(). Linear linked list
for most of the systems grow's to few 10's of entries(as we track memory type
of RAM pages using struct page). So we should be ok for now.

We still retain the rbtree and use it to speed up free_memtype() which
doesn't have the same bug(as we know what exactly we are searching for
in free_memtype).

Also use list_for_each_entry_from() in free_memtype() so that we start
the search from rb-tree lookup result.

      agp/intel: Fix the pre-9xx chipset flush. · e517a5e9
      由 Eric Anholt 提交于 
      Ever since we enabled GEM, the pre-9xx chipsets (particularly 865) have had
serious stability issues.  Back in May a wbinvd was added to the DRM to
work around much of the problem.  Some failure remained -- easily visible
by dragging a window around on an X -retro desktop, or by looking at bugzilla.

The chipset flush was on the right track -- hitting the right amount of
memory, and it appears to be the only way to flush on these chipsets, but the
flush page was mapped uncached.  As a result, the writes trying to clear the
writeback cache ended up bypassing the cache, and not flushing anything!  The
wbinvd would flush out other writeback data and often cause the data we wanted
to get flushed, but not always.  By removing the setting of the page to UC
and instead just clflushing the data we write to try to flush it, we get the
desired behavior with no wbinvd.

This exports clflush_cache_range(), which was laying around and happened to
basically match the code I was otherwise going to copy from the DRM.

      xen: make -fstack-protector work under Xen · 577eebea
      由 Jeremy Fitzhardinge 提交于 
      -fstack-protector uses a special per-cpu "stack canary" value.
gcc generates special code in each function to test the canary to make
sure that the function's stack hasn't been overrun.

On x86-64, this is simply an offset of %gs, which is the usual per-cpu
base segment register, so setting it up simply requires loading %gs's
base as normal.

On i386, the stack protector segment is %gs (rather than the usual kernel
percpu %fs segment register).  This requires setting up the full kernel
GDT and then loading %gs accordingly.  We also need to make sure %gs is
initialized when bringing up secondary cpus too.

To keep things consistent, we do the full GDT/segment register setup on
both architectures.

Because we need to avoid -fstack-protected code before setting up the GDT
and because there's no way to disable it on a per-function basis, several
files need to have stack-protector inhibited.

  kmemleak: 515 new suspected memory leaks (see

  kmemleak: 42 new suspected memory leaks (see /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak)

The problem here is that kmemleak will scan partially initialized
objects that makes kmemcheck complain. Fix that up by skipping
uninitialized memory regions when kmemcheck is enabled.
