While the userspace interface requests the maximum size the gmap code expects to get a maximum address. This error resulted in bigger page tables than necessary for some guest sizes, e.g. a 2GB guest used 3 levels instead of 2. At the same time we introduce KVM_S390_NO_MEM_LIMIT, which allows in a bright future that a guest spans the complete 64 bit address space. We also switch to TASK_MAX_SIZE for the initial memory size, this is a cosmetic change as the previous size also resulted in a 4 level pagetable creation.

commit 1f6b83e5 ("s390: avoid z13 cache aliasing") checks for the machine type to optimize address space randomization and zero page allocation to avoid cache aliases. This check might fail under a hypervisor with migration support. z/VMs "Single System Image and Live Guest Relocation" facility will "fake" the machine type of the oldest system in the group. For example in a group of zEC12 and Z13 the guest appears to run on a zEC12 (architecture fencing within the relocation domain) Remove the machine type detection and always use cache aliasing rules that are known to work for all machines. These are the z13 aliasing rules.

The program parameter can be used to mark hardware samples with some token. Previously, it was used to mark guest samples only. Improve the program parameter doubleword by combining two parts, the leftmost LPP part and the rightmost PID part. Set the PID part for processes by using the task PID. To distinguish host and guest samples for the kernel (PID part is zero), the guest must always set the program paramater to a non-zero value. Use the leftmost bit in the LPP part of the program parameter to be able to detect guest kernel samples. [brueckner@linux.vnet.ibm.com]: Split __LC_CURRENT and introduced __LC_LPP. Corrected __LC_CURRENT users and adjusted assembler parts. And updated the commit message accordingly.

While pmem is usable as a block device or via DAX mappings to userspace there are several usage scenarios that can not target pmem due to its lack of struct page coverage. In preparation for "hot plugging" pmem into the vmemmap add ZONE_DEVICE as a new zone to tag these pages separately from the ones that are subject to standard page allocations. Importantly "device memory" can be removed at will by userspace unbinding the driver of the device. Having a separate zone prevents allocation and otherwise marks these pages that are distinct from typical uniform memory. Device memory has different lifetime and performance characteristics than RAM. However, since we have run out of ZONES_SHIFT bits this functionality currently depends on sacrificing ZONE_DMA. Cc: H.

With the removal of the dynamic reallocation of page tables for KVM (see git commit 0b46e0a3) the page table allocation / freeing code can be simplified. The page table free code can now use the alloc_pgste bit in the mm context to decide if a page table is 2K or 4K, there is no mix of different sized page tables anymore. This eliminates the need to use "page->_mapcount == 0" to check for 4K page table. Use the lower two bits in page->_mapcount to indicate which 2K fragments of the 4K page are in use. As 31-bit support is gone, remove the two defines ALLOC_ORDER and FRAG_MASK and use the constants directly where appropriate. Signed-off-by: NMartin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

Heiko noticed that the current check for hugepage support on s390 is a little bit too harsh as systems which do not support will crash. The reason is that pageblock_order can now get negative when we set HPAGE_SHIFT to 0.

There is a potential bug with KVM and hugetlbfs if the hardware does not support hugepages (EDAT1). We fix this by making EDAT1 a hard requirement for hugepages and therefore removing and simplifying code. As s390, with the sw-emulated hugepages, was the only user of arch_prepare/release_hugepage I also removed theses calls from common and other architecture code. This patch (of 5): By dropping support for hugepages on machines which do not have the hardware feature EDAT1, we fix a potential s390 KVM bug. The bug would happen if a guest is backed by hugetlbfs (not supported currently), but does not get pagetables with PGSTE. This would lead to random memory overwrites.

Introduce faulthandler_disabled() and use it to check for irq context and disabled pagefaults (via pagefault_disable()) in the pagefault handlers. Please note that we keep the in_atomic() checks in place - to detect whether in irq context (in which case preemption is always properly disabled). In contrast, preempt_disable() should never be used to disable pagefaults. With !CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT, preempt_disable() doesn't modify the preempt counter, and therefore the result of in_atomic() differs. We validate that condition by using might_fault() checks when calling might_sleep(). Therefore, add a comment to faulthandler_disabled(), describing why this is needed. faulthandler_disabled() and pagefault_disable() are defined in linux/uaccess.h, so let's properly add that include to all relevant files.

This fixes the "offset2lib" weakness in ASLR for arm, arm64, mips, powerpc, and x86.

Additionally introduces CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_ELF_RANDOMIZE for describing this feature on architectures that support it (which is a superset of ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE, since s390 already supports a separated ET_DYN ASLR from mmap ASLR without the ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE logic).

Remove the s390 architecture implementation of probe_kernel_write() and instead use a new function s390_kernel_write() to modify kernel text and data everywhere. The s390 implementation of probe_kernel_write() was potentially broken since it modified memory in a read-modify-write fashion, which read four bytes, modified the requested bytes within those four bytes and wrote the result back. If two cpus would modify the same four byte area at different locations within that area, this could lead to corruption. Right now the only places which called probe_kernel_write() did run within stop_machine_run. Therefore the scenario can't happen right now, however that might change at any time. To fix this rename probe_kernel_write() to s390_kernel_write() which can have special semantics, like only call it while running within stop_machine().

Remove the 31 bit support in order to reduce maintenance cost and effectively remove dead code. Since a couple of years there is no distribution left that comes with a 31 bit kernel. The 31 bit kernel also has been broken since more than a year before anybody noticed. In addition I added a removal warning to the kernel shown at ipl for 5 minutes: a960062e ("s390: add 31 bit warning message") which let everybody know about the plan to remove 31 bit code. We didn't get any response. Given that the last 31 bit only machine was introduced in 1999 let's remove the code. Anybody with 31 bit user space code can still use the compat mode.

The base address (STACK_TOP / 3 * 2) for a 64-bit program is two thirds into the 4GB segment at 0x2aa00000000. The randomization added on z13 can eat another 1GB of the remaining 1.33GB to the next 4GB boundary. In the worst case 300MB are left for the executable + bss which may cross into the next 4GB segment. This is bad for branch prediction, therefore align the base address to 4GB to give the program more room before it crosses the 4GB boundary.

Currently we have many duplicates in definitions around follow_huge_addr(), follow_huge_pmd(), and follow_huge_pud(), so this patch tries to remove the m. The basic idea is to put the default implementation for these functions in mm/hugetlb.c as weak symbols (regardless of CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_GENERAL_HUGETL B), and to implement arch-specific code only when the arch needs it. For follow_huge_addr(), only powerpc and ia64 have their own implementation, and in all other architectures this function just returns ERR_PTR(-EINVAL). So this patch sets returning ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) as default. As for follow_huge_(pmd|pud)(), if (pmd|pud)_huge() is implemented to always return 0 in your architecture (like in ia64 or sparc,) it's never called (the callsite is optimized away) no matter how implemented it is. So in such architectures, we don't need arch-specific implementation. In some architecture (like mips, s390 and tile,) their current arch-specific follow_huge_(pmd|pud)() are effectively identical with the common code, so this patch lets these architecture use the common code. One exception is metag, where pmd_huge() could return non-zero but it expects follow_huge_pmd() to always return NULL. This means that we need arch-specific implementation which returns NULL. This behavior looks strange to me (because non-zero pmd_huge() implies that the architecture supports PMD-based hugepage, so follow_huge_pmd() can/should return some relevant value,) but that's beyond this cleanup patch, so let's keep it. Justification of non-trivial changes: - in s390, follow_huge_pmd() checks !MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE at first, and this patch removes the check. This is OK because we can assume MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE is true when follow_huge_pmd() can be called (note that pmd_huge() has the same check and always returns 0 for !MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE.) - in s390 and mips, we use HPAGE_MASK instead of PMD_MASK as done in common code. This patch forces these archs use PMD_MASK, but it's OK because they are identical in both archs. In s390, both of HPAGE_SHIFT and PMD_SHIFT are 20. In mips, HPAGE_SHIFT is defined as (PAGE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT - 3) and PMD_SHIFT is define as (PAGE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT + PTE_ORDER - 3), but PTE_ORDER is always 0, so these are identical.

The core VM already knows about VM_FAULT_SIGBUS, but cannot return a "you should SIGSEGV" error, because the SIGSEGV case was generally handled by the caller - usually the architecture fault handler. That results in lots of duplication - all the architecture fault handlers end up doing very similar "look up vma, check permissions, do retries etc" - but it generally works. However, there are cases where the VM actually wants to SIGSEGV, and applications _expect_ SIGSEGV. In particular, when accessing the stack guard page, libsigsegv expects a SIGSEGV. And it usually got one, because the stack growth is handled by that duplicated architecture fault handler. However, when the generic VM layer started propagating the error return from the stack expansion in commit fee7e49d ("mm: propagate error from stack expansion even for guard page"), that now exposed the existing VM_FAULT_SIGBUS result to user space. And user space really expected SIGSEGV, not SIGBUS. To fix that case, we need to add a VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV, and teach all those duplicate architecture fault handlers about it. They all already have the code to handle SIGSEGV, so it's about just tying that new return value to the existing code, but it's all a bit annoying. This is the mindless minimal patch to do this. A more extensive patch would be to try to gather up the mostly shared fault handling logic into one generic helper routine, and long-term we really should do that cleanup. Just from this patch, you can generally see that most architectures just copied (directly or indirectly) the old x86 way of doing things, but in the meantime that original x86 model has been improved to hold the VM semaphore for shorter times etc and to handle VM_FAULT_RETRY and other "newer" things, so it would be a good idea to bring all those improvements to the generic case and teach other architectures about them too.
