So there's a number of constants that start with "E820" but which are not types - these create a confusing mixture when seen together with 'enum e820_type' values: E820MAP E820NR E820_X_MAX E820MAX To better differentiate the 'enum e820_type' values prefix them with E820_TYPE_. No change in functionality.

x86/boot/e820: Move the memblock_find_dma_reserve() function and rename it to memblock_set_dma_reserve() We introduced memblock_find_dma_reserve() in this commit: 6f2a7536 x86, memblock: Use memblock_memory_size()/memblock_free_memory_size() to get correct dma_reserve But there's several problems with it: - The changelog is full of typos and is incomprehensible in general, and the comments in the code are not much better either. - The function was inexplicably placed into e820.c, while it has very little connection to the E820 table: when we call memblock_find_dma_reserve() then memblock is already set up and we are not using the E820 table anymore. - The function is a wrapper around set_dma_reserve(), but changed the 'set' name to 'find' - actively misleading about its primary purpose, which is still to set the DMA-reserve value. - The function is limited to 64-bit systems, but neither the changelog nor the comments explain why. The change would appear to be relevant to 32-bit systems as well, as the ISA DMA zone is the first 16 MB of RAM. So address some of these problems: - Move it into arch/x86/mm/init.c, next to the other zone setup related functions. - Clean up the code flow and names of local variables a bit. - Rename it to memblock_set_dma_reserve() - Improve the comments. No change in functionality. Enabling it for 32-bit systems is left for a separate patch.

In line with asm/e820/types.h, move the e820 API declarations to asm/e820/api.h and update all usage sites.

The maximum size of e820 map array for EFI systems is defined as E820_X_MAX (E820MAX + 3 * MAX_NUMNODES). In x86_64 defconfig, this ends up with E820_X_MAX = 320, e820 and e820_saved are 6404 bytes each. With larger configs, for example Fedora kernels, E820_X_MAX = 3200, e820 and e820_saved are 64004 bytes each. Most of this space is wasted. Typical machines have some 20-30 e820 areas at most. After previous patch, e820 and e820_saved are pointers to e280 maps. Change them to initially point to maps which are __initdata. At the very end of kernel init, just before __init[data] sections are freed in free_initmem(), allocate smaller blocks, copy maps there, and change pointers. The late switch makes sure that all functions which can be used to change e820 maps are no longer accessible (they are all __init functions). Run-tested.

Default implementation expects 6 pages maximum are needed for low page allocations. If KASLR memory randomization is enabled, the worse case of e820 layout would require 12 pages (no large pages). It is due to the PUD level randomization and the variable e820 memory layout. This bug was found while doing extensive testing of KASLR memory randomization on different type of hardware.

Randomizes the virtual address space of kernel memory regions for x86_64. This first patch adds the infrastructure and does not randomize any region. The following patches will randomize the physical memory mapping, vmalloc and vmemmap regions. This security feature mitigates exploits relying on predictable kernel addresses. These addresses can be used to disclose the kernel modules base addresses or corrupt specific structures to elevate privileges bypassing the current implementation of KASLR. This feature can be enabled with the CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MEMORY option. The order of each memory region is not changed. The feature looks at the available space for the regions based on different configuration options and randomizes the base and space between each. The size of the physical memory mapping is the available physical memory. No performance impact was detected while testing the feature. Entropy is generated using the KASLR early boot functions now shared in the lib directory (originally written by Kees Cook). Randomization is done on PGD & PUD page table levels to increase possible addresses. The physical memory mapping code was adapted to support PUD level virtual addresses. This implementation on the best configuration provides 30,000 possible virtual addresses in average for each memory region. An additional low memory page is used to ensure each CPU can start with a PGD aligned virtual address (for realmode). x86/dump_pagetable was updated to correctly display each region. Updated documentation on x86_64 memory layout accordingly.

Usually, after we have found the proper microcode blob for the current machine, we stash it away for later use with save_microcode_in_initrd(). However, with builtin microcode which doesn't come from the initrd, we don't call that function because CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD=n and even if set, we don't have a valid initrd. In order to fix this, let's make save_microcode_in_initrd() an fs_initcall which runs before rootfs_initcall() as this was the time it was called previously through: rootfs_initcall(populate_rootfs) |-> free_initrd() |-> free_initrd_mem() |-> save_microcode_in_initrd() Also, we make it run independently from initrd functionality being present or not. And since it is called in the microcode loader only now, we can also make it static.

When PAT is disabled, pat_init() does update the tables below to enable WT per the default BIOS setup. However, when PAT is enabled, but CPU has PAT -errata, WT falls back to UC per the default values."

In the case when PAT is disabled on the command line with "nopat" or when virtualization doesn't support PAT (correctly) - see 9d34cfdf ("x86: Don't rely on VMWare emulating PAT MSR correctly"). we emulate it using the PWT and PCD cache attribute bits.

direct_gbpages can be force enabled as an early parameter but not really have taken effect when DEBUG_PAGEALLOC or KMEMCHECK is enabled. You can also enable direct_gbpages right now if you have an x86_64 architecture but your CPU doesn't really have support for this feature. In both cases PG_LEVEL_1G won't actually be enabled but direct_gbpages is used in other areas under the assumptions that PG_LEVEL_1G was set. Fix this by putting together all requirements which make this feature sensible to enable under, and only enable both finally flipping on PG_LEVEL_1G and leaving PG_LEVEL_1G set when this is true. We only enable this feature then to be possible on sensible builds defined by the new ENABLE_DIRECT_GBPAGES. If the CPU has support for it you can either enable this by using the DIRECT_GBPAGES option or using the early kernel parameter. If a platform had support for this you can always force disable it as well. Signed-off-by: NLuis R.

With 32-bit non-PAE kernels, we have 2 page sizes available (at most): 4k and 4M. Enabling PAE replaces that 4M size with a 2M one (which 64-bit systems use too). But, when booting a 32-bit non-PAE kernel, in one of our early-boot printouts, we say: init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x00000000-0x000fffff] [mem 0x00000000-0x000fffff] page 4k init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x37000000-0x373fffff] [mem 0x37000000-0x373fffff] page 2M init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x00100000-0x36ffffff] [mem 0x00100000-0x003fffff] page 4k [mem 0x00400000-0x36ffffff] page 2M init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x37400000-0x377fdfff] [mem 0x37400000-0x377fdfff] page 4k Which is obviously wrong. There is no 2M page available. This is probably because of a badly-named variable: in the map_range code: PG_LEVEL_2M. Instead of renaming all the PG_LEVEL_2M's. This patch just fixes the printout: init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x00000000-0x000fffff] [mem 0x00000000-0x000fffff] page 4k init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x37000000-0x373fffff] [mem 0x37000000-0x373fffff] page 4M init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x00100000-0x36ffffff] [mem 0x00100000-0x003fffff] page 4k [mem 0x00400000-0x36ffffff] page 4M init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x37400000-0x377fdfff] [mem 0x37400000-0x377fdfff] page 4k BRK [0x03206000, 0x03206fff] PGTABLE Signed-off-by: NDave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi> Cc: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20150210212030.665EC267@viggo.jf.intel.comSigned-off-by: NBorislav Petkov <bp@suse.de>

Context switches and TLB flushes can change individual bits of CR4. CR4 reads take several cycles, so store a shadow copy of CR4 in a per-cpu variable. To avoid wasting a cache line, I added the CR4 shadow to cpu_tlbstate, which is already touched in switch_mm. The heaviest users of the cr4 shadow will be switch_mm and __switch_to_xtra, and __switch_to_xtra is called shortly after switch_mm during context switch, so the cacheline is likely to be hot.

CR4 manipulation was split, seemingly at random, between direct (write_cr4) and using a helper (set/clear_in_cr4). Unfortunately, the set_in_cr4 and clear_in_cr4 helpers also poke at the boot code, which only a small subset of users actually wanted. This patch replaces all cr4 access in functions that don't leave cr4 exactly the way they found it with new helpers cr4_set_bits, cr4_clear_bits, and cr4_set_bits_and_update_boot.

The old scheme can lead to failure in certain cases - the problem is that after bumping step_size the next (non-final) iteration is only guaranteed to make available a memory block the size of what step_size was before. E.g. for a memory block [0,3004600000) we'd have: iter start end step amount 1 3004400000 30045fffff 2M 2M 2 3004000000 30043fffff 64M 4M 3 3000000000 3003ffffff 2G 64M 4 2000000000 2fffffffff 64G 64G Yet to map 64G with 4k pages (as happens e.g. under PV Xen) we need slightly over 128M, but the first three iterations made only about 70M available. The condition (new_mapped_ram_size > mapped_ram_size) for bumping step_size is just not suitable. Instead we want to bump it when we know we have enough memory available to cover a block of the new step_size. And rather than making that condition more complicated than needed, simply adjust step_size by the largest possible factor we know we can cover at that point - which is shifting it left by one less than the difference between page table level shifts. (Interestingly the original STEP_SIZE_SHIFT definition had a comment hinting at that having been the intention, just that it should have been PUD_SHIFT-PMD_SHIFT-1 instead of (PUD_SHIFT-PMD_SHIFT)/2, and of course for non-PAE 32-bit we can't really use these two constants as they're equal there.) Furthermore the comment in get_new_step_size() didn't get updated when the bottom-down mapping logic got added. Yet while an overflow (flushing step_size to zero) of the shift doesn't matter for the top-down method, it does for bottom-up because round_up(x, 0) = 0, and an upper range boundary of zero can't really work well.

Update the translation tables from cache mode to pgprot values according to the PAT settings. This enables changing the cache attributes of a PAT index in just one place without having to change at the users side.

At the moment there are a lot of places that handle setting or getting the page cache mode by treating the pgprot bits equal to the cache mode. This is only true because there are a lot of assumptions about the setup of the PAT MSR. Otherwise the cache type needs to get translated into pgprot bits and vice versa. This patch tries to prepare for that by introducing a separate type for the cache mode and adding functions to translate between those and pgprot values. To avoid too much performance penalty the translation between cache mode and pgprot values is done via tables which contain the relevant information. Write-back cache mode is hard-wired to be 0, all other modes are configurable via those tables. For large pages there are translation functions as the PAT bit is located at different positions in the ptes of 4k and large pages.

We don't have any good way to figure out what kinds of flushes are being attempted. Right now, we can try to use the vm counters, but those only tell us what we actually did with the hardware (one-by-one vs full) and don't tell us what was actually _requested_. This allows us to select out "interesting" TLB flushes that we might want to optimize (like the ranged ones) and ignore the ones that we have very little control over (the ones at context switch).

The Linux kernel cannot migrate pages used by the kernel. As a result, kernel pages cannot be hot-removed. So we cannot allocate hotpluggable memory for the kernel. In a memory hotplug system, any numa node the kernel resides in should be unhotpluggable. And for a modern server, each node could have at least 16GB memory. So memory around the kernel image is highly likely unhotpluggable. ACPI SRAT (System Resource Affinity Table) contains the memory hotplug info. But before SRAT is parsed, memblock has already started to allocate memory for the kernel. So we need to prevent memblock from doing this. So direct memory mapping page tables setup is the case. init_mem_mapping() is called before SRAT is parsed. To prevent page tables being allocated within hotpluggable memory, we will use bottom-up direction to allocate page tables from the end of kernel image to the higher memory. Note: As for allocating page tables in lower memory, TJ said: : This is an optional behavior which is triggered by a very specific kernel : boot param, which I suspect is gonna need to stick around to support : memory hotplug in the current setup unless we add another layer of address : translation to support memory hotplug. As for page tables may occupy too much lower memory if using 4K mapping (CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC and CONFIG_KMEMCHECK both disable using >4k pages), TJ said: : But as I said in the same paragraph, parsing SRAT earlier doesn't solve : the problem in itself either. Ignoring the option if 4k mapping is : required and memory consumption would be prohibitive should work, no? : Something like that would be necessary if we're gonna worry about cases : like this no matter how we implement it, but, frankly, I'm not sure this : is something worth worrying about.
