      x86: Export x86 boot_params to sysfs · 5039e316
      Dave Young 提交于
      kexec-tools use boot_params for getting the 1st kernel hardware_subarch,
      the kexec kernel EFI runtime support also needs to read the old efi_info
      from boot_params. Currently it exists in debugfs which is not a good
      place for such infomation. Per HPA, we should avoid "sploit debugfs".
      
      In this patch /sys/kernel/boot_params are exported, also the setup_data is
      exported as a subdirectory. kexec-tools is using debugfs for hardware_subarch
      for a long time now so we're not removing it yet.
      
      Structure is like below:
      
      /sys/kernel/boot_params
      |__ data                /* boot_params in binary*/
      |__ setup_data
      |   |__ 0               /* the first setup_data node */
      |   |   |__ data        /* setup_data node 0 in binary*/
      |   |   |__ type        /* setup_data type of setup_data node 0, hex string */
      [snip]
      |__ version             /* boot protocal version (in hex, "0x" prefixed)*/

      The EFI FB quirks from efifb.c are useful for simple-framebuffer devices

      x86: provide platform-devices for boot-framebuffers · e3263ab3
      David Herrmann 提交于
      The current situation regarding boot-framebuffers (VGA, VESA/VBE, EFI) on
      x86 causes troubles when loading multiple fbdev drivers. The global
      "struct screen_info" does not provide any state-tracking about which
      drivers use the FBs. request_mem_region() theoretically works, but
      unfortunately vesafb/efifb ignore it due to quirks for broken boards.
      
      Avoid this by creating a platform framebuffer devices with a pointer
      to the "struct screen_info" as platform-data. Drivers can now create
      platform-drivers and the driver-core will refuse multiple drivers being
      active simultaneously.
      
      We keep the screen_info available for backwards-compatibility. Drivers
      can be converted in follow-up patches.
      
      Different devices are created for VGA/VESA/EFI FBs to allow multiple
      drivers to be loaded on distro kernels. We create:
       - "vesa-framebuffer" for VBE/VESA graphics FBs
       - "efi-framebuffer" for EFI FBs
       - "platform-framebuffer" for everything else
      This allows to load vesafb, efifb and others simultaneously and each
      picks up only the supported FB types.
      
      Apart from platform-framebuffer devices, this also introduces a
      compatibility option for "simple-framebuffer" drivers which recently got
      introduced for OF based systems. If CONFIG_X86_SYSFB is selected, we
      try to match the screen_info against a simple-framebuffer supported
      format. If we succeed, we create a "simple-framebuffer" device instead
      of a platform-framebuffer.
      This allows to reuse the simplefb.c driver across architectures and also
      to introduce a SimpleDRM driver. There is no need to have vesafb.c,
      efifb.c, simplefb.c and more just to have architecture specific quirks
      in their setup-routines.
      
      Instead, we now move the architecture specific quirks into x86-setup and
      provide a generic simple-framebuffer. For backwards-compatibility (if
      strange formats are used), we still allow vesafb/efifb to be loaded
      simultaneously and pick up all remaining devices.

      x86, trace: Add irq vector tracepoints · cf910e83
      Seiji Aguchi 提交于
      [Purpose of this patch]
      
      As Vaibhav explained in the thread below, tracepoints for irq vectors
      are useful.
      
      http://www.spinics.net/lists/mm-commits/msg85707.html
      
      <snip>
      The current interrupt traces from irq_handler_entry and irq_handler_exit
      provide when an interrupt is handled.  They provide good data about when
      the system has switched to kernel space and how it affects the currently
      running processes.
      
      There are some IRQ vectors which trigger the system into kernel space,
      which are not handled in generic IRQ handlers.  Tracing such events gives
      us the information about IRQ interaction with other system events.
      
      The trace also tells where the system is spending its time.  We want to
      know which cores are handling interrupts and how they are affecting other
      processes in the system.  Also, the trace provides information about when
      the cores are idle and which interrupts are changing that state.
      <snip>
      
      On the other hand, my usecase is tracing just local timer event and
      getting a value of instruction pointer.
      
      I suggested to add an argument local timer event to get instruction pointer before.
      But there is another way to get it with external module like systemtap.
      So, I don't need to add any argument to irq vector tracepoints now.
      
      [Patch Description]
      
      Vaibhav's patch shared a trace point ,irq_vector_entry/irq_vector_exit, in all events.
      But there is an above use case to trace specific irq_vector rather than tracing all events.
      In this case, we are concerned about overhead due to unwanted events.
      
      So, add following tracepoints instead of introducing irq_vector_entry/exit.
      so that we can enable them independently.
         - local_timer_vector
         - reschedule_vector
         - call_function_vector
         - call_function_single_vector
         - irq_work_entry_vector
         - error_apic_vector
         - thermal_apic_vector
         - threshold_apic_vector
         - spurious_apic_vector
         - x86_platform_ipi_vector
      
      Also, introduce a logic switching IDT at enabling/disabling time so that a time penalty
      makes a zero when tracepoints are disabled. Detailed explanations are as follows.
       - Create trace irq handlers with entering_irq()/exiting_irq().
       - Create a new IDT, trace_idt_table, at boot time by adding a logic to
         _set_gate(). It is just a copy of original idt table.
       - Register the new handlers for tracpoints to the new IDT by introducing
         macros to alloc_intr_gate() called at registering time of irq_vector handlers.
       - Add checking, whether irq vector tracing is on/off, into load_current_idt().
         This has to be done below debug checking for these reasons.
         - Switching to debug IDT may be kicked while tracing is enabled.
         - On the other hands, switching to trace IDT is kicked only when debugging
           is disabled.
      
      In addition, the new IDT is created only when CONFIG_TRACING is enabled to avoid being
      used for other purposes.

      perf: Unified API to record selective sets of arch registers · c5e63197
      Jiri Olsa 提交于
      This brings a new API to help the selective dump of registers on event
      sampling, and its implementation for x86 arch.
      
      Added HAVE_PERF_REGS config option to determine if the architecture
      provides perf registers ABI.
      
      The information about desired registers will be passed in u64 mask.
      It's up to the architecture to map the registers into the mask bits.
      
      For the x86 arch implementation, both 32 and 64 bit registers bits are
      defined within single enum to ensure 64 bit system can provide register
      dump for compat task if needed in the future.

      MCA: delete all remaining traces of microchannel bus support. · bb8187d3
      Paul Gortmaker 提交于
      Hardware with MCA bus is limited to 386 and 486 class machines
      that are now 20+ years old and typically with less than 32MB
      of memory.  A quick search on the internet, and you see that
      even the MCA hobbyist/enthusiast community has lost interest
      in the early 2000 era and never really even moved ahead from
      the 2.4 kernels to the 2.6 series.
      
      This deletes anything remaining related to CONFIG_MCA from core
      kernel code and from the x86 architecture.  There is no point in
      carrying this any further into the future.
      
      One complication to watch for is inadvertently scooping up
      stuff relating to machine check, since there is overlap in
      the TLA name space (e.g. arch/x86/boot/mca.c).

      uprobes, mm, x86: Add the ability to install and remove uprobes breakpoints · 2b144498
      Srikar Dronamraju 提交于
      Add uprobes support to the core kernel, with x86 support.
      
      This commit adds the kernel facilities, the actual uprobes
      user-space ABI and perf probe support comes in later commits.
      
      General design:
      
      Uprobes are maintained in an rb-tree indexed by inode and offset
      (the offset here is from the start of the mapping). For a unique
      (inode, offset) tuple, there can be at most one uprobe in the
      rb-tree.
      
      Since the (inode, offset) tuple identifies a unique uprobe, more
      than one user may be interested in the same uprobe. This provides
      the ability to connect multiple 'consumers' to the same uprobe.
      
      Each consumer defines a handler and a filter (optional). The
      'handler' is run every time the uprobe is hit, if it matches the
      'filter' criteria.
      
      The first consumer of a uprobe causes the breakpoint to be
      inserted at the specified address and subsequent consumers are
      appended to this list.  On subsequent probes, the consumer gets
      appended to the existing list of consumers. The breakpoint is
      removed when the last consumer unregisters. For all other
      unregisterations, the consumer is removed from the list of
      consumers.
      
      Given a inode, we get a list of the mms that have mapped the
      inode. Do the actual registration if mm maps the page where a
      probe needs to be inserted/removed.
      
      We use a temporary list to walk through the vmas that map the
      inode.
      
      - The number of maps that map the inode, is not known before we
        walk the rmap and keeps changing.
      - extending vm_area_struct wasn't recommended, it's a
        size-critical data structure.
      - There can be more than one maps of the inode in the same mm.
      
      We add callbacks to the mmap methods to keep an eye on text vmas
      that are of interest to uprobes.  When a vma of interest is mapped,
      we insert the breakpoint at the right address.
      
      Uprobe works by replacing the instruction at the address defined
      by (inode, offset) with the arch specific breakpoint
      instruction. We save a copy of the original instruction at the
      uprobed address.
      
      This is needed for:
      
       a. executing the instruction out-of-line (xol).
       b. instruction analysis for any subsequent fixups.
       c. restoring the instruction back when the uprobe is unregistered.
      
      We insert or delete a breakpoint instruction, and this
      breakpoint instruction is assumed to be the smallest instruction
      available on the platform. For fixed size instruction platforms
      this is trivially true, for variable size instruction platforms
      the breakpoint instruction is typically the smallest (often a
      single byte).
      
      Writing the instruction is done by COWing the page and changing
      the instruction during the copy, this even though most platforms
      allow atomic writes of the breakpoint instruction. This also
      mirrors the behaviour of a ptrace() memory write to a PRIVATE
      file map.
      
      The core worker is derived from KSM's replace_page() logic.
      
      In essence, similar to KSM:
      
       a. allocate a new page and copy over contents of the page that
          has the uprobed vaddr
       b. modify the copy and insert the breakpoint at the required
          address
       c. switch the original page with the copy containing the
          breakpoint
       d. flush page tables.
      
      replace_page() is being replicated here because of some minor
      changes in the type of pages and also because Hugh Dickins had
      plans to improve replace_page() for KSM specific work.
      
      Instruction analysis on x86 is based on instruction decoder and
      determines if an instruction can be probed and determines the
      necessary fixups after singlestep.  Instruction analysis is done
      at probe insertion time so that we avoid having to repeat the
      same analysis every time a probe is hit.
      
      A lot of code here is due to the improvement/suggestions/inputs
      from Peter Zijlstra.
      
      Changelog:
      
      (v10):
       - Add code to clear REX.B prefix as suggested by Denys Vlasenko
         and Masami Hiramatsu.

      (v7):
      
       Handle comments from Peter Zijlstra:
      
       - Dont take reference to inode. (expect inode to uprobe_register to be sane).
       - Use PTR_ERR to set the return value.
       - No need to take reference to inode.
       - use PTR_ERR to return error value.

       - Uses read_mapping_page instead of grab_cache_page so that the pages
         have valid content.
       - pass NULL to get_user_pages for the task parameter.
       - call SetPageUptodate on the new page allocated in write_opcode.
       - fix leaking a reference to the new page under certain conditions.

      x86, NMI: Add NMI IPI selftest · 99e8b9ca
      Don Zickus 提交于
      The previous patch modified the stop cpus path to use NMI
      instead of IRQ as the way to communicate to the other cpus to
      shutdown.  There were some concerns that various machines may
      have problems with using an NMI IPI.
      
      This patch creates a selftest to check if NMI is working at
      boot. The idea is to help catch any issues before the machine
      panics and we learn the hard way.
      
      Loosely based on the locking-selftest.c file, this separate file
      runs a couple of simple tests and reports the results.  The
      output looks like:
      
      ...
      Brought up 4 CPUs
      ----------------
      | NMI testsuite:
      --------------------
        remote IPI:  ok  |
         local IPI:  ok  |
      --------------------
      Good, all   2 testcases passed! |
      ---------------------------------
      Total of 4 processors activated (21330.61 BogoMIPS).

      x86: Generate system call tables and unistd_*.h from tables · 303395ac
      H. Peter Anvin 提交于
      Generate system call tables and unistd_*.h automatically from the
      tables in arch/x86/syscalls.  All other information, like NR_syscalls,
      is auto-generated, some of which is in asm-offsets_*.c.
      
      This allows us to keep all the system call information in one place,
      and allows for kernel space and user space to see different
      information; this is currently used for the ia32 system call numbers
      when building the 64-bit kernel, but will be used by the x32 ABI in
      the near future.
      
      This also removes some gratuitious differences between i386, x86-64
      and ia32; in particular, now all system call tables are generated with
      the same mechanism.

      x86-64: Emulate legacy vsyscalls · 5cec93c2
      Andy Lutomirski 提交于
      There's a fair amount of code in the vsyscall page.  It contains
      a syscall instruction (in the gettimeofday fallback) and who
      knows what will happen if an exploit jumps into the middle of
      some other code.
      
      Reduce the risk by replacing the vsyscalls with short magic
      incantations that cause the kernel to emulate the real
      vsyscalls. These incantations are useless if entered in the
      middle.
      
      This causes vsyscalls to be a little more expensive than real
      syscalls.  Fortunately sensible programs don't use them.
      The only exception is time() which is still called by glibc
      through the vsyscall - but calling time() millions of times
      per second is not sensible. glibc has this fixed in the
      development tree.
      
      This patch is not perfect: the vread_tsc and vread_hpet
      functions are still at a fixed address.  Fixing that might
      involve making alternative patching work in the vDSO.

      x86: Put back -pg to tsc.o and add no GCOV to vread_tsc_64.o · 89e1be50
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      The commit 44259b1a
          Author: Andy Lutomirski <luto@MIT.EDU>
          x86-64: Move vread_tsc into a new file with sensible options
      
      Removed the -pg from tsc.o which caused the function graph tracer
      to go into an infinite function call recursion as it uses the tsc
      internally outside its recursion protection, thus tracing the tsc
      breaks the function graph tracer.
      
      This commit also added the file vread_tsc_64.c that gets used
      by vdso but failed to prevent GCOV from monkeying with it,
      causing userspace to try to access kernel data when GCOV was
      enabled.
      
      Thanks to Thomas Gleixner for pointing out GCOV as the likely
      culprit that added strange kernel accesses into the vread_tsc()
      call.

      x86: Introduce pci_map_biosrom() · 5d94e81f

      The isci driver needs to retrieve its preboot OROM image which contains
      necessary runtime parameters like platform specific sas addresses and
      phy configuration.  There is no ROM BAR associated with this area,
      instead we will need to scan legacy expansion ROM space.
      
      1/ Promote the probe_roms_32 implementation to x86-64
      2/ Add a facility to find and map an adapter rom by pci device (according to
         PCI Firmware Specification Revision 3.0)

      x86: Add device tree support · da6b737b
      Sebastian Andrzej Siewior 提交于
      This patch adds minimal support for device tree on x86. The device
      tree blob is passed to the kernel via setup_data which requires at
      least boot protocol 2.09.
      
      Memory size, restricted memory regions, boot arguments are gathered
      the traditional way so things like cmd_line are just here to let the
      code compile.
      
      The current plan is use the device tree as an extension and to gather
      information which can not be enumerated and would have to be hardcoded
      otherwise. This includes things like 
         - which devices are on this I2C/SPI bus?
         - how are the interrupts wired to IO APIC?
         - where could my hpet be?
