Convert Linux PAT entries into Xen ones when constructing ptes. Linux doesn't use _PAGE_PAT for ptes, so the only difference in the first 4 entries is that Linux uses _PAGE_PWT for WC, whereas Xen (and default) use it for WT. xen_pte_val does the inverse conversion. We hard-code assumptions about Linux's current PAT layout, but a warning on the wrmsr to MSR_IA32_CR_PAT should point out any problems. If necessary we could go to a more general table-based conversion between Linux and Xen PAT entries. hugetlbfs poses a problem at the moment, the x86 architecture uses the same flag for _PAGE_PAT and _PAGE_PSE, which changes meaning depending on which pagetable level we're using. At the moment this should be OK so long as nobody tries to do a pte_val on a hugetlbfs pte. Signed-off-by: NJeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com>

x86 smp_ops now has a new op, stop_other_cpus which takes a parameter "wait" this allows the caller to specify if it wants to stop until all the cpus have processed the stop IPI. This is required specifically for the kexec case where we should wait for all the cpus to be stopped before starting the new kernel. We now wait for the cpus to stop in all cases except for panic/kdump where we expect things to be broken and we are doing our best to make things work anyway.

xen_sched_clock only counts unstolen time. In principle this should be useful to the Linux scheduler so that it knows how much time a process actually consumed. But in practice this doesn't work very well as the scheduler expects the sched_clock time to be synchronized between cpus. It also uses sched_clock to measure the time a task spends sleeping, in which case "unstolen time" isn't meaningful. So just use plain xen_clocksource_read to return wallclock nanoseconds for sched_clock. Signed-off-by: NJeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com>

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

There's a path in the pagefault code where the kernel deliberately breaks its own locking rules by kmapping a high pte page without holding the pagetable lock (in at least page_check_address).

Under Xen 64 bit guests actually run their kernel in ring 3, however the hypervisor takes care of squashing descriptor the RPLs transparently (in order to allow them to continue to differentiate between user and kernel space CS using the RPL). Therefore the Xen paravirt backend should use RPL==0 instead of 1 (or 3). Using RPL==1 causes generic arch code to take incorrect code paths because it uses "testl $3, <CS>, je foo" type tests for a userspace CS and this considers 1==userspace. This issue was previously masked because get_kernel_rpl() was omitted when setting CS in kernel_thread(). This was fixed when kernel_thread() was unified with 32 bit in f443ff42.

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.

-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. [ Impact: allow Xen booting with stack-protector enabled ] Signed-off-by: NJeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com>

For some reason, the _safe MSR functions returned -EFAULT, not -EIO. However, the only user which cares about the return code as anything other than a boolean is the MSR driver, which wants -EIO. Change it to -EIO across the board. Signed-off-by: NH.

TSC calibration is modified by the vmware hypervisor and paravirt by separate means. Moorestown wants to add its own calibration routine as well. So make calibrate_tsc a proper x86_init_ops function and override it by paravirt or by the early setup of the vmware hypervisor. Signed-off-by: NThomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
