Quark SoC X1000 advertises Page Global Enable for it's Translation Lookaside Buffer via cpuid. The silicon does not in fact support PGE and hence will not flush the TLB when CR4.PGE is rewritten. The Quark documentation makes clear the necessity to instead rewrite CR3 in order to flush any TLB entries, irrespective of the state of CR4.PGE or an individual PTE.PGE See Intel Quark Core DevMan_001.pdf section 6.4.11 In setup.c setup_arch() the code will load_cr3() and then do a __flush_tlb_all(). On Quark the entire TLB will be flushed at the load_cr3(). The __flush_tlb_all() have no effect and can be safely ignored. Later on in the boot process we switch off the flag for cpu_has_pge() which means that subsequent calls to __flush_tlb_all() will call __flush_tlb() not __flush_tlb_global() flushing the TLB in the correct way via load_cr3() not CR4.PGE rewrite This patch documents the behaviour of flushing the TLB for Quark in setup_arch() Comment text suggested by Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: NBryan O'Donoghue <pure.logic@nexus-software.ie> Cc: davej@redhat.com Cc: hmh@hmh.eng.br Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1412641189-12415-2-git-send-email-pure.logic@nexus-software.ieSigned-off-by: NThomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

Currently, "cma=" kernel parameter is used to specify the size of CMA, but we can't specify where it is located. We want to locate CMA below 4GB for devices only supporting 32-bit addressing on 64-bit systems without iommu. This enables to specify the placement of CMA by extending "cma=" kernel parameter. Examples: 1. locate 64MB CMA below 4GB by "cma=64M@0-4G" 2. locate 64MB CMA exact at 512MB by "cma=64M@512M" Note that the DMA contiguous memory allocator on x86 assumes that page_address() works for the pages to allocate. So this change requires to limit end address of contiguous memory area upto max_pfn_mapped to prevent from locating it on highmem area by the argument of dma_contiguous_reserve().

Add the Kconfig option and bump the kernel header version so that boot loaders can check whether the handover code is available if they want. The xloadflags field in the bzImage header is also updated to reflect that the kernel supports both entry points by setting both of XLF_EFI_HANDOVER_32 and XLF_EFI_HANDOVER_64 when CONFIG_EFI_MIXED=y. XLF_CAN_BE_LOADED_ABOVE_4G is disabled so that the kernel text is guaranteed to be addressable with 32-bits. Note that no boot loaders should be using the bits set in xloadflags to decide which entry point to jump to. The entire scheme is based on the concept that 32-bit bootloaders always jump to ->handover_offset and 64-bit loaders always jump to ->handover_offset + 512. We set both bits merely to inform the boot loader that it's safe to use the native handover offset even if the machine type in the PE/COFF header claims otherwise.

As we grow support for more EFI architectures they're going to want the ability to query which EFI features are available on the running system. Instead of storing this information in an architecture-specific place, stick it in the global 'struct efi', which is already the central location for EFI state. While we're at it, let's change the return value of efi_enabled() to be bool and replace all references to 'facility' with 'feature', which is the usual word used to describe the attributes of the running system.

Dave reported big numa system booting is broken. It turns out that commit 5b6e5295 ("x86: memblock: set current limit to max low memory address") sets the limit to low wrongly. max_low_pfn_mapped is different from max_pfn_mapped. max_low_pfn_mapped is always under 4G. That will memblock_alloc_nid all go under 4G. Revert 5b6e5295 to fix a no-boot regression which was triggered by 457ff1de ("lib/swiotlb.c: use memblock apis for early memory allocations").

Currently e820_reserve_setup_data() is called before parsing early params, it works in normal case. But for memmap=exactmap, the final memory ranges are created after parsing memmap= cmdline params, so the previous e820_reserve_setup_data() has no effect. For example, setup_data ranges will still be marked as normal system ram, thus when later sysfs driver ioremap them kernel will warn about mapping normal ram. This patch fix it by moving the e820_reserve_setup_data() callback after parsing early params so they can be set as reserved ranges and later ioremap will be fine with it.

Add a new setup_data type SETUP_EFI for kexec use. Passing the saved fw_vendor, runtime, config tables and EFI runtime mappings. When entering virtual mode, directly mapping the EFI runtime regions which we passed in previously. And skip the step to call SetVirtualAddressMap(). Specially for HP z420 workstation we need save the smbios physical address. The kernel boot sequence proceeds in the following order. Step 2 requires efi.smbios to be the physical address. However, I found that on HP z420 EFI system table has a virtual address of SMBIOS in step 1. Hence, we need set it back to the physical address with the smbios in efi_setup_data. (When it is still the physical address, it simply sets the same value.) 1. efi_init() - Set efi.smbios from EFI system table 2. dmi_scan_machine() - Temporary map efi.smbios to access SMBIOS table 3. efi_enter_virtual_mode() - Map EFI ranges Tested on ovmf+qemu, lenovo thinkpad, a dell laptop and an HP z420 workstation.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in commit 5e427ec2 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time") is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created with improper use of the various __init prefixes. After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone, we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h. Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c) are flagged as __cpuinit -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings. As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid of these warnings. In any case, they are temporary and harmless. This removes all the arch/x86 uses of the __cpuinit macros from all C files. x86 only had the one __CPUINIT used in assembly files, and it wasn't paired off with a .previous or a __FINIT, so we can delete it directly w/o any corresponding additional change there.

x86 and ia64 can acquire extra hardware identification information from DMI and print it along with task dumps; however, the usage isn't consistent. * x86 show_regs() collects vendor, product and board strings and print them out with PID, comm and utsname. Some of the information is printed again later in the same dump. * warn_slowpath_common() explicitly accesses the DMI board and prints it out with "Hardware name:" label. This applies to both x86 and ia64 but is irrelevant on all other archs. * ia64 doesn't show DMI information on other non-WARN dumps. This patch introduces arch-specific hardware description used by dump_stack(). It can be set by calling dump_stack_set_arch_desc() during boot and, if exists, printed out in a separate line with "Hardware name:" label. dmi_set_dump_stack_arch_desc() is added which sets arch-specific description from DMI data. It uses dmi_ids_string[] which is set from dmi_present() used for DMI debug message. It is superset of the information x86 show_regs() is using. The function is called from x86 and ia64 boot code right after dmi_scan_machine(). This makes the explicit DMI handling in warn_slowpath_common() unnecessary. Removed. show_regs() isn't yet converted to use generic debug information printing and this patch doesn't remove the duplicate DMI handling in x86 show_regs(). The next patch will unify show_regs() handling and remove the duplication. An example WARN dump follows.

And now have to append crashkernel_low=Y in first kernel to make kdump work. We have now modified crashkernel=X to allocate memory beyong 4G (if available) and do not allocate low range for crashkernel if the user does not specify that with crashkernel_low=Y. This causes regression if iommu is not enabled. Without iommu, swiotlb needs to be setup in first 4G and there is no low memory available to second kernel. Set crashkernel_low automatically if the user does not specify that. For system that does support IOMMU with kdump properly, user could specify crashkernel_low=0 to save that 72M low ram. -v3: add swiotlb_size() according to Konrad. -v4: add comments what 8M is for according to hpa. also update more crashkernel_low= in kernel-parameters.txt -v5: update changelog according to Vivek. -v6: Change description about swiotlb referring according to HATAYAMA.

The commit 27be4570 ('x86 idle: remove 32-bit-only "no-hlt" parameter, hlt_works_ok flag') removed the hlt_works_ok flag from struct cpuinfo_x86, but boot_cpu_data and new_cpu_data initializers were not changed causing setting f00f_bug flag, instead of fdiv_bug. If CONFIG_X86_F00F_BUG is not set the f00f_bug flag is never cleared. To avoid such problems in future C99-style initialization is now used.

Need to consider sequence is: numaq, srat, amd, dummy. and make fall back path working. 2. simply split acpi_numa_init to early_parse_srat. a. that early_parse_srat is NOT called for ia64, so you break ia64. b. for (i = 0; i < MAX_LOCAL_APIC; i++) set_apicid_to_node(i, NUMA_NO_NODE) still left in numa_init. So it will just clear result from early_parse_srat. it should be moved before that.... c. it breaks ACPI_TABLE_OVERIDE...as the acpi table scan is moved early before override from INITRD is settled. 3. that patch TITLE is total misleading, there is NO x86 in the title, but it changes critical x86 code. It caused x86 guys did not pay attention to find the problem early. Those patches really should be routed via tip/x86/mm. 4. after that commit, following range can not use movable ram: a. real_mode code.... well..funny, legacy Node0 [0,1M) could be hot-removed? b. initrd... it will be freed after booting, so it could be on movable... c. crashkernel for kdump...: looks like we can not put kdump kernel above 4G anymore. d. init_mem_mapping: can not put page table high anymore. e. initmem_init: vmemmap can not be high local node anymore. That is not good. If node is hotplugable, the mem related range like page table and vmemmap could be on the that node without problem and should be on that node. We have workaround patch that could fix some problems, but some can not be fixed. So just remove that offending commit and related ones including: f7210e6c ("mm/memblock.c: use CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP to protect movablecore_map in memblock_overlaps_region().") 01a178a9 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: support getting hotplug info from SRAT") 27168d38 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: extend movablemem_map ranges to the end of node") e8d19552 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: parse SRAT before memblock is ready") fb06bc8e ("page_alloc: bootmem limit with movablecore_map") 42f47e27 ("page_alloc: make movablemem_map have higher priority") 6981ec31 ("page_alloc: introduce zone_movable_limit[] to keep movable limit for nodes") 34b71f1e ("page_alloc: add movable_memmap kernel parameter") 4d59a751 ("x86: get pg_data_t's memory from other node") Later we should have patches that will make sure kernel put page table and vmemmap on local node ram instead of push them down to node0. Also need to find way to put other kernel used ram to local node ram.

On linux, the pages used by kernel could not be migrated. As a result, if a memory range is used by kernel, it cannot be hot-removed. So if we want to hot-remove memory, we should prevent kernel from using it. The way now used to prevent this is specify a memory range by movablemem_map boot option and set it as ZONE_MOVABLE. But when the system is booting, memblock will allocate memory, and reserve the memory for kernel. And before we parse SRAT, and know the node memory ranges, memblock is working. And it may allocate memory in ranges to be set as ZONE_MOVABLE. This memory can be used by kernel, and never be freed. So, let's parse SRAT before memblock is called first. And it is early enough. The first call of memblock_find_in_range_node() is in: setup_arch() |-->setup_real_mode() so, this patch add a function early_parse_srat() to parse SRAT, and call it before setup_real_mode() is called. NOTE: 1) early_parse_srat() is called before numa_init(), and has initialized numa_meminfo. So DO NOT clear numa_nodes_parsed in numa_init() and DO NOT zero numa_meminfo in numa_init(), otherwise we will lose memory numa info. 2) I don't know why using count of memory affinities parsed from SRAT as a return value in original acpi_numa_init(). So I add a static variable srat_mem_cnt to remember this count and use it as the return value of the new acpi_numa_init() [mhocko@suse.cz: parse SRAT before memblock is ready fix] Signed-off-by: NTang Chen <tangchen@cn.fujitsu.com> Reviewed-by: NWen Congyang <wency@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Jiang Liu <jiang.liu@huawei.com> Cc: Jianguo Wu <wujianguo@huawei.com> Cc: Kamezawa Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: Wu Jianguo <wujianguo@huawei.com> Cc: Yasuaki Ishimatsu <isimatu.yasuaki@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: "H.

Move the reservation of low memory, except for the 4K which actually does belong to the BIOS, later in the initialization; in particular, after we have already reserved the trampoline. The current code locates the trampoline as high as possible, so by deferring the allocation we will still be able to reserve as much memory as is possible. This allows us to run with reservelow=640k without getting a crash on system startup. Signed-off-by: NH.

Originally 'efi_enabled' indicated whether a kernel was booted from EFI firmware. Over time its semantics have changed, and it now indicates whether or not we are booted on an EFI machine with bit-native firmware, e.g. 64-bit kernel with 64-bit firmware. The immediate motivation for this patch is the bug report at, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/1040557 which details how running a platform driver on an EFI machine that is designed to run under BIOS can cause the machine to become bricked. Also, the following report, https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47121 details how running said driver can also cause Machine Check Exceptions. Drivers need a new means of detecting whether they're running on an EFI machine, as sadly the expression, if (!efi_enabled) hasn't been a sufficient condition for quite some time. Users actually want to query 'efi_enabled' for different reasons - what they really want access to is the list of available EFI facilities. For instance, the x86 reboot code needs to know whether it can invoke the ResetSystem() function provided by the EFI runtime services, while the ACPI OSL code wants to know whether the EFI config tables were mapped successfully. There are also checks in some of the platform driver code to simply see if they're running on an EFI machine (which would make it a bad idea to do BIOS-y things). This patch is a prereq for the samsung-laptop fix patch.

They are the same, and we could move them out from head32/64.c to setup.c. We are using memblock, and it could handle overlapping properly, so we don't need to reserve some at first to hold the location, and just need to make sure we reserve them before we are using memblock to find free mem to use.

During kdump kernel's booting stage, it need to find low ram for swiotlb buffer when system does not support intel iommu/dmar remapping. kexed-tools is appending memmap=exactmap and range from /proc/iomem with "Crash kernel", and that range is above 4G for 64bit after boot protocol 2.12. We need to add another range in /proc/iomem like "Crash kernel low", so kexec-tools could find that info and append to kdump kernel command line. Try to reserve some under 4G if the normal "Crash kernel" is above 4G. User could specify the size with crashkernel_low=XX[KMG]. -v2: fix warning that is found by Fengguang's test robot. -v3: move out get_mem_size change to another patch, to solve compiling warning that is found by Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> -v4: user must specify crashkernel_low if system does not support intel or amd iommu.
