The initialization process for trampoline_cr4_features and
mmu_cr4_features was confusing. The intent is for mmu_cr4_features
and *trampoline_cr4_features to stay in sync, but
trampoline_cr4_features is NULL until setup_real_mode() runs. The
old code synchronized *trampoline_cr4_features *twice*, once in
setup_real_mode() and once in setup_arch(). It also initialized
mmu_cr4_features in setup_real_mode(), which causes the actual value
of mmu_cr4_features to potentially depend on when setup_real_mode()
is called.
With this patch, mmu_cr4_features is initialized directly in
setup_arch(), and *trampoline_cr4_features is synchronized to
mmu_cr4_features when the trampoline is set up.
After this patch, it should be safe to defer setup_real_mode().

reserve_bios_regions() is a quirk that reserves memory that we might
otherwise think is available. There's no need to run it so early,
and running it before we have the memory map initialized with its
non-quirky inputs makes it hard to make reserve_bios_regions() more
intelligent.
Move it right after we populate the memblock state.

Since commit:
52aec3308db8 ("x86/tlb: replace INVALIDATE_TLB_VECTOR by CALL_FUNCTION_VECTOR")
the TLB remote shootdown is done through call function vector. That
commit didn't take care of irq_tlb_count, which a later commit:
fd0f5869724f ("x86: Distinguish TLB shootdown interrupts from other functions call interrupts")
... tried to fix.
The fix assumes every increase of irq_tlb_count has a corresponding
increase of irq_call_count. So the irq_call_count is always bigger than
irq_tlb_count and we could substract irq_tlb_count from irq_call_count.
Unfortunately this is not true for the smp_call_function_single() case.
The IPI is only sent if the target CPU's call_single_queue is empty when
adding a csd into it in generic_exec_single. That means if two threads
are both adding flush tlb csds to the same CPU's call_single_queue, only
one IPI is sent. In other words, the irq_call_count is incremented by 1
but irq_tlb_count is incremented by 2. Over time, irq_tlb_count will be
bigger than irq_call_count and the substract will produce a very large
irq_call_count value due to overflow.
Considering that:
1) it's not worth to send more IPIs for the sake of accurate counting of
irq_call_count in generic_exec_single();
2) it's not easy to tell if the call function interrupt is for TLB
shootdown in __smp_call_function_single_interrupt().
Not to exclude TLB shootdown from call function count seems to be the
simplest fix and this patch just does that.
This bug was found by LKP's cyclic performance regression tracking recently
with the vm-scalability test suite. I have bisected to commit:
3dec0ba0be6a ("mm/rmap: share the i_mmap_rwsem")
This commit didn't do anything wrong but revealed the irq_call_count
problem. IIUC, the commit makes rwc->remap_one in rmap_walk_file
concurrent with multiple threads. When remap_one is try_to_unmap_one(),
then multiple threads could queue flush TLB to the same CPU but only
one IPI will be sent.
Since the commit was added in Linux v3.19, the counting problem only
shows up from v3.19 onwards.

A recent patch changed the format of a swap PTE.
The comment explaining the format of the swap PTE is wrong about
the bits used for the swap type field. Amusingly, the ASCII art
and the patch description are correct, but the comment itself
is wrong.
As I was looking at this, I also noticed that the
SWP_OFFSET_FIRST_BIT has an off-by-one error. This does not
really hurt anything. It just wasted a bit of space in the PTE,
giving us 2^59 bytes of addressable space in our swapfiles
instead of 2^60. But, it doesn't match with the comments, and it
wastes a bit of space, so fix it.

debug_putstr() is used to output strings without using printf-like
formatting but debug_putstr(v) is defined as early_printk(v) in
arch/x86/lib/kaslr.c.
This makes clang reports the following warning when building

Clearly QEMU is very permissive in how its PL310 model may be set up,
but the real hardware turns out to be far more particular about things
actually being correct. Fix up the DT description so that the real
thing actually boots:
- The arm,data-latency and arm,tag-latency properties need 3 cells to
be valid, otherwise we end up retaining the default 8-cycle latencies
which leads pretty quickly to lockup.
- The arm,dirty-latency property is only relevant to L210/L220, so get
rid of it.
- The cache geometry override also leads to lockup and/or general
misbehaviour. Irritatingly, the manual doesn't state the actual PL310
configuration, but based on the boardfile code and poking registers
from the Boot Monitor, it would seem to be 8 sets of 16KB ways.
With that, we can successfully boot to enjoy the fun of mismatched FPUs...

addresses.
Thierry let me know, that there is another patch (b5896f67ab3c in
linux-next) in preparation which removes all the '0,' prefixes of unit
addresses on Tegra124 and is planned to go upstream in 4.8, so
this patch will get reverted then.
But for the moment, this patch is necessary to fix current misbehaviour.

manipulation
The Memory Protection Keys "rights register" (PKRU) is
XSAVE-managed, and is saved/restored along with the FPU state.
When kernel code accesses FPU regsisters, it does a delicate
dance with preempt. Otherwise, the context switching code can
get confused as to whether the most up-to-date state is in the
registers themselves or in the XSAVE buffer.
But, PKRU is not a normal FPU register. Using it does not
generate the normal device-not-available (#NM) exceptions which
means we can not manage it lazily, and the kernel completley
disallows using lazy mode when it is enabled.
The dance with preempt *only* occurs when managing the FPU
lazily. Since we never manage PKRU lazily, we do not have to do
the dance with preempt; we can access it directly. Doing it
this way saves a ton of complicated code (and is faster too).
Further, the XSAVES reenabling failed to patch a bit of code
in fpu__xfeature_set_state() the checked for compacted buffers.
That check caused fpu__xfeature_set_state() to silently refuse to
work when the kernel is using compacted XSAVE buffers. This
broke execute-only and future pkey_mprotect() support when using
compact XSAVE buffers.
But, removing fpu__xfeature_set_state() gets rid of this issue,
in addition to the nice cleanup and speedup.
This fixes the same thing as a fix that Sai posted:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/7/25/637
The fix that he posted is a much more obviously correct, but I
think we should just do this instead.

Building an X86_64 kernel with W=1 throws a total of 9,948 lines of warnings of
this form for both 32-bit and 64-bit syscall tables. Given that the entire rest
of the build for my config only generates 8,375 lines of output, this is a big
reduction in the warnings generated.
The warnings follow this pattern:
./arch/x86/include/generated/asm/syscalls_32.h:885:21: warning: initialized field overwritten [-Woverride-init]
__SYSCALL_I386(379, compat_sys_pwritev2, )

arch/x86/entry/syscall_32.c:13:46: note: in definition of macro '__SYSCALL_I386'
#define __SYSCALL_I386(nr, sym, qual) [nr] = sym,
Since we intentionally build the syscall tables this way, ignore that one
warning in the two files.

There's a subtle preemption race on UP kernels:
Usually current->mm (and therefore mm->pgd) stays the same during the
lifetime of a task so it does not matter if a task gets preempted during
the read and write of the CR3.
But then, there is this scenario on x86-UP:
TaskA is in do_exit() and exit_mm() sets current->mm = NULL followed by:
-> mmput()
-> exit_mmap()
-> tlb_finish_mmu()
-> tlb_flush_mmu()
-> tlb_flush_mmu_tlbonly()
-> tlb_flush()
-> flush_tlb_mm_range()
-> __flush_tlb_up()
-> __flush_tlb()
-> __native_flush_tlb()
At this point current->mm is NULL but current->active_mm still points to
the "old" mm.
Let's preempt taskA _after_ native_read_cr3() by taskB. TaskB has its
own mm so CR3 has changed.
Now preempt back to taskA. TaskA has no ->mm set so it borrows taskB's
mm and so CR3 remains unchanged. Once taskA gets active it continues
where it was interrupted and that means it writes its old CR3 value
back. Everything is fine because userland won't need its memory
anymore.
Now the fun part:
Let's preempt taskA one more time and get back to taskB. This
time switch_mm() won't do a thing because oldmm (->active_mm)
is the same as mm (as per context_switch()). So we remain
with a bad CR3 / PGD and return to userland.
The next thing that happens is handle_mm_fault() with an address for
the execution of its code in userland. handle_mm_fault() realizes that
it has a PTE with proper rights so it returns doing nothing. But the
CPU looks at the wrong PGD and insists that something is wrong and
faults again. And again. And one more time…
This pagefault circle continues until the scheduler gets tired of it and
puts another task on the CPU. It gets little difficult if the task is a
RT task with a high priority. The system will either freeze or it gets
fixed by the software watchdog thread which usually runs at RT-max prio.
But waiting for the watchdog will increase the latency of the RT task
which is no good.
Fix this by disabling preemption across the critical code section.

When using if_changed, we need to add FORCE as a dependency (see
Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.txt) otherwise we don't get command line
change checking amongst other things. This has resulted in vdsos not
being rebuilt when switching between big and little endian.
The vdso64/32ld commands have to be changed around to avoid pulling
FORCE into the linker command line (code copied from x86).

When we introduced the little endian support, we added the endian flags
to CC directly using override. I don't know the history of why we did
that, I suspect no one does.
Although this mostly works, it has one bug, which is that CROSS32CC
doesn't get -mbig-endian. That means when the compiler is little endian
by default and the user is building big endian, vdso32 is incorrectly
compiled as little endian and the kernel fails to build.
Instead we can add the endian flags to cflags-y/aflags-y, and then
append those to KBUILD_CFLAGS/KBUILD_AFLAGS.
This has the advantage of being 1) less ugly, 2) the documented way of
adding flags in the arch Makefile and 3) it fixes building vdso32 with a
LE toolchain.

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.

When building with CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER=y or CONFIG_KASAN=y, put the
APIC interrupt handlers into the .irqentry.text section. This is needed
because both KASAN and function graph tracer use __irqentry_text_start and

This patch eliminates a source of imprecise APIC timer interrupts,
which imprecision may result in double interrupts or even late
interrupts.
The TSC deadline clockevent devices' configuration and registration
happens before the TSC frequency calibration is refined in
tsc_refine_calibration_work().
This results in the TSC clocksource and the TSC deadline clockevent
devices being configured with slightly different frequencies: the former
gets the refined one and the latter are configured with the inaccurate
frequency detected earlier by means of the "Fast TSC calibration using PIT".
Within the APIC code, introduce the notifier function
lapic_update_tsc_freq() which reconfigures all per-CPU TSC deadline
clockevent devices with the current tsc_khz.
Call it from the TSC code after TSC calibration refinement has happened.

clockevents frequency roundoff error
I noticed the following bug/misbehavior on certain Intel systems: with a
single task running on a NOHZ CPU on an Intel Haswell, I recognized
that I did not only get the one expected local_timer APIC interrupt, but
two per second at minimum. (!)
Further tracing showed that the first one precedes the programmed deadline
by up to ~50us and hence, it did nothing except for reprogramming the TSC
deadline clockevent device to trigger shortly thereafter again.
The reason for this is imprecise calibration, the timeout we program into
the APIC results in 'too short' timer interrupts. The core (hr)timer code
notices this (because it has a precise ktime source and sees the short
interrupt) and fixes it up by programming an additional very short
interrupt period.
This is obviously suboptimal.
The reason for the imprecise calibration is twofold, and this patch
fixes the first reason:
In setup_APIC_timer(), the registered clockevent device's frequency
is calculated by first dividing tsc_khz by TSC_DIVISOR and multiplying
it with 1000 afterwards:
(tsc_khz / TSC_DIVISOR) * 1000
The multiplication with 1000 is done for converting from kHz to Hz and the
division by TSC_DIVISOR is carried out in order to make sure that the final
result fits into an u32.
However, with the order given in this calculation, the roundoff error
introduced by the division gets magnified by a factor of 1000 by the
following multiplication.
To fix it, reversing the order of the division and the multiplication a la:
(tsc_khz * 1000) / TSC_DIVISOR
... reduces the roundoff error already.
Furthermore, if TSC_DIVISOR divides 1000, associativity holds:
(tsc_khz * 1000) / TSC_DIVISOR = tsc_khz * (1000 / TSC_DIVISOR)
and thus, the roundoff error even vanishes and the whole operation can be
carried out within 32 bits.
The powers of two that divide 1000 are 2, 4 and 8. A value of 8 for
TSC_DIVISOR still allows for TSC frequencies up to
2^32 / 10^9ns * 8 = 34.4GHz which is way larger than anything to expect
in the next years.
Thus we also replace the current TSC_DIVISOR value of 32 by 8. Reverse
the order of the divison and the multiplication in the calculation of
the registered clockevent device's frequency.

We cannot do those initializations from apply_feature_fixups() as
this function runs in a very restricted environment on 32-bit where
the kernel isn't running at its linked address and the PTRRELOC()

Instead, split them into a separtate steup_feature_keys() function
which is called in a more suitable spot on ppc32.

Both set_memory_ro() and set_memory_rw() will modify the page
attributes of at least one page, even if the numpages parameter is
zero.
The author expected that calling these functions with numpages == zero
would never happen. However with the new 444d13ff10fb ("modules: add
ro_after_init support") feature this happens frequently.
Therefore do the right thing and make these two functions return
gracefully if nothing should be done.

Although this is correct for ptrace, when generating a core dump, some
of the routines which call flush_tmregs_to_thread() are called. This
leads to a WARNing such as:

The late_alloc() PTE allocation function used by create_mapping_late()
does not call pgtable_page_ctor() on PTE pages it allocates, leaving
the per-page spinlock uninitialized.
Since generic page table manipulation code may assume that translation
table pages that are not owned by init_mm are covered by fully
constructed struct pages, the following crash may occur with the new
UEFI memory attributes table code.

The crash is due to the fact that the UEFI page tables are not owned by
init_mm, but are not covered by fully constructed struct pages.
Given that the UEFI subsystem is currently the only user of
create_mapping_late(), add an unconditional call to pgtable_page_ctor() to
late_alloc().

To limit the amount of mapped low memory, we determine a physical address
boundary based on the start of the vmalloc area using __pa().
Strictly speaking, the vmalloc area location is arbitrary and does not
necessarily corresponds to a valid physical address. For example, if
PAGE_OFFSET = 0x80000000
PHYS_OFFSET = 0x90000000
vmalloc_min = 0xf0000000
then __pa(vmalloc_min) overflows and returns a wrapped 0 when phys_addr_t
is a 32-bit type. Then the code that follows determines that the entire
physical memory is above that boundary and no low memory gets mapped at
all:
|[...]
|Machine model: Freescale i.MX51 NA04 Board
|Ignoring RAM at 0x90000000-0xb0000000 (!CONFIG_HIGHMEM)
|Consider using a HIGHMEM enabled kernel.
To avoid this problem let's make vmalloc_limit a 64-bit value all the
time and determine that boundary explicitly without using __pa().

The recent commit 599d0c954f91 ("mm, vmscan: move LRU lists to node"),
changed memory management code so that show_mem() is no longer safe to
call prior to setup_per_cpu_pageset(), as pgdat->per_cpu_nodestats will
still be NULL. This causes an oops on metag due to the call to
show_mem() from mem_init():
node_page_state_snapshot(...) + 0x48
pgdat_reclaimable(struct pglist_data * pgdat = 0x402517a0)
show_free_areas(unsigned int filter = 0) + 0x2cc
show_mem(unsigned int filter = 0) + 0x18
mem_init()
mm_init()
start_kernel() + 0x204
This wasn't a problem before with zone_reclaimable() as zone_pcp_init()
was already setting zone->pageset to &boot_pageset, via setup_arch() and
paging_init(), which happens before mm_init():
zone_pcp_init(...)
free_area_init_core(...) + 0x138
free_area_init_node(int nid = 0, ...) + 0x1a0
free_area_init_nodes(...) + 0x440
paging_init(unsigned long mem_end = 0x4fe00000) + 0x378
setup_arch(char ** cmdline_p = 0x4024e038) + 0x2b8
start_kernel() + 0x54
No other arches appear to call show_mem() during boot, and it doesn't
really add much value to the log, so lets just drop it from mem_init().

There only ever have been two host implementations of the old
s390-virtio (pre-ccw) transport: the experimental kuli userspace,
and qemu. As qemu switched its default to ccw with 2.4 (with most
users having used ccw well before that) and removed the old transport
entirely in 2.6, s390-virtio probably hasn't been in active use for
quite some time and is therefore likely to bitrot.
Let's start the slow march towards removing the code by deprecating
it.
Note that this also deprecates the early virtio console code, which
has been causing trouble in the guest without being wired up in any
relevant hypervisor code.

The generic allocation code may sometimes decide to assign a prefetchable
64-bit BAR to the M32 window. In fact it may also decide to allocate
a 64-bit non-prefetchable BAR to the M64 one ! So using the resource
flags as a test to decide which window was used for PE allocation is
just wrong and leads to insane PE numbers.
Instead, compare the addresses to figure it out.

When machine check occurs with MSR(RI=0), it means MC interrupt is
unrecoverable and kernel goes down to panic path. But the console
message still shows it as recovered. This patch fixes the MCE console
messages.
