x86/mm: Create a workarea in the kernel for SME early encryption
In order for the kernel to be encrypted "in place" during boot, a workarea outside of the kernel must be used. This SME workarea used during early encryption of the kernel is situated on a 2MB boundary after the end of the kernel text, data, etc. sections (_end). This works well during initial boot of a compressed kernel because of the relocation used for decompression of the kernel. But when performing a kexec boot, there's a chance that the SME workarea may not be mapped by the kexec pagetables or that some of the other data used by kexec could exist in this range. Create a section for SME in vmlinux.lds.S. Position it after "_end", which is after "__end_of_kernel_reserve", so that the memory will be reclaimed during boot and since this area is all zeroes, it compresses well. This new section will be part of the kernel image, so kexec will account for it in pagetable mappings and placement of data after the kernel. Here's an example of a kernel size without and with the SME section: without: vmlinux: 36,501,616 bzImage: 6,497,344 100000000-47f37ffff : System RAM 1e4000000-1e47677d4 : Kernel code (0x7677d4) 1e47677d5-1e4e2e0bf : Kernel data (0x6c68ea) 1e5074000-1e5372fff : Kernel bss (0x2fefff) with: vmlinux: 44,419,408 bzImage: 6,503,136 880000000-c7ff7ffff : System RAM 8cf000000-8cf7677d4 : Kernel code (0x7677d4) 8cf7677d5-8cfe2e0bf : Kernel data (0x6c68ea) 8d0074000-8d0372fff : Kernel bss (0x2fefff) Signed-off-by: Tom Lendacky <thomas.lendacky@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Baoquan He <bhe@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@intel.com> Tested-by: Lianbo Jiang <lijiang@redhat.com> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: Brijesh Singh <brijesh.singh@amd.com> Cc: "H.
