x86/trap: Remove useless declaration

2019-01-29T21:09:12+00:00

There is no early_trap_pf_init() implementation, hence remove this useless
declaration.

treewide: remove current_text_addr

2018-10-31T15:54:12+00:00

Prefer _THIS_IP_ defined in linux/kernel.h.

Most definitions of current_text_addr were the same as _THIS_IP_, but
a few archs had inline assembly instead.

This patch removes the final call site of current_text_addr, making all
of the definitions dead code.

x86/cpu: Create Hygon Dhyana architecture support file

2018-09-27T14:14:05+00:00

Add x86 architecture support for a new processor: Hygon Dhyana Family
18h. Carve out initialization code needed by Dhyana into a separate
compilation unit.

To identify Hygon Dhyana CPU, add a new vendor type X86_VENDOR_HYGON.

Since Dhyana uses AMD functionality to a large degree, select
CPU_SUP_AMD which provides that functionality.

 [ bp: drop explicit license statement as it has an SPDX tag already. ]

x86/entry/64: Use the TSS sp2 slot for SYSCALL/SYSRET scratch space

2018-09-08T09:20:11+00:00

In the non-trampoline SYSCALL64 path, a percpu variable is used to
temporarily store the user RSP value.

Instead of a separate variable, use the otherwise unused sp2 slot in the
TSS.  This will improve cache locality, as the sp1 slot is already used in
the same code to find the kernel stack.  It will also simplify a future
change to make the non-trampoline path work in PTI mode.

x86/speculation/l1tf: Increase l1tf memory limit for Nehalem+

2018-08-27T08:29:14+00:00

On Nehalem and newer core CPUs the CPU cache internally uses 44 bits
physical address space. The L1TF workaround is limited by this internal
cache address width, and needs to have one bit free there for the
mitigation to work.

Older client systems report only 36bit physical address space so the range
check decides that L1TF is not mitigated for a 36bit phys/32GB system with
some memory holes.

But since these actually have the larger internal cache width this warning
is bogus because it would only really be needed if the system had more than
43bits of memory.

Add a new internal x86_cache_bits field. Normally it is the same as the
physical bits field reported by CPUID, but for Nehalem and newerforce it to
be at least 44bits.

Change the L1TF memory size warning to use the new cache_bits field to
avoid bogus warnings and remove the bogus comment about memory size.

x86/speculation/l1tf: Fix off-by-one error when warning that system has too much RAM

2018-08-24T07:51:14+00:00

Two users have reported [1] that they have an "extremely unlikely" system
with more than MAX_PA/2 memory and L1TF mitigation is not effective. In
fact it's a CPU with 36bits phys limit (64GB) and 32GB memory, but due to
holes in the e820 map, the main region is almost 500MB over the 32GB limit:

[    0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000000100000000-0x000000081effffff] usable

Suggestions to use 'mem=32G' to enable the L1TF mitigation while losing the
500MB revealed, that there's an off-by-one error in the check in
l1tf_select_mitigation().

l1tf_pfn_limit() returns the last usable pfn (inclusive) and the range
check in the mitigation path does not take this into account.

Instead of amending the range check, make l1tf_pfn_limit() return the first
PFN which is over the limit which is less error prone. Adjust the other
users accordingly.
