mm/pkeys, x86, powerpc: Display pkey in smaps if arch supports pkeys

2018-05-09T01:51:49+00:00

Currently the architecture specific code is expected to display the
protection keys in smap for a given vma. This can lead to redundant
code and possibly to divergent formats in which the key gets
displayed.

This patch changes the implementation. It displays the pkey only if
the architecture support pkeys, i.e arch_pkeys_enabled() returns true.

x86 arch_show_smap() function is not needed anymore, delete it.

x86/setup: Do not reserve a crash kernel region if booted on Xen PV

2018-04-27T15:06:28+00:00

Xen PV domains cannot shut down and start a crash kernel. Instead,
the crashing kernel makes a SCHEDOP_shutdown hypercall with the
reason code SHUTDOWN_crash, cf. xen_crash_shutdown() machine op in
arch/x86/xen/enlighten_pv.c.

A crash kernel reservation is merely a waste of RAM in this case. It
may also confuse users of kexec_load(2) and/or kexec_file_load(2).
When flags include KEXEC_ON_CRASH or KEXEC_FILE_ON_CRASH,
respectively, these syscalls return success, which is technically
correct, but the crash kexec image will never be actually used.

x86/cpu_entry_area: Sync cpu_entry_area to initial_page_table

2018-03-01T08:48:27+00:00

The separation of the cpu_entry_area from the fixmap missed the fact that
on 32bit non-PAE kernels the cpu_entry_area mapping might not be covered in
initial_page_table by the previous synchronizations.

This results in suspend/resume failures because 32bit utilizes initial page
table for resume. The absence of the cpu_entry_area mapping results in a
triple fault, aka. insta reboot.

With PAE enabled this works by chance because the PGD entry which covers
the fixmap and other parts incindentally provides the cpu_entry_area
mapping as well.

Synchronize the initial page table after setting up the cpu entry
area. Instead of adding yet another copy of the same code, move it to a
function and invoke it from the various places.

It needs to be investigated if the existing calls in setup_arch() and
setup_per_cpu_areas() can be replaced by the later invocation from
setup_cpu_entry_areas(), but that's beyond the scope of this fix.

x86/mm: Make MAX_PHYSADDR_BITS and MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS dynamic

2018-02-14T12:11:15+00:00

For boot-time switching between paging modes, we need to be able to
adjust size of physical address space at runtime.

As part of making physical address space size variable, we have to make
X86_5LEVEL dependent on SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP. !SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP
configuration doesn't build with variable MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS.

For !SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP SECTIONS_WIDTH depends on MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS:

SECTIONS_WIDTH
  SECTIONS_SHIFT
    MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS

And SECTIONS_WIDTH is used on pre-processor stage, it doesn't work if it's
dyncamic. See include/linux/page-flags-layout.h.

Effect on kernel image size:

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
8628393	4734340	1368064	14730797	 e0c62d	vmlinux.before

x86/mm: Encrypt the initrd earlier for BSP microcode update

2018-01-16T00:50:59+00:00

Currently the BSP microcode update code examines the initrd very early
in the boot process.  If SME is active, the initrd is treated as being
encrypted but it has not been encrypted (in place) yet.  Update the
early boot code that encrypts the kernel to also encrypt the initrd so
that early BSP microcode updates work.

x86/efi: Fix kernel param add_efi_memmap regression

2018-01-03T12:54:31+00:00

'add_efi_memmap' is an early param, but do_add_efi_memmap() has no
chance to run because the code path is before parse_early_param().
I believe it worked when the param was introduced but probably later
some other changes caused the wrong order and nobody noticed it.

Move efi_memblock_x86_reserve_range() after parse_early_param()
to fix it.

 "These updates are related to TSC handling:

   - Support platforms which have synchronized TSCs but the boot CPU has
     a non zero TSC_ADJUST value, which is considered a firmware bug on
     normal systems.

     This applies to HPE/SGI UV platforms where the platform firmware
     uses TSC_ADJUST to ensure TSC synchronization across a huge number
     of sockets, but due to power on timings the boot CPU cannot be
     guaranteed to have a zero TSC_ADJUST register value.

   - Fix the ordering of udelay calibration and kvmclock_init()

   - Cleanup the udelay and calibration code"
