x86/espfix: Document use of _PAGE_GLOBAL

2018-04-09T16:27:33+00:00

The "normal" kernel page table creation mechanisms using PAGE_KERNEL_* page protections will never set _PAGE_GLOBAL with PTI. The few places in the kernel that always want _PAGE_GLOBAL must avoid using PAGE_KERNEL_*. Document that we want it here and its use is not accidental.

locking/atomics: COCCINELLE/treewide: Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() patterns to READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE()

2017-10-25T09:01:08+00:00

Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the coccinelle script shown below and apply its output. For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in churn. However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following coccinelle script: ---- // Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() uses to equivalent READ_ONCE() and // WRITE_ONCE() // $ make coccicheck COCCI=/home/mark/once.cocci SPFLAGS="--include-headers" MODE=patch virtual patch @ depends on patch @ expression E1, E2; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E1) = E2 + WRITE_ONCE(E1, E2) @ depends on patch @ expression E; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E) + READ_ONCE(E) ---- Signed-off-by: Mark Rutland Signed-off-by: Paul E.

x86/mm: Provide general kernel support for memory encryption

2017-07-18T09:38:00+00:00

Changes to the existing page table macros will allow the SME support to be enabled in a simple fashion with minimal changes to files that use these macros. Since the memory encryption mask will now be part of the regular pagetable macros, we introduce two new macros (_PAGE_TABLE_NOENC and _KERNPG_TABLE_NOENC) to allow for early pagetable creation/initialization without the encryption mask before SME becomes active. Two new pgprot() macros are defined to allow setting or clearing the page encryption mask. The FIXMAP_PAGE_NOCACHE define is introduced for use with MMIO. SME does not support encryption for MMIO areas so this define removes the encryption mask from the page attribute. Two new macros are introduced (__sme_pa() / __sme_pa_nodebug()) to allow creating a physical address with the encryption mask. These are used when working with the cr3 register so that the PGD can be encrypted. The current __va() macro is updated so that the virtual address is generated based off of the physical address without the encryption mask thus allowing the same virtual address to be generated regardless of whether encryption is enabled for that physical location or not. Also, an early initialization function is added for SME. If SME is active, this function: - Updates the early_pmd_flags so that early page faults create mappings with the encryption mask. - Updates the __supported_pte_mask to include the encryption mask. - Updates the protection_map entries to include the encryption mask so that user-space allocations will automatically have the encryption mask applied.

x86/espfix: Add support for 5-level paging

2017-04-04T06:22:34+00:00

We don't need extra virtual address space for ESPFIX, so it stays within one PUD page table for both 4- and 5-level paging. Redefining ESPFIX_BASE_ADDR using P4D_SHIFT instead of PGDIR_SHIFT would make it stay in the same place regarding of paging mode. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

x86: get rid of superfluous __GFP_REPEAT

2016-06-25T00:23:52+00:00

__GFP_REPEAT has a rather weak semantic but since it has been introduced around 2.6.12 it has been ignored for low order allocations. PGALLOC_GFP uses __GFP_REPEAT but none of the allocation which uses this flag is for more than order-0. This means that this flag has never been actually useful here because it has always been used only for PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY requests.
