2013-11-02x86/mm/cpa: Map in an arbitrary pgdBorislav Petkov1-7/+46
Add the ability to map pages in an arbitrary pgd. This wires in the remaining stuff so that there's a new interface with which you can map a region into an arbitrary PGD. Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com>
2013-11-02x86/mm/pageattr: Add last levels of error pathBorislav Petkov1-1/+93
We try to free the pagetable pages once we've unmapped our portion. Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com>
2013-11-02x86/mm/pageattr: Add a PUD error unwinding pathBorislav Petkov1-2/+58
In case we encounter an error during the mapping of a region, we want to unwind what we've established so far exactly the way we did the mapping. This is the PUD part kept deliberately small for easier review. Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com>
2013-11-02x86/mm/pageattr: Add a PTE pagetable populating functionBorislav Petkov1-1/+21
Handle last level by unconditionally writing the PTEs into the PTE page while paying attention to the NX bit. Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com>
2013-11-02x86/mm/pageattr: Add a PMD pagetable populating functionBorislav Petkov1-1/+81
Handle PMD-level mappings the same as PUD ones. Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com>
2013-11-02x86/mm/pageattr: Add a PUD pagetable populating functionBorislav Petkov1-1/+86
Add the next level of the pagetable populating function, we handle chunks around a 1G boundary by mapping them with the lower level functions - otherwise we use 1G pages for the mappings, thus using as less amount of pagetable pages as possible.

2013-11-02x86/mm/pageattr: Add a PGD pagetable populating functionBorislav Petkov1-0/+39
This allocates, if necessary, and populates the corresponding PGD entry with a PUD page. The next population level is a dummy macro which will be removed by the next patch and it is added here to keep the patch small and easily reviewable but not break bisection, at the same time.

2013-04-11x86/mm/cpa: Convert noop to functional fixAndrea Arcangeli1-5/+5
Commit: a8aed3e0752b ("x86/mm/pageattr: Prevent PSE and GLOABL leftovers to confuse pmd/pte_present and pmd_huge") introduced a valid fix but one location that didn't trigger the bug that lead to finding those (small) problems, wasn't updated using the right variable. The wrong variable was also initialized for no good reason, that may have been the source of the confusion. Remove the noop initialization accordingly. Commit a8aed3e0752b also erroneously removed one canon_pgprot pass meant to clear pmd bitflags not supported in hardware by older CPUs, that automatically gets corrected by this patch too by applying it to the right variable in the new location.

So basically we're generating the pte_t * from a struct page and we're handing it down to the __split_large_page() internal version which then goes and gets back struct page * from it because it needs it. Change the caller to hand down struct page * directly and the callee can compute the pte_t itself. Net save is one virt_to_page() call and simpler code. While at it, make __split_large_page() static.

and pmd_huge Without this patch any kernel code that reads kernel memory in non present kernel pte/pmds (as set by pageattr.c) will crash. With this kernel code: static struct page *crash_page; static unsigned long *crash_address; [..] crash_page = alloc_pages(GFP_KERNEL, 9); crash_address = page_address(crash_page); if (set_memory_np((unsigned long)crash_address, 1)) printk("set_memory_np failure\n"); [..] The kernel will crash if inside the "crash tool" one would try to read the memory at the not present address. crash> p crash_address crash_address = $8 = (long unsigned int *) 0xffff88023c000000 crash> rd 0xffff88023c000000 [ *lockup* ] The lockup happens because _PAGE_GLOBAL and _PAGE_PROTNONE shares the same bit, and pageattr leaves _PAGE_GLOBAL set on a kernel pte which is then mistaken as _PAGE_PROTNONE (so pte_present returns true by mistake and the kernel fault then gets confused and loops). With THP the same can happen after we taught pmd_present to check _PAGE_PROTNONE and _PAGE_PSE in commit 027ef6c87853b0a9df5317 ("mm: thp: fix pmd_present for split_huge_page and PROT_NONE with THP"). THP has the same problem with _PAGE_GLOBAL as the 4k pages, but it also has a problem with _PAGE_PSE, which must be cleared too.

2013-02-24memory-hotplug: common APIs to support page tables hot-removeWen Congyang1-22/+25
When memory is removed, the corresponding pagetables should alse be removed. This patch introduces some common APIs to support vmemmap pagetable and x86_64 architecture direct mapping pagetable removing. All pages of virtual mapping in removed memory cannot be freed if some pages used as PGD/PUD include not only removed memory but also other memory. So this patch uses the following way to check whether a page can be freed or not. 1) When removing memory, the page structs of the removed memory are filled with 0FD. 2) All page structs are filled with 0xFD on PT/PMD, PT/PMD can be cleared. In this case, the page used as PT/PMD can be freed. For direct mapping pages, update direct_pages_count[level] when we freed their pagetables. And do not free the pages again because they were freed when offlining. For vmemmap pages, free the pages and their pagetables. For larger pages, do not split them into smaller ones because there is no way to know if the larger page has been split. As a result, there is no way to decide when to split. We deal the larger pages in the following way: 1) For direct mapped pages, all the pages were freed when they were offlined. And since menmory offline is done section by section, all the memory ranges being removed are aligned to PAGE_SIZE. So only need to deal with unaligned pages when freeing vmemmap pages. 2) For vmemmap pages being used to store page_struct, if part of the larger page is still in use, just fill the unused part with 0xFD. And when the whole page is fulfilled with 0xFD, then free the larger page.

2013-01-26x86, mm: Create slow_virt_to_phys()Dave Hansen1-0/+31
This is necessary because __pa() does not work on some kinds of memory, like vmalloc() or the alloc_remap() areas on 32-bit NUMA systems. We have some functions to do conversions _like_ this in the vmalloc() code (like vmalloc_to_page()), but they do not work on sizes other than 4k pages. We would potentially need to be able to handle all the page sizes that we use for the kernel linear mapping (4k, 2M, 1G). In practice, on 32-bit NUMA systems, the percpu areas get stuck in the alloc_remap() area. Any __pa() call on them will break and basically return garbage. This patch introduces a new function slow_virt_to_phys(), which walks the kernel page tables on x86 and should do precisely the same logical thing as __pa(), but actually work on a wider range of memory. It should work on the normal linear mapping, vmalloc(), kmap(), etc...

2012-11-17x86: Use __pa_symbol instead of __pa on C visible symbolsAlexander Duyck1-4/+4
When I made an attempt at separating __pa_symbol and __pa I found that there were a number of cases where __pa was used on an obvious symbol. I also caught one non-obvious case as _brk_start and _brk_end are based on the address of __brk_base which is a C visible symbol. In mark_rodata_ro I was able to reduce the overhead of kernel symbol to virtual memory translation by using a combination of __va(__pa_symbol()) instead of page_address(virt_to_page()).

2012-10-30x86-64/efi: Use EFI to deal with platform wall clock (again)Jan Beulich1-4/+6
Other than ix86, x86-64 on EFI so far didn't set the {g,s}et_wallclock accessors to the EFI routines, thus incorrectly using raw RTC accesses instead. Simply removing the #ifdef around the respective code isn't enough, however: While so far early get-time calls were done in physical mode, this doesn't work properly for x86-64, as virtual addresses would still need to be set up for all runtime regions (which wasn't the case on the system I have access to), so instead the patch moves the call to efi_enter_virtual_mode() ahead (which in turn allows to drop all code related to calling efi-get-time in physical mode). Additionally the earlier calling of efi_set_executable() requires the CPA code to cope, i.e. during early boot it must be avoided to call cpa_flush_array(), as the first thing this function does is a BUG_ON(irqs_disabled()). Also make the two EFI functions in question here static - they're not being referenced elsewhere. History: This commit was originally merged as bacef661acdb ("x86-64/efi: Use EFI to deal with platform wall clock") but it resulted in some ASUS machines no longer booting due to a firmware bug, and so was reverted in f026cfa82f62. A pre-emptive fix for the buggy ASUS firmware was merged in 03a1c254975e ("x86, efi: 1:1 pagetable mapping for virtual EFI calls") so now this patch can be reapplied.

There is absolutely no reason to force these pages RW after they have already been marked RO.

2010-11-18x86: Add NX protection for kernel dataMatthieu Castet1-1/+4
This patch expands functionality of CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA to set main (static) kernel data area as NX. The following steps are taken to achieve this: 1. Linker script is adjusted so .text always starts and ends on a page bound 2. Linker script is adjusted so .rodata always start and end on a page boundary 3. NX is set for all pages from _etext through _end in mark_rodata_ro. 4. free_init_pages() sets released memory NX in arch/x86/mm/init.c 5. bios rom is set to x when pcibios is used. The results of patch application may be observed in the diff of kernel page table dumps: pcibios: -- data_nx_pt_before.txt 2009-10-13 07:48:59.000000000 -0400 ++ data_nx_pt_after.txt 2009-10-13 07:26:46.000000000 -0400 0x00000000-0xc0000000 3G pmd ---[ Kernel Mapping ]--- -0xc0000000-0xc0100000 1M RW GLB x pte +0xc0000000-0xc00a0000 640K RW GLB NX pte +0xc00a0000-0xc0100000 384K RW GLB x pte -0xc0100000-0xc03d7000 2908K ro GLB x pte +0xc0100000-0xc0318000 2144K ro GLB x pte +0xc0318000-0xc03d7000 764K ro GLB NX pte -0xc03d7000-0xc0600000 2212K RW GLB x pte +0xc03d7000-0xc0600000 2212K RW GLB NX pte 0xc0600000-0xf7a00000 884M RW PSE GLB NX pmd 0xf7a00000-0xf7bfe000 2040K RW GLB NX pte 0xf7bfe000-0xf7c00000 8K pte No pcibios: -- data_nx_pt_before.txt 2009-10-13 07:48:59.000000000 -0400 ++ data_nx_pt_after.txt 2009-10-13 07:26:46.000000000 -0400 0x00000000-0xc0000000 3G pmd ---[ Kernel Mapping ]--- -0xc0000000-0xc0100000 1M RW GLB x pte +0xc0000000-0xc0100000 1M RW GLB NX pte -0xc0100000-0xc03d7000 2908K ro GLB x pte +0xc0100000-0xc0318000 2144K ro GLB x pte +0xc0318000-0xc03d7000 764K ro GLB NX pte -0xc03d7000-0xc0600000 2212K RW GLB x pte +0xc03d7000-0xc0600000 2212K RW GLB NX pte 0xc0600000-0xf7a00000 884M RW PSE GLB NX pmd 0xf7a00000-0xf7bfe000 2040K RW GLB NX pte 0xf7bfe000-0xf7c00000 8K pte The patch has been originally developed for Linux 2.6.34-rc2 x86 by Siarhei Liakh <sliakh.lkml@gmail.com> and Xuxian Jiang <jiang@cs.ncsu.edu>. -v1: initial patch for 2.6.30 -v2: patch for 2.6.31-rc7 -v3: moved all code into arch/x86, adjusted credits -v4: fixed ifdef, removed credits from CREDITS -v5: fixed an address calculation bug in mark_nxdata_nx() -v6: added acked-by and PT dump diff to commit log -v7: minor adjustments for -tip -v8: rework with the merge of "Set first MB as RW+NX" Signed-off-by: Siarhei Liakh <sliakh.lkml@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Xuxian Jiang <jiang@cs.ncsu.edu> Signed-off-by: Matthieu CASTET <castet.matthieu@free.fr> Cc: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@infradead.org> Cc: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@muc.de> Cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Cc: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com> Cc: Kees Cook <kees.cook@canonical.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> LKML-Reference: <4CE2F82E.60601@free.fr> [ minor cleanliness edits ] Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2010-11-18x86: Fix improper large page preservationmatthieu castet1-10/+18
This patch fixes a bug in try_preserve_large_page() which may result in improper large page preservation and improper application of page attributes to the memory area outside of the original change request. More specifically, the problem manifests itself when set_memory_*() is called for several pages at the beginning of the large page and try_preserve_large_page() erroneously concludes that the change can be applied to whole large page. The fix consists of 3 parts: 1. Addition of "required" protection attributes in static_protections(), so .data and .bss can be guaranteed to stay "RW" 2. static_protections() is now called for every small page within large page to determine compatibility of new protection attributes (instead of just small pages within the requested range). 3. Large page can be preserved only if attribute change is large-page-aligned and covers whole large page. -v1: Try_preserve_large_page() patch for Linux 2.6.34-rc2 -v2: Replaced pfn check with address check for kernel rw-data Signed-off-by: Siarhei Liakh <sliakh.lkml@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Xuxian Jiang <jiang@cs.ncsu.edu> Reviewed-by: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> Cc: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@infradead.org> Cc: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@muc.de> Cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Cc: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com> Cc: Kees Cook <kees.cook@canonical.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> LKML-Reference: <4CE2F7F3.8030809@free.fr> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo1-1/+1
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

2010-02-23x86_64, cpa: Don't work hard in preserving kernel 2M mappings when using 4K ↵Suresh Siddha1-2/+23
already We currently enforce the !RW mapping for the kernel mapping that maps holes between different text, rodata and data sections. However, kernel identity mappings will have different RWX permissions to the pages mapping to text and to the pages padding (which are freed) the text, rodata sections. Hence kernel identity mappings will be broken to smaller pages. For 64-bit, kernel text and kernel identity mappings are different, so we can enable protection checks that come with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA, as well as retain 2MB large page mappings for kernel text. Konrad reported a boot failure with the Linux Xen paravirt guest because of this. In this paravirt guest case, the kernel text mapping and the kernel identity mapping share the same page-table pages. Thus forcing the !RW mapping for some of the kernel mappings also cause the kernel identity mappings to be read-only resulting in the boot failure. Linux Xen paravirt guest also uses 4k mappings and don't use 2M mapping. Fix this issue and retain large page performance advantage for native kernels by not working hard and not enforcing !RW for the kernel text mapping, if the current mapping is already using small page mapping.

The commit 74e081797bd9d2a7d8005fe519e719df343a2ba8 x86-64: align RODATA kernel section to 2MB with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA prevents text sections from becoming read/write using set_memory_rw. The dynamic ftrace changes all text pages to read/write just before converting the calls to tracing to nops, and vice versa. I orginally just added a flag to allow this transaction when ftrace did the change, but I also found that when the CPA testing was running it would remove the read/write as well, and ftrace does not do the text conversion on boot up, and the CPA changes caused the dynamic tracer to fail on self tests. The current solution I have is to simply not to prevent change_page_attr from setting the RW bit for kernel text pages.

2009-10-20x86-64: align RODATA kernel section to 2MB with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATASuresh Siddha1-0/+14
CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA chops the large pages spanning boundaries of kernel text/rodata/data to small 4KB pages as they are mapped with different attributes (text as RO, RODATA as RO and NX etc). On x86_64, preserve the large page mappings for kernel text/rodata/data boundaries when CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is enabled. This is done by allowing the RODATA section to be hugepage aligned and having same RWX attributes for the 2MB page boundaries Extra Memory pages padding the sections will be freed during the end of the boot and the kernel identity mappings will have different RWX permissions compared to the kernel text mappings. Kernel identity mappings to these physical pages will be mapped with smaller pages but large page mappings are still retained for kernel text,rodata,data mappings.

2009-09-11agp/intel: Fix the pre-9xx chipset flush.Eric Anholt1-0/+1
Ever since we enabled GEM, the pre-9xx chipsets (particularly 865) have had serious stability issues. Back in May a wbinvd was added to the DRM to work around much of the problem. Some failure remained -- easily visible by dragging a window around on an X -retro desktop, or by looking at bugzilla. The chipset flush was on the right track -- hitting the right amount of memory, and it appears to be the only way to flush on these chipsets, but the flush page was mapped uncached. As a result, the writes trying to clear the writeback cache ended up bypassing the cache, and not flushing anything! The wbinvd would flush out other writeback data and often cause the data we wanted to get flushed, but not always. By removing the setting of the page to UC and instead just clflushing the data we write to try to flush it, we get the desired behavior with no wbinvd. This exports clflush_cache_range(), which was laying around and happened to basically match the code I was otherwise going to copy from the DRM.
