Commit 1d3e53e8624a ("x86/entry/64: Refactor IRQ stacks and make them
NMI-safe") added DEBUG_ENTRY_ASSERT_IRQS_OFF macro that acceses eflags
using 'pushfq' instruction when testing for IF bit. On PV Xen guests
looking at IF flag directly will always see it set, resulting in 'ud2'.
Introduce SAVE_FLAGS() macro that will use appropriate save_fl pv op when
running paravirt.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

load_sp0() had an odd signature:
void load_sp0(struct tss_struct *tss, struct thread_struct *thread);
Simplify it to:

Also simplify a few get_cpu()/put_cpu() sequences to
preempt_disable()/preempt_enable().

When running as Xen pv-guest the exception frame on the stack contains
%r11 and %rcx additional to the other data pushed by the processor.
Instead of having a paravirt op being called for each exception type
prepend the Xen specific code to each exception entry. When running as
Xen pv-guest just use the exception entry with prepended instructions,
otherwise use the entry without the Xen specific code.

The kernel has several code paths that read CR3. Most of them assume that
CR3 contains the PGD's physical address, whereas some of them awkwardly
use PHYSICAL_PAGE_MASK to mask off low bits.
Add explicit mask macros for CR3 and convert all of the CR3 readers.
This will keep them from breaking when PCID is enabled.

Rather than passing all the contents of flush_tlb_info to
flush_tlb_others(), pass a pointer to the structure directly. For
consistency, this also removes the unnecessary cpu parameter from
uv_flush_tlb_others() to make its signature match the other
*flush_tlb_others() functions.
This serves two purposes:
- It will dramatically simplify future patches that change struct
flush_tlb_info, which I'm planning to do.
- struct flush_tlb_info is an adequate description of what to do
for a local flush, too, so by reusing it we can remove duplicated
code between local and remove flushes in a future patch.

The current transparent hugepage code only supports PMDs. This patch
adds support for transparent use of PUDs with DAX. It does not include
support for anonymous pages. x86 support code also added.
Most of this patch simply parallels the work that was done for huge
PMDs. The only major difference is how the new ->pud_entry method in
mm_walk works. The ->pmd_entry method replaces the ->pte_entry method,
whereas the ->pud_entry method works along with either ->pmd_entry or
->pte_entry. The pagewalk code takes care of locking the PUD before
calling ->pud_walk, so handlers do not need to worry whether the PUD is
stable.

The cpu argument in the function prototype of vcpu_is_preempted()
is changed from int to long. That makes it easier to provide a better
optimized assembly version of that function.
For Xen, vcpu_is_preempted(long) calls xen_vcpu_stolen(int), the
downcast from long to int is not a problem as vCPU number won't exceed
32 bits.

Avoid the pointless function call to pv_lock_ops.vcpu_is_preempted()
when a paravirt spinlock enabled kernel is ran on native hardware.
Do this by patching out the CALL instruction with "XOR %RAX,%RAX"

"In this cycle this topic tree has become one of those 'super topics'
that accumulated a lot of changes:
- Add CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y support to the core kernel and enable it on
x86 - preceded by an array of changes. v4.8 saw preparatory changes
in this area already - this is the rest of the work. Includes the
thread stack caching performance optimization. (Andy Lutomirski)
- switch_to() cleanups and all around enhancements. (Brian Gerst)
- A large number of dumpstack infrastructure enhancements and an
unwinder abstraction. The secret long term plan is safe(r) live
patching plus maybe another attempt at debuginfo based unwinding -
but all these current bits are standalone enhancements in a frame
pointer based debug environment as well. (Josh Poimboeuf)
- More __ro_after_init and const annotations. (Kees Cook)
- Enable KASLR for the vmemmap memory region. (Thomas Garnier)"

x86-specific per se, even if they are only used on x86 right now. ]

We use __read_cr4() vs __read_cr4_safe() inconsistently. On
CR4-less CPUs, all CR4 bits are effectively clear, so we can make
the code simpler and more robust by making __read_cr4() always fix
up faults on 32-bit kernels.
This may fix some bugs on old 486-like CPUs, but I don't have any
easy way to test that.

We have 4 types of x86 platforms that disable RTC:
* Intel MID
* Lguest - uses paravirt
* Xen dom-U - uses paravirt
* x86 on legacy systems annotated with an ACPI legacy flag
We can consolidate all of these into a platform specific legacy
quirk set early in boot through i386_start_kernel() and through
x86_64_start_reservations(). This deals with the RTC quirks which
we can rely on through the hardware subarch, the ACPI check can
be dealt with separately.
For Xen things are bit more complex given that the @X86_SUBARCH_XEN
x86_hardware_subarch is shared on for Xen which uses the PV path for
both domU and dom0. Since the semantics for differentiating between
the two are Xen specific we provide a platform helper to help override
default legacy features -- x86_platform.set_legacy_features(). Use
of this helper is highly discouraged, its only purpose should be
to account for the lack of semantics available within your given
x86_hardware_subarch.
As per 0-day, this bumps the vmlinux size using i386-tinyconfig as
follows:
TOTAL TEXT init.text x86_early_init_platform_quirks()
+70 +62 +62 +43
Only 8 bytes overhead total, as the main increase in size is
all removed via __init.

Enabling CONFIG_PARAVIRT had an unintended side effect: rdmsr() turned

This adds paravirt callbacks for unsafe MSR access. On native, they
call native_{read,write}_msr(). On Xen, they use xen_{read,write}_msr_safe().
Nothing uses them yet for ease of bisection. The next patch will
use them in rdmsrl(), wrmsrl(), etc.
I intentionally didn't make them warn on #GP on Xen. I think that
should be done separately by the Xen maintainers.

A function created with the PV_CALLEE_SAVE_REGS_THUNK macro doesn't set
up a new stack frame before the call instruction, which breaks frame
pointer convention if CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is enabled and can result in
a bad stack trace. Also, the thunk functions aren't annotated as ELF
callable functions.
Create a stack frame when CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is enabled and add the
ELF function type.

Adding the rtc platform device in non-privileged Xen PV guests causes
an IRQ conflict because these guests do not have legacy PIC and may
allocate irqs in the legacy range.
In a single VCPU Xen PV guest we should have:
/proc/interrupts:
CPU0
0: 4934 xen-percpu-virq timer0
1: 0 xen-percpu-ipi spinlock0
2: 0 xen-percpu-ipi resched0
3: 0 xen-percpu-ipi callfunc0
4: 0 xen-percpu-virq debug0
5: 0 xen-percpu-ipi callfuncsingle0
6: 0 xen-percpu-ipi irqwork0
7: 321 xen-dyn-event xenbus
8: 90 xen-dyn-event hvc_console
...
But hvc_console cannot get its interrupt because it is already in use
by rtc0 and the console does not work.
genirq: Flags mismatch irq 8. 00000000 (hvc_console) vs. 00000000 (rtc0)
We can avoid this problem by realizing that unprivileged PV guests (both
Xen and lguests) are not supposed to have rtc_cmos device and so
adding it is not necessary.
Privileged guests (i.e. Xen's dom0) do use it but they should not have
irq conflicts since they allocate irqs above legacy range (above
gsi_top, in fact).
Instead of explicitly testing whether the guest is privileged we can
extend pv_info structure to include information about guest's RTC
support.

As of cf991de2f614 ("x86/asm/msr: Make wrmsrl_safe() a
function"), wrmsrl_safe is a function, but wrmsrl is still a
macro. The wrmsrl macro performs invalid shifts if the value
argument is 32 bits. This makes it unnecessarily awkward to
write code that puts an unsigned long into an MSR.
To make this work, syscall_init needs tweaking to stop passing
a function pointer to wrmsrl.

We've had ->read_tsc() and ->read_tscp() paravirt hooks since
the very beginning of paravirt, i.e.,
d3561b7fa0fb ("[PATCH] paravirt: header and stubs for paravirtualisation").
AFAICT, the only paravirt guest implementation that ever
replaced these calls was vmware, and it's gone. Arguably even
vmware shouldn't have hooked RDTSC -- we fully support systems
that don't have a TSC at all, so there's no point for a paravirt
implementation to pretend that we have a TSC but to replace it.
I also doubt that these hooks actually worked. Calls to rdtscl()
and rdtscll(), which respected the hooks, were used seemingly
interchangeably with native_read_tsc(), which did not.
Just remove them. If anyone ever needs them again, they can try
to make a case for why they need them.

Valentin Rothberg reported that we use CONFIG_QUEUED_SPINLOCKS
in arch/x86/kernel/paravirt_patch_32.c, while the symbol is
called CONFIG_QUEUED_SPINLOCK. (Note the extra 'S')
But the typo was natural: the proper English term for such
a generic object would be 'queued spinlocks' - so rename
this and related symbols accordingly to the plural form.

We use the regular paravirt call patching to switch between:
native_queued_spin_lock_slowpath() __pv_queued_spin_lock_slowpath()
native_queued_spin_unlock() __pv_queued_spin_unlock()
We use a callee saved call for the unlock function which reduces the
i-cache footprint and allows 'inlining' of SPIN_UNLOCK functions
again.
We further optimize the unlock path by patching the direct call with a
"movb $0,%arg1" if we are indeed using the native unlock code. This
makes the unlock code almost as fast as the !PARAVIRT case.
This significantly lowers the overhead of having
CONFIG_PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS enabled, even for native code.

Context switches and TLB flushes can change individual bits of CR4.
CR4 reads take several cycles, so store a shadow copy of CR4 in a
per-cpu variable.
To avoid wasting a cache line, I added the CR4 shadow to
cpu_tlbstate, which is already touched in switch_mm. The heaviest
users of the cr4 shadow will be switch_mm and __switch_to_xtra, and
__switch_to_xtra is called shortly after switch_mm during context
switch, so the cacheline is likely to be hot.

asm-generic/mm_hooks.h provides some generic fillers for the 90%
of architectures that do not need to hook some mmap-manipulation
functions. A comment inside says:
> Define generic no-op hooks for arch_dup_mmap and
> arch_exit_mmap, to be included in asm-FOO/mmu_context.h
> for any arch FOO which doesn't need to hook these.
So, does x86 need to hook these? It depends on CONFIG_PARAVIRT.
We *conditionally* include this generic header if we have
CONFIG_PARAVIRT=n. That's madness.
With this patch, x86 stops using asm-generic/mmu_hooks.h entirely.
We use our own copies of the functions. The paravirt code
provides some stubs if it is disabled, and we always call those
stubs in our x86-private versions of arch_exit_mmap() and
arch_dup_mmap().

The paravirt thunks use a hack of using a static reference to a static
function to reference that function from the top level statement.
This assumes that gcc always generates static function names in a specific
format, which is not necessarily true.
Simply make these functions global and asmlinkage or __visible. This way the
static __used variables are not needed and everything works.
Functions with arguments are __visible to keep the register calling
convention on 32bit.
Changed in paravirt and in all users (Xen and vsmp)
v2: Use __visible for functions with arguments

Maintain a flag in the LSB of the ticket lock tail which indicates
whether anyone is in the lock slowpath and may need kicking when
the current holder unlocks. The flags are set when the first locker
enters the slowpath, and cleared when unlocking to an empty queue (ie,
no contention).
In the specific implementation of lock_spinning(), make sure to set
the slowpath flags on the lock just before blocking. We must do
this before the last-chance pickup test to prevent a deadlock
with the unlocker:
Unlocker Locker
test for lock pickup
-> fail
unlock
test slowpath
-> false
set slowpath flags
block
Whereas this works in any ordering:
Unlocker Locker
set slowpath flags
test for lock pickup
-> fail
block
unlock
test slowpath
-> true, kick
If the unlocker finds that the lock has the slowpath flag set but it is
actually uncontended (ie, head == tail, so nobody is waiting), then it
clears the slowpath flag.
The unlock code uses a locked add to update the head counter. This also
acts as a full memory barrier so that its safe to subsequently
read back the slowflag state, knowing that the updated lock is visible
to the other CPUs. If it were an unlocked add, then the flag read may
just be forwarded from the store buffer before it was visible to the other
CPUs, which could result in a deadlock.
Unfortunately this means we need to do a locked instruction when
unlocking with PV ticketlocks. However, if PV ticketlocks are not
enabled, then the old non-locked "add" is the only unlocking code.
Note: this code relies on gcc making sure that unlikely() code is out of
line of the fastpath, which only happens when OPTIMIZE_SIZE=n. If it
doesn't the generated code isn't too bad, but its definitely suboptimal.
Thanks to Srivatsa Vaddagiri for providing a bugfix to the original
version of this change, which has been folded in.
Thanks to Stephan Diestelhorst for commenting on some code which relied
on an inaccurate reading of the x86 memory ordering rules.

Although the lock_spinning calls in the spinlock code are on the
uncommon path, their presence can cause the compiler to generate many
more register save/restores in the function pre/postamble, which is in
the fast path. To avoid this, convert it to using the pvops callee-save
calling convention, which defers all the save/restores until the actual
function is called, keeping the fastpath clean.

Rather than outright replacing the entire spinlock implementation in
order to paravirtualize it, keep the ticket lock implementation but add
a couple of pvops hooks on the slow patch (long spin on lock, unlocking
a contended lock).
Ticket locks have a number of nice properties, but they also have some
surprising behaviours in virtual environments. They enforce a strict
FIFO ordering on cpus trying to take a lock; however, if the hypervisor
scheduler does not schedule the cpus in the correct order, the system can
waste a huge amount of time spinning until the next cpu can take the lock.
(See Thomas Friebel's talk "Prevent Guests from Spinning Around"
http://www.xen.org/files/xensummitboston08/LHP.pdf for more details.)
To address this, we add two hooks:
- __ticket_spin_lock which is called after the cpu has been
spinning on the lock for a significant number of iterations but has
failed to take the lock (presumably because the cpu holding the lock
has been descheduled). The lock_spinning pvop is expected to block
the cpu until it has been kicked by the current lock holder.
- __ticket_spin_unlock, which on releasing a contended lock
(there are more cpus with tail tickets), it looks to see if the next
cpu is blocked and wakes it if so.
When compiled with CONFIG_PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS disabled, a set of stub
functions causes all the extra code to go away.

Pull x86 paravirt update from Ingo Molnar:
"Various paravirtualization related changes - the biggest one makes
guest support optional via CONFIG_HYPERVISOR_GUEST"
* 'x86-paravirt-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
x86, wakeup, sleep: Use pvops functions for changing GDT entries
x86, xen, gdt: Remove the pvops variant of store_gdt.
x86-32, gdt: Store/load GDT for ACPI S3 or hibernation/resume path is not needed
x86-64, gdt: Store/load GDT for ACPI S3 or hibernate/resume path is not needed.
x86: Make Linux guest support optional
x86, Kconfig: Move PARAVIRT_DEBUG into the paravirt menu
|
|
The two use-cases where we needed to store the GDT were during ACPI S3 suspend
and resume. As the patches:
x86/gdt/i386: store/load GDT for ACPI S3 or hibernation/resume path is not needed
x86/gdt/64-bit: store/load GDT for ACPI S3 or hibernate/resume path is not needed.
have demonstrated - there are other mechanism by which the GDT is
saved and reloaded during early resume path.
Hence we do not need to worry about the pvops call-chain for saving the
GDT and can and can eliminate it. The other areas where the store_gdt is
used are never going to be hit when running under the pvops platforms.

Invoking arch_flush_lazy_mmu_mode() results in calls to
preempt_enable()/disable() which may have performance impact.
Since lazy MMU is not used on bare metal we can patch away
arch_flush_lazy_mmu_mode() so that it is never called in such
environment.
[ hpa: the previous patch "Fix vmalloc_fault oops during lazy MMU
updates" may cause a minor performance regression on
bare metal. This patch resolves that performance regression. It is
somewhat unclear to me if this is a good -stable candidate. ]

With CONFIG_PARAVIRT=y and CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE=n, the build breaks
because set_pmd_at() is undeclared:
mm/memory.c: In function 'do_pmd_numa_page':
mm/memory.c:3520: error: implicit declaration of function 'set_pmd_at'
mm/mprotect.c: In function 'change_pmd_protnuma':
mm/mprotect.c:120: error: implicit declaration of function 'set_pmd_at'
This is because paravirt defines set_pmd_at() only when
CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE=y and such a restriction is unneeded. The
fix is to define it for all CONFIG_PARAVIRT configurations.
