2007-05-02[PATCH] x86: tighten kernel image page access rightsJan Beulich1-2/+2
On x86-64, kernel memory freed after init can be entirely unmapped instead of just getting 'poisoned' by overwriting with a debug pattern. On i386 and x86-64 (under CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA), kernel text and bug table can also be write-protected. Compared to the first version, this one prevents re-creating deleted mappings in the kernel image range on x86-64, if those got removed previously. This, together with the original changes, prevents temporarily having inconsistent mappings when cacheability attributes are being changed on such pages (e.g. from AGP code). While on i386 such duplicate mappings don't exist, the same change is done there, too, both for consistency and because checking pte_present() before using various other pte_XXX functions is a requirement anyway. At once, i386 code gets adjusted to use pte_huge() instead of open coding this. AK: split out cpa() changes Signed-off-by: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@novell.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
2007-05-02[PATCH] i386: rationalize paravirt wrappersRusty Russell1-288/+5
paravirt.c used to implement native versions of all low-level functions. Far cleaner is to have the native versions exposed in the headers and as inline native_XXX, and if !CONFIG_PARAVIRT, then simply #define XXX native_XXX. There are several nice side effects: 1) write_dt_entry() now takes the correct "struct Xgt_desc_struct *" not "void *". 2) load_TLS is reintroduced to the for loop, not manually unrolled with a #error in case the bounds ever change. 3) Macros become inlines, with type checking. 4) Access to the native versions is trivial for KVM, lguest, Xen and others who might want it.

2007-05-02[PATCH] i386: Use per-cpu GDT immediately upon bootRusty Russell3-111/+75
Now we are no longer dynamically allocating the GDT, we don't need the "cpu_gdt_table" at all: we can switch straight from "boot_gdt_table" to the per-cpu GDT. This means initializing the cpu_gdt array in C. The boot CPU uses the per-cpu var directly, then in smp_prepare_cpus() it switches to the per-cpu copy just allocated. For secondary CPUs, the early_gdt_descr is set to point directly to their per-cpu copy. For UP the code is very simple: it keeps using the "per-cpu" GDT as per SMP, but we never have to move.

2007-05-02[PATCH] x86: __pa and __pa_symbol address space separationVivek Goyal1-2/+2
Currently __pa_symbol is for use with symbols in the kernel address map and __pa is for use with pointers into the physical memory map. But the code is implemented so you can usually interchange the two. __pa which is much more common can be implemented much more cheaply if it is it doesn't have to worry about any other kernel address spaces. This is especially true with a relocatable kernel as __pa_symbol needs to peform an extra variable read to resolve the address. There is a third macro that is added for the vsyscall data __pa_vsymbol for finding the physical addesses of vsyscall pages. Most of this patch is simply sorting through the references to __pa or __pa_symbol and using the proper one. A little of it is continuing to use a physical address when we have it instead of recalculating it several times. swapper_pgd is now NULL. leave_mm now uses init_mm.pgd and init_mm.pgd is initialized at boot (instead of compile time) to the physmem virtual mapping of init_level4_pgd. The physical address changed. Except for the for EMPTY_ZERO page all of the remaining references to __pa_symbol appear to be during kernel initialization. So this should reduce the cost of __pa in the common case, even on a relocated kernel. As this is technically a semantic change we need to be on the lookout for anything I missed. But it works for me (tm). Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@in.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>

2007-05-02[PATCH] i386: i386 make NMI use PERFCTR1 for architectural perfmon (take 2)Stephane Eranian1-4/+4
Hello, This patch against 2.6.20-git14 makes the NMI watchdog use PERFSEL1/PERFCTR1 instead of PERFSEL0/PERFCTR0 on processors supporting Intel architectural perfmon, such as Intel Core 2. Although all PMU events can work on both counters, the Precise Event-Based Sampling (PEBS) requires that the event be in PERFCTR0 to work correctly (see section 18.14.4.1 in the IA32 SDM Vol 3b). A similar patch for x86-64 is to follow. Changelog: - make the i386 NMI watchdog use PERFSEL1/PERFCTR1 instead of PERFSEL0/PERFCTR0 on processors supporting the Intel architectural perfmon (e.g. Core 2 Duo). This allows PEBS to work when the NMI watchdog is active. signed-off-by: stephane eranian <eranian@hpl.hp.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>

a userspace fault or a kernelspace fault which will result in the immediate death of the process. They should not be filled in as a result of a kernelspace fault which can be fixed up. Otherwise, if the process is handling SIGSEGV and examining the fault information, this can result in the kernel space fault trashing the previously stored fault information if it arrives between the userspace fault happening and the SIGSEGV being delivered to the process.

Also in both versions, save/restore interrupts rather than disabling/ enabling them.

noreplacement is dangerous on modern systems because it will not replace the context switch FNSAVE with SSE aware FXSAVE. But other places in the kernel still assume SSE and do FXSAVE and the CPU will then access FXSAVE information with FNSAVE and cause corruption. Easiest way to avoid this is to remove the option.

2007-04-09[PATCH] Proper fix for highmem kmap_atomic functions for VMI for 2.6.21Zachary Amsden1-1/+22
Since lazy MMU batching mode still allows interrupts to enter, it is possible for interrupt handlers to try to use kmap_atomic, which fails when lazy mode is active, since the PTE update to highmem will be delayed. The best workaround is to issue an explicit flush in kmap_atomic_functions case; this is the only way nested PTE updates can happen in the interrupt handler. Thanks to Jeremy Fitzhardinge for noting the bug and suggestions on a fix. This patch gets reverted again when we start 2.6.22 and the bug gets fixed differently.

2007-04-02[PATCH] Fix microcode-related suspend problemRafael J. Wysocki1-4/+67
Fix the regression resulting from the recent change of suspend code ordering that causes systems based on Intel x86 CPUs using the microcode driver to hang during the resume. The problem occurs since the microcode driver uses request_firmware() in its CPU hotplug notifier, which is called after tasks has been frozen and hangs. It can be fixed by telling the microcode driver to use the microcode stored in memory during the resume instead of trying to load it from disk. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2007-04-02[PATCH] x86-64: Increase NMI watchdog probing timeoutAndi Kleen1-1/+1
A 4 core Opteron needs longer than 10 ticks for this. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
2007-04-02[PATCH] x86-64: Let oprofile reserve MSR on all CPUsAndi Kleen1-31/+96
The MSR reservation is per CPU and oprofile would only allocate them on the CPU it was initialized on. Change this to handle all CPUs. This also fixes a warning about unprotected use of smp_processor_id() in preemptible kernels. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
2007-04-02[PATCH] x86-64: Disable local APIC timer use on AMD systems with C1EAndi Kleen2-29/+37
AMD dual core laptops with C1E do not run the APIC timer correctly when they go idle. Previously the code assumed this only happened on C2 or deeper. But not all of these systems report support C2. Use a AMD supplied snippet to detect C1E being enabled and then disable local apic timer use. This supercedes an earlier workaround using DMI detection of specific systems. Thanks to Mark Langsdorf for the detection snippet. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
