Currently, running SetVirtualAddressMap() and passing the physical address of the virtual map array was working only by a lucky coincidence because the memory was present in the EFI page table too. Until Toshi went and booted this on a big HP box - the krealloc() manner of resizing the memmap we're doing did allocate from such physical addresses which were not mapped anymore and boom: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1386806463.1791.295.camel@misato.fc.hp.com One way to take care of that issue is to reimplement the krealloc thing but with pages. We start with contiguous pages of order 1, i.e. 2 pages, and when we deplete that memory (shouldn't happen all that often but you know firmware) we realloc the next power-of-two pages. Having the pages, it is much more handy and easy to map them into the EFI page table with the already existing mapping code which we're using for building the virtual mappings. Thanks to Toshi Kani and Matt for the great debugging help. Reported-by:

With reusing the ->trampoline_pgd page table for mapping EFI regions in order to use them after having switched to EFI virtual mode, it is very useful to be able to dump aforementioned page table in dmesg. This adds that functionality through the walk_pgd_level() interface which can be called from somewhere else. The original functionality of dumping to debugfs remains untouched.

It makes more sense to set the feature flag in the success path of the detection function than it does to rely on the caller doing it. Apart from it being more logical to group the code and data together, it sets a much better example for new EFI architectures. Signed-off-by:

As we grow support for more EFI architectures they're going to want the ability to query which EFI features are available on the running system. Instead of storing this information in an architecture-specific place, stick it in the global 'struct efi', which is already the central location for EFI state. While we're at it, let's change the return value of efi_enabled() to be bool and replace all references to 'facility' with 'feature', which is the usual word used to describe the attributes of the running system.

When the conversion was made to remove stop machine and use the breakpoint logic instead, the modification of the function graph caller is still done directly as though it was being done under stop machine. As it is not converted via stop machine anymore, there is a possibility that the code could be layed across cache lines and if another CPU is accessing that function graph call when it is being updated, it could cause a General Protection Fault.

He bisected the problem to commit 1667918b ("mm: numa: clear numa hinting information on mprotect") that was also included in 3.12-stable. The problem was related to how xen translates ptes because it was not accounting for the _PAGE_NUMA bit. This patch splits pte_present to add a pteval_present helper for use by xen so both bare metal and xen use the same code when checking if a PTE is present.

When debug preempt is enabled, preempt_disable() can be traced by function and function graph tracing. There's a place in the function graph tracer that calls trace_clock() which eventually calls cycles_2_ns() outside of the recursion protection. When cycles_2_ns() calls preempt_disable() it gets traced and the graph tracer will go into a recursive loop causing a crash or worse, a triple fault. Simple fix is to use preempt_disable_notrace() in cycles_2_ns, which makes sense because the preempt_disable() tracing may use that code too, and it tracing it, even with recursion protection is rather pointless.

The following path will cause array out of bound. memblock_add_region() will always set nid in memblock.reserved to MAX_NUMNODES. In numa_register_memblks(), after we set all nid to correct valus in memblock.reserved, we called setup_node_data(), and used memblock_alloc_nid() to allocate memory, with nid set to MAX_NUMNODES. The nodemask_t type can be seen as a bit array. And the index is 0 ~ MAX_NUMNODES-1. After that, when we call node_set() in numa_clear_kernel_node_hotplug(), the nodemask_t got an index of value MAX_NUMNODES, which is out of [0 ~ MAX_NUMNODES-1]. See below: numa_init() |---> numa_register_memblks() | |---> memblock_set_node(memory) set correct nid in memblock.memory | |---> memblock_set_node(reserved) set correct nid in memblock.reserved | |...... | |---> setup_node_data() | |---> memblock_alloc_nid() here, nid is set to MAX_NUMNODES (1024) |...... |---> numa_clear_kernel_node_hotplug() |---> node_set() here, we have an index 1024, and overflowed This patch moves nid setting to numa_clear_kernel_node_hotplug() to fix this problem.

With DISCONTIGMEM, the mapping between a pfn and its owning node is initialized using data provided by the BIOS. However, the initialization may fail if the extents are not aligned to section boundary (64M). The symptom of this bug is an early boot failure in pfn_to_page(), as it tries to access NODE_DATA(__nid) using index from an unitialized element of the physnode_map[] array. While the bug is always present, it is more likely to be hit in kdump kernels on large machines, because: 1. The memory map for a kdump kernel is specified as exactmap, and exactmap is more likely to be unaligned. 2. Large reservations are more likely to span across a 64M boundary.

The grant mapping API does m2p_override unnecessarily: only gntdev needs it, for blkback and future netback patches it just cause a lock contention, as those pages never go to userspace. Therefore this series does the following: - the original functions were renamed to __gnttab_[un]map_refs, with a new parameter m2p_override - based on m2p_override either they follow the original behaviour, or just set the private flag and call set_phys_to_machine - gnttab_[un]map_refs are now a wrapper to call __gnttab_[un]map_refs with m2p_override false - a new function gnttab_[un]map_refs_userspace provides the old behaviour It also removes a stray space from page.h and change ret to 0 if XENFEAT_auto_translated_physmap, as that is the only possible return value there. v2: - move the storing of the old mfn in page->index to gnttab_map_refs - move the function header update to a separate patch v3: - a new approach to retain old behaviour where it needed - squash the patches into one v4: - move out the common bits from m2p* functions, and pass pfn/mfn as parameter - clear page->private before doing anything with the page, so m2p_find_override won't race with this v5: - change return value handling in __gnttab_[un]map_refs - remove a stray space in page.h - add detail why ret = 0 now at some places v6: - don't pass pfn to m2p* functions, just get it locally Signed-off-by:

The SOFT_DIRTY bit shows that the content of memory was changed after a defined point in the past. mprotect() doesn't change the content of memory, so it must not change the SOFT_DIRTY bit. This bug causes a malfunction: on the first iteration all pages are dumped. On other iterations only pages with the SOFT_DIRTY bit are dumped. So if the SOFT_DIRTY bit is cleared from a page by mistake, the page is not dumped and its content will be restored incorrectly. This patch does nothing with _PAGE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY, becase pte_modify() is called only for present pages. Fixes commit 0f8975ec ("mm: soft-dirty bits for user memory changes tracking"). Signed-off-by:

Commit dd78b973 ("x86, boot: Move CPU flags out of cpucheck") introduced ambiguous inline asm in the has_eflag() function. In 16-bit mode want the instruction to be 'pushfl', but we just say 'pushf' and hope the compiler does what we wanted. When building with 'clang -m16', it won't, because clang doesn't use the horrid '.code16gcc' hack that even 'gcc -m16' uses internally. Say what we mean and don't make the compiler make assumptions. [ hpa: ideally we would be able to use the gcc %zN construct here, but that is broken for 64-bit integers in gcc < 4.5. The code with plain "pushf/popf" is fine for 32- or 64-bit mode, but not for 16-bit mode; in 16-bit mode those are 16-bit instructions in .code16 mode, and 32-bit instructions in .code16gcc mode. ] Signed-off-by:

LTO in gcc 4.6/47. has trouble with global register variables. They were used to read the stack pointer. Use a simple inline assembler statement with a mov instead. This also helps LLVM/clang, which does not support global register variables. [ hpa: Ideally this should become a builtin in both gcc and clang. ] v2: More general asm constraint.

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 Cc: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org> Cc: Ido Yariv <ido@wizery.com> Signed-off-by:

The paravirt patching code assumes that it can reference a local assembler label between two different top level assembler statements. This does not work with LTO where the assembler code may end up in different assembler files. Replace it with extern / global /asm linkage labels. This also removes one redundant copy of the macro.

When Hyper-V hypervisor leaves are present, KVM must relocate its own leaves at 0x40000100, because Windows does not look for Hyper-V leaves at indices other than 0x40000000. In this case, the KVM features are at 0x40000101, but the old code would always look at 0x40000001. Fix by using kvm_cpuid_base(). This also requires making the function non-inline, since kvm_cpuid_base() is static. Fixes: 1085ba7f Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Cc: mtosatti@redhat.com Signed-off-by:

Dave reported big numa system booting is broken. It turns out that commit 5b6e5295 ("x86: memblock: set current limit to max low memory address") sets the limit to low wrongly. max_low_pfn_mapped is different from max_pfn_mapped. max_low_pfn_mapped is always under 4G. That will memblock_alloc_nid all go under 4G. Revert 5b6e5295 to fix a no-boot regression which was triggered by 457ff1de ("lib/swiotlb.c: use memblock apis for early memory allocations").
