* [PATCH] i386: Enable support for fixed-range IORRs to keep RdMem & WrMem in syncBernhard Kaindl2007-05-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If our copy of the MTRRs of the BSP has RdMem or WrMem set, and we are running on an AMD64/K8 system, the boot CPU must have had MtrrFixDramEn and MtrrFixDramModEn set (otherwise our RDMSR would have copied these bits cleared), so we set them on this CPU as well. This allows us to keep the AMD64/K8 RdMem and WrMem bits in sync across the CPUs of SMP systems in order to fullfill the duty of system software to "initialize and maintain MTRR consistency across all processors." as written in the AMD and Intel manuals. If an WRMSR instruction fails because MtrrFixDramModEn is not set, I expect that also the Intel-style MTRR bits are not updated.

* [PATCH] x86: Save and restore the fixed-range MTRRs of the BSP when suspendingBernhard Kaindl2007-05-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Note: This patch didn'nt need an update since it's initial post. Some BIOSes may modify fixed-range MTRRs in SMM, e.g. when they transition the system into ACPI mode, which is entered thru an SMI, triggered by Linux in acpi_enable(). SMIs which cause that Linux is interrupted and BIOS code is executed (which may change e.g. fixed-range MTRRs) in SMM may be raised by an embedded system controller which is often found in notebooks also at other occasions. If we would not update our copy of the fixed-range MTRRs before suspending to RAM or to disk, restore_processor_state() would set the fixed-range MTRRs of the BSP using old backup values which may be outdated and this could cause the system to fail later during resume. This patch ensures that our copy of the fixed-range MTRRs is updated when saving the boot processor state on suspend to disk and suspend to RAM. In combination with other patches this allows to fix s2ram and s2disk on the Acer Ferrari 1000 notebook and at least s2disk on the Acer Ferrari 5000 notebook.

* [PATCH] x86: Save the MTRRs of the BSP before booting an APBernhard Kaindl2007-05-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Applied fix by Andew Morton: http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/8/88 - Fix `make headers_check'. AMD and Intel x86 CPU manuals state that it is the responsibility of system software to initialize and maintain MTRR consistency across all processors in Multi-Processing Environments. Quote from page 188 of the AMD64 System Programming manual (Volume 2): 7.6.5 MTRRs in Multi-Processing Environments "In multi-processing environments, the MTRRs located in all processors must characterize memory in the same way. Generally, this means that identical values are written to the MTRRs used by the processors." (short omission here) "Failure to do so may result in coherency violations or loss of atomicity. Processor implementations do not check the MTRR settings in other processors to ensure consistency. It is the responsibility of system software to initialize and maintain MTRR consistency across all processors." Current Linux MTRR code already implements the above in the case that the BIOS does not properly initialize MTRRs on the secondary processors, but the case where the fixed-range MTRRs of the boot processor are changed after Linux started to boot, before the initialsation of a secondary processor, is not handled yet. In this case, secondary processors are currently initialized by Linux with MTRRs which the boot processor had very early, when mtrr_bp_init() did run, but not with the MTRRs which the boot processor uses at the time when that secondary processors is actually booted, causing differing MTRR contents on the secondary processors. Such situation happens on Acer Ferrari 1000 and 5000 notebooks where the BIOS enables and sets AMD-specific IORR bits in the fixed-range MTRRs of the boot processor when it transitions the system into ACPI mode. The SMI handler of the BIOS does this in SMM, entered while Linux ACPI code runs acpi_enable(). Other occasions where the SMI handler of the BIOS may change bits in the MTRRs could occur as well. To initialize newly booted secodary processors with the fixed-range MTRRs which the boot processor uses at that time, this patch saves the fixed-range MTRRs of the boot processor before new secondary processors are started. When the secondary processors run their Linux initialisation code, their fixed-range MTRRs will be updated with the saved fixed-range MTRRs. If CONFIG_MTRR is not set, we define mtrr_save_state as an empty statement because there is nothing to do. Possible TODOs: *) CPU-hotplugging outside of SMP suspend/resume is not yet tested with this patch. *) If, even in this case, an AP never runs i386/do_boot_cpu or x86_64/cpu_up, then the calls to mtrr_save_state() could be replaced by calls to mtrr_save_fixed_ranges(NULL) and mtrr_save_state() would not be needed. That would need either verification of the CPU-hotplug code or at least a test on a >2 CPU machine. *) The MTRRs of other running processors are not yet checked at this time but it might be interesting to syncronize the MTTRs of all processors before booting. That would be an incremental patch, but of rather low priority since there is no machine known so far which would require this.

* [PATCH] x86: Adds mtrr_save_fixed_ranges() for use in two later patches.Bernhard Kaindl2007-05-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In this current implementation which is used in other patches, mtrr_save_fixed_ranges() accepts a dummy void pointer because in the current implementation of one of these patches, this function may be called from smp_call_function_single() which requires that this function takes a void pointer argument. This function calls get_fixed_ranges(), passing mtrr_state.fixed_ranges which is the element of the static struct which stores our current backup of the fixed-range MTRR values which all CPUs shall be using. Because mtrr_save_fixed_ranges calls get_fixed_ranges after kernel initialisation time, __init needs to be removed from the declaration of get_fixed_ranges(). If CONFIG_MTRR is not set, we define mtrr_save_fixed_ranges as an empty statement because there is nothing to do.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Convert VMI timer to use clock events, making it properly able to use the NO_HZ infrastructure. On UP systems, with no local APIC, we just continue to route these events through the PIT. On systems with a local APIC, or SMP, we provide a single source interrupt chip which creates the local timer IRQ. It actually gets delivered by the APIC hardware, but we don't want to use the same local APIC clocksource processing, so we create our own handler here.

* [PATCH] i386: map enough initial memory to create lowmem mappingsJeremy Fitzhardinge2007-05-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | head.S creates the very initial pagetable for the kernel. This just maps enough space for the kernel itself, and an allocation bitmap. The amount of mapped memory is rounded up to 4Mbytes, and so this typically ends up mapping 8Mbytes of memory. When booting, pagetable_init() needs to create mappings for all lowmem, and the pagetables for these mappings are allocated from the free pages around the kernel in low memory. If the number of pagetable pages + kernel size exceeds head.S's initial mapping, it will end up faulting on an unmapped page. This will only happen with specific combinations of kernel size and memory size. This patch makes sure that head.S also maps enough space to fit the kernel pagetables as well as the kernel itself. It ends up using an additional two pages of unreclaimable memory. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@xensource.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Acked-by: "H.

* [PATCH] i386: Convert PDA into the percpu sectionJeremy Fitzhardinge2007-05-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently x86 (similar to x84-64) has a special per-cpu structure called "i386_pda" which can be easily and efficiently referenced via the %fs register. An ELF section is more flexible than a structure, allowing any piece of code to use this area. Indeed, such a section already exists: the per-cpu area. So this patch: (1) Removes the PDA and uses per-cpu variables for each current member. (2) Replaces the __KERNEL_PDA segment with __KERNEL_PERCPU. (3) Creates a per-cpu mirror of __per_cpu_offset called this_cpu_off, which can be used to calculate addresses for this CPU's variables. (4) Simplifies startup, because %fs doesn't need to be loaded with a special segment at early boot; it can be deferred until the first percpu area is allocated (or never for UP). The result is less code and one less x86-specific concept.

* [PATCH] i386: PARAVIRT: drop unused ptep_get_and_clearJeremy Fitzhardinge2007-05-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In shadow mode hypervisors, ptep_get_and_clear achieves the desired purpose of keeping the shadows in sync by issuing a native_get_and_clear, followed by a call to pte_update, which indicates the PTE has been modified. Direct mode hypervisors (Xen) have no need for this anyway, and will trap the update using writable pagetables. This means no hypervisor makes use of ptep_get_and_clear; there is no reason to have it in the paravirt-ops structure.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Xen and VMI both have special requirements when mapping a highmem pte page into the kernel address space. These can be dealt with by adding a new kmap_atomic_pte() function for mapping highptes, and hooking it into the paravirt_ops infrastructure. Xen specifically wants to map the pte page RO, so this patch exposes a helper function, kmap_atomic_prot, which maps the page with the specified page protections. This also adds a kmap_flush_unused() function to clear out the cached kmap mappings. Xen needs this to clear out any potential stray RW mappings of pages which will become part of a pagetable.

Linux running on native hardware uses cross-CPU IPIs to flush the TLB on any CPU which may have a particular mm's pagetable entries cached in its TLB.

Backends may implement their own patcher, however. There are several helper functions to help with this: paravirt_patch_nop nop out a callsite paravirt_patch_ignore leave the callsite as-is paravirt_patch_call patch a call if the caller and callee have compatible clobbers paravirt_patch_jmp patch in a jmp paravirt_patch_insns patch some literal instructions over the callsite, if they fit This patch also implements more direct patches for the native case, so that when running on native hardware many common operations are implemented inline.

This is used to remove replicated information in the various callsite macros, which has been a source of bugs in the past. This patch also drops the fused save_fl+cli operation, which doesn't really add much and makes things more complex - specifically because it breaks the 1:1 relationship between identifiers and offsets. If this operation turns out to be particularly beneficial, then the right answer is to define a new entrypoint for it.

They are: arch_dup_mmap, which is called when a new mmap is created at fork arch_exit_mmap, which is called when the last process reference to an mm is dropped, which typically happens on exit and exec. The third hook is activate_mm, which is called from the arch-specific activate_mm() macro/function, and so doesn't need stub versions for other architectures. It's called when an mm is first used.

* [PATCH] i386: PARAVIRT: Allow paravirt backend to choose kernel PMD sharingJeremy Fitzhardinge2007-05-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Normally when running in PAE mode, the 4th PMD maps the kernel address space, which can be shared among all processes (since they all need the same kernel mappings). Xen, however, does not allow guests to have the kernel pmd shared between page tables, so parameterize pgtable.c to allow both modes of operation. There are several side-effects of this. One is that vmalloc will update the kernel address space mappings, and those updates need to be propagated into all processes if the kernel mappings are not intrinsically shared. In the non-PAE case, this is done by maintaining a pgd_list of all processes; this list is used when all process pagetables must be updated. pgd_list is threaded via otherwise unused entries in the page structure for the pgd, which means that the pgd must be page-sized for this to work. Normally the PAE pgd is only 4x64 byte entries large, but Xen requires the PAE pgd to page aligned anyway, so this patch forces the pgd to be page aligned+sized when the kernel pmd is unshared, to accomodate both these requirements. Also, since there may be several distinct kernel pmds (if the user/kernel split is below 3G), there's no point in allocating them from a slab cache; they're just allocated with get_free_page and initialized appropriately. (Of course the could be cached if there is just a single kernel pmd - which is the default with a 3G user/kernel split - but it doesn't seem worthwhile to add yet another case into this code).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allocate a fixmap slot for use by a paravirt_ops implementation. This is intended for early-boot bootstrap mappings. Once the zones and allocator have been set up, it would be better to use get_vm_area() to allocate some virtual space. Xen uses this to map the hypervisor's shared info page, which doesn't have a pseudo-physical page number, and therefore can't be mapped ordinarily. It is needed early because it contains the vcpu state, including the interrupt mask.

* [PATCH] i386: PARAVIRT: Hooks to set up initial pagetableJeremy Fitzhardinge2007-05-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces paravirt_ops hooks to control how the kernel's initial pagetable is set up. In the case of a native boot, the very early bootstrap code creates a simple non-PAE pagetable to map the kernel and physical memory. When the VM subsystem is initialized, it creates a proper pagetable which respects the PAE mode, large pages, etc. When booting under a hypervisor, there are many possibilities for what paging environment the hypervisor establishes for the guest kernel, so the constructon of the kernel's pagetable depends on the hypervisor. In the case of Xen, the hypervisor boots the kernel with a fully constructed pagetable, which is already using PAE if necessary. Also, Xen requires particular care when constructing pagetables to make sure all pagetables are always mapped read-only. In order to make this easier, kernel's initial pagetable construction has been changed to only allocate and initialize a pagetable page if there's no page already present in the pagetable. This allows the Xen paravirt backend to make a copy of the hypervisor-provided pagetable, allowing the kernel to establish any more mappings it needs while keeping the existing ones. A slightly subtle point which is worth highlighting here is that Xen requires all kernel mappings to share the same pte_t pages between all pagetables, so that updating a kernel page's mapping in one pagetable is reflected in all other pagetables. This makes it possible to allocate a page and attach it to a pagetable without having to explicitly enumerate that page's mapping in all pagetables. And: +From: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com> If we don't set the leaf page table entries it is quite possible that will inherit and incorrect page table entry from the initial boot page table setup in head.S. So we need to redo the effort here, so we pick up PSE, PGE and the like. Hypervisors like Xen require that their page tables be read-only, which is slightly incompatible with our low identity mappings, however I discussed this with Jeremy he has modified the Xen early set_pte function to avoid problems in this area.
