| | * | | x86: implement x86_32 stack protectorTejun Heo2009-02-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: stack protector for x86_32 Implement stack protector for x86_32. GDT entry 28 is used for it. It's set to point to stack_canary-20 and have the length of 24 bytes. CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR turns off CONFIG_X86_32_LAZY_GS and sets %gs to the stack canary segment on entry. As %gs is otherwise unused by the kernel, the canary can be anywhere. It's defined as a percpu variable. x86_32 exception handlers take register frame on stack directly as struct pt_regs. With -fstack-protector turned on, gcc copies the whole structure after the stack canary and (of course) doesn't copy back on return thus losing all changed. For now, -fno-stack-protector is added to all files which contain those functions. We definitely need something better.

| | * | | x86: use linker to offset symbols by __per_cpu_loadBrian Gerst2009-02-09

For various reasons, it cannot also load the gdt at that time. It does, however, have a pefectly functional gdt at that point, so there's no pressing need to reload the gdt.

| | | | * | x86: filter CPU features dependent on unavailable CPUID levelsH. Peter Anvin2009-01-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: Fixes potential crashes on misconfigured systems. Some CPU features require specific CPUID levels to be available in order to function, as they contain information about the operation of a specific feature. However, some BIOSes and virtualization software provide the ability to mask CPUID levels in order to support legacy operating systems. We try to enable such CPUID levels when we know how to do it, but for the remaining cases, filter out such CPU features when there is no way for us to support them. Do this in one place, in the CPUID code, with a table-driven approach. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@linux.intel.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Based on original patch from Christoph Lameter and Mike Travis. ] As pda is now allocated in percpu area, it can easily be made a proper percpu variable.

This patch folds pda into percpu area. Due to strange gcc requirement, pda needs to be at the beginning of the percpu area so that pda->stack_canary is at %gs:40. To achieve this, a new percpu output section macro - PERCPU_VADDR_PREALLOC() - is added and used to reserve pda sized chunk at the start of the percpu area. After this change, for boot cpu, %gs first points to pda in the data.init area and later during setup_per_cpu_areas() gets updated to point to the actual pda. This means that setup_per_cpu_areas() need to reload %gs for CPU0 while clearing pda area for other cpus as cpu0 already has modified it when control reaches setup_per_cpu_areas(). This patch also removes now unnecessary get_local_pda() and its call sites. A lot of this patch is taken from Mike Travis' "x86_64: Fold pda into per cpu area" patch.

This avoids multiple calls to the hypervisor detection function. This patch adds function to detect if we are running under VMware. The current way to check if we are on VMware is following, # check if "hypervisor present bit" is set, if so read the 0x40000000 cpuid leaf and check for "VMwareVMware" signature. # if the above fails, check the DMI vendors name for "VMware" string if we find one we query the VMware hypervisor port to check if we are under VMware. The DMI + "VMware hypervisor port check" is needed for older VMware products, which don't implement the hypervisor signature cpuid leaf. Also note that since we are checking for the DMI signature the hypervisor port should never be accessed on native hardware. This patch also adds a hypervisor_get_tsc_freq function, instead of calibrating the frequency which can be error prone in virtualized environment, we ask the hypervisor for it. We get the frequency from the hypervisor by accessing the hypervisor port if we are running on VMware. Other hypervisors too can add code to the generic routine to get frequency on their platform.

|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement performance counters for x86 Intel CPUs. It's simplified right now: the PERFMON CPU feature is assumed, which is available in Core2 and later Intel CPUs. The design is flexible to be extended to more CPU types as well.

Unfortunately, voyager has never initialised this, although the only noticeable impact seems to be that /proc/cpuinfo shows all zeros for the processor ids. Anyway, fix this by initialising the boot CPU properly and setting the index when the secondaries update.
