* x86: introduce /dev/mem restrictions with a config optionArjan van de Ven2008-04-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces a restriction on /dev/mem: Only non-memory can be read or written unless the newly introduced config option is set. The X server needs access to /dev/mem for the PCI space, but it doesn't need access to memory; both the file permissions and SELinux permissions of /dev/mem just make X effectively super-super powerful. With the exception of the BIOS area, there's just no valid app that uses /dev/mem on actual memory. Other popular users of /dev/mem are rootkits and the like. (note: mmap access of memory via /dev/mem was already not allowed since a really long time) People who want to use /dev/mem for kernel debugging can enable the config option. The restrictions of this patch have been in the Fedora and RHEL kernels for at least 4 years without any problems.

* x86: implement true end_pfn_mapped for 32bitAndi Kleen2008-04-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Even on 32bit 2MB pages can map more memory than is in the true max_low_pfn if end_pfn is not highmem and not aligned to 2MB. Add a end_pfn_map similar to x86-64 that accounts for this fact. This is important for code that really needs to know about all mapping aliases.

| | | | | | | | | | | 64bit uses end_pfn_map and 32bit uses max_low_pfn. There are several files which have #ifdef'ed defines which map either to end_pfn_map or max_low_pfn.

* x86: page.h: make pte_t a union to always includeJeremy Fitzhardinge2008-01-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | Make sure pte_t, whatever its definition, has a pte element with type pteval_t. This allows common code to access it without needing to be specifically parameterised on what pagetable mode we're compiling for. For 32-bit, this means that pte_t becomes a union with "pte" and "{ pte_low, pte_high }" (PAE) or just "pte_low" (non-PAE).

Defines arch-specific types for the contents of a pagetable entry. That is, 32-bit entries for 32-bit non-PAE, and 64-bit entries for 32-bit PAE and 64-bit. However, even though the latter two are the same size, they're defined with different types in order to retain compatibility with printk format strings, etc. 2. Defines arch-specific pte_t. This is different because 32-bit PAE defines it in two halves, whereas 32-bit PAE and 64-bit define it as a single entry. All the other pagetable levels can be defined in a common way. This also defines arch-specific pte_val/make_pte functions. 3. Define PAGETABLE_LEVELS for each architecture variation, for later use. 4. Define common pagetable entry accessors in a paravirt-compatible way. (64-bit does not yet use paravirt-ops in any way). 5. Convert a few instances of using a *_val() as an lvalue where it is no longer a macro. There are still places in the 64-bit code which use pte_val() as an lvalue.
