We use pat_enabled in x86-specific code to see if PAT is enabled
or not but we're granting full access to it even though readers
do not need to set it. If, for instance, we granted access to it
to modules later they then could override the variable
setting... no bueno.
This renames pat_enabled to a new static variable __pat_enabled.
Folks are redirected to use pat_enabled() now.
Code that sets this can only be internal to pat.c. Apart from
the early kernel parameter "nopat" to disable PAT, we also have
a few cases that disable it later and make use of a helper
pat_disable(). It is wrapped under an ifdef but since that code
cannot run unless PAT was enabled its not required to wrap it
with ifdefs, unwrap that. Likewise, since "nopat" doesn't really
change non-PAT systems just remove that ifdef as well.
Although we could add and use an early_param_off(), these
helpers don't use __read_mostly but we want to keep
__read_mostly for __pat_enabled as this is a hot path -- upon
boot, for instance, a simple guest may see ~4k accesses to
pat_enabled(). Since __read_mostly early boot params are not
that common we don't add a helper for them just yet.

So 6 years ago we made the FPU fpstate dynamically allocated:
aa283f4927 ("x86, fpu: lazy allocation of FPU area - v5")
61c4628b53 ("x86, fpu: split FPU state from task struct - v5")
In hindsight this was a mistake:
- it complicated context allocation failure handling, such as:
/* kthread execs. TODO: cleanup this horror. */
if (WARN_ON(fpstate_alloc_init(fpu)))
force_sig(SIGKILL, tsk);
- it caused us to enable irqs in fpu__restore():
local_irq_enable();
/*
* does a slab alloc which can sleep
*/
if (fpstate_alloc_init(fpu)) {
/*
* ran out of memory!
*/
do_group_exit(SIGKILL);
return;
}
local_irq_disable();
- it (slightly) slowed down task creation/destruction by adding
slab allocation/free pattens.
- it made access to context contents (slightly) slower by adding
one more pointer dereference.
The motivation for the dynamic allocation was two-fold:
- reduce memory consumption by non-FPU tasks
- allocate and handle only the necessary amount of context for
various XSAVE processors that have varying hardware frame
sizes.
These days, with glibc using SSE memcpy by default and GCC optimizing
for SSE/AVX by default, the scope of FPU using apps on an x86 system is
much larger than it was 6 years ago.
For example on a freshly installed Fedora 21 desktop system, with a
recent kernel, all non-kthread tasks have used the FPU shortly after
bootup.
Also, even modern embedded x86 CPUs try to support the latest vector
instruction set - so they'll too often use the larger xstate frame
sizes.
So remove the dynamic allocation complication by embedding the FPU
fpstate in task_struct again. This should make the FPU a lot more
accessible to all sorts of atomic contexts.
We could still optimize for the xstate frame size in the future,
by moving the state structure to the last element of task_struct,
and allocating only a part of that.
This change is kept minimal by still keeping the ctx_alloc()/free()
routines (that now do nothing substantial) - we'll remove them in
the following patches.

So fpu_save_init() is a historic name that got its name when the only
way the FPU state was FNSAVE, which cleared (well, destroyed) the FPU
state after saving it.
Nowadays the name is misleading, because ever since the introduction of
FXSAVE (and more modern FPU saving instructions) the 'we need to reload
the FPU state' part is only true if there's a pending FPU exception [*],
which is almost never the case.
So rename it to copy_fpregs_to_fpstate() to make it clear what's
happening. Also add a few comments about why we cannot keep registers
in certain cases.
Also clean up the control flow a bit, to make it more apparent when
we are dropping/keeping FP registers, and to optimize the common
case (of keeping fpregs) some more.
[*] Probably not true anymore, modern instructions always leave the FPU
state intact, even if exceptions are pending: because pending FP
exceptions are posted on the next FP instruction, not asynchronously.
They were truly asynchronous back in the IRQ13 case, and we had to
synchronize with them, but that code is not working anymore: we don't
have IRQ13 mapped in the IDT anymore.
But a cleanup patch is obviously not the place to change subtle behavior.

ioremap_nocache() currently uses UC- by default. Our goal is to
eventually make UC the default. Linux maps UC- to PCD=1, PWT=0
page attributes on non-PAT systems. Linux maps UC to PCD=1,
PWT=1 page attributes on non-PAT systems. On non-PAT and PAT
systems a WC MTRR has different effects on pages with either of
these attributes. In order to help with a smooth transition its
best to enable use of UC (PCD,1, PWT=1) on a region as that
ensures a WC MTRR will have no effect on a region, this however
requires us to have an way to declare a region as UC and we
currently do not have a way to do this.
WC MTRR on non-PAT system with PCD=1, PWT=0 (UC-) yields WC.
WC MTRR on non-PAT system with PCD=1, PWT=1 (UC) yields UC.
WC MTRR on PAT system with PCD=1, PWT=0 (UC-) yields WC.
WC MTRR on PAT system with PCD=1, PWT=1 (UC) yields UC.
A flip of the default ioremap_nocache() behaviour from UC- to UC
can therefore regress a memory region from effective memory type
WC to UC if MTRRs are used. Use of MTRRs should be phased out
and in the best case only arch_phys_wc_add() use will remain,
even if this happens arch_phys_wc_add() will have an effect on
non-PAT systems and changes to default ioremap_nocache()
behaviour could regress drivers.
Now, ideally we'd use ioremap_nocache() on the regions in which
we'd need uncachable memory types and avoid any MTRRs on those
regions. There are however some restrictions on MTRRs use, such
as the requirement of having the base and size of variable sized
MTRRs to be powers of two, which could mean having to use a WC
MTRR over a large area which includes a region in which
write-combining effects are undesirable.
Add ioremap_uc() to help with the both phasing out of MTRR use
and also provide a way to blacklist small WC undesirable regions
in devices with mixed regions which are size-implicated to use
large WC MTRRs. Use of ioremap_uc() helps phase out MTRR use by
avoiding regressions with an eventual flip of default behaviour
or ioremap_nocache() from UC- to UC.
Drivers working with WC MTRRs can use the below table to review
and consider the use of ioremap*() and similar helpers to ensure
appropriate behaviour long term even if default
ioremap_nocache() behaviour changes from UC- to UC.
Although ioremap_uc() is being added we leave set_memory_uc() to
use UC- as only initial memory type setup is required to be able
to accommodate existing device drivers and phase out MTRR use.
It should also be clarified that set_memory_uc() cannot be used
with IO memory, even though its use will not return any errors,
it really has no effect.

Memtest is a simple feature which fills the memory with a given set of
patterns and validates memory contents, if bad memory regions is detected
it reserves them via memblock API. Since memblock API is widely used by
other architectures this feature can be enabled outside of x86 world.
This patch set promotes memtest to live under generic mm umbrella and
enables memtest feature for arm/arm64.
It was reported that this patch set was useful for tracking down an issue
with some errant DMA on an arm64 platform.
This patch (of 6):
There is nothing platform dependent in the core memtest code, so other
platforms might benefit from this feature too.

Implement huge KVA mapping interfaces on x86.
On x86, MTRRs can override PAT memory types with a 4KB granularity. When
using a huge page, MTRRs can override the memory type of the huge page,
which may lead a performance penalty. The processor can also behave in an
undefined manner if a huge page is mapped to a memory range that MTRRs
have mapped with multiple different memory types. Therefore, the mapping
code falls back to use a smaller page size toward 4KB when a mapping range
is covered by non-WB type of MTRRs. The WB type of MTRRs has no affect on
the PAT memory types.
pud_set_huge() and pmd_set_huge() call mtrr_type_lookup() to see if a
given range is covered by MTRRs. MTRR_TYPE_WRBACK indicates that the
range is either covered by WB or not covered and the MTRR default value is
set to WB. 0xFF indicates that MTRRs are disabled.
HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP is selected when X86_64 or X86_32 with X86_PAE is set.
X86_32 without X86_PAE is not supported since such config can unlikey be
benefited from this feature, and there was an issue found in testing.

This is caused by writing over the end of numa mask bitmap
in numa_clear_kernel_node().
numa_clear_kernel_node() tries to set the node id in a mask bitmap,
by iterating all reserved regions and assuming that every region
has a valid nid.
This assumption is not true because there's an exception for some
graphic memory quirks. See trim_snb_memory() in arch/x86/kernel/setup.c
It is easily to reproduce the bug in the kdump kernel because kdump
kernel use pre-reserved memory instead of the whole memory, but
kexec pass other reserved memory ranges to 2nd kernel as well.
like below in my test:
kdump kernel ram 0x2d000000 - 0x37bfffff
One of the reserved regions: 0x40000000 - 0x40100000 which
includes 0x40004000, a page excluded in trim_snb_memory(). For
this memblock reserved region the nid is not set, it is still
default value MAX_NUMNODES. later node_set will set bit
MAX_NUMNODES thus stack corruption happen.
This also happens when booting with mem= kernel commandline
during my test.
Fixing it by adding a check, do not call node_set in case nid is
MAX_NUMNODES.

random_variable = get_random_int() & STACK_RND_MASK;
random_variable <<= PAGE_SHIFT;
}
return PAGE_ALIGN(stack_top) + random_variable;
return PAGE_ALIGN(stack_top) - random_variable;
}
Note that, it declares the "random_variable" variable as "unsigned int".
Since the result of the shifting operation between STACK_RND_MASK (which
is 0x3fffff on x86_64, 22 bits) and PAGE_SHIFT (which is 12 on x86_64):
random_variable <<= PAGE_SHIFT;
then the two leftmost bits are dropped when storing the result in the
"random_variable". This variable shall be at least 34 bits long to hold
the (22+12) result.
These two dropped bits have an impact on the entropy of process stack.
Concretely, the total stack entropy is reduced by four: from 2^28 to
2^30 (One fourth of expected entropy).
This patch restores back the entropy by correcting the types involved
in the operations in the functions randomize_stack_top() and
stack_maxrandom_size().
The successful fix can be tested with:
$ for i in `seq 1 10`; do cat /proc/self/maps | grep stack; done
7ffeda566000-7ffeda587000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack]
7fff5a332000-7fff5a353000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack]
7ffcdb7a1000-7ffcdb7c2000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack]
7ffd5e2c4000-7ffd5e2e5000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack]
...
Once corrected, the leading bytes should be between 7ffc and 7fff,
rather than always being 7fff.

With 32-bit non-PAE kernels, we have 2 page sizes available
(at most): 4k and 4M.
Enabling PAE replaces that 4M size with a 2M one (which 64-bit
systems use too).
But, when booting a 32-bit non-PAE kernel, in one of our
early-boot printouts, we say:
init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x00000000-0x000fffff]
[mem 0x00000000-0x000fffff] page 4k
init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x37000000-0x373fffff]
[mem 0x37000000-0x373fffff] page 2M
init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x00100000-0x36ffffff]
[mem 0x00100000-0x003fffff] page 4k
[mem 0x00400000-0x36ffffff] page 2M
init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x37400000-0x377fdfff]
[mem 0x37400000-0x377fdfff] page 4k
Which is obviously wrong. There is no 2M page available. This
is probably because of a badly-named variable: in the map_range
code: PG_LEVEL_2M.
Instead of renaming all the PG_LEVEL_2M's. This patch just
fixes the printout:
init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x00000000-0x000fffff]
[mem 0x00000000-0x000fffff] page 4k
init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x37000000-0x373fffff]
[mem 0x37000000-0x373fffff] page 4M
init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x00100000-0x36ffffff]
[mem 0x00100000-0x003fffff] page 4k
[mem 0x00400000-0x36ffffff] page 4M
init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x37400000-0x377fdfff]
[mem 0x37400000-0x377fdfff] page 4k

STRICT_DEVMEM and PAT produce same failure accessing /dev/mem,
which is quite confusing to the user. Make printk messages
different to lessen confusion.
