On my Dell XPS 13 9350 with firmware 1.4.4 and SGX on, if I boot
Fedora 24's grub2-efi off a hard disk, my first 1MB of RAM looks
like:

My EBDA is at 0x2c000, which blocks off everything from 0x2c000 and
up, and my trampoline is 0x6000 bytes (6 pages), so it doesn't fit
in the loader data range at 0x28000.
Without this patch, it panics due to a failure to allocate the
trampoline. With this patch, it works:

The initialization process for trampoline_cr4_features and
mmu_cr4_features was confusing. The intent is for mmu_cr4_features
and *trampoline_cr4_features to stay in sync, but
trampoline_cr4_features is NULL until setup_real_mode() runs. The
old code synchronized *trampoline_cr4_features *twice*, once in
setup_real_mode() and once in setup_arch(). It also initialized
mmu_cr4_features in setup_real_mode(), which causes the actual value
of mmu_cr4_features to potentially depend on when setup_real_mode()
is called.
With this patch, mmu_cr4_features is initialized directly in
setup_arch(), and *trampoline_cr4_features is synchronized to
mmu_cr4_features when the trampoline is set up.
After this patch, it should be safe to defer setup_real_mode().

Since commit:
52aec3308d ("x86/tlb: replace INVALIDATE_TLB_VECTOR by CALL_FUNCTION_VECTOR")
the TLB remote shootdown is done through call function vector. That
commit didn't take care of irq_tlb_count, which a later commit:
fd0f586972 ("x86: Distinguish TLB shootdown interrupts from other functions call interrupts")
... tried to fix.
The fix assumes every increase of irq_tlb_count has a corresponding
increase of irq_call_count. So the irq_call_count is always bigger than
irq_tlb_count and we could substract irq_tlb_count from irq_call_count.
Unfortunately this is not true for the smp_call_function_single() case.
The IPI is only sent if the target CPU's call_single_queue is empty when
adding a csd into it in generic_exec_single. That means if two threads
are both adding flush tlb csds to the same CPU's call_single_queue, only
one IPI is sent. In other words, the irq_call_count is incremented by 1
but irq_tlb_count is incremented by 2. Over time, irq_tlb_count will be
bigger than irq_call_count and the substract will produce a very large
irq_call_count value due to overflow.
Considering that:
1) it's not worth to send more IPIs for the sake of accurate counting of
irq_call_count in generic_exec_single();
2) it's not easy to tell if the call function interrupt is for TLB
shootdown in __smp_call_function_single_interrupt().
Not to exclude TLB shootdown from call function count seems to be the
simplest fix and this patch just does that.
This bug was found by LKP's cyclic performance regression tracking recently
with the vm-scalability test suite. I have bisected to commit:
3dec0ba0be ("mm/rmap: share the i_mmap_rwsem")
This commit didn't do anything wrong but revealed the irq_call_count
problem. IIUC, the commit makes rwc->remap_one in rmap_walk_file
concurrent with multiple threads. When remap_one is try_to_unmap_one(),
then multiple threads could queue flush TLB to the same CPU but only
one IPI will be sent.
Since the commit was added in Linux v3.19, the counting problem only
shows up from v3.19 onwards.

Clearly QEMU is very permissive in how its PL310 model may be set up,
but the real hardware turns out to be far more particular about things
actually being correct. Fix up the DT description so that the real
thing actually boots:
- The arm,data-latency and arm,tag-latency properties need 3 cells to
be valid, otherwise we end up retaining the default 8-cycle latencies
which leads pretty quickly to lockup.
- The arm,dirty-latency property is only relevant to L210/L220, so get
rid of it.
- The cache geometry override also leads to lockup and/or general
misbehaviour. Irritatingly, the manual doesn't state the actual PL310
configuration, but based on the boardfile code and poking registers
from the Boot Monitor, it would seem to be 8 sets of 16KB ways.
With that, we can successfully boot to enjoy the fun of mismatched FPUs...

The Memory Protection Keys "rights register" (PKRU) is
XSAVE-managed, and is saved/restored along with the FPU state.
When kernel code accesses FPU regsisters, it does a delicate
dance with preempt. Otherwise, the context switching code can
get confused as to whether the most up-to-date state is in the
registers themselves or in the XSAVE buffer.
But, PKRU is not a normal FPU register. Using it does not
generate the normal device-not-available (#NM) exceptions which
means we can not manage it lazily, and the kernel completley
disallows using lazy mode when it is enabled.
The dance with preempt *only* occurs when managing the FPU
lazily. Since we never manage PKRU lazily, we do not have to do
the dance with preempt; we can access it directly. Doing it
this way saves a ton of complicated code (and is faster too).
Further, the XSAVES reenabling failed to patch a bit of code
in fpu__xfeature_set_state() the checked for compacted buffers.
That check caused fpu__xfeature_set_state() to silently refuse to
work when the kernel is using compacted XSAVE buffers. This
broke execute-only and future pkey_mprotect() support when using
compact XSAVE buffers.
But, removing fpu__xfeature_set_state() gets rid of this issue,
in addition to the nice cleanup and speedup.
This fixes the same thing as a fix that Sai posted:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/7/25/637
The fix that he posted is a much more obviously correct, but I
think we should just do this instead.

Building an X86_64 kernel with W=1 throws a total of 9,948 lines of warnings of

of the build for my config only generates 8,375 lines of output, this is a big
reduction in the warnings generated.
The warnings follow this pattern:
./arch/x86/include/generated/asm/syscalls_32.h:885:21: warning: initialized field overwritten [-Woverride-init]

There's a subtle preemption race on UP kernels:
Usually current->mm (and therefore mm->pgd) stays the same during the
lifetime of a task so it does not matter if a task gets preempted during
the read and write of the CR3.
But then, there is this scenario on x86-UP:
TaskA is in do_exit() and exit_mm() sets current->mm = NULL followed by:
-> mmput()
-> exit_mmap()
-> tlb_finish_mmu()
-> tlb_flush_mmu()
-> tlb_flush_mmu_tlbonly()
-> tlb_flush()
-> flush_tlb_mm_range()
-> __flush_tlb_up()
-> __flush_tlb()
-> __native_flush_tlb()
At this point current->mm is NULL but current->active_mm still points to
the "old" mm.
Let's preempt taskA _after_ native_read_cr3() by taskB. TaskB has its
own mm so CR3 has changed.
Now preempt back to taskA. TaskA has no ->mm set so it borrows taskB's
mm and so CR3 remains unchanged. Once taskA gets active it continues
where it was interrupted and that means it writes its old CR3 value
back. Everything is fine because userland won't need its memory
anymore.
Now the fun part:
Let's preempt taskA one more time and get back to taskB. This
time switch_mm() won't do a thing because oldmm (->active_mm)
is the same as mm (as per context_switch()). So we remain
with a bad CR3 / PGD and return to userland.
The next thing that happens is handle_mm_fault() with an address for
the execution of its code in userland. handle_mm_fault() realizes that
it has a PTE with proper rights so it returns doing nothing. But the
CPU looks at the wrong PGD and insists that something is wrong and
faults again. And again. And one more time…
This pagefault circle continues until the scheduler gets tired of it and
puts another task on the CPU. It gets little difficult if the task is a
RT task with a high priority. The system will either freeze or it gets
fixed by the software watchdog thread which usually runs at RT-max prio.
But waiting for the watchdog will increase the latency of the RT task
which is no good.
Fix this by disabling preemption across the critical code section.

change checking amongst other things. This has resulted in vdsos not
being rebuilt when switching between big and little endian.
The vdso64/32ld commands have to be changed around to avoid pulling

When we introduced the little endian support, we added the endian flags
to CC directly using override. I don't know the history of why we did
that, I suspect no one does.
Although this mostly works, it has one bug, which is that CROSS32CC
doesn't get -mbig-endian. That means when the compiler is little endian
by default and the user is building big endian, vdso32 is incorrectly
compiled as little endian and the kernel fails to build.
Instead we can add the endian flags to cflags-y/aflags-y, and then
append those to KBUILD_CFLAGS/KBUILD_AFLAGS.
This has the advantage of being 1) less ugly, 2) the documented way of
adding flags in the arch Makefile and 3) it fixes building vdso32 with a
LE toolchain.

The lbr_context logic confused me; it appears to me to try and do the
same thing the pmu::sched_task() callback does now, but limited to
per-task events.
So rip it out. Afaict this should also improve performance, because I
think the current code can end up doing lbr_reset() twice, once from
the pmu::add() and then again from pmu::sched_task(), and MSR writes
(all 3*16 of them) are expensive!!
While thinking through the cases that need the reset it occured to me
the first install of an event in an active context needs to reset the
LBR (who knows what crap is in there), but detecting this case is
