There is no useful information within [STARTUP_NORMAL_OFFSET, HEAD_END] now. But the memory region [0, STARTUP_NORMAL_OFFSET] is used by: * lowcore * kdump for swapping memory * stand-alone zipl dumpers for code, data, stack and heap Signed-off-by: Alexander Egorenkov <egorenar@linux.ibm.com> Acked-by: Heiko Carstens <hca@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <hca@linux.ibm.com>

This change simplifies the task of making the decompressor relocatable. The decompressor's image contains special DMA sections between _sdma and _edma. This DMA segment is loaded at boot as part of the decompressor and then simply handed over to the decompressed kernel. The decompressor itself never uses it in any way. The primary reason for this is the need to keep the aforementioned DMA segment below 2GB which is required by architecture, and because the decompressor is always loaded at a fixed low physical address, it is guaranteed that the DMA region will not cross the 2GB memory limit. If the DMA region had been placed in the decompressed kernel, then KASLR would make this guarantee impossible to fulfill or it would be restricted to the first 2GB of memory address space. This commit moves all DMA sections between _sdma and _edma from the decompressor's image to the decompressed kernel's image. The complete DMA region is placed in the init section of the decompressed kernel and immediately relocated below 2GB at start-up before it is needed by other parts of the decompressed kernel. The relocation of the DMA region happens even if the decompressed kernel is already located below 2GB in order to keep the first implementation simple. The relocation should not have any noticeable impact on boot time because the DMA segment is only a couple of pages. After relocating the DMA sections, the kernel has to fix all references which point into it. In order to automate this, place all variables pointing into the DMA sections in a special .dma.refs section. All such variables must be defined using the new __dma_ref macro. Only variables containing addresses within the DMA sections must be placed in the new .dma.refs section. Furthermore, move the initialization of control registers from the decompressor to the decompressed kernel because some control registers reference tables that must be placed in the DMA data section to guarantee that their addresses are below 2G. Because the decompressed kernel relocates the DMA sections at startup, the content of control registers CR2, CR5 and CR15 must be updated with new addresses after the relocation. The decompressed kernel initializes all control registers early at boot and then updates the content of CR2, CR5 and CR15 as soon as the DMA relocation has occurred. This practically reverts the commit a80313ff ("s390/kernel: introduce .dma sections").

As a preparation for moving the .dma.data section from the decompressor to the decompressed kernel, the .dma.data section must be made relocatable by replacing absolute memory addressing with relative one. This is required in order to be able to relocate the DMA section to a memory address <= 2G as required by the hardware architecture. The DMA section must be relocated in case the decompressed kernel was loaded to an address >= 2G which can occur if KASAN is enabled. By making the whole DMA section position-independent we avoid applying relocations to it whenever it is moved to a different address, which becomes possible as soon as it becomes a part of the decompressed kernel.

To make the decompressor relocatable, the early SCLP buffer with a fixed address must be replaced with a relocatable C buffer of the according size and alignment as required by SCLP. Introduce a new function sclp_early_set_buffer() into the SCLP driver which enables the decompressor to change the SCLP early buffer at any time. This will be useful when the decompressor becomes fully relocatable and might need to change the SCLP early buffer to one with an address < 2G as required by SCLP because it was loaded at an address >= 2G.

A buffer that can be used for communication with SCLP is required to lie below 2GB memory address. Therefore, both sclp_info_sccb and sclp_early_sccb must fulfill this requirement if passed directly to the sclp_early_cmd() function. Instead, use only sclp_early_sccb for communication with SCLP. This allows the buffer sclp_info_sccb to be placed anywhere in the memory address space and, therefore, simplifies the process of making the decompressor relocatable later on, one thing less to relocate. And make sure that the length of the new unified early SCLP buffer is no less than the length of the removed sclp_info_sccb buffer which might be larger than the length of the sclp_early_sccb buffer.

Instead of using constant addresses for the normal and dump-info stacks, allocate both stacks in the decompressor's image and load the stack register in a position-independent manner. This will allow loading and entering the decompressor at an arbitrary memory address without corrupting the content at the fixed addresses used until now for both stacks. This is one of the prerequisites for being able to kexec the decompressor from its load address without relocating it first.

gcc doesn't care, but clang quite reasonably pointed out that the recent commit e9ba16e6 ("smpboot: Mark idle_init() as __always_inlined to work around aggressive compiler un-inlining") did some really odd things: kernel/smpboot.c:50:20: warning: duplicate 'inline' declaration specifier [-Wduplicate-decl-specifier] static inline void __always_inline idle_init(unsigned int cpu) ^ which not only has that duplicate inlining specifier, but the new __always_inline was put in the wrong place of the function definition. We put the storage class specifiers (ie things like "static" and "extern") first, and the type information after that. And while the compiler may not care, we put the inline specifier before the types. So it should be just static __always_inline void idle_init(unsigned int cpu) instead.

Commit 71f64283 ("ACPI: utils: Fix reference counting in for_each_acpi_dev_match()") started doing "acpi_dev_put()" on a pointer that was possibly NULL. That fails miserably, because that helper inline function is not set up to handle that case. Just make acpi_dev_put() silently accept a NULL pointer, rather than calling down to put_device() with an invalid offset off that NULL pointer.
