Move the reservation of low memory, except for the 4K which actually does belong to the BIOS, later in the initialization; in particular, after we have already reserved the trampoline. The current code locates the trampoline as high as possible, so by deferring the allocation we will still be able to reserve as much memory as is possible. This allows us to run with reservelow=640k without getting a crash on system startup. Signed-off-by: H.

Instead of using a bitfield, use an odd little trick using typeof, __builtin_choose_expr, and sizeof. __builtin_choose_expr is explicitly defined to not convert its type (its argument is required to be a constant expression) so this should be well-defined. The code is still not 100% preturbation-free versus the baseline before 64-bit get_user(), but the differences seem to be very small, mostly related to padding and to gcc deciding when to spill registers.

Even though it is never executed, gcc wants to warn for casting from a large integer to a pointer. Furthermore, using a variable with __typeof__() doesn't work because __typeof__ retains storage specifiers (const, restrict, volatile). However, we can declare a bitfield using sizeof(), which is legal because sizeof() is a constant expression. This quiets the warning, although the code generated isn't 100% identical from the baseline before 96477b4c x86-32: Add support for 64bit get_user(): [x86-mb is baseline, x86-mm is this commit] text data bss filename 113716147 15858380 35037184 tip.x86-mb/o.i386-allconfig/vmlinux 113716145 15858380 35037184 tip.x86-mm/o.i386-allconfig/vmlinux 12989837 3597944 12255232 tip.x86-mb/o.i386-modconfig/vmlinux 12989831 3597944 12255232 tip.x86-mm/o.i386-modconfig/vmlinux 1462784 237608 1401988 tip.x86-mb/o.i386-noconfig/vmlinux 1462837 237608 1401964 tip.x86-mm/o.i386-noconfig/vmlinux 7938994 553688 7639040 tip.x86-mb/o.i386-pae/vmlinux 7943136 557784 7639040 tip.x86-mm/o.i386-pae/vmlinux 7186126 510572 6574080 tip.x86-mb/o.i386/vmlinux 7186124 510572 6574080 tip.x86-mm/o.i386/vmlinux 103747269 33578856 65888256 tip.x86-mb/o.x86_64-allconfig/vmlinux 103746949 33578856 65888256 tip.x86-mm/o.x86_64-allconfig/vmlinux 12116695 11035832 20160512 tip.x86-mb/o.x86_64-modconfig/vmlinux 12116567 11035832 20160512 tip.x86-mm/o.x86_64-modconfig/vmlinux 1700790 380524 511808 tip.x86-mb/o.x86_64-noconfig/vmlinux 1700790 380524 511808 tip.x86-mm/o.x86_64-noconfig/vmlinux 12413612 1133376 1101824 tip.x86-mb/o.x86_64/vmlinux 12413484 1133376 1101824 tip.x86-mm/o.x86_64/vmlinux Cc: Jamie Lokier <jamie@shareable.org> Cc: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@linux.intel.com> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Russell King <linux@arm.linux.org.uk> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20130209110031.GA17833@n2100.arm.linux.org.ukSigned-off-by: H.

Implement __get_user_8() for x86-32. It will return the 64-bit result in edx:eax register pair, and ecx is used to pass in the address and return the error value. For consistency, change the register assignment for all other __get_user_x() variants, so that address is passed in ecx/rcx, the error value is returned in ecx/rcx, and eax/rax contains the actual value. [ hpa: I modified the patch so that it does NOT change the calling conventions for the existing callsites, this also means that the code is completely unchanged for 64 bits. Instead, continue to use eax for address input/error output and use the ecx:edx register pair for the output. ] This is a partial refresh of a patch [1] by Jamie Lokier from 2004. Only the minimal changes to implement 64bit get_user() were picked from the original patch.

This code was an optimization for 32-bit NUMA systems. It has probably been the cause of a number of subtle bugs over the years, although the conditions to excite them would have been hard to trigger. Essentially, we remap part of the kernel linear mapping area, and then sometimes part of that area gets freed back in to the bootmem allocator. If those pages get used by kernel data structures (say mem_map[] or a dentry), there's no big deal. But, if anyone ever tried to use the linear mapping for these pages _and_ cared about their physical address, bad things happen. For instance, say you passed __GFP_ZERO to the page allocator and then happened to get handed one of these pages, it zero the remapped page, but it would make a pte to the _old_ page. There are probably a hundred other ways that it could screw with things. We don't need to hang on to performance optimizations for these old boxes any more. All my 32-bit NUMA systems are long dead and buried, and I probably had access to more than most people. This code is causing real things to break today: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/1/9/376 I looked in to actually fixing this, but it requires surgery to way too much brittle code, as well as stuff like per_cpu_ptr_to_phys(). [ hpa: Cc: this for -stable, since it is a memory corruption issue. However, an alternative is to simply mark NUMA as depends BROKEN rather than EXPERIMENTAL in the X86_32 subclause... ] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20130131005616.1C79F411@kernel.stglabs.ibm.comSigned-off-by: H.

Normal boot path on system with iommu support: swiotlb buffer will be allocated early at first and then try to initialize iommu, if iommu for intel or AMD could setup properly, swiotlb buffer will be freed. The early allocating is with bootmem, and could panic when we try to use kdump with buffer above 4G only, or with memmap to limit mem under 4G. for example: memmap=4095M$1M to remove memory under 4G. According to Eric, add _nopanic version and no_iotlb_memory to fail map single later if swiotlb is still needed. -v2: don't pass nopanic, and use -ENOMEM return value according to Eric. panic early instead of using swiotlb_full to panic...according to Eric/Konrad. -v3: make swiotlb_init to be notpanic, but will affect: arm64, ia64, powerpc, tile, unicore32, x86. -v4: cleanup swiotlb_init by removing swiotlb_init_with_default_size.

According to hpa, we can not change startup_64 position and that is an ABI. We could move function verify_cpu and no_longmode down, because verify_cpu is used via function call and no_longmode will not return, then we don't need to add extra code for jumping back.

boot/compressed/misc.c is used for bzImage in 64bit and 32bit, and cmd_line_ptr could point to buffer that is above 4g, cmd_line_ptr should be 64bit otherwise high 32bit will be capped out. So need to change data type to unsigned long, that will be 64bit get correct address of command line buffer. And it is still ok with 32bit bzImage, because unsigned long on 32bit kernel is still 32bit.

cmdline.c::__cmdline_find_option... are shared between 16-bit setup code and 32/64 bit decompressor code. for 32/64 only path via kexec, we should not check if ptr is less 1M. as those cmdline could be put above 1M, or even 4G. Move out accessible checking out of __cmdline_find_option() So decompressor in misc.c can parse cmdline correctly.

There are several places to find ramdisk information early for reserving and relocating. Use accessor functions to make code more readable and consistent. Later will add ext_ramdisk_image/size in those functions to support loading ramdisk above 4g.

They are the same, could move them out from head32/64.c to setup.c. We are using memblock, and it could handle overlapping properly, so we don't need to reserve some at first to hold the location, and just need to make sure we reserve them before we are using memblock to find free mem to use.

We are not having max_pfn_mapped set correctly until init_memory_mapping. So don't print its initial value for 64bit Also need to use KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE directly for highmap cleanup. -v2: update comments about max_pfn_mapped according to Stefano Stabellini.

We only map a single 2 MiB page per #PF, even though we should be able to do this a full gigabyte at a time with no additional memory cost. This is a workaround for a broken AMD reference BIOS (and its derivatives in shipping system) which maps a large chunk of memory as WB in the MTRR system but will #MC if the processor wanders off and tries to prefetch that memory, which can happen any time the memory is mapped in the TLB.

Linear mode (CR0.PG = 0) is mutually exclusive with 64-bit mode; all 64-bit code has to use page tables. This makes it awkward before we have first set up properly all-covering page tables to access objects that are outside the static kernel range. So far we have dealt with that simply by mapping a fixed amount of low memory, but that fails in at least two upcoming use cases: 1. We will support load and run kernel, struct boot_params, ramdisk, command line, etc. above the 4 GiB mark. 2. need to access ramdisk early to get microcode to update that as early possible. We could use early_iomap to access them too, but it will make code to messy and hard to be unified with 32 bit. Hence, set up a #PF table and use a fixed number of buffers to set up page tables on demand. If the buffers fill up then we simply flush them and start over. These buffers are all in __initdata, so it does not increase RAM usage at runtime. Thus, with the help of the #PF handler, we can set the final kernel mapping from blank, and switch to init_level4_pgt later. During the switchover in head_64.S, before #PF handler is available, we use three pages to handle kernel crossing 1G, 512G boundaries with sharing page by playing games with page aliasing: the same page is mapped twice in the higher-level tables with appropriate wraparound. The kernel region itself will be properly mapped; other mappings may be spurious. early_make_pgtable is using kernel high mapping address to access pages to set page table. -v4: Add phys_base offset to make kexec happy, and add init_mapping_kernel() - Yinghai -v5: fix compiling with xen, and add back ident level3 and level2 for xen also move back init_level4_pgt from BSS to DATA again. because we have to clear it anyway. - Yinghai -v6: switch to init_level4_pgt in init_mem_mapping. - Yinghai -v7: remove not needed clear_page for init_level4_page it is with fill 512,8,0 already in head_64.S - Yinghai -v8: we need to keep that handler alive until init_mem_mapping and don't let early_trap_init to trash that early #PF handler. So split early_trap_pf_init out and move it down. - Yinghai -v9: switchover only cover kernel space instead of 1G so could avoid touch possible mem holes. - Yinghai -v11: change far jmp back to far return to initial_code, that is needed to fix failure that is reported by Konrad on AMD systems. - Yinghai Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1359058816-7615-12-git-send-email-yinghai@kernel.orgSigned-off-by: H.

After we switch to use #PF handler help to set page table, init_level4_pgt will only have entries set after init_mem_mapping(). We need to move copying init_level4_pgt to trampoline_pgd after that. So split reserve and setup, and move the setup after init_mem_mapping() Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1359058816-7615-11-git-send-email-yinghai@kernel.org Cc: Jarkko Sakkinen <jarkko.sakkinen@intel.com> Acked-by: Jarkko Sakkinen <jarkko.sakkinen@intel.com> Signed-off-by: H.

with #PF handler way to set early page table, level3_ident will go away with 64bit native path. So just use entries in init_level4_pgt to set them in trampoline_pgd.
