      There is only one user but since we're going to bury MTRR next
      out of access to drivers, expose this last piece of API to
      drivers in a general fashion only needing io.h for access to
      helpers.

      x86/mm/mtrr: Enhance MTRR checks in kernel mapping helpers · b73522e0
      Toshi Kani authored
      This patch adds the argument 'uniform' to mtrr_type_lookup(),
      which gets set to 1 when a given range is covered uniformly by
      MTRRs, i.e. the range is fully covered by a single MTRR entry or
      the default type.
      
      Change pud_set_huge() and pmd_set_huge() to honor the 'uniform'
      flag to see if it is safe to create a huge page mapping in the
      range.
      
      This allows them to create a huge page mapping in a range
      covered by a single MTRR entry of any memory type. It also
      detects a non-optimal request properly. They continue to check
      with the WB type since it does not effectively change the
      uniform mapping even if a request spans multiple MTRR entries.
      
      pmd_set_huge() logs a warning message to a non-optimal request
      so that driver writers will be aware of such a case. Drivers
      should make a mapping request aligned to a single MTRR entry
      when the range is covered by MTRRs.

      x86/mm/mtrr: Fix MTRR state checks in mtrr_type_lookup() · 9b3aca62
      Toshi Kani authored
      'mtrr_state.enabled' contains the FE (fixed MTRRs enabled)
      and E (MTRRs enabled) flags in MSR_MTRRdefType.  Intel SDM,
      section 11.11.2.1, defines these flags as follows:
      
       - All MTRRs are disabled when the E flag is clear.
         The FE flag has no affect when the E flag is clear.
       - The default type is enabled when the E flag is set.
       - MTRR variable ranges are enabled when the E flag is set.
       - MTRR fixed ranges are enabled when both E and FE flags
         are set.
      
      MTRR state checks in __mtrr_type_lookup() do not match with SDM.
      
      Hence, this patch makes the following changes:
       - The current code detects MTRRs disabled when both E and
         FE flags are clear in mtrr_state.enabled.  Fix to detect
         MTRRs disabled when the E flag is clear.
       - The current code does not check if the FE bit is set in
         mtrr_state.enabled when looking at the fixed entries.
         Fix to check the FE flag.
       - The current code returns the default type when the E flag
         is clear in mtrr_state.enabled. However, the default type
         is UC when the E flag is clear.  Remove the code as this
         case is handled as MTRR disabled with the 1st change.
      
      In addition, this patch defines the E and FE flags in
      mtrr_state.enabled as follows.
       - FE flag: MTRR_STATE_MTRR_FIXED_ENABLED
       - E  flag: MTRR_STATE_MTRR_ENABLED
      
      print_mtrr_state() and x86_get_mtrr_mem_range() are also updated
      accordingly.

      Add arch_phys_wc_{add, del} to manipulate WC MTRRs if needed · d0d98eed
      Andy Lutomirski authored
      Several drivers currently use mtrr_add through various #ifdef guards
      and/or drm wrappers.  The vast majority of them want to add WC MTRRs
      on x86 systems and don't actually need the MTRR if PAT (i.e.
      ioremap_wc, etc) are working.
      
      arch_phys_wc_add and arch_phys_wc_del are new functions, available
      on all architectures and configurations, that add WC MTRRs on x86 if
      needed (and handle errors) and do nothing at all otherwise.  They're
      also easier to use than mtrr_add and mtrr_del, so the call sites can
      be simplified.
      
      As an added benefit, this will avoid wasting MTRRs and possibly
      warning pointlessly on PAT-supporting systems.

      x86, pat/mtrr: Rendezvous all the cpus for MTRR/PAT init · d0af9eed
      Suresh Siddha authored
      SDM Vol 3a section titled "MTRR considerations in MP systems" specifies
      the need for synchronizing the logical cpu's while initializing/updating
      MTRR.
      
      Currently Linux kernel does the synchronization of all cpu's only when
      a single MTRR register is programmed/updated. During an AP online
      (during boot/cpu-online/resume)  where we initialize all the MTRR/PAT registers,
      we don't follow this synchronization algorithm.
      
      This can lead to scenarios where during a dynamic cpu online, that logical cpu
      is initializing MTRR/PAT with cache disabled (cr0.cd=1) etc while other logical
      HT sibling continue to run (also with cache disabled because of cr0.cd=1
      on its sibling).
      
      Starting from Westmere, VMX transitions with cr0.cd=1 don't work properly
      (because of some VMX performance optimizations) and the above scenario
      (with one logical cpu doing VMX activity and another logical cpu coming online)
      can result in system crash.
      
      Fix the MTRR initialization by doing rendezvous of all the cpus. During
      boot and resume, we delay the MTRR/PAT init for APs till all the
      logical cpu's come online and the rendezvous process at the end of AP's bringup,
      will initialize the MTRR/PAT for all AP's.
      
      For dynamic single cpu online, we synchronize all the logical cpus and
      do the MTRR/PAT init on the AP that is coming online.

      x86: consolidate header guards · 77ef50a5
      Vegard Nossum authored
      This patch is the result of an automatic script that consolidates the
      format of all the headers in include/asm-x86/.
      
      The format:
      
      1. No leading underscore. Names with leading underscores are reserved.
      2. Pathname components are separated by two underscores. So we can
         distinguish between mm_types.h and mm/types.h.
      3. Everything except letters and numbers are turned into single
         underscores.

      x86, 32-bit: trim memory not covered by wb mtrrs · 99fc8d42
      Jesse Barnes authored
      On some machines, buggy BIOSes don't properly setup WB MTRRs to cover all
      available RAM, meaning the last few megs (or even gigs) of memory will be
      marked uncached.  Since Linux tends to allocate from high memory addresses
      first, this causes the machine to be unusably slow as soon as the kernel
      starts really using memory (i.e.  right around init time).
      
      This patch works around the problem by scanning the MTRRs at boot and
      figuring out whether the current end_pfn value (setup by early e820 code)
      goes beyond the highest WB MTRR range, and if so, trimming it to match.  A
      fairly obnoxious KERN_WARNING is printed too, letting the user know that
      not all of their memory is available due to a likely BIOS bug.
      
      Something similar could be done on i386 if needed, but the boot ordering
      would be slightly different, since the MTRR code on i386 depends on the
      boot_cpu_data structure being setup.
      
      This patch fixes a bug in the last patch that caused the code to run on
      non-Intel machines (AMD machines apparently don't need it and it's untested
      on other non-Intel machines, so best keep it off).

      x86: mtrr use type bool [RESEND AGAIN] · 2d2ee8de
      Paul Jimenez authored
      This is a janitorish patch to 1) remove private TRUE/FALSE #def's in
      favor of using the standard enum from linux/stddef.h and 2) switch the
      variables holding those values to type 'bool' (from linux/types.h)
      since it both seems more appropriate and allows for potentially better
      optimization.
      
      As a truly minor aside, I removed a couple of comments documenting
      a 'do_safe' parameter that seems to no longer exist.
