Impact: keep kernel text read only
Because dynamic ftrace converts the calls to mcount into and out of
nops at run time, we needed to always keep the kernel text writable.
But this defeats the point of CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA. This patch converts
the kernel code to writable before ftrace modifies the text, and converts
it back to read only afterward.
The kernel text is converted to read/write, stop_machine is called to
modify the code, then the kernel text is converted back to read only.
The original version used SYSTEM_STATE to determine when it was OK
or not to change the code to rw or ro. Andrew Morton pointed out that
using SYSTEM_STATE is a bad idea since there is no guarantee to what
its state will actually be.
Instead, I moved the check into the set_kernel_text_* functions
themselves, and use a local variable to determine when it is
OK to change the kernel text RW permissions.

Impact: fix crash with memory hotplug enabled
kernel_physical_mapping_init() is called during memory hotplug
so it does not belong in the init section.
If the kernel is built with CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y on
the make command line, arch/x86/mm/init_64.c is compiled with
the -fno-inline-functions-called-once gcc option defeating
inlining of kernel_physical_mapping_init() within init_memory_mapping().
When kernel_physical_mapping_init() is not inlined it is placed
in the .init.text section according to the __init in it's current
declaration. A later call to kernel_physical_mapping_init() during
a memory hotplug operation encounters an int3 trap because the
.init.text section memory has been freed.
This patch eliminates the crash caused by the int3 trap by moving the
non-inlined kernel_physical_mapping_init() from .init.text to .meminit.text.

Device drivers that use pci_request_regions() (and similar APIs) have a
reasonable expectation that they are the only ones accessing their device.
As part of the e1000e hunt, we were afraid that some userland (X or some
bootsplash stuff) was mapping the MMIO region that the driver thought it
had exclusively via /dev/mem or via various sysfs resource mappings.
This patch adds the option for device drivers to cause their reserved
regions to the "banned from /dev/mem use" list, so now both kernel memory
and device-exclusive MMIO regions are banned.
NOTE: This is only active when CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM is set.
In addition to the config option, a kernel parameter iomem=relaxed is
provided for the cases where developers want to diagnose, in the field,
drivers issues from userspace.

Show node to memory section relationship with symlinks in sysfs
Add /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/memoryY symlinks for all
the memory sections located on nodeX. For example:
/sys/devices/system/node/node1/memory135 -> ../../memory/memory135
indicates that memory section 135 resides on node1.
Also revises documentation to cover this change as well as updating
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-memory to include descriptions
of memory hotremove files 'phys_device', 'phys_index', and 'state'
that were previously not described there.
In addition to it always being a good policy to provide users with
the maximum possible amount of physical location information for
resources that can be hot-added and/or hot-removed, the following
are some (but likely not all) of the user benefits provided by
this change.
Immediate:
- Provides information needed to determine the specific node
on which a defective DIMM is located. This will reduce system
downtime when the node or defective DIMM is swapped out.
- Prevents unintended onlining of a memory section that was
previously offlined due to a defective DIMM. This could happen
during node hot-add when the user or node hot-add assist script
onlines _all_ offlined sections due to user or script inability
to identify the specific memory sections located on the hot-added
node. The consequences of reintroducing the defective memory
could be ugly.
- Provides information needed to vary the amount and distribution
of memory on specific nodes for testing or debugging purposes.
Future:
- Will provide information needed to identify the memory
sections that need to be offlined prior to physical removal
of a specific node.
Symlink creation during boot was tested on 2-node x86_64, 2-node
ppc64, and 2-node ia64 systems. Symlink creation during physical
memory hot-add tested on a 2-node x86_64 system.

Use one of the software-defined PTE bits to indicate that a mapping is

since a physical address is a physical address. But in a virtual
environment, physical addresses are also virtualized, so there needs
to be some way to distinguish between pseudo-physical addresses and
actual hardware addresses; _PAGE_IOMAP indicates this intent.
By default, __supported_pte_mask masks out _PAGE_IOMAP, so it doesn't
even appear in the final pagetable.

Instead of making init a two pass sequence, to satisfy the Intel's TLB
Application note (developer.intel.com/design/processor/applnots/317080.pdf
Section 6 page 26), we preserve the original page permissions
when fragmenting the large mappings and don't touch the existing memory
mapping (which satisfies Xen's requirements).
Only open issue is: on a native linux kernel, we will go back to mapping
the first 0-1GB kernel identity mapping as executable (because of the
static mapping setup in head_64.S). We can fix this in a different
patch if needed.

In the first pass, kernel physical mapping will be setup using large or
small pages but uses the same PTE attributes as that of the early
PTE attributes setup by early boot code in head_[32|64].S
After flushing TLB's, we go through the second pass, which setups the
direct mapped PTE's with the appropriate attributes (like NX, GLOBAL etc)
which are runtime detectable.
This two pass mechanism conforms to the TLB app note which says:
"Software should not write to a paging-structure entry in a way that would
change, for any linear address, both the page size and either the page frame
or attributes."

This is often because set_pte_vaddr_pud lacks a __init

spp_getpage is called from __init (__init_extra_mapping) and
non __init (set_pte_vaddr_pud) functions, so it can't be __init.

Do we actually want these DirectMap lines in the x86 /proc/meminfo?
I can see they're interesting to CPA developers and TLB optimizers,
but they don't fit its usual "where has all my memory gone?" usage.
If they are to stay, here are some fixes.
1. On x86_32 without PAE, they're not 2M but 4M pages: no need to
mess with the internal enum, but show the right name to users.
2. Many machines can never show anything but 0 for DirectMap1G,
so suppress that line unless direct_gbpages are really enabled.
3. The unit in /proc/meminfo is kB not number of pages: HugePages
messed that up, but they're an example to regret not to follow.
4. Once we use kB, it's easy to see that 1GB has gone missing (which
explains why CONFIG_CPA_DEBUG=y soon wraps DirectMap2M negative):
because head_64.S's level2_ident_pgt entries were not counted.
My fix is not ideal, but works for more and for less than 1G,
and avoids interfering with early bootup pagetable contortions.

This makes a few of changes to the construction of the initial
pagetables to work better with paravirt_ops/Xen. The main areas
are:
1. Support non-PSE mapping of memory, since Xen doesn't currently
allow 2M pages to be mapped in guests.
2. Make sure that the ioremap alias of all pages are dropped before
attaching the new page to the pagetable. This avoids having
writable aliases of pagetable pages.
3. Preserve existing pagetable entries, rather than overwriting. Its
possible that a fair amount of pagetable has already been constructed,
so reuse what's already in place rather than ignoring and overwriting it.
The algorithm relies on the invariant that any page which is part of
the kernel pagetable is itself mapped in the linear memory area. This
way, it can avoid using ioremap on a pagetable page.
The invariant holds because it maps memory from low to high addresses,
and also allocates memory from low to high. Each allocated page can
map at least 2M of address space, so the mapped area will always
progress much faster than the allocated area. It relies on the early
boot code mapping enough pages to get started.

All architectures use an effectively identical definition of online_page(), so
just make it common code. x86-64, ia64, powerpc and sh are actually
identical; x86-32 is slightly different.
x86-32's differences arise because it puts its hotplug pages in the highmem
zone. We can handle this in the generic code by inspecting the page to see if
its in highmem, and update the totalhigh_pages count appropriately. This
leaves init_32.c:free_new_highpage with a single caller, so I folded it into
add_one_highpage_init.
I also removed an incorrect comment referring to the NUMA case; any NUMA
details have already been dealt with by the time online_page() is called.

This patch introduces a restriction on /dev/mem: Only non-memory can be
read or written unless the newly introduced config option is set.
The X server needs access to /dev/mem for the PCI space, but it doesn't need
access to memory; both the file permissions and SELinux permissions of /dev/mem
just make X effectively super-super powerful. With the exception of the
BIOS area, there's just no valid app that uses /dev/mem on actual memory.
Other popular users of /dev/mem are rootkits and the like.
(note: mmap access of memory via /dev/mem was already not allowed since
a really long time)
People who want to use /dev/mem for kernel debugging can enable the config
option.
The restrictions of this patch have been in the Fedora and RHEL kernels for
at least 4 years without any problems.

The AMD Fam10h CPUs support new Gigabyte page table entry for

Only done for 64bit because i386 does not support GB page tables.
This only applies to the data portion of the direct mapping; the

against using GB mappings for code.

recently the 64-bit allyesconfig bzImage kernel started spontaneously
rebooting during early bootup.
after a few fun hours spent with early init debugging, it turns out
that we've got this rather annoying limit on the size of the kernel
image:
#define KERNEL_TEXT_SIZE (40*1024*1024)
which limit my vmlinux just happened to pass:
text data bss dec hex filename
29703744 4222751 8646224 42572719 2899baf vmlinux
40 MB is 42572719 bytes, so my vmlinux was just 1.5% above this limit :-/
So it happily crashed right in head_64.S, which - as we all know - is
the most debuggable code in the whole architecture ;-)
So increase the limit to allow an up to 128MB kernel image to be mapped.
(should anyone be that crazy or lazy)
We have a full 4K of pagetable (level2_kernel_pgt) allocated for these
mappings already, so there's no RAM overhead and the limit was rather
pointless and arbitrary.
Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
The early boot code maps KERNEL_TEXT_SIZE (currently 40MB) starting
from __START_KERNEL_map. The kernel itself only needs _text to _end
mapped in the high alias. On relocatible kernels the ASM setup code
adjusts the compile time created high mappings to the relocation. This
creates invalid pmd entries for negative offsets:
0xffffffff80000000 -> pmd entry: ffffffffff2001e3
It points outside of the physical address space and is marked present.
This starts at the virtual address __START_KERNEL_map and goes up to
the point where the first valid physical address (0x0) is mapped.
Zap the mappings before _text and after _end right away in early
boot. This removes also the invalid entries.
Furthermore it simplifies the range check for high aliases.

DEBUG_PAGEALLOC was not possible on 64-bit due to its early-bootup
hardcoded reliance on PSE pages, and the unrobustness of the runtime
splitup of large pages. The splitup ended in recursive calls to
alloc_pages() when a page for a pte split was requested.
Avoid the recursion with a preallocated page pool, which is used to
split up large mappings and gets refilled in the return path of
kernel_map_pages after the split has been done. The size of the page
pool is adjusted to the available memory.
This part just implements the page pool and the initialization w/o
using it yet.

This patchset adds a flags variable to reserve_bootmem() and uses the
BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE flag in crashkernel reservation code to detect collisions
between crashkernel area and already used memory.
This patch:
Change the reserve_bootmem() function to accept a new flag BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE.
If that flag is set, the function returns with -EBUSY if the memory already
has been reserved in the past. This is to avoid conflicts.
Because that code runs before SMP initialisation, there's no race condition
inside reserve_bootmem_core().

Fix early_ioremap() on x86-64
I had ACPI failures on several machines since a few days. Symptom
was NUMA nodes not getting detected or worse cores not getting detected.
They all came from ACPI not being able to read various of its tables. I finally
bisected it down to Jeremy's "put _PAGE_GLOBAL into PAGE_KERNEL" change.
With that the fix was fairly obvious. The problem was that early_ioremap()
didn't use a "_all" flush that would affect the global PTEs too. So
with global bits getting used everywhere now an early_ioremap would
not actually flush a mapping if something else was mapped previously
on that slot (which can happen with early_iounmap inbetween)
This patch changes all flushes in init_64.c to be __flush_tlb_all()
and fixes the problem here.

On x86-64 there are several memory allocations before bootmem. To avoid
them stomping on each other they used to be all hard coded in bad_area().
Replace this with an array that is filled as needed.
This cleans up the code considerably and allows to expand its use.

empty_zero_page is in .bss section, and it is cleared in clear_bss by

This minor cleanup replaces _KERNPG_TABLE with the __PAGE_KERNEL* for 2MB PTEs
in the 64-bit memory initialization code. The __PAGE_KERNEL* defines are more
appropriate for PTEs.

Use sparsemem as the only memory model for UP, SMP and NUMA. Measurements
indicate that DISCONTIGMEM has a higher overhead than sparsemem. And
FLATMEMs benefits are minimal. So I think its best to simply standardize
on sparsemem.
Results of page allocator tests (test can be had via git from slab git
tree branch tests)
Measurements in cycle counts. 1000 allocations were performed and then the
average cycle count was calculated.

This reverts commit 2e1c49db4c.
First off, testing in Fedora has shown it to cause boot failures,
bisected down by Martin Ebourne, and reported by Dave Jobes. So the
commit will likely be reverted in the 2.6.23 stable kernels.
Secondly, in the 2.6.24 model, x86-64 has now grown support for
SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, which disables the relevant code anyway, so while the
bug is not visible any more, it's become invisible due to the code just
being irrelevant and no longer enabled on the only architecture that
this ever affected.

Now, arch dependent code around CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE is a mess.
This patch cleans up them. This is against 2.6.23-rc6-mm1.
- fix compile failure on ia64/ CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG && !CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE case.
- For !CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE, add generic no-op remove_memory(),
which returns -EINVAL.
- removed remove_pages() only used in powerpc.
- removed no-op remove_memory() in i386, sh, sparc64, x86_64.
- only powerpc returns -ENOSYS at memory hot remove(no-op). changes it
to return -EINVAL.
Note:
Currently, only ia64 supports CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE. I welcome other
archs if there are requirements and testers.

x86_64 uses 2M page table entries to map its 1-1 kernel space. We also
implement the virtual memmap using 2M page table entries. So there is no
additional runtime overhead over FLATMEM, initialisation is slightly more
complex. As FLATMEM still references memory to obtain the mem_map pointer and
SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP uses a compile time constant, SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP should be
superior.
With this SPARSEMEM becomes the most efficient way of handling virt_to_page,
pfn_to_page and friends for UP, SMP and NUMA on x86_64.
