[PATCH] i386: PARAVIRT: Hooks to set up initial pagetable This patch introduces paravirt_ops hooks to control how the kernel's initial pagetable is set up. In the case of a native boot, the very early bootstrap code creates a simple non-PAE pagetable to map the kernel and physical memory. When the VM subsystem is initialized, it creates a proper pagetable which respects the PAE mode, large pages, etc. When booting under a hypervisor, there are many possibilities for what paging environment the hypervisor establishes for the guest kernel, so the constructon of the kernel's pagetable depends on the hypervisor. In the case of Xen, the hypervisor boots the kernel with a fully constructed pagetable, which is already using PAE if necessary. Also, Xen requires particular care when constructing pagetables to make sure all pagetables are always mapped read-only. In order to make this easier, kernel's initial pagetable construction has been changed to only allocate and initialize a pagetable page if there's no page already present in the pagetable. This allows the Xen paravirt backend to make a copy of the hypervisor-provided pagetable, allowing the kernel to establish any more mappings it needs while keeping the existing ones. A slightly subtle point which is worth highlighting here is that Xen requires all kernel mappings to share the same pte_t pages between all pagetables, so that updating a kernel page's mapping in one pagetable is reflected in all other pagetables. This makes it possible to allocate a page and attach it to a pagetable without having to explicitly enumerate that page's mapping in all pagetables. And: +From: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com> If we don't set the leaf page table entries it is quite possible that will inherit and incorrect page table entry from the initial boot page table setup in head.S. So we need to redo the effort here, so we pick up PSE, PGE and the like. Hypervisors like Xen require that their page tables be read-only, which is slightly incompatible with our low identity mappings, however I discussed this with Jeremy he has modified the Xen early set_pte function to avoid problems in this area.

[PATCH] i386: PARAVIRT: Hooks to set up initial pagetable This patch introduces paravirt_ops hooks to control how the kernel's initial pagetable is set up. In the case of a native boot, the very early bootstrap code creates a simple non-PAE pagetable to map the kernel and physical memory. When the VM subsystem is initialized, it creates a proper pagetable which respects the PAE mode, large pages, etc. When booting under a hypervisor, there are many possibilities for what paging environment the hypervisor establishes for the guest kernel, so the constructon of the kernel's pagetable depends on the hypervisor. In the case of Xen, the hypervisor boots the kernel with a fully constructed pagetable, which is already using PAE if necessary. Also, Xen requires particular care when constructing pagetables to make sure all pagetables are always mapped read-only. In order to make this easier, kernel's initial pagetable construction has been changed to only allocate and initialize a pagetable page if there's no page already present in the pagetable. This allows the Xen paravirt backend to make a copy of the hypervisor-provided pagetable, allowing the kernel to establish any more mappings it needs while keeping the existing ones. A slightly subtle point which is worth highlighting here is that Xen requires all kernel mappings to share the same pte_t pages between all pagetables, so that updating a kernel page's mapping in one pagetable is reflected in all other pagetables. This makes it possible to allocate a page and attach it to a pagetable without having to explicitly enumerate that page's mapping in all pagetables. And: +From: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com> If we don't set the leaf page table entries it is quite possible that will inherit and incorrect page table entry from the initial boot page table setup in head.S. So we need to redo the effort here, so we pick up PSE, PGE and the like. Hypervisors like Xen require that their page tables be read-only, which is slightly incompatible with our low identity mappings, however I discussed this with Jeremy he has modified the Xen early set_pte function to avoid problems in this area.

[PATCH] reduce MAX_NR_ZONES: remove two strange uses of MAX_NR_ZONES I keep seeing zones on various platforms that are never used and wonder why we compile support for them into the kernel. Counters show up for HIGHMEM and DMA32 that are alway zero. This patch allows the removal of ZONE_DMA32 for non x86_64 architectures and it will get rid of ZONE_HIGHMEM for arches not using highmem (like 64 bit architectures). If an arch does not define CONFIG_HIGHMEM then ZONE_HIGHMEM will not be defined. Similarly if an arch does not define CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32 then ZONE_DMA32 will not be defined. No current architecture uses all the 4 zones (DMA,DMA32,NORMAL,HIGH) that we have now. The patchset will reduce the number of zones for all platforms. On many platforms that do not have DMA32 or HIGHMEM this will reduce the number of zones by 50%. F.e. ia64 only uses DMA and NORMAL. Large amounts of memory can be saved for larger systemss that may have a few hundred NUMA nodes. With ZONE_DMA32 and ZONE_HIGHMEM support optional MAX_NR_ZONES will be 2 for many non i386 platforms and even for i386 without CONFIG_HIGHMEM set. Tested on ia64, x86_64 and on i386 with and without highmem. The patchset consists of 11 patches that are following this message. One could go even further than this patchset and also make ZONE_DMA optional because some platforms do not need a separate DMA zone and can do DMA to all of memory. This could reduce MAX_NR_ZONES to 1. Such a patchset will hopefully follow soon. This patch: Fix strange uses of MAX_NR_ZONES Sometimes we use MAX_NR_ZONES - x to refer to a zone. Make that explicit.

[PATCH] x86: SMP alternatives Implement SMP alternatives, i.e. switching at runtime between different code versions for UP and SMP. The code can patch both SMP->UP and UP->SMP. The UP->SMP case is useful for CPU hotplug. With CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG enabled the code switches to UP at boot time and when the number of CPUs goes down to 1, and switches to SMP when the number of CPUs goes up to 2. Without CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG or on non-SMP-capable systems the code is patched once at boot time (if needed) and the tables are released afterwards. The changes in detail: * The current alternatives bits are moved to a separate file, the SMP alternatives code is added there. * The patch adds some new elf sections to the kernel: .smp_altinstructions like .altinstructions, also contains a list of alt_instr structs. .smp_altinstr_replacement like .altinstr_replacement, but also has some space to save original instruction before replaving it. .smp_locks list of pointers to lock prefixes which can be nop'ed out on UP. The first two are used to replace more complex instruction sequences such as spinlocks and semaphores. It would be possible to deal with the lock prefixes with that as well, but by handling them as special case the table sizes become much smaller. * The sections are page-aligned and padded up to page size, so they can be free if they are not needed. * Splitted the code to release init pages to a separate function and use it to release the elf sections if they are unused.
