commit 9221222c717dbddac1e3c49906525475d87a3a44 upstream.
When running as a Xen PV dom0 the system needs to map ACPI data of the
host using host physical addresses, while those addresses can conflict
with the guest physical addresses of the loaded linux kernel. The same
problem might apply in case a PV guest is configured to use the host
memory map.
This conflict can be solved by mapping the ACPI data to a different
guest physical address, but mapping the data via acpi_os_ioremap()
must still be possible using the host physical address, as this
address might be generated by AML when referencing some of the ACPI
data.
When configured to support running as a Xen PV domain, have an
implementation of acpi_os_ioremap() being aware of the possibility to
need above mentioned translation of a host physical address to the
guest physical address.
This modification requires to #include linux/acpi.h in some sources
which need to include asm/acpi.h directly.

commit c4498ae316da5b5786ccd448fc555f3339b8e4ca upstream.
Move the checks for e820 memory map conflicts using the
xen_chk_is_e820_usable() helper further up in order to prepare
resolving some of the possible conflicts by doing some e820 map
modifications, which must happen before evaluating the RAM layout.

[ Upstream commit be35d91c8880650404f3bf813573222dfb106935 ]
In order to minimize required special handling for running as Xen PV
dom0, the memory layout is modified to match that of the host. This
requires to have only RAM at the locations where Xen allocated memory
is living. Unfortunately there seem to be some machines, where ACPI
NVS is located at 64 MB, resulting in a conflict with the loaded
kernel or the initial page tables built by Xen.
Avoid this conflict by swapping the ACPI NVS area in the memory map
with unused RAM. This is possible via modification of the dom0 P2M map.
Accesses to the ACPI NVS area are done either for saving and restoring
it across suspend operations (this will work the same way as before),
or by ACPI code when NVS memory is referenced from other ACPI tables.
The latter case is handled by a Xen specific indirection of
acpi_os_ioremap().
While the E820 map can (and should) be modified right away, the P2M
map can be updated only after memory allocation is working, as the P2M
map might need to be extended.

[ Upstream commit d05208cf7f05420ad10cc7f9550f91d485523659 ]
When running as a Xen PV dom0 it can happen that the kernel is being
loaded to a guest physical address conflicting with the host memory
map.
In order to be able to resolve this conflict, add the capability to
remap non-RAM areas to different guest PFNs. A function to use this
remapping information for other purposes than doing the remap will be
added when needed.
As the number of conflicts should be rather low (currently only
machines with max. 1 conflict are known), save the remap data in a
small statically allocated array.

[ Upstream commit 43dc2a0f479b9cd30f6674986d7a40517e999d31 ]
Instead of having max_pfn as a local variable of xen_memory_setup(),
make it a static variable in setup.c instead. This avoids having to
pass it to subfunctions, which will be needed in more cases in future.
Rename it to ini_nr_pages, as the value denotes the currently usable
number of memory pages as passed from the hypervisor at boot time.

[ Upstream commit ba88829706e2c5b7238638fc2b0713edf596495e ]
When booting as a Xen PV dom0 the memory layout of the dom0 is
modified to match that of the host, as this requires less changes in
the kernel for supporting Xen.
There are some cases, though, which are problematic, as it is the Xen
hypervisor selecting the kernel's load address plus some other data,
which might conflict with the host's memory map.
These conflicts are detected at boot time and result in a boot error.
In order to support handling at least some of these conflicts in
future, introduce a generic helper function which will later gain the
ability to adapt the memory layout when possible.
Add the missing check for the xen_start_info area.
Note that possible p2m map and initrd memory conflicts are handled
already by copying the data to memory areas not conflicting with the
memory map. The initial stack allocated by Xen doesn't need to be
checked, as early boot code is switching to the statically allocated
initial kernel stack. Initial page tables and the kernel itself will
be handled later.

[ Upstream commit fac1bceeeb04886fc2ee952672e6e6c85ce41dca ]
When running as a Xen PV dom0 the kernel is loaded by the hypervisor
using a different memory map than that of the host. In order to
minimize the required changes in the kernel, the kernel adapts its
memory map to that of the host. In order to do that it is checking
for conflicts of its load address with the host memory map.
Unfortunately the tested memory range does not include the .brk
area, which might result in crashes or memory corruption when this
area does conflict with the memory map of the host.
Fix the test by using the _end label instead of __bss_stop.

We have some very fancy min/max macros that have tons of sanity checking
to warn about mixed signedness etc.
This is all things that a sane compiler should warn about, but there are
no sane compiler interfaces for this, and '-Wsign-compare' is broken [1]
and not useful.
So then we compensate (some would say over-compensate) by doing the
checks manually with some truly horrid macro games.
And no, we can't just use __builtin_types_compatible_p(), because the
whole question of "does it make sense to compare these two values" is a
lot more complicated than that.
For example, it makes a ton of sense to compare unsigned values with
simple constants like "5", even if that is indeed a signed type. So we
have these very strange macros to try to make sensible type checking
decisions on the arguments to 'min()' and 'max()'.
But that can cause enormous code expansion if the min()/max() macros are
used with complicated expressions, and particularly if you nest these
things so that you get the first big expansion then expanded again.
The xen setup.c file ended up ballooning to over 50MB of preprocessed
noise that takes 15s to compile (obviously depending on the build host),
largely due to one single line.
So let's split that one single line to just be simpler. I think it ends
up being more legible to humans too at the same time. Now that single
file compiles in under a second.

The current usage of memblock_reserve() in init_pvh_bootparams() is done before
the .bss is zeroed, and that used to be fine when
memblock_reserved_init_regions implicitly ended up in the .meminit.data
section. However after commit 73db3abdca58c memblock_reserved_init_regions
ends up in the .bss section, thus breaking it's usage before the .bss is
cleared.
Move and rename the call to xen_reserve_extra_memory() so it's done in the
x86_init.oem.arch_setup hook, which gets executed after the .bss has been
zeroed, but before calling e820__memory_setup().

Today Xen multicall debugging needs to be enabled via modifying a
define in a source file for getting debug data of multicall errors
encountered by users.
Switch multicall debugging to depend on a boot parameter "xen_mc_debug"
instead, enabling affected users to boot with the new parameter set in
order to get better diagnostics.
With debugging enabled print the following information in case at least
one of the batched calls failed:
- all calls of the batch with operation, result and caller
- all parameters of each call
- all parameters stored in the multicall data for each call

|
|
Commit 262fc47ac174 ('xen/balloon: don't use PV mode extra memory for zone
device allocations') removed the addition of the extra memory ranges to the
unpopulated range allocator, using those only for the balloon driver.
This forces the unpopulated allocator to attach hotplug ranges even when spare
memory (as part of the extra memory ranges) is available. Furthermore, on PVH
domains it defeats the purpose of commit 38620fc4e893 ('x86/xen: attempt to
inflate the memory balloon on PVH'), as extra memory ranges would only be
used to map foreign memory if the kernel is built without XEN_UNPOPULATED_ALLOC
support.
Fix this by adding a helpers that adds the extra memory ranges to the list of
unpopulated pages, and zeroes the ranges so they are not also consumed by the
balloon driver.
This should have been part of 38620fc4e893, hence the fixes tag.
Note the current logic relies on unpopulated_init() (and hence
arch_xen_unpopulated_init()) always being called ahead of balloon_init(), so
that the extra memory regions are consumed by arch_xen_unpopulated_init().

Use try_cmpxchg() instead of cmpxchg(*ptr, old, new) == old.
The x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns success in the ZF flag,
so this change saves a compare after CMPXCHG.
Also, try_cmpxchg() implicitly assigns old *ptr value to "old"
when CMPXCHG fails. There is no need to explicitly assign
old *ptr value to the temporary, which can simplify the
surrounding source code.
No functional change intended.

The topology core expects the boot APIC to be registered from earhy APIC
detection first and then again when the firmware tables are evaluated. This
is used for detecting the real BSP CPU on a kexec kernel.
The recent conversion of XEN/PV to register fake APIC IDs failed to
register the boot CPU APIC correctly as it only registers it once. This
causes the BSP detection mechanism to trigger wrongly:
CPU topo: Boot CPU APIC ID not the first enumerated APIC ID: 0 > 1
Additionally this results in one CPU being ignored.
Register the boot CPU APIC twice so that the XEN/PV fake enumeration
behaves like real firmware.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames
from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series
"implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390".
- More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series
"Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios"
"mm: convert mm counter to take a folio"
- Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing
significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable
reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the
scalability of zswap rb-tree".
- Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap
lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some
swap-intensive situations.
- And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap:
optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest.
- zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series
"mm: zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()".
- In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has
contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to
control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is
hotplugged as system memory.
- Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups",
which does that.
- More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series
"mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable"
"selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases"
"Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements"
"mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself"
- In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving
policy wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion
rather than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory
environments appearing with CXL.
- Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work
against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump:
Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute".
- Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the
series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests".
- Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its
human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol")
format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party
tools to parse and process out selftesting results.
- Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the
series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly
targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the
process has a large number of pte-mapped folios.
- David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his
series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It
implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown
situations. The microbenchmark improvements are nice.
- And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings"
Ryan Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte
mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's
series "Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work.
- In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has
fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page
faults. He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code.
- In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction
test", Mark Brown did what the title claims.
- Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and
refactoring".
- Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend
zswap kselftests" does as claimed.
- In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX
regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess
in our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing
data caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary.
- Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides
dramatic improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during
certain userfaultfd operations.
- Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador
in his series
"page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations"
"page_owner: Fixup and cleanup"
- Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability
improvements in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It
realizes a 12x improvement for a certain microbenchmark.
- Some kexec/crash cleanup work from Baoquan He in the series "Split
crash out from kexec and clean up related config items".
- Some zsmalloc maintenance work from Chengming Zhou in the series
"mm/zsmalloc: fix and optimize objects/page migration"
"mm/zsmalloc: some cleanup for get/set_zspage_mapping()"
- Zi Yan has taught the MM to perform compaction on folios larger than
order=0. This a step along the path to implementaton of the merging
of large anonymous folios. The series is named "Enable >0 order folio
memory compaction".
- Christoph Hellwig has done quite a lot of cleanup work in the
pagecache writeback code in his series "convert write_cache_pages()
to an iterator".
- Some modest hugetlb cleanups and speedups in Vishal Moola's series
"Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock".
- Zi Yan has changed the page splitting code so we can split huge pages
into sizes other than order-0 to better utilize large folios. The
series is named "Split a folio to any lower order folios".
- David Hildenbrand has contributed the series "mm: remove
total_mapcount()", a cleanup.
- Matthew Wilcox has sought to improve the performance of bulk memory
freeing in his series "Rearrange batched folio freeing".
- Gang Li's series "hugetlb: parallelize hugetlb page init on boot"
provides large improvements in bootup times on large machines which
are configured to use large numbers of hugetlb pages.
- Matthew Wilcox's series "PageFlags cleanups" does that.
- Qi Zheng's series "minor fixes and supplement for ptdesc" does that
also. S390 is affected.
- Cleanups to our pagemap utility functions from Peter Xu in his series
"mm/treewide: Replace pXd_large() with pXd_leaf()".
- Nico Pache has fixed a few things with our hugepage selftests in his
series "selftests/mm: Improve Hugepage Test Handling in MM
Selftests".
- Also, of course, many singleton patches to many things. Please see
the individual changelogs for details.

When running as PVH or HVM Linux will use holes in the memory map as scratch
space to map grants, foreign domain pages and possibly miscellaneous other
stuff. However the usage of such memory map holes for Xen purposes can be
problematic. The request of holesby Xen happen quite early in the kernel boot
process (grant table setup already uses scratch map space), and it's possible
that by then not all devices have reclaimed their MMIO space. It's not
unlikely for chunks of Xen scratch map space to end up using PCI bridge MMIO
window memory, which (as expected) causes quite a lot of issues in the system.
At least for PVH dom0 we have the possibility of using regions marked as
UNUSABLE in the e820 memory map. Either if the region is UNUSABLE in the
native memory map, or it has been converted into UNUSABLE in order to hide RAM
regions from dom0, the second stage translation page-tables can populate those
areas without issues.
PV already has this kind of logic, where the balloon driver is inflated at
boot. Re-use the current logic in order to also inflate it when running as
PVH. onvert UNUSABLE regions up to the ratio specified in EXTRA_MEM_RATIO to
RAM, while reserving them using xen_add_extra_mem() (which is also moved so
it's no longer tied to CONFIG_PV).

Pull core x86 updates from Ingo Molnar:
- The biggest change is the rework of the percpu code, to support the
'Named Address Spaces' GCC feature, by Uros Bizjak:
- This allows C code to access GS and FS segment relative memory
via variables declared with such attributes, which allows the
compiler to better optimize those accesses than the previous
inline assembly code.
- The series also includes a number of micro-optimizations for
various percpu access methods, plus a number of cleanups of %gs
accesses in assembly code.
- These changes have been exposed to linux-next testing for the
last ~5 months, with no known regressions in this area.
- Fix/clean up __switch_to()'s broken but accidentally working handling
of FPU switching - which also generates better code
- Propagate more RIP-relative addressing in assembly code, to generate
slightly better code
- Rework the CPU mitigations Kconfig space to be less idiosyncratic, to
make it easier for distros to follow & maintain these options
- Rework the x86 idle code to cure RCU violations and to clean up the
logic
- Clean up the vDSO Makefile logic
- Misc cleanups and fixes

Pull x86 FRED support from Thomas Gleixner:
"Support for x86 Fast Return and Event Delivery (FRED).
FRED is a replacement for IDT event delivery on x86 and addresses most
of the technical nightmares which IDT exposes:
1) Exception cause registers like CR2 need to be manually preserved
in nested exception scenarios.
2) Hardware interrupt stack switching is suboptimal for nested
exceptions as the interrupt stack mechanism rewinds the stack on
each entry which requires a massive effort in the low level entry
of #NMI code to handle this.
3) No hardware distinction between entry from kernel or from user
which makes establishing kernel context more complex than it needs
to be especially for unconditionally nestable exceptions like NMI.
4) NMI nesting caused by IRET unconditionally reenabling NMIs, which
is a problem when the perf NMI takes a fault when collecting a
stack trace.
5) Partial restore of ESP when returning to a 16-bit segment
6) Limitation of the vector space which can cause vector exhaustion
on large systems.
7) Inability to differentiate NMI sources
FRED addresses these shortcomings by:
1) An extended exception stack frame which the CPU uses to save
exception cause registers. This ensures that the meta information
for each exception is preserved on stack and avoids the extra
complexity of preserving it in software.
2) Hardware interrupt stack switching is non-rewinding if a nested
exception uses the currently interrupt stack.
3) The entry points for kernel and user context are separate and GS
BASE handling which is required to establish kernel context for
per CPU variable access is done in hardware.
4) NMIs are now nesting protected. They are only reenabled on the
return from NMI.
5) FRED guarantees full restore of ESP
6) FRED does not put a limitation on the vector space by design
because it uses a central entry points for kernel and user space
and the CPUstores the entry type (exception, trap, interrupt,
syscall) on the entry stack along with the vector number. The
entry code has to demultiplex this information, but this removes
the vector space restriction.
The first hardware implementations will still have the current
restricted vector space because lifting this limitation requires
further changes to the local APIC.
7) FRED stores the vector number and meta information on stack which
allows having more than one NMI vector in future hardware when the
required local APIC changes are in place.
The series implements the initial FRED support by:
- Reworking the existing entry and IDT handling infrastructure to
accomodate for the alternative entry mechanism.
- Expanding the stack frame to accomodate for the extra 16 bytes FRED
requires to store context and meta information
- Providing FRED specific C entry points for events which have
information pushed to the extended stack frame, e.g. #PF and #DB.
- Providing FRED specific C entry points for #NMI and #MCE
- Implementing the FRED specific ASM entry points and the C code to
demultiplex the events
- Providing detection and initialization mechanisms and the necessary
tweaks in context switching, GS BASE handling etc.
The FRED integration aims for maximum code reuse vs the existing IDT
implementation to the extent possible and the deviation in hot paths
like context switching are handled with alternatives to minimalize the
impact. The low level entry and exit paths are seperate due to the
extended stack frame and the hardware based GS BASE swichting and
therefore have no impact on IDT based systems.
It has been extensively tested on existing systems and on the FRED
simulation and as of now there are no outstanding problems"

As TOP_OF_KERNEL_STACK_PADDING was defined as 0 on x86_64, it went
unnoticed that the initialization of the .sp field in INIT_THREAD and some
calculations in the low level startup code do not take the padding into
account.
FRED enabled kernels require a 16 byte padding, which means that the init
task initialization and the low level startup code use the wrong stack
offset.
Subtract TOP_OF_KERNEL_STACK_PADDING in all affected places to adjust for
this.
