This patch adds /sys/firmware/memmap interface that represents the BIOS
(or Firmware) provided memory map. The tree looks like:
/sys/firmware/memmap/0/start (hex number)
end (hex number)
type (string)
... /1/start
end
type
With the following shell snippet one can print the memory map in the same form
the kernel prints itself when booting on x86 (the E820 map).
--------- 8< --------------------------
#!/bin/sh
cd /sys/firmware/memmap
for dir in * ; do
start=$(cat $dir/start)
end=$(cat $dir/end)
type=$(cat $dir/type)
printf "%016x-%016x (%s)\n" $start $[ $end +1] "$type"
done
--------- >8 --------------------------
That patch only provides the needed interface:
1. The sysfs interface.
2. The structure and enumeration definition.
3. The function firmware_map_add() and firmware_map_add_early()
that should be called from architecture code (E820/EFI, for
example) to add the contents to the interface.
If the kernel is compiled without CONFIG_FIRMWARE_MEMMAP, the interface does
nothing without cluttering the architecture-specific code with #ifdef's.
The purpose of the new interface is kexec: While /proc/iomem represents
the *used* memory map (e.g. modified via kernel parameters like 'memmap'
and 'mem'), the /sys/firmware/memmap tree represents the unmodified memory
map provided via the firmware. So kexec can:
- use the original memory map for rebooting,
- use the /proc/iomem for setting up the ELF core headers for kdump
case that should only represent the memory of the system.
The patch has been tested on i386 and x86_64.

Rather than using _PAGE_GLOBAL - which not all CPUs support - to test
CPA, use one of the reserved-for-software-use PTE flags instead. This
allows CPA testing to work on CPUs which don't support PGD.

From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com>
Older x86-32 processors do not support global mappings (PGD), so must
only use it if the processor supports it.
The _PAGE_KERNEL* flags always have _PAGE_KERNEL set, since logically
we always want it set.
This is OK even on processors which do not support PGD, since all
_PAGE flags are masked with __supported_pte_mask before being turned
into a real in-pagetable pte. On 32-bit systems, __supported_pte_mask
is initialized to not contain _PAGE_GLOBAL, and it is then added if
the CPU is found to support it.
The x86-32 code used to use __PAGE_KERNEL/__PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC for this
purpose, but they're now redundant and can be removed.

Consistently set _PAGE_GLOBAL in _PAGE_KERNEL flags. This makes 32-
and 64-bit code consistent, and removes some special cases where
__PAGE_KERNEL* did not have _PAGE_GLOBAL set, causing confusion as a
result of the inconsistencies.
This patch only affects x86-64, which generally always supports PGD.
The x86-32 patch is next.

When allocating a new pud, unconditionally populate the pgd (why did

This will only happen if the pgd slot was empty, since any existing

when acpi=off, cpu_to_apicid is ready after get_smp_config
so need to move init_cpu_to_node after it.
otherwise, we will get wrong cpu->node mapping, and it will rely on
amd_detect_cmp() to correct it - but that is too late as
setup_per_cpu_data is already called before that so we will get
per_cpu_data on the wrong node.

This patch removes the need of the crashkernel=...@offset parameter to define
a fixed offset for crashkernel reservation. That feature can be used together
with a relocatable kernel where the kexec-tools relocate the kernel and
get the actual offset from /proc/iomem.
The use case is a kernel where the .text+.data+.bss is after 16M physical
memory (debug kernel with lockdep on x86_64 can cause that) which caused a
major pain in autoconfiguration in our distribution.
Also, that patch unifies crashdump architectures a bit since IA64 has
that semantics from the very beginning of the kdump port.

Phew. OK, I've worked this out. Short version is that's it's a false
alarm, and there was no real failure here. Long version:
* I changed the code to create the physical mapping pagetables to
reuse any existing mapping rather than replace it. Specifically,
reusing an pud pointed to by the pgd caused this symptom to appear.
* The specific PUD being reused is the one created statically in
head_64.S, which creates an initial 1GB mapping.
* That mapping doesn't have _PAGE_GLOBAL set on it, due to the
inconsistency between __PAGE_* and PAGE_*.
* The CPA test attempts to clear _PAGE_GLOBAL, and then checks to
see that the resulting range is 1) shattered into 4k pages, and 2)
has no _PAGE_GLOBAL.
* However, since it didn't have _PAGE_GLOBAL on that range to start
with, change_page_attr_clear() had nothing to do, and didn't
bother shattering the range,
* resulting in the reported messages
The simple fix is to set _PAGE_GLOBAL in level2_ident_pgt.
An additional fix to make CPA testing more robust by using some other
pagetable bit (one of the unused available-to-software ones). This
would solve spurious CPA test warnings under Xen which uses _PAGE_GLOBAL
for its own purposes (ie, not under guest control).
Also, we should revisit the use of _PAGE_GLOBAL in asm-x86/pgtable.h,
and use it consistently, and drop MAKE_GLOBAL. The first time I
proposed it it caused breakages in the very early CPA code; with luck
that's all fixed now.

Ying Huang would like setup_data to be reserved, but not included in the
no save range.
Here we try to modify the e820 table to reserve that range early.
also add that in early_res in case bootloader messes up with the ramdisk.
other solution would be
1. add early_res_to_highmem...
2. early_res_to_e820...
but they could reserve another type memory wrongly, if early_res has some
resource reserved early, and not needed later, but it is not removed from
early_res in time. Like the RAMDISK (already handled).

I don't know if this will fix this bug, but it's definitely a bugfix.

This patch brings back limiting of the E820 map when a user-defined
E820 map is specified. While the behaviour of i386 (32 bit) was to limit
the E820 map (and /proc/iomem), the behaviour of x86-64 (64 bit) was not to
limit.
That patch limits the E820 map again for both x86 architectures.

It's never safe to call a swapgs pvop when the user stack is current -
it must be inline replaced. Rather than making a call, the
SWAPGS_UNSAFE_STACK pvop always just puts "swapgs" as a placeholder,
which must either be replaced inline or trap'n'emulated (somehow).

Don't conflate sysret and sysexit; they're different instructions with
different semantics, and may be in use at the same time (at least
within the same kernel, depending on whether its an Intel or AMD
system).
sysexit - just return to userspace, does no register restoration of
any kind; must explicitly atomically enable interrupts.
sysret - reloads flags from r11, so no need to explicitly enable
interrupts on 64-bit, responsible for restoring usermode %gs

This is needed when the kernel is running on RING3, such as under Xen.
x86_64 has a weird feature that makes it #GP on iret when SS is a null
descriptor.
This need to be tested on bare metal to make sure it doesn't cause any
problems. AMD specs say SS is always ignored (except on iret?).

We must do this because load_TLS() may need to clear %fs and %gs.
(e.g. under Xen).
