      x86/tlb: Disable interrupts when changing CR4 · 9d0b6232
      Nadav Amit authored 
      CR4 modifications are implemented as RMW operations which update a shadow
variable and write the result to CR4. The RMW operation is protected by
preemption disable, but there is no enforcement or debugging mechanism.

CR4 modifications happen also in interrupt context via
__native_flush_tlb_global(). This implementation does not affect a
interrupted thread context CR4 operation, because the CR4 toggle restores
the original content and does not modify the shadow variable.

So the current situation seems to be safe, but a recent patch tried to add
an actual RMW operation in interrupt context, which will cause subtle
corruptions.

To prevent that and make the CR4 handling future proof:

 - Add a lockdep assertion to __cr4_set() which will catch interrupt
   enabled invocations

 - Disable interrupts in the cr4 manipulator inlines

 - Rename cr4_toggle_bits() to cr4_toggle_bits_irqsoff(). This is called
   from __switch_to_xtra() where interrupts are already disabled and
   performance matters.

All other call sites are not performance critical, so the extra overhead of
an additional local_irq_save/restore() pair is not a problem. If new call
sites care about performance then the necessary _irqsoff() variants can be
added.

[ tglx: Condensed the patch by moving the irq protection inside the
  	manipulator functions. Updated changelog ]

      x86/tlb: Refactor CR4 setting and shadow write · 0c3292ca
      Nadav Amit authored 
      Refactor the write to CR4 and its shadow value. This is done in
preparation for the addition of an assertion to check that IRQs are
disabled during CR4 update.

No functional change.

      x86/decoder: Add new TEST instruction pattern · 12a78d43
      Masami Hiramatsu authored 
      The kbuild test robot reported this build warning:

  Warning: arch/x86/tools/test_get_len found difference at <jump_table>:ffffffff8103dd2c

  Warning: ffffffff8103dd82: f6 09 d8 testb $0xd8,(%rcx)
  Warning: objdump says 3 bytes, but insn_get_length() says 2
  Warning: decoded and checked 1569014 instructions with 1 warnings

This sequence seems to be a new instruction not in the opcode map in the Intel SDM.

The instruction sequence is "F6 09 d8", means Group3(F6), MOD(00)REG(001)RM(001), and 0xd8.
Intel SDM vol2 A.4 Table A-6 said the table index in the group is "Encoding of Bits 5,4,3 of
the ModR/M Byte (bits 2,1,0 in parenthesis)"

In that table, opcodes listed by the index REG bits as:

  000         001       010 011  100        101        110         111
 TEST Ib/Iz,(undefined),NOT,NEG,MUL AL/rAX,IMUL AL/rAX,DIV AL/rAX,IDIV AL/rAX

So, it seems TEST Ib is assigned to 001.

Add the new pattern.

      x86/mm/kasan: Don't use vmemmap_populate() to initialize shadow · f68d62a5
      Andrey Ryabinin authored 
      [ Note, this commit is a cherry-picked version of:

    d17a1d97: ("x86/mm/kasan: don't use vmemmap_populate() to initialize shadow")

  ... for easier x86 entry code testing and back-porting. ]

The KASAN shadow is currently mapped using vmemmap_populate() since that
provides a semi-convenient way to map pages into init_top_pgt.  However,
since that no longer zeroes the mapped pages, it is not suitable for
KASAN, which requires zeroed shadow memory.

Add kasan_populate_shadow() interface and use it instead of
vmemmap_populate().  Besides, this allows us to take advantage of
gigantic pages and use them to populate the shadow, which should save us
some memory wasted on page tables and reduce TLB pressure.

      x86/entry/64: Fix entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe() IRQ tracing · 548c3050
      Andy Lutomirski authored 
      When I added entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe(), I left TRACE_IRQS_OFF
before it.  This means that users of entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe()
were responsible for invoking TRACE_IRQS_OFF, and the one and only
user (Xen, added in the same commit) got it wrong.

I think this would manifest as a warning if a Xen PV guest with
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP=y were used with context tracking.  (The
context tracking bit is to cause lockdep to get invoked before we
turn IRQs back on.)  I haven't tested that for real yet because I
can't get a kernel configured like that to boot at all on Xen PV.

Move TRACE_IRQS_OFF below the label.
