Use fixmaps instead of vmap/vunmap in text_poke() for avoiding
page allocation and delayed unmapping.
At the result of above change, text_poke() becomes atomic and can be called
from stop_machine() etc.

Use the mutual exclusion provided by the text edit lock in alternatives code.
Since alternative_smp_* will be called from module init code, etc,
we'd better protect it from other subsystems.

Impact: low priority bug fix
This removes part of a a patch I added myself some time ago. After some
consideration the patch was a bad idea. In particular it stopped machine check
exceptions during code patching.
To quote the comment:
* MCEs only happen when something got corrupted and in this
* case we must do something about the corruption.
* Ignoring it is worse than a unlikely patching race.
* Also machine checks tend to be broadcast and if one CPU
* goes into machine check the others follow quickly, so we don't
* expect a machine check to cause undue problems during to code
* patching.
So undo the machine check related parts of
8f4e956b313dcccbc7be6f10808952345e3b638c NMIs are still disabled.
This only removes code, the only additions are a new comment.

num_possible_cpus() can be > 1 when disabled CPUs have been accounted.
Disabled CPUs are not in the cpu_present_map, so we can use
num_present_cpus() as a safe indicator to switch to UP alternatives.

If a kernel thread is preempted in single-cpu mode right after the NOP (nop
about to be turned into a lock prefix), then we CPU hotplug a CPU, and then the
thread is scheduled back again, a SMP-unsafe atomic operation will be used on
shared SMP variables, leading to corruption. No corruption would happen in the
reverse case : going from SMP to UP is ok because we split a bit instruction
into tiny pieces, which does not present this condition.
Changing the 0x90 (single-byte nop) currently used into a 0x3E DS segment
override prefix should fix this issue. Since the default of the atomic
instructions is to use the DS segment anyway, it should not affect the
behavior.
The exception to this are references that use ESP/RSP and EBP/RBP as
the base register (they will use the SS segment), however, in Linux
(a) DS == SS at all times, and (b) we do not distinguish between
segment violations reported as #SS as opposed to #GP, so there is no
need to disassemble the instruction to figure out the suitable segment.
This patch assumes that the 0x3E prefix will leave atomic operations as-is (thus
assuming they normally touch data in the DS segment). Since there seem to be no
obvious ill-use of other segment override prefixes for atomic operations, it
should be safe. It can be verified with a quick
grep -r LOCK_PREFIX include/asm-x86/
grep -A 1 -r LOCK_PREFIX arch/x86/

"Instructions that Reference a Non-Stack Segment—If an instruction encoding
references any base register other than rBP or rSP, or if an instruction
contains an immediate offset, the default segment is the data segment (DS).
These instructions can use the segment-override prefix to select one of the
non-default segments, as shown in Table 1-5."
Therefore, forcing the DS segment on the atomic operations, which already use
the DS segment, should not change.

T-test (yeah, I'm lazy) :
Group Group One (DS prefix) Group Two (nops)
Mean 34.37815 34.37070
SD 0.46108 0.51905
SEM 0.10310 0.11606
N 20 20
P value and statistical significance:
The two-tailed P value equals 0.9620
By conventional criteria, this difference is considered to be not statistically significant.
Confidence interval:
The mean of Group One minus Group Two equals 0.00745
95% confidence interval of this difference: From -0.30682 to 0.32172
Intermediate values used in calculations:
t = 0.0480
df = 38
standard error of difference = 0.155
So, unless these calculus are completely bogus, the difference between the nop
and the DS case seems not to be statistically significant.

Yes, but in the meantime, the x86 tree would need this patch to make
kprobes work correctly on modules.
I suspect that without this fix, with the enhanced hotplug and kprobes
patch, kprobes will use text_poke to insert breakpoints in modules
(vmalloced pages used), which will map the wrong pages and corrupt
random kernel locations instead of updating the correct page.
Work that would write protect the module pages should clearly be done,
but it can come in a later time. We have to make sure we interact
correctly with the page allocation debugging, as an example.
Here is the patch against x86.git 2.6.25-rc5 :
The shadow vmap for DEBUG_RODATA kernel text modification uses virt_to_page to
get the pages from the pointer address.
However, I think vmalloc_to_page would be required in case the page is used for
modules.
Since only the core kernel text is marked read-only, use kernel_text_address()
to make sure we only shadow map the core kernel text, not modules.

Fix a memcpy that should be a text_poke (in apply_alternatives).
Use kernel_wp_save/kernel_wp_restore in text_poke to support DEBUG_RODATA
correctly and so the CPU HOTPLUG special case can be removed.
Add text_poke_early, for alternatives and paravirt boot-time and module load
time patching.
Changelog:
- Fix text_set and text_poke alignment check (mixed up bitwise and and or)
- Remove text_set
- Export add_nops, so it can be used by others.
- Document text_poke_early.
- Remove clflush, since it breaks some VIA architectures and is not strictly
necessary.
- Add kerneldoc to text_poke and text_poke_early.
- Create a second vmap instead of using the WP bit to support Xen and VMI.
- Move local_irq disable within text_poke and text_poke_early to be able to
be sleepable in these functions.

gcc expects all toplevel assembly to return to the original section type.
The code in alteranative.c does not do this. This caused some strange bugs
in sched-devel where code would end up in the .rodata section and when
the kernel sets the NX bit on all .rodata, the kernel would crash when
executing this code.
This patch adds a .previous marker to return the code back to the
original section.
Credit goes to Andrew Pinski for telling me it wasn't a gcc bug but a
bug in the toplevel asm code in the kernel. ;-)

On VMs implemented using JITs that cache translated code changing the lock
prefixes is a quite costly operation that forces the JIT to throw away and
retranslate a lot of code.
Previously a SMP kernel would rewrite the locks once for each CPU which
is quite unnecessary. This patch changes the code to never switch at boot in
the normal case (SMP kernel booting with >1 CPU) or only once for SMP kernel
on UP.
This makes a significant difference in boot up performance on AMD SimNow!
Also I expect it to be a little faster on native systems too because a smp
switch does a lot of text_poke()s which each synchronize the pipeline.

cpu_data is currently an array defined using NR_CPUS. This means that
we overallocate since we will rarely really use maximum configured cpus.
When NR_CPU count is raised to 4096 the size of cpu_data becomes
3,145,728 bytes.
These changes were adopted from the sparc64 (and ia64) code. An
additional field was added to cpuinfo_x86 to be a non-ambiguous cpu
index. This corresponds to the index into a cpumask_t as well as the
per_cpu index. It's used in various places like show_cpuinfo().
cpu_data is defined to be the boot_cpu_data structure for the NON-SMP
case.

* 'xen-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeremy/xen:
xfs: eagerly remove vmap mappings to avoid upsetting Xen
xen: add some debug output for failed multicalls
xen: fix incorrect vcpu_register_vcpu_info hypercall argument
xen: ask the hypervisor how much space it needs reserved
xen: lock pte pages while pinning/unpinning
xen: deal with stale cr3 values when unpinning pagetables
xen: add batch completion callbacks
xen: yield to IPI target if necessary
Clean up duplicate includes in arch/i386/xen/
remove dead code in pgtable_cache_init
paravirt: clean up lazy mode handling
paravirt: refactor struct paravirt_ops into smaller pv_*_ops
|
|
This patch refactors the paravirt_ops structure into groups of
functionally related ops:
pv_info - random info, rather than function entrypoints
pv_init_ops - functions used at boot time (some for module_init too)
pv_misc_ops - lazy mode, which didn't fit well anywhere else
pv_time_ops - time-related functions
pv_cpu_ops - various privileged instruction ops
pv_irq_ops - operations for managing interrupt state
pv_apic_ops - APIC operations
pv_mmu_ops - operations for managing pagetables
There are several motivations for this:
1. Some of these ops will be general to all x86, and some will be
i386/x86-64 specific. This makes it easier to share common stuff
while allowing separate implementations where needed.
2. At the moment we must export all of paravirt_ops, but modules only
need selected parts of it. This allows us to export on a case by case
basis (and also choose which export license we want to apply).
3. Functional groupings make things a bit more readable.
Struct paravirt_ops is now only used as a template to generate
patch-site identifiers, and to extract function pointers for inserting
into jmp/calls when patching. It is only instantiated when needed.
