During bootup in the 'probe_page_size_mask' these CR4 flags are
set in there. But for AP processors they are not set as we do not
use 'secondary_startup_64' which the baremetal kernels uses.
Instead do it in this function which we use in Xen PVH during our
startup for AP processors.
As such fix it up to make sure we have that flag set.

otherwise we will get for some user-space applications
that use 'clone' with CLONE_CHILD_SETTID | CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID
end up hitting an assert in glibc manifested by:
general protection ip:7f80720d364c sp:7fff98fd8a80 error:0 in
libc-2.13.so[7f807209e000+180000]
This is due to the nature of said operations which sets and clears
the PID. "In the successful one I can see that the page table of
the parent process has been updated successfully to use a
different physical page, so the write of the tid on
that page only affects the child...
On the other hand, in the failed case, the write seems to happen before
the copy of the original page is done, so both the parent and the child
end up with the same value (because the parent copies the page after
the write of the child tid has already happened)."
(Roger's analysis). The nature of this is due to the Xen's commit
of 51e2cac257ec8b4080d89f0855c498cbbd76a5e5
"x86/pvh: set only minimal cr0 and cr4 flags in order to use paging"
the CR0_WP was removed so COW features of the Linux kernel were not
operating properly.
While doing that also update the rest of the CR0 flags to be inline
with what a baremetal Linux kernel would set them to.
In 'secondary_startup_64' (baremetal Linux) sets:
X86_CR0_PE | X86_CR0_MP | X86_CR0_ET | X86_CR0_NE | X86_CR0_WP |
X86_CR0_AM | X86_CR0_PG
The hypervisor for HVM type guests (which PVH is a bit) sets:
X86_CR0_PE | X86_CR0_ET | X86_CR0_TS
For PVH it specifically sets:
X86_CR0_PG
Which means we need to set the rest: X86_CR0_MP | X86_CR0_NE |
X86_CR0_WP | X86_CR0_AM to have full parity.

PVH is a PV guest with a twist - there are certain things
that work in it like HVM and some like PV. There is
a similar mode - PVHVM where we run in HVM mode with
PV code enabled - and this patch explores that.
The most notable PV interfaces are the XenBus and event channels.
We will piggyback on how the event channel mechanism is
used in PVHVM - that is we want the normal native IRQ mechanism
and we will install a vector (hvm callback) for which we
will call the event channel mechanism.
This means that from a pvops perspective, we can use
native_irq_ops instead of the Xen PV specific. Albeit in the
future we could support pirq_eoi_map. But that is
a feature request that can be shared with PVHVM.

The VCPU bringup protocol follows the PV with certain twists.
From xen/include/public/arch-x86/xen.h:
Also note that when calling DOMCTL_setvcpucontext and VCPU_initialise
for HVM and PVH guests, not all information in this structure is updated:
- For HVM guests, the structures read include: fpu_ctxt (if
VGCT_I387_VALID is set), flags, user_regs, debugreg[*]
- PVH guests are the same as HVM guests, but additionally use ctrlreg[3] to
set cr3. All other fields not used should be set to 0.
This is what we do. We piggyback on the 'xen_setup_gdt' - but modify
a bit - we need to call 'load_percpu_segment' so that 'switch_to_new_gdt'
can load per-cpu data-structures. It has no effect on the VCPU0.
We also piggyback on the %rdi register to pass in the CPU number - so
that when we bootup a new CPU, the cpu_bringup_and_idle will have
passed as the first parameter the CPU number (via %rdi for 64-bit).

During early bootup we start life using the Xen provided
GDT, which means that we are running with %cs segment set
to FLAT_KERNEL_CS (FLAT_RING3_CS64 0xe033, GDT index 261).
But for PVH we want to be use HVM type mechanism for
segment operations. As such we need to switch to the HVM
one and also reload ourselves with the __KERNEL_CS:eip
to run in the proper GDT and segment.
For HVM this is usually done in 'secondary_startup_64' in
(head_64.S) but since we are not taking that bootup
path (we start in PV - xen_start_kernel) we need to do
that in the early PV bootup paths.
For good measure we also zero out the %fs, %ds, and %es
(not strictly needed as Xen has already cleared them
for us). The %gs is loaded by 'switch_to_new_gdt'.

P2M is not available for PVH. Fortunatly for us the
P2M code already has mostly the support for auto-xlat guest thanks to
commit 3d24bbd7dddbea54358a9795abaf051b0f18973c
"grant-table: call set_phys_to_machine after mapping grant refs"
which: "
introduces set_phys_to_machine calls for auto_translated guests
(even on x86) in gnttab_map_refs and gnttab_unmap_refs.
translated by swiotlb-xen... " so we don't need to muck much.
with above mentioned "commit you'll get set_phys_to_machine calls
from gnttab_map_refs and gnttab_unmap_refs but PVH guests won't do
anything with them " (Stefano Stabellini) which is OK - we want
them to be NOPs.
This is because we assume that an "IOMMU is always present on the
plaform and Xen is going to make the appropriate IOMMU pagetable
changes in the hypercall implementation of GNTTABOP_map_grant_ref
and GNTTABOP_unmap_grant_ref, then eveything should be transparent
from PVH priviligied point of view and DMA transfers involving
foreign pages keep working with no issues[sp]
Otherwise we would need a P2M (and an M2P) for PVH priviligied to
track these foreign pages .. (see arch/arm/xen/p2m.c)."
(Stefano Stabellini).
We still have to inhibit the building of the P2M tree.
That had been done in the past by not calling
xen_build_dynamic_phys_to_machine (which setups the P2M tree
and gives us virtual address to access them). But we are missing
a check for xen_build_mfn_list_list - which was continuing to setup
the P2M tree and would blow up at trying to get the virtual
address of p2m_missing (which would have been setup by
xen_build_dynamic_phys_to_machine).
Hence a check is needed to not call xen_build_mfn_list_list when
running in auto-xlat mode.
Instead of replicating the check for auto-xlat in enlighten.c
do it in the p2m.c code. The reason is that the xen_build_mfn_list_list
is called also in xen_arch_post_suspend without any checks for
auto-xlat. So for PVH or PV with auto-xlat - we would needlessly
allocate space for an P2M tree.

We don't use the filtering that 'xen_cpuid' is doing
because the hypervisor treats 'XEN_EMULATE_PREFIX' as
an invalid instruction. This means that all of the filtering
will have to be done in the hypervisor/toolstack.
Without the filtering we expose to the guest the:
- cpu topology (sockets, cores, etc);
- the APERF (which the generic scheduler likes to
use), see 5e626254206a709c6e937f3dda69bf26c7344f6f
"xen/setup: filter APERFMPERF cpuid feature out"
- and the inability to figure out whether MWAIT_LEAF
should be exposed or not. See
df88b2d96e36d9a9e325bfcd12eb45671cbbc937
"xen/enlighten: Disable MWAIT_LEAF so that acpi-pad won't be loaded."
- x2apic, see 4ea9b9aca90cfc71e6872ed3522356755162932c
"xen: mask x2APIC feature in PV"
We also check for vector callback early on, as it is a required
feature. PVH also runs at default kernel IOPL.
Finally, pure PV settings are moved to a separate function that are
only called for pure PV, ie, pv with pvmmu. They are also #ifdef
with CONFIG_XEN_PVMMU.

Pull Xen bug-fixes from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
"This pull I usually do after rc1 is out but because we have a nice
amount of fixes, some bootup related fixes for ARM, and it is early in
the cycle we figured to do it now to help with tracking of potential
regressions.
The simple ones are the ARM ones - one of the patches fell through the
cracks, other fixes a bootup issue (unconditionally using Xen
functions). Then a fix for a regression causing preempt count being
off (patch causing this went in v3.12).
Lastly are the fixes to make Xen PVHVM guests use PV ticketlocks (Xen
PV already does).
The enablement of that was supposed to be part of the x86 spinlock
merge in commit 816434ec4a67 ("The biggest change here are
paravirtualized ticket spinlocks (PV spinlocks), which bring a nice
speedup on various benchmarks...") but unfortunatly it would cause
hang when booting Xen PVHVM guests. Yours truly got all of the bugs
fixed last week and they (six of them) are included in this pull.
Bug-fixes:
- Boot on ARM without using Xen unconditionally
- On Xen ARM don't run cpuidle/cpufreq
- Fix regression in balloon driver, preempt count warnings
- Fixes to make PVHVM able to use pv ticketlock.
- Revert Xen PVHVM disabling pv ticketlock (aka, re-enable pv ticketlocks)"

The xen_lock_spinning has a check for the kicker interrupts
and if it is not initialized it will spin normally (not enter
the slowpath).
But for PVHVM case we would initialize the kicker interrupt
before the CPU came online. This meant that if the booting
CPU used a spinlock and went in the slowpath - it would
enter the slowpath and block forever. The forever part because
during bootup: the spinlock would be taken _before_ the CPU
sets itself to be online (more on this further), and we enter
to poll on the event channel forever.
The bootup CPU (see commit fc78d343fa74514f6fd117b5ef4cd27e4ac30236
"xen/smp: initialize IPI vectors before marking CPU online"
for details) and the CPU that started the bootup consult
the cpu_online_mask to determine whether the booting CPU should
get an IPI. The booting CPU has to set itself in this mask via:
set_cpu_online(smp_processor_id(), true);
However, if the spinlock is taken before this (and it is) and
it polls on an event channel - it will never be woken up as
the kernel will never send an IPI to an offline CPU.
Note that the PVHVM logic in sending IPIs is using the HVM
path which has numerous checks using the cpu_online_mask
and cpu_active_mask. See above mention git commit for details.

This is based on a patch that Zhenzhong Duan had sent - which
was missing some of the remaining pieces. The kernel has the
logic to handle Xen-type-exceptions using the paravirt interface
in the assembler code (see PARAVIRT_ADJUST_EXCEPTION_FRAME -
pv_irq_ops.adjust_exception_frame and and INTERRUPT_RETURN -
pv_cpu_ops.iret).
That means the nmi handler (and other exception handlers) use
the hypervisor iret.
The other changes that would be neccessary for this would
be to translate the NMI_VECTOR to one of the entries on the
ipi_vector and make xen_send_IPI_mask_allbutself use different
events.
Fortunately for us commit 1db01b4903639fcfaec213701a494fe3fb2c490b
(xen: Clean up apic ipi interface) implemented this and we piggyback
on the cleanup such that the apic IPI interface will pass the right
vector value for NMI.
With this patch we can trigger NMIs within a PV guest (only tested
x86_64).
For this to work with normal PV guests (not initial domain)
we need the domain to be able to use the APIC ops - they are
already implemented to use the Xen event channels. For that
to be turned on in a PV domU we need to remove the masking
of X86_FEATURE_APIC.
Incidentally that means kgdb will also now work within
a PV guest without using the 'nokgdbroundup' workaround.
Note that the 32-bit version is different and this patch
does not enable that.

We try to handle the hypervisor compatibility mode by detecting hypervisor
through a specific order. This is not robust, since hypervisors may implement
each others features.
This patch tries to handle this situation by always choosing the last one in the
CPUID leaves. This is done by letting .detect() return a priority instead of
true/false and just re-using the CPUID leaf where the signature were found as
the priority (or 1 if it was found by DMI). Then we can just pick hypervisor who
has the highest priority. Other sophisticated detection method could also be
implemented on top.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
are flagged as __cpuinit -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid
of these warnings. In any case, they are temporary and harmless.
This removes all the arch/x86 uses of the __cpuinit macros from
all C files. x86 only had the one __CPUINIT used in assembly files,
and it wasn't paired off with a .previous or a __FINIT, so we can
delete it directly w/o any corresponding additional change there.

As it will point to some data, but not event channel data (the
shared_info has an array limited to 32).
This means that for PVHVM guests with more than 32 VCPUs without
the usage of VCPUOP_register_info any interrupts to VCPUs
larger than 32 would have gone unnoticed during early bootup.
That is OK, as during early bootup, in smp_init we end up calling
the hotplug mechanism (xen_hvm_cpu_notify) which makes the
VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info call for all VCPUs and we can receive
interrupts on VCPUs 33 and further.
This is just a cleanup.

They are important structures and it is not clear at first

The xen_vcpu is a pointer. By default it points to the shared_info
structure (at the CPU offset location). However if the
VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info hypercall is implemented we can make the
xen_vcpu pointer point to a per-CPU location.

If a user did:
echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
we would (this a build with DEBUG enabled) get to:
smpboot: ++++++++++++++++++++=_---CPU UP 1
.. snip..
smpboot: Stack at about ffff880074c0ff44
smpboot: CPU1: has booted.
and hang. The RCU mechanism would kick in an try to IPI the CPU1
but the IPIs (and all other interrupts) would never arrive at the
CPU1. At first glance at least. A bit digging in the hypervisor
trace shows that (using xenanalyze):
[vla] d4v1 vec 243 injecting

0.043166800 --|x d4v1 inj_virq vec 243 real
[vla] d4v1 vec 243 injecting
there is a pending event (subsequent debugging shows it is the IPI
from the VCPU0 when smpboot.c on VCPU1 has done
"set_cpu_online(smp_processor_id(), true)") and the guest VCPU1 is
interrupted with the callback IPI (0xf3 aka 243) which ends up calling
__xen_evtchn_do_upcall.
The __xen_evtchn_do_upcall seems to do *something* but not acknowledge
the pending events. And the moment the guest does a 'cli' (that is the
ffffffff81673254 in the log above) the hypervisor is invoked again to
inject the IPI (0xf3) to tell the guest it has pending interrupts.
This repeats itself forever.
The culprit was the per_cpu(xen_vcpu, cpu) pointer. At the bootup
we set each per_cpu(xen_vcpu, cpu) to point to the
shared_info->vcpu_info[vcpu] but later on use the VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info
to register per-CPU structures (xen_vcpu_setup).
This is used to allow events for more than 32 VCPUs and for performance
optimizations reasons.
When the user performs the VCPU hotplug we end up calling the
the xen_vcpu_setup once more. We make the hypercall which returns
-EINVAL as it does not allow multiple registration calls (and
already has re-assigned where the events are being set). We pick
the fallback case and set per_cpu(xen_vcpu, cpu) to point to the
shared_info->vcpu_info[vcpu] (which is a good fallback during bootup).
However the hypervisor is still setting events in the register
per-cpu structure (per_cpu(xen_vcpu_info, cpu)).
As such when the events are set by the hypervisor (such as timer one),
and when we iterate in __xen_evtchn_do_upcall we end up reading stale
events from the shared_info->vcpu_info[vcpu] instead of the
per_cpu(xen_vcpu_info, cpu) structures. Hence we never acknowledge the
events that the hypervisor has set and the hypervisor keeps on reminding
us to ack the events which we never do.
The fix is simple. Don't on the second time when xen_vcpu_setup is
called over-write the per_cpu(xen_vcpu, cpu) if it points to
per_cpu(xen_vcpu_info).

The solution to that is use kasprintf in the CPU hotplug path
that 'online's the CPU. That is, do it in in xen_hvm_cpu_notify,
and remove the call to in xen_hvm_setup_cpu_clockevents.
Unfortunatly the later is not a good idea as the bootup path
does not use xen_hvm_cpu_notify so we would end up never allocating
timer%d interrupt lines when booting. As such add the check for
atomic() to continue.

The two use-cases where we needed to store the GDT were during ACPI S3 suspend
and resume. As the patches:
x86/gdt/i386: store/load GDT for ACPI S3 or hibernation/resume path is not needed
x86/gdt/64-bit: store/load GDT for ACPI S3 or hibernate/resume path is not needed.
have demonstrated - there are other mechanism by which the GDT is
saved and reloaded during early resume path.
Hence we do not need to worry about the pvops call-chain for saving the
GDT and can and can eliminate it. The other areas where the store_gdt is
used are never going to be hit when running under the pvops platforms.

(a similar message shows up if you end up launching 'mcelog')
The call chain is (as analyzed by Liu, Jinsong):
do_fork
--> copy_process
--> dup_mm
--> dup_mmap
--> copy_page_range
--> track_pfn_copy
--> reserve_pfn_range
--> line 624: flags != want_flags
It comes from different memory types of page table (_PAGE_CACHE_WB) and MTRR
(_PAGE_CACHE_UC_MINUS).
Stefan Bader dug in this deep and found out that:
"That makes it clearer as this will do
reserve_memtype(...)
--> pat_x_mtrr_type
--> mtrr_type_lookup
--> __mtrr_type_lookup
And that can return -1/0xff in case of MTRR not being enabled/initialized. Which
is not the case (given there are no messages for it in dmesg). This is not equal
to MTRR_TYPE_WRBACK and thus becomes _PAGE_CACHE_UC_MINUS.
It looks like the problem starts early in reserve_memtype:
if (!pat_enabled) {
/* This is identical to page table setting without PAT */
if (new_type) {
if (req_type == _PAGE_CACHE_WC)
*new_type = _PAGE_CACHE_UC_MINUS;
else
*new_type = req_type & _PAGE_CACHE_MASK;
}
return 0;
}
This would be what we want, that is clearing the PWT and PCD flags from the
supported flags - if pat_enabled is disabled."
This patch does that - disabling PAT.

This patch updates x2apic initializaition code to allow x2apic
on VMware platform even without interrupt remapping support.
The hypervisor_x2apic_available hook was added in x2apic
initialization code and used by KVM and XEN, before this.
I have also cleaned up that code to export this hook through the
hypervisor_x86 structure.
Compile tested for KVM and XEN configs, this patch doesn't have
any functional effect on those two platforms.
On VMware platform, verified that x2apic is used in physical
mode on products that support this.

With Xen acpi pad logic added into kernel, we can now revert xen mwait related
patch df88b2d96e36d9a9e325bfcd12eb45671cbbc937 ("xen/enlighten: Disable
MWAIT_LEAF so that acpi-pad won't be loaded. "). The reason is, when running under
newer Xen platform, Xen pad driver would be early loaded, so native pad driver
would fail to be loaded, and hence no mwait/monitor #UD risk again.
Another point is, only Xen4.2 or later support Xen acpi pad, so we won't expose
mwait cpuid capability when running under older Xen platform.

This is a respin of 00e37bdb0113a98408de42db85be002f21dbffd3
("xen PVonHVM: move shared_info to MMIO before kexec").
Currently kexec in a PVonHVM guest fails with a triple fault because the
new kernel overwrites the shared info page. The exact failure depends on
the size of the kernel image. This patch moves the pfn from RAM into an
E820 reserved memory area.
The pfn containing the shared_info is located somewhere in RAM. This will
cause trouble if the current kernel is doing a kexec boot into a new
kernel. The new kernel (and its startup code) can not know where the pfn
is, so it can not reserve the page. The hypervisor will continue to update
the pfn, and as a result memory corruption occours in the new kernel.
The toolstack marks the memory area FC000000-FFFFFFFF as reserved in the
E820 map. Within that range newer toolstacks (4.3+) will keep 1MB
starting from FE700000 as reserved for guest use. Older Xen4 toolstacks
will usually not allocate areas up to FE700000, so FE700000 is expected
to work also with older toolstacks.
In Xen3 there is no reserved area at a fixed location. If the guest is
started on such old hosts the shared_info page will be placed in RAM. As
a result kexec can not be used.

Pull Xen fixes from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
"This has four bug-fixes and one tiny feature that I forgot to put
initially in my tree due to oversight.
The feature is for kdump kernels to speed up the /proc/vmcore reading.
There is a ram_is_pfn helper function that the different platforms can
register for. We are now doing that.
The bug-fixes cover some embarrassing struct pv_cpu_ops variables
being set to NULL on Xen (but not baremetal). We had a similar issue
in the past with {write|read}_msr_safe and this fills the three
missing ones. The other bug-fix is to make the console output (hvc)
be capable of dealing with misbehaving backends and not fall flat on
its face. Lastly, a quirk for older XenBus implementations that came
with an ancient v3.4 hypervisor (so RHEL5 based) - reading of certain
non-existent attributes just hangs the guest during bootup - so we
take precaution of not doing that on such older installations.
Feature:
- Register a pfn_is_ram helper to speed up reading of /proc/vmcore.
Bug-fixes:
- Three pvops call for Xen were undefined causing BUG_ONs.
- Add a quirk so that the shutdown watches (used by kdump) are not
used with older Xen (3.4).
- Fix ungraceful state transition for the HVC console."

Pull ADM Xen support from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
Features:
* Allow a Linux guest to boot as initial domain and as normal guests
on Xen on ARM (specifically ARMv7 with virtualized extensions). PV
console, block and network frontend/backends are working.
Bug-fixes:
* Fix compile linux-next fallout.
* Fix PVHVM bootup crashing.
The Xen-unstable hypervisor (so will be 4.3 in a ~6 months), supports
ARMv7 platforms.
The goal in implementing this architecture is to exploit the hardware
as much as possible. That means use as little as possible of PV
operations (so no PV MMU) - and use existing PV drivers for I/Os
(network, block, console, etc). This is similar to how PVHVM guests
operate in X86 platform nowadays - except that on ARM there is no need
for QEMU. The end result is that we share a lot of the generic Xen
drivers and infrastructure.
Details on how to compile/boot/etc are available at this Wiki:

Pull Xen update from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
"Features:
- When hotplugging PCI devices in a PV guest we can allocate
Xen-SWIOTLB later.
- Cleanup Xen SWIOTLB.
- Support pages out grants from HVM domains in the backends.
- Support wild cards in xen-pciback.hide=(BDF) arguments.
- Update grant status updates with upstream hypervisor.
- Boot PV guests with more than 128GB.
- Cleanup Xen MMU code/add comments.
- Obtain XENVERS using a preferred method.
- Lay out generic changes to support Xen ARM.
- Allow privcmd ioctl for HVM (used to do only PV).
- Do v2 of mmap_batch for privcmd ioctls.
- If hypervisor saves the LED keyboard light - we will now instruct
the kernel about its state.
Fixes:
- More fixes to Xen PCI backend for various calls/FLR/etc.
- With more than 4GB in a 64-bit PV guest disable native SWIOTLB.
- Fix up smatch warnings.
- Fix up various return values in privmcmd and mm."

The xen c/s 25873 allows the hypervisor to retrieve the NUMLOCK flag.
With this patch, the Linux kernel can get the state according to the
data in the BIOS.

As the initial domain we are able to search/map certain regions
of memory to harvest configuration data. For all low-level we
use ACPI tables - for interrupts we use exclusively ACPI _PRT
(so DSDT) and MADT for INT_SRC_OVR.
The SMP MP table is not used at all. As a matter of fact we do
not even support machines that only have SMP MP but no ACPI tables.
Lets follow how Moorestown does it and just disable searching
for BIOS SMP tables.
This also fixes an issue on HP Proliant BL680c G5 and DL380 G6:
9f->100 for 1:1 PTE

which is that ioremap would end up mapping 0xff using _PAGE_IOMAP
(which is what early_ioremap sticks as a flag) - which meant
we would get MFN 0xFF (pte ff461, which is OK), and then it would
also map 0x100 (b/c ioremap tries to get page aligned request, and
it was trying to map 0xf4fa0 + PAGE_SIZE - so it mapped the next page)
as _PAGE_IOMAP. Since 0x100 is actually a RAM page, and the _PAGE_IOMAP
bypasses the P2M lookup we would happily set the PTE to 1000461.
Xen would deny the request since we do not have access to the
Machine Frame Number (MFN) of 0x100. The P2M[0x100] is for example
0x80140.
