0429fbc0bd Merge branch 'for-3.18-consistent-ops' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu
Pull percpu consistent-ops changes from Tejun Heo:
 "Way back, before the current percpu allocator was implemented, static
  and dynamic percpu memory areas were allocated and handled separately
  and had their own accessors.  The distinction has been gone for many
  years now; however, the now duplicate two sets of accessors remained
  with the pointer based ones - this_cpu_*() - evolving various other
  operations over time.  During the process, we also accumulated other
  inconsistent operations.

  This pull request contains Christoph's patches to clean up the
  duplicate accessor situation.  __get_cpu_var() uses are replaced with
  with this_cpu_ptr() and __this_cpu_ptr() with raw_cpu_ptr().

  Unfortunately, the former sometimes is tricky thanks to C being a bit
  messy with the distinction between lvalues and pointers, which led to
  a rather ugly solution for cpumask_var_t involving the introduction of
  this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr().

  This converts most of the uses but not all.  Christoph will follow up
  with the remaining conversions in this merge window and hopefully
  remove the obsolete accessors"

a2ef5dc2c7 x86/xen: Set EFER.NX and EFER.SCE in PVH guests
This fixes two bugs in PVH guests:

  - Not setting EFER.NX means the NX bit in page table entries is
    ignored on Intel processors and causes reserved bit page faults on
    AMD processors.

  - After the Xen commit 7645640d6ff1 ("x86/PVH: don't set EFER_SCE for
    pvh guest") PVH guests are required to set EFER.SCE to enable the
    SYSCALL instruction.

Secondary VCPUs are started with pagetables with the NX bit set so
EFER.NX must be set before using any stack or data segment.
xen_pvh_cpu_early_init() is the new secondary VCPU entry point that
sets EFER before jumping to cpu_bringup_and_idle().

d1e9abd630 xen: eliminate scalability issues from initrd handling
Size restrictions native kernels wouldn't have resulted from the initrd
getting mapped into the initial mapping. The kernel doesn't really need
the initrd to be mapped, so use infrastructure available in Xen to avoid
the mapping and hence the restriction.

f955371ca9 x86: remove the Xen-specific _PAGE_IOMAP PTE flag
The _PAGE_IO_MAP PTE flag was only used by Xen PV guests to mark PTEs
that were used to map I/O regions that are 1:1 in the p2m.  This
allowed Xen to obtain the correct PFN when converting the MFNs read
from a PTE back to their PFN.

Xen guests no longer use _PAGE_IOMAP for this. Instead mfn_to_pfn()
returns the correct PFN by using a combination of the m2p and p2m to
determine if an MFN corresponds to a 1:1 mapping in the the p2m.

Remove _PAGE_IOMAP, replacing it with _PAGE_UNUSED2 to allow for
future uses of the PTE flag.

89cbc76768 x86: Replace __get_cpu_var uses
__get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of
them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x).  This calculates
the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor
based on an offset.

Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current
processors percpu area.  __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when
writing data or on the right side of an assignment.

__get_cpu_var() is defined as :

#define __get_cpu_var(var) (*this_cpu_ptr(&(var)))

__get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However, store
and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on
other platforms) to avoid the address calculation.

this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a
percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu
variables.

This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address
calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that
use the offset.  Thereby address calculations are avoided and less registers
are used when code is generated.

Transformations done to __get_cpu_var()

1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor.

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
	int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y);

    Converts to

	int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y);

2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved.

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y[20]);
	int *x = __get_cpu_var(y);

    Converts to

	int *x = this_cpu_ptr(y);

3. Retrieve the content of the current processors instance of a per cpu
variable.

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
	int x = __get_cpu_var(y)

   Converts to

	int x = __this_cpu_read(y);

4. Retrieve the content of a percpu struct

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct mystruct, y);
	struct mystruct x = __get_cpu_var(y);

   Converts to

	memcpy(&x, this_cpu_ptr(&y), sizeof(x));

5. Assignment to a per cpu variable

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y)
	__get_cpu_var(y) = x;

   Converts to

	__this_cpu_write(y, x);

6. Increment/Decrement etc of a per cpu variable

	DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
	__get_cpu_var(y)++

   Converts to

	__this_cpu_inc(y)

c7341d6a61 arch/x86/xen: Silence compiler warnings
Compiler complains in the following way when x86 32-bit kernel
with Xen support is build:

  CC      arch/x86/xen/enlighten.o
arch/x86/xen/enlighten.c: In function ‘xen_start_kernel’:
arch/x86/xen/enlighten.c:1726:3: warning: right shift count >= width of type [enabled by default]

Such line contains following EFI initialization code:

boot_params.efi_info.efi_systab_hi = (__u32)(__pa(efi_systab_xen) >> 32);

There is no issue if x86 64-bit kernel is build. However, 32-bit case
generate warning (even if that code will not be executed because Xen
does not work on 32-bit EFI platforms) due to __pa() returning unsigned long
type which has 32-bits width. So move whole EFI initialization stuff
to separate function and build it conditionally to avoid above mentioned
warning on x86 32-bit architecture.

be81c8a1da xen: Put EFI machinery in place
This patch enables EFI usage under Xen dom0. Standard EFI Linux
Kernel infrastructure cannot be used because it requires direct
access to EFI data and code. However, in dom0 case it is not possible
because above mentioned EFI stuff is fully owned and controlled
by Xen hypervisor. In this case all calls from dom0 to EFI must
be requested via special hypercall which in turn executes relevant
EFI code in behalf of dom0.

When dom0 kernel boots it checks for EFI availability on a machine.
If it is detected then artificial EFI system table is filled.
Native EFI callas are replaced by functions which mimics them
by calling relevant hypercall. Later pointer to EFI system table
is passed to standard EFI machinery and it continues EFI subsystem
initialization taking into account that there is no direct access
to EFI boot services, runtime, tables, structures, etc. After that
system runs as usual.

This patch is based on Jan Beulich and Tang Liang work.

8d693b911b xen: Introduce 'xen_nopv' to disable PV extensions for HVM guests.
By default when CONFIG_XEN and CONFIG_XEN_PVHVM kernels are
run, they will enable the PV extensions (drivers, interrupts, timers,
etc) - which is the best option for the majority of use cases.

However, in some cases (kexec not fully working, benchmarking)
we want to disable Xen PV extensions. As such introduce the
'xen_nopv' parameter that will do it.

This parameter is intended only for HVM guests as the Xen PV
guests MUST boot with PV extensions. However, even if you use
'xen_nopv' on Xen PV guests it will be ignored.

c9f6e9977e xen/pvh: Set X86_CR0_WP and others in CR0 (v2)
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.

2771374d47 xen/pvh: Piggyback on PVHVM for event channels (v2)
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.

5840c84b16 xen/pvh: Secondary VCPU bringup (non-bootup CPUs)
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).

8d656bbe43 xen/pvh: Load GDT/GS in early PV bootup code for BSP.
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'.

696fd7c5b2 xen/pvh: Don't setup P2M tree.
P2M is not available for PVH. Fortunatly for us the
P2M code already has mostly the support for auto-xlat guest thanks to
commit 3d24bbd7dd
"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.

d285d68314 xen/pvh: Early bootup changes in PV code (v4).
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  5e62625420
    "xen/setup: filter APERFMPERF cpuid feature out"
 - and the inability to figure out whether MWAIT_LEAF
   should be exposed or not. See
   df88b2d96e
   "xen/enlighten: Disable MWAIT_LEAF so that acpi-pad won't be loaded."
 - x2apic, see  4ea9b9aca9
   "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.

  Lastly are the fixes to make Xen PVHVM guests use PV ticketlocks (Xen

  paravirtualized ticket spinlocks (PV spinlocks), which bring a nice
  speedup on various benchmarks...") but unfortunatly it would cause

1fb3a8b2cf xen/spinlock: Fix locking path engaging too soon under PVHVM.
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 fc78d343fa
"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.

xen_panic_handler_init() is defined to register on panic_notifier_list but
we only call it in xen_arch_setup which only be called by PV, this patch is
necessary for PVHVM.

Without this patch, setting 'on_crash=coredump-restart' in PVHVM guest config

6efa20e49b xen: Support 64-bit PV guest receiving NMIs
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 1db01b4903
(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.

9df56f19a5 x86: Correctly detect hypervisor
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.

Suggested by H. Peter Anvin and Paolo Bonzini.

148f9bb877 x86: delete __cpuinit usage from all x86 files
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.

d5b17dbff8 xen/smp/pvhvm: Don't point per_cpu(xen_vpcu, 33 and larger) to shared_info
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.

a520996ae2 xen/vcpu: Document the xen_vcpu_info and xen_vcpu
They are important structures and it is not clear at first
look what they are for.

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.

7f1fc268c4 xen/vcpu/pvhvm: Fix vcpu hotplugging hanging.
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
   0.043163027 --|x d4v1 intr_window vec 243 src 5(vector) intr f3
]  0.043163639 --|x d4v1 vmentry cycles 1468

   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.

357d122670 x86, xen, gdt: Remove the pvops variant of store_gdt.
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.

---[ end trace 4918cdd0a4c9fea4 ]---

(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.

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

With Xen acpi pad logic added into kernel, we can now revert xen mwait related
patch df88b2d96e ("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.

9d02b43dee xen PVonHVM: use E820_Reserved area for shared_info
This is a respin of 00e37bdb01
("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.
