cd1b68f08f x86, mm: fault.c, give another attempt at prefetch handing before SIGBUS
Impact: extend prefetch handling on 64-bit

Currently there's an extra is_prefetch() check done in do_sigbus(),
which we only do on 32 bits.

This is a last-ditch check before we terminate a task, so it's worth
giving prefetch instructions another chance - should none of our
existing quirks have caught a prefetch instruction related spurious
fault.

The only risk is if a prefetch causes a real sigbus, in that case
we'll not OOM but try another fault. But this code has been on
32-bit for a long time, so it should be fine in practice.

So do this on 64-bit too - and thus remove one more #ifdef.

c3731c6866 x86, mm: fault.c, remove #ifdef from do_page_fault()
Impact: cleanup

do_page_fault() has this ugly #ifdef in its prototype:

  #ifdef CONFIG_X86_64
  asmlinkage
  #endif
  void __kprobes do_page_fault(struct pt_regs *regs, unsigned long error_code)

Replace it with 'dotraplinkage' which maps to exactly the above
construct: nothing on 32-bit and asmlinkage on 64-bit.

1cc99544dd x86, mm: fault.c, unify oops handling
Impact: add oops-recursion check to 32-bit

Unify the oops state-machine, to the 64-bit version. It is
slightly more careful in that it does a recursion check
in oops_begin(), and is thus more likely to show the relevant
oops.

It also means that 32-bit will print one more line at the
end of pagefault triggered oopses:

 	printk(KERN_EMERG "CR2: %016lx\n", address);

Which is generally good information to be seen in partial-dump
digital-camera jpegs ;-)

The downside is the somewhat more complex critical path. Both
variants have been tested well meanwhile by kernel developers
crashing their boxes so i dont think this is a practical worry.

This removes 3 ugly #ifdefs from no_context() and makes the
function a lot nicer read.

Impact: refine/extend page fault related oops printing on 64-bit

 - honor the pause_on_oops logic on 64-bit too
 - print out NX fault warnings on 64-bit as well
 - factor out the NX fault message to make it git-greppable and readable

Note that this means that we do the PF_INSTR check on 32-bit non-PAE
as well where it should not occur ... normally. Cannot hurt.

121d5d0a7e x86, mm: fault.c, enable PF_RSVD checks on 32-bit too
Impact: improve page fault handling robustness

The 'PF_RSVD' flag (bit 3) of the page-fault error_code is a
relatively recent addition to x86 CPUs, so the 32-bit do_fault()
implementation never had it. This flag gets set when the CPU
detects nonzero values in any reserved bits of the page directory
entries.

Extend the existing 64-bit check for PF_RSVD in do_page_fault()
to 32-bit too. If we detect such a fault then we print a more
informative oops and the pagetables.

This unifies the code some more, removes an ugly #ifdef and improves
the 32-bit page fault code robustness a bit. It slightly increases
the 32-bit kernel text size.

automatically:

 - tidy up the include file section
 - eliminate unnecessary includes
 - introduce show_signal_msg() to clean up code flow
 - standardize the code flow
 - standardize comments and other style details
 - more cleanups, pointed out by checkpatch

   4632	     32	     24	   4688	   1250	fault.o.after

the md5 changed due to a change in a single instruction:

   c5c3d36e725586eb74f0e10692f0193e  fault.o.after.asm

Because a __LINE__ reference in a WARN_ONCE() has changed.

On 32-bit a few stack offsets changed - no code size difference
nor any functionality difference.

7a5714e018 x86, pat: add large-PAT check to split_large_page()
Impact: future-proof the split_large_page() function

Linus noticed that split_large_page() is not safe wrt. the
PAT bit: it is bit 12 on the 1GB and 2MB page table level
(_PAGE_BIT_PAT_LARGE), and it is bit 7 on the 4K page
table level (_PAGE_BIT_PAT).

Currently it is not a problem because we never set
_PAGE_BIT_PAT_LARGE on any of the large-page mappings - but
should this happen in the future the split_large_page() would
silently lift bit 12 into the lowlevel 4K pte and would start
corrupting the physical page frame offset. Not fun.

So add a debug warning, to make sure if something ever sets
the PAT bit then this function gets updated too.

3c3e5694ad x86: check PMD in spurious_fault handler
Impact: fix to prevent hard lockup on bad PMD permissions

If the PMD does not have the correct permissions for a page access,
but the PTE does, the spurious fault handler will mistake the fault
as a lazy TLB transaction. This will result in an infinite loop of:

 fault -> spurious_fault check (pass) -> return to code -> fault

This patch adds a check and a warn on if the PTE passes the permissions
but the PMD does not.

07a66d7c53 x86: use the right protections for split-up pagetables
Steven Rostedt found a bug in where in his modified kernel
ftrace was unable to modify the kernel text, due to the PMD
itself having been marked read-only as well in
split_large_page().

The fix, suggested by Linus, is to not try to 'clone' the
reference protection of a huge-page, but to use the standard
(and permissive) page protection bits of KERNPG_TABLE.

The 'cloning' makes sense for the ptes but it's a confused and
incorrect concept at the page table level - because the
pagetable entry is a set of all ptes and hence cannot
'clone' any single protection attribute - the ptes can be any
mixture of protections.

With the permissive KERNPG_TABLE, even if the pte protections
get changed after this point (due to ftrace doing code-patching
or other similar activities like kprobes), the resulting combined
protections will still be correct and the pte's restrictive
(or permissive) protections will control it.

Also update the comment.

This bug was there for a long time but has not caused visible
problems before as it needs a rather large read-only area to
trigger. Steve possibly hacked his kernel with some really
large arrays or so. Anyway, the bug is definitely worth fixing.

[ Huang Ying also experienced problems in this area when writing
  the EFI code, but the real bug in split_large_page() was not
  realized back then. ]

f2dbcfa738 mm: clean up for early_pfn_to_nid()
What's happening is that the assertion in mm/page_alloc.c:move_freepages()
is triggering:

	BUG_ON(page_zone(start_page) != page_zone(end_page));

Once I knew this is what was happening, I added some annotations:

	if (unlikely(page_zone(start_page) != page_zone(end_page))) {
		printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: Bogus zones: "
		       "start_page[%p] end_page[%p] zone[%p]\n",
		       start_page, end_page, zone);
		printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: "
		       "start_zone[%p] end_zone[%p]\n",
		       page_zone(start_page), page_zone(end_page));
		printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: "
		       "start_pfn[0x%lx] end_pfn[0x%lx]\n",
		       page_to_pfn(start_page), page_to_pfn(end_page));
		printk(KERN_ERR "move_freepages: "
		       "start_nid[%d] end_nid[%d]\n",
		       page_to_nid(start_page), page_to_nid(end_page));
 ...

And here's what I got:

	move_freepages: Bogus zones: start_page[2207d0000] end_page[2207dffc0] zone[fffff8103effcb00]
	move_freepages: start_zone[fffff8103effcb00] end_zone[fffff8003fffeb00]
	move_freepages: start_pfn[0x81f600] end_pfn[0x81f7ff]
	move_freepages: start_nid[1] end_nid[0]

My memory layout on this box is:

[    0.000000] Zone PFN ranges:
[    0.000000]   Normal   0x00000000 -> 0x0081ff5d
[    0.000000] Movable zone start PFN for each node
[    0.000000] early_node_map[8] active PFN ranges
[    0.000000]     0: 0x00000000 -> 0x00020000
[    0.000000]     1: 0x00800000 -> 0x0081f7ff
[    0.000000]     1: 0x0081f800 -> 0x0081fe50
[    0.000000]     1: 0x0081fed1 -> 0x0081fed8
[    0.000000]     1: 0x0081feda -> 0x0081fedb
[    0.000000]     1: 0x0081fedd -> 0x0081fee5
[    0.000000]     1: 0x0081fee7 -> 0x0081ff51
[    0.000000]     1: 0x0081ff59 -> 0x0081ff5d

So it's a block move in that 0x81f600-->0x81f7ff region which triggers
the problem.

This patch:

Declaration of early_pfn_to_nid() is scattered over per-arch include
files, and it seems it's complicated to know when the declaration is used.
 I think it makes fix-for-memmap-init not easy.

This patch moves all declaration to include/linux/mm.h

After this,
  if !CONFIG_NODES_POPULATES_NODE_MAP && !CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_EARLY_PFN_TO_NID
     -> Use static definition in include/linux/mm.h
  else if !CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_EARLY_PFN_TO_NID
     -> Use generic definition in mm/page_alloc.c
  else
     -> per-arch back end function will be called.

7ad9de6ac8 x86: CPA avoid repeated lazy mmu flush
Impact: Flush the lazy MMU only once

Pending mmu updates only need to be flushed once to bring the
in-memory pagetable state up to date.

4769843bc2 x86, 32-bit: clean up find_low_pfn_range()
Impact: cleanup

Split find_low_pfn_range() into two functions:

 - lowmem_pfn_init()
 - highmem_pfn_init()

The former gets called if all of RAM fits into lowmem,
otherwise we call highmem_pfn_init().

be03d9e802 x86, pat: fix warn_on_once() while mapping 0-1MB range with /dev/mem
Jeff Mahoney reported:

> With Suse's hwinfo tool, on -tip:
> WARNING: at arch/x86/mm/pat.c:637 reserve_pfn_range+0x5b/0x26d()

reserve_pfn_range() is not tracking the memory range below 1MB
as non-RAM and as such is inconsistent with similar checks in
reserve_memtype() and free_memtype()

Rename the pagerange_is_ram() to pat_pagerange_is_ram() and add the
"track legacy 1MB region as non RAM" condition.

And also, fix reserve_pfn_range() to return -EINVAL, when the pfn
range is RAM. This is to be consistent with this API design.

4f06b0436b x86/cpa: make sure cpa is safe to call in lazy mmu mode
Impact: fix race leading to crash under KVM and Xen

The CPA code may be called while we're in lazy mmu update mode - for
example, when using DEBUG_PAGE_ALLOC and doing a slab allocation
in an interrupt handler which interrupted a lazy mmu update.  In this
case, the in-memory pagetable state may be out of date due to pending
queued updates.  We need to flush any pending updates before inspecting
the page table.  Similarly, we must explicitly flush any modifications
CPA may have made (which comes down to flushing queued operations when
flushing the TLB).

Don't use per_cpu_offset() to determine if it valid to access a

on x86-64 anymore. Use cpu_possible() instead.
