This change makes later calculations about where the kernel is located
easier to reason about. To better understand this change, we must first
clarify what 'VO' and 'ZO' are. These values were introduced in commits
by hpa:
77d1a4999502 ("x86, boot: make symbols from the main vmlinux available")
37ba7ab5e33c ("x86, boot: make kernel_alignment adjustable; new bzImage fields")
Specifically:
All names prefixed with 'VO_':
- relate to the uncompressed kernel image
- the size of the VO image is: VO__end-VO__text ("VO_INIT_SIZE" define)
All names prefixed with 'ZO_':
- relate to the bootable compressed kernel image (boot/compressed/vmlinux),
which is composed of the following memory areas:
- head text
- compressed kernel (VO image and relocs table)
- decompressor code
- the size of the ZO image is: ZO__end - ZO_startup_32 ("ZO_INIT_SIZE" define, though see below)
The 'INIT_SIZE' value is used to find the larger of the two image sizes:
#define ZO_INIT_SIZE (ZO__end - ZO_startup_32 + ZO_z_extract_offset)
#define VO_INIT_SIZE (VO__end - VO__text)
#if ZO_INIT_SIZE > VO_INIT_SIZE
# define INIT_SIZE ZO_INIT_SIZE
#else
# define INIT_SIZE VO_INIT_SIZE
#endif
The current code uses extract_offset to decide where to position the
copied ZO (i.e. ZO starts at extract_offset). (This is why ZO_INIT_SIZE
currently includes the extract_offset.)
Why does z_extract_offset exist? It's needed because we are trying to minimize
the amount of RAM used for the whole act of creating an uncompressed, executable,
properly relocation-linked kernel image in system memory. We do this so that
kernels can be booted on even very small systems.
To achieve the goal of minimal memory consumption we have implemented an in-place
decompression strategy: instead of cleanly separating the VO and ZO images and
also allocating some memory for the decompression code's runtime needs, we instead
create this elaborate layout of memory buffers where the output (decompressed)
stream, as it progresses, overlaps with and destroys the input (compressed)
stream. This can only be done safely if the ZO image is placed to the end of the
VO range, plus a certain amount of safety distance to make sure that when the last
bytes of the VO range are decompressed, the compressed stream pointer is safely
beyond the end of the VO range.
z_extract_offset is calculated in arch/x86/boot/compressed/mkpiggy.c during
the build process, at a point when we know the exact compressed and
uncompressed size of the kernel images and can calculate this safe minimum
offset value. (Note that the mkpiggy.c calculation is not perfect, because
we don't know the decompressor used at that stage, so the z_extract_offset
calculation is necessarily imprecise and is mostly based on gzip internals -
we'll improve that in the next patch.)
When INIT_SIZE is bigger than VO_INIT_SIZE (uncommon but possible),
the copied ZO occupies the memory from extract_offset to the end of
decompression buffer. It overlaps with the soon-to-be-uncompressed kernel
like this:
|-----compressed kernel image------|
V V
0 extract_offset +INIT_SIZE
|-----------|---------------|-------------------------|--------|
| | | |
VO__text startup_32 of ZO VO__end ZO__end
^ ^
|-------uncompressed kernel image---------|
When INIT_SIZE is equal to VO_INIT_SIZE (likely) there's still space
left from end of ZO to the end of decompressing buffer, like below.
|-compressed kernel image-|
V V
0 extract_offset +INIT_SIZE
|-----------|---------------|-------------------------|--------|
| | | |
VO__text startup_32 of ZO ZO__end VO__end
^ ^
|------------uncompressed kernel image-------------|
To simplify calculations and avoid special cases, it is cleaner to
always place the compressed kernel image in memory so that ZO__end
is at the end of the decompression buffer, instead of placing t at
the start of extract_offset as is currently done.
This patch adds BP_init_size (which is the INIT_SIZE as passed in from
the boot_params) into asm-offsets.c to make it visible to the assembly
code.
Then when moving the ZO, it calculates the starting position of
the copied ZO (via BP_init_size and the ZO run size) so that the VO__end
will be at the end of the decompression buffer. To make the position
calculation safe, the end of ZO is page aligned (and a comment is added
to the existing VO alignment for good measure).

When processing the relocation table, the offset used to calculate the
relocation is an 'int'. This is sufficient for calculating the physical
address of the relocs entry on 32-bit systems and on 64-bit systems when
the relocation is under 2G.
To handle relocations above 2G (seen in situations like kexec, netboot, etc),
this offset needs to be calculated using a 'long' to avoid wrapping and
miscalculating the relocation.

Instead of having non-standard memcpy() behavior, explicitly call the new
function memmove(), make it available to the decompressors, and switch
the two overlap cases (screen scrolling and ELF parsing) to use memmove().
Additionally documents the purpose of compressed/string.c.

As per hpa CE4100 platforms can also disable pnpbios:
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/5702B5C2.7070101@zytor.com
Then Sebastian also recently noted that CE4100 also disables
RTC probe, to do that Sebastian had long ago added the RTC
of_have_populated_dt() check, he noted that it was meant to
skip the RTC probe on all OF platforms but as of now, CE4100
was the only x86 DT using this.
We can just fold this requirement into the platform quirk
then. This now means that all of these match platform quirks
for pnpbios and RTC preferences:
* X86_SUBARCH_XEN
* X86_SUBARCH_LGUEST
* X86_SUBARCH_INTEL_MID
* X86_SUBARCH_CE4100

ACPI 5.2.9.3 IA-PC Boot Architecture flag ACPI_FADT_LEGACY_DEVICES
can be used to determine if a system has legacy devices LPC or
ISA devices. The x86 platform already has a struct which lists
known associated legacy devices, we start off careful only
by disabling root devices we should not regress with. The struct
and device list can be expanded with time to cover more root
legacy components.

Since we are removing paravirt_enabled() replace it with a
logical equivalent. Even though PNPBIOS is x86 specific we
add an arch-specific type call, which can be implemented by
any architecture to show how other legacy attribute devices
can later be also checked for with other ACPI legacy attribute
flags.
This implicates the first ACPI 5.2.9.3 IA-PC Boot Architecture
ACPI_FADT_LEGACY_DEVICES flag device, and shows how to add more.
The reason pnpbios gets a defined structure and as such uses
a different approach than the RTC legacy quirk is that ACPI
has a respective RTC flag, while pnpbios does not. We fold
the pnpbios quirk under ACPI_FADT_LEGACY_DEVICES ACPI flag
use case, and use a struct of possible devices to enable
future extensions of this.
As per 0-day, this bumps the vmlinux size using i386-tinyconfig as
follows:
TOTAL TEXT init.text x86_early_init_platform_quirks()
+32 +28 +28 +28
That's 4 byte overhead total, the rest is cleared out on init
as its all __init text.
v2: split out subarch handlng on switch to make it easier
later to add other subarchs. The 'fall-through' switch
handling can be confusing and we'll remove it later
when we add handling for X86_SUBARCH_CE4100.
v3: document vmlinux size impact as per 0-day, and also
explain why pnpbios is treated differently than the
RTC legacy feature.

The X86_BUG_F00F work around is responsible for fixing up the error
generated on attempted F00F exploitation from an OOPS to a SIGILL.
There is no reason why this code should not be allowed to run on
PV guest on a F00F-affected CPU -- it would simply never trigger.
The pv_enabled() check was there only to avoid printing the f00f
workaround, so removing the check is purely a cosmetic change.

There is already a check for boot_params.tboot_addr prior
to paravirt_enabled(). Both Xen and lguest, which are also the
only ones that set paravirt_enabled to true, never set the
boot_params.tboot_addr. The Xen folks are sure a force disable
to 0 is not needed, we recently forced disabled this on lguest.
With this in place this check is no longer needed.
Xen folks are sure force disable to 0 is not needed because
apm_info lives in .bss, we recently forced disabled this on
lguest, and on the Xen side just to be sure Boris zeroed out
the .bss for PV guests through commit 04b6b4a56884327c1648
("xen/x86: Zero out .bss for PV guests"). With this care taken
into consideration the paravirt_enabled() check is simply not
needed anymore.

There is already a check for apm_info.bios == 0, the
apm_info.bios is set from the boot_params.apm_bios_info.
Both Xen and lguest, which are also the only ones that set
paravirt_enabled to true, never set the apm_bios.info. The
Xen folks are sure force disable to 0 is not needed because
apm_info lives in .bss, we recently forced disabled this on
lguest, and on the Xen side just to be sure Boris zeroed out
the .bss for PV guests through commit 04b6b4a56884327c1648
("xen/x86: Zero out .bss for PV guests"). With this care taken
into consideration the paravirt_enabled() check is simply not
needed anymore.

This replaces the paravirt_enabled() check with a
proper x86 legacy platform quirk.
As per 0-day, this bumps the vmlinux size using i386-tinyconfig as
follows:
TOTAL TEXT init.text x86_early_init_platform_quirks()
+39 +35 +35 +25
That's a 4 byte total overhead, the rest is all cleared out
upon init as its all __init text.

This moves the ACPI specific check into the ACPI boot code,
it also takes advantage of the x86_platform.legacy.rtc which
is checked for already on the RTC initialization code. This
lets us remove the nasty #ifdefery and consolidate the checks
to use only one toggle to disable the RTC init code.
The works as RTC is initialized by device_initcall(add_rtc_cmos),
this will run late in boot on start_kernel() during rest_init(),
acpi_parse_fadt() gets called earlier during setup_arch().

We have 4 types of x86 platforms that disable RTC:
* Intel MID
* Lguest - uses paravirt
* Xen dom-U - uses paravirt
* x86 on legacy systems annotated with an ACPI legacy flag
We can consolidate all of these into a platform specific legacy
quirk set early in boot through i386_start_kernel() and through
x86_64_start_reservations(). This deals with the RTC quirks which
we can rely on through the hardware subarch, the ACPI check can
be dealt with separately.
For Xen things are bit more complex given that the @X86_SUBARCH_XEN
x86_hardware_subarch is shared on for Xen which uses the PV path for
both domU and dom0. Since the semantics for differentiating between
the two are Xen specific we provide a platform helper to help override
default legacy features -- x86_platform.set_legacy_features(). Use
of this helper is highly discouraged, its only purpose should be
to account for the lack of semantics available within your given
x86_hardware_subarch.
As per 0-day, this bumps the vmlinux size using i386-tinyconfig as
follows:
TOTAL TEXT init.text x86_early_init_platform_quirks()
+70 +62 +62 +43
Only 8 bytes overhead total, as the main increase in size is
all removed via __init.

Although hardware_subarch has been in place since the x86 boot
protocol 2.07 it hasn't been used much. Enumerate current possible
values to avoid misuses and help with semantics later at boot
time should this be used further.
These enums should only ever be used by architecture x86 code,
and all that code should be well contained and compartamentalized,
clarify that as well.

Two uses of memcpy() (screen scrolling and ELF parsing) were handling
overlapping memory areas. While there were no explicitly noticed bugs
here (yet), it is best to fix this so that the copying will always be
safe.
Instead of making a new memmove() function that might collide with other
memmove() definitions in the decompressors, this just makes the compressed
boot code's copy of memcpy() overlap-safe.

Currently CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE_MAX_OFFSET is used to limit the maximum
offset for kernel randomization. This limit doesn't need to be a CONFIG
since it is tied completely to KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE, and will make no sense
once physical and virtual offsets are randomized separately. This patch
removes CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE_MAX_OFFSET and consolidates the Kconfig
help text.

The comment that describes the analysis for the size of the decompressor
code only took gzip into account (there are currently 6 other decompressors
that could be used). The actual z_extract_offset calculation in code was
already handling the correct maximum size, but this documentation hadn't
been updated. This updates the documentation, fixes several typos, moves
the comment to header.S, updates references, and adds a note at the end
of the decompressor include list to remind us about updating the comment
in the future.
(Instead of moving the comment to mkpiggy.c, where the calculation
is currently happening, it is being moved to header.S because
the calculations in mkpiggy.c will be removed in favor of header.S
calculations in a following patch, and it seemed like overkill to move
the giant comment twice, especially when there's already reference to
z_extract_offset in header.S.)

The non-compressed boot code uses the (much more obvious) name
"boot_params" for the global pointer to the x86 boot parameters. The
compressed kernel loader code, though, was using the legacy name
"real_mode". There is no need to have a different name, and changing it
improves readability.

Since the boot_params can be found using the real_mode global variable,
there is no need to pass around a pointer to it. This slightly simplifies
the choose_kernel_location function and its callers.

This reverts commit c4004b02f8e5b9ce357a0bb1641756cc86962664.
Sadly, my hope that nobody would actually use the special kernel entries
in /proc/iomem were dashed by kexec. Which reads /proc/iomem explicitly
to find the kernel base address. Nasty.
Anyway, that means we can't do the sane and simple thing and just remove
the entries, and we'll instead have to mask them out based on permissions.

An interrupt handler that uses the fpu can kill a KVM VM, if it runs
under the following conditions:
- the guest's xcr0 register is loaded on the cpu
- the guest's fpu context is not loaded
- the host is using eagerfpu
Note that the guest's xcr0 register and fpu context are not loaded as
part of the atomic world switch into "guest mode". They are loaded by
KVM while the cpu is still in "host mode".
Usage of the fpu in interrupt context is gated by irq_fpu_usable(). The
interrupt handler will look something like this:
if (irq_fpu_usable()) {
kernel_fpu_begin();
[... code that uses the fpu ...]
kernel_fpu_end();
}
As long as the guest's fpu is not loaded and the host is using eager
fpu, irq_fpu_usable() returns true (interrupted_kernel_fpu_idle()
returns true). The interrupt handler proceeds to use the fpu with
the guest's xcr0 live.
kernel_fpu_begin() saves the current fpu context. If this uses
XSAVE[OPT], it may leave the xsave area in an undesirable state.
According to the SDM, during XSAVE bit i of XSTATE_BV is not modified
if bit i is 0 in xcr0. So it's possible that XSTATE_BV[i] == 1 and
xcr0[i] == 0 following an XSAVE.
kernel_fpu_end() restores the fpu context. Now if any bit i in
XSTATE_BV == 1 while xcr0[i] == 0, XRSTOR generates a #GP. The
fault is trapped and SIGSEGV is delivered to the current process.
Only pre-4.2 kernels appear to be vulnerable to this sequence of
events. Commit 653f52c ("kvm,x86: load guest FPU context more eagerly")
from 4.2 forces the guest's fpu to always be loaded on eagerfpu hosts.
This patch fixes the bug by keeping the host's xcr0 loaded outside
of the interrupts-disabled region where KVM switches into guest mode.

Let's see if anybody even notices. I doubt anybody uses this, and it
does expose addresses that should be randomized, so let's just remove
the code. It's old and traditional, and it used to be cute, but we
should have removed this long ago.
If it turns out anybody notices and this breaks something, we'll have to
revert this, and maybe we'll end up using other approaches instead
(using %pK or similar). But removing unnecessary code is always the
preferred option.

When a vCPU runs on a nohz_full core, the hrtimer used by
the lapic emulation code can be migrated to another core.
When this happens, it's possible to observe milisecond
latency when delivering timer IRQs to KVM guests.
The huge latency is mainly due to the fact that
apic_timer_fn() expects to run during a kvm exit. It
sets KVM_REQ_PENDING_TIMER and let it be handled on kvm
entry. However, if the timer fires on a different core,
we have to wait until the next kvm exit for the guest
to see KVM_REQ_PENDING_TIMER set.
This problem became visible after commit 9642d18ee. This
commit changed the timer migration code to always attempt
to migrate timers away from nohz_full cores. While it's
discussable if this is correct/desirable (I don't think
it is), it's clear that the lapic emulation code has
a requirement on firing the hrtimer in the same core
where it was started. This is achieved by making the
hrtimer pinned.
Lastly, note that KVM has code to migrate timers when a
vCPU is scheduled to run in different core. However, this
forced migration may fail. When this happens, we can have
the same problem. If we want 100% correctness, we'll have
to modify apic_timer_fn() to cause a kvm exit when it runs
on a different core than the vCPU. Not sure if this is
possible.
Here's a reproducer for the issue being fixed:
1. Set all cores but core0 to be nohz_full cores
2. Start a guest with a single vCPU
3. Trace apic_timer_fn() and kvm_inject_apic_timer_irqs()
You'll see that apic_timer_fn() will run in core0 while
kvm_inject_apic_timer_irqs() runs in a different core. If
you get both on core0, try running a program that takes 100%
of the CPU and pin it to core0 to force the vCPU out.

The recently introduced batched invalidations mechanism uses its own
mechanism for shootdown. However, it does wrong accounting of
interrupts (e.g., inc_irq_stat is called for local invalidations),
trace-points (e.g., TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN for local invalidations) and
may break some platforms as it bypasses the invalidation mechanisms of
Xen and SGI UV.
This patch reuses the existing TLB flushing mechnaisms instead. We use
NULL as mm to indicate a global invalidation is required.

Windows lets applications choose the frequency of the timer tick,
and in Windows 10 the maximum rate was changed from 1024 Hz to
2048 Hz. Unfortunately, because of the way the Windows API
works, most applications who need a higher rate than the default
64 Hz will just do
timeGetDevCaps(&tc, sizeof(tc));
timeBeginPeriod(tc.wPeriodMin);
and pick the maximum rate. This causes very high CPU usage when
playing media or games on Windows 10, even if the guest does not
actually use the CPU very much, because the frequent timer tick
causes halt_poll_ns to kick in.
There is no really good solution, especially because Microsoft
could sooner or later bump the limit to 4096 Hz, but for now
the best we can do is lower a bit the upper limit for
halt_poll_ns. :-(
