Please first read the description in "xen/p2m: Add logic to revector a
P2M tree to use __va leafs" patch.
The 'xen_revector_p2m_tree()' function allocates a new P2M tree
copies the contents of the old one in it, and returns the new one.
At this stage, the __ka address space (which is what the old
P2M tree was using) is partially disassembled. The cleanup_highmap
has removed the PMD entries from 0-16MB and anything past _brk_end
up to the max_pfn_mapped (which is the end of the ramdisk).
We have revectored the P2M tree (and the one for save/restore as well)
to use new shiny __va address to new MFNs. The xen_start_info
has been taken care of already in 'xen_setup_kernel_pagetable()' and
xen_start_info->shared_info in 'xen_setup_shared_info()', so
we are free to roam and delete PMD entries - which is exactly what
we are going to do. We rip out the __ka for the old P2M array.

During bootup Xen supplies us with a P2M array. It sticks
it right after the ramdisk, as can be seen with a 128GB PV guest:
(certain parts removed for clarity):
xc_dom_build_image: called
xc_dom_alloc_segment: kernel : 0xffffffff81000000 -> 0xffffffff81e43000 (pfn 0x1000 + 0xe43 pages)

xc_dom_build_image : virt_alloc_end : 0xffffffffa26e2000
xc_dom_build_image : virt_pgtab_end : 0xffffffffa2800000
So the physical memory and virtual (using __START_KERNEL_map addresses)
layout looks as so:
phys __ka
/------------\ /-------------------\
| 0 | empty | 0xffffffff80000000|
| .. | | .. |

| 550MB | <= PGT end => | 0xffffffffa26e1000|
| .. | boot stack | |
\------------/ \-------------------/
As can be seen, the ramdisk, P2M and pagetables are taking
a bit of __ka addresses space. Which is a problem since the
MODULES_VADDR starts at 0xffffffffa0000000 - and P2M sits
right in there! This results during bootup with the inability to
load modules, with this error:

Since the __va and __ka are 1:1 up to MODULES_VADDR and
cleanup_highmap rids __ka of the ramdisk mapping, what
we want to do is similar - get rid of the P2M in the __ka
address space. There are two ways of fixing this:
1) All P2M lookups instead of using the __ka address would
use the __va address. This means we can safely erase from
__ka space the PMD pointers that point to the PFNs for
P2M array and be OK.
2). Allocate a new array, copy the existing P2M into it,
revector the P2M tree to use that, and return the old
P2M to the memory allocate. This has the advantage that
it sets the stage for using XEN_ELF_NOTE_INIT_P2M
feature. That feature allows us to set the exact virtual
address space we want for the P2M - and allows us to
boot as initial domain on large machines.
So we pick option 2).
This patch only lays the groundwork in the P2M code. The patch
that modifies the MMU is called "xen/mmu: Copy and revector the P2M tree."

B/c we do not need it. During the startup the Xen provides
us with all the initial memory mapped that we need to function.
The initial memory mapped is up to the bootstack, which means
we can reference using __ka up to 4.f):
(from xen/interface/xen.h):
4. This the order of bootstrap elements in the initial virtual region:
a. relocated kernel image
b. initial ram disk [mod_start, mod_len]

This reverts commit 806c312e50 and
commit 59b294403e.
And also documents setup.c and why we want to do it that way, which
is that we tried to make the the memblock_reserve more selective so
that it would be clear what region is reserved. Sadly we ran
in the problem wherein on a 64-bit hypervisor with a 32-bit
initial domain, the pt_base has the cr3 value which is not
neccessarily where the pagetable starts! As Jan put it: "
Actually, the adjustment turns out to be correct: The page
tables for a 32-on-64 dom0 get allocated in the order "first L1",
"first L2", "first L3", so the offset to the page table base is
indeed 2. When reading xen/include/public/xen.h's comment
very strictly, this is not a violation (since there nothing is said
that the first thing in the page table space is pointed to by
pt_base; I admit that this seems to be implied though, namely
do I think that it is implied that the page table space is the
range [pt_base, pt_base + nt_pt_frames), whereas that
range here indeed is [pt_base - 2, pt_base - 2 + nt_pt_frames),
which - without a priori knowledge - the kernel would have
difficulty to figure out)." - so lets just fall back to the
easy way and reserve the whole region.

If a 64-bit hypervisor is booted with a 32-bit initial domain,
the hypervisor deals with the initial domain as "compat" and
does some extra adjustments (like pagetables are 4 bytes instead
of 8). It also adjusts the xen_start_info->pt_base incorrectly.
When booted with a 32-bit hypervisor (32-bit initial domain):
..
(XEN) Start info: cf831000->cf83147c
(XEN) Page tables: cf832000->cf8b5000
..
[ 0.000000] PT: cf832000 (f832000)
[ 0.000000] Reserving PT: f832000->f8b5000
And with a 64-bit hypervisor:
(XEN) Start info: 00000000cf831000->00000000cf8314b4
(XEN) Page tables: 00000000cf832000->00000000cf8b6000
[ 0.000000] PT: cf834000 (f834000)
[ 0.000000] Reserving PT: f834000->f8b8000
To deal with this, we keep keep track of the highest physical
address we have reserved via memblock_reserve. If that address
does not overlap with pt_base, we have a gap which we reserve.

The explanation is in the comment within the code:
We need to do this because the pages shared by the frontend
(xen-blkfront) can be already locked (lock_page, called by
do_read_cache_page); when the userspace backend tries to use them
with direct_IO, mfn_to_pfn returns the pfn of the frontend, so
do_blockdev_direct_IO is going to try to lock the same pages
again resulting in a deadlock.
A simplified call graph looks like this:
pygrub QEMU
-----------------------------------------------
do_read_cache_page io_submit
| |
lock_page ext3_direct_IO
|
bio_add_page
|
lock_page
Internally the xen-blkback uses m2p_add_override to swizzle (temporarily)
a 'struct page' to have a different MFN (so that it can point to another
guest). It also can easily find out whether another pfn corresponding
to the mfn exists in the m2p, and can set the FOREIGN bit
in the p2m, making sure that mfn_to_pfn returns the pfn of the backend.
This allows the backend to perform direct_IO on these pages, but as a
side effect prevents the frontend from using get_user_pages_fast on
them while they are being shared with the backend.

Xen PV kernels allow access to the APERF/MPERF registers to read the
effective frequency. Access to the MSRs is however redirected to the
currently scheduled physical CPU, making consecutive read and
compares unreliable. In addition each rdmsr traps into the hypervisor.
So to avoid bogus readouts and expensive traps, disable the kernel
internal feature flag for APERF/MPERF if running under Xen.
This will
a) remove the aperfmperf flag from /proc/cpuinfo
b) not mislead the power scheduler (arch/x86/kernel/cpu/sched.c) to
use the feature to improve scheduling (by default disabled)
c) not mislead the cpufreq driver to use the MSRs
This does not cover userland programs which access the MSRs via the
device file interface, but this will be addressed separately.

used outside the initial E820 parsing code. As such we would
did not subtract from xen_released_pages the count of pages
that we had populated back (instead we just did a simple
extra_pages = released - populated).
The balloon driver uses xen_released_pages to set the initial
current_pages count. If this is wrong (too low) then when a new
(higher) target is set, the balloon driver will request too many pages
from Xen."

Pull exception table generation updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The biggest change here is to allow the build-time sorting of the
exception table, to speed up booting. This is achieved by the
architecture enabling BUILDTIME_EXTABLE_SORT. This option is enabled
for x86 and MIPS currently.
On x86 a number of fixes and changes were needed to allow build-time
sorting of the exception table, in particular a relocation invariant
exception table format was needed. This required the abstracting out
of exception table protocol and the removal of 20 years of accumulated
assumptions about the x86 exception table format.
While at it, this tree also cleans up various other aspects of
exception handling, such as early(er) exception handling for
rdmsr_safe() et al.
All in one, as the result of these changes the x86 exception code is
now pretty nice and modern. As an added bonus any regressions in this
code will be early and violent crashes, so if you see any of those,
you'll know whom to blame!"

In xen_memory_setup(), if a page that is being released has a VA
mapping this must also be updated. Otherwise, the page will be not
released completely -- it will still be referenced in Xen and won't be
freed util the mapping is removed and this prevents it from being
reallocated at a different PFN.
This was already being done for the ISA memory region in
xen_ident_map_ISA() but on many systems this was omitting a few pages
as many systems marked a few pages below the ISA memory region as
reserved in the e820 map.
This fixes errors such as:
(XEN) page_alloc.c:1148:d0 Over-allocation for domain 0: 2097153 > 2097152

When the Xen hypervisor boots a PV kernel it hands it two pieces
of information: nr_pages and a made up E820 entry.
The nr_pages value defines the range from zero to nr_pages of PFNs
which have a valid Machine Frame Number (MFN) underneath it. The
E820 mirrors that (with the VGA hole):
BIOS-provided physical RAM map:
Xen: 0000000000000000 - 00000000000a0000 (usable)
Xen: 00000000000a0000 - 0000000000100000 (reserved)
Xen: 0000000000100000 - 0000000080800000 (usable)
The fun comes when a PV guest that is run with a machine E820 - that
can either be the initial domain or a PCI PV guest, where the E820
looks like the normal thing:
BIOS-provided physical RAM map:
Xen: 0000000000000000 - 000000000009e000 (usable)
Xen: 000000000009ec00 - 0000000000100000 (reserved)
Xen: 0000000000100000 - 0000000020000000 (usable)
Xen: 0000000020000000 - 0000000020200000 (reserved)
Xen: 0000000020200000 - 0000000040000000 (usable)
Xen: 0000000040000000 - 0000000040200000 (reserved)
Xen: 0000000040200000 - 00000000bad80000 (usable)
Xen: 00000000bad80000 - 00000000badc9000 (ACPI NVS)
..
With that overlaying the nr_pages directly on the E820 does not
work as there are gaps and non-RAM regions that won't be used
by the memory allocator. The 'xen_release_chunk' helps with that
by punching holes in the P2M (PFN to MFN lookup tree) for those
regions and tells us that:
Freeing 20000-20200 pfn range: 512 pages freed
Freeing 40000-40200 pfn range: 512 pages freed
Freeing bad80-badf4 pfn range: 116 pages freed
Freeing badf6-bae7f pfn range: 137 pages freed
Freeing bb000-100000 pfn range: 282624 pages freed
Released 283999 pages of unused memory
Those 283999 pages are subtracted from the nr_pages and are returned
to the hypervisor. The end result is that the initial domain
boots with 1GB less memory as the nr_pages has been subtracted by
the amount of pages residing within the PCI hole. It can balloon up
to that if desired using 'xl mem-set 0 8092', but the balloon driver
is not always compiled in for the initial domain.
This patch, implements the populate hypercall (XENMEM_populate_physmap)
which increases the the domain with the same amount of pages that
were released.
The other solution (that did not work) was to transplant the MFN in
the P2M tree - the ones that were going to be freed were put in
the E820_RAM regions past the nr_pages. But the modifications to the
M2P array (the other side of creating PTEs) were not carried away.
As the hypervisor is the only one capable of modifying that and the
only two hypercalls that would do this are: the update_va_mapping
(which won't work, as during initial bootup only PFNs up to nr_pages
are mapped in the guest) or via the populate hypercall.
The end result is that the kernel can now boot with the
nr_pages without having to subtract the 283999 pages.
On a 8GB machine, with various dom0_mem= parameters this is what we get:
no dom0_mem
-Memory: 6485264k/9435136k available (5817k kernel code, 1136060k absent, 1813812k reserved, 2899k data, 696k init)

which is due to the fact we are trying to access a PFN that is not
accessible to us. The reason (at least in this case) was that
PGD[256] is set to __HYPERVISOR_VIRT_START which was setup (by the
hypervisor) to point to a read-only linear map of the MFN->PFN array.
During our parsing we would get the MFN (a valid one), try to look
it up in the MFN->PFN tree and find it invalid and return ~0 as PFN.
Then pte_mfn_to_pfn would happilly feed that in, attach the flags
and return it back to the caller. 'ptdump_show' bitshifts it and
gets and invalid value that it tries to dereference.
Instead of doing all of that, we detect the ~0 case and just
return !_PAGE_PRESENT.

On x86_64 on AMD machines where the first APIC_ID is not zero, we get:
ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x01] lapic_id[0x10] enabled)
BIOS bug: APIC version is 0 for CPU 1/0x10, fixing up to 0x10
BIOS bug: APIC version mismatch, boot CPU: 0, CPU 1: version 10
which means that when the ACPI processor driver loads and
tries to parse the _Pxx states it fails to do as, as it
ends up calling acpi_get_cpuid which does this:
for_each_possible_cpu(i) {
if (cpu_physical_id(i) == apic_id)
return i;
}
And the bootup CPU, has not been found so it fails and returns -1
for the first CPU - which then subsequently in the loop that
"acpi_processor_get_info" does results in returning an error, which
means that "acpi_processor_add" failing and per_cpu(processor)
is never set (and is NULL).
That means that when xen-acpi-processor tries to load (much much
later on) and parse the P-states it gets -ENODEV from
acpi_processor_register_performance() (which tries to read
the per_cpu(processor)) and fails to parse the data.

In xen_restore_fl_direct(), xen_force_evtchn_callback() was being

Fix this by correcting the sense of the conditional jump.
This seems to give a significant performance benefit for some
workloads.
There is some subtle tricksy "..since the check here is trying to
check both pending and masked in a single cmpw, but I think this is
correct. It will call check_events now only when the combined

There are exactly four users of __monitor and __mwait:
- cstate.c (which allows acpi_processor_ffh_cstate_enter to be called
when the cpuidle API drivers are used. However patch
"cpuidle: replace xen access to x86 pm_idle and default_idle"
provides a mechanism to disable the cpuidle and use safe_halt.
- smpboot (which allows mwait_play_dead to be called). However
safe_halt is always used so we skip that.
- intel_idle (same deal as above).
- acpi_pad.c. This the one that we do not want to run as we
will hit the below crash.
Why do we want to expose MWAIT_LEAF in the first place?
We want it for the xen-acpi-processor driver - which uploads
C-states to the hypervisor. If MWAIT_LEAF is set, the cstate.c
sets the proper address in the C-states so that the hypervisor
can benefit from using the MWAIT functionality. And that is
the sole reason for using it.
Without this patch, if a module performs mwait or monitor we
get this:

Remove open-coded exception table entries in arch/x86/xen/xen-asm_32.S,
and replace them with _ASM_EXTABLE() macros; this will allow us to
change the format and type of the exception table entries.

This reverts commit b960d6c43a.
If we have another thread (very likely) touched the list, we
end up hitting a problem "that the next element is wrong because
we should be able to cope with that. The problem is that the
next->next pointer would be set LIST_POISON1. " (Stefano's
comment on the patch).
Reverting for now.

* one is a workaround that will be removed in v3.5 with proper fix in the tip/x86 tree,
* the other is to fix drivers to load on PV (a previous patch made them only
load in PVonHVM mode).
The rest are just minor fixes in the various drivers and some cleanup in the
core code.

xen/pcifront: avoid pci_frontend_enable_msix() falsely returning success

During early bootup we can't use alloc_page, so to allocate
leaf pages in the P2M we need to use extend_brk. For that
we are utilizing the early_alloc_p2m and early_alloc_p2m_middle
functions to do the job for us. This function follows the
same logic as set_phys_to_machine.

At the start of the function we were checking for idx != 0
and bailing out. And later calling extend_brk if idx != 0.
That is unnecessary so remove that checks.
