commit 90a2282e23f0522e4b3f797ad447c5e91bf7fe32 upstream.

First of all there is no point in looking up the irq descriptor again, but we
also need the descriptor for the final cleanup race fix in the next
patch. Make that change seperate. No functional difference.

commit 3625c2c234ef66acf21a72d47a5ffa94f6c5ebf2 upstream.

For PAE kernels "unsigned long" is not suitable to hold page protection
flags, since _PAGE_NX doesn't fit there. This is the reason for quite a
few W+X pages getting reported as insecure during boot (observed namely
for the entire initrd range).

commit 71b3c126e61177eb693423f2e18a1914205b165e upstream.

When switch_mm() activates a new PGD, it also sets a bit that
tells other CPUs that the PGD is in use so that TLB flush IPIs
will be sent.  In order for that to work correctly, the bit
needs to be visible prior to loading the PGD and therefore
starting to fill the local TLB.

Document all the barriers that make this work correctly and add
a couple that were missing.

commit 8c31902cffc4d716450be549c66a67a8a3dd479c upstream.

When decompressing kernel image during x86 bootup, malloc memory
for ELF program headers may run out of heap space, which leads
to system halt.  This patch doubles BOOT_HEAP_SIZE to 64KB.

Tested with 32-bit kernel which failed to boot without this patch.

<title>x86/paravirt: Prevent rtc_cmos platform device init on PV guests</title>

<id>d8c98a1d1488747625ad6044d423406e17e99b7a</id>
<content type='text'>
Adding the rtc platform device in non-privileged Xen PV guests causes
an IRQ conflict because these guests do not have legacy PIC and may
allocate irqs in the legacy range.

In a single VCPU Xen PV guest we should have:

/proc/interrupts:
           CPU0
  0:       4934  xen-percpu-virq      timer0
  1:          0  xen-percpu-ipi       spinlock0
  2:          0  xen-percpu-ipi       resched0
  3:          0  xen-percpu-ipi       callfunc0
  4:          0  xen-percpu-virq      debug0
  5:          0  xen-percpu-ipi       callfuncsingle0
  6:          0  xen-percpu-ipi       irqwork0
  7:        321   xen-dyn-event     xenbus
  8:         90   xen-dyn-event     hvc_console
  ...

But hvc_console cannot get its interrupt because it is already in use
by rtc0 and the console does not work.

  genirq: Flags mismatch irq 8. 00000000 (hvc_console) vs. 00000000 (rtc0)

We can avoid this problem by realizing that unprivileged PV guests (both
Xen and lguests) are not supposed to have rtc_cmos device and so
adding it is not necessary.

Privileged guests (i.e. Xen's dom0) do use it but they should not have
irq conflicts since they allocate irqs above legacy range (above
gsi_top, in fact).

Instead of explicitly testing whether the guest is privileged we can
extend pv_info structure to include information about guest's RTC
support.

<title>x86/xen: Avoid fast syscall path for Xen PV guests</title>

<id>91e2eea98f94a2ebb143d4c4cdeaa4573d62dc17</id>
<content type='text'>
After 32-bit syscall rewrite, and specifically after commit:

  5f310f739b4c ("x86/entry/32: Re-implement SYSENTER using the new C path")

... the stack frame that is passed to xen_sysexit is no longer a
"standard" one (i.e. it's not pt_regs).

Since we end up calling xen_iret from xen_sysexit we don't need
to fix up the stack and instead follow entry_SYSENTER_32's IRET
path directly to xen_iret.

We can do the same thing for compat mode even though stack does
not need to be fixed. This will allow us to drop usergs_sysret32
paravirt op (in the subsequent patch)

After 32-bit syscall rewrite, and specifically after commit:

  5f310f739b4c ("x86/entry/32: Re-implement SYSENTER using the new C path")

... the stack frame that is passed to xen_sysexit is no longer a
"standard" one (i.e. it's not pt_regs).

Since we end up calling xen_iret from xen_sysexit we don't need
to fix up the stack and instead follow entry_SYSENTER_32's IRET
path directly to xen_iret.

We can do the same thing for compat mode even though stack does
not need to be fixed. This will allow us to drop usergs_sysret32
paravirt op (in the subsequent patch)

<title>x86/mm: Fix regression with huge pages on PAE</title>

Recent PAT patchset has caused issue on 32-bit PAE machines:

  page:eea45000 count:0 mapcount:-128 mapping:  (null) index:0x0 flags: 0x40000000()
  page dumped because: VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page_mapcount(page) &lt; 0)
  ------------[ cut here ]------------
  kernel BUG at /home/build/linux-boris/mm/huge_memory.c:1485!
  invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP
  [...]
  Call Trace:
   unmap_single_vma
   ? __wake_up
   unmap_vmas
   unmap_region
   do_munmap
   vm_munmap
   SyS_munmap
   do_fast_syscall_32
   ? __do_page_fault
   sysenter_past_esp
  Code: ...
  EIP: [&lt;c11bde80&gt;] zap_huge_pmd+0x240/0x260 SS:ESP 0068:f6459d98

The problem is in pmd_pfn_mask() and pmd_flags_mask(). These
helpers use PMD_PAGE_MASK to calculate resulting mask.
PMD_PAGE_MASK is 'unsigned long', not 'unsigned long long' as
phys_addr_t is on 32-bit PAE (ARCH_PHYS_ADDR_T_64BIT). As a
result, the upper bits of resulting mask get truncated.

pud_pfn_mask() and pud_flags_mask() aren't problematic since we
don't have PUD page table level on 32-bit systems, but it's
reasonable to keep them consistent with PMD counterpart.

Introduce PHYSICAL_PMD_PAGE_MASK and PHYSICAL_PUD_PAGE_MASK in
addition to existing PHYSICAL_PAGE_MASK and reworks helpers to
use them.
