From: Joerg Roedel <[email protected]>
Hi,
here are a couple of fixes and documentation improvements for the
kernels use of the trampoline_pgd. The first patch adds a comment to
document that the trampoline_pgd aliases kernel page-tables in the
user address range, establishing global TLB entries for these
addresses.
The next two patches add global TLB flushes when switching to and from
the trampoline_pgd. The last patch extends the trampoline_pgd to cover
the whole kernel address range. This is needed to make sure the stack
and the real_mode_header don't get unmapped when switching to the
trampoline_pgd.
Please review.
Thanks,
Joerg

Move the switching code into a function so that it can be re-used and
add a global TLB flush. This makes sure that usage of memory which is
not mapped in the trampoline page-table is reliably caught.

The AP bringup code uses the trampoline_pgd page-table, which
establishes global mappings in the user range of the address space.
Flush the global TLB entries after CR4 is setup for the AP to make sure
no stale entries remain in the TLB.

The trampoline_pgd only maps the 0xfffffff000000000-0xffffffffffffffff
range of kernel memory (with 4-level paging). This range contains the
kernels text+data+bss mappings and the module mapping space, but not the
direct mapping and the vmalloc area.
This is enough to get an application processors out of real-mode, but
for code that switches back to real-mode the trampoline_pgd is missing
important parts of the address space. For example, consider this code
from arch/x86/kernel/reboot.c, function machine_real_restart() for a
64-bit kernel:
#ifdef CONFIG_X86_32
load_cr3(initial_page_table);
#else
write_cr3(real_mode_header->trampoline_pgd);
/* Exiting long mode will fail if CR4.PCIDE is set. */
if (boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_PCID))
cr4_clear_bits(X86_CR4_PCIDE);
#endif
/* Jump to the identity-mapped low memory code */
#ifdef CONFIG_X86_32
asm volatile("jmpl *%0" : :
"rm" (real_mode_header->machine_real_restart_asm),
"a" (type));
#else
asm volatile("ljmpl *%0" : :
"m" (real_mode_header->machine_real_restart_asm),
"D" (type));
#endif
The code switches to the trampoline_pgd, which unmaps the direct mapping
and also the kernel stack. The call to cr4_clear_bits() will find no
stack and crash the machine. The real_mode_header pointer below points
into the direct mapping, and dereferencing it also causes a crash.
The reason this does not crash always is only that kernel mappings are
global and the CR3 switch does not flush those mappings. But if theses
mappings are not in the TLB already, the above code will crash before it
can jump to the real-mode stub.
Extend the trampoline_pgd to contain all kernel mappings to prevent
these crashes and to make code which runs on this page-table more
robust.
