Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] Apply RMP table fixups for kexec.

From: Ashish Kalra <[email protected]>

Handle cases where the RMP table placement in the BIOS is
not 2M aligned and then the kexec kernel could try to allocate
from within that chunk and that causes a fatal RMP fault.
Check if RMP table start & end physical range in e820_table
is not aligned to 2MB and in that case use e820__range_update()
to map this range to reserved.

The callback to apply these RMP table fixups needs to be called
after the e820 tables are setup/populated and before the e820 map
has been converted to the standard Linux memory resources and e820 map
is no longer used and modifying it has no effect.

v2:
- Remove overriding e820__memory_setup_default() to invoke
snp_rmptable_e820_fixup() to apply the RMP table fixups.
- This callback snp_rmptable_e820_fixup() is now invoked
after e820__memory_setup() and before e820__reserve_resources().
- Expose e820 API interfaces to update e820_table_kexec and
e820_table_firmware externally.
- snp_rmptable_e820_fixup() now calls these new external API
interfaces to update e820_table_kexec and e820_table_firmware.

Is this something that happens on existing systems currently so that it
needs to be fixed upstream?

Yah, no point in defining silly wrappers _kexec() and _firmware() if the
actual e820 tables are already exported in asm/e820/api.h

You need a single

e820__range_update_table(struct e820_table *t, ..)

helper and move all current and future users to it while leaving
e820__range_update() alone which works on the e820_table.

As a future cleanup, e820__range_update() should be changed to use the
new e820__range_update_table() helper and then perhaps all code should
be converted back to a new

e820__range_update()

which takes a table as a first argument.

But the cleanup can go in later, after the current issue has been
resolved.

Thx.

Why do you keep explaining in your commit messages what a patch does?

Do not talk about *what* the patch is doing in the commit message - that
should be obvious from the diff itself. Rather, concentrate on the *why*
it needs to be done.

Imagine one fine day you're doing git archeology, you find the place in
the code about which you want to find out why it was changed the way it
is now.

You do git annotate <filename> ... find the line, see the commit id and
you do:

git show <commit id>

You read the commit message and there's just gibberish and nothing's
explaining *why* that change was done. And you start scratching your
head, trying to figure out why. Because the damn commit message is worth
sh*t.

This commit message is not even trying to summarize what was figured out
in previous review in the thread here:

https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected]

Please restructure this commit message using all the info from that
thread and use this structure, for example:

1. Prepare the context for the explanation briefly.

2. Explain the problem at hand.

3. "It happens because of <...>"

4. "Fix it by doing X"

5. "(Potentially do Y)."

And some of those above are optional depending on the issue being
explained.

For more detailed info, see
Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst,
Section "2) Describe your changes".

Also, to the tone, from Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst:

"Describe your changes in imperative mood, e.g. "make xyzzy do frotz"
instead of "[This patch] makes xyzzy do frotz" or "[I] changed xyzzy
to do frotz", as if you are giving orders to the codebase to change
its behaviour."

We use CC_ATTR_HOST_SEV_SNP for host SNP support checks, including RMP
table viability.

Also, why isn't this called in snp_init()?

If there's a reason why (I think there is) put that reason as a comment
above it why this thing needs to be called here exactly.

IOW, point to the comment above that function's definition.

This comment talks about what this does and is kinda obvious but then
talks about e820__range_update() and not the other ones. Just put the
gist of what this is supposed to do and do not explain the code step by
step.

What is really missing here and what is not really trivial is why all
three e820 tables need updating.

Patch 2/2 - includes the following Fixes tag, do i need to include the
Fixes tag in the cover letter too ?

Fixes: c3b86e61b756 ("x86/cpufeatures: Enable/unmask SEV-SNP CPU feature")

Thanks,

This callback needs to be invoked as part of setup_arch() as it needs
e820 table to be setup in e820__memory_setup() before the callback is
invoked and snp_init() is called from sme_enable() in kernel/head_64.S
(startup_64), which is much before start_kernel() -> setup_arch() is
invoked.

I will add the comment here.

People slap Fixes tags on pretty much every patch nowadays. I'd prefer
it if you spell it out in the future what the problem is you're
encountering so that I can make a decision where to route the patches
through.

Thx.

So?

snp_init() still runs before e820__memory_setup(). So what's stopping
you?

As i have already explained above, snp_init() runs before
e820__memory_setup() so we can't invoke this callback in snp_init() as
e820 tables have still not been setup. Again to summarize, the e820
tables are setup in e820__memory_setup() which runs after snp_init().

Additionally, RMP table also get probed after snp_init(). So this
callback cannot be invoked in snp_init().

I have added this comment to v3 of this patch series which i posted
yesterday, so please look at those.

Thanks, Ashish
