Summary: In current kernels, with PTI enabled, no pages are marked Global. This potentially increases TLB misses. But, the mechanism by which the Global bit is set and cleared is rather haphazard. This patch makes the process more explicit. In the end, it leaves us with Global entries in the page tables for the areas truly shared by userspace and kernel and increases TLB hit rates. The place this patch really shines in on systems without PCIDs. In this case, we are using an lseek microbenchmark[1] to see how a reasonably non-trivial syscall behaves. Higher is better: No Global pages (baseline): 6077741 lseeks/sec 88 Global Pages (this set): 7528609 lseeks/sec (+23.9%) On a modern Skylake desktop with PCIDs, the benefits are tangible, but not huge for a kernel compile (lower is better): No Global pages (baseline): 186.951 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.35% ) 28 Global pages (this set): 185.756 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.09% ) -1.195 seconds (-0.64%) I also re-checked everything using the lseek1 test[1]: No Global pages (baseline): 15783951 lseeks/sec 28 Global pages (this set): 16054688 lseeks/sec +270737 lseeks/sec (+1.71%) The effect is more visible, but still modest. Details: The kernel page tables are inherited from head_64.S which rudely marks them as _PAGE_GLOBAL. For PTI, we have been relying on the grace of $DEITY and some insane behavior in pageattr.c to clear _PAGE_GLOBAL. This patch tries to do better. First, stop filtering out "unsupported" bits from being cleared in the pageattr code. It's fine to filter out *setting* these bits but it is insane to keep us from clearing them. Then, *explicitly* go clear _PAGE_GLOBAL from the kernel identity map. Do not rely on pageattr to do it magically. After this patch, we can see that "GLB" shows up in each copy of the page tables, that we have the same number of global entries in each and that they are the *same* entries. /sys/kernel/debug/page_tables/current_kernel:11 /sys/kernel/debug/page_tables/current_user:11 /sys/kernel/debug/page_tables/kernel:11 9caae8ad6a1fb53aca2407ec037f612d current_kernel.GLB 9caae8ad6a1fb53aca2407ec037f612d current_user.GLB 9caae8ad6a1fb53aca2407ec037f612d kernel.GLB A quick visual audit also shows that all the entries make sense. 0xfffffe0000000000 is the cpu_entry_area and 0xffffffff81c00000 is the entry/exit text: 0xfffffe0000000000-0xfffffe0000002000 8K ro GLB NX pte 0xfffffe0000002000-0xfffffe0000003000 4K RW GLB NX pte 0xfffffe0000003000-0xfffffe0000006000 12K ro GLB NX pte 0xfffffe0000006000-0xfffffe0000007000 4K ro GLB x pte 0xfffffe0000007000-0xfffffe000000d000 24K RW GLB NX pte 0xfffffe000002d000-0xfffffe000002e000 4K ro GLB NX pte 0xfffffe000002e000-0xfffffe000002f000 4K RW GLB NX pte 0xfffffe000002f000-0xfffffe0000032000 12K ro GLB NX pte 0xfffffe0000032000-0xfffffe0000033000 4K ro GLB x pte 0xfffffe0000033000-0xfffffe0000039000 24K RW GLB NX pte 0xffffffff81c00000-0xffffffff81e00000 2M ro PSE GLB x pmd [1.] https://github.com/antonblanchard/will-it-scale/blob/master/tests/lseek1.cSigned-off-by: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Cc: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Cc: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com> Cc: Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com> Cc: Kees Cook <keescook@google.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Nadav Amit <namit@vmware.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: linux-mm@kvack.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180406205517.C80FBE05@viggo.jf.intel.comSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

The entry/exit text and cpu_entry_area are mapped into userspace and the kernel. But, they are not _PAGE_GLOBAL. This creates unnecessary TLB misses. Add the _PAGE_GLOBAL flag for these areas.

__ro_after_init data gets stuck in the .rodata section. That's normally fine because the kernel itself manages the R/W properties. But, if we run __change_page_attr() on an area which is __ro_after_init, the .rodata checks will trigger and force the area to be immediately read-only, even if it is early-ish in boot. This caused problems when trying to clear the _PAGE_GLOBAL bit for these area in the PTI code: it cleared _PAGE_GLOBAL like I asked, but also took it up on itself to clear _PAGE_RW. The kernel then oopses the next time it wrote to a __ro_after_init data structure. To fix this, add the kernel_set_to_readonly check, just like we have for kernel text, just a few lines below in this function.

I was mystified as to where the _PAGE_GLOBAL in the kernel page tables for kernel text came from. I audited all the places I could find, but I missed one: head_64.S. The page tables that we create in here live for a long time, and they also have _PAGE_GLOBAL set, despite whether the processor supports it or not. It's harmless, and we got *lucky* that the pageattr code accidentally clears it when we wipe it out of __supported_pte_mask and then later try to mark kernel text read-only. Comment some of these properties to make it easier to find and understand in the future.

The pageattr code has a mode where it can set or clear PTE bits in existing PTEs, so the page protections of the *new* PTEs come from one of two places: 1. The set/clear masks: cpa->mask_clr / cpa->mask_set 2. The existing PTE We filter ->mask_set/clr for supported PTE bits at entry to __change_page_attr() so we never need to filter them again. The only other place permissions can come from is an existing PTE and those already presumably have good bits. We do not need to filter them again.

A PTE is constructed from a physical address and a pgprotval_t. __PAGE_KERNEL, for instance, is a pgprot_t and must be converted into a pgprotval_t before it can be used to create a PTE. This is done implicitly within functions like pfn_pte() by massage_pgprot(). However, this makes it very challenging to set bits (and keep them set) if your bit is being filtered out by massage_pgprot(). This moves the bit filtering out of pfn_pte() and friends. For users of PAGE_KERNEL*, filtering will be done automatically inside those macros but for users of __PAGE_KERNEL*, they need to do their own filtering now. Note that we also just move pfn_pte/pmd/pud() over to check_pgprot() instead of massage_pgprot(). This way, we still *look* for unsupported bits and properly warn about them if we find them. This might happen if an unfiltered __PAGE_KERNEL* value was passed in, for instance. - printk format warning fix from: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> - boot crash fix from: Tom Lendacky <thomas.lendacky@amd.com> - crash bisected by: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Reported-and-fixed-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Fixed-by: Tom Lendacky <thomas.lendacky@amd.com> Bisected-by: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Cc: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com> Cc: Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com> Cc: Kees Cook <keescook@google.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Nadav Amit <namit@vmware.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: linux-mm@kvack.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180406205509.77E1D7F6@viggo.jf.intel.comSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

The "normal" kernel page table creation mechanisms using PAGE_KERNEL_* page protections will never set _PAGE_GLOBAL with PTI. The few places in the kernel that always want _PAGE_GLOBAL must avoid using PAGE_KERNEL_*. Document that we want it here and its use is not accidental.

The __PAGE_KERNEL_* page permissions are "raw". They contain bits that may or may not be supported on the current processor. They need to be filtered by a mask (currently __supported_pte_mask) to turn them into a value that we can actually set in a PTE. These __PAGE_KERNEL_* values all contain _PAGE_GLOBAL. But, with PTI, we want to be able to support _PAGE_GLOBAL (have the bit set in __supported_pte_mask) but not have it appear in any of these masks by default. This patch creates a new mask, __default_kernel_pte_mask, and applies it when creating all of the PAGE_KERNEL_* masks. This makes PAGE_KERNEL_* safe to use anywhere (they only contain supported bits). It also ensures that PAGE_KERNEL_* contains _PAGE_GLOBAL on PTI=n kernels but clears _PAGE_GLOBAL when PTI=y. We also make __default_kernel_pte_mask a non-GPL exported symbol because there are plenty of driver-available interfaces that take PAGE_KERNEL_* permissions.

When clearing _PAGE_PRESENT on a huge page, we need to be careful to also clear _PAGE_PSE, otherwise it might still get confused for a valid large page table entry. We do that near the spot where we *set* _PAGE_PSE. That's fine, but it's unnecessary. pgprot_large_2_4k() already did it. BTW, I also noticed that pgprot_large_2_4k() and pgprot_4k_2_large() are not symmetric. pgprot_large_2_4k() clears _PAGE_PSE (because it is aliased to _PAGE_PAT) but pgprot_4k_2_large() does not put _PAGE_PSE back. Bummer. Also, add some comments and change "promote" to "move". "Promote" seems an odd word to move when we are logically moving a bit to a lower bit position. Also add an extra line return to make it clear to which line the comment applies.

The pageattr code has a pattern repeated where it sets _PAGE_GLOBAL for present PTEs but clears it for non-present PTEs. The intention is to keep _PAGE_GLOBAL from getting confused with _PAGE_PROTNONE since _PAGE_GLOBAL is for present PTEs and _PAGE_PROTNONE is for non-present But, this pattern makes no sense. Effectively, it says, if you use the pageattr code, always set _PAGE_GLOBAL when _PAGE_PRESENT. canon_pgprot() will clear it if unsupported (because it masks the value with __supported_pte_mask) but we *always* set it. Even if canon_pgprot() did not filter _PAGE_GLOBAL, it would be OK. _PAGE_GLOBAL is ignored when CR4.PGE=0 by the hardware. This unconditional setting of _PAGE_GLOBAL is a problem when we have PTI and non-PTI and we want some areas to have _PAGE_GLOBAL and some not. This updated version of the code says: 1. Clear _PAGE_GLOBAL when !_PAGE_PRESENT 2. Never set _PAGE_GLOBAL implicitly 3. Allow _PAGE_GLOBAL to be in cpa.set_mask 4. Allow _PAGE_GLOBAL to be inherited from previous PTE Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Cc: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Cc: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com> Cc: Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com> Cc: Kees Cook <keescook@google.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Nadav Amit <namit@vmware.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: linux-mm@kvack.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180406205502.86E199DA@viggo.jf.intel.comSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar: "The main kernel side changes were: - Modernize the kprobe and uprobe creation/destruction tooling ABIs: The existing text based APIs (kprobe_events and uprobe_events in tracefs), are naive, limited ABIs in that they require user-space to clean up after themselves, which is both difficult and fragile if the tool is buggy or exits unexpectedly. In other words they are not really suited for modern, robust tooling. So introduce a modern, file descriptor based ABI that does not have these limitations: introduce the 'perf_kprobe' and 'perf_uprobe' PMUs and extend the perf_event_open() syscall to create events with a kprobe/uprobe attached to them. These [k,u]probe are associated with this file descriptor, so they are not available in tracefs. (Song Liu) - Intel Cannon Lake CPU support (Harry Pan) - Intel PT cleanups (Alexander Shishkin) - Improve the performance of pinned/flexible event groups by using RB trees (Alexey Budankov) - Add PERF_EVENT_IOC_MODIFY_ATTRIBUTES which allows the modification of hardware breakpoints, which new ABI variant massively speeds up existing tooling that uses hardware breakpoints to instrument (and debug) memory usage. (Milind Chabbi, Jiri Olsa) - Various Intel PEBS handling fixes and improvements, and other Intel PMU improvements (Kan Liang) - Various perf core improvements and optimizations (Peter Zijlstra) - ... misc cleanups, fixes and updates. There's over 200 tooling commits, here's an (imperfect) list of highlights: - 'perf annotate' improvements: * Recognize and handle jumps to other functions as calls, which improves the navigation along jumps and back. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) * Add the 'P' hotkey in TUI annotation to dump annotation output into a file, to ease e-mail reporting of annotation details. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) * Add an IPC/cycles column to the TUI (Jin Yao) * Improve s390 assembly annotation (Thomas Richter) * Refactor the output formatting logic to better separate it into interactive and non-interactive features and add the --stdio2 output variant to demonstrate this. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - 'perf script' improvements: * Add Python 3 support (Jaroslav Škarvada) * Add --show-round-event (Jiri Olsa) - 'perf c2c' improvements: * Add NUMA analysis support (Jiri Olsa) - 'perf trace' improvements: * Improve PowerPC support (Ravi Bangoria) - 'perf inject' improvements: * Integrate ARM CoreSight traces (Robert Walker) - 'perf stat' improvements: * Add the --interval-count option (yuzhoujian) * Add the --timeout option (yuzhoujian) - 'perf sched' improvements (Changbin Du) - Vendor events improvements : * Add IBM s390 vendor events (Thomas Richter) * Add and improve arm64 vendor events (John Garry, Ganapatrao Kulkarni) * Update POWER9 vendor events (Sukadev Bhattiprolu) - Intel PT tooling improvements (Adrian Hunter) - PMU handling improvements (Agustin Vega-Frias) - Record machine topology in perf.data (Jiri Olsa) - Various overwrite related cleanups (Kan Liang) - Add arm64 dwarf post unwind support (Kim Phillips, Jean Pihet) - ... and lots of other changes, cleanups and fixes, see the shortlog and Git history for details" * 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (262 commits) perf/x86/intel: Enable C-state residency events for Cannon Lake perf/x86/intel: Add Cannon Lake support for RAPL profiling perf/x86/pt, coresight: Clean up address filter structure perf vendor events s390: Add JSON files for IBM z14 perf vendor events s390: Add JSON files for IBM z13 perf vendor events s390: Add JSON files for IBM zEC12 zBC12 perf vendor events s390: Add JSON files for IBM z196 perf vendor events s390: Add JSON files for IBM z10EC z10BC perf mmap: Be consistent when checking for an unmaped ring buffer perf mmap: Fix accessing unmapped mmap in perf_mmap__read_done() perf build: Fix check-headers.sh opts assignment perf/x86: Update rdpmc_always_available static key to the modern API perf annotate: Use absolute addresses to calculate jump target offsets perf annotate: Defer searching for comma in raw line till it is needed perf annotate: Support jumping from one function to another perf annotate: Add "_local" to jump/offset validation routines perf python: Reference Py_None before returning it perf annotate: Mark jumps to outher functions with the call arrow perf annotate: Pass function descriptor to its instruction parsing routines perf annotate: No need to calculate notes->start twice ...

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar: "The main changes in the locking subsystem in this cycle were: - Add the Linux Kernel Memory Consistency Model (LKMM) subsystem, which is an an array of tools in tools/memory-model/ that formally describe the Linux memory coherency model (a.k.a. Documentation/memory-barriers.txt), and also produce 'litmus tests' in form of kernel code which can be directly executed and tested. Here's a high level background article about an earlier version of this work on LWN.net: https://lwn.net/Articles/718628/ The design principles: "There is reason to believe that Documentation/memory-barriers.txt could use some help, and a major purpose of this patch is to provide that help in the form of a design-time tool that can produce all valid executions of a small fragment of concurrent Linux-kernel code, which is called a "litmus test". This tool's functionality is roughly similar to a full state-space search. Please note that this is a design-time tool, not useful for regression testing. However, we hope that the underlying Linux-kernel memory model will be incorporated into other tools capable of analyzing large bodies of code for regression-testing purposes." [...] "A second tool is klitmus7, which converts litmus tests to loadable kernel modules for direct testing. As with herd7, the klitmus7 code is freely available from http://diy.inria.fr/sources/index.html (and via "git" at https://github.com/herd/herdtools7)" [...] Credits go to: "This patch was the result of a most excellent collaboration founded by Jade Alglave and also including Alan Stern, Andrea Parri, and Luc Maranget." ... and to the gents listed in the MAINTAINERS entry: LINUX KERNEL MEMORY CONSISTENCY MODEL (LKMM) M: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> M: Andrea Parri <parri.andrea@gmail.com> M: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> M: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> M: Boqun Feng <boqun.feng@gmail.com> M: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> M: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> M: Jade Alglave <j.alglave@ucl.ac.uk> M: Luc Maranget <luc.maranget@inria.fr> M: "Paul E.
