dd39ecf522 x86: EFI: Back efi_ioremap with init_memory_mapping instead of FIX_MAP
Impact: Fix boot failure on EFI system with large runtime memory range

Brian Maly reported that some EFI system with large runtime memory
range can not boot. Because the FIX_MAP used to map runtime memory
range is smaller than run time memory range.

This patch fixes this issue by re-implement efi_ioremap() with
init_memory_mapping().

6298e719cf x86: set_highmem_pages_init() cleanup, #2
Impact: cleanup

The zones are set up at this stage so there's a highmem zone
available even for the UMA case.

The only difference there is that for machines that have
CONFIG_HIGHMEM enabled but don't have any highmem available,
->zone_start_pfn is zero whereas highstart_pfn is non-zero).

The field is left zeroed because of the !size test in
free_area_init_core() but shouldn't be a problem because
add_highpages_with_active_regions() handles empty ranges just
fine.

ff0c087490 x86: fix DMI on EFI
Impact: reactivate DMI quirks on EFI hardware

DMI tables are loaded by EFI, so the dmi calls must happen after
efi_init() and not before.

Currently Apple hardware uses DMI to determine the framebuffer mappings
for efifb. Without DMI working you also have no video on MacBook Pro.

This patch resolves the DMI issue for EFI hardware (DMI is now properly
detected at boot), and additionally efifb now loads on Apple hardware
(i.e. video works).

5b1017404a x86-64: seccomp: fix 32/64 syscall hole
On x86-64, a 32-bit process (TIF_IA32) can switch to 64-bit mode with
ljmp, and then use the "syscall" instruction to make a 64-bit system
call.  A 64-bit process make a 32-bit system call with int $0x80.

In both these cases under CONFIG_SECCOMP=y, secure_computing() will use
the wrong system call number table.  The fix is simple: test TS_COMPAT
instead of TIF_IA32.  Here is an example exploit:

	/* test case for seccomp circumvention on x86-64

	   There are two failure modes: compile with -m64 or compile with -m32.

	   The -m64 case is the worst one, because it does "chmod 777 ." (could
	   be any chmod call).  The -m32 case demonstrates it was able to do
	   stat(), which can glean information but not harm anything directly.

	   A buggy kernel will let the test do something, print, and exit 1; a
	   fixed kernel will make it exit with SIGKILL before it does anything.

9976b39b50 xen: deal with virtually mapped percpu data
The virtually mapped percpu space causes us two problems:

 - for hypercalls which take an mfn, we need to do a full pagetable
   walk to convert the percpu va into an mfn, and

 - when a hypercall requires a page to be mapped RO via all its aliases,
   we need to make sure its RO in both the percpu mapping and in the
   linear mapping

This primarily affects the gdt and the vcpu info structure.

db949bba3c x86-32: use non-lazy io bitmap context switching
Impact: remove 32-bit optimization to prepare unification

x86-32 and -64 differ in the way they context-switch tasks
with io permission bitmaps.  x86-64 simply copies the next
tasks io bitmap into place (if any) on context switch.  x86-32
invalidates the bitmap on context switch, so that the next
IO instruction will fault; at that point it installs the
appropriate IO bitmap.

This makes context switching IO-bitmap-using tasks a bit more
less expensive, at the cost of making the next IO instruction
slower due to the extra fault.  This tradeoff only makes sense
if IO-bitmap-using processes are relatively common, but they
don't actually use IO instructions very often.

However, in a typical desktop system, the only process likely
to be using IO bitmaps is the X server, and nothing at all on
a server.  Therefore the lazy context switch doesn't really win
all that much, and its just a gratuitious difference from
64-bit code.

This patch removes the lazy context switch, with a view to
unifying this code in a later change.

2fcb1f1f38 x86_32: apic/summit_32, fix section mismatch
Remove __init section placement for some functions/data, so that
we don't get section mismatch warnings.

Also make inline function instead of empty setup_summit macro.

[v2]
One of them was not caught by
DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y
magic. Fix it.

c2b20cbd05 x86_32: apic/es7000_32, cpu_mask_to_apicid cleanup
Remove es7000_cpu_mask_to_apicid_cluster completely, because it's
almost the same as es7000_cpu_mask_to_apicid except 2 code paths.
One of them is about to be removed soon, the another should be
BAD_APICID (it's a fail path).

The _cluster one was not invoked on apic->cpu_mask_to_apicid_and
anyway, since there was no _cluster_and variant.

Also use newer cpumask functions.

f180053694 x86, mm: dont use non-temporal stores in pagecache accesses
Impact: standardize IO on cached ops

On modern CPUs it is almost always a bad idea to use non-temporal stores,
as the regression in this commit has shown it:

  30d697f: x86: fix performance regression in write() syscall

The kernel simply has no good information about whether using non-temporal
stores is a good idea or not - and trying to add heuristics only increases
complexity and inserts fragility.

The regression on cached write()s took very long to be found - over two
years. So dont take any chances and let the hardware decide how it makes
use of its caches.

The only exception is drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem.c: there were we are
absolutely sure that another entity (the GPU) will pick up the dirty
data immediately and that the CPU will not touch that data before the
GPU will.

Also, keep the _nocache() primitives to make it easier for people to
experiment with these details. There may be more clear-cut cases where
non-cached copies can be used, outside of filemap.c.

340430c572 x86 mmiotrace: fix race with release_kmmio_fault_page()
There was a theoretical possibility to a race between arming a page in
post_kmmio_handler() and disarming the page in
release_kmmio_fault_page():

cpu0                             cpu1
------------------------------------------------------------------
mmiotrace shutdown
enter release_kmmio_fault_page
                                 fault on the page
                                 disarm the page
disarm the page
                                 handle the MMIO access
                                 re-arm the page
put the page on release list
remove_kmmio_fault_pages()
                                 fault on the page
                                 page not known to mmiotrace
                                 fall back to do_page_fault()
                                 *KABOOM*

(This scenario also shows the double disarm case which is allowed.)

Fixed by acquiring kmmio_lock in post_kmmio_handler() and checking
if the page is being released from mmiotrace.

Upgrade some kmmio.c debug messages to warnings.
Allow secondary faults on probed pages to fall through, and only log
secondary faults that are not due to non-present pages.

Split set_page_presence() in kmmio.c into two more functions set_pmd_presence()
and set_pte_presence(). Purely code reorganization, no functional changes.
