The max_low_pfn value must be set before sparse_init() is called to
keep the early memblock allocations and frees balanced for kmemleak
initialization when sparsemem is enabled.
This commit accomplishes that by replacing the local variables min,
max_low, and max_high with the global limit variables min_low_pfn,
max_low_pfn, and max_pfn respectively in bootmem_init(). The global
variables are initialized directly by find_limits() and used in the
remainder of the function.

This is used when mmapping the PCI resource* files in sys. Because ARM
currently lacks an implementation of pgprot_device(), it falls back to
pgprot_uncached() (Strongly Ordered), but we should be able to use
Device memory instead.
Doing this speeds up large writes to the resource files by about 40% on
one of my systems. It also ensures that mmaps on these resources use
the same memory type as ioremap().

As of commit 7484c727b636a838 ("ARM: realview: delete the RealView board
files"), the ARM Timer and Watchdog Unit is instantiated from DT only.
Moreover, the driver is selected from ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM platforms only,
which implies OF, TIMER_OF, and COMMON_CLK.
Hence remove all unused legacy infrastructure from the driver.

Since commit ad67b74d2469d9b8 ("printk: hash addresses printed with
%p"), the virtual memory layout printed during boot up contains "ptrval"
instead of actual addresses:
Memory: 501296K/524288K available (6144K kernel code, 528K rwdata, 1944K rodata, 1024K init, 7584K bss, 22992K reserved, 0K cma-reserved)
Virtual kernel memory layout:
vector : 0xffff0000 - 0xffff1000 ( 4 kB)
fixmap : 0xffc00000 - 0xfff00000 (3072 kB)
vmalloc : 0xe0800000 - 0xff800000 ( 496 MB)
lowmem : 0xc0000000 - 0xe0000000 ( 512 MB)

.text : 0x(ptrval) - 0x(ptrval) (7136 kB)
.init : 0x(ptrval) - 0x(ptrval) (1024 kB)
.data : 0x(ptrval) - 0x(ptrval) ( 529 kB)
.bss : 0x(ptrval) - 0x(ptrval) (7585 kB)
Instead of changing the printing to "%px", and leaking virtual memory
layout information again, just remove the printing completely, cfr. e.g.
commits 071929dbdd865f77 ("arm64: Stop printing the virtual memory
layout") and 31833332f7987636 ("m68k/mm: Stop printing the virtual
memory layout").
All interesting information (actual section sizes) is already printed by
mem_init_print_info() just above anyway.

This option is not supported by lld:

This has been a no-op in binutils since 2004 (see commit dea514f51da1 in

the kernel is 2.20, which was released in 2009, nobody needs this flag

Currently, init_static_idmap() installs some page table entries to
cover the identity mapped part of the kernel image (which is only
about 160 bytes in size in a multi_v7_defconfig Thumb2 build), and
calls flush_cache_louis() to ensure that the updates are visible
to the page table walker on the same core.
When running under virtualization, flush_cache_louis() may take more
than 10 seconds to complete:
[ 0.108192] Setting up static identity map for 0x40300000 - 0x403000a0
[ 13.078127] rcu: Hierarchical SRCU implementation.
This is due to the fact that set/way ops are not virtualizable, and so
KVM may trap each one, resulting in a substantial delay.
Since only LPAE capable CPUs may execute under virtualization, and
considering that LPAE capable CPUs are guaranteed to have cache
coherent page table walkers (per the architecture), let's only
perform this cache maintenance on non-LPAE cores.

Commit 594cc251fdd0 ("make 'user_access_begin()' do 'access_ok()'")
broke both alpha and SH booting in qemu, as noticed by Guenter Roeck.
It turns out that the bug wasn't actually in that commit itself (which
would have been surprising: it was mostly a no-op), but in how the
addition of access_ok() to the strncpy_from_user() and strnlen_user()
functions now triggered the case where those functions would test the
access of the very last byte of the user address space.
The string functions actually did that user range test before too, but
they did it manually by just comparing against user_addr_max(). But
with user_access_begin() doing the check (using "access_ok()"), it now
exposed problems in the architecture implementations of that function.
For example, on alpha, the access_ok() helper macro looked like this:
#define __access_ok(addr, size) \
((get_fs().seg & (addr | size | (addr+size))) == 0)
and what it basically tests is of any of the high bits get set (the
USER_DS masking value is 0xfffffc0000000000).
And that's completely wrong for the "addr+size" check. Because it's
off-by-one for the case where we check to the very end of the user
address space, which is exactly what the strn*_user() functions do.
Why? Because "addr+size" will be exactly the size of the address space,
so trying to access the last byte of the user address space will fail
the __access_ok() check, even though it shouldn't. As a result, the
user string accessor functions failed consistently - because they
literally don't know how long the string is going to be, and the max
access is going to be that last byte of the user address space.
Side note: that alpha macro is buggy for another reason too - it re-uses
the arguments twice.
And SH has another version of almost the exact same bug:
#define __addr_ok(addr) \
((unsigned long __force)(addr) < current_thread_info()->addr_limit.seg)
so far so good: yes, a user address must be below the limit. But then:
#define __access_ok(addr, size) \
(__addr_ok((addr) + (size)))
is wrong with the exact same off-by-one case: the case when "addr+size"
is exactly _equal_ to the limit is actually perfectly fine (think "one
byte access at the last address of the user address space")
The SH version is actually seriously buggy in another way: it doesn't
actually check for overflow, even though it did copy the _comment_ that
talks about overflow.
So it turns out that both SH and alpha actually have completely buggy
implementations of access_ok(), but they happened to work in practice
(although the SH overflow one is a serious serious security bug, not
that anybody likely cares about SH security).
This fixes the problems by using a similar macro on both alpha and SH.
It isn't trying to be clever, the end address is based on this logic:
unsigned long __ao_end = __ao_a + __ao_b - !!__ao_b;
which basically says "add start and length, and then subtract one unless
the length was zero". We can't subtract one for a zero length, or we'd
just hit an underflow instead.
For a lot of access_ok() users the length is a constant, so this isn't
actually as expensive as it initially looks.

Currently, CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL just means "I _want_ to use jump label".
The jump label is controlled by HAVE_JUMP_LABEL, which is defined
like this:
#if defined(CC_HAVE_ASM_GOTO) && defined(CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL)
# define HAVE_JUMP_LABEL
#endif
We can improve this by testing 'asm goto' support in Kconfig, then
make JUMP_LABEL depend on CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO.
Ugly #ifdef HAVE_JUMP_LABEL will go away, and CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL will

This has been broken forever, and nobody ever really noticed because
it's purely a performance issue.
Long long ago, in commit 6175ddf06b61 ("x86: Clean up mem*io functions")
Brian Gerst simplified the memory copies to and from iomem, since on
x86, the instructions to access iomem are exactly the same as the
regular instructions.
That is technically true, and things worked, and nobody said anything.
Besides, back then the regular memcpy was pretty simple and worked fine.
Nobody noticed except for David Laight, that is. David has a testing a
TLP monitor he was writing for an FPGA, and has been occasionally
complaining about how memcpy_toio() writes things one byte at a time.
Which is completely unacceptable from a performance standpoint, even if
it happens to technically work.
The reason it's writing one byte at a time is because while it's
technically true that accesses to iomem are the same as accesses to
regular memory on x86, the _granularity_ (and ordering) of accesses
matter to iomem in ways that they don't matter to regular cached memory.
In particular, when ERMS is set, we default to using "rep movsb" for
larger memory copies. That is indeed perfectly fine for real memory,
since the whole point is that the CPU is going to do cacheline
optimizations and executes the memory copy efficiently for cached
memory.
With iomem? Not so much. With iomem, "rep movsb" will indeed work, but
it will copy things one byte at a time. Slowly and ponderously.
Now, originally, back in 2010 when commit 6175ddf06b61 was done, we
didn't use ERMS, and this was much less noticeable.
Our normal memcpy() was simpler in other ways too.
Because in fact, it's not just about using the string instructions. Our
memcpy() these days does things like "read and write overlapping values"
to handle the last bytes of the copy. Again, for normal memory,
overlapping accesses isn't an issue. For iomem? It can be.
So this re-introduces the specialized memcpy_toio(), memcpy_fromio() and
memset_io() functions. It doesn't particularly optimize them, but it
tries to at least not be horrid, or do overlapping accesses. In fact,
this uses the existing __inline_memcpy() function that we still had
lying around that uses our very traditional "rep movsl" loop followed by
movsw/movsb for the final bytes.
Somebody may decide to try to improve on it, but if we've gone almost a
decade with only one person really ever noticing and complaining, maybe
it's not worth worrying about further, once it's not _completely_ broken?

This actually enables the __put_user_goto() functionality in
unsafe_put_user().
For an example of the effect of this, this is the code generated for the
unsafe_put_user(signo, &infop->si_signo, Efault);
in the waitid() system call:
movl %ecx,(%rbx) # signo, MEM[(struct __large_struct *)_2]
It's just one single store instruction, along with generating an
exception table entry pointing to the Efault label case in case that
instruction faults.
Before, we would generate this:
xorl %edx, %edx
movl %ecx,(%rbx) # signo, MEM[(struct __large_struct *)_3]
testl %edx, %edx
jne .L309
with the exception table generated for that 'mov' instruction causing us
to jump to a stub that set %edx to -EFAULT and then jumped back to the
'testl' instruction.
So not only do we now get rid of the extra code in the normal sequence,
we also avoid unnecessarily keeping that extra error register live
across it all.

This is finally the actual reason for the odd error handling in the
"unsafe_get/put_user()" functions, introduced over three years ago.
Using a "jump to error label" interface is somewhat odd, but very
convenient as a programming interface, and more importantly, it fits
very well with simply making the target be the exception handler address
directly from the inline asm.
The reason it took over three years to actually do this? We need "asm
goto" support for it, which only became the default on x86 last year.
It's now been a year that we've forced asm goto support (see commit
e501ce957a78 "x86: Force asm-goto"), and so let's just do it here too.
[ Side note: this commit was originally done back in 2016. The above
commentary about timing is obviously about it only now getting merged
into my real upstream tree - Linus ]
Sadly, gcc still only supports "asm goto" with asms that do not have any
outputs, so we are limited to only the put_user case for this. Maybe in
several more years we can do the get_user case too.

The alternative coding patch for parisc in kernel 4.20 broke booting
machines with PA8500-PA8700 CPUs. The problem is, that for such machines
the parisc kernel automatically utilizes huge pages to access kernel
text code, but the set_kernel_text_rw() function, which is used shortly
before applying any alternative patches, didn't used the correctly
hugepage-aligned addresses to remap the kernel text read-writeable.

Android needs to mremap large regions of memory during memory management
related operations. The mremap system call can be really slow if THP is
not enabled. The bottleneck is move_page_tables, which is copying each
pte at a time, and can be really slow across a large map. Turning on
THP may not be a viable option, and is not for us. This patch speeds up
the performance for non-THP system by copying at the PMD level when
possible.
The speedup is an order of magnitude on x86 (~20x). On a 1GB mremap,
the mremap completion times drops from 3.4-3.6 milliseconds to 144-160
microseconds.
Before:
Total mremap time for 1GB data: 3521942 nanoseconds.
Total mremap time for 1GB data: 3449229 nanoseconds.
Total mremap time for 1GB data: 3488230 nanoseconds.
After:
Total mremap time for 1GB data: 150279 nanoseconds.
Total mremap time for 1GB data: 144665 nanoseconds.
Total mremap time for 1GB data: 158708 nanoseconds.
If THP is enabled the optimization is mostly skipped except in certain
situations.

Patch series "Add support for fast mremap".
This series speeds up the mremap(2) syscall by copying page tables at
the PMD level even for non-THP systems. There is concern that the extra
'address' argument that mremap passes to pte_alloc may do something
subtle architecture related in the future that may make the scheme not
work. Also we find that there is no point in passing the 'address' to
pte_alloc since its unused. This patch therefore removes this argument
tree-wide resulting in a nice negative diff as well. Also ensuring
along the way that the enabled architectures do not do anything funky
with the 'address' argument that goes unnoticed by the optimization.
Build and boot tested on x86-64. Build tested on arm64. The config
enablement patch for arm64 will be posted in the future after more
testing.
The changes were obtained by applying the following Coccinelle script.
(thanks Julia for answering all Coccinelle questions!).
Following fix ups were done manually:
* Removal of address argument from pte_fragment_alloc
* Removal of pte_alloc_one_fast definitions from m68k and microblaze.

When testing in userspace, UBSAN pointed out that shifting into the sign
bit is undefined behaviour. It doesn't really make sense to ask for the
highest set bit of a negative value, so just turn the argument type into
an unsigned int.
Some architectures (eg ppc) already had it declared as an unsigned int,
so I don't expect too many problems.

Originally, the rule used to be that you'd have to do access_ok()
separately, and then user_access_begin() before actually doing the
direct (optimized) user access.
But experience has shown that people then decide not to do access_ok()
at all, and instead rely on it being implied by other operations or
similar. Which makes it very hard to verify that the access has
actually been range-checked.
If you use the unsafe direct user accesses, hardware features (either
SMAP - Supervisor Mode Access Protection - on x86, or PAN - Privileged
Access Never - on ARM) do force you to use user_access_begin(). But
nothing really forces the range check.
By putting the range check into user_access_begin(), we actually force
people to do the right thing (tm), and the range check vill be visible
near the actual accesses. We have way too long a history of people
trying to avoid them.

These two architectures actually had an intentional use of the 'type'
argument to access_ok() just to avoid warnings.
I had actually noticed the powerpc one, but forgot to then fix it up.
And I missed the sparc32 case entirely.
This is hopefully all of it.
