2025-03-19x86/mm: Check return value from memblock_phys_alloc_range()Philip Redkin
At least with CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START=0x100000, if there is < 4 MiB of contiguous free memory available at this point, the kernel will crash and burn because memblock_phys_alloc_range() returns 0 on failure, which leads memblock_phys_free() to throw the first 4 MiB of physical memory to the wolves. At a minimum it should fail gracefully with a meaningful diagnostic, but in fact everything seems to work fine without the weird reserve allocation.

2025-03-17arch, mm: make releasing of memory to page allocator more explicitMike Rapoport (Microsoft)
The point where the memory is released from memblock to the buddy allocator is hidden inside arch-specific mem_init()s and the call to memblock_free_all() is needlessly duplicated in every artiste cure and after introduction of arch_mm_preinit() hook, mem_init() implementation on many architecture only contains the call to memblock_free_all(). Pull memblock_free_all() call into mm_core_init() and drop mem_init() on relevant architectures to make it more explicit where the free memory is released from memblock to the buddy allocator and to reduce code duplication in architecture specific code.

2025-03-17arch, mm: introduce arch_mm_preinitMike Rapoport (Microsoft)
Currently, implementation of mem_init() in every architecture consists of one or more of the following: * initializations that must run before page allocator is active, for instance swiotlb_init() * a call to memblock_free_all() to release all the memory to the buddy allocator * initializations that must run after page allocator is ready and there is no arch-specific hook other than mem_init() for that, like for example register_page_bootmem_info() in x86 and sparc64 or simple setting of mem_init_done = 1 in several architectures * a bunch of semi-related stuff that apparently had no better place to live, for example a ton of BUILD_BUG_ON()s in parisc. Introduce arch_mm_preinit() that will be the first thing called from mm_core_init(). On architectures that have initializations that must happen before the page allocator is ready, move those into arch_mm_preinit() along with the code that does not depend on ordering with page allocator setup. On several architectures this results in reduction of mem_init() to a single call to memblock_free_all() that allows its consolidation next.

2025-03-17arch, mm: streamline HIGHMEM freeingMike Rapoport (Microsoft)
All architectures that support HIGHMEM have their code that frees high memory pages to the buddy allocator while __free_memory_core() is limited to freeing only low memory. There is no actual reason for that. The memory map is completely ready by the time memblock_free_all() is called and high pages can be released to the buddy allocator along with low memory. Remove low memory limit from __free_memory_core() and drop per-architecture code that frees high memory pages.

2025-03-16mm/ioremap: pass pgprot_t to ioremap_prot() instead of unsigned longRyan Roberts
ioremap_prot() currently accepts pgprot_val parameter as an unsigned long, thus implicitly assuming that pgprot_val and pgprot_t could never be bigger than unsigned long. But this assumption soon will not be true on arm64 when using D128 pgtables. In 128 bit page table configuration, unsigned long is 64 bit, but pgprot_t is 128 bit. Passing platform abstracted pgprot_t argument is better as compared to size based data types. Let's change the parameter to directly pass pgprot_t like another similar helper generic_ioremap_prot(). Without this change in place, D128 configuration does not work on arm64 as the top 64 bits gets silently stripped when passing the protection value to this function.

2025-02-27x86/mm: Remove CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G supportArnd Bergmann
HIGHMEM64G support was added in linux-2.3.25 to support (then) high-end Pentium Pro and Pentium III Xeon servers with more than 4GB of addressing, NUMA and PCI-X slots started appearing. I have found no evidence of this ever being used in regular dual-socket servers or consumer devices, all the users seem obsolete these days, even by i386 standards: - Support for NUMA servers (NUMA-Q, IBM x440, unisys) was already removed ten years ago. - 4+ socket non-NUMA servers based on Intel 450GX/450NX, HP F8 and ServerWorks ServerSet/GrandChampion could theoretically still work with 8GB, but these were exceptionally rare even 20 years ago and would have usually been equipped with than the maximum amount of RAM. - Some SKUs of the Celeron D from 2004 had 64-bit mode fused off but could still work in a Socket 775 mainboard designed for the later Core 2 Duo and 8GB. Apparently most BIOSes at the time only allowed 64-bit CPUs. - The rare Xeon LV "Sossaman" came on a few motherboards with registered DDR2 memory support up to 16GB. - In the early days of x86-64 hardware, there was sometimes the need to run a 32-bit kernel to work around bugs in the hardware drivers, or in the syscall emulation for 32-bit userspace. This likely still works but there should never be a need for this any more. PAE mode is still required to get access to the 'NX' bit on Atom 'Pentium M' and 'Core Duo' CPUs.

2025-02-27x86/mm: Clear _PAGE_DIRTY for kernel mappings when we clear _PAGE_RWMatthew Wilcox (Oracle)
The bit pattern of _PAGE_DIRTY set and _PAGE_RW clear is used to mark shadow stacks. This is currently checked for in mk_pte() but not pfn_pte(). If we add the check to pfn_pte(), it catches vfree() calling set_direct_map_invalid_noflush() which calls __change_page_attr() which loads the old protection bits from the PTE, clears the specified bits and uses pfn_pte() to construct the new PTE. We should, therefore, for kernel mappings, clear the _PAGE_DIRTY bit consistently whenever we clear _PAGE_RW. I opted to do it in the callers in case we want to use __change_page_attr() to create shadow stacks inside the kernel at some point in the future.

Note that the 3 functions involved: __set_pages_np() kernel_map_pages_in_pgd() kernel_unmap_pages_in_pgd() Only ever manipulate non-swappable kernel mappings, so maintaining the DIRTY:1|RW:0 special pattern for shadow stacks and DIRTY:0 pattern for non-shadow-stack entries can be maintained consistently and doesn't result in the unintended clearing of a live dirty bit that could corrupt (destroy) dirty bit information for user mappings.

2025-02-26cxl: Add mce notifier to emit aliased address for extended linear cacheDave Jiang
Below is a setup with extended linear cache configuration with an example layout of memory region shown below presented as a single memory region consists of 256G memory where there's 128G of DRAM and 128G of CXL memory. The kernel sees a region of total 256G of system memory. 128G DRAM 128G CXL memory |-----------------------------------|-------------------------------------| Data resides in either DRAM or far memory (FM) with no replication. Hot data is swapped into DRAM by the hardware behind the scenes. When error is detected in one location, it is possible that error also resides in the aliased location. Therefore when a memory location that is flagged by MCE is part of the special region, the aliased memory location needs to be offlined as well. Add an mce notify callback to identify if the MCE address location is part of an extended linear cache region and handle accordingly. Added symbol export to set_mce_nospec() in x86 code in order to call set_mce_nospec() from the CXL MCE notify callback.

2025-02-22x86/kaslr: Reduce KASLR entropy on most x86 systemsBalbir Singh
When CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA=y (which is basically enabled on all large x86 distros), it maps the PFN's via a ZONE_DEVICE mapping using devm_memremap_pages(). The mapped virtual address range corresponds to the pci_resource_start() of the BAR address and size corresponding to the BAR length. When KASLR is enabled, the direct map range of the kernel is reduced to the size of physical memory plus additional padding. If the BAR address is beyond this limit, PCI peer to peer DMA mappings fail. Fix this by not shrinking the size of the direct map when CONFIG_PCI_P2PDMA=y. This reduces the total available entropy, but it's better than the current work around of having to disable KASLR completely.

2025-02-21x86/mm: Make MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE unconditionalRik van Riel
Currently x86 uses CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_TABLE_FREE when using paravirt, and not when running on bare metal. There is no real good reason to do things differently for each setup. Make them all the same. Currently get_user_pages_fast synchronizes against page table freeing in two different ways: - on bare metal, by blocking IRQs, which block TLB flush IPIs - on paravirt, with MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE This is done because some paravirt TLB flush implementations handle the TLB flush in the hypervisor, and will do the flush even when the target CPU has interrupts disabled. Always handle page table freeing with MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE. Using RCU synchronization between page table freeing and get_user_pages_fast() allows bare metal to also do TLB flushing while interrupts are disabled. Various places in the mm do still block IRQs or disable preemption as an implicit way to block RCU frees. That makes it safe to use INVLPGB on AMD CPUs.

2025-02-21x86/mm: Make memremap(MEMREMAP_WB) map memory as encrypted by defaultKirill A. Shutemov
Currently memremap(MEMREMAP_WB) can produce decrypted/shared mapping: memremap(MEMREMAP_WB) arch_memremap_wb() ioremap_cache() __ioremap_caller(.encrytped = false) In such cases, the IORES_MAP_ENCRYPTED flag on the memory will determine if the resulting mapping is encrypted or decrypted. Creating a decrypted mapping without explicit request from the caller is risky: - It can inadvertently expose the guest's data and compromise the guest. - Accessing private memory via shared/decrypted mapping on TDX will either trigger implicit conversion to shared or #VE (depending on VMM implementation). Implicit conversion is destructive: subsequent access to the same memory via private mapping will trigger a hard-to-debug #VE crash. The kernel already provides a way to request decrypted mapping explicitly via the MEMREMAP_DEC flag. Modify memremap(MEMREMAP_WB) to produce encrypted/private mapping by default unless MEMREMAP_DEC is specified or if the kernel runs on a machine with SME enabled. It fixes the crash due to #VE on kexec in TDX guests if CONFIG_EISA is enabled. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2025-02-05x86: Compare physical instead of virtual PGD addressesMaciej Wieczor-Retman
This is a preparatory patch for when pointers have tags in their upper address bits. But it's a harmless change on its own. The mm->pgd virtual address may be tagged because it came out of the allocator at some point. The __va(read_cr3_pa()) address will never be tagged (the tag bits are all 1's). A direct pointer value comparison would fail if one is tagged and the other is not. To fix this, just compare the physical addresses which are never affected by tagging.

2025-02-03x86/mm/pat: restore large ROX pages after fragmentationKirill A. Shutemov
Change of attributes of the pages may lead to fragmentation of direct mapping over time and performance degradation when these pages contain executable code. With current code it's one way road: kernel tries to avoid splitting large pages, but it doesn't restore them back even if page attributes got compatible again. Any change to the mapping may potentially allow to restore large page. Add a hook to cpa_flush() path that will check if the pages in the range that were just touched can be mapped at PMD level. If the collapse at the PMD level succeeded, also attempt to collapse PUD level. The collapse logic runs only when a set_memory_ method explicitly sets CPA_COLLAPSE flag, for now this is only enabled in set_memory_rox(). CPUs don't like[1] to have to have TLB entries of different size for the same memory, but looks like it's okay as long as these entries have matching attributes[2]. Therefore it's critical to flush TLB before any following changes to the mapping. Note that we already allow for multiple TLB entries of different sizes for the same memory now in split_large_page() path. It's not a new situation. set_memory_4k() provides a way to use 4k pages on purpose. Kernel must not remap such pages as large. Re-use one of software PTE bits to indicate such pages.

2025-01-25asm-generic: pgalloc: provide generic __pgd_{alloc,free}Kevin Brodsky
We already have a generic implementation of alloc/free up to P4D level, as well as pgd_free(). Let's finish the work and add a generic PGD-level alloc helper as well. Unlike at lower levels, almost all architectures need some specific magic at PGD level (typically initialising PGD entries), so introducing a generic pgd_alloc() isn't worth it. Instead we introduce two new helpers, __pgd_alloc() and __pgd_free(), and make use of them in the arch-specific pgd_alloc() and pgd_free() wherever possible. To accommodate as many arch as possible, __pgd_alloc() takes a page allocation order. Because pagetable_alloc() allocates zeroed pages, explicit zeroing in pgd_alloc() becomes redundant and we can get rid of it. Some trivial implementations of pgd_free() also become unnecessary once __pgd_alloc() is used; remove them. Another small improvement is consistent accounting of PGD pages by using GFP_PGTABLE_{USER,KERNEL} as appropriate. Not all PGD allocations can be handled by the generic helpers. In particular, multiple architectures allocate PGDs from a kmem_cache, and those PGDs may not be page-sized.

2025-01-25mm: pgtable: introduce pagetable_dtor()Qi Zheng
The pagetable_p*_dtor() are exactly the same except for the handling of ptlock. If we make ptlock_free() handle the case where ptdesc->ptl is NULL and remove VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() from pmd_ptlock_free(), we can unify pagetable_p*_dtor() into one function. Let's introduce pagetable_dtor() to do this. Later, pagetable_dtor() will be moved to tlb_remove_ptdesc(), so that ptlock and page table pages can be freed together (regardless of whether RCU is used). This prevents the use-after-free problem where the ptlock is freed immediately but the page table pages is freed later via RCU.

2025-01-13x86: mm: free page table pages by RCU instead of semi RCUQi Zheng
Now, if CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE is selected, the page table pages will be freed by semi RCU, that is: - batch table freeing: asynchronous free by RCU - single table freeing: IPI + synchronous free In this way, the page table can be lockless traversed by disabling IRQ in paths such as fast GUP. But this is not enough to free the empty PTE page table pages in paths other that munmap and exit_mmap path, because IPI cannot be synchronized with rcu_read_lock() in pte_offset_map{_lock}(). In preparation for supporting empty PTE page table pages reclaimation, let single table also be freed by RCU like batch table freeing. Then we can also use pte_offset_map() etc to prevent PTE page from being freed. Like pte_free_defer(), we can also safely use ptdesc->pt_rcu_head to free the page table pages: - The pt_rcu_head is unioned with pt_list and pmd_huge_pte. - For pt_list, it is used to manage the PGD page in x86. Fortunately tlb_remove_table() will not be used for free PGD pages, so it is safe to use pt_rcu_head. - For pmd_huge_pte, it is used for THPs, so it is safe. After applying this patch, if CONFIG_PT_RECLAIM is enabled, the function call of free_pte() is as follows: free_pte pte_free_tlb __pte_free_tlb ___pte_free_tlb paravirt_tlb_remove_table tlb_remove_table [!CONFIG_PARAVIRT, Xen PV, Hyper-V, KVM] [no-free-memory slowpath:] tlb_table_invalidate tlb_remove_table_one __tlb_remove_table_one [frees via RCU] [fastpath:] tlb_table_flush tlb_remove_table_free [frees via RCU] native_tlb_remove_table [CONFIG_PARAVIRT on native] tlb_remove_table [see above] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/0287d442a973150b0e1019cc406e6322d148277a.1733305182.git.zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com Signed-off-by: Qi Zheng <zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com> Cc: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Cc: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Cc: Lorenzo Stoakes <lorenzo.stoakes@oracle.com> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <willy@infradead.org> Cc: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de> Cc: Muchun Song <muchun.song@linux.dev> Cc: Peter Xu <peterx@redhat.com> Cc: Will Deacon <will@kernel.org> Cc: Zach O'Keefe <zokeefe@google.com> Cc: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>

2025-01-07x86/sev: Mark the TSC in a secure TSC guest as reliableNikunj A Dadhania
In SNP guest environment with Secure TSC enabled, unlike other clock sources (such as HPET, ACPI timer, APIC, etc), the RDTSC instruction is handled without causing a VM exit, resulting in minimal overhead and jitters. Even when the host CPU's TSC is tampered with, the Secure TSC enabled guest keeps on ticking forward. Hence, mark Secure TSC as the only reliable clock source, bypassing unstable calibration.

Add support for Secure TSC in SNP-enabled guests. Secure TSC allows guests to securely use RDTSC/RDTSCP instructions, ensuring that the parameters used cannot be altered by the hypervisor once the guest is launched. Secure TSC-enabled guests need to query TSC information from the AMD Security Processor. This communication channel is encrypted between the AMD Security Processor and the guest, with the hypervisor acting merely as a conduit to deliver the guest messages to the AMD Security Processor. Each message is protected with AEAD (AES-256 GCM).
