      x86/xen: Return from panic notifier · c6875f3a
      Boris Ostrovsky authored
      
      
      Currently execution of panic() continues until Xen's panic notifier
      (xen_panic_event()) is called at which point we make a hypercall that
      never returns.
      
      This means that any notifier that is supposed to be called later as
      well as significant part of panic() code (such as pstore writes from
      kmsg_dump()) is never executed.
      
      There is no reason for xen_panic_event() to be this last point in
      execution since panic()'s emergency_restart() will call into
      xen_emergency_restart() from where we can perform our hypercall.
      
      Nevertheless, we will provide xen_legacy_crash boot option that will
      preserve original behavior during crash. This option could be used,
      for example, if running kernel dumper (which happens after panic
      notifiers) is undesirable.

      xen/xenbus: fix self-deadlock after killing user process · a8fabb38

      xen/pci: reserve MCFG areas earlier · a4098bc6
      Igor Druzhinin authored
      
      
      If MCFG area is not reserved in E820, Xen by default will defer its usage
      until Dom0 registers it explicitly after ACPI parser recognizes it as
      a reserved resource in DSDT. Having it reserved in E820 is not
      mandatory according to "PCI Firmware Specification, rev 3.2" (par. 4.1.2)
      and firmware is free to keep a hole in E820 in that place. Xen doesn't know
      what exactly is inside this hole since it lacks full ACPI view of the
      platform therefore it's potentially harmful to access MCFG region
      without additional checks as some machines are known to provide
      inconsistent information on the size of the region.
      
      Now xen_mcfg_late() runs after acpi_init() which is too late as some basic
      PCI enumeration starts exactly there as well. Trying to register a device
      prior to MCFG reservation causes multiple problems with PCIe extended
      capability initializations in Xen (e.g. SR-IOV VF BAR sizing). There are
      no convenient hooks for us to subscribe to so register MCFG areas earlier
      upon the first invocation of xen_add_device(). It should be safe to do once
      since all the boot time buses must have their MCFG areas in MCFG table
      already and we don't support PCI bus hot-plug.

       "A set of fixes for x86:
      
         - Fix the bogus detection of 32bit user mode for uretprobes which
           caused corruption of the user return address resulting in
           application crashes. In the uprobes handler in_ia32_syscall() is
           obviously always returning false on a 64bit kernel. Use
           user_64bit_mode() instead which works correctly.
      
         - Prevent large page splitting when ftrace flips RW/RO on the kernel
           text which caused iTLB performance issues. Ftrace wants to be
           converted to text_poke() which avoids the problem, but for now
           allow large page preservation in the static protections check when
           the change request spawns a full large page.
      
         - Prevent arch_dynirq_lower_bound() from returning 0 when the IOAPIC
           is configured via device tree. In the device tree case the GSI 1:1
           mapping is meaningless therefore the lower bound which protects the
           GSI range on ACPI machines is irrelevant. Return the lower bound
           which the core hands to the function instead of blindly returning 0
           which causes the core to allocate the invalid virtual interupt
           number 0 which in turn prevents all drivers from allocating and
           requesting an interrupt.
      
         - Remove the bogus initialization of LDR and DFR in the 32bit bigsmp
           APIC driver. That uses physical destination mode where LDR/DFR are
           ignored, but the initialization and the missing clear of LDR caused
           the APIC to be left in a inconsistent state on kexec/reboot.
      
         - Clear LDR when clearing the APIC registers so the APIC is in a well
           defined state.
      
         - Initialize variables proper in the find_trampoline_placement()
           code.
