v3 cover Map larger kernels at early init

The early pagetable creation code assumes that a single pgd, pud, pmd and pte are sufficient to map the kernel text for MMU bringup. For 16KB granules this is, unfortunately, rarely the case. Some kernels may be too big even for a 64KB granule employing this scheme.

This patch series addresses the problem in three steps: 1) re-order the reserved_ttbr0 to allow its address computation to be independent of swapper_pg_dir size, 2) re-order the trampoline in a similar manner, and 3) re-write the early pgtable code to allow for multiple page table entries at each level.

Changes in v3: Series rebased on top of arm64/for-next/core branch. This necessitated changes to accommodate kpti (mainly moving the trampiline page table before the swapper, in patch #2); as well as 52-bit PA (some assembler rebasing).

Changes in v2: Ack added to patch #1, KASLR space calculation redone in patch #2.

PATCH v3 1/3 arm64: Re-order reserved_ttbr0 in linker script

Currently one resolves the location of the reserved_ttbr0 for PAN by taking a positive offset from swapper_pg_dir. In a future patch we wish to extend the swapper s.t. its size is determined at link time rather than comile time, rendering SWAPPER_DIR_SIZE unsuitable for such a low level calculation.

In this patch we re-arrange the order of the linker script s.t. instead one computes reserved_ttbr0 by subtracting RESERVED_TTBR0_SIZE from swapper_pg_dir.

Changed in V3: corrected comment, added Ard's reviewed-by, Rebased on top of kpti

Ard, Mark, I removed your tags because I had to add a change for asm-uaccess.h. Please let me know if it's okay for me to put your tags back?

Cheers,

PATCH v3 2/3 arm64: entry: Move the trampoline to be before PAN

In reply to Steve Capper

The trampline page tables are positioned after the early page tables in the kernel linker script.

As we are about to change the early page table logic to resolve the swapper size at link time as opposed to compile time, the SWAPPER_DIR_SIZE variable (currently used to locate the trampline) will be rendered unsuitable for low level assembler.

This patch solves this issue by moving the trampoline before the PAN page tables. The offset to the trampoline from ttbr1 can then be expressed by: PAGE_SIZE + RESERVED_TTBR0_SIZE, which is available to the entry assembler.

---

Patch added in V3 of the series to allow it to work with kpti.

PATCH v3 3/3 arm64: Extend early page table code to allow for larger kernels

In reply to Steve Capper

Currently the early assembler page table code assumes that precisely 1xpgd, 1xpud, 1xpmd are sufficient to represent the early kernel text mappings.

Unfortunately this is rarely the case when running with a 16KB granule, and we also run into limits with 4KB granule when building much larger kernels.

This patch re-writes the early page table logic to compute indices of mappings for each level of page table, and if multiple indices are required, the next-level page table is scaled up accordingly.

Also the required size of the swapper_pg_dir is computed at link time to cover the mapping [KIMAGE_ADDR + VOFFSET, _end]. When KASLR is enabled, an extra page is set aside for each level that may require extra entries at runtime.

Changed in V3:
Corrected KASLR computation
Rebased against arm64/for-next/core, particularly Kristina's 52-bit PA series.

PATCH v3 3/3 arm64: Extend early page table code to allow for larger kernels

Quoted 1 line · Ard Biesheuvel

Hi Steve,

Hi Ard,

Quoted 147 lines · Steve Capper
Quoted 131 lines

Currently the early assembler page table code assumes that precisely 1xpgd, 1xpud, 1xpmd are sufficient to represent the early kernel text mappings.

Unfortunately this is rarely the case when running with a 16KB granule, and we also run into limits with 4KB granule when building much larger kernels.

This patch re-writes the early page table logic to compute indices of mappings for each level of page table, and if multiple indices are required, the next-level page table is scaled up accordingly.

Also the required size of the swapper_pg_dir is computed at link time to cover the mapping [KIMAGE_ADDR + VOFFSET, _end]. When KASLR is enabled, an extra page is set aside for each level that may require extra entries at runtime.

---
Changed in V3:
Corrected KASLR computation
Rebased against arm64/for-next/core, particularly Kristina's 52-bit PA series.

Thanks, I must confess I was unaware of that technique and had to look it up; I will incorporate this into the patch.

If you make 'count' the number of /additional/ entries, you no longer have to add/sub #1 each time.

Agreed, I'll simplify this.

You can simplify this macro by using an immediate for \ptrs. Please see the diff below [whitespace mangling courtesy of Gmail]

Thanks, I like the simplification a lot. For 52-bit kernel VAs though, I will need a variable PTRS_PER_PGD at compile time.

For 52-bit kernel PAs one can just use the maximum number of ptrs available. For a 48-bit PA the leading address bits will always be zero, thus we will derive the same PGD indices from both 48 and 52 bit PTRS_PER_PGD.

For kernel VAs, because the leading address bits are one, we need to use a PTRS_PER_PGD corresponding to the VA size.

PATCH v3 3/3 arm64: Extend early page table code to allow for larger kernels

Quoted 152 lines · Steve Capper
Quoted 1 line · Ard Biesheuvel

Hi Steve,

Hi Ard,

Quoted 147 lines · Steve Capper
Quoted 131 lines

Currently the early assembler page table code assumes that precisely 1xpgd, 1xpud, 1xpmd are sufficient to represent the early kernel text mappings.

Unfortunately this is rarely the case when running with a 16KB granule, and we also run into limits with 4KB granule when building much larger kernels.

This patch re-writes the early page table logic to compute indices of mappings for each level of page table, and if multiple indices are required, the next-level page table is scaled up accordingly.

Also the required size of the swapper_pg_dir is computed at link time to cover the mapping [KIMAGE_ADDR + VOFFSET, _end]. When KASLR is enabled, an extra page is set aside for each level that may require extra entries at runtime.

---
Changed in V3:
Corrected KASLR computation
Rebased against arm64/for-next/core, particularly Kristina's 52-bit PA series.

(and update the branch instruction accordingly) so that we don't have to rely on the uniqueness of '9999'

Thanks, I must confess I was unaware of that technique and had to look it up; I will incorporate this into the patch.

I only discovered it recently myself, but it is much better than relying on pseudo-random numeric labels.

If you make 'count' the number of /additional/ entries, you no longer have to add/sub #1 each time.

Agreed, I'll simplify this.

You can simplify this macro by using an immediate for \ptrs. Please see the diff below [whitespace mangling courtesy of Gmail]

Thanks, I like the simplification a lot. For 52-bit kernel VAs though, I will need a variable PTRS_PER_PGD at compile time.

Quoted 7 lines

For 52-bit kernel PAs one can just use the maximum number of ptrs available. For a 48-bit PA the leading address bits will always be zero, thus we will derive the same PGD indices from both 48 and 52 bit PTRS_PER_PGD.

For kernel VAs, because the leading address bits are one, we need to use a PTRS_PER_PGD corresponding to the VA size.

OK, so you are saying you shouldn't mask off too many bits, right? In any case, I suppose you can just use the same trick as I used for .Lidmap_ptrs_per_pgd, i.e., use .set to assign the correct value and pass that into the macro.

PATCH v3 3/3 arm64: Extend early page table code to allow for larger kernels

Quoted 44 lines · Ard Biesheuvel
Quoted 43 lines · Steve Capper
Quoted 1 line · Ard Biesheuvel

Hi Steve,

Hi Ard,

Quoted 38 lines · Steve Capper
Quoted 36 lines

Currently the early assembler page table code assumes that precisely 1xpgd, 1xpud, 1xpmd are sufficient to represent the early kernel text mappings.

Unfortunately this is rarely the case when running with a 16KB granule, and we also run into limits with 4KB granule when building much larger kernels.

This patch re-writes the early page table logic to compute indices of mappings for each level of page table, and if multiple indices are required, the next-level page table is scaled up accordingly.

Also the required size of the swapper_pg_dir is computed at link time to cover the mapping [KIMAGE_ADDR + VOFFSET, _end]. When KASLR is enabled, an extra page is set aside for each level that may require extra entries at runtime.

---
Changed in V3:
Corrected KASLR computation
Rebased against arm64/for-next/core, particularly Kristina's 52-bit PA series.

Thanks, I like the simplification a lot. For 52-bit kernel VAs though, I will need a variable PTRS_PER_PGD at compile time.

For 52-bit kernel PAs one can just use the maximum number of ptrs available. For a 48-bit PA the leading address bits will always be zero, thus we will derive the same PGD indices from both 48 and 52 bit PTRS_PER_PGD.

Quoted 3 lines

For kernel VAs, because the leading address bits are one, we need to use a PTRS_PER_PGD corresponding to the VA size.

OK, so you are saying you shouldn't mask off too many bits, right? In any case, I suppose you can just use the same trick as I used for .Lidmap_ptrs_per_pgd, i.e., use .set to assign the correct value and pass that into the macro.

Yeah, that's right, one needs to mask off the correct number of bits.

If I've understood correctly, we choose which .set to use at compile time rather than runtime though?

The problem I have is the number of PGDs is only known precisely at boot time when one has a kernel that switches between 48/52 bit VAs. That's why I had the number of PGDs in a register.

PATCH v3 3/3 arm64: Extend early page table code to allow for larger kernels

Hi Steve,

Hi Ard,

Currently the early assembler page table code assumes that precisely 1xpgd, 1xpud, 1xpmd are sufficient to represent the early kernel text mappings.

Unfortunately this is rarely the case when running with a 16KB granule, and we also run into limits with 4KB granule when building much larger kernels.

This patch re-writes the early page table logic to compute indices of mappings for each level of page table, and if multiple indices are required, the next-level page table is scaled up accordingly.

Also the required size of the swapper_pg_dir is computed at link time to cover the mapping [KIMAGE_ADDR + VOFFSET, _end]. When KASLR is enabled, an extra page is set aside for each level that may require extra entries at runtime.

As this was pointed out, it seems that the common method do this in the kernel is actually

.Lsomename\@

which is required if your macro has more than one branch.. Alternatively, it seems some of the more recent code is using the LOCAL/.altmacro method which avoids hardcoding the local prefix. Either one fixes the nested macro's and wrong jump target problem.
