[PATCH 02/24] x86/mm/kaiser: Prepare the x86/entry assembly code for entry/exit CR3 switching

From: Ingo Molnar
Date: Mon Nov 27 2017 - 05:58:01 EST


From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This is largely code from Andy Lutomirski. I fixed a few bugs
in it, and added a few SWITCH_TO_* spots.

KAISER needs to switch to a different CR3 value when it enters
the kernel and switch back when it exits. This essentially
needs to be done before leaving assembly code.

This is extra challenging because the switching context is
tricky: the registers that can be clobbered can vary. It is also
hard to store things on the stack because there is an established
ABI (ptregs) or the stack is entirely unsafe to use.

This patch establishes a set of macros that allow changing to
the user and kernel CR3 values.

Interactions with SWAPGS: previous versions of the KAISER code
relied on having per-CPU scratch space to save/restore a register
that can be used for the CR3 MOV. The %GS register is used to
index into our per-CPU space, so SWAPGS *had* to be done before
the CR3 switch. That scratch space is gone now, but the semantic
that SWAPGS must be done before the CR3 MOV is retained. This is
good to keep because it is not that hard to do and it allows us
to do things like add per-CPU debugging information to help us
figure out what goes wrong sometimes.

What this does in the NMI code is worth pointing out. NMIs
can interrupt *any* context and they can also be nested with
NMIs interrupting other NMIs. The comments below
".Lnmi_from_kernel" explain the format of the stack during this
situation. Changing the format of this stack is not a fun
exercise: I tried. Instead of storing the old CR3 value on the
stack, this patch depend on the *regular* register save/restore
mechanism and then uses %r14 to keep CR3 during the NMI. It is
callee-saved and will not be clobbered by the C NMI handlers that
get called.
