db3eb96f4e thp: add pmd mangling functions to x86
Add needed pmd mangling functions with symmetry with their pte
counterparts.  pmdp_splitting_flush() is the only new addition on the pmd_
methods and it's needed to serialize the VM against split_huge_page.  It
simply atomically sets the splitting bit in a similar way
pmdp_clear_flush_young atomically clears the accessed bit.
pmdp_splitting_flush() also has to flush the tlb to make it effective
against gup_fast, but it wouldn't really require to flush the tlb too.
Just the tlb flush is the simplest operation we can invoke to serialize
pmdp_splitting_flush() against gup_fast.

5f6e8da70a thp: special pmd_trans_* functions
These returns 0 at compile time when the config option is disabled, to
allow gcc to eliminate the transparent hugepage function calls at compile
time without additional #ifdefs (only the export of those functions have
to be visible to gcc but they won't be required at link time and
huge_memory.o can be not built at all).

_PAGE_BIT_UNUSED1 is never used for pmd, only on pte.

331127f799 thp: add pmd paravirt ops
Paravirt ops pmd_update/pmd_update_defer/pmd_set_at.  Not all might be
necessary (vmware needs pmd_update, Xen needs set_pmd_at, nobody needs
pmd_update_defer), but this is to keep full simmetry with pte paravirt
ops, which looks cleaner and simpler from a common code POV.

d0a21265df mm: unify module_alloc code for vmalloc
Four architectures (arm, mips, sparc, x86) use __vmalloc_area() for
module_init().  Much of the code is duplicated and can be generalized in a
globally accessible function, __vmalloc_node_range().

__vmalloc_node() now calls into __vmalloc_node_range() with a range of
[VMALLOC_START, VMALLOC_END) for functionally equivalent behavior.

Each architecture may then use __vmalloc_node_range() directly to remove
the duplication of code.

303148045a x86: support XZ-compressed kernel
This integrates the XZ decompression code to the x86 pre-boot code.

mkpiggy.c is updated to reserve about 32 KiB more buffer safety margin for
kernel decompression.  It is done unconditionally for all decompressors to
keep the code simpler.

The XZ decompressor needs around 30 KiB of heap, so the heap size is
increased to 32 KiB on both x86-32 and x86-64.

Documentation/x86/boot.txt is updated to list the XZ magic number.

With the x86 BCJ filter in XZ, XZ-compressed x86 kernel tends to be a few
percent smaller than the equivalent LZMA-compressed kernel.

351f8f8e64 kernel: clean up USE_GENERIC_SMP_HELPERS
For arch which needs USE_GENERIC_SMP_HELPERS, it has to select
USE_GENERIC_SMP_HELPERS, rather than leaving a choice to user, since they

Also, move on_each_cpu() to kernel/smp.c, it is strange to put it in
kernel/softirq.c.

For arch which doesn't use USE_GENERIC_SMP_HELPERS, e.g.  blackfin, only
on_each_cpu() is compiled.

Rather than just removing the message, make it show only once and reduce

d3c422bd33 KVM: MMU: Fix incorrect direct page write protection due to ro host page
If KVM sees a read-only host page, it will map it as read-only to prevent
breaking a COW.  However, if the page was part of a large guest page, KVM
incorrectly extends the write protection to the entire large page frame
instead of limiting it to the normal host page.

This results in the instantiation of a new shadow page with read-only access.

If this happens for a MOVS instruction that moves memory between two normal
pages, within a single large page frame, and mapped within the guest as a
large page, and if, in addition, the source operand is not writeable in the
host (perhaps due to KSM), then KVM will instantiate a read-only direct
shadow page, instantiate an spte for the source operand, then instantiate
a new read/write direct shadow page and instantiate an spte for the
destination operand.  Since these two sptes are in different shadow pages,
MOVS will never see them at the same time and the guest will not make
progress.

Fix by mapping the direct shadow page read/write, and only marking the
host page read-only.

This patch implements the xsetbv intercept to the AMD part
of KVM. This makes AVX usable in a save way for the guest on
AVX capable AMD hardware.

The patch is tested by using AVX in the guest and host in
parallel and checking for data corruption. I also used the
KVM xsave unit-tests and they all pass.

d4dbf47009 KVM: MMU: Make the way of accessing lpage_info more generic
Large page information has two elements but one of them, write_count, alone
is accessed by a helper function.

This patch replaces this helper function with more generic one which returns
newly named kvm_lpage_info structure and use it to access the other element
rmap_pde.

443381a828 KVM: VMX: add module parameter to avoid trapping HLT instructions (v5)
In certain use-cases, we want to allocate guests fixed time slices where idle
guest cycles leave the machine idling.  There are many approaches to achieve
this but the most direct is to simply avoid trapping the HLT instruction which
lets the guest directly execute the instruction putting the processor to sleep.

Introduce this as a module-level option for kvm-vmx.ko since if you do this
for one guest, you probably want to do it for all.

f40f6a459c KVM: SVM: Use svm_flush_tlb instead of force_new_asid
This patch replaces all calls to force_new_asid which are
intended to flush the guest-tlb by the more appropriate
function svm_flush_tlb. As a side-effect the force_new_asid
function is removed.

This function is unused and there is svm_flush_tlb which
does the same. So this function can be removed.

It's the speculative path if 'no_apf = 1' and we will specially handle this
speculative path in the later patch, so 'prefault' is better to fit the sense.
