powerpc/ptdump: Dump PXX level info for kernel_page_tables

2025-11-18T07:05:53Z

This patch adds PGD/PUD/PMD/PTE level information while dumping kernel page tables. Before this patch it was hard to identify which entries belongs to which page table level e.g. ~ # dmesg |grep -i radix [0.000000] radix-mmu: Mapped 0x0000000000000000-0x0000000005400000 with 2.00 MiB pages (exec) [0.000000] radix-mmu: Mapped 0x0000000005400000-0x0000000040000000 with 2.00 MiB pages [0.000000] radix-mmu: Mapped 0x0000000040000000-0x0000000100000000 with 1.00 GiB pages [0.000000] radix-mmu: Initializing Radix MMU Before: ---[ Start of kernel VM ]--- 0xc000000000000000-0xc000000003ffffff XXX 64M r X pte valid present dirty accessed 0xc000000004000000-0xc00000003fffffff XXX 960M r w pte valid present dirty accessed 0xc000000040000000-0xc0000000ffffffff XXX 3G r w pte valid present dirty accessed ... ---[ vmemmap start ]--- 0xc00c000000000000-0xc00c0000003fffff XXX 4M r w pte valid present dirty accessed After: ---[ Start of kernel VM ]--- 0xc000000000000000-0xc000000003ffffff XXX 64M PMD r X pte valid present dirty accessed 0xc000000004000000-0xc00000003fffffff XXX 960M PMD r w pte valid present dirty accessed 0xc000000040000000-0xc0000000ffffffff XXX 3G PUD r w pte valid present dirty accessed ... ---[ vmemmap start ]--- 0xc00c000000000000-0xc00c0000003fffff XXX 4M PMD r w pte valid present dirty accessed Signed-off-by: Ritesh Harjani (IBM) Signed-off-by: Madhavan Srinivasan Link: https://patch.msgid.link/95defb675ee5607ef3923a1e6aeac39311b8fad4.1761834163.git.ritesh.list@gmail.com

mm/ptdump: split note_page() into level specific callbacks

2025-05-12T00:48:19Z

Patch series "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64", v2. Last argument passed down in note_page() is u64 assuming pxd_val() returned value (all page table levels) is 64 bit - which might not be the case going ahead when D128 page tables is enabled on arm64 platform. Besides pxd_val() is very platform specific and its type should not be assumed in generic MM. A similar problem exists for effective_prot(), although it is restricted to x86 platform. This series splits note_page() and effective_prot() into individual page table level specific callbacks which accepts corresponding pxd_t page table entry as an argument instead and later on all subscribing platforms could derive pxd_val() from the table entries as required and proceed as before. Define ptdesc_t type which describes the basic page table descriptor layout on arm64 platform. Subsequently all level specific pxxval_t descriptors are derived from ptdesc_t thus establishing a common original format, which can also be appropriate for page table entries, masks and protection values etc which are used at all page table levels. This patch (of 3): Last argument passed down in note_page() is u64 assuming pxd_val() returned value (all page table levels) is 64 bit - which might not be the case going ahead when D128 page tables is enabled on arm64 platform. Besides pxd_val() is very platform specific and its type should not be assumed in generic MM. Split note_page() into individual page table level specific callbacks which accepts corresponding pxd_t argument instead and then subscribing platforms just derive pxd_val() from the entries as required and proceed as earlier. Also add a note_page_flush() callback for flushing the last page table page that was being handled earlier via level = -1.

powerpc,s390: ptdump: define ptdump_check_wx() regardless of CONFIG_DEBUG_WX

2024-02-22T18:24:47Z

Following patch will use ptdump_check_wx() regardless of CONFIG_DEBUG_WX, so define it at all times on powerpc and s390 just like other architectures. Though keep the WARN_ON_ONCE() only when CONFIG_DEBUG_WX is set.

arm64, powerpc, riscv, s390, x86: ptdump: refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX

2024-02-22T18:24:47Z

All architectures using the core ptdump functionality also implement CONFIG_DEBUG_WX, and they all do it more or less the same way, with a function called debug_checkwx() that is called by mark_rodata_ro(), which is a substitute to ptdump_check_wx() when CONFIG_DEBUG_WX is set and a no-op otherwise. Refactor by centrally defining debug_checkwx() in linux/ptdump.h and call debug_checkwx() immediately after calling mark_rodata_ro() instead of calling it at the end of every mark_rodata_ro(). On x86_32, mark_rodata_ro() first checks __supported_pte_mask has _PAGE_NX before calling debug_checkwx(). Now the check is inside the callee ptdump_walk_pgd_level_checkwx(). On powerpc_64, mark_rodata_ro() bails out early before calling ptdump_check_wx() when the MMU doesn't have KERNEL_RO feature. The check is now also done in ptdump_check_wx() as it is called outside mark_rodata_ro().

powerpc: Book3S 64-bit outline-only KASAN support

2022-05-22T05:58:29Z

Implement a limited form of KASAN for Book3S 64-bit machines running under the Radix MMU, supporting only outline mode. - Enable the compiler instrumentation to check addresses and maintain the shadow region. (This is the guts of KASAN which we can easily reuse.) - Require kasan-vmalloc support to handle modules and anything else in vmalloc space. - KASAN needs to be able to validate all pointer accesses, but we can't instrument all kernel addresses - only linear map and vmalloc. On boot, set up a single page of read-only shadow that marks all iomap and vmemmap accesses as valid. - Document KASAN in powerpc docs. Background ---------- KASAN support on Book3S is a bit tricky to get right: - It would be good to support inline instrumentation so as to be able to catch stack issues that cannot be caught with outline mode. - Inline instrumentation requires a fixed offset. - Book3S runs code with translations off ("real mode") during boot, including a lot of generic device-tree parsing code which is used to determine MMU features. [ppc64 mm note: The kernel installs a linear mapping at effective address c000...-c008.... This is a one-to-one mapping with physical memory from 0000... onward. Because of how memory accesses work on powerpc 64-bit Book3S, a kernel pointer in the linear map accesses the same memory both with translations on (accessing as an 'effective address'), and with translations off (accessing as a 'real address'). This works in both guests and the hypervisor. For more details, see s5.7 of Book III of version 3 of the ISA, in particular the Storage Control Overview, s5.7.3, and s5.7.5 - noting that this KASAN implementation currently only supports Radix.] - Some code - most notably a lot of KVM code - also runs with translations off after boot. - Therefore any offset has to point to memory that is valid with translations on or off. One approach is just to give up on inline instrumentation. This way boot-time checks can be delayed until after the MMU is set is up, and we can just not instrument any code that runs with translations off after booting. Take this approach for now and require outline instrumentation. Previous attempts allowed inline instrumentation. However, they came with some unfortunate restrictions: only physically contiguous memory could be used and it had to be specified at compile time. Maybe we can do better in the future. [paulus@ozlabs.org - Rebased onto 5.17. Note that a kernel with CONFIG_KASAN=y will crash during boot on a machine using HPT translation because not all the entry points to the generic KASAN code are protected with a call to kasan_arch_is_ready().] Originally-by: Balbir Singh # ppc64 out-of-line radix version Signed-off-by: Daniel Axtens Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras [mpe: Update copyright year and comment formatting] Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/YoTE69OQwiG7z+Gu@cleo

powerpc/mm: Add __init attribute to eligible functions

2021-12-23T11:33:11Z

Some functions defined in 'arch/powerpc/mm' are deserving of an `__init` macro attribute. These functions are only called by other initialization functions and therefore should inherit the attribute. Also, change function declarations in header files to include `__init`.
