Subject: [PATCHv2 1/2] x86/mm: Fix guard hole handling
Date: Fri, 30 Nov 2018 23:23:27 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181130202328.65359-2-kirill.shutemov@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20181130202328.65359-1-kirill.shutemov@linux.intel.com>
There is a guard hole at the beginning of kernel address space, also
used by hypervisors. It occupies 16 PGD entries.
We do not state the reserved range directly, but calculate it relative
to other entities: direct mapping and user space ranges.
The calculation got broken by recent change in kernel memory layout: LDT
remap range is now mapped before direct mapping and makes the calculation
invalid.
The breakage leads to crash on Xen dom0 boot[1].
State the reserved range directly. It's part of kernel ABI (hypervisors
expect it to be stable) and must not depend on changes in the rest of
kernel memory layout.
