4.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Sai Praneeth <sai.praneeth.prakhya@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 162ee5a8ab49be40d253f90e94aef712470a3a24 ] Linus reported the following boot warning: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at arch/x86/include/asm/tlbflush.h:134 load_new_mm_cr3+0x114/0x170 [...] Call Trace: switch_mm_irqs_off+0x267/0x590 switch_mm+0xe/0x20 efi_switch_mm+0x3e/0x50 efi_enter_virtual_mode+0x43f/0x4da start_kernel+0x3bf/0x458 secondary_startup_64+0xa5/0xb0 ... after merging: 03781e40890c: x86/efi: Use efi_switch_mm() rather than manually twiddling with %cr3 When the platform supports PCID and if CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=y is enabled, build_cr3_noflush() (called via switch_mm()) does a sanity check to see if X86_FEATURE_PCID is set. Presently, build_cr3_noflush() uses "this_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_PCID)" to perform the check but this_cpu_has() works only after SMP is initialized (i.e. per cpu cpu_info's should be populated) and this happens to be very late in the boot process (during rest_init()). As efi_runtime_services() are called during (early) kernel boot time and run time, modify build_cr3_noflush() to use boot_cpu_has() all the time. As suggested by Dave Hansen, this should be OK because all CPU's have same capabilities on x86. With this change the warning is fixed. ( Dave also suggested that we put a warning in this_cpu_has() if it's used early in the boot process. This is still work in progress as it affects MCE. ) Reported-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sai Praneeth Prakhya <sai.praneeth.prakhya@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Lee Chun-Yi <jlee@xxxxxxxx> Cc: Matt Fleming <matt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Michael S.
