| 2021-03-11 | x86/paravirt: Have only one paravirt patch function | Juergen Gross | 1 | -11/+0 | |
| There is no need any longer to have different paravirt patch functions for native and Xen. Eliminate native_patch() and rename paravirt_patch_default() to paravirt_patch().

| 2021-03-11 | x86/paravirt: Switch functions with custom code to ALTERNATIVE | Juergen Gross | 1 | -88/+0 | |
| Instead of using paravirt patching for custom code sequences use ALTERNATIVE for the functions with custom code replacements. Instead of patching an ud2 instruction for unpopulated vector entries into the caller site, use a simple function just calling BUG() as a replacement. Simplify the register defines for assembler paravirt calling, as there isn't much usage left.

| 2021-02-10 | x86/pv: Rework arch_local_irq_restore() to not use popf | Juergen Gross | 1 | -3/+0 | |
| POPF is a rather expensive operation, so don't use it for restoring irq flags. Instead, test whether interrupts are enabled in the flags parameter and enable interrupts via STI in that case. This results in the restore_fl paravirt op to be no longer needed.

| 2021-02-10 | x86/xen: Drop USERGS_SYSRET64 paravirt call | Juergen Gross | 1 | -4/+0 | |
| USERGS_SYSRET64 is used to return from a syscall via SYSRET, but a Xen PV guest will nevertheless use the IRET hypercall, as there is no sysret PV hypercall defined. So instead of testing all the prerequisites for doing a sysret and then mangling the stack for Xen PV again for doing an iret just use the iret exit from the beginning. This can easily be done via an ALTERNATIVE like it is done for the sysenter compat case already. It should be noted that this drops the optimization in Xen for not restoring a few registers when returning to user mode, but it seems as if the saved instructions in the kernel more than compensate for this drop (a kernel build in a Xen PV guest was slightly faster with this patch applied). While at it remove the stale sysret32 remnants.

| 2021-02-10 | x86/pv: Switch SWAPGS to ALTERNATIVE | Juergen Gross | 1 | -3/+0 | |
| SWAPGS is used only for interrupts coming from user mode or for returning to user mode. So there is no reason to use the PARAVIRT framework, as it can easily be replaced by an ALTERNATIVE depending on X86_FEATURE_XENPV. There are several instances using the PV-aware SWAPGS macro in paths which are never executed in a Xen PV guest. Replace those with the plain swapgs instruction. For SWAPGS_UNSAFE_STACK the same applies.

| 2019-04-29 | x86/paravirt: Standardize 'insn_buff' variable names | Ingo Molnar | 1 | -21/+21 | |
| We currently have 6 (!) separate naming variants to name temporary instruction buffers that are used for code patching: - insnbuf - insnbuff - insn_buff - insn_buffer - ibuf - ibuffer These are used as local variables, percpu fields and function parameters. Standardize all the names to a single variant: 'insn_buff'.

| 2019-04-25 | x86/paravirt: Replace the paravirt patch asm magic | Thomas Gleixner | 1 | -61/+81 | |
| The magic macro DEF_NATIVE() in the paravirt patching code uses inline assembly to generate a data table for patching in the native instructions. While clever this is falling apart with LTO and even aside of LTO the construct is just working by chance according to GCC folks. Aside of that the tables are constant data and not some form of magic text. As these constructs are not subject to frequent changes it is not a maintenance issue to convert them to regular data tables which are initialized with hex bytes. Create a new set of macros and data structures to store the instruction sequences and convert the code over.
