We should only assign intel_dma_ops to devices which will actually use the iommu and let the default fall back dma_direct_* functions handle all other devices. This won't change any behaviour but will just use the generic implementations for direct mapped devices rather than intel specific ones.

This patchset converts the intel iommu driver to the dma-iommu api. While converting the driver I exposed a bug in the intel i915 driver which causes a huge amount of artifacts on the screen of my laptop. You can see a picture of it here: https://github.com/pippy360/kernelPatches/blob/master/IMG_20191219_225922.jpg This issue is most likely in the i915 driver and is most likely caused by the

Hi, This set of patches contains initial kexec/kdump implementation for Xen v2 (previous version were posted to few people by mistake; sorry for that). Currently only dom0 is supported, however, almost all infrustructure required for domU support is ready. Jan Beulich suggested to merge Xen x86 assembler code with baremetal x86 code. This could simplify and reduce a bit size of kernel code.

Changes: - patch v2: - Adapt patch to work post KPTI and compiler changes - Redo all performance testing with latest configs and compilers - Simplify mov macro on PIE (MOVABS now) - Reduce GOT footprint - patch v1: - Simplify ftrace implementation. - Use gcc mstack-protector-guard-reg=%gs with PIE when possible. - rfc v3: - Use --emit-relocs instead of -pie to reduce

Changes: - patch v3: - Update on message to describe longer term PIE goal. - Minor change on ftrace if condition. - Changed code using xchgq. - patch v2: - Adapt patch to work post KPTI and compiler changes - Redo all performance testing with latest configs and compilers - Simplify mov macro on PIE (MOVABS now) - Reduce GOT footprint - patch v1: - Simplify ftrace

These patches make the changes necessary to build the kernel as Position Independent Executable (PIE) on x86_64. A PIE kernel can be relocated below the top 2G of the virtual address space. It allows to optionally extend the KASLR randomization range from 1G to 3G. Thanks a lot to Ard Biesheuvel & Kees Cook on their feedback on compiler changes, PIE support and KASLR in general. Thanks to

It also simplifies the relocation process. - Move the start the module section next to the kernel. Remove the need for -mcmodel=large on modules. Extends
