[patch 51/60] x86/mm: Allow flushing for future ASID switches

From: Thomas Gleixner
Date: Mon Dec 04 2017 - 11:52:46 EST


From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

If changing the page tables in such a way that an invalidation of all
contexts (aka. PCIDs / ASIDs) is required, they can be actively invalidated
by:

1. INVPCID for each PCID (works for single pages too).

2. Load CR3 with each PCID without the NOFLUSH bit set

3. Load CR3 with the NOFLUSH bit set for each and do INVLPG for each address.

But, none of these are really feasible since there are ~6 ASIDs (12 with
KERNEL_PAGE_TABLE_ISOLATION) at the time that invalidation is required.
Instead of actively invalidating them, invalidate the *current* context and
also mark the cpu_tlbstate _quickly_ to indicate future invalidation to be
required.

At the next context-switch, look for this indicator
('invalidate_other' being set) invalidate all of the
cpu_tlbstate.ctxs[] entries.

This ensures that any future context switches will do a full flush
of the TLB, picking up the previous changes.
