Subject: [PATCH] x86/boot/64: Initialize 5-level paging variables earlier
Date: Sat, 10 Oct 2020 15:11:10 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201010191110.4060905-1-nivedita@alum.mit.edu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201008191623.2881677-1-nivedita@alum.mit.edu>

Commit
  ca0e22d4f011 ("x86/boot/compressed/64: Always switch to own page table")
started using a new set of pagetables even without KASLR.

After that commit, initialize_identity_maps() is called before the
5-level paging variables are setup in choose_random_location(), which
will not work if 5-level paging is actually enabled.

Fix this by moving the initialization of __pgtable_l5_enabled,
pgdir_shift and ptrs_per_p4d into cleanup_trampoline(), which is called
immediately after the finalization of whether the kernel is executing
with 4- or 5-level paging. This will be earlier than anything that might
require those variables, and keeps the 4- vs 5-level paging code all in
one place.
