Subject: [PATCH] x86/pat: fix pat_x_mtrr_type() for MTRR disabled case
Date: Tue, 10 Jan 2023 07:54:27 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230110065427.20767-1-jgross@suse.com> (raw)

Since commit 72cbc8f04fe2 ("x86/PAT: Have pat_enabled() properly
reflect state when running on Xen") PAT can be enabled without MTRR.

This has resulted in problems e.g. for a SEV-SNP guest running under
Hyper-V, when trying to establish a new mapping via memremap() with
WB caching mode, as pat_x_mtrr_type() will call mtrr_type_lookup(),
which in turn is returning MTRR_TYPE_INVALID due to MTRR being
disabled in this configuration. The result is a mapping with UC-
caching, leading to severe performance degradation.

Fix that by handling MTRR_TYPE_INVALID the same way as MTRR_TYPE_WRBACK
in pat_x_mtrr_type().

Fixes: 72cbc8f04fe2 ("x86/PAT: Have pat_enabled() properly reflect state when running on Xen")
