commit e7d445ab26db833d6640d4c9a08bee176777cc82 upstream. When runtime support for converting between 4-level and 5-level pagetables was added to the kernel, the SME code that built pagetables was updated to use the pagetable functions, e.g. p4d_offset(), etc., in order to simplify the code. However, the use of the pagetable functions in early boot code requires the use of the USE_EARLY_PGTABLE_L5 #define in order to ensure that the proper definition of pgtable_l5_enabled() is used. Without the #define, pgtable_l5_enabled() is #defined as cpu_feature_enabled(X86_FEATURE_LA57). In early boot, the CPU features have not yet been discovered and populated, so pgtable_l5_enabled() will return false even when 5-level paging is enabled. This causes the SME code to always build 4-level pagetables to perform the in-place encryption. If 5-level paging is enabled, switching to the SME pagetables results in a page-fault that kills the boot. Adding the #define results in pgtable_l5_enabled() using the __pgtable_l5_enabled variable set in early boot and the SME code building pagetables for the proper paging level.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
