Convert kvm_x86_ops.vcpu_run()'s "force_immediate_exit" boolean parameter
into an a generic bitmap so that similar "take action" information can be
passed to vendor code without creating a pile of boolean parameters.
This will allow dropping kvm_x86_ops.set_dr6() in favor of a new flag, and
will also allow for adding similar functionality for re-loading debugctl
in the active VMCS.
Opportunistically massage the TDX WARN and comment to prepare for adding
more run_flags, all of which are expected to be mutually exclusive with
TDX, i.e. should be WARNed on.
No functional change intended.

Add the new TDVMCALL status code TDVMCALL_STATUS_SUBFUNC_UNSUPPORTED and
return it for unimplemented TDVMCALL subfunctions.
Returning TDVMCALL_STATUS_INVALID_OPERAND when a subfunction is not
implemented is vague because TDX guests can't tell the error is due to
the subfunction is not supported or an invalid input of the subfunction.
New GHCI spec adds TDVMCALL_STATUS_SUBFUNC_UNSUPPORTED to avoid the
ambiguity. Use it instead of TDVMCALL_STATUS_INVALID_OPERAND.
Before the change, for common guest implementations, when a TDX guest
receives TDVMCALL_STATUS_INVALID_OPERAND, it has two cases:
1. Some operand is invalid. It could change the operand to another value
retry.
2. The subfunction is not supported.
For case 1, an invalid operand usually means the guest implementation bug.
Since the TDX guest can't tell which case is, the best practice for
handling TDVMCALL_STATUS_INVALID_OPERAND is stopping calling such leaf,
treating the failure as fatal if the TDVMCALL is essential or ignoring
it if the TDVMCALL is optional.
With this change, TDVMCALL_STATUS_SUBFUNC_UNSUPPORTED could be sent to
old TDX guest that do not know about it, but it is expected that the
guest will make the same action as TDVMCALL_STATUS_INVALID_OPERAND.
Currently, no known TDX guest checks TDVMCALL_STATUS_INVALID_OPERAND
specifically; for example Linux just checks for success.

Pull x86 fixes from Dave Hansen:
"This is a pretty scattered set of fixes. The majority of them are
further fixups around the recent ITS mitigations.
The rest don't really have a coherent story:
- Some flavors of Xen PV guests don't support large pages, but the
set_memory.c code assumes all CPUs support them.
Avoid problems with a quick CPU feature check.
- The TDX code has some wrappers to help retry calls to the TDX
module. They use function pointers to assembly functions and the
compiler usually generates direct CALLs. But some new compilers,
plus -Os turned them in to indirect CALLs and the assembly code was
not annotated for indirect calls.
Force inlining of the helper to fix it up.
- Last, a FRED issue showed up when single-stepping. It's fine when
using an external debugger, but was getting stuck returning from a
SIGTRAP handler otherwise.
Clear the FRED 'swevent' bit to ensure that forward progress is
made"

Two 'static inline' TDX helper functions (sc_retry() and
sc_retry_prerr()) take function pointer arguments which refer to
assembly functions. Normally, the compiler inlines the TDX helper,
realizes that the function pointer targets are completely static --
thus can be resolved at compile time -- and generates direct call
instructions.
But, other times (like when CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y), the
compiler declines to inline the helpers and will instead generate
indirect call instructions.
Indirect calls to assembly functions require special annotation (for
various Control Flow Integrity mechanisms). But TDX assembly
functions lack the special annotations and can only be called
directly.
Annotate both the helpers as '__always_inline' to prod the compiler
into maintaining the direct calls. There is no guarantee here, but
Peter has volunteered to report the compiler bug if this assumption
ever breaks[1].

Clear the software event flag in the augmented SS to prevent immediate
repeat of single step trap on return from SIGTRAP handler if the trap
flag (TF) is set without an external debugger attached.
Following is a typical single-stepping flow for a user process:
1) The user process is prepared for single-stepping by setting
RFLAGS.TF = 1.
2) When any instruction in user space completes, a #DB is triggered.
3) The kernel handles the #DB and returns to user space, invoking the
SIGTRAP handler with RFLAGS.TF = 0.
4) After the SIGTRAP handler finishes, the user process performs a
sigreturn syscall, restoring the original state, including
RFLAGS.TF = 1.
5) Goto step 2.
According to the FRED specification:
A) Bit 17 in the augmented SS is designated as the software event
flag, which is set to 1 for FRED event delivery of SYSCALL,
SYSENTER, or INT n.
B) If bit 17 of the augmented SS is 1 and ERETU would result in
RFLAGS.TF = 1, a single-step trap will be pending upon completion
of ERETU.
In step 4) above, the software event flag is set upon the sigreturn
syscall, and its corresponding ERETU would restore RFLAGS.TF = 1.
This combination causes a pending single-step trap upon completion of
ERETU. Therefore, another #DB is triggered before any user space
instruction is executed, which leads to an infinite loop in which the
SIGTRAP handler keeps being invoked on the same user space IP.

simplifies the act of creating a pte which addresses the first page in a
folio and reduces the amount of plumbing which architecture must
implement to provide this.
- The 8 patch series "Misc folio patches for 6.16" from Matthew Wilcox
is a shower of largely unrelated folio infrastructure changes which
clean things up and better prepare us for future work.
- The 3 patch series "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment
advisement" from Gregory Price adds early-init code to prevent x86 from
leaving physical memory unused when physical address regions are not
aligned to memory block size.
- The 2 patch series "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive
compaction" from Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly,
hard-coded (more sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation
of proactive compaction. In a simple test case, the reduction of a guest
VM's memory consumption was dramatic.
- The 8 patch series "Minor cleanups and improvements to swap freeing
code" from Kemeng Shi provides some code cleaups and a small efficiency
improvement to this part of our swap handling code.
- The 6 patch series "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API"
from Dmitry Levin adds the ability for a ptracer to modify syscalls
arguments. At this time we can alter only "system call information that
are used by strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number,
syscall arguments, and syscall return value.
This series should have been incorporated into mm.git's "non-MM"
branch, but I goofed.
- The 3 patch series "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report
guard regions" from Andrei Vagin extends the info returned by the
PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl against /proc/pid/pagemap. This permits CRIU to more
efficiently get at the info about guard regions.
- The 2 patch series "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()"
from Gavin Shan implements that fix. No runtime effect is expected
because validate_page_before_insert() happens to fix up this error.
- The 3 patch series "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode()
rewrite" from David Hildenbrand basically brings uprobe text poking into
the current decade. Remove a bunch of hand-rolled implementation in
favor of using more current facilities.
- The 3 patch series "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64"
from Anshuman Khandual provides enhancements and generalizations to the
pte dumping code. This might be needed when 128-bit Page Table
Descriptors are enabled for ARM.
- The 12 patch series "Always call constructor for kernel page tables"
from Kevin Brodsky "ensures that the ctor/dtor is always called for
kernel pgtables, as it already is for user pgtables". This permits the
addition of more functionality such as "insert hooks to protect page
tables". This change does result in various architectures performing
unnecesary work, but this is fixed up where it is anticipated to occur.
- The 9 patch series "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and
mmap" from Alice Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM
structures.
- The 3 patch series "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges"
from Lorenzo Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities
which we've been missing for 15 years.
- The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED
and MADV_FREE" from SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB
flushing. Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec,
we batch the flushing across all the iovec entries. The syscall's cost
was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to
load this particular operation.
- The 6 patch series "Track node vacancy to reduce worst case allocation
counts" from Sidhartha Kumar makes the maple tree smarter about its node
preallocation. stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit
percentages and the amount of unnecessarily preallocated memory was
dramaticelly reduced.
- The 3 patch series "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements" from
Baoquan He removes a few unnecessary things which Baoquan noted when
reading the code.
- The 3 patch series ""Enhance sysfs handling for memory hotplug in
weighted interleave" from Rakie Kim "enhances the weighted interleave
policy in the memory management subsystem by improving sysfs handling,
fixing memory leaks, and introducing dynamic sysfs updates for memory
hotplug support". Fixes things on error paths which we are unlikely to
hit.
- The 7 patch series "mm/damon: auto-tune DAMOS for NUMA setups
including tiered memory" from SeongJae Park introduces new DAMOS quota
goal metrics which eliminate the manual tuning which is required when
utilizing DAMON for memory tiering.
- The 5 patch series "mm/vmalloc.c: code cleanup and improvements" from
Baoquan He provides cleanups and small efficiency improvements which
Baoquan found via code inspection.
- The 2 patch series "vmscan: enforce mems_effective during demotion"
from Gregory Price "changes reclaim to respect cpuset.mems_effective
during demotion when possible". because "presently, reclaim explicitly
ignores cpuset.mems_effective when demoting, which may cause the cpuset
settings to violated." "This is useful for isolating workloads on a
multi-tenant system from certain classes of memory more consistently."
- The 2 patch series ""Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove
unnecessary folio pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and
efficiency gains in in the huge page splitting and migrating code.
- The 3 patch series "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang
creates a slab cache for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory
utilization.
- The 4 patch series "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and
lru_gen" from Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness="
argument for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen. This directs proactive
reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios rather than file-backed folios.
- The 17 patch series "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike
Rapoport is the first step on the path to permitting the kernel to
maintain existing VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based
kexec. At this time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved.
- The 7 patch series "mm: Introduce for_each_valid_pfn()" from David
Woodhouse provides and uses a smarter way of looping over a pfn range.
By skipping ranges of invalid pfns.
- The 2 patch series "sched/numa: Skip VMA scanning on memory pinned to
one NUMA node via cpuset.mems" from Libo Chen removes a lot of pointless
VMA scanning when a task is pinned a single NUMA mode. Dramatic
performance benefits were seen in some real world cases.
- The 2 patch series "JFS: Implement migrate_folio for
jfs_metapage_aops" from Shivank Garg addresses a warning which occurs
during memory compaction when using JFS.
- The 4 patch series "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication
logic to mm" from Lorenzo Stoakes moves some VMA code from kernel/fork.c
into the more appropriate mm/vma.c.
- The 6 patch series "mm, swap: clean up swap cache mapping helper" from
Kairui Song provides code consolidation and cleanups related to the
folio_index() function.
- The 2 patch series "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()" from Vishal
Moola does that.
- The 8 patch series "memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures" from
Waiman Long addresses some bogus failures which are being reported by
the test_memcontrol selftest.
- The 3 patch series "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare
hook" from Lorenzo Stoakes commences the deprecation of
file_operations.mmap() in favor of the new
file_operations.mmap_prepare(). The latter is more restrictive and
prevents drivers from messing with things in ways which, amongst other
problems, may defeat VMA merging.
- The 4 patch series "memcg: decouple memcg and objcg stocks"" from
Shakeel Butt decouples the per-cpu memcg charge cache from the objcg's
one. This is a step along the way to making memcg and objcg charging
NMI-safe, which is a BPF requirement.
- The 6 patch series "mm/damon: minor fixups and improvements for code,
tests, and documents" from SeongJae Park is "yet another batch of
miscellaneous DAMON changes. Fix and improve minor problems in code,
tests and documents."
- The 7 patch series "memcg: make memcg stats irq safe" from Shakeel
Butt converts memcg stats to be irq safe. Another step along the way to
making memcg charging and stats updates NMI-safe, a BPF requirement.
- The 4 patch series "Let unmap_hugepage_range() and several related
functions take folio instead of page" from Fan Ni provides folio
conversions in the hugetlb code.

* Add large stage-2 mapping (THP) support for non-protected guests when

* Enable nested virtualisation support on systems that support it,
though it is disabled by default.
* Add UBSAN support to the standalone EL2 object used in nVHE/hVHE and
protected modes.
* Large rework of the way KVM tracks architecture features and links
them with the effects of control bits. While this has no functional
impact, it ensures correctness of emulation (the data is automatically
extracted from the published JSON files), and helps dealing with the
evolution of the architecture.
* Significant changes to the way pKVM tracks ownership of pages,
avoiding page table walks by storing the state in the hypervisor's
vmemmap. This in turn enables the THP support described above.
* New selftest checking the pKVM ownership transition rules
* Fixes for FEAT_MTE_ASYNC being accidentally advertised to guests
even if the host didn't have it.
* Fixes for the address translation emulation, which happened to be
rather buggy in some specific contexts.
* Fixes for the PMU emulation in NV contexts, decoupling PMCR_EL0.N
from the number of counters exposed to a guest and addressing a
number of issues in the process.
* Add a new selftest for the SVE host state being corrupted by a
guest.
* Keep HCR_EL2.xMO set at all times for systems running with the

* VCPU reset related improvements

* Support VCPU reset from userspace using set_mpstate() ioctl
x86:
* Initial support for TDX in KVM. This finally makes it possible to use the
TDX module to run confidential guests on Intel processors. This is quite a
large series, including support for private page tables (managed by the
TDX module and mirrored in KVM for efficiency), forwarding some TDVMCALLs
to userspace, and handling several special VM exits from the TDX module.
This has been in the works for literally years and it's not really possible
to describe everything here, so I'll defer to the various merge commits
up to and including commit 7bcf7246c4 ("Merge branch 'kvm-tdx-finish-initial'

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"As far as x86 goes this pull request "only" includes TDX host support.
Quotes are appropriate because (at 6k lines and 100+ commits) it is
much bigger than the rest, which will come later this week and
consists mostly of bugfixes and selftests. s390 changes will also come
in the second batch.
ARM:
- Add large stage-2 mapping (THP) support for non-protected guests
when pKVM is enabled, clawing back some performance.
- Enable nested virtualisation support on systems that support it,
though it is disabled by default.
- Add UBSAN support to the standalone EL2 object used in nVHE/hVHE
and protected modes.
- Large rework of the way KVM tracks architecture features and links
them with the effects of control bits. While this has no functional
impact, it ensures correctness of emulation (the data is
automatically extracted from the published JSON files), and helps
dealing with the evolution of the architecture.
- Significant changes to the way pKVM tracks ownership of pages,
avoiding page table walks by storing the state in the hypervisor's
vmemmap. This in turn enables the THP support described above.
- New selftest checking the pKVM ownership transition rules
- Fixes for FEAT_MTE_ASYNC being accidentally advertised to guests
even if the host didn't have it.
- Fixes for the address translation emulation, which happened to be
rather buggy in some specific contexts.
- Fixes for the PMU emulation in NV contexts, decoupling PMCR_EL0.N
from the number of counters exposed to a guest and addressing a
number of issues in the process.
- Add a new selftest for the SVE host state being corrupted by a
guest.
- Keep HCR_EL2.xMO set at all times for systems running with the
kernel at EL2, ensuring that the window for interrupts is slightly
bigger, and avoiding a pretty bad erratum on the AmpereOne HW.
- Add workaround for AmpereOne's erratum AC04_CPU_23, which suffers
from a pretty bad case of TLB corruption unless accesses to HCR_EL2
are heavily synchronised.
- Add a per-VM, per-ITS debugfs entry to dump the state of the ITS

* tag 'x86-debug-2025-05-25' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
x86/tracing, x86/mm: Move page fault tracepoints to generic
x86/tracing, x86/mm: Remove redundant trace_pagefault_key
Boot code changes:
- A large series of changes to reorganize the x86 boot code into a better isolated
and easier to maintain base of PIC early startup code in arch/x86/boot/startup/,
by Ard Biesheuvel.
Motivation & background:
| Since commit
|
| c88d71508e ("x86/boot/64: Rewrite startup_64() in C")
|
| dated Jun 6 2017, we have been using C code on the boot path in a way
| that is not supported by the toolchain, i.e., to execute non-PIC C
| code from a mapping of memory that is different from the one provided
| to the linker. It should have been obvious at the time that this was a
| bad idea, given the need to sprinkle fixup_pointer() calls left and
| right to manipulate global variables (including non-pointer variables)
| without crashing.
|
| This C startup code has been expanding, and in particular, the SEV-SNP
| startup code has been expanding over the past couple of years, and
| grown many of these warts, where the C code needs to use special
| annotations or helpers to access global objects.

irq_fpu_usable() incorrectly returned true before the FPU is
initialized. The x86 CPU onlining code can call sha256() to checksum
AMD microcode images, before the FPU is initialized. Since sha256()
recently gained a kernel-mode FPU optimized code path, a crash occurred
in kernel_fpu_begin_mask() during hotplug CPU onlining.
(The crash did not occur during boot-time CPU onlining, since the
optimized sha256() code is not enabled until subsys_initcalls run.)
Fix this by making irq_fpu_usable() return false before fpu__init_cpu()
has run. To do this without adding any additional overhead to
irq_fpu_usable(), replace the existing per-CPU bool in_kernel_fpu with
kernel_fpu_allowed which tracks both initialization and usage rather
than just usage. The initial state is false; FPU initialization sets it
to true; kernel-mode FPU sections toggle it to false and then back to
true; and CPU offlining restores it to the initial state of false.

When starting APs, confidential guests and paravisor guests
need to know the CPU number, and the pattern of using the linear
search has emerged in several places. With N processors that leads
to the O(N^2) time complexity.
Provide the CPU number in the AP wake up callback so that one can
get the CPU number in constant time.

To start an application processor in SNP-isolated guest, a hypercall
is used that takes a virtual processor index. The hv_snp_boot_ap()
function uses that START_VP hypercall but passes as VP index to it
what it receives as a wakeup_secondary_cpu_64 callback: the APIC ID.
As those two aren't generally interchangeable, that may lead to hung
APs if the VP index and the APIC ID don't match up.
Update the parameter names to avoid confusion as to what the parameter
is. Use the APIC ID to the VP index conversion to provide the correct
input to the hypercall.

Virtual machines can exploit bus locks to degrade the performance of
the system. Bus locks can be caused by Non-WB(Write back) and
misaligned locked RMW (Read-modify-Write) instructions and require
systemwide synchronization among all processors which can result into
significant performance penalties.
To address this issue, the Bus Lock Threshold feature is introduced to
provide ability to hypervisor to restrict guests' capability of
initiating mulitple buslocks, thereby preventing system slowdowns.
Support for the buslock threshold is indicated via CPUID function
0x8000000A_EDX[29].
On the processors that support the Bus Lock Threshold feature, the
VMCB provides a Bus Lock Threshold enable bit and an unsigned 16-bit
Bus Lock threshold count.
VMCB intercept bit
VMCB Offset Bits Function
14h 5 Intercept bus lock operations
Bus lock threshold count
VMCB Offset Bits Function
120h 15:0 Bus lock counter
When a VMRUN instruction is executed, the bus lock threshold count is
loaded into an internal count register. Before the processor executes
a bus lock in the guest, it checks the value of this register:
- If the value is greater than '0', the processor successfully
executes the bus lock and decrements the count.
- If the value is '0', the bus lock is not executed, and a #VMEXIT to
the VMM is taken.
The bus lock threshold #VMEXIT is reported to the VMM with the VMEXIT
code A5h, SVM_EXIT_BUS_LOCK.

Misbehaving guests can cause bus locks to degrade the performance of
the system. The Bus Lock Threshold feature can be used to address this
issue by providing capability to the hypervisor to limit guest's
ability to generate bus lock, thereby preventing system slowdown due
to performance penalities.
When the Bus Lock Threshold feature is enabled, the processor checks
the bus lock threshold count before executing the buslock and decides
whether to trigger bus lock exit or not.
The value of the bus lock threshold count '0' generates bus lock
exits, and if the value is greater than '0', the bus lock is executed
successfully and the bus lock threshold count is decremented.
Presence of the Bus Lock threshold feature is indicated via CPUID
function 0x8000000A_EDX[29].

The resctrl pseudo-lock feature allows an architecture to allocate data
into particular cache portions, which are then treated as reserved to
avoid that data ever being evicted. Setting this up is deeply architecture
specific as it involves disabling prefetchers etc. It is not possible
to support this kind of feature on arm64. Risc-V is assumed to be the
same.
The prototypes for the architecture code were added to x86's asm/resctrl.h,
with other architectures able to provide stubs for their architecture. This
forces other architectures to provide identical stubs.
Move the prototypes and stubs to linux/resctrl.h, and switch between them
using the existing Kconfig symbol.

resctrl_sched_in() loads the architecture specific CPU MSRs with the
CLOSID and RMID values. This function was named before resctrl was
split to have architecture specific code, and generic filesystem code.
This function is obviously architecture specific, but does not begin
with 'resctrl_arch_', making it the odd one out in the functions an
architecture needs to support to enable resctrl.

kexec handover (KHO) creates a metadata that the kernels pass between each
other during kexec. This metadata is stored in memory and kexec image
contains a (physical) pointer to that memory.
In addition, KHO keeps "scratch regions" available for kexec: physically
contiguous memory regions that are guaranteed to not have any memory that
KHO would preserve. The new kernel bootstraps itself using the scratch
regions and sets all handed over memory as in use. When subsystems that
support KHO initialize, they introspect the KHO metadata, restore
preserved memory regions, and retrieve their state stored in the preserved
memory.
Enlighten x86 kexec-file and boot path about the KHO metadata and make
sure it gets passed along to the next kernel.

Pull x86 ITS mitigation from Dave Hansen:
"Mitigate Indirect Target Selection (ITS) issue.
I'd describe this one as a good old CPU bug where the behavior is
_obviously_ wrong, but since it just results in bad predictions it
wasn't wrong enough to notice. Well, the researchers noticed and also
realized that thus bug undermined a bunch of existing indirect branch
mitigations.
Thus the unusually wide impact on this one. Details:
ITS is a bug in some Intel CPUs that affects indirect branches
including RETs in the first half of a cacheline. Due to ITS such
branches may get wrongly predicted to a target of (direct or indirect)
branch that is located in the second half of a cacheline. Researchers
at VUSec found this behavior and reported to Intel.
Affected processors:
- Cascade Lake, Cooper Lake, Whiskey Lake V, Coffee Lake R, Comet
Lake, Ice Lake, Tiger Lake and Rocket Lake.
Scope of impact:
- Guest/host isolation:
When eIBRS is used for guest/host isolation, the indirect branches
in the VMM may still be predicted with targets corresponding to
direct branches in the guest.
- Intra-mode using cBPF:
cBPF can be used to poison the branch history to exploit ITS.
Realigning the indirect branches and RETs mitigates this attack
vector.
- User/kernel:
With eIBRS enabled user/kernel isolation is *not* impacted by ITS.
- Indirect Branch Prediction Barrier (IBPB):
Due to this bug indirect branches may be predicted with targets
corresponding to direct branches which were executed prior to IBPB.
This will be fixed in the microcode.
Mitigation:
As indirect branches in the first half of cacheline are affected, the
mitigation is to replace those indirect branches with a call to thunk that
is aligned to the second half of the cacheline.
RETs that take prediction from RSB are not affected, but they may be
affected by RSB-underflow condition. So, RETs in the first half of
cacheline are also patched to a return thunk that executes the RET aligned
to second half of cacheline"

The GHCB_MSR_VMPL_REQ_LEVEL macro lacked parentheses around the bitmask
expression, causing the shift operation to bind too early. As a result,
when requesting VMPL1 (e.g., GHCB_MSR_VMPL_REQ_LEVEL(1)), incorrect
values such as 0x000000016 were generated instead of the intended
0x100000016 (the requested VMPL level is specified in GHCBData[39:32]).
Fix the precedence issue by grouping the masked value before applying
the shift.

FineIBT-paranoid was using the retpoline bytes for the paranoid check,
disabling retpolines, because all parts that have IBT also have eIBRS
and thus don't need no stinking retpolines.
Except... ITS needs the retpolines for indirect calls must not be in
the first half of a cacheline :-/
So what was the paranoid call sequence:
<fineibt_paranoid_start>:
0: 41 ba 78 56 34 12 mov $0x12345678, %r10d
6: 45 3b 53 f7 cmp -0x9(%r11), %r10d

e: 75 fd jne d <fineibt_paranoid_start+0xd>
10: 41 ff d3 call *%r11
13: 90 nop
Now becomes:
<fineibt_paranoid_start>:
0: 41 ba 78 56 34 12 mov $0x12345678, %r10d
6: 45 3b 53 f7 cmp -0x9(%r11), %r10d
a: 4d 8d 5b f0 lea -0x10(%r11), %r11
e: 2e e8 XX XX XX XX cs call __x86_indirect_paranoid_thunk_r11
Where the paranoid_thunk looks like:
1d: <ea> (bad)
__x86_indirect_paranoid_thunk_r11:
1e: 75 fd jne 1d
__x86_indirect_its_thunk_r11:

ITS mitigation moves the unsafe indirect branches to a safe thunk. This
could degrade the prediction accuracy as the source address of indirect
branches becomes same for different execution paths.
To improve the predictions, and hence the performance, assign a separate
thunk for each indirect callsite. This is also a defense-in-depth measure
to avoid indirect branches aliasing with each other.
As an example, 5000 dynamic thunks would utilize around 16 bits of the
address space, thereby gaining entropy. For a BTB that uses
32 bits for indexing, dynamic thunks could provide better prediction
accuracy over fixed thunks.
Have ITS thunks be variable sized and use EXECMEM_MODULE_TEXT such that
they are both more flexible (got to extend them later) and live in 2M TLBs,
just like kernel code, avoiding undue TLB pressure.

Ice Lake generation CPUs are not affected by guest/host isolation part of
ITS. If a user is only concerned about KVM guests, they can now choose a
new cmdline option "vmexit" that will not deploy the ITS mitigation when
CPU is not affected by guest/host isolation. This saves the performance
overhead of ITS mitigation on Ice Lake gen CPUs.
When "vmexit" option selected, if the CPU is affected by ITS guest/host

Due to ITS, indirect branches in the lower half of a cacheline may be
vulnerable to branch target injection attack.
Introduce ITS-safe thunks to patch indirect branches in the lower half of
cacheline with the thunk. Also thunk any eBPF generated indirect branches
in emit_indirect_jump().
Below category of indirect branches are not mitigated:
- Indirect branches in the .init section are not mitigated because they are
discarded after boot.
- Indirect branches that are explicitly marked retpoline-safe.
Note that retpoline also mitigates the indirect branches against ITS. This
is because the retpoline sequence fills an RSB entry before RET, and it
does not suffer from RSB-underflow part of the ITS.

In commit 2e044911be ("x86/traps: Decode 0xEA instructions as #UD")
FineIBT starts using 0xEA as an invalid instruction like UD2. But
insn decoder always returns the length of "0xea" instruction as 7
because it does not check the (i64) superscript.
The x86 instruction decoder should also decode 0xEA on x86-64 as
a one-byte invalid instruction by decoding the "(i64)" superscript tag.
This stops decoding instruction which has (i64) but does not have (o64)
superscript in 64-bit mode at opcode and skips other fields.
With this change, insn_decoder_test says 0xea is 1 byte length if
x86-64 (-y option means 64-bit):
$ printf "0:\tea\t\n" | insn_decoder_test -y -v
insn_decoder_test: success: Decoded and checked 1 instructions

When granting userspace or a KVM guest access to an xfeature, preserve the
entity's existing supervisor and software-defined permissions as tracked
by __state_perm, i.e. use __state_perm to track *all* permissions even
though all supported supervisor xfeatures are granted to all FPUs and
FPU_GUEST_PERM_LOCKED disallows changing permissions.
Effectively clobbering supervisor permissions results in inconsistent
behavior, as xstate_get_group_perm() will report supervisor features for
process that do NOT request access to dynamic user xfeatures, whereas any
and all supervisor features will be absent from the set of permissions for
any process that is granted access to one or more dynamic xfeatures (which
right now means AMX).
The inconsistency isn't problematic because fpu_xstate_prctl() already
strips out everything except user xfeatures:
case ARCH_GET_XCOMP_PERM:
/*
* Lockless snapshot as it can also change right after the
* dropping the lock.
*/
permitted = xstate_get_host_group_perm();
permitted &= XFEATURE_MASK_USER_SUPPORTED;
return put_user(permitted, uptr);
case ARCH_GET_XCOMP_GUEST_PERM:
permitted = xstate_get_guest_group_perm();
permitted &= XFEATURE_MASK_USER_SUPPORTED;
return put_user(permitted, uptr);
and similarly KVM doesn't apply the __state_perm to supervisor states
(kvm_get_filtered_xcr0() incorporates xstate_get_guest_group_perm()):
case 0xd: {
u64 permitted_xcr0 = kvm_get_filtered_xcr0();
u64 permitted_xss = kvm_caps.supported_xss;
But if KVM in particular were to ever change, dropping supervisor
permissions would result in subtle bugs in KVM's reporting of supported
CPUID settings. And the above behavior also means that having supervisor
xfeatures in __state_perm is correctly handled by all users.
Dropping supervisor permissions also creates another landmine for KVM. If
more dynamic user xfeatures are ever added, requesting access to multiple
xfeatures in separate ARCH_REQ_XCOMP_GUEST_PERM calls will result in the
second invocation of __xstate_request_perm() computing the wrong ksize, as
as the mask passed to xstate_calculate_size() would not contain *any*
supervisor features.
Commit 781c64bfcb ("x86/fpu/xstate: Handle supervisor states in XSTATE
permissions") fudged around the size issue for userspace FPUs, but for
reasons unknown skipped guest FPUs. Lack of a fix for KVM "works" only
because KVM doesn't yet support virtualizing features that have supervisor
xfeatures, i.e. as of today, KVM guest FPUs will never need the relevant
xfeatures.
Simply extending the hack-a-fix for guests would temporarily solve the
ksize issue, but wouldn't address the inconsistency issue and would leave
another lurking pitfall for KVM. KVM support for virtualizing CET will
likely add CET_KERNEL as a guest-only xfeature, i.e. CET_KERNEL will not
be set in xfeatures_mask_supervisor() and would again be dropped when
granting access to dynamic xfeatures.
Note, the existing clobbering behavior is rather subtle. The @permitted
parameter to __xstate_request_perm() comes from:
permitted = xstate_get_group_perm(guest);
which is either fpu->guest_perm.__state_perm or fpu->perm.__state_perm,
where __state_perm is initialized to:
fpu->perm.__state_perm = fpu_kernel_cfg.default_features;
and copied to the guest side of things:
/* Same defaults for guests */
fpu->guest_perm = fpu->perm;
fpu_kernel_cfg.default_features contains everything except the dynamic
xfeatures, i.e. everything except XFEATURE_MASK_XTILE_DATA:
fpu_kernel_cfg.default_features = fpu_kernel_cfg.max_features;
fpu_kernel_cfg.default_features &= ~XFEATURE_MASK_USER_DYNAMIC;
When __xstate_request_perm() restricts the local "mask" variable to
compute the user state size:
mask &= XFEATURE_MASK_USER_SUPPORTED;
usize = xstate_calculate_size(mask, false);
it subtly overwrites the target __state_perm with "mask" containing only
user xfeatures:
perm = guest ? &fpu->guest_perm : &fpu->perm;

Multiple testers reported the following new warning:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at arch/x86/mm/tlb.c:795
Which corresponds to:
if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_DEBUG_VM) && WARN_ON_ONCE(prev != &init_mm &&
!cpumask_test_cpu(cpu, mm_cpumask(next))))
cpumask_set_cpu(cpu, mm_cpumask(next));
So the problem is that unuse_temporary_mm() explicitly clears
that bit; and it has to, because otherwise the flush_tlb_mm_range() in
__text_poke() will try sending IPIs, which are not at all needed.
See also:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241113095550.GBZzR3pg-RhJKPDazS@fat_crate.local/
Notably, the whole {,un}use_temporary_mm() thing requires preemption to
be disabled across it with the express purpose of keeping all TLB
nonsense CPU local, such that invalidations can also stay local etc.
However, as a side-effect, we violate this above WARN(), which sorta
makes sense for the normal case, but very much doesn't make sense here.
Change unuse_temporary_mm() to mark the mm_struct such that a further
exception (beyond init_mm) can be grafted, to keep the warning for all
the other cases.

The following register contains bits that indicate the cause for the
previous reset.
PMx000000C0 (FCH::PM::S5_RESET_STATUS)
This is useful for debug. The reasons for reset are broken into 6 high level
categories. Decode it by category and print during boot.
Specifics within a category are split off into debugging documentation.
The register is accessed indirectly through a "PM" port in the FCH. Use
MMIO access in order to avoid restrictions with legacy port access.
Use a late_initcall() to ensure that MMIO has been set up before trying to
access the register.
This register was introduced with AMD Family 17h, so avoid access on older
families. There is no CPUID feature bit for this register.

Borislav Petkov reported the following boot crash on x86-32,
with CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY=y:
| usercopy: Kernel memory overwrite attempt detected to SLUB object 'task_struct' (offset 2112, size 160)!
| ...
| kernel BUG at mm/usercopy.c:102!
So the useroffset and usersize arguments are what control the allowed
window of copying in/out of the "task_struct" kmem cache:
/* create a slab on which task_structs can be allocated */
task_struct_whitelist(&useroffset, &usersize);
task_struct_cachep = kmem_cache_create_usercopy("task_struct",
arch_task_struct_size, align,
SLAB_PANIC|SLAB_ACCOUNT,
useroffset, usersize, NULL);
task_struct_whitelist() positions this window based on the location of
the thread_struct within task_struct, and gets the arch-specific details
via arch_thread_struct_whitelist(offset, size):
static void __init task_struct_whitelist(unsigned long *offset, unsigned long *size)
{
/* Fetch thread_struct whitelist for the architecture. */
arch_thread_struct_whitelist(offset, size);
/*
* Handle zero-sized whitelist or empty thread_struct, otherwise
* adjust offset to position of thread_struct in task_struct.
*/
if (unlikely(*size == 0))
*offset = 0;
else
*offset += offsetof(struct task_struct, thread);
}
Commit cb7ca40a38 ("x86/fpu: Make task_struct::thread constant size")
removed the logic for the window, leaving:
static inline void
arch_thread_struct_whitelist(unsigned long *offset, unsigned long *size)
{
*offset = 0;
*size = 0;
}
So now there is no window that usercopy hardening will allow to be copied
in/out of task_struct.
But as reported above, there *is* a copy in copy_uabi_to_xstate(). (It
seems there are several, actually.)
int copy_sigframe_from_user_to_xstate(struct task_struct *tsk,
const void __user *ubuf)
{
return copy_uabi_to_xstate(x86_task_fpu(tsk)->fpstate, NULL, ubuf, &tsk->thread.pkru);
}
This appears to be writing into x86_task_fpu(tsk)->fpstate. With or
without CONFIG_X86_DEBUG_FPU, this resolves to:
((struct fpu *)((void *)(task) + sizeof(*(task))))
i.e. the memory "after task_struct" is cast to "struct fpu", and the
uses the "fpstate" pointer. How that pointer gets set looks to be
variable, but I think the one we care about here is:
fpu->fpstate = &fpu->__fpstate;
And struct fpu::__fpstate says:
struct fpstate __fpstate;
/*
* WARNING: '__fpstate' is dynamically-sized. Do not put
* anything after it here.
*/
So we're still dealing with a dynamically sized thing, even if it's not
within the literal struct task_struct -- it's still in the kmem cache,
though.
Looking at the kmem cache size, it has allocated "arch_task_struct_size"
bytes, which is calculated in fpu__init_task_struct_size():
int task_size = sizeof(struct task_struct);
task_size += sizeof(struct fpu);
/*
* Subtract off the static size of the register state.
* It potentially has a bunch of padding.
*/
task_size -= sizeof(union fpregs_state);
/*
* Add back the dynamically-calculated register state
* size.
*/
task_size += fpu_kernel_cfg.default_size;
/*
* We dynamically size 'struct fpu', so we require that
* 'state' be at the end of 'it:
*/
CHECK_MEMBER_AT_END_OF(struct fpu, __fpstate);
arch_task_struct_size = task_size;
So, this is still copying out of the kmem cache for task_struct, and the
window seems unchanged (still fpu regs). This is what the window was
before:
void fpu_thread_struct_whitelist(unsigned long *offset, unsigned long *size)
{
*offset = offsetof(struct thread_struct, fpu.__fpstate.regs);
*size = fpu_kernel_cfg.default_size;
}
And the same commit I mentioned above removed it.
I think the misunderstanding is here:
| The fpu_thread_struct_whitelist() quirk to hardened usercopy can be removed,
| now that the FPU structure is not embedded in the task struct anymore, which
| reduces text footprint a bit.
Yes, FPU is no longer in task_struct, but it IS in the kmem cache named
"task_struct", since the fpstate is still being allocated there.
Partially revert the earlier mentioned commit, along with a
recalculation of the fpstate regs location.

Consolidate the whole logic which determines whether the microcode loader
should be enabled or not into a single function and call it everywhere.
Well, almost everywhere - not in mk_early_pgtbl_32() because there the kernel
is running without paging enabled and checking dis_ucode_ldr et al would
require physical addresses and uglification of the code.
But since this is 32-bit, the easier thing to do is to simply map the initrd
unconditionally especially since that mapping is getting removed later anyway
by zap_early_initrd_mapping() and avoid the uglification.
In doing so, address the issue of old 486er machines without CPUID
support, not booting current kernels.

Merge mainline to pick up bcachefs poly1305 patch 4bf4b5046d
("bcachefs: use library APIs for ChaCha20 and Poly1305"). This
is a prerequisite for removing the poly1305 shash algorithm.
Most of the SEV support code used to reside in a single C source file
that was included in two places: the core kernel, and the decompressor.
The code that is actually shared with the decompressor was moved into a
separate, shared source file under startup/, on the basis that the
decompressor also executes from the early 1:1 mapping of memory.
However, while the elaborate #VC handling and instruction decoding that
it involves is also performed by the decompressor, it does not actually
occur in the core kernel at early boot, and therefore, does not need to
be part of the confined early startup code.
So split off the #VC handling code and move it back into arch/x86/coco
where it came from, into another C source file that is included from
both the decompressor and the core kernel.
Code movement only - no functional change intended.

Move early_setup_gdt() out of the startup code that is callable from the
1:1 mapping - this is not needed, and instead, it is better to expose
the helper that does reside in __head directly.
This reduces the amount of code that needs special checks for 1:1
execution suitability. In particular, it avoids dealing with the GHCB
page (and its physical address) in startup code, which runs from the
1:1 mapping, making physical to virtual translations ambiguous.

If CONFIG_X86_DEBUG_FPU=Y, arch_exit_to_user_mode_prepare() calls
arch_exit_work() even if ti_work == 0. There only reason is that we
want to call fpregs_assert_state_consistent() if TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD
is not set.
This looks confusing. arch_exit_to_user_mode_prepare() can just call
fpregs_assert_state_consistent() unconditionally, it depends on
CONFIG_X86_DEBUG_FPU and checks TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD itself.

Now that switch_fpu_finish() doesn't load the FPU state, it makes more
sense to fold it into switch_fpu_prepare() renamed to switch_fpu(), and
more importantly, use the "prev_p" task as a target for TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD.
It doesn't make any sense to delay set_tsk_thread_flag(TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD)
until "prev_p" is scheduled again.
There is no worry about the very first context switch, fpu_clone() must
always set TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD.
Also, shift the test_tsk_thread_flag(TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD) from the callers
to switch_fpu().
Note that the "PF_KTHREAD | PF_USER_WORKER" check can be removed but
this deserves a separate patch which can change more functions, say,
kernel_fpu_begin_mask().

This change makes the function return an error code instead of the

Consequently, their callers can check the results in the same way.
While at it, convert leftover MSR data type "unsigned int" to u32.

An MSR value is represented as a 64-bit unsigned integer, with existing
MSR instructions storing it in EDX:EAX as two 32-bit segments.
The new immediate form MSR instructions, however, utilize a 64-bit
general-purpose register to store the MSR value. To unify the usage of
all MSR instructions, let the default MSR access APIs accept an MSR
value as a single 64-bit argument instead of two 32-bit segments.
The dual 32-bit APIs are still available as convenient wrappers over the
APIs that handle an MSR value as a single 64-bit argument.
The following illustrates the updated derivation of the MSR write APIs:
__wrmsrq(u32 msr, u64 val)
/ \
/ \
native_wrmsrq(msr, val) native_wrmsr(msr, low, high)
|
|
native_write_msr(msr, val)
/ \
/ \
wrmsrq(msr, val) wrmsr(msr, low, high)
When CONFIG_PARAVIRT is enabled, wrmsrq() and wrmsr() are defined on top
of paravirt_write_msr():
paravirt_write_msr(u32 msr, u64 val)
/ \
/ \
wrmsrq(msr, val) wrmsr(msr, low, high)
paravirt_write_msr() invokes cpu.write_msr(msr, val), an indirect layer
of pv_ops MSR write call:
If on native:
cpu.write_msr = native_write_msr
If on Xen:
cpu.write_msr = xen_write_msr
Therefore, refactor pv_cpu_ops.write_msr{_safe}() to accept an MSR value
in a single u64 argument, replacing the current dual u32 arguments.
No functional change intended.

__rdmsr() is the lowest level MSR write API, with native_rdmsr()
and native_rdmsrq() serving as higher-level wrappers around it.
#define native_rdmsr(msr, val1, val2) \

__rdmsr() is the lowest-level primitive MSR read API, implemented in
assembly code and returning an MSR value in a u64 integer, on top of
which a convenience wrapper native_rdmsr() is defined to return an MSR
value in two u32 integers. For some reason, native_rdmsrq() is not
defined and __rdmsr() is directly used when it needs to return an MSR
value in a u64 integer.
Add the native_rdmsrq() helper, which is simply an alias of __rdmsr(),
to make native_rdmsr() and native_rdmsrq() a pair of MSR read APIs.

Additionally, always inline functions can match the performance of

is simple and straightforward, so just make the change.

AMD EPYC 5th generation processors have introduced a feature that allows
the hypervisor to control the SEV_FEATURES that are set for, or by, a
guest [1]. ALLOWED_SEV_FEATURES can be used by the hypervisor to enforce
that SEV-ES and SEV-SNP guests cannot enable features that the
hypervisor does not want to be enabled.
Always enable ALLOWED_SEV_FEATURES. A VMRUN will fail if any
non-reserved bits are 1 in SEV_FEATURES but are 0 in
ALLOWED_SEV_FEATURES.
Some SEV_FEATURES - currently PmcVirtualization and SecureAvic
(see Appendix B, Table B-4) - require an opt-in via ALLOWED_SEV_FEATURES,
i.e. are off-by-default, whereas all other features are effectively
on-by-default, but still honor ALLOWED_SEV_FEATURES.

An AP destroy request for a target vCPU is typically followed by an
RMPADJUST to remove the VMSA attribute from the page currently being
used as the VMSA for the target vCPU. This can result in a vCPU that
is about to VMRUN to exit with #VMEXIT_INVALID.
This usually does not happen as APs are typically sitting in HLT when
being destroyed and therefore the vCPU thread is not running at the time.
However, if HLT is allowed inside the VM, then the vCPU could be about to
VMRUN when the VMSA attribute is removed from the VMSA page, resulting in
a #VMEXIT_INVALID when the vCPU actually issues the VMRUN and causing the
guest to crash. An RMPADJUST against an in-use (already running) VMSA
results in a #NPF for the vCPU issuing the RMPADJUST, so the VMSA
attribute cannot be changed until the VMRUN for target vCPU exits. The
Qemu command line option '-overcommit cpu-pm=on' is an example of allowing
HLT inside the guest.
Update the KVM_REQ_UPDATE_PROTECTED_GUEST_STATE event to include the
KVM_REQUEST_WAIT flag. The kvm_vcpu_kick() function will not wait for
requests to be honored, so create kvm_make_request_and_kick() that will
add a new event request and honor the KVM_REQUEST_WAIT flag. This will
ensure that the target vCPU sees the AP destroy request before returning
to the initiating vCPU should the target vCPU be in guest mode.

Track the PIR bitmap in posted interrupt descriptor structures as an array
of unsigned longs instead of using unionized arrays for KVM (u32s) versus
IRQ management (u64s). In practice, because the non-KVM usage is (sanely)
restricted to 64-bit kernels, all existing usage of the u64 variant is
already working with unsigned longs.
Using "unsigned long" for the array will allow reworking KVM's processing
of the bitmap to read/write in 64-bit chunks on 64-bit kernels, i.e. will
allow optimizing KVM by reducing the number of atomic accesses to PIR.
Opportunstically replace the open coded literals in the posted MSIs code
with the appropriate macro. Deliberately don't use ARRAY_SIZE() in the
for-loops, even though it would be cleaner from a certain perspective, in
anticipation of decoupling the processing from the array declaration.
No functional change intended.

Add a module param to each KVM vendor module to allow disabling device
posted interrupts without having to sacrifice all of APICv/AVIC, and to
also effectively enumerate to userspace whether or not KVM may be
utilizing device posted IRQs. Disabling device posted interrupts is
very desirable for testing, and can even be desirable for production
environments, e.g. if the host kernel wants to interpose on device
interrupts.
Put the module param in kvm-{amd,intel}.ko instead of kvm.ko to match
the overall APICv/AVIC controls, and to avoid complications with said
controls. E.g. if the param is in kvm.ko, KVM needs to be snapshot the
original user-defined value to play nice with a vendor module being
reloaded with different enable_apicv settings.

Rescan I/O APIC routes for a vCPU after handling an intercepted I/O APIC
EOI for an IRQ that is not targeting said vCPU, i.e. after handling what's
effectively a stale EOI VM-Exit. If a level-triggered IRQ is in-flight
when IRQ routing changes, e.g. because the guest changes routing from its
IRQ handler, then KVM intercepts EOIs on both the new and old target vCPUs,
so that the in-flight IRQ can be de-asserted when it's EOI'd.
However, only the EOI for the in-flight IRQ needs to be intercepted, as
IRQs on the same vector with the new routing are coincidental, i.e. occur
only if the guest is reusing the vector for multiple interrupt sources.
If the I/O APIC routes aren't rescanned, KVM will unnecessarily intercept
EOIs for the vector and negative impact the vCPU's interrupt performance.
Note, both commit db2bdcbbbd ("KVM: x86: fix edge EOI and IOAPIC reconfig
race") and commit 0fc5a36dd6 ("KVM: x86: ioapic: Fix level-triggered EOI
and IOAPIC reconfigure race") mentioned this issue, but it was considered
a "rare" occurrence thus was not addressed. However in real environments,
this issue can happen even in a well-behaved guest.

The latest AMD platform has introduced a new instruction called PREFETCHI.
This instruction loads a cache line from a specified memory address into
the indicated data or instruction cache level, based on locality reference
hints.
Feature bit definition:
CPUID_Fn80000021_EAX [bit 20] - Indicates support for IC prefetch.
This feature is analogous to Intel's PREFETCHITI (CPUID.(EAX=7,ECX=1):EDX),
though the CPUID bit definitions differ between AMD and Intel.
Advertise support to userspace, as no additional enabling is necessary
(PREFETCHI can't be intercepted as there's no instruction specific behavior
that needs to be virtualize).
The feature is documented in Processor Programming Reference (PPR)
for AMD Family 1Ah Model 02h, Revision C1 (Link below).

Rename the WRMSRNS instruction opcode macro so that it doesn't collide
with X86_FEATURE_WRMSRNS when using token pasting to generate references
to X86_FEATURE_WRMSRNS. KVM heavily uses token pasting to generate KVM's
set of support feature bits, and adding WRMSRNS support in KVM will run
will run afoul of the opcode macro.
arch/x86/kvm/cpuid.c:719:37: error: pasting "X86_FEATURE_" and "" "" does not
give a valid preprocessing token
719 | u32 __leaf = __feature_leaf(X86_FEATURE_##name); \
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~
KVM has worked around one such collision in the past by #undef'ing the
problematic macro in order to avoid blocking a KVM rework, but such games
are generally undesirable, e.g. requires bleeding macro details into KVM,
risks weird behavior if what KVM is #undef'ing changes, etc.

Per the APM [1]:
Some processors, identified by CPUID Fn8000_0008_EBX[IbrsSameMode]
(bit 19) = 1, provide additional speculation limits. For these
processors, when IBRS is set, indirect branch predictions are not
influenced by any prior indirect branches, regardless of mode (CPL
and guest/host) and regardless of whether the prior indirect branches
occurred before or after the setting of IBRS. This is referred to as
Same Mode IBRS.
Define this feature bit, which will be used by KVM to determine if an
IBPB is required on nested VM-exits in SVM.

The SNP guest boots, but no longer has access to the VMPCK keys needed
to communicate with the ASP, which is used, for example, to obtain an
attestation report.
The secrets_pa value is defined as static in both startup.c and
core.c. It is set by a function in startup.c and so when used in
core.c its value will be 0.
Share it again and add the sev_ prefix to put it into the global
SEV symbols namespace.

Make it inline---it also works out nicely in preparation for using it in

Recently _pgd_alloc() was switched from using __get_free_pages() to
pagetable_alloc_noprof(), which might return a compound page in case
the allocation order is larger than 0.
On x86 this will be the case if CONFIG_MITIGATION_PAGE_TABLE_ISOLATION
is set, even if PTI has been disabled at runtime.
When running as a Xen PV guest (this will always disable PTI), using
a compound page for a PGD will result in VM_BUG_ON_PGFLAGS being
triggered when the Xen code tries to pin the PGD.
Fix the Xen issue together with the not needed 8k allocation for a
PGD with PTI disabled by replacing PGD_ALLOCATION_ORDER with an
inline helper returning the needed order for PGD allocations.

Replace the open-coded ifdefs in C sources files with IS_ENABLED().
This makes the code easier to read and enables the compiler to typecheck
also the disabled parts, before optimizing them away.
To make this work, also remove the ifdefs from declarations of used
variables.

Old microcode is bad for users and for kernel developers.
For users, it exposes them to known fixed security and/or functional
issues. These obviously rarely result in instant dumpster fires in
every environment. But it is as important to keep your microcode up
to date as it is to keep your kernel up to date.
Old microcode also makes kernels harder to debug. A developer looking
at an oops need to consider kernel bugs, known CPU issues and unknown
CPU issues as possible causes. If they know the microcode is up to
date, they can mostly eliminate known CPU issues as the cause.
Make it easier to tell if CPU microcode is out of date. Add a list
of released microcode. If the loaded microcode is older than the
release, tell users in a place that folks can find it:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/old_microcode
Tell kernel kernel developers about it with the existing taint
flag:
TAINT_CPU_OUT_OF_SPEC
== Discussion ==
When a user reports a potential kernel issue, it is very common
to ask them to reproduce the issue on mainline. Running mainline,
they will (independently from the distro) acquire a more up-to-date
microcode version list. If their microcode is old, they will
get a warning about the taint and kernel developers can take that
into consideration when debugging.
Just like any other entry in "vulnerabilities/", users are free to
make their own assessment of their exposure.
== Microcode Revision Discussion ==
The microcode versions in the table were generated from the Intel
microcode git repo:
8ac9378a8487 ("microcode-20241112 Release")
which as of this writing lags behind the latest microcode-20250211.
It can be argued that the versions that the kernel picks to call "old"
should be a revision or two old. Which specific version is picked is
less important to me than picking *a* version and enforcing it.
This repository contains only microcode versions that Intel has deemed
to be OS-loadable. It is quite possible that the BIOS has loaded a
newer microcode than the latest in this repo. If this happens, the
system is considered to have new microcode, not old.
Specifically, the sysfs file and taint flag answer the question:
Is the CPU running on the latest OS-loadable microcode,
or something even later that the BIOS loaded?
In other words, Intel never publishes an authoritative list of CPUs
and latest microcode revisions. Until it does, this is the best that
Linux can do.
Also note that the "intel-ucode-defs.h" file is simple, ugly and
has lots of magic numbers. That's on purpose and should allow a
single file to be shared across lots of stable kernel regardless of if
they have the new "VFM" infrastructure or not. It was generated with
a dumb script.
== FAQ ==
Q: Does this tell me if my system is secure or insecure?
A: No. It only tells you if your microcode was old when the
system booted.
Q: Should the kernel warn if the microcode list itself is too old?
A: No. New kernels will get new microcode lists, both mainline
and stable. The only way to have an old list is to be running
an old kernel in which case you have bigger problems.
Q: Is this for security or functional issues?
A: Both.
Q: If a given microcode update only has functional problems but
no security issues, will it be considered old?
A: Yes. All microcode image versions within a microcode release
are treated identically. Intel appears to make security
updates without disclosing them in the release notes. Thus,
all updates are considered to be security-relevant.
Q: Who runs old microcode?
A: Anybody with an old distro. This happens all the time inside
of Intel where there are lots of weird systems in labs that
might not be getting regular distro updates and might also
be running rather exotic microcode images.
Q: If I update my microcode after booting will it stop saying
"Vulnerable"?
A: No. Just like all the other vulnerabilies, you need to
reboot before the kernel will reassess your vulnerability.

Minimum version of binutils required to compile the kernel is 2.25.
This version correctly handles the "rep" prefixes, so it is possible
to remove the semicolon, which was used to support ancient versions
of GNU as.
Due to the semicolon, the compiler considers "rep; insn" (or its
alternate "rep\n\tinsn" form) as two separate instructions. Removing
the semicolon makes asm length calculations more accurate, consequently
making scheduling and inlining decisions of the compiler more accurate.
Removing the semicolon also enables assembler checks involving "rep"
prefixes. Trying to assemble e.g. "rep addl %eax, %ebx" results in:
Error: invalid instruction `add' after `rep'
