The wait for control loop in which the siblings are waiting for the
microcode update on the primary thread must be protected against
instrumentation as instrumentation can end up in #INT3, #DB or #PF,
which then returns with IRET. That IRET reenables NMI which is the
opposite of what the NMI rendezvous is trying to achieve.

stop_machine() does not prevent the spin-waiting sibling from handling
an NMI, which is obviously violating the whole concept of rendezvous.
Implement a static branch right in the beginning of the NMI handler
which is nopped out except when enabled by the late loading mechanism.
The late loader enables the static branch before stop_machine() is
invoked. Each CPU has an nmi_enable in its control structure which
indicates whether the CPU should go into the update routine.
This is required to bridge the gap between enabling the branch and
actually being at the point where it is required to enter the loader
wait loop.
Each CPU which arrives in the stopper thread function sets that flag and
issues a self NMI right after that. If the NMI function sees the flag
clear, it returns. If it's set it clears the flag and enters the
rendezvous.
This is safe against a real NMI which hits in between setting the flag
and sending the NMI to itself. The real NMI will be swallowed by the
microcode update and the self NMI will then let stuff continue.
Otherwise this would end up with a spurious NMI.

The current all in one code is unreadable and really not suited for
adding future features like uniform loading with package or system
scope.
Provide a set of new control functions which split the handling of the
primary and secondary CPUs. These will replace the current rendezvous
all in one function in the next step. This is intentionally a separate
change because diff makes an complete unreadable mess otherwise.
So the flow separates the primary and the secondary CPUs into their own
functions which use the control field in the per CPU ucode_ctrl struct.

Add a per CPU control field to ucode_ctrl and define constants for it
which are going to be used to control the loading state machine.
In theory this could be a global control field, but a global control does
not cover the following case:
15 primary CPUs load microcode successfully
1 primary CPU fails and returns with an error code
With global control the sibling of the failed CPU would either try again or
the whole operation would be aborted with the consequence that the 15
siblings do not invoke the apply path and end up with inconsistent software
state. The result in dmesg would be inconsistent too.
There are two additional fields added and initialized:
ctrl_cpu and secondaries. ctrl_cpu is the CPU number of the primary thread
for now, but with the upcoming uniform loading at package or system scope
this will be one CPU per package or just one CPU. Secondaries hands the
control CPU a CPU mask which will be required to release the secondary CPUs
out of the wait loop.
Preparatory change for implementing a properly split control flow for
primary and secondary CPUs.

- The return value is pointless as this is a strict boolean.
- It's way simpler to count down from num_online_cpus() and check for

- The timeout argument is pointless as this is always one second.
- Touching the NMI watchdog every 100ns does not make any sense, neither
does checking every 100ns. This is really not a hotpath operation.

On CPUs where microcode loading is not NMI-safe the SMT siblings which
are parked in one of the play_dead() variants still react to NMIs.
So if an NMI hits while the primary thread updates the microcode the
resulting behaviour is undefined. The default play_dead() implementation on
modern CPUs is using MWAIT which is not guaranteed to be safe against
a microcode update which affects MWAIT.
Take the cpus_booted_once_mask into account to detect this case and
refuse to load late if the vendor specific driver does not advertise
that late loading is NMI safe.
AMD stated that this is safe, so mark the AMD driver accordingly.
This requirement will be partially lifted in later changes.

The early loading code is overly complicated:
- It scans the builtin/initrd for microcode not only on the BSP, but also
on all APs during early boot and then later in the boot process it
scans again to duplicate and save the microcode before initrd goes
away.
That's a pointless exercise because this can be simply done before
bringing up the APs when the memory allocator is up and running.
- Saving the microcode from within the scan loop is completely
non-obvious and a left over of the microcode cache.
This can be done at the call site now which makes it obvious.
Rework the code so that only the BSP scans the builtin/initrd microcode
once during early boot and save it away in an early initcall for later
use.
[ bp: Test and fold in a fix from tglx ontop which handles the need to
distinguish what save_microcode() does depending on when it is
called:
- when on the BSP during early load, it needs to find a newer
revision than the one currently loaded on the BSP
- later, before SMP init, it still runs on the BSP and gets the BSP
revision just loaded and uses that revision to know which patch
to save for the APs. For that it needs to find the exact one as
on the BSP.

32-bit loads microcode before paging is enabled. The commit which
introduced that has zero justification in the changelog. The cover
letter has slightly more content, but it does not give any technical
justification either:
"The problem in current microcode loading method is that we load a
microcode way, way too late; ideally we should load it before turning
paging on. This may only be practical on 32 bits since we can't get
to 64-bit mode without paging on, but we should still do it as early
as at all possible."
Handwaving word salad with zero technical content.
Someone claimed in an offlist conversation that this is required for
curing the ATOM erratum AAE44/AAF40/AAG38/AAH41. That erratum requires
an microcode update in order to make the usage of PSE safe. But during
early boot, PSE is completely irrelevant and it is evaluated way later.
Neither is it relevant for the AP on single core HT enabled CPUs as the
microcode loading on the AP is not doing anything.
On dual core CPUs there is a theoretical problem if a split of an
executable large page between enabling paging including PSE and loading
the microcode happens. But that's only theoretical, it's practically
irrelevant because the affected dual core CPUs are 64bit enabled and
therefore have paging and PSE enabled before loading the microcode on
the second core. So why would it work on 64-bit but not on 32-bit?
The erratum:
"AAG38 Code Fetch May Occur to Incorrect Address After a Large Page is
Split Into 4-Kbyte Pages
Problem: If software clears the PS (page size) bit in a present PDE
(page directory entry), that will cause linear addresses mapped through
this PDE to use 4-KByte pages instead of using a large page after old
TLB entries are invalidated. Due to this erratum, if a code fetch uses
this PDE before the TLB entry for the large page is invalidated then it
may fetch from a different physical address than specified by either the
old large page translation or the new 4-KByte page translation. This
erratum may also cause speculative code fetches from incorrect addresses."
The practical relevance for this is exactly zero because there is no
splitting of large text pages during early boot-time, i.e. between paging
enable and microcode loading, and neither during CPU hotplug.
IOW, this load microcode before paging enable is yet another voodoo
programming solution in search of a problem. What's worse is that it causes
at least two serious problems:
1) When stackprotector is enabled, the microcode loader code has the
stackprotector mechanics enabled. The read from the per CPU variable
__stack_chk_guard is always accessing the virtual address either
directly on UP or via %fs on SMP. In physical address mode this
results in an access to memory above 3GB. So this works by chance as
the hardware returns the same value when there is no RAM at this
physical address. When there is RAM populated above 3G then the read
is by chance the same as nothing changes that memory during the very
early boot stage. That's not necessarily true during runtime CPU
hotplug.
2) When function tracing is enabled, the relevant microcode loader
functions and the functions invoked from there will call into the
tracing code and evaluate global and per CPU variables in physical
address mode. What could potentially go wrong?
Cure this and move the microcode loading after the early paging enable, use
the new temporary initrd mapping and remove the gunk in the microcode
loader which is required to handle physical address mode.

The AMD side of the loader has always claimed to support mixed
steppings. But somewhere along the way, it broke that by assuming that
the cached patch blob is a single one instead of it being one per
*node*.
So turn it into a per-node one so that each node can stash the blob
relevant for it.

print_ucode_info() takes a struct ucode_cpu_info pointer as parameter.
Its sole purpose is to print the microcode revision.
The only available ucode_cpu_info always describes the currently loaded

new revision, or on failure it is the original revision.

as a result of certain command line parameters or configuration
restrictions, for example the SGX bit. This can cause a mismatch when
comparing the values before and after the microcode update.
Another example is X86_FEATURE_SRBDS_CTRL which gets added only after

and which proves for a gazillionth time that late loading is a bad bad
idea.
microcode_check() is called after an update to report any previously
cached CPUID bits which might have changed due to the update.
Therefore, store the cached CPU caps before the update and compare them
with the CPU caps after the microcode update has succeeded.
Thus, the comparison is done between the CPUID *hardware* bits before
and after the upgrade instead of using the cached, possibly runtime
modified values in BSP's boot_cpu_data copy.
As a result, false warnings about CPUID bits changes are avoided.

It can happen that - especially during testing - the microcode
blobs of all families are all glued together in the initrd. The
current code doesn't check whether the current container matched
a microcode patch and continues to the next one, which leads to
save_microcode_in_initrd_amd() to look at the next and thus wrong one:
microcode: parse_container: ucode: 0xffff88807e9d9082
microcode: verify_patch: buf: 0xffff88807e9d90ce, buf_size: 26428
microcode: verify_patch: proc_id: 0x8082, patch_fam: 0x17, this family: 0x17

microcode: parse_container: MATCH: eq_id: 0x8012, patch proc_rev_id: 0x8012

microcode: Invalid type field (0x414d44) in container file section header.
microcode: Patch section fail
<-- checking chokes on the microcode magic value of the next container.
microcode: parse_container: saving container 0xffff88807e9d9082
microcode: save_microcode_in_initrd_amd: scanned containers, data: 0xffff88807e9d9082, size: 9700a
and now if there's a next (and last container) it'll use that in
save_microcode_in_initrd_amd() and not find a proper patch, ofc.
Fix that by moving the out: label up, before the desc->mc check which
jots down the pointer of the matching patch and is used to signal to the

collect_cpu_info() is used to collect the current microcode revision and
processor flags on every CPU.
It had a weird mechanism to try to mimick a "once" functionality in the
sense that, that information should be issued only when it is differing
from the previous CPU.
However (1):
the new calling sequence started doing that in parallel:
microcode_init()
|-> schedule_on_each_cpu(setup_online_cpu)
|-> collect_cpu_info()
resulting in multiple redundant prints:
microcode: sig=0x50654, pf=0x80, revision=0x2006e05
microcode: sig=0x50654, pf=0x80, revision=0x2006e05
microcode: sig=0x50654, pf=0x80, revision=0x2006e05
However (2):
dumping this here is not that important because the kernel does not
support mixed silicon steppings microcode. Finally!
Besides, there is already a pr_info() in microcode_reload_late() that
shows both the old and new revisions.
What is more, the CPU signature (sig=0x50654) and Processor Flags
(pf=0x80) above aren't that useful to the end user, they are available
via /proc/cpuinfo and they don't change anyway.
Remove the redundant pr_info().

Get rid of all the IPI-sending functions and their wrappers and use
those which are supposed to be called on each CPU.
Thus:
- microcode_init_cpu() gets called on each CPU on init, applying any new
microcode that the driver might've found on the filesystem.
- mc_cpu_starting() simply tries to apply cached microcode as this is
the cpuhp starting callback which gets called on CPU resume too.
Even if the driver init function is a late initcall, there is no
filesystem by then (not even a hdd driver has been loaded yet) so a new
firmware load attempt cannot simply be done.
It is pointless anyway - for that there's late loading if one really
needs it.

This is a left-over from the old days when CPU hotplug wasn't as robust
as it is now. Currently, microcode gets loaded early on the CPU init
path and there's no need to attempt to load it again, which that subsys
interface callback is doing.
The only other thing that the subsys interface init path was doing is
adding the
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/microcode/
hierarchy.
So add a function which gets called on each CPU after all the necessary
driver setup has happened. Use schedule_on_each_cpu() which can block
because the sysfs creating code does kmem_cache_zalloc() which can block
too and the initial version of this where it did that setup in an IPI
handler of on_each_cpu() can cause a deadlock of the sort:
lock(fs_reclaim);
<Interrupt>
lock(fs_reclaim);
as the IPI handler runs in IRQ context.

Currently, the patch application logic checks whether the revision
needs to be applied on each logical CPU (SMT thread). Therefore, on SMT
designs where the microcode engine is shared between the two threads,
the application happens only on one of them as that is enough to update
the shared microcode engine.
However, there are microcode patches which do per-thread modification,
see Link tag below.
Therefore, drop the revision check and try applying on each thread. This
is what the BIOS does too so this method is very much tested.
Btw, change only the early paths. On the late loading paths, there's no
point in doing per-thread modification because if is it some case like
in the bugzilla below - removing a CPUID flag - the kernel cannot go and
un-use features it has detected are there early. For that, one should
use early loading anyway.

In preparation for reducing the use of ksize(), record the actual
allocation size for later memcpy(). This avoids copying extra
(uninitialized!) bytes into the patch buffer when the requested
allocation size isn't exactly the size of a kmalloc bucket.
Additionally, fix potential future issues where runtime bounds checking
will notice that the buffer was allocated to a smaller value than
returned by ksize().

IFS is a CPU feature that allows a binary blob, similar to microcode,
to be loaded and consumed to perform low level validation of CPU
circuitry. In fact, it carries the same Processor Signature
(family/model/stepping) details that are contained in Intel microcode
blobs.
In support of an IFS driver to trigger loading, validation, and running
of these tests blobs, make the functionality of cpu_signatures_match()
and collect_cpu_info_early() available outside of the microcode driver.
Add an "intel_" prefix and drop the "_early" suffix from
collect_cpu_info_early() and EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() it. Add
declaration to x86 <asm/cpu.h>
Make cpu_signatures_match() an inline function in x86 <asm/cpu.h>,
and also give it an "intel_" prefix.
No functional change intended.

Currently, the late microcode loading mechanism checks whether any CPUs
are offlined, and, in such a case, aborts the load attempt.
However, this must be done before the kernel caches new microcode from
the filesystem. Otherwise, when offlined CPUs are onlined later, those
cores are going to be updated through the CPU hotplug notifier callback
with the new microcode, while CPUs previously onine will continue to run
with the older microcode.
For example:
Turn off one core (2 threads):
echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu3/online
echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
Install the ucode fails because a primary SMT thread is offline:
cp intel-ucode/06-8e-09 /lib/firmware/intel-ucode/
echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/microcode/reload
bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
Turn the core back on
echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu3/online
echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
cat /proc/cpuinfo |grep microcode
microcode : 0x30
microcode : 0xde
microcode : 0x30
microcode : 0xde
The rationale for why the update is aborted when at least one primary
thread is offline is because even if that thread is soft-offlined
and idle, it will still have to participate in broadcasted MCE's
synchronization dance or enter SMM, and in both examples it will execute
instructions so it better have the same microcode revision as the other
cores.

x86/microcode/amd: Remove unneeded break
Currently, scan_microcode() leverages microcode_matches() to check
if the microcode matches the CPU by comparing the family and model.
However, the processor stepping and flags of the microcode signature
should also be considered when saving a microcode patch for early
update.
Use find_matching_signature() in scan_microcode() and get rid of the
now-unused microcode_matches() which is a good cleanup in itself.
Complete the verification of the patch being saved for early loading in
save_microcode_patch() directly. This needs to be done there too because
save_mc_for_early() will call save_microcode_patch() too.
The second reason why this needs to be done is because the loader still
tries to support, at least hypothetically, mixed-steppings systems and
thus adds all patches to the cache that belong to the same CPU model
albeit with different steppings.
For example:
microcode: CPU: sig=0x906ec, pf=0x2, rev=0xd6
microcode: mc_saved[0]: sig=0x906e9, pf=0x2a, rev=0xd6, total size=0x19400, date = 2020-04-23
microcode: mc_saved[1]: sig=0x906ea, pf=0x22, rev=0xd6, total size=0x19000, date = 2020-04-27
microcode: mc_saved[2]: sig=0x906eb, pf=0x2, rev=0xd6, total size=0x19400, date = 2020-04-23
microcode: mc_saved[3]: sig=0x906ec, pf=0x22, rev=0xd6, total size=0x19000, date = 2020-04-27
microcode: mc_saved[4]: sig=0x906ed, pf=0x22, rev=0xd6, total size=0x19400, date = 2020-04-23
The patch which is being saved for early loading, however, can only be
the one which fits the CPU this runs on so do the signature verification
before saving.

The x86 microcode support works just fine without FW_LOADER. In fact,
these days most people load microcode early during boot so FW_LOADER
never gets into the picture anyway.
As almost everyone on x86 needs to enable MICROCODE, this by extension
means that FW_LOADER is always built into the kernel even if nothing
uses it. The FW_LOADER system is about two thousand lines long and
contains user-space facing interfaces that could potentially provide an
entry point into the kernel (or beyond).
Remove the unnecessary select of FW_LOADER by MICROCODE. People who need
the FW_LOADER capability can still enable it.

Microcode update was changed to be serialized due to restrictions after
Spectre days. Updating serially on a large multi-socket system can be
painful since it is being done on one CPU at a time.
Cloud customers have expressed discontent as services disappear for
a prolonged time. The restriction is that only one core (or only one
thread of a core in the case of an SMT system) goes through the update
while other cores (or respectively, SMT threads) are quiesced.
Do the microcode update only on the first thread of each core while
other siblings simply wait for this to complete.

- A fair pile of RST conversions, many from Mauro. These create more
than the usual number of simple but annoying merge conflicts with other
trees, unfortunately. He has a lot more of these waiting on the wings
that, I think, will go to you directly later on.
- A new document on how to use merges and rebases in kernel repos, and one
on Spectre vulnerabilities.
- Various improvements to the build system, including automatic markup of
function() references because some people, for reasons I will never
understand, were of the opinion that :c:func:``function()`` is
unattractive and not fun to type.
- We now recommend using sphinx 1.7, but still support back to 1.4.
- Lots of smaller improvements, warning fixes, typo fixes, etc.

x86/resctrl: Prevent possible overrun during bitmap operations
x86/microcode: Fix the microcode load on CPU hotplug for real
A recent change moved the microcode loader hotplug callback into the early
startup phase which is running with interrupts disabled. It missed that
the callbacks invoke sysfs functions which might sleep causing nice 'might
sleep' splats with proper debugging enabled.
Split the callbacks and only load the microcode in the early startup phase
and move the sysfs handling back into the later threaded and preemptible
bringup phase where it was before.

Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"The accumulated fixes from this and last week:
- Fix vmalloc TLB flush and map range calculations which lead to
stale TLBs, spurious faults and other hard to diagnose issues.
- Use fault_in_pages_writable() for prefaulting the user stack in the
FPU code as it's less fragile than the current solution
- Use the PF_KTHREAD flag when checking for a kernel thread instead
of current->mm as the latter can give the wrong answer due to
use_mm()
- Compute the vmemmap size correctly for KASLR and 5-Level paging.
Otherwise this can end up with a way too small vmemmap area.
- Make KASAN and 5-level paging work again by making sure that all
invalid bits are masked out when computing the P4D offset. This
worked before but got broken recently when the LDT remap area was
moved.
- Prevent a NULL pointer dereference in the resource control code
which can be triggered with certain mount options when the
requested resource is not available.
- Enforce ordering of microcode loading vs. perf initialization on
secondary CPUs. Otherwise perf tries to access a non-existing MSR
as the boot CPU marked it as available.
- Don't stop the resource control group walk early otherwise the
control bitmaps are not updated correctly and become inconsistent.
- Unbreak kgdb by returning 0 on success from
kgdb_arch_set_breakpoint() instead of an error code.
- Add more Icelake CPU model defines so depending changes can be
queued in other trees"
