Indirect Target Selection (ITS) is a bug in some pre-ADL Intel CPUs with
eIBRS. It affects prediction of indirect branch and RETs in the
lower half of cacheline. Due to ITS such branches may get wrongly predicted
to a target of (direct or indirect) branch that is located in the upper
half of the cacheline.
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 branches in the
guest.
Intra-mode
----------
cBPF or other native gadgets can be used for intra-mode training and
disclosure using ITS.
User/kernel isolation
---------------------
When eIBRS is enabled user/kernel isolation is not impacted.
Indirect Branch Prediction Barrier (IBPB)
-----------------------------------------
After an IBPB, indirect branches may be predicted with targets
corresponding to direct branches which were executed prior to IBPB. This is
mitigated by a microcode update.
Add cmdline parameter indirect_target_selection=off|on|force to control the
mitigation to relocate the affected branches to an ITS-safe thunk i.e.
located in the upper half of cacheline. Also add the sysfs reporting.
When retpoline mitigation is deployed, ITS safe-thunks are not needed,
because retpoline sequence is already ITS-safe. Similarly, when call depth
tracking (CDT) mitigation is deployed (retbleed=stuff), ITS safe return
thunk is not used, as CDT prevents RSB-underflow.
To not overcomplicate things, ITS mitigation is not supported with
spectre-v2 lfence;jmp mitigation. Moreover, it is less practical to deploy
lfence;jmp mitigation on ITS affected parts anyways.

RETs in the lower half of cacheline may be affected by ITS bug,
specifically when the RSB-underflows. Use ITS-safe return thunk for such
RETs.
RETs that are not patched:
- RET in retpoline sequence does not need to be patched, because the
sequence itself fills an RSB before RET.
- RET in Call Depth Tracking (CDT) thunks __x86_indirect_{call|jump}_thunk
and call_depth_return_thunk are not patched because CDT by design
prevents RSB-underflow.
- RETs in .init section are not reachable after init.
- RETs that are explicitly marked safe with ANNOTATE_UNRET_SAFE.

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.

tl;dr: There is a window in the mm switching code where the new CR3 is
set and the CPU should be getting TLB flushes for the new mm. But
should_flush_tlb() has a bug and suppresses the flush. Fix it by
widening the window where should_flush_tlb() sends an IPI.
Long Version:
=== History ===
There were a few things leading up to this.
First, updating mm_cpumask() was observed to be too expensive, so it was
made lazier. But being lazy caused too many unnecessary IPIs to CPUs
due to the now-lazy mm_cpumask(). So code was added to cull
mm_cpumask() periodically[2]. But that culling was a bit too aggressive
and skipped sending TLB flushes to CPUs that need them. So here we are
again.
=== Problem ===
The too-aggressive code in should_flush_tlb() strikes in this window:
// Turn on IPIs for this CPU/mm combination, but only
// if should_flush_tlb() agrees:
cpumask_set_cpu(cpu, mm_cpumask(next));
next_tlb_gen = atomic64_read(&next->context.tlb_gen);
choose_new_asid(next, next_tlb_gen, &new_asid, &need_flush);
load_new_mm_cr3(need_flush);
// ^ After 'need_flush' is set to false, IPIs *MUST*
// be sent to this CPU and not be ignored.
this_cpu_write(cpu_tlbstate.loaded_mm, next);
// ^ Not until this point does should_flush_tlb()
// become true!
should_flush_tlb() will suppress TLB flushes between load_new_mm_cr3()
and writing to 'loaded_mm', which is a window where they should not be
suppressed. Whoops.
=== Solution ===
Thankfully, the fuzzy "just about to write CR3" window is already marked
with loaded_mm==LOADED_MM_SWITCHING. Simply checking for that state in
should_flush_tlb() is sufficient to ensure that the CPU is targeted with
an IPI.
This will cause more TLB flush IPIs. But the window is relatively small
and I do not expect this to cause any kind of measurable performance
impact.
Update the comment where LOADED_MM_SWITCHING is written since it grew
yet another user.
Peter Z also raised a concern that should_flush_tlb() might not observe
'loaded_mm' and 'is_lazy' in the same order that switch_mm_irqs_off()
writes them. Add a barrier to ensure that they are observed in the
order they are written.

The TDX guest exposes one MRTD (Build-time Measurement Register) and four

like attestation and trusted boot.
To facilitate updating the RTMR registers, the TDX module provides support
for the `TDG.MR.RTMR.EXTEND` TDCALL which can be used to securely extend
the RTMR registers.
Add helper function to update RTMR registers. It will be used by the TDX

Set the magic BP_SPEC_REDUCE bit to mitigate SRSO when running VMs if and
only if KVM has at least one active VM. Leaving the bit set at all times
unfortunately degrades performance by a wee bit more than expected.
Use a dedicated spinlock and counter instead of hooking virtualization
enablement, as changing the behavior of kvm.enable_virt_at_load based on
SRSO_BP_SPEC_REDUCE is painful, and has its own drawbacks, e.g. could
result in performance issues for flows that are sensitive to VM creation
latency.
Defer setting BP_SPEC_REDUCE until VMRUN is imminent to avoid impacting
performance on CPUs that aren't running VMs, e.g. if a setup is using
housekeeping CPUs. Setting BP_SPEC_REDUCE in task context, i.e. without
blasting IPIs to all CPUs, also helps avoid serializing 1<=>N transitions
without incurring a gross amount of complexity (see the Link for details
on how ugly coordinating via IPIs gets).

With the possibility of intra-mode BHI via cBPF, complete mitigation for
BHI is to use IBHF (history fence) instruction with BHI_DIS_S set. Since
this new instruction is only available in 64-bit mode, setting BHI_DIS_S in
32-bit mode is only a partial mitigation.
Do not set BHI_DIS_S in 32-bit mode so as to avoid reporting misleading
mitigated status. With this change IBHF won't be used in 32-bit mode, also

Classic BPF programs can be run by unprivileged users, allowing
unprivileged code to execute inside the kernel. Attackers can use this to
craft branch history in kernel mode that can influence the target of
indirect branches.
BHI_DIS_S provides user-kernel isolation of branch history, but cBPF can be
used to bypass this protection by crafting branch history in kernel mode.
To stop intra-mode attacks via cBPF programs, Intel created a new
instruction Indirect Branch History Fence (IBHF). IBHF prevents the
predicted targets of subsequent indirect branches from being influenced by
branch history prior to the IBHF. IBHF is only effective while BHI_DIS_S is
enabled.
Add the IBHF instruction to cBPF jitted code's exit path. Add the new fence
when the hardware mitigation is enabled (i.e., X86_FEATURE_CLEAR_BHB_HW is
set) or after the software sequence (X86_FEATURE_CLEAR_BHB_LOOP) is being
used in a virtual machine. Note that X86_FEATURE_CLEAR_BHB_HW and
X86_FEATURE_CLEAR_BHB_LOOP are mutually exclusive, so the JIT compiler will
only emit the new fence, not the SW sequence, when X86_FEATURE_CLEAR_BHB_HW
is set.
Hardware that enumerates BHI_NO basically has BHI_DIS_S protections always
enabled, regardless of the value of BHI_DIS_S. Since BHI_DIS_S doesn't
protect against intra-mode attacks, enumerate BHI bug on BHI_NO hardware as
well.

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

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;
/* Pairs with the READ_ONCE() in xstate_get_group_perm() */
WRITE_ONCE(perm->__state_perm, mask);

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.

CPUID(0x80000000).EAX returns the max extended CPUID leaf available. On
x86-32 machines without an extended CPUID range, a CPUID(0x80000000)
query will just repeat the output of the last valid standard CPUID leaf
on the CPU; i.e., a garbage values. Current tip:x86/cpu code protects against
this by doing:
eax = cpuid_eax(0x80000000);
c->extended_cpuid_level = eax;
if ((eax & 0xffff0000) == 0x80000000) {
// CPU has an extended CPUID range. Check for 0x80000001
if (eax >= 0x80000001) {
cpuid(0x80000001, ...);
}
}
This is correct so far. Afterwards though, the same possibly broken EAX
value is used to check the availability of other extended CPUID leaves:
if (c->extended_cpuid_level >= 0x80000007)
...
if (c->extended_cpuid_level >= 0x80000008)
...
if (c->extended_cpuid_level >= 0x8000000a)
...
if (c->extended_cpuid_level >= 0x8000001f)
...
which is invalid. Fix this by immediately setting the CPU's max extended
CPUID leaf to zero if CPUID(0x80000000).EAX doesn't indicate a valid
CPUID extended range.
While at it, add a comment, similar to kernel/head_32.S, clarifying the
CPUID(0x80000000) sanity check.

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.

Instead of providing crypto_shash algorithms for the arch-optimized
SHA-256 code, instead implement the SHA-256 library. This is much
simpler, it makes the SHA-256 library functions be arch-optimized, and
it fixes the longstanding issue where the arch-optimized SHA-256 was
disabled by default. SHA-256 still remains available through
crypto_shash, but individual architectures no longer need to handle it.
To match sha256_blocks_arch(), change the type of the nblocks parameter
of the assembly functions from int to size_t. The assembly functions
actually already treated it as size_t.

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.

Nathan reported [1] that when built with clang, the um kernel
crashes pretty much immediately. This turned out to be an issue
with the inline assembly I had added, when clang used %rax/%eax
for both operands. Reorder it so current->thread.segv_continue
is written first, and then the lifetime of _faulted won't have
overlap with the lifetime of segv_continue.
In the email thread Benjamin also pointed out that current->mm
is only NULL for true kernel tasks, but we could do this for a
userspace task, so the current->thread.segv_continue logic must
be lifted out of the mm==NULL check.
Finally, while looking at this, put a barrier() so the NULL
assignment to thread.segv_continue cannot be reorder before
the possibly faulting operation.

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.

perf/x86/intel: KVM: Mask PEBS_ENABLE loaded for guest with vCPU's value.
perf/x86/intel/ds: Fix counter backwards of non-precise events counters-snapshotting

The SME encryption startup code populates page tables using the ordinary
set_pXX() helpers, and in a PTI build, these will call out to
__pti_set_user_pgtbl() to manipulate the shadow copy of the page tables
for user space.
This is unneeded for the startup code, which only manipulates the
swapper page tables, and so this call could be avoided in this
particular case. So instead of exposing the ordinary
__pti_set_user_pgtblt() to the startup code after its gets confined into
its own symbol space, provide an alternative which just returns pgd,
which is always correct in the startup context.
Annotate it as __weak for now, this will be dropped in a subsequent
patch.

Startup code that may execute from the early 1:1 mapping of memory will
be confined into its own address space, and only be permitted to access
ordinary kernel symbols if this is known to be safe.
Introduce a macro helper SYM_PIC_ALIAS() that emits a __pi_ prefixed
alias for a symbol, which allows startup code to access it.

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().

Commit:
d54d610243 ("x86/boot/sev: Avoid shared GHCB page for early memory acceptance")
provided a fix for SEV-SNP memory acceptance from the EFI stub when
running at VMPL #0. However, that fix was insufficient for SVSM SEV-SNP
guests running at VMPL >0, as those rely on a SVSM calling area, which
is a shared buffer whose address is programmed into a SEV-SNP MSR, and
the SEV init code that sets up this calling area executes much later
during the boot.
Given that booting via the EFI stub at VMPL >0 implies that the firmware
has configured this calling area already, reuse it for performing memory
acceptance in the EFI stub.

When changing memory attributes on a subset of a potential hugepage, add
the hugepage to the invalidation range tracking to prevent installing a
hugepage until the attributes are fully updated. Like the actual hugepage
tracking updates in kvm_arch_post_set_memory_attributes(), process only
the head and tail pages, as any potential hugepages that are entirely
covered by the range will already be tracked.
Note, only hugepage chunks whose current attributes are NOT mixed need to
be added to the invalidation set, as mixed attributes already prevent
installing a hugepage, and it's perfectly safe to install a smaller
mapping for a gfn whose attributes aren't changing.

Eliminate a lot of stub definitions by using macros to define the TDX vs
non-TDX versions of various x86_ops. Moving the x86_ops wrappers under
CONFIG_KVM_INTEL_TDX also allows nearly all of vmx/main.c to go under a
single #ifdef, eliminating trampolines in the generated code, and almost
all of the stubs.
For example, with CONFIG_KVM_INTEL_TDX=n, before this cleanup,
vt_refresh_apicv_exec_ctrl() would produce:
0000000000036490 <vt_refresh_apicv_exec_ctrl>:

Define kvm_complete_insn_gp() as vmx_complete_emulated_msr() and use the

.complete_emulated_msr() implementation follows the soon-to-be-standard
pattern of:
vt_abc:

return vmx_abc();
This will allow generating such wrappers via a macro, which in turn will
make it trivially easy to skip the wrappers entirely when KVM_INTEL_TDX=n.

In preparation for a cleanup of the kvm_x86_ops struct for TDX, all vt_*
functions are expected to act as glue functions that route to either tdx_*
or vmx_* based on the VM type. Specifically, the pattern is:
vt_abc:
if (is_td())
return tdx_abc();
return vmx_abc();
But vt_apicv_pre_state_restore() does not follow this pattern. To
facilitate that cleanup, rename and move vt_apicv_pre_state_restore() into
posted_intr.c.
Opportunistically turn vcpu_to_pi_desc() back into a static function, as
the only reason it was exposed outside of posted_intr.c was for
vt_apicv_pre_state_restore().
No functional change intended.

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)
/ \
/ \

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.

set_seg() is used to write the following MSRs on Xen:
MSR_FS_BASE
MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASE
MSR_GS_BASE
But none of these MSRs are written using any MSR write safe API.
Therefore there is no need to pass an error pointer argument to
set_seg() for returning an error code to be used in MSR safe APIs.
Remove the error pointer argument.

As pmu_msr_{read,write}() are now wrappers of pmu_msr_chk_emulated(),
remove them and use pmu_msr_chk_emulated() directly.
As pmu_msr_chk_emulated() could easily return false in the cases where
it would set *emul to false, remove the "emul" argument and use the
return value instead.
While at it, convert the data type of MSR index to u32 in functions
called in pmu_msr_chk_emulated().

hpa found that pmu_msr_write() is actually a completely pointless
function:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/0ec48b84-d158-47c6-b14c-3563fd14bcc4@zytor.com/
all it does is shuffle some arguments, then calls pmu_msr_chk_emulated()
and if it returns true AND the emulated flag is clear then does
*exactly the same thing* that the calling code would have done if
pmu_msr_write() itself had returned true.
And pmu_msr_read() does the equivalent stupidity.
Remove the calls to native_{read,write}_msr{,_safe}() within
pmu_msr_{read,write}(). Instead reuse the existing calling code
that decides whether to call native_{read,write}_msr{,_safe}() based
on the return value from pmu_msr_{read,write}(). Consequently,
eliminate the need to pass an error pointer to pmu_msr_{read,write}().
While at it, refactor pmu_msr_write() to take the MSR value as a u64
argument, replacing the current dual u32 arguments, because the dual
u32 arguments were only used to call native_write_msr{,_safe}(), which
has now been removed.

However, __rdmsr() continues to be utilized in various locations.

the current MSR API names do not adequately reflect these factors,
making it challenging to select the most appropriate API for
various situations.
To pave the way for improving MSR API names, convert __rdmsr()

__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.

17 years ago, Venki suggested [1] "A future improvement would be to
avoid the range_is_allowed duplication".
The only thing preventing a common implementation is that
phys_mem_access_prot_allowed() expects the range check to exit
immediately when PAT is disabled [2]. I.e. there is no cache conflict to
manage in that case. This cleanup was noticed on the path to
considering changing range_is_allowed() policy to blanket deny /dev/mem
for private (confidential computing) memory.
Note, however that phys_mem_access_prot_allowed() has long since stopped
being relevant for managing cache-type validation due to [3], and [4].

When generating the MSR_IA32_PEBS_ENABLE value that will be loaded on
VM-Entry to a KVM guest, mask the value with the vCPU's desired PEBS_ENABLE
value. Consulting only the host kernel's host vs. guest masks results in
running the guest with PEBS enabled even when the guest doesn't want to use
PEBS. Because KVM uses perf events to proxy the guest virtual PMU, simply
looking at exclude_host can't differentiate between events created by host
userspace, and events created by KVM on behalf of the guest.
Running the guest with PEBS unexpectedly enabled typically manifests as
crashes due to a near-infinite stream of #PFs. E.g. if the guest hasn't
written MSR_IA32_DS_AREA, the CPU will hit page faults on address '0' when
trying to record PEBS events.
The issue is most easily reproduced by running `perf kvm top` from before
commit 7b100989b4 ("perf evlist: Remove __evlist__add_default") (after
which, `perf kvm top` effectively stopped using PEBS). The userspace side
of perf creates a guest-only PEBS event, which intel_guest_get_msrs()
misconstrues a guest-*owned* PEBS event.
Arguably, this is a userspace bug, as enabling PEBS on guest-only events
simply cannot work, and userspace can kill VMs in many other ways (there
is no danger to the host). However, even if this is considered to be bad
userspace behavior, there's zero downside to perf/KVM restricting PEBS to
guest-owned events.
Note, commit 854250329c ("KVM: x86/pmu: Disable guest PEBS temporarily
in two rare situations") fixed the case where host userspace is profiling
KVM *and* userspace, but missed the case where userspace is profiling only
KVM.

For VMX, when the currently loaded VMCS is changed in
vmx_vcpu_load_vmcs(), an IBPB is executed if there is no 'buddy', which
is the case on vCPU load. The intention is to execute an IBPB when
switching vCPUs, but not when switching the VMCS within the same vCPU.
Executing an IBPB on nested transitions within the same vCPU is handled
separately and conditionally in nested_vmx_vmexit().
For SVM, the current VMCB is tracked on vCPU load and an IBPB is
executed when it is changed. The intention is also to execute an IBPB
when switching vCPUs, although it is possible that in some cases an IBBP
is executed when switching VMCBs for the same vCPU. Executing an IBPB on
nested transitions should be handled separately, and is proposed at [1].
Unify the logic by tracking the last loaded vCPU and execuintg the IBPB
on vCPU change in kvm_arch_vcpu_load() instead. When a vCPU is
destroyed, make sure all references to it are removed from any CPU. This
is similar to how SVM clears the current_vmcb tracking on vCPU
destruction. Remove the current VMCB tracking in SVM as it is no longer
required, as well as the 'buddy' parameter to vmx_vcpu_load_vmcs().

Check request KVM_REQ_MMU_FREE_OBSOLETE_ROOTS to free obsolete roots in
kvm_mmu_reload() to prevent kvm_mmu_reload() from seeing a stale obsolete
root.
Since kvm_mmu_reload() can be called outside the
vcpu_enter_guest() path (e.g., kvm_arch_vcpu_pre_fault_memory()), it may be
invoked after a root has been marked obsolete and before vcpu_enter_guest()
is invoked to process KVM_REQ_MMU_FREE_OBSOLETE_ROOTS and set root.hpa to
invalid. This causes kvm_mmu_reload() to fail to load a new root, which
can lead to kvm_arch_vcpu_pre_fault_memory() being stuck in the while
loop in kvm_tdp_map_page() since RET_PF_RETRY is always returned due to
is_page_fault_stale().
Keep the existing check of KVM_REQ_MMU_FREE_OBSOLETE_ROOTS in
vcpu_enter_guest() since the cost of kvm_check_request() is negligible,
especially a check that's guarded by kvm_request_pending().
Export symbol of kvm_mmu_free_obsolete_roots() as kvm_mmu_reload() is
inline and may be called outside of kvm.ko.

Warn if PFN changes on shadow-present SPTE in mmu_set_spte().
KVM should _never_ change the PFN of a shadow-present SPTE. In
mmu_set_spte(), there is a WARN_ON_ONCE() on pfn changes on shadow-present
SPTE in mmu_spte_update() to detect this condition. However, that
WARN_ON_ONCE() is not hittable since mmu_set_spte() invokes drop_spte()
earlier before mmu_spte_update(), which clears SPTE to a !shadow-present
state. So, before invoking drop_spte(), add a WARN_ON_ONCE() in
mmu_set_spte() to warn PFN change of a shadow-present SPTE.
For the spurious prefetch fault, only return RET_PF_SPURIOUS directly when
PFN is not changed. When PFN changes, fall through to follow the sequence
of drop_spte(), warn of PFN change, make_spte(), flush tlb, rmap_add().

Instead of simply treating a prefetch fault as spurious when there's a
shadow-present old SPTE, further check if the old SPTE is leaf to determine
if a prefetch fault is spurious.
It's not reasonable to treat a prefetch fault as spurious when there's a
shadow-present non-leaf SPTE without a corresponding shadow-present leaf
SPTE. e.g., in the following sequence, a prefetch fault should not be
considered spurious:
1. add a memslot with size 4K
2. prefault GPA A in the memslot
3. delete the memslot (zap all disabled)
4. re-add the memslot with size 2M
5. prefault GPA A again.
In step 5, the prefetch fault attempts to install a 2M huge entry.
Since step 3 zaps the leaf SPTE for GPA A while keeping the non-leaf SPTE,
the leaf entry will remain empty after step 5 if the fetch fault is
regarded as spurious due to a shadow-present non-leaf SPTE.

Ensure the shadow VMCS cache is evicted during an emergency reboot to
prevent potential memory corruption if the cache is evicted after reboot.
This issue was identified through code inspection, as __loaded_vmcs_clear()
flushes both the normal VMCS and the shadow VMCS.
Avoid checking the "launched" state during an emergency reboot, unlike the
behavior in __loaded_vmcs_clear(). This is important because reboot NMIs
can interfere with operations like copy_shadow_to_vmcs12(), where shadow
VMCSes are loaded directly using VMPTRLD. In such cases, if NMIs occur
right after the VMCS load, the shadow VMCSes will be active but the
"launched" state may not be set.

Stop ignoring DEBUGCTL[5:2] on AMD CPUs and instead treat them as reserved.
KVM has never properly virtualized AMD's legacy PBi bits, but did allow
the guest (and host userspace) to set the bits. To avoid breaking guests
when running on CPUs with BusLockTrap, which redefined bit 2 to BLCKDB and
made bits 5:3 reserved, a previous KVM change ignored bits 5:3, e.g. so
that legacy guest software wouldn't inadvertently enable BusLockTrap or
hit a VMRUN failure due to setting reserved.
To allow for virtualizing BusLockTrap and whatever future features may use
bits 5:3, treat bits 5:2 as reserved (and hope that doing so doesn't break
any existing guests).

The use of the term "glue" in filenames is a Crypto API-ism that rarely
shows up elsewhere in lib/ or arch/*/lib/. I think adopting it there
was a mistake. The library just uses standard functions, so the amount
of code that could be considered "glue" is quite small. And while often
the C functions just wrap the assembly functions, there are also cases
like crc32c_arch() in arch/x86/lib/crc32-glue.c that blur the line by
in-lining the actual implementation into the C function. That's not
"glue code", but rather the actual code.
Therefore, let's drop "glue" from the filenames and instead use e.g.
crc32.c instead of crc32-glue.c.

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.

The counter backwards may be observed in the PMI handler when
counters-snapshotting some non-precise events in the freq mode.
For the non-precise events, it's possible the counters-snapshotting
records a positive value for an overflowed PEBS event. Then the HW
auto-reload mechanism reset the counter to 0 immediately. Because the
pebs_event_reset is cleared in the freq mode, which doesn't set the
PERF_X86_EVENT_AUTO_RELOAD.
In the PMI handler, 0 will be read rather than the positive value
recorded in the counters-snapshotting record.
The counters-snapshotting case has to be specially handled. Since the
event value has been updated when processing the counters-snapshotting
record, only needs to set the new period for the counter via
x86_pmu_set_period().

A warning in intel_pmu_lbr_counters_reorder() may be triggered by below
perf command.
perf record -e "{cpu-clock,cycles/call-graph="lbr"/}" -- sleep 1
It's because the group is mistakenly treated as a branch counter group.
The hw.flags of the leader are used to determine whether a group is a
branch counters group. However, the hw.flags is only available for a
hardware event. The field to store the flags is a union type. For a
software event, it's a hrtimer. The corresponding bit may be set if the
leader is a software event.
For a branch counter group and other groups that have a group flag
(e.g., topdown, PEBS counters snapshotting, and ACR), the leader must
be a X86 event. Check the X86 event before checking the flag.
The patch only fixes the issue for the branch counter group.
The following patch will fix the other groups.
There may be an alternative way to fix the issue by moving the hw.flags
out of the union type. It should work for now. But it's still possible
that the flags will be used by other types of events later. As long as
that type of event is used as a leader, a similar issue will be
triggered. So the alternative way is dropped.

Explicitly verify the MSR load/store list counts are below the advertised
limit as part of the initial consistency checks on the lists, so that code
that consumes the count doesn't need to worry about extreme edge cases.
Enforcing the limit during the initial checks fixes a flaw on 32-bit KVM
where a sufficiently high @count could lead to overflow:
arch/x86/kvm/vmx/nested.c:834 nested_vmx_check_msr_switch()
warn: potential user controlled sizeof overflow 'addr + count * 16' '0-u64max + 16-68719476720'

830 if (count == 0)
831 return 0;
832
833 if (!kvm_vcpu_is_legal_aligned_gpa(vcpu, addr, 16) ||
--> 834 !kvm_vcpu_is_legal_gpa(vcpu, (addr + count * sizeof(struct vmx_msr_entry) - 1)))
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
While the SDM doesn't explicitly state an illegal count results in VM-Fail,
the SDM states that exceeding the limit may result in undefined behavior.
I.e. the SDM gives hardware, and thus KVM, carte blanche to do literally
anything in response to a count that exceeds the "recommended" limit.
If the limit is exceeded, undefined processor behavior may result
(including a machine check during the VMX transition).
KVM already enforces the limit when processing the MSRs, i.e. already
signals a late VM-Exit Consistency Check for VM-Enter, and generates a
VMX Abort for VM-Exit. I.e. explicitly checking the limits simply means
KVM will signal VM-Fail instead of VM-Exit or VMX Abort.

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.

Rework KVM's processing of the PIR to use the same algorithm as posted
MSIs, i.e. to do READ(x4) => XCHG(x4) instead of (READ+XCHG)(x4). Given
KVM's long-standing, sub-optimal use of 32-bit accesses to the PIR, it's
safe to say far more thought and investigation was put into handling the
PIR for posted MSIs, i.e. there's no reason to assume KVM's existing
logic is meaningful, let alone superior.
Matching the processing done by posted MSIs will also allow deduplicating
the code between KVM and posted MSIs.

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.

Track whether or not at least one IRQ was found in PIR during the initial
loop to load PIR chunks from memory. Doing so generates slightly better
code (arguably) for processing the for-loop of XCHGs, especially for the
case where there are no pending IRQs.
Note, while PIR can be modified between the initial load and the XCHG, it
can only _gain_ new IRQs, i.e. there is no danger of a false positive due
to the final version of pir_copy[] being empty.
Opportunistically convert the boolean to an "unsigned long" and compute
the effective boolean result via bitwise-OR. Some compilers, e.g.
clang-14, need the extra "hint" to elide conditional branches.
Opportunistically rename the variable in anticipation of moving the PIR
accesses to a common helper that can be shared by posted MSIs and KVM.

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).

Advertise support for WRMSRNS (WRMSR non-serializing) to userspace if the
instruction is supported by the underlying CPU. From a virtualization
perspective, the only difference between WRMSRNS and WRMSR is that VM-Exits
due to WRMSRNS set EXIT_QUALIFICATION to '1'. WRMSRNS doesn't require a
new enabling control, shares the same basic exit reason, and behaves the
same as WRMSR with respect to MSR interception.
WRMSR and WRMSRNS use the same basic exit reason (see Appendix C). For
WRMSR, the exit qualification is 0, while for WRMSRNS it is 1.
Don't do anything different when emulating WRMSRNS vs. WRMSR, as KVM can't
do anything less, i.e. can't make emulation non-serializing. The
motivation for the guest to use WRMSRNS instead of WRMSR is to avoid
immediately serializing the CPU when the necessary serialization is
guaranteed by some other mechanism, i.e. WRMSRNS being fully serializing
isn't guest-visible, just less performant.

Rename the WRMSRNS instruction opcode macro so that it doesn't collide

will run afoul of the opcode macro.

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.

Commit 2e7eab8142 ("KVM: VMX: Execute IBPB on emulated VM-exit when
guest has IBRS") added an IBPB in the emulated VM-exit path on Intel to
properly virtualize IBRS by providing separate predictor modes for L1
and L2.
AMD requires similar handling, except when IbrsSameMode is enumerated by
the host CPU (which is the case on most/all AMD CPUs). With
IbrsSameMode, hardware IBRS is sufficient and no extra handling is
needed from KVM.
Generalize the handling in nested_vmx_vmexit() by moving it into a
generic function, add the AMD handling, and use it in
nested_svm_vmexit() too. The main reason for using a generic function is
to have a single place to park the huge comment about virtualizing IBRS.

Previously, commit ed129ec905 ("KVM: x86: forcibly leave nested mode
on vCPU reset") addressed an issue where a triple fault occurring in
nested mode could lead to use-after-free scenarios. However, the commit
did not handle the analogous situation for System Management Mode (SMM).
This omission results in triggering a WARN when KVM forces a vCPU INIT
after SHUTDOWN interception while the vCPU is in SMM. This situation was
reprodused using Syzkaller by:
1) Creating a KVM VM and vCPU
2) Sending a KVM_SMI ioctl to explicitly enter SMM
3) Executing invalid instructions causing consecutive exceptions and
eventually a triple fault
The issue manifests as follows:

Architecturally, INIT is blocked when the CPU is in SMM, hence KVM's WARN()
in kvm_vcpu_reset() to guard against KVM bugs, e.g. to detect improper
emulation of INIT. SHUTDOWN on SVM is a weird edge case where KVM needs to
do _something_ sane with the VMCB, since it's technically undefined, and
INIT is the least awful choice given KVM's ABI.
So, double down on stuffing INIT on SHUTDOWN, and force the vCPU out of
SMM to avoid any weirdness (and the WARN).

The GNU coreutils version of truncate, which is the original, accepts a
% prefix for the -s size argument which means the file in question
should be padded to a multiple of the given size. This is currently used
to pad the setup block of bzImage to a multiple of 4k before appending
the decompressor.
busybox reimplements truncate but does not support this idiom, and
therefore fails the build since commit
9c54baab44 ("x86/boot: Drop CRC-32 checksum and the build tool that generates it")
Since very little build code within the kernel depends on the 'truncate'
utility, work around this incompatibility by avoiding truncate altogether,
and relying on dd to perform the padding.

Restore an IRTE back to host control (remapped or posted MSI mode) if the
*new* GSI route prevents posting the IRQ directly to a vCPU, regardless of
the GSI routing type. Updating the IRTE if and only if the new GSI is an
MSI results in KVM leaving an IRTE posting to a vCPU.
The dangling IRTE can result in interrupts being incorrectly delivered to

e.g. if the VM is torn down, but the underlying host IRQ isn't freed.

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

Fix the Xen issue together with the not needed 8k allocation for a

objtool already struggles to identify jump tables correctly in non-PIC
code, where the idiom is something like
jmpq *table(,%idx,8)
and the table is a list of absolute addresses of jump targets.
When using -fPIC, both the table reference as well as the jump targets
are emitted in a RIP-relative manner, resulting in something like
leaq table(%rip), %tbl
movslq (%tbl,%idx,4), %offset
addq %offset, %tbl
jmpq *%tbl
and the table is a list of offsets of the jump targets relative to the
start of the entire table.
Considering that this sequence of instructions can be interleaved with
other instructions that have nothing to do with the jump table in
question, it is extremely difficult to infer the control flow by
deriving the jump targets from the indirect jump, the location of the
table and the relative offsets it contains.
So let's not bother and disable jump tables for code built with -fPIC
under arch/x86/boot/startup.

Move the SEV startup code into arch/x86/boot/startup/, where it will

GCC may ignore the __no_sanitize_address function attribute when
inlining, resulting in KASAN instrumentation in code tagged as
'noinstr'.
Move the SEV NMI handling code, which is noinstr, into a separate source
file so KASAN can be disabled on the whole file without losing coverage
of other SEV core code, once the startup code is split off from it too.

Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
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.

The mem_map[] is allocated up to the end of ZONE_HIGHMEM which is defined
by max_pfn.
The bug was introduced by this recent commit:
6faea3422e ("arch, mm: streamline HIGHMEM freeing")
Previously, freeing of high memory was also clamped to the end of
ZONE_HIGHMEM but after this change, memblock_free_all() tries to
free memory above the of ZONE_HIGHMEM as well and that causes
access to mem_map[] entries beyond the end of the memory map.
To fix this, discard the memory after max_pfn from memblock on
32-bit systems so that core MM would be aware only of actually
usable memory.

Communicating with the hypervisor using the shared GHCB page requires
clearing the C bit in the mapping of that page. When executing in the
context of the EFI boot services, the page tables are owned by the
firmware, and this manipulation is not possible.
So switch to a different API for accepting memory in SEV-SNP guests, one
which is actually supported at the point during boot where the EFI stub
may need to accept memory, but the SEV-SNP init code has not executed
yet.
For simplicity, also switch the memory acceptance carried out by the
decompressor when not booting via EFI - this only involves the
allocation for the decompressed kernel, and is generally only called
after kexec, as normal boot will jump straight into the kernel from the
EFI stub.

Erratum 1054 affects AMD Zen processors that are a part of Family 17h
Models 00-2Fh and the workaround is to not set HWCR[IRPerfEn]. However,
when X86_FEATURE_ZEN1 was introduced, the condition to detect unaffected
processors was incorrectly changed in a way that the IRPerfEn bit gets
set only for unaffected Zen 1 processors.
Ensure that HWCR[IRPerfEn] is set for all unaffected processors. This
includes a subset of Zen 1 (Family 17h Models 30h and above) and all
later processors. Also clear X86_FEATURE_IRPERF on affected processors
so that the IRPerfCount register is not used by other entities like the
MSR PMU driver.

Unlike L3 and DF counters, UMC counters (PERF_CTRs) set the Overflow bit
(bit 48) and saturate on overflow. A subsequent pmu->read() of the event
reports an incorrect accumulated count as there is no difference between
the previous and the current values of the counter.
To avoid this, inspect the current counter value and proactively reset
the corresponding PERF_CTR register on every pmu->read(). Combined with
the periodic reads initiated by the hrtimer, the counters never get a
chance saturate but the resolution reduces to 47 bits.

Introduce a module parameter for configuring the hrtimer duration in
milliseconds. The default duration is 60000 milliseconds and the intent
is to allow users to customize it to suit jitter tolerances. It should

Uncore counters do not provide mechanisms like interrupts to report
overflows and the accumulated user-visible count is incorrect if there
is more than one overflow between two successive read requests for the
same event because the value of prev_count goes out-of-date for
calculating the correct delta.
To avoid this, start a hrtimer to periodically initiate a pmu->read() of
the active counters for keeping prev_count up-to-date. It should be
noted that the hrtimer duration should be lesser than the shortest time
it takes for a counter to overflow for this approach to be effective.

hrtimer handlers can be deferred to softirq context and affect timely
detection of counter overflows. Hence switch to HRTIMER_MODE_HARD.
Disabling and re-enabling IRQs in the hrtimer handler is not required

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:

Add support to emulate all NOP instructions as the original uprobe
instruction.
This change speeds up uprobe on top of all NOP instructions and is a
preparation for usdt probe optimization, that will be done on top of
NOP5 instructions.
With this change the usdt probe on top of NOP5s won't take the performance
hit compared to usdt probe on top of standard NOP instructions.

First, just expand the PREALLOCATED_PMDS macro in place to make it
clear that it is only conditional on PTI.
Second, MAX_PREALLOCATED_PMDS is only used in one spot for an

with the macro MAX() magic. Just set it to 4.

Each mm_struct has its own copy of the page tables. When core mm code
makes changes to a copy of the page tables those changes sometimes
need to be synchronized with other mms' copies of the page tables. But
when this synchronization actually needs to happen is highly
architecture and configuration specific.
In cases where kernel PMDs are shared across processes
(SHARED_KERNEL_PMD) the core mm does not itself need to do that
synchronization for kernel PMD changes. The x86 code communicates
this by clearing the PGTBL_PMD_MODIFIED bit cleared in those
configs to avoid expensive synchronization.
The kernel is moving toward never sharing kernel PMDs on 32-bit.
Prepare for that and make 32-bit PAE always set PGTBL_PMD_MODIFIED,
even if there is no modification to synchronize. This obviously adds
some synchronization overhead in cases where the kernel page tables
are being changed.

Kernel PMDs can either be shared across processes or private to a
process. On 64-bit, they are always shared. 32-bit non-PAE hardware
does not have PMDs, but the kernel logically squishes them into the
PGD and treats them as private. Here are the four cases:
64-bit: Shared
32-bit: non-PAE: Private
32-bit: PAE+ PTI: Private
32-bit: PAE+noPTI: Shared
Note that 32-bit is all "Private" except for PAE+noPTI being an
oddball. The 32-bit+PAE+noPTI case will be made like the rest of
32-bit shortly.
But until that can be done, temporarily treat the 32-bit+PAE+noPTI
case as Private. This will do unnecessary walks across pgd_list and
unnecessary PTE setting but should be otherwise harmless.

A hardware PAE PGD is only 32 bytes. A PGD is PAGE_SIZE in the other
paging modes. But for reasons*, the kernel _sometimes_ allocates a
whole page even though it only ever uses 32 bytes.
Make PAE less weird. Just allocate a page like the other paging modes.
This was already being done for PTI (and Xen in the past) and nobody
screamed that loudly about it so it can't be that bad.
* The original reason for PAGE_SIZE allocations for the PAE PGDs was
Xen's need to detect page table writes. But 32-bit PTI forced it too
for reasons I'm unclear about.

The CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=y warning in switch_mm_irqs_off() started
triggering in testing:
VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(prev != &init_mm && !cpumask_test_cpu(cpu, mm_cpumask(prev)));
AFAIU what happens is that unuse_temporary_mm() clears the mm_cpumask()
for the current CPU, while switch_mm_irqs_off() then checks that the
mm_cpumask() bit is set for the current CPU.
While this behaviour hasn't really changed since the following commit:
209954cbc7 ("x86/mm/tlb: Update mm_cpumask lazily")
introduced both, but the warning is wrong, so remove it.

Currently when a user samples user space GPRs (--user-regs option) with
PEBS, the user space GPRs actually always come from software PMI
instead of from PEBS hardware. This leads to the sampled GPRs to
possibly be inaccurate for single PEBS record case because of the
skid between counter overflow and GPRs sampling on PMI.
For the large PEBS case, it is even worse. If user sets the
exclude_kernel attribute, large PEBS would be used to sample user space
GPRs, but since PEBS GPRs group is not really enabled, it leads to all
samples in the large PEBS record to share the same piece of user space
GPRs, like this reproducer shows:
$ perf record -e branches:pu --user-regs=ip,ax -c 100000 ./foo
$ perf report -D | grep "AX"
.... AX 0x000000003a0d4ead
.... AX 0x000000003a0d4ead
.... AX 0x000000003a0d4ead
.... AX 0x000000003a0d4ead
.... AX 0x000000003a0d4ead
.... AX 0x000000003a0d4ead
.... AX 0x000000003a0d4ead
.... AX 0x000000003a0d4ead
.... AX 0x000000003a0d4ead
.... AX 0x000000003a0d4ead
.... AX 0x000000003a0d4ead
So enable GPRs group for user space GPRs sampling and prioritize reading
GPRs from PEBS. If the PEBS sampled GPRs is not user space GPRs (single
PEBS record case), perf_sample_regs_user() modifies them to user space
GPRs.

than simply updating the buffer that already holds the value. Thus, this
approach induces an unnecessary dependency on XGETBV1 for PKRU handling.
Eliminate the dependency by using the established helper function.
Subsequently, remove the now-unused 'mask' argument.

XSTATE components are architecturally independent. There is no rule
requiring their offsets in the non-compacted format to be strictly
ascending or mutually non-overlapping. However, in practice, such
overlaps have not occurred -- until now.
APX is introduced as xstate component 19, following AMX. In the
non-compacted XSAVE format, its offset overlaps with the space previously
occupied by the now-deprecated MPX feature:
45fc24e89b ("x86/mpx: remove MPX from arch/x86")
To prevent conflicts, the kernel must ensure the CPU never expose both
features at the same time. If so, it indicates unreliable hardware. In
such cases, XSAVE should be disabled entirely as a precautionary measure.
Add a sanity check to detect this condition and disable XSAVE if an
invalid hardware configuration is identified.
Note: MPX state components remain enabled on legacy systems solely for
KVM guest support.

Intel Advanced Performance Extensions (APX) introduce a new set of
general-purpose registers, managed as an extended state component via the
xstate management facility.
Before enabling this new xstate, define a feature flag to clarify the
dependency in xsave_cpuid_features[]. APX is enumerated under CPUID level
7 with EDX=1. Since this CPUID leaf is not yet allocated, place the flag
in a scattered feature word.
While this feature is intended only for userspace, exposing it via
/proc/cpuinfo is unnecessary. Instead, the existing arch_prctl(2)
mechanism with the ARCH_GET_XCOMP_SUPP option can be used to query the
feature availability.
Finally, clarify that APX depends on XSAVE.

Following the example of the crc32, crc32c, and chacha code, make the
crypto subsystem register both generic and architecture-optimized
poly1305 shash algorithms, both implemented on top of the appropriate
library functions. This eliminates the need for every architecture to
implement the same shash glue code.
Note that the poly1305 shash requires that the key be prepended to the
data, which differs from the library functions where the key is simply a
parameter to poly1305_init(). Previously this was handled at a fairly
low level, polluting the library code with shash-specific code.
Reorganize things so that the shash code handles this quirk itself.
Also, to register the architecture-optimized shashes only when
architecture-optimized code is actually being used, add a function
poly1305_is_arch_optimized() and make each arch implement it. Change
each architecture's Poly1305 module_init function to arch_initcall so
that the CPU feature detection is guaranteed to run before
poly1305_is_arch_optimized() gets called by crypto/poly1305.c. (In
cases where poly1305_is_arch_optimized() just returns true
unconditionally, using arch_initcall is not strictly needed, but it's
still good to be consistent across architectures.)

__x86_init_fpu_begin = .;
. = __x86_init_fpu_begin + 128*PAGE_SIZE;
__x86_init_fpu_end = .;
But the init task isn't supposed to be using the FPU context

As Linus noted in the discussion, the init task (and other
PF_KTHREAD tasks) *can* use the FPU via kernel_fpu_begin()/_end(),
but they don't need the context area because their FPU use is not

Turn thread.fpu into a pointer. Since most FPU code internals work by passing
around the FPU pointer already, the code generation impact is small.
This allows us to remove the old kludge of task_struct being variable size:
struct task_struct {
...
/*
* New fields for task_struct should be added above here, so that
* they are included in the randomized portion of task_struct.
*/
randomized_struct_fields_end
/* CPU-specific state of this task: */
struct thread_struct thread;
/*
* WARNING: on x86, 'thread_struct' contains a variable-sized
* structure. It *MUST* be at the end of 'task_struct'.
*
* Do not put anything below here!
*/
};
... which creates a number of problems, such as requiring thread_struct to be
the last member of the struct - not allowing it to be struct-randomized, etc.
But the primary motivation is to allow the decoupling of task_struct from
hardware details (<asm/processor.h> in particular), and to eventually allow
the per-task infrastructure:
DECLARE_PER_TASK(type, name);
...
per_task(current, name) = val;
... which requires task_struct to be a constant size struct.
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.

== Background ==
As feature positions in the userspace XSAVE buffer do not always align
with their feature numbers, the XSAVE format conversion needs to be
reconsidered to align with the revised xstate size calculation logic.
* For signal handling, XSAVE and XRSTOR are used directly to save and
restore extended registers.
* For ptrace, KVM, and signal returns (for 32-bit frame), the kernel
copies data between its internal buffer and the userspace XSAVE buffer.
If memcpy() were used for these cases, existing offset helpers — such
as __raw_xsave_addr() or xstate_offsets[] — would be sufficient to
handle the format conversion.
== Problem ==
When copying data from the compacted in-kernel buffer to the
non-compacted userspace buffer, the function follows the
user_regset_get2_fn() prototype. This means it utilizes struct membuf
helpers for the destination buffer. As defined in regset.h, these helpers
update the memory pointer during the copy process, enforcing sequential
writes within the loop.
Since xstate components are processed sequentially, any component whose
buffer position does not align with its feature number has an issue.
== Solution ==
Replace for_each_extended_xfeature() with the newly introduced
for_each_extended_xfeature_in_order(). This macro ensures xstate
components are handled in the correct order based on their actual
positions in the destination buffer, rather than their feature numbers.

The current xstate size calculation assumes that the highest-numbered
xstate feature has the highest offset in the buffer, determining the size
based on the topmost bit in the feature mask. However, this assumption is
not architecturally guaranteed -- higher-numbered features may have lower
offsets.
With the introduction of the xfeature order table and its helper macro,
xstate components can now be traversed in their positional order. Update
the non-compacted format handling to iterate through the table to
determine the last-positioned feature. Then, set the offset accordingly.
Since size calculation primarily occurs during initialization or in
non-critical paths, looping to find the last feature is not expected to
have a meaningful performance impact.

The kernel has largely assumed that higher xstate component numbers
correspond to later offsets in the buffer. However, this assumption no
longer holds for the non-compacted format, where a newer state component
may have a lower offset.
When iterating over xstate components in offset order, using the feature
number as an index may be misleading. At the same time, the CPU exposes
each component’s size and offset based on its feature number, making it a
key for state information.
To provide flexibility in handling xstate ordering, introduce a mapping
table: feature order -> feature number. The table is dynamically
populated based on the CPU-exposed features and is sorted in offset order
at boot time.
Additionally, add an accessor macro to facilitate sequential traversal of
xstate components based on their actual buffer positions, given a feature
bitmask. This accessor macro will be particularly useful for computing
custom non-compacted format sizes and iterating over xstate offsets in
non-compacted buffers.

Traditionally, new xstate components have been assigned sequentially,
aligning feature numbers with their offsets in the XSAVE buffer. However,
this ordering is not architecturally mandated in the non-compacted
format, where a component's offset may not correspond to its feature
number.
The kernel caches CPUID-reported xstate component details, including size
and offset in the non-compacted format. As part of this process, a sanity
check is also conducted to ensure alignment between feature numbers and
offsets.
This check was likely intended as a general guideline rather than a
strict requirement. Upcoming changes will support out-of-order offsets.
Remove the check as becoming obsolete.

Since objtool's inception, frame pointer warnings have been manually
silenced for __arch_hweight*() to allow those functions' inline asm to
avoid using ASM_CALL_CONSTRAINT.
The potentially dubious reasoning for that decision over nine years ago
was that since !X86_FEATURE_POPCNT is exceedingly rare, it's not worth
hurting the code layout for a function call that will never happen on
the vast majority of systems.
However, those functions actually started using ASM_CALL_CONSTRAINT with
the following commit:
194a613088 ("x86/hweight: Use ASM_CALL_CONSTRAINT in inline asm()")
And rightfully so, as it makes the code correct. ASM_CALL_CONSTRAINT
will soon have no effect for non-FP configs anyway.
With ASM_CALL_CONSTRAINT in place, ANNOTATE_IGNORE_ALTERNATIVE no longer
has a purpose for the hweight functions. Remove it.

Prepare for splitting off parts of the SEV core.c source file into a
file that carries code that must tolerate being called from the early
1:1 mapping. This will allow special build-time handling of thise code,
to ensure that it gets generated in a way that is compatible with the
early execution context.
So create a de-facto internal SEV API and put the definitions into
sev-internal.h. No attempt is made to allow this header file to be
included in arbitrary other sources - this is explicitly not the intent.

RIP_REL_REF() is used in non-PIC C code that is called very early,
before the kernel virtual mapping is up, which is the mapping that the
linker expects. It is currently used in two different ways:
- to refer to the value of a global variable, including as an lvalue in
assignments;
- to take the address of a global variable via the mapping that the code
currently executes at.
The former case is only needed in non-PIC code, as PIC code will never
use absolute symbol references when the address of the symbol is not
being used. But taking the address of a variable in PIC code may still
require extra care, as a stack allocated struct assignment may be
emitted as a memcpy() from a statically allocated copy in .rodata.
For instance, this
void startup_64_setup_gdt_idt(void)
{
struct desc_ptr startup_gdt_descr = {
.address = (__force unsigned long)gdt_page.gdt,
.size = GDT_SIZE - 1,
};
may result in an absolute symbol reference in PIC code, even though the
struct is allocated on the stack and populated at runtime.
To address this case, make rip_rel_ptr() accessible in PIC code, and
update any existing uses where the address of a global variable is
taken using RIP_REL_REF.
Once all code of this nature has been moved into arch/x86/boot/startup
and built with -fPIC, RIP_REL_REF() can be retired, and only
rip_rel_ptr() will remain.

When decoding an instruction or handling a perf event that references an
LDT segment, if we don't have a valid user context, trying to access the
LDT by any means other than SLDT is racy. Certainly, using
current->active_mm is wrong, as active_mm can point to a real user mm when
CR3 and LDTR no longer reference that mm.
Clean up the code. If nmi_uaccess_okay() says we don't have a valid
context, just fail. Otherwise use current->mm.

Hypercall detection is failing with xen_hypercall_intel() chosen even on
an AMD processor. Looking at the disassembly, the call to
xen_get_vendor() was removed.
The check for boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_CPUID) was used as a proxy for
the x86_vendor having been set.
When CONFIG_X86_REQUIRED_FEATURE_CPUID=y (the default value), DCE eliminates
the call to xen_get_vendor(). An uninitialized value 0 means
X86_VENDOR_INTEL, so the Intel function is always returned.
Remove the if and always call xen_get_vendor() to avoid this issue.

At this point we are always working out of an uptodate
text_poke_array, there's no need for smp_text_poke_int3_handler()
to read via the int3_vec indirection - remove it.
This simplifies the code:

struct text_poke_array is an equivalent structure to these global variables:
static struct smp_text_poke_loc tp_vec[TP_VEC_MAX];
static int tp_vec_nr;
Note that we intentionally mirror much of the naming of
'struct text_poke_int3_vec', which will further highlight
the unecessary layering going on in this code, and will
ease its removal.
No change in functionality.

At this point the 'tp' input parameter must always be the
global 'tp_vec' array, and 'nr_entries' must always be equal
to 'tp_vec_nr'.
Assert these conditions - which will allow the removal of
a layer of indirection between these values.

at this point.

There's this weird hack used by smp_text_poke_batch_finish() to indicate
a 'forced flush':
smp_text_poke_batch_flush(NULL);
Just open-code the vector-flush in a straightforward fashion:
smp_text_poke_batch_process(tp_vec, tp_vec_nr);
tp_vec_nr = 0;
And get rid of !addr hack from text_poke_addr_ordered().
Leave a WARN_ON_ONCE(), just in case some external code learned
to rely on this behavior.

tp_order_fail() uses inverted logic: it returns true in case something
is false, which is only a plus at the IOCCC.
Instead rename it to regular parity as 'text_poke_addr_ordered()',
and adjust the code accordingly.
Also add a comment explaining how the address ordering should be
understood.

It's possible to escape the text_mutex-held assert in
smp_text_poke_batch_process() if the caller uses a properly
batched and sorted series of patch requests, so add
an explicit lockdep_assert_held() to make sure it's
held by all callers.
All text_poke_int3_*() APIs will call either smp_text_poke_batch_process()
or smp_text_poke_batch_flush() internally.
The text_mutex must be held, because tp_vec and tp_vec_nr et al
are all globals, and the INT3 patching machinery itself relies on
external serialization.

So the temp_mm_state_t abstraction used by use_temporary_mm() and
unuse_temporary_mm() is super confusing:
- The whole machinery is about temporarily switching to the
text_poke_mm utility MM that got allocated during bootup
for text-patching purposes alone:
temp_mm_state_t prev;
/*
* Loading the temporary mm behaves as a compiler barrier, which
* guarantees that the PTE will be set at the time memcpy() is done.
*/
prev = use_temporary_mm(text_poke_mm);
- Yet the value that gets saved in the temp_mm_state_t variable
is not the temporary MM ... but the previous MM...
- Ie. we temporarily put the non-temporary MM into a variable
that has the temp_mm_state_t type. This makes no sense whatsoever.
- The confusion continues in unuse_temporary_mm():
static inline void unuse_temporary_mm(temp_mm_state_t prev_state)
Here we unuse an MM that is ... not the temporary MM, but the
previous MM. :-/
Fix up all this confusion by removing the unnecessary layer of
abstraction and using a bog-standard 'struct mm_struct *prev_mm'
variable to save the MM to.

eBPF programs can be run 50,000,000 times per second on busy servers.
Whenever /proc/sys/kernel/bpf_stats_enabled is turned off,
hundreds of calls sites are patched from text_poke_bp_batch()
and we see a huge loss of performance due to false sharing
on bp_desc.refs lasting up to three seconds.
51.30% server_bin [kernel.kallsyms] [k] poke_int3_handler

|--46.45%--poke_int3_handler

| | __dev_queue_xmit
| | ip6_finish_output2
| | ip6_output
| | ip6_xmit
| | inet6_csk_xmit
| | __tcp_transmit_skb
Fix this by replacing bp_desc.refs with a per-cpu bp_refs.
Before the patch, on a host with 240 cores (480 threads):
$ sysctl -wq kernel.bpf_stats_enabled=0
text_poke_bp_batch(nr_entries=164) : Took 2655300 usec
$ bpftool prog | grep run_time_ns
...
105: sched_cls name hn_egress tag 699fc5eea64144e3 gpl run_time_ns
3009063719 run_cnt 82757845 : average cost is 36 nsec per call
After this patch:
$ sysctl -wq kernel.bpf_stats_enabled=0
text_poke_bp_batch(nr_entries=164) : Took 702 usec
$ bpftool prog | grep run_time_ns
...
105: sched_cls name hn_egress tag 699fc5eea64144e3 gpl run_time_ns
1928223019 run_cnt 67682728 : average cost is 28 nsec per call
Ie. text-patching performance improved 3700x: from 2.65 seconds
to 0.0007 seconds.
Since the atomic_cond_read_acquire(refs, !VAL) spin-loop was not triggered
even once in my tests, add an unlikely() annotation, because this appears
to be the common case.

There's a lockdep false positive warning related to i8253_lock:

...
Lockdep complains due pit_timer_init() using the lock in an IRQ-unsafe
fashion, but it's a false positive, because there is no deadlock
possible at that point due to init ordering: at the point where
pit_timer_init() is called there is no other possible usage of
i8253_lock because the system is still in the very early boot stage
with no interrupts.
But in any case, pit_timer_init() should disable interrupts before
calling clockevent_i8253_disable() out of general principle, and to
keep lockdep working even in this scenario.
Use scoped_guard() for that, as suggested by Thomas Gleixner.

This supports the same 32-bit MMIO-mapped 8250 as the early_printk code.
It's not clear why the early_printk code supports this form and only this
form; the actual runtime 8250_pci doesn't seem to support it. But having
hacked up QEMU to expose such a device, early_printk does work with it,
and now so does the kexec debug code.

There are 4 wariants of initmem_init(), for 32 and 64 bits and for
CONFIG_NUMA enabled and disabled.
After commit bbeb69ce30 ("x86/mm: Remove CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G support")
NUMA is not supported on 32 bit kernels anymore, and
arch/x86/mm/numa_32.c can be just deleted and setup_bootmem_allocator()
with completely misleading name can be folded into initmem_init().
For 64 bits the NUMA variant calls x86_numa_init() and !NUMA variant
sets all memory to node 0. The later can be split out into inline helper
called x86_numa_init() and then both initmem_init() functions become the
same.
Split out memblock_set_node() from initmem_init() for !NUMA on 64 bit
into x86_numa_init() helper and remove arch/x86/mm/numa_*.c that only
contained initmem_init() variants for NUMA configs.

This works around what seems to be an optimization bug in GCC (at least
13.3.0), where it predicts access_ok() to fail despite the hint to the
contrary.
_copy_to_user() contains:
if (access_ok(to, n)) {
instrument_copy_to_user(to, from, n);
n = raw_copy_to_user(to, from, n);
}
Where access_ok() is likely(__access_ok(addr, size)), yet the compiler
emits conditional jumps forward for the case where it succeeds:
<+0>: endbr64
<+4>: mov %rdx,%rcx
<+7>: mov %rdx,%rax
<+10>: xor %edx,%edx
<+12>: add %rdi,%rcx
<+15>: setb %dl
<+18>: movabs $0x123456789abcdef,%r8
<+28>: test %rdx,%rdx
<+31>: jne 0xffffffff81b3b7c6 <_copy_to_user+38>
<+33>: cmp %rcx,%r8
<+36>: jae 0xffffffff81b3b7cb <_copy_to_user+43>

<+57>: nop
<+58>: nop
<+59>: nop
<+60>: jmp 0xffffffff822673e0 <__x86_return_thunk>
Patching _copy_to_user() to likely() around the access_ok() use does
not change the asm.
However, spelling out the prediction *within* valid_user_address() does the
trick:
<+0>: endbr64
<+4>: xor %eax,%eax
<+6>: mov %rdx,%rcx
<+9>: add %rdi,%rdx
<+12>: setb %al
<+15>: movabs $0x123456789abcdef,%r8
<+25>: test %rax,%rax
<+28>: jne 0xffffffff81b315e6 <_copy_to_user+54>

<+35>: nop

<+54>: mov %rcx,%rax
<+57>: jmp 0xffffffff82255ba0 <__x86_return_thunk>
Since we kinda expect valid_user_address() to be likely anyway,
add the likely() annotation that also happens to work around
this compiler bug.

Todd reported, and Len confirmed, that commit 582077c940 ("x86/cfi:
Clean up linkage") broke S4 hiberate on a fair number of machines.
Turns out these machines trip #CP when trying to restore the image.
As it happens, the commit in question removes two ENDBR instructions
in the hibernate code, and clearly got it wrong.
Notably restore_image() does an indirect jump to
relocated_restore_code(), which is a relocated copy of
core_restore_code().
In turn, core_restore_code(), will at the end do an indirect jump to
restore_jump_address (r8), which is pointing at a relocated
restore_registers().
So both sites do indeed need to be ENDBR.

Complete the AMD CPUID(4) emulation logic, which uses CPUID(0x80000006)
for L2/L3 cache info and an assocs[] associativity mapping array, by
adding entries for 3-way caches and 6-way caches.
Properly handle the case where CPUID(0x80000006) returns an L2/L3
associativity of 9. This is not real associativity, but a marker to
indicate that the respective L2/L3 cache information should be retrieved
from CPUID(0x8000001d) instead. If such a marker is encountered, return
early from legacy_amd_cpuid4(), thus effectively emulating an "invalid
index" CPUID(4) response with a cache type of zero.
When checking if CPUID(0x80000006) L2/L3 cache info output is valid, and
given the associtivity marker 9 above, do not just check if the whole
ECX/EDX register is zero. Rather, check if the associativity is zero or
9. An associativity of zero implies no L2/L3 cache, which make it the
more correct check anyway vs. a zero check of the whole output register.

For the AMD CPUID(4) emulation cache info logic, the same associativity
mapping array, assocs[], is used for both CPUID(0x80000005) and
CPUID(0x80000006).
This is incorrect since per the AMD manuals, the mappings for
CPUID(0x80000005) L1d/L1i associativity is:
n = 0x1 -> 0xfe n
n = 0xff fully associative
while assocs[] maps these values to:
n = 0x1, 0x2, 0x4 n
n = 0x3, 0x7, 0x9 0
n = 0x6 8
n = 0x8 16
n = 0xa 32
n = 0xb 48
n = 0xc 64
n = 0xd 96
n = 0xe 128
n = 0xf fully associative
which is only valid for CPUID(0x80000006).
Parse CPUID(0x80000005) L1d/L1i associativity values as shown in the AMD
manuals. Since the 0xffff literal is used to denote full associativity
at the AMD CPUID(4)-emulation logic, define AMD_CPUID4_FULLY_ASSOCIATIVE
for it instead of spreading that literal in more places.
Mark the assocs[] mapping array as only valid for CPUID(0x80000006) L2/L3
cache information.

This change alters the PowerPC and x86 driver implementations to record
the last sample period before the event is updated for the next period.
A common pattern in PMU driver implementations is to have a
"*_event_set_period" function which takes care of updating the various
period-related fields in a perf_event structure. In most cases, the
drivers choose to call this function after initializing a sample data
structure with perf_sample_data_init. The x86 and PowerPC drivers
deviate from this, choosing to update the period before initializing the
sample data. When using an event with an alternate sample period, this
causes an incorrect period to be written to the sample data that gets
reported to userspace.

IBPB is expected to clear the RSB. However, if X86_BUG_IBPB_NO_RET is

'x86_pred_cmd' in order to use SBPB when applicable:

First of all, using 'mmio' prevents proper implementation of 8-bit accessors.
Second, it's simply inconsistent with uart8250 set of options. Rename it to
'mmio32'. While at it, remove rather misleading comment in the documentation.
From now on mmio32 is self-explanatory and pciserial supports not only 32-bit
MMIO accessors.
Also, while at it, fix the comment for the "pciserial" case. The comment
seems to be a copy'n'paste error when mentioning "serial" instead of
"pciserial" (with double quotes). Fix this.

The relative rates among two or more events are useful for performance
analysis, e.g., a high branch miss rate may indicate a performance
issue. Usually, the samples with a relative rate that exceeds some
threshold are more useful. However, the traditional sampling takes
samples of events separately. To get the relative rates among two or
more events, a high sample rate is required, which can bring high
overhead. Many samples taken in the non-hotspot area are also dropped
(useless) in the post-process.
The auto counter reload (ACR) feature takes samples when the relative
rate of two or more events exceeds some threshold, which provides the
fine-grained information at a low cost.
To support the feature, two sets of MSRs are introduced. For a given
counter IA32_PMC_GPn_CTR/IA32_PMC_FXm_CTR, bit fields in the
IA32_PMC_GPn_CFG_B/IA32_PMC_FXm_CFG_B MSR indicate which counter(s)
can cause a reload of that counter. The reload value is stored in the
IA32_PMC_GPn_CFG_C/IA32_PMC_FXm_CFG_C.
The details can be found at Intel SDM (085), Volume 3, 21.9.11 Auto
Counter Reload.
In the hw_config(), an ACR event is specially configured, because the
cause/reloadable counter mask has to be applied to the dyn_constraint.
Besides the HW limit, e.g., not support perf metrics, PDist and etc, a
SW limit is applied as well. ACR events in a group must be contiguous.
It facilitates the later conversion from the event idx to the counter
idx. Otherwise, the intel_pmu_acr_late_setup() has to traverse the whole
event list again to find the "cause" event.
Also, add a new flag PERF_X86_EVENT_ACR to indicate an ACR group, which
is set to the group leader.
The late setup() is also required for an ACR group. It's to convert the
event idx to the counter idx, and saved it in hw.config1.
The ACR configuration MSRs are only updated in the enable_event().
The disable_event() doesn't clear the ACR CFG register.
Add acr_cfg_b/acr_cfg_c in the struct cpu_hw_events to cache the MSR
values. It can avoid a MSR write if the value is not changed.
Expose an acr_mask to the sysfs. The perf tool can utilize the new
format to configure the relation of events in the group. The bit
sequence of the acr_mask follows the events enabled order of the group.
Example:
Here is the snippet of the mispredict.c. Since the array has a random
numbers, jumps are random and often mispredicted.
The mispredicted rate depends on the compared value.
For the Loop1, ~11% of all branches are mispredicted.
For the Loop2, ~21% of all branches are mispredicted.
main()
{
...
for (i = 0; i < N; i++)
data[i] = rand() % 256;
...
/* Loop 1 */
for (k = 0; k < 50; k++)
for (i = 0; i < N; i++)
if (data[i] >= 64)
sum += data[i];
...
...
/* Loop 2 */
for (k = 0; k < 50; k++)
for (i = 0; i < N; i++)
if (data[i] >= 128)
sum += data[i];
...
}
Usually, a code with a high branch miss rate means a bad performance.
To understand the branch miss rate of the codes, the traditional method
usually samples both branches and branch-misses events. E.g.,
perf record -e "{cpu_atom/branch-misses/ppu, cpu_atom/branch-instructions/u}"
-c 1000000 -- ./mispredict
[ perf record: Woken up 4 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.925 MB perf.data (5106 samples) ]
The 5106 samples are from both events and spread in both Loops.
In the post-process stage, a user can know that the Loop 2 has a 21%
branch miss rate. Then they can focus on the samples of branch-misses
events for the Loop 2.
With this patch, the user can generate the samples only when the branch
miss rate > 20%. For example,
perf record -e "{cpu_atom/branch-misses,period=200000,acr_mask=0x2/ppu,
cpu_atom/branch-instructions,period=1000000,acr_mask=0x3/u}"
-- ./mispredict
(Two different periods are applied to branch-misses and
branch-instructions. The ratio is set to 20%.
If the branch-instructions is overflowed first, the branch-miss
rate < 20%. No samples should be generated. All counters should be
automatically reloaded.
If the branch-misses is overflowed first, the branch-miss rate > 20%.
A sample triggered by the branch-misses event should be
generated. Just the counter of the branch-instructions should be
automatically reloaded.
The branch-misses event should only be automatically reloaded when
the branch-instructions is overflowed. So the "cause" event is the
branch-instructions event. The acr_mask is set to 0x2, since the
event index in the group of branch-instructions is 1.
The branch-instructions event is automatically reloaded no matter which
events are overflowed. So the "cause" events are the branch-misses
and the branch-instructions event. The acr_mask should be set to 0x3.)
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]

The auto counter reload feature requires an event flag to indicate an
auto counter reload group, which can only be scheduled on specific
counters that enumerated in CPUID. However, the hw_perf_event.flags has
run out on X86.
Two solutions were considered to address the issue.
- Currently, 20 bits are reserved for the architecture-specific flags.
Only the bit 31 is used for the generic flag. There is still plenty
of space left. Reserve 8 more bits for the arch-specific flags.
- Add a new X86 specific hw_perf_event.flags1 to support more flags.
The former is implemented. Enough room is still left in the global
generic flag.

When a machine supports PEBS v6, perf unconditionally searches the
cpuc->event_list[] for every event and check if the late setup is
required, which is unnecessary.
The late setup is only required for special events, e.g., events support
counters snapshotting feature. Add n_late_setup to track the num of
events that needs the late setup.
Other features, e.g., auto counter reload feature, require the late
setup as well. Add a wrapper, intel_pmu_pebs_late_setup, for the events
that support counters snapshotting feature.

More and more features require a dynamic event constraint, e.g., branch
counter logging, auto counter reload, Arch PEBS, etc.
Add a generic flag, PMU_FL_DYN_CONSTRAINT, to indicate the case. It
avoids keeping adding the individual flag in intel_cpuc_prepare().
Add a variable dyn_constraint in the struct hw_perf_event to track the
dynamic constraint of the event. Apply it if it's updated.
Apply the generic dynamic constraint for branch counter logging.
Many features on and after V6 require dynamic constraint. So
unconditionally set the flag for V6+.

When running as a PVH dom0 the ACPI tables exposed to Linux are (mostly)
the native ones, thus exposing the C and P states, that can lead to
attachment of CPU idle and frequency drivers. However the entity in
control of the CPU C and P states is Xen, as dom0 doesn't have a full view
of the system load, neither has all CPUs assigned and identity pinned.
Like it's done for classic PV guests, prevent Linux from using idle or
frequency state drivers when running as a PVH dom0.
On an AMD EPYC 7543P system without this fix a Linux PVH dom0 will keep the
host CPUs spinning at 100% even when dom0 is completely idle, as it's
attempting to use the acpi_idle driver.

Move platform initialization of SEV/SNP from CCP driver probe time to
KVM module load time so that KVM can do SEV/SNP platform initialization
explicitly if it actually wants to use SEV/SNP functionality.
Add support for KVM to explicitly call into the CCP driver at load time
to initialize SEV/SNP. If required, this behavior can be altered with KVM
module parameters to not do SEV/SNP platform initialization at module load
time. Additionally, a corresponding SEV/SNP platform shutdown is invoked
during KVM module unload time.
Continue to support SEV deferred initialization as the user may have the

Objtool uses an arbitrary rule for INSN_SYSCALL and INSN_SYSRET that
almost works by accident: if it's in a function, control flow continues
after the instruction, otherwise it terminates.
That behavior should instead be based on the semantics of the underlying
instruction. Change INSN_SYSCALL to always preserve control flow and
INSN_SYSRET to always terminate it.
The changed semantic for INSN_SYSCALL requires a tweak to the
!CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION version of xen_entry_SYSCALL_compat(). In Xen,
SYSCALL is a hypercall which usually returns. But in this case it's a
hypercall to IRET which doesn't return. Add UD2 to tell objtool to
terminate control flow, and to prevent undefined behavior at runtime.

While debugging kexec/hibernation hangs and crashes, it turned out that
the current implementation of e820__register_nosave_regions() suffers from
multiple serious issues:
- The end of last region is tracked by PFN, causing it to find holes
that aren't there if two consecutive subpage regions are present
- The nosave PFN ranges derived from holes are rounded out (instead of
rounded in) which makes it inconsistent with how explicitly reserved
regions are handled
Fix this by:
- Treating reserved regions as if they were holes, to ensure consistent
handling (rounding out nosave PFN ranges is more correct as the
kernel does not use partial pages)
- Tracking the end of the last RAM region by address instead of pages
to detect holes more precisely
These bugs appear to have been introduced about ~18 years ago with the very
first version of e820_mark_nosave_regions(), and its flawed assumptions were
carried forward uninterrupted through various waves of rewrites and renames.

Xen disables ACPI for PV guests in DomU, which causes acpi_mps_check() to
return 1 when CONFIG_X86_MPPARSE is not set. As a result, the local APIC is
disabled and the guest is later limited to a single vCPU, despite being
configured with more.
This regression was introduced in version 6.9 in commit 7c0edad364
("x86/cpu/topology: Rework possible CPU management"), which added an
early check that limits CPUs to 1 if apic_is_disabled.
Update the acpi_mps_check() logic to return 0 early when running as a Xen
PV guest in DomU, preventing APIC from being disabled in this specific case
and restoring correct multi-vCPU behaviour.

This large commit contains the initial support for TDX in KVM. All x86
parts enable the host-side hypercalls that KVM uses to talk to the TDX
module, a software component that runs in a special CPU mode called SEAM
(Secure Arbitration Mode).
The series is in turn split into multiple sub-series, each with a separate
merge commit:
- Initialization: basic setup for using the TDX module from KVM, plus
ioctls to create TDX VMs and vCPUs.
- MMU: in TDX, private and shared halves of the address space are mapped by
different EPT roots, and the private half is managed by the TDX module.
Using the support that was added to the generic MMU code in 6.14,
add support for TDX's secure page tables to the Intel side of KVM.
Generic KVM code takes care of maintaining a mirror of the secure page
tables so that they can be queried efficiently, and ensuring that changes
are applied to both the mirror and the secure EPT.
- vCPU enter/exit: implement the callbacks that handle the entry of a TDX
vCPU (via the SEAMCALL TDH.VP.ENTER) and the corresponding save/restore
of host state.
- Userspace exits: introduce support for guest TDVMCALLs that KVM forwards to
userspace. These correspond to the usual KVM_EXIT_* "heavyweight vmexits"
but are triggered through a different mechanism, similar to VMGEXIT for
SEV-ES and SEV-SNP.
- Interrupt handling: support for virtual interrupt injection as well as
handling VM-Exits that are caused by vectored events. Exclusive to
TDX are machine-check SMIs, which the kernel already knows how to
handle through the kernel machine check handler (commit 7911f145de,
"x86/mce: Implement recovery for errors in TDX/SEAM non-root mode")
- Loose ends: handling of the remaining exits from the TDX module, including
EPT violation/misconfig and several TDVMCALL leaves that are handled in
the kernel (CPUID, HLT, RDMSR/WRMSR, GetTdVmCallInfo); plus returning
an error or ignoring operations that are not supported by TDX guests

PVH dom0 re-uses logic from PV dom0, in which RAM ranges not assigned to
dom0 are re-used as scratch memory to map foreign and grant pages. Such
logic relies on reporting those unpopulated ranges as RAM to Linux, and
mark them as reserved. This way Linux creates the underlying page
structures required for metadata management.
Such approach works fine on PV because the initial balloon target is
calculated using specific Xen data, that doesn't take into account the
memory type changes described above. However on HVM and PVH the initial
balloon target is calculated using get_num_physpages(), and that function
does take into account the unpopulated RAM regions used as scratch space
for remote domain mappings.
This leads to PVH dom0 having an incorrect initial balloon target, which
causes malfunction (excessive memory freeing) of the balloon driver if the
dom0 memory target is later adjusted from the toolstack.
Fix this by using xen_released_pages to account for any pages that are part
of the memory map, but are already unpopulated when the balloon driver is
initialized. This accounts for any regions used for scratch remote
mappings. Note on x86 xen_released_pages definition is moved to
enlighten.c so it's uniformly available for all Xen-enabled builds.
Take the opportunity to unify PV with PVH/HVM guests regarding the usage of
get_num_physpages(), as that avoids having to add different logic for PV vs
PVH in both balloon_add_regions() and arch_xen_unpopulated_init().
Much like a6aa4eb994, the code in this changeset should have been part of
38620fc4e8.

Following the example of the crc32 and crc32c code, make the crypto
subsystem register both generic and architecture-optimized chacha20,
xchacha20, and xchacha12 skcipher algorithms, all implemented on top of
the appropriate library functions. This eliminates the need for every
architecture to implement the same skcipher glue code.
To register the architecture-optimized skciphers only when
architecture-optimized code is actually being used, add a function
chacha_is_arch_optimized() and make each arch implement it. Change each
architecture's ChaCha module_init function to arch_initcall so that the
CPU feature detection is guaranteed to run before
chacha_is_arch_optimized() gets called by crypto/chacha.c. In the case
of s390, remove the CPU feature based module autoloading, which is no
longer needed since the module just gets pulled in via function linkage.

Optimize the AVX-512 version of _compute_first_set_of_tweaks by using
vectorized shifts to compute the first vector of tweak blocks, and by
using byte-aligned shifts when multiplying by x^8.
AES-XTS performance on AMD Ryzen 9 9950X (Zen 5) improves by about 2%
for 4096-byte messages or 6% for 512-byte messages. AES-XTS performance
on Intel Sapphire Rapids improves by about 1% for 4096-byte messages or
3% for 512-byte messages. Code size decreases by 75 bytes which
outweighs the increase in rodata size of 16 bytes.

Stop wrapping skcipher and aead algorithms with the crypto SIMD helper
(crypto/simd.c). The only purpose of doing so was to work around x86
not always supporting kernel-mode FPU in softirqs. Specifically, if a
hardirq interrupted a task context kernel-mode FPU section and then a
softirqs were run at the end of that hardirq, those softirqs could not
use kernel-mode FPU. This has now been fixed. In combination with the
fact that the skcipher and aead APIs only support task and softirq
contexts, these can now just use kernel-mode FPU unconditionally on x86.
This simplifies the code and improves performance.

Intel made a late change to the AVX10 specification that removes support
for a 256-bit maximum vector length and enumeration of the maximum
vector length. AVX10 will imply a maximum vector length of 512 bits.
I.e. there won't be any such thing as AVX10/256 or AVX10/512; there will
just be AVX10, and it will essentially just consolidate AVX512 features.
As a result of this new development, my strategy of providing both
*_avx10_256 and *_avx10_512 functions didn't turn out to be that useful.
The only remaining motivation for the 256-bit AVX512 / AVX10 functions
is to avoid downclocking on older Intel CPUs. But in the case of
AES-XTS and AES-CTR, I already wrote *_avx2 code too (primarily to
support CPUs without AVX512), which performs almost as well as
*_avx10_256. So we should just use that.
Therefore, remove the *_avx10_256 AES-XTS and AES-CTR functions and
algorithms, and rename the *_avx10_512 AES-XTS and AES-CTR functions and
algorithms to *_avx512. Make Ice Lake and Tiger Lake use *_avx2 instead
of *_avx10_256 which they previously used.
I've left AES-GCM unchanged for now. There is no VAES+AVX2 optimized
AES-GCM in the kernel yet, so the path forward for that is not as clear.
However, I did write a VAES+AVX2 optimized AES-GCM for BoringSSL. So
one option is to port that to the kernel and then do the same cleanup.

So move the EFI mixed mode startup code back, and put it under

The 5-level paging trampoline is used by both the EFI stub and the
traditional decompressor. Move it out of the decompressor sources into
the newly minted arch/x86/boot/startup/ sub-directory which will hold
startup code that may be shared between the decompressor, the EFI stub
and the kernel proper, and needs to tolerate being called during early
boot, before the kernel virtual mapping has been created.
This will allow the 5-level paging trampoline to be used by EFI boot
images such as zboot that omit the traditional decompressor entirely.

LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR is calculated as an aligned (up) CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START
with the respective alignment value CONFIG_PHYSICAL_ALIGN. However,
the code is written openly while we have __ALIGN_KERNEL_MASK() macro
that does the same. This macro has nothing special, that's why
it may be used in assembler code or linker scripts (on the contrary
__ALIGN_KERNEL() may not). Do it so.

Naming interrupt domains host is confusing at best and the irqdomain code

Use a separate subclass when acquiring KVM's per-CPU posted interrupts
wakeup lock in the scheduled out path, i.e. when adding a vCPU on the list
of vCPUs to wake, to workaround a false positive deadlock.
Chain exists of:
&p->pi_lock --> &rq->__lock --> &per_cpu(wakeup_vcpus_on_cpu_lock, cpu)
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(&per_cpu(wakeup_vcpus_on_cpu_lock, cpu));
lock(&rq->__lock);
lock(&per_cpu(wakeup_vcpus_on_cpu_lock, cpu));
lock(&p->pi_lock);
*** DEADLOCK ***
In the wakeup handler, the callchain is *always*:
sysvec_kvm_posted_intr_wakeup_ipi()
|
--> pi_wakeup_handler()
|
--> kvm_vcpu_wake_up()
|
--> try_to_wake_up(),
and the lock order is:
&per_cpu(wakeup_vcpus_on_cpu_lock, cpu) --> &p->pi_lock.
For the schedule out path, the callchain is always (for all intents and
purposes; if the kernel is preemptible, kvm_sched_out() can be called from
something other than schedule(), but the beginning of the callchain will
be the same point in vcpu_block()):
vcpu_block()
|
--> schedule()
|
--> kvm_sched_out()
|
--> vmx_vcpu_put()
|
--> vmx_vcpu_pi_put()
|
--> pi_enable_wakeup_handler()
and the lock order is:
&rq->__lock --> &per_cpu(wakeup_vcpus_on_cpu_lock, cpu)
I.e. lockdep sees AB+BC ordering for schedule out, and CA ordering for
wakeup, and complains about the A=>C versus C=>A inversion. In practice,
deadlock can't occur between schedule out and the wakeup handler as they
are mutually exclusive. The entirely of the schedule out code that runs
with the problematic scheduler locks held, does so with IRQs disabled,
i.e. can't run concurrently with the wakeup handler.
Use a subclass instead disabling lockdep entirely, and tell lockdep that
both subclasses are being acquired when loading a vCPU, as the sched_out
and sched_in paths are NOT mutually exclusive, e.g.
CPU 0 CPU 1
--------------- ---------------
vCPU0 sched_out
vCPU1 sched_in
vCPU1 sched_out vCPU 0 sched_in
where vCPU0's sched_in may race with vCPU1's sched_out, on CPU 0's wakeup
list+lock.

Assert that IRQs are already disabled when putting a vCPU on a CPU's PI
wakeup list, as opposed to saving/disabling+restoring IRQs. KVM relies on
IRQs being disabled until the vCPU task is fully scheduled out, i.e. until
the scheduler has dropped all of its per-CPU locks (e.g. for the runqueue),
as attempting to wake the task while it's being scheduled out could lead
to deadlock.

Wrap the TDP MMU page counter in CONFIG_KVM_PROVE_MMU so that the sanity
check is omitted from production builds, and more importantly to remove
the atomic accesses to account pages. A one-off memory leak in production
is relatively uninteresting, and a WARN_ON won't help mitigate a systemic
issue; it's as much about helping triage memory leaks as it is about
detecting them in the first place, and doesn't magically stop the leaks.
I.e. production environments will be quite sad if a severe KVM bug escapes,
regardless of whether or not KVM WARNs.

Acquire a lock on kvm->srcu when userspace is getting MP state to handle a
rather extreme edge case where "accepting" APIC events, i.e. processing
pending INIT or SIPI, can trigger accesses to guest memory. If the vCPU
is in L2 with INIT *and* a TRIPLE_FAULT request pending, then getting MP
state will trigger a nested VM-Exit by way of ->check_nested_events(), and
emuating the nested VM-Exit can access guest memory.
The splat was originally hit by syzkaller on a Google-internal kernel, and
reproduced on an upstream kernel by hacking the triple_fault_event_test
selftest to stuff a pending INIT, store an MSR on VM-Exit (to generate a
memory access on VMX), and do vcpu_mp_state_get() to trigger the scenario.

Replace the byte-wise specification of MONITOR and
MWAIT with these proper mnemonics.
No functional change intended.
Note: LLVM assembler is not able to assemble correct forms of MONITOR
and MWAIT instructions with explicit operands and reports:
error: invalid operand for instruction

- a new ASID and
- the need to flush the TLB or not,
in a struct which fits in a single 32-bit register and whack the IO

Beyond being easier to read, this also helps the compiler generate
better, more compact code:

There is not much point in CONFIG_AS_TPAUSE at all when the emitted
assembly is always the same - it only obfuscates the __tpause() code
in essence.
Remove the TPAUSE insn mnemonic from __tpause() and leave only
the equivalent byte-wise definition. This can then be changed
back to insn mnemonic once binutils 2.31.1 is the minimum version
to build the kernel. (Right now it's 2.25.)

Delimiters in asm() templates such as ';', '\t' or '\n' are not
required syntactically, they were used historically in the Linux
kernel to prettify the compiler's .s output for people who were
looking at compiler generated .s output.
Most x86 developers these days are primarily looking at:
1) objdump --disassemble-all .o
2) perf top's live kernel function annotation and disassembler
feature that uses /dev/mem.
... because:
- this kind of assembler output is standardized regardless of
compiler used,
- it's generally less messy looking,
- it gives ground-truth instead of being some intermediate layer
in the toolchain that might or might not be the real deal,
- and on a live kernel it also sees through the kernel's various
layers of runtime patching code obfuscation facilities, also
known as: alternative-instructions, tracepoints and jump labels.
There are some cases where the .s output is the most useful
tool, such as alternatives() code generation, but other than
that these delimiters used in simple asm() statements mostly
add noise to the source code side, which isn't desirable for
assembly code that is fragile enough already.
Remove the delimiters for <asm/mwait.h>, which also happens to
make the GCC inliner's asm() instruction length heuristics
more accurate...

MONITOR and MONITORX expect 32-bit unsigned integer arguments in the %ecx
and %edx registers. MWAIT and MWAITX expect 32-bit usigned int
argument in %eax and %ecx registers.
Some of the helpers around these instructions in <asm/mwait.h> are using
too wide types (long), standardize on u32 instead that makes it clear that
this is a hardware ABI.

The following commit, 12 years ago:
7e98b71920 ("x86, idle: Use static_cpu_has() for CLFLUSH workaround, add barriers")
added barriers around the CLFLUSH in mwait_idle_with_hints(), justified with:
... and add memory barriers around it since the documentation is explicit
that CLFLUSH is only ordered with respect to MFENCE.
This also triggered, 11 years ago, the same adjustment in:
f8e617f458 ("sched/idle/x86: Optimize unnecessary mwait_idle() resched IPIs")
during development, although it failed to get the static_cpu_has_bug() treatment.
X86_BUG_CLFLUSH_MONITOR (a.k.a the AAI65 errata) is specific to Intel CPUs,
and the SDM currently states:
Executions of the CLFLUSH instruction are ordered with respect to each
other and with respect to writes, locked read-modify-write instructions,
and fence instructions[1].
With footnote 1 reading:
Earlier versions of this manual specified that executions of the CLFLUSH
instruction were ordered only by the MFENCE instruction. All processors
implementing the CLFLUSH instruction also order it relative to the other
operations enumerated above.
i.e. The SDM was incorrect at the time, and barriers should not have been
inserted. Double checking the original AAI65 errata (not available from
intel.com any more) shows no mention of barriers either.
Note: If this were a general codepath, the MFENCEs would be needed, because
AMD CPUs of the same vintage do sport otherwise-unordered CLFLUSHs.
Remove the unnecessary barriers. Furthermore, use a plain alternative(),
rather than static_cpu_has_bug() and/or no optimisation. The workaround
is a single instruction.
Use an explicit %rax pointer rather than a general memory operand, because
MONITOR takes the pointer implicitly in the same way.

Pull x86 TDX updates from Dave Hansen:
"Avoid direct HLT instruction execution in TDX guests.
TDX guests aren't expected to use the HLT instruction directly. It
causes a virtualization exception (#VE). While the #VE _can_ be
handled, the current handling is slow and buggy and the easiest thing
is just to avoid HLT in the first place. Plus, the kernel already has
paravirt infrastructure that makes it relatively painless.
Make TDX guests require paravirt and add some TDX-specific paravirt
handlers which avoid HLT in the normal halt routines. Also add a
warning in case another HLT sneaks in.
There was a report that this leads to a "major performance
improvement" on specjbb2015, probably because of the extra #VE
overhead or missed wakeups from the buggy HLT handling"

The prefetchw() dates back decades and the fundamental notion of doing
something like this on a lock is shady.
Moreover, for a few years now in the fast path faults are handled with RCU
+ per-vma locking, hopefully not even looking at the lock to begin with.
As such just remove it.
I did not see a point benchmarking this. Given that it is not expected
to be looked at by default justifies not doing the prefetch.

Upon a wakeup from S4, the restore kernel starts and initializes the
FRED MSRs as needed from its perspective. It then loads a hibernation
image, including the image kernel, and attempts to load image pages
directly into their original page frames used before hibernation unless
those frames are currently in use. Once all pages are moved to their
original locations, it jumps to a "trampoline" page in the image kernel.
At this point, the image kernel takes control, but the FRED MSRs still
contain values set by the restore kernel, which may differ from those
set by the image kernel before hibernation. Therefore, the image kernel
must ensure the FRED MSRs have the same values as before hibernation.
Since these values depend only on the location of the kernel text and
data, they can be recomputed from scratch.

recently moved the sysctl handling of panic_on_unrecovered_nmi and
panic_on_io_nmi to x86-specific code. These variables no longer need to
be declared in the generic header file.
Relocate the variable definitions and declarations closer to where they

The unknown_nmi_panic variable is used to control whether the kernel
should panic on unknown NMIs. There is a sysctl entry under:
/proc/sys/kernel/unknown_nmi_panic
which can be used to change the behavior at runtime.
However, it seems that in some places, the option unnecessarily depends
on CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC. Other code in nmi.c uses unknown_nmi_panic
without such a dependency. This results in a few messy #ifdefs
splattered across the code. The dependency was likely introduce due to a
potential build bug reported a long time ago:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/40BC67F9.3000609@myrealbox.com/
This build bug no longer exists.
Also, similar NMI panic options, such as panic_on_unrecovered_nmi and
panic_on_io_nmi, do not have an explicit dependency on the local APIC
either.
Though, it's hard to imagine a production system without the local APIC
configuration, making a specific NMI sysctl option dependent on it
doesn't make sense.
Remove the explicit dependency between unknown NMI handling and the
local APIC to make the code cleaner and more consistent.
While at it, reorder the header includes to maintain alphabetical order.

Here is the big set of driver core updates for 6.15-rc1. Lots of stuff
happened this development cycle, including:
- kernfs scaling changes to make it even faster thanks to rcu
- bin_attribute constify work in many subsystems
- faux bus minor tweaks for the rust bindings
- rust binding updates for driver core, pci, and platform busses,
making more functionaliy available to rust drivers. These are all
due to people actually trying to use the bindings that were in 6.14.
- make Rafael and Danilo full co-maintainers of the driver core
codebase
- other minor fixes and updates.
This has been in linux-next for a while now, with the only reported
issue being some merge conflicts with the rust tree. Depending on which
tree you pull first, you will have conflicts in one of them. The merge
resolution has been in linux-next as an example of what to do, or can be
found here:

reported. In all cases the calling code was founf to be incorrect.
- The 4 patch series "Some cleanup for memcg" from Chen Ridong
implements some relatively monir cleanups for the memcontrol code.
- The 17 patch series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)"

how many threads should be used to allocate huge pages" from Thomas
Prescher does that. It allows the careful operator to significantly
reduce boot time by tuning the parallalization of huge page
initialization.

for cgwb" from Tang Yizhou fixes the tracing output from the dirty page
balancing code.

and reject filters. Behaviour is made more consistent and the
documention is updated accordingly.
- The 5 patch series "Switch zswap to object read/write APIs" from Yosry
Ahmed updates zswap to the new object read/write APIs and thus permits
the removal of some legacy code from zpool and zsmalloc.

from Zi Yan reworks the code to split a folio into smaller folios. The
main benefit is lessened memory consumption: fewer post-split folios are
generated.
- The 2 patch series "Minimize xa_node allocation during xarry split"
from Zi Yan reduces the number of xarray xa_nodes which are generated
during an xarray split.

Shuai has observed in the memory-failure implementation.
- The 5 patch series "mm: reliable huge page allocator" from Johannes
Weiner makes huge page allocations cheaper and more reliable by reducing
fragmentation.
- The 5 patch series "Minor memcg cleanups & prep for memdescs" from
Matthew Wilcox is preparatory work for the future implementation of
memdescs.

pages" from Nhat Pham permits users to filter for active/inactive pages,
separately for file and anon pages.
- The 2 patch series "Adding Proactive Memory Reclaim Statistics" from
Hao Jia separates the proactive reclaim statistics from the direct
reclaim statistics.
- The 2 patch series "mm/vmscan: don't try to reclaim hwpoison folio"
from Jinjiang Tu fixes our handling of hwpoisoned pages within the
reclaim code.

As Bert Karwatzki reported, the following recent commit causes a
performance regression on AMD iGPU and dGPU systems:
7ffb791423 ("x86/kaslr: Reduce KASLR entropy on most x86 systems")
It exposed a bug with nokaslr and zone device interaction.
The root cause of the bug is that, the GPU driver registers a zone
device private memory region. When KASLR is disabled or the above commit
is applied, the direct_map_physmem_end is set to much higher than 10 TiB
typically to the 64TiB address. When zone device private memory is added
to the system via add_pages(), it bumps up the max_pfn to the same
value. This causes dma_addressing_limited() to return true, since the
device cannot address memory all the way up to max_pfn.
This caused a regression for games played on the iGPU, as it resulted in
the DMA32 zone being used for GPU allocations.
Fix this by not bumping up max_pfn on x86 systems, when pgmap is passed
into add_pages(). The presence of pgmap is used to determine if device
private memory is being added via add_pages().
More details:
devm_request_mem_region() and request_free_mem_region() request for
device private memory. iomem_resource is passed as the base resource
with start and end parameters. iomem_resource's end depends on several
factors, including the platform and virtualization. On x86 for example
on bare metal, this value is set to boot_cpu_data.x86_phys_bits.
boot_cpu_data.x86_phys_bits can change depending on support for MKTME.
By default it is set to the same as log2(direct_map_physmem_end) which
is 46 to 52 bits depending on the number of levels in the page table.
The allocation routines used iomem_resource's end and
direct_map_physmem_end to figure out where to allocate the region.
[ arch/powerpc is also impacted by this problem, but this patch does not fix
the issue for PowerPC. ]
Testing:
1. Tested on a virtual machine with test_hmm for zone device inseration
2. A previous version of this patch was tested by Bert, please see:

It turns out the code to generate the x86 cpufeaturemasks.h header was
way too aggressive, and would re-generate it whenever the timestamp on
the kernel config file changed.
Now, the regular 'make *config' tools are fairly careful to not rewrite
the kernel config file unless the contents change, but other usecases
aren't that careful.
Michael Kelley reports that 'make-kpkg' ends up doing "make syncconfig"
multiple times in prepping to build, and will modify the config file in
the process (and then modify it back, but by then the timestamps have
changed).
Jakub Kicinski reports that the netdev CI does something similar in how
it generates the config file in multiple steps.
In both cases, the config file timestamp updates then cause the
cpufeaturemasks.h file to be regenerated, and that in turn then causes
lots of unnecessary rebuilds due to all the normal dependencies.
Fix it by using our 'filechk' infrastructure in the Makefile to generate
the header file. That will only write a new version of the file if the
contents of the file have actually changed.

- Use RCU instead of RCU-sched
The mix of rcu_read_lock(), rcu_read_lock_sched() and preempt_disable()
in the module code and its users has been replaced with just
rcu_read_lock().
- The rest of changes are smaller fixes and updates.
The changes have been on linux-next for at least 2 weeks, with the RCU
cleanup present for 2 months. One performance problem was reported with the
RCU change when KASAN + lockdep were enabled, but it was effectively
addressed by the already merged ee57ab5a32 ("locking/lockdep: Disable
KASAN instrumentation of lockdep.c").

Pull bpf relisient spinlock support from Alexei Starovoitov:
"This patch set introduces Resilient Queued Spin Lock (or rqspinlock
with res_spin_lock() and res_spin_unlock() APIs).
This is a qspinlock variant which recovers the kernel from a stalled
state when the lock acquisition path cannot make forward progress.
This can occur when a lock acquisition attempt enters a deadlock
situation (e.g. AA, or ABBA), or more generally, when the owner of the
lock (which we’re trying to acquire) isn’t making forward progress.
Deadlock detection is the main mechanism used to provide instant
recovery, with the timeout mechanism acting as a final line of
defense. Detection is triggered immediately when beginning the waiting
loop of a lock slow path.
Additionally, BPF programs attached to different parts of the kernel
can introduce new control flow into the kernel, which increases the
likelihood of deadlocks in code not written to handle reentrancy.
There have been multiple syzbot reports surfacing deadlocks in
internal kernel code due to the diverse ways in which BPF programs can
be attached to different parts of the kernel. By switching the BPF
subsystem’s lock usage to rqspinlock, all of these issues are
mitigated at runtime.
This spin lock implementation allows BPF maps to become safer and
remove mechanisms that have fallen short in assuring safety when
nesting programs in arbitrary ways in the same context or across
different contexts.
We run benchmarks that stress locking scalability and perform
comparison against the baseline (qspinlock). For the rqspinlock case,
we replace the default qspinlock with it in the kernel, such that all
spin locks in the kernel use the rqspinlock slow path. As such,
benchmarks that stress kernel spin locks end up exercising rqspinlock.

After commit c104c16073 ("Kunit to check the longest symbol length"),
there is a warning when building with clang because there is now a
definition of unlikely from compiler.h in tools/include/linux, which
conflicts with the one in the instruction decoder selftest:
arch/x86/tools/insn_decoder_test.c:15:9: warning: 'unlikely' macro redefined [-Wmacro-redefined]
Remove the second unlikely() definition, as it is no longer necessary,
clearing up the warning.

History of the performance regression:
======================================
Since the following series of user copy updates were merged upstream
~2 years ago via:
a562456643 ("Merge branch 'x86-rep-insns': x86 user copy clarifications")
.. copy_user_generic() on x86_64 stopped doing alignment of the
writes to the destination to a 8 byte boundary for the non FSRM case.
Previously, this was done through the ALIGN_DESTINATION macro that
was used in the now removed copy_user_generic_unrolled function.
Turns out this change causes some loss of performance/throughput on
some use cases and specific CPU/platforms without FSRM and ERMS.
Lately I got two reports of performance/throughput issues after a
RHEL 9 kernel pulled the same upstream series with updates to user
copy functions. Both reports consisted of running specific
networking/TCP related testing using iperf3.
Partial upstream fix
====================
The first report was related to a Linux Bridge testing using VMs on a
specific machine with an AMD CPU (EPYC 7402), and after a brief
investigation it turned out that the later change via:
ca96b162bf ("x86: bring back rep movsq for user access on CPUs without ERMS")
... helped/fixed the performance issue.
However, after the later commit/fix was applied, then I got another
regression reported in a multistream TCP test on a 100Gbit mlx5 nic, also
running on an AMD based platform (AMD EPYC 7302 CPU), again that was using
iperf3 to run the test. That regression was after applying the later
fix/commit, but only this didn't help in telling the whole history.
Testing performed to pinpoint residual regression
=================================================
So I narrowed down the second regression use case, but running it
without traffic through a NIC, on localhost, in trying to narrow down
CPU usage and not being limited by other factor like network bandwidth.
I used another system also with an AMD CPU (AMD EPYC 7742). Basically,
I run iperf3 in server and client mode in the same system, for example:
- Start the server binding it to CPU core/thread 19:
$ taskset -c 19 iperf3 -D -s -B 127.0.0.1 -p 12000
- Start the client always binding/running on CPU core/thread 17, using
perf to get statistics:
$ perf stat -o stat.txt taskset -c 17 iperf3 -c 127.0.0.1 -b 0/1000 -V \
-n 50G --repeating-payload -l 16384 -p 12000 --cport 12001 2>&1 \
> stat-19.txt
For the client, always running/pinned to CPU 17. But for the iperf3 in
server mode, I did test runs using CPUs 19, 21, 23 or not pinned to any
specific CPU. So it basically consisted with four runs of the same
commands, just changing the CPU which the server is pinned, or without
pinning by removing the taskset call before the server command. The CPUs
were chosen based on NUMA node they were on, this is the relevant output
of lscpu on the system:
$ lscpu
...
Model name: AMD EPYC 7742 64-Core Processor
...
Caches (sum of all):
L1d: 2 MiB (64 instances)
L1i: 2 MiB (64 instances)
L2: 32 MiB (64 instances)
L3: 256 MiB (16 instances)
NUMA:
NUMA node(s): 4
NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0,1,8,9,16,17,24,25,32,33,40,41,48,49,56,57,64,65,72,73,80,81,88,89,96,97,104,105,112,113,120,121
NUMA node1 CPU(s): 2,3,10,11,18,19,26,27,34,35,42,43,50,51,58,59,66,67,74,75,82,83,90,91,98,99,106,107,114,115,122,123
NUMA node2 CPU(s): 4,5,12,13,20,21,28,29,36,37,44,45,52,53,60,61,68,69,76,77,84,85,92,93,100,101,108,109,116,117,124,125
NUMA node3 CPU(s): 6,7,14,15,22,23,30,31,38,39,46,47,54,55,62,63,70,71,78,79,86,87,94,95,102,103,110,111,118,119,126,127
...
So for the server run, when picking a CPU, I chose CPUs to be not on the same
node. The reason is with that I was able to get/measure relevant
performance differences when changing the alignment of the writes to the
destination in copy_user_generic.
Testing shows up to +81% performance improvement under iperf3
=============================================================
Here's a summary of the iperf3 runs:
# Vanilla upstream alignment:
CPU RATE SYS TIME sender-receiver
Server bind 19: 13.0Gbits/sec 28.371851000 33.233499566 86.9%-70.8%
Server bind 21: 12.9Gbits/sec 28.283381000 33.586486621 85.8%-69.9%
Server bind 23: 11.1Gbits/sec 33.660190000 39.012243176 87.7%-64.5%
Server bind none: 18.9Gbits/sec 19.215339000 22.875117865 86.0%-80.5%
# With the attached patch (aligning writes in non ERMS/FSRM case):
CPU RATE SYS TIME sender-receiver
Server bind 19: 20.8Gbits/sec 14.897284000 20.811101382 75.7%-89.0%
Server bind 21: 20.4Gbits/sec 15.205055000 21.263165909 75.4%-89.7%
Server bind 23: 20.2Gbits/sec 15.433801000 21.456175000 75.5%-89.8%
Server bind none: 26.1Gbits/sec 12.534022000 16.632447315 79.8%-89.6%
So I consistently got better results when aligning the write. The
results above were run on 6.14.0-rc6/rc7 based kernels. The sys is sys
time and then the total time to run/transfer 50G of data. The last
field is the CPU usage of sender/receiver iperf3 process. It's also
worth to note that each pair of iperf3 runs may get slightly different
results on each run, but I always got consistent higher results with
the write alignment for this specific test of running the processes
on CPUs in different NUMA nodes.
Linus Torvalds helped/provided this version of the patch. Initially I
proposed a version which aligned writes for all cases in
rep_movs_alternative, however it used two extra registers and thus
Linus provided an enhanced version that only aligns the write on the
large_movsq case, which is sufficient since the problem happens only
on those AMD CPUs like ones mentioned above without ERMS/FSRM, and
also doesn't require using extra registers. Also, I validated that
aligning only on large_movsq case is really enough for getting the
performance back.
I also tested this patch on an old Intel based non-ERMS/FRMS system
(with Xeon E5-2667 - Sandy Bridge based) and didn't get any problems:
no performance enhancement but also no regression either, using the
same iperf3 based benchmark. Also newer Intel processors after
Sandy Bridge usually have ERMS and should not be affected by this change.

Direct HLT instruction execution causes #VEs for TDX VMs which is routed
to hypervisor via TDCALL. safe_halt() routines execute HLT in STI-shadow
so IRQs need to remain disabled until the TDCALL to ensure that pending
IRQs are correctly treated as wake events.
Emit warning and fail emulation if IRQs are enabled during HLT #VE handling
to avoid running into scenarios where IRQ wake events are lost resulting in
indefinite HLT execution times.

Direct HLT instruction execution causes #VEs for TDX VMs which is routed
to hypervisor via TDCALL. If HLT is executed in STI-shadow, resulting #VE
handler will enable interrupts before TDCALL is routed to hypervisor
leading to missed wakeup events, as current TDX spec doesn't expose
interruptibility state information to allow #VE handler to selectively
enable interrupts.
Commit bfe6ed0c67 ("x86/tdx: Add HLT support for TDX guests")
prevented the idle routines from executing HLT instruction in STI-shadow.
But it missed the paravirt routine which can be reached via this path
as an example:
kvm_wait() =>
safe_halt() =>
raw_safe_halt() =>
arch_safe_halt() =>
irq.safe_halt() =>
pv_native_safe_halt()
To reliably handle arch_safe_halt() for TDX VMs, introduce explicit
dependency on CONFIG_PARAVIRT and override paravirt halt()/safe_halt()
routines with TDX-safe versions that execute direct TDCALL and needed
interrupt flag updates. Executing direct TDCALL brings in additional
benefit of avoiding HLT related #VEs altogether.
As tested by Ryan Afranji:
"Tested with the specjbb2015 benchmark. It has heavy lock contention which leads
to many halt calls. TDX VMs suffered a poor score before this patchset.
Verified the major performance improvement with this patchset applied."

CONFIG_PARAVIRT_XXL is mainly defined/used by XEN PV guests. For
other VM guest types, features supported under CONFIG_PARAVIRT
are self sufficient. CONFIG_PARAVIRT mainly provides support for
TLB flush operations and time related operations.
For TDX guest as well, paravirt calls under CONFIG_PARVIRT meets
most of its requirement except the need of HLT and SAFE_HLT
paravirt calls, which is currently defined under
CONFIG_PARAVIRT_XXL.
Since enabling CONFIG_PARAVIRT_XXL is too bloated for TDX guest
like platforms, move HLT and SAFE_HLT paravirt calls under
CONFIG_PARAVIRT.
Moving HLT and SAFE_HLT paravirt calls are not fatal and should not
break any functionality for current users of CONFIG_PARAVIRT.

Another set of improvements to the kernel's CRC (cyclic redundancy
check) code:
- Rework the CRC64 library functions to be directly optimized, like what
I did last cycle for the CRC32 and CRC-T10DIF library functions.
- Rewrite the x86 PCLMULQDQ-optimized CRC code, and add VPCLMULQDQ
support and acceleration for crc64_be and crc64_nvme.
- Rewrite the riscv Zbc-optimized CRC code, and add acceleration for
crc_t10dif, crc64_be, and crc64_nvme.
- Remove crc_t10dif and crc64_rocksoft from the crypto API, since they
are no longer needed there.
- Rename crc64_rocksoft to crc64_nvme, as the old name was incorrect.
- Add kunit test cases for crc64_nvme and crc7.
- Eliminate redundant functions for calculating the Castagnoli CRC32,
settling on just crc32c().
- Remove unnecessary prompts from some of the CRC kconfig options.
- Further optimize the x86 crc32c code.

Pull lsm updates from Paul Moore:
- Various minor updates to the LSM Rust bindings
Changes include marking trivial Rust bindings as inlines and comment
tweaks to better reflect the LSM hooks.
- Add LSM/SELinux access controls to io_uring_allowed()
Similar to the io_uring_disabled sysctl, add a LSM hook to
io_uring_allowed() to enable LSMs a simple way to enforce security
policy on the use of io_uring. This pull request includes SELinux
support for this new control using the io_uring/allowed permission.
- Remove an unused parameter from the security_perf_event_open() hook
The perf_event_attr struct parameter was not used by any currently
supported LSMs, remove it from the hook.
- Add an explicit MAINTAINERS entry for the credentials code
We've seen problems in the past where patches to the credentials code
sent by non-maintainers would often languish on the lists for
multiple months as there was no one explicitly tasked with the
responsibility of reviewing and/or merging credentials related code.
Considering that most of the code under security/ has a vested
interest in ensuring that the credentials code is well maintained,
I'm volunteering to look after the credentials code and Serge Hallyn
has also volunteered to step up as an official reviewer. I posted the
MAINTAINERS update as a RFC to LKML in hopes that someone else would
jump up with an "I'll do it!", but beyond Serge it was all crickets.

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"These are dominated by cpufreq updates which in turn are dominated by
updates related to boost support in the core and drivers and
amd-pstate driver optimizations.
Apart from the above, there are some cpuidle updates including a
rework of the most recent idle intervals handling in the venerable
menu governor that leads to significant improvements in some
performance benchmarks, as the governor is now more likely to predict
a shorter idle duration in some cases, and there are updates of the
core device power management code, mostly related to system suspend
and resume, that should help to avoid potential issues arising when
the drivers of devices depending on one another want to use different
optimizations.
There is also a usual collection of assorted fixes and cleanups,
including removal of some unused code.

If track_pfn_copy() fails, we already added the dst VMA to the maple
tree. As fork() fails, we'll cleanup the maple tree, and stumble over
the dst VMA for which we neither performed any reservation nor copied
any page tables.
Consequently untrack_pfn() will see VM_PAT and try obtaining the
PAT information from the page table -- which fails because the page
table was not copied.
The easiest fix would be to simply clear the VM_PAT flag of the dst VMA
if track_pfn_copy() fails. However, the whole thing is about "simply"
clearing the VM_PAT flag is shaky as well: if we passed track_pfn_copy()
and performed a reservation, but copying the page tables fails, we'll
simply clear the VM_PAT flag, not properly undoing the reservation ...
which is also wrong.
So let's fix it properly: set the VM_PAT flag only if the reservation
succeeded (leaving it clear initially), and undo the reservation if
anything goes wrong while copying the page tables: clearing the VM_PAT
flag after undoing the reservation.
Note that any copied page table entries will get zapped when the VMA will
get removed later, after copy_page_range() succeeded; as VM_PAT is not set
then, we won't try cleaning VM_PAT up once more and untrack_pfn() will be
happy. Note that leaving these page tables in place without a reservation
is not a problem, as we are aborting fork(); this process will never run.
A reproducer can trigger this usually at the first try:

... and instead of undoing the reservation we simply cleared the VM_PAT flag.
Keep the documentation of these functions in include/linux/pgtable.h,
one place is more than sufficient -- we should clean that up for the other
functions like track_pfn_remap/untrack_pfn separately.

Pull xen updates from Juergen Gross:
- cleanup: remove an used function
- add support for a XenServer specific virtual PCI device
- fix the handling of a sparse Xen hypervisor symbol table
- avoid warnings when building the kernel with gcc 15
- fix use of devices behind a VMD bridge when running as a Xen PV dom0
* tag 'for-linus-6.15-rc1-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/xen/tip:
PCI/MSI: Convert pci_msi_ignore_mask to per MSI domain flag
PCI: vmd: Disable MSI remapping bypass under Xen
xen/pci: Do not register devices with segments >= 0x10000
xen/pciback: Remove unused pcistub_get_pci_dev
xenfs/xensyms: respect hypervisor's "next" indication
xen/mcelog: Add __nonstring annotations for unterminated strings
xen: Add support for XenServer 6.1 platform device
* Nested virtualization support for VGICv3, giving the nested
hypervisor control of the VGIC hardware when running an L2 VM
* Removal of 'late' nested virtualization feature register masking,
making the supported feature set directly visible to userspace
* Support for emulating FEAT_PMUv3 on Apple silicon, taking advantage
of an IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED trap that covers all PMUv3 registers
* Paravirtual interface for discovering the set of CPU implementations
where a VM may run, addressing a longstanding issue of guest CPU
errata awareness in big-little systems and cross-implementation VM
migration
* Userspace control of the registers responsible for identifying a
particular CPU implementation (MIDR_EL1, REVIDR_EL1, AIDR_EL1),
allowing VMs to be migrated cross-implementation
* pKVM updates, including support for tracking stage-2 page table
allocations in the protected hypervisor in the 'SecPageTable' stat
* Fixes to vPMU, ensuring that userspace updates to the vPMU after
KVM_RUN are reflected into the backing perf events
LoongArch:
* Remove unnecessary header include path
* Assume constant PGD during VM context switch
* Add perf events support for guest VM
RISC-V:
* Disable the kernel perf counter during configure
* KVM selftests improvements for PMU
* Fix warning at the time of KVM module removal
x86:
* Add support for aging of SPTEs without holding mmu_lock. Not taking mmu_lock
allows multiple aging actions to run in parallel, and more importantly avoids
stalling vCPUs. This includes an implementation of per-rmap-entry locking;
aging the gfn is done with only a per-rmap single-bin spinlock taken, whereas
locking an rmap for write requires taking both the per-rmap spinlock and
the mmu_lock.
Note that this decreases slightly the accuracy of accessed-page information,
because changes to the SPTE outside aging might not use atomic operations
even if they could race against a clear of the Accessed bit. This is
deliberate because KVM and mm/ tolerate false positives/negatives for
accessed information, and testing has shown that reducing the latency of
aging is far more beneficial to overall system performance than providing
"perfect" young/old information.
* Defer runtime CPUID updates until KVM emulates a CPUID instruction, to
coalesce updates when multiple pieces of vCPU state are changing, e.g. as
part of a nested transition.
* Fix a variety of nested emulation bugs, and add VMX support for synthesizing
nested VM-Exit on interception (instead of injecting #UD into L2).
* Drop "support" for async page faults for protected guests that do not set
SEND_ALWAYS (i.e. that only want async page faults at CPL3)
* Bring a bit of sanity to x86's VM teardown code, which has accumulated
a lot of cruft over the years. Particularly, destroy vCPUs before
the MMU, despite the latter being a VM-wide operation.
* Add common secure TSC infrastructure for use within SNP and in the
future TDX
* Block KVM_CAP_SYNC_REGS if guest state is protected. It does not make
sense to use the capability if the relevant registers are not
available for reading or writing.
* Don't take kvm->lock when iterating over vCPUs in the suspend notifier to
fix a largely theoretical deadlock.
* Use the vCPU's actual Xen PV clock information when starting the Xen timer,
as the cached state in arch.hv_clock can be stale/bogus.
* Fix a bug where KVM could bleed PVCLOCK_GUEST_STOPPED across different
PV clocks; restrict PVCLOCK_GUEST_STOPPED to kvmclock, as KVM's suspend
notifier only accounts for kvmclock, and there's no evidence that the
flag is actually supported by Xen guests.
* Clean up the per-vCPU "cache" of its reference pvclock, and instead only
track the vCPU's TSC scaling (multipler+shift) metadata (which is moderately
expensive to compute, and rarely changes for modern setups).
* Don't write to the Xen hypercall page on MSR writes that are initiated by
the host (userspace or KVM) to fix a class of bugs where KVM can write to
guest memory at unexpected times, e.g. during vCPU creation if userspace has
set the Xen hypercall MSR index to collide with an MSR that KVM emulates.
* Restrict the Xen hypercall MSR index to the unofficial synthetic range to
reduce the set of possible collisions with MSRs that are emulated by KVM
(collisions can still happen as KVM emulates Hyper-V MSRs, which also reside
in the synthetic range).
* Clean up and optimize KVM's handling of Xen MSR writes and xen_hvm_config.
* Update Xen TSC leaves during CPUID emulation instead of modifying the CPUID
entries when updating PV clocks; there is no guarantee PV clocks will be
updated between TSC frequency changes and CPUID emulation, and guest reads
of the TSC leaves should be rare, i.e. are not a hot path.
x86 (Intel):
* Fix a bug where KVM unnecessarily reads XFD_ERR from hardware and thus
modifies the vCPU's XFD_ERR on a #NM due to CR0.TS=1.
* Pass XFD_ERR as the payload when injecting #NM, as a preparatory step
for upcoming FRED virtualization support.
* Decouple the EPT entry RWX protection bit macros from the EPT Violation
bits, both as a general cleanup and in anticipation of adding support for
emulating Mode-Based Execution Control (MBEC).
* Reject KVM_RUN if userspace manages to gain control and stuff invalid guest
state while KVM is in the middle of emulating nested VM-Enter.
* Add a macro to handle KVM's sanity checks on entry/exit VMCS control pairs
in anticipation of adding sanity checks for secondary exit controls (the
primary field is out of bits).
x86 (AMD):
* Ensure the PSP driver is initialized when both the PSP and KVM modules are
built-in (the initcall framework doesn't handle dependencies).
* Use long-term pins when registering encrypted memory regions, so that the
pages are migrated out of MIGRATE_CMA/ZONE_MOVABLE and don't lead to
excessive fragmentation.
* Add macros and helpers for setting GHCB return/error codes.
* Add support for Idle HLT interception, which elides interception if the vCPU
has a pending, unmasked virtual IRQ when HLT is executed.
* Fix a bug in INVPCID emulation where KVM fails to check for a non-canonical
address.
* Don't attempt VMRUN for SEV-ES+ guests if the vCPU's VMSA is invalid, e.g.
because the vCPU was "destroyed" via SNP's AP Creation hypercall.
* Reject SNP AP Creation if the requested SEV features for the vCPU don't
match the VM's configured set of features.
Selftests:
* Fix again the Intel PMU counters test; add a data load and do CLFLUSH{OPT} on the data
instead of executing code. The theory is that modern Intel CPUs have
learned new code prefetching tricks that bypass the PMU counters.
* Fix a flaw in the Intel PMU counters test where it asserts that an event is
counting correctly without actually knowing what the event counts on the
underlying hardware.
* Fix a variety of flaws, bugs, and false failures/passes dirty_log_test, and
improve its coverage by collecting all dirty entries on each iteration.
* Fix a few minor bugs related to handling of stats FDs.
* Add infrastructure to make vCPU and VM stats FDs available to tests by
default (open the FDs during VM/vCPU creation).
* Relax an assertion on the number of HLT exits in the xAPIC IPI test when
running on a CPU that supports AMD's Idle HLT (which elides interception of
HLT if a virtual IRQ is pending and unmasked).

- Consolidate the VDSO storage
The VDSO data storage and data layout has been largely architecture
specific for historical reasons. That increases the maintenance effort
and causes inconsistencies over and over.
There is no real technical reason for architecture specific layouts and
implementations. The architecture specific details can easily be
integrated into a generic layout, which also reduces the amount of
duplicated code for managing the mappings.
Convert all architectures over to a unified layout and common mapping
infrastructure. This splits the VDSO data layout into subsystem
specific blocks, timekeeping, random and architecture parts, which
provides a better structure and allows to improve and update the
functionalities without conflict and interaction.
- Rework the timekeeping data storage
The current implementation is designed for exposing system timekeeping
accessors, which was good enough at the time when it was designed.
PTP and Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) change that as there are
requirements to expose independent PTP clocks, which are not related to
system timekeeping.
Replace the monolithic data storage by a structured layout, which
allows to add support for independent PTP clocks on top while reusing
both the data structures and the time accessor implementations.

hrtimers are initialized with hrtimer_init() and a subsequent store to
the callback pointer. This turned out to be suboptimal for the upcoming
Rust integration and is obviously a silly implementation to begin with.
This cleanup replaces the hrtimer_init(T); T->function = cb; sequence
with hrtimer_setup(T, cb);
The conversion was done with Coccinelle and a few manual fixups.
Once the conversion has completely landed in mainline, hrtimer_init()
will be removed and the hrtimer::function becomes a private member.

- Support for hard indices on RISC-V. The hart index identifies a hart
(core) within a specific interrupt domain in RISC-V's Priviledged
Architecture.
- Rework of the RISC-V MSI driver.
This moves the driver over to the generic MSI library and solves the
affinity problem of unmaskable PCI/MSI controllers. Unmaskable PCI/MSI
controllers are prone to lose interrupts when the MSI message is
updated to change the affinity because the message write consists of
three 32-bit subsequent writes, which update address and data. As these
writes are non-atomic versus the device raising an interrupt, the
device can observe a half written update and issue an interrupt on the
wrong vector. This is mitiated by a carefully orchestrated step by step
update and the observation of an eventually pending interrupt on the
CPU which issues the update. The algorithm follows the well established
method of the X86 MSI driver.
- A new driver for the RISC-V Sophgo SG2042 MSI controller
- Overhaul of the Renesas RZQ2L driver.
Simplification of the probe function by using devm_*() mechanisms,
which avoid the endless list of error prone gotos in the failure paths.
- Expand the Renesas RZV2H driver to support RZ/G3E SoCs
- A workaround for Rockchip 3568002 erratum in the GIC-V3 driver to
ensure that the addressing is limited to the lower 32-bit of the
physical address space.
- Add support for the Allwinner AS23 NMI controller
- Expand the IMX irqsteer driver to handle up to 960 input interrupts
- The usual small updates, cleanups and device tree changes.

init_intel_cacheinfo() was overly complex. It parsed leaf 0x4 data,
leaf 0x2 data, and performed post-processing, all within one function.
Parent commit moved leaf 0x2 parsing and the post-processing logic into
their own functions.
Continue the refactoring by extracting leaf 0x4 parsing into its own
function. Initialize local L2/L3 topology ID variables to BAD_APICID by

CPUID leaf 0x2 describes TLBs and caches. So there are two tables with the
respective descriptor constants in intel.c and cacheinfo.c. The tables
occupy almost 600 byte and require a loop based lookup for each variant.
Combining them into one table occupies exactly 1k rodata and allows to get
rid of the loop based lookup by just using the descriptor byte provided by
CPUID leaf 0x2 as index into the table, which simplifies the code and
reduces text size.
The conversion of the intel.c and cacheinfo.c code is done separately.
[ darwi: Actually define struct leaf_0x2_table.
Tab-align all of cpuid_0x2_table[] mapping entries.

Set descriptor 0x63 type as TLB_DATA_1G_2M_4M and explain why.
Use enums for cache and TLB descriptor types (parent commits.)
Start enum types at 1 since type 0 is reserved for unknown descriptors.
Ensure that cache and TLB enum type values do not intersect.

CPUID leaf 0x2 output is a stream of one-byte descriptors, each implying
certain details about the CPU's cache and TLB entries.
Two separate tables exist for interpreting these descriptors: one for
TLBs at intel.c and one for caches at cacheinfo.c. These mapping tables
will be merged in further commits, among other improvements to their
model.
In preparation for this, use more descriptive type names for the leaf
0x2 descriptors associated with cpu caches. Namely:
LVL_1_INST => CACHE_L1_INST
LVL_1_DATA => CACHE_L1_DATA
LVL_2 => CACHE_L2
LVL_3 => CACHE_L3
After the TLB and cache descriptors mapping tables are merged, this will
make it clear that such descriptors correspond to cpu caches.

splitted AMD vs. Intel leaf 0x4 handling into:
amd_fill_cpuid4_info()
intel_fill_cpuid4_info()
fill_cpuid4_info()
After doing all that, the "_cpuid4_info_regs" name becomes a mouthful.
It is also not totally accurate, as the structure holds cpuid4 derived
information like cache node ID and size -- not just regs.

The CPUID leaf 0x4 parsing code at cpuid4_cache_lookup_regs() is ugly and
convoluted. It is tangled with multiple nested conditions to handle:
* AMD with TOPEXT, or Hygon CPUs via leaf 0x8000001d
* Legacy AMD fallback via leaf 0x4 emulation
* Intel CPUs via the actual CPUID leaf 0x4
Moreover, AMD L3 northbridge initialization is also awkwardly placed
alongside the CPUID calls of the first two scenarios above. Refactor all
of that as follows:
* Update AMD's leaf 0x4 emulation comment to represent current state
* Clearly label the AMD leaf 0x4 emulation function as a fallback
* Split AMD/Hygon and Intel code paths into separate functions
* Move AMD L3 northbridge initialization out of CPUID leaf 0x4 code,
and into populate_cache_leaves() where it belongs. There,
ci_info_init() can directly store the initialized object in the
private pointer of the <linux/cacheinfo.h> API.

Given that decoupling, move the AMD-specific L3 cache_disable_0/1 sysfs

'struct _cpuid4_info_regs' is meant to hold the CPUID leaf 0x4
output registers (EAX, EBX, and ECX), as well as derived information
such as the cache node ID and size.
It also contains a reference to amd_northbridge, which is there only to
be "parked" until ci_info_init() can store it in the priv pointer of the
<linux/cacheinfo.h> API. That priv pointer is then used by AMD-specific
L3 cache_disable_0/1 sysfs attributes.
Decouple amd_northbridge from _cpuid4_info_regs and pass it explicitly
through the functions at x86/cacheinfo. Doing so clarifies when
amd_northbridge is actually needed (AMD-only code) and when it is
not (Intel-specific code). It also prepares for moving the AMD-specific
L3 cache_disable_0/1 sysfs code into its own file in next commit.

While gathering CPU cache info, CPUID leaf 0x8000001d is invoked in two
separate if blocks: one for Hygon CPUs and one for AMDs with topology
extensions. After each invocation, amd_init_l3_cache() is called.
Merge the two if blocks into a single condition, thus removing the
duplicated code. Future commits will expand these if blocks, so
combining them now is both cleaner and more maintainable.

The cacheinfo code frequently uses the output registers from CPUID leaf
0x4. Such registers are cached in 'struct _cpuid4_info_regs', augmented
with related information, and are then passed across functions.
The naming of these _cpuid4_info_regs instances is confusing at best.
Some instances are called "this_leaf", which is vague as "this" lacks
context and "leaf" is overly generic given that other CPUID leaves are
also processed within cacheinfo. Other _cpuid4_info_regs instances are
just called "base", adding further ambiguity.

When split_lock_mitigate is disabled, each CPU needs its own delayed_work
structure. They are used to reenable split lock detection after its
disabling. But delayed_work structure must be correctly initialized after
its allocation.
Current implementation uses deferred initialization that makes the
split lock handler code unclear. The code can be simplified a bit
if the initialization is moved to the appropriate initcall.
sld_setup() is called before setup_per_cpu_areas(), thus it can't be used
for this purpose, so introduce an independent initcall for
the initialization.

For X86_FEATURE_SMAP alternatives which replace NOP with STAC or CLAC,
uaccess validation skips the NOP branch to avoid following impossible
code paths, e.g. where a STAC would be patched but a CLAC wouldn't.
However, it's not safe to assume an X86_FEATURE_SMAP alternative is
patching STAC/CLAC. There can be other alternatives, like
static_cpu_has(), where both branches need to be validated.
Fix that by repurposing ANNOTATE_IGNORE_ALTERNATIVE for skipping either
original instructions or new ones. This is a more generic approach
which enables the removal of the feature checking hacks and the
insn->ignore bit.
Fixes the following warnings:
arch/x86/mm/fault.o: warning: objtool: do_user_addr_fault+0x8ec: __stack_chk_fail() missing __noreturn in .c/.h or NORETURN() in noreturns.h

During the bring-up of an x86 board, the kernel was crashing before
reaching the platform's console driver because of a bug in the firmware,
leaving no trace of the boot progress.
The only available method to debug the kernel boot process was via the
platform's MMIO-based UART, as the board lacked an I/O port-based UART,
PCI UART, or functional video output.
Then it turned out that earlyprintk= does not have a knob to configure
the MMIO-mapped UART.
Extend the early printk facility to support platform MMIO-based UARTs
on x86 systems, enabling debugging during the system bring-up phase.
The command line syntax to enable platform MMIO-based UART is:
earlyprintk=mmio,membase[,{nocfg|baudrate}][,keep]
Note, the change does not integrate MMIO-based UART support to:
arch/x86/boot/early_serial_console.c
Also, update kernel parameters documentation with the new syntax and
add the missing 'nocfg' setting to the PCI serial cards description.

Commit:
2e4be0d011 ("x86/show_trace_log_lvl: Ensure stack pointer is aligned, again")
was intended to ensure alignment of the stack pointer; but it also moved
the initialization of the "stack" variable down into the loop header.
This was likely intended as a no-op cleanup, since the commit
message does not mention it; however, this caused a behavioral change
because the value of "regs" is different between the two places.
Originally, get_stack_pointer() used the regs provided by the caller; after
that commit, get_stack_pointer() instead uses the regs at the top of the
stack frame the unwinder is looking at. Often, there are no such regs at
all, and "regs" is NULL, causing get_stack_pointer() to fall back to the
task's current stack pointer, which is not what we want here, but probably
happens to mostly work. Other times, the original regs will point to
another regs frame - in that case, the linear guess unwind logic in
show_trace_log_lvl() will start unwinding too far up the stack, causing the
first frame found by the proper unwinder to never be visited, resulting in
a stack trace consisting purely of guess lines.
Fix it by moving the "stack = " assignment back where it belongs.

PUSH_REGS with save_ret=1 is used by interrupt entry helper functions that
initially start with a UNWIND_HINT_FUNC ORC state.
However, save_ret=1 means that we clobber the helper function's return
address (and then later restore the return address further down on the
stack); after that point, the only thing on the stack we can unwind through
is the IRET frame, so use UNWIND_HINT_IRET_REGS until we have a full
pt_regs frame.
( An alternate approach would be to move the pt_regs->di overwrite down
such that it is the final step of pt_regs setup; but I don't want to
rearrange entry code just to make unwinding a tiny bit more elegant. )

There are two issues that can appear when building with clang and
'-march=native'.
The first issue is a compiler crash in the ipv6 stack with clang-18,
such as when building allmodconfig. This was frequently reported on the
LLVM issue tracker:
# Link: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues?q=is%3Aissue%20ip6_rcv_core
Stack dump:
0. Program arguments: clang ... -march=native ... net/ipv6/ip6_input.c
1. <eof> parser at end of file
2. Code generation
3. Running pass 'Function Pass Manager' on module 'net/ipv6/ip6_input.c'.
4. Running pass 'X86 DAG->DAG Instruction Selection' on function '@ip6_rcv_core'
The second issue is certain -Wframe-larger-than warnings that appear
with clang versions prior to 19, which introduced an optimization that
produces much better code:
# Link: 90ba33099c [2]
clang-18:
drivers/media/pci/saa7164/saa7164-core.c:605:20: error: stack frame size (2392) exceeds limit (2048) in 'saa7164_irq' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than]
605 | static irqreturn_t saa7164_irq(int irq, void *dev_id)

clang-19:

605 | static irqreturn_t saa7164_irq(int irq, void *dev_id)
| ^
Restrict the testing of the availability of '-march=native' to all
supported GCC versions and clang-19 and newer to avoid these known
resolved issues.

Add a 'native' option that allows users to build an optimized kernel for
their local machine (i.e. the machine which is used to build the kernel)
by passing '-march=native' to CFLAGS.
The idea comes from Linus' reply to Arnd's initial proposal:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAHk-=wji1sV93yKbc==Z7OSSHBiDE=LAdG_d5Y-zPBrnSs0k2A@mail.gmail.com/
Here are some numbers comparing 'generic' to 'native' on a Skylake dual-core
laptop (generic --> native):
- vmlinux and compressed modules size:
125'907'744 bytes --> 125'595'280 bytes (-0.248 %)
18'810 kilobytes --> 18'770 kilobytes (-0.213 %)
- phoronix, average of 3 runs:
ffmpeg:
130.99 --> 131.15 (+0.122 %)
nginx:
10'650 --> 10'725 (+0.704 %)
hackbench (lower is better):
102.27 --> 99.50 (-2.709 %)
- xz compression of firefox tarball (lower is better):
319.57 seconds --> 317.34 seconds (-0.698 %)
- stress-ng, bogoops, average of 3 15-second runs:
fork:
111'744 --> 115'509 (+3.397 %)
bsearch:
7'211 --> 7'436 (+3.120 %)
memfd:
3'591 --> 3'604 (+0.362 %)
mmapfork:
630 --> 629 (-0.159 %)
schedmix:
42'715 --> 43'251 (+1.255 %)
epoll:
2'443'767 --> 2'454'413 (+0.436 %)
vm:
1'442'256 --> 1'486'615 (+3.076 %)
- schbench (two message threads), 30-second runs:
304 rps --> 305 rps (+0.329 %)
There is little difference both in terms of size and of performance, however
the native build comes out on top ever so slightly.

Currently, it is not true that the kernel will panic with CONFIG_X86_X2APIC=n
on systems that require it; it will try to disable the APIC and run without
it to at least give the user a clear warning message. See the second

Also massage some other parts of the help text.

We've had this before: when we remove infrastructure to generate files,
the old stale build artifacts still remain in-tree. And when the
infrastructure to generate them is gone, so is the gitignore file for
those build artifacts.
End result: git will see the old generated files, and people will
mistakenly commit them. That's what happened with the 'genheaders' file
not that long ago (see commit 04a3389b35 "Remove stale generated
'genheaders' file").
This time it's commit 9c54baab44 ("x86/boot: Drop CRC-32 checksum and
the build tool that generates it") that removed the 'build' file from
the arch/x86/boot/tools/ subdirectory, and removed the .gitignore file
too (because the whole subdirectory is gone).
And as a result, if you don't do a 'git clean -dqfx' or similar to clean
up your tree, 'git status' will say
Untracked files:
(use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
arch/x86/boot/tools/
and some hapless sleep-deprived developer will inevitably decide that
that means that they need to 'git add' that directory. Which would
bring back some stale generated file that we most definitely do not want
in the tree.
So when removing directories that had special .gitignore patterns, make
sure to add a new gitignore entry in the parent directory for the no
longer existing subdirectory.
It will avoid mistakes.

Merge tag 'vfs-6.15-rc1.mount' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull vfs mount updates from Christian Brauner:
- Mount notifications
The day has come where we finally provide a new api to listen for
mount topology changes outside of /proc/<pid>/mountinfo. A mount
namespace file descriptor can be supplied and registered with
fanotify to listen for mount topology changes.
Currently notifications for mount, umount and moving mounts are
generated. The generated notification record contains the unique
mount id of the mount.
The listmount() and statmount() api can be used to query detailed
information about the mount using the received unique mount id.
This allows userspace to figure out exactly how the mount topology
changed without having to generating diffs of /proc/<pid>/mountinfo
in userspace.
- Support O_PATH file descriptors with FSCONFIG_SET_FD in the new mount
api
- Support detached mounts in overlayfs
Since last cycle we support specifying overlayfs layers via file
descriptors. However, we don't allow detached mounts which means
userspace cannot user file descriptors received via
open_tree(OPEN_TREE_CLONE) and fsmount() directly. They have to
attach them to a mount namespace via move_mount() first.
This is cumbersome and means they have to undo mounts via umount().
Allow them to directly use detached mounts.
- Allow to retrieve idmappings with statmount
Currently it isn't possible to figure out what idmapping has been
attached to an idmapped mount. Add an extension to statmount() which
allows to read the idmapping from the mount.
- Allow creating idmapped mounts from mounts that are already idmapped
So far it isn't possible to allow the creation of idmapped mounts
from already idmapped mounts as this has significant lifetime
implications. Make the creation of idmapped mounts atomic by allow to
pass struct mount_attr together with the open_tree_attr() system call
allowing to solve these issues without complicating VFS lookup in any
way.
The system call has in general the benefit that creating a detached
mount and applying mount attributes to it becomes an atomic operation
for userspace.
- Add a way to query statmount() for supported options
Allow userspace to query which mount information can be retrieved
through statmount().
- Allow superblock owners to force unmount

- Use str_enable_disable() helper in cpufreq_online() (Lifeng Zheng).
- Optimize the amd-pstate driver to avoid cases where call paths end
up calling the same writes multiple times and needlessly caching
variables through code reorganization, locking overhaul and tracing
adjustments (Mario Limonciello, Dhananjay Ugwekar).
- Make it possible to avoid enabling capacity-aware scheduling (CAS) in
the intel_pstate driver and relocate a check for out-of-band (OOB)
platform handling in it to make it detect OOB before checking HWP
availability (Rafael Wysocki).
- Fix dbs_update() to avoid inadvertent conversions of negative integer
values to unsigned int which causes CPU frequency selection to be
inaccurate in some cases when the "conservative" cpufreq governor is
in use (Jie Zhan).

The toplevel Makefile already provides -fmacro-prefix-map as part of
KBUILD_CPPFLAGS. In contrast to the KBUILD_CFLAGS and KBUILD_AFLAGS
variables, KBUILD_CPPFLAGS is not redefined in the architecture specific
Makefiles. Therefore the toplevel KBUILD_CPPFLAGS do apply just fine, to
both C and ASM sources.
The custom configuration was necessary when it was added in
commit 9e2276fa6e ("arch/x86/boot: Use prefix map to avoid embedded
paths") but has since become unnecessary in commit a716bd7432
("kbuild: use -fmacro-prefix-map for .S sources").
Drop the now unnecessary custom prefix map configuration.

CONFIG_TRACE_BRANCH_PROFILING inserts a call to ftrace_likely_update()
for each use of likely() or unlikely(). That breaks noinstr rules if
the affected function is annotated as noinstr.
Disable branch profiling for files with noinstr functions. In addition
to some individual files, this also includes the entire arch/x86
subtree, as well as the kernel/entry, drivers/cpuidle, and drivers/idle
directories, all of which are noinstr-heavy.
Due to the nature of how sched binaries are built by combining multiple
.c files into one, branch profiling is disabled more broadly across the
sched code than would otherwise be needed.
This fixes many warnings like the following:
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: do_syscall_64+0x40: call to ftrace_likely_update() leaves .noinstr.text section
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: __rdgsbase_inactive+0x33: call to ftrace_likely_update() leaves .noinstr.text section

Although IBS "swfilt" can prevent leaking samples with kernel RIP to the
userspace, there are few subtle cases where a 'data' address and/or a
'branch target' address can fall under kernel address range although RIP
is from userspace. Prevent leaking kernel 'data' addresses by discarding
such samples when {exclude_kernel=1,swfilt=1}.
IBS can now be invoked by unprivileged user with the introduction of
"swfilt". However, this creates a loophole in the interface where an
unprivileged user can get physical address of the userspace virtual
addresses through IBS register raw dump (PERF_SAMPLE_RAW). Prevent this
as well.
This upstream commit fixed the most obvious leak:

Follow that up with a more complete fix.

I was unable to find a good description of the ServerWorks CNB20LE
chipset. However, it was probably exclusively used with the Pentium III
processor (this CPU model was used in all references to it that I
found where the CPU model was provided: dmesgs in [1] and [2];
[3] page 2; [4]-[7]).
As is widely known, the Pentium III processor did not support the 64-bit
mode, support for which was introduced by Intel a couple of years later.
So it is safe to assume that no systems with the CNB20LE chipset have
amd64 and the CONFIG_PCI_CNB20LE_QUIRK may now depend on X86_32.
Additionally, I have determined that most computers with the CNB20LE
chipset did have ACPI support and this driver was inactive on them.
I have submitted a patch to remove this driver, but it was met with
resistance [8].

As many current platforms (most modern Intel CPUs and QEMU) have x2APIC
present, enable CONFIG_X86_X2APIC by default as it gives performance
and functionality benefits. Additionally, if the BIOS has already
switched APIC to x2APIC mode, but CONFIG_X86_X2APIC is disabled, the
kernel will panic in arch/x86/kernel/apic/apic.c .
Also improve the help text, which was confusing and really did not
describe what the feature is about.
Help text references and discussion:
Both Intel [1] and AMD [3] spell the name as "x2APIC", not "x2apic".
"It allows faster access to the local APIC"
[2], chapter 2.1, page 15:
"More efficient MSR interface to access APIC registers."
"x2APIC was introduced in Intel CPUs around 2008":
I was unable to find specific information which Intel CPUs
support x2APIC. Wikipedia claims it was "introduced with the
Nehalem microarchitecture in November 2008", but I was not able
to confirm this independently. At least some Nehalem CPUs do not
support x2APIC [1].
The documentation [2] is dated June 2008. Linux kernel also
introduced x2APIC support in 2008, so the year seems to be
right.
"and in AMD EPYC CPUs in 2019":
[3], page 15:
"AMD introduced an x2APIC in our EPYC 7002 Series processors for
the first time."
"It is also frequently emulated in virtual machines, even when the host
CPU does not support it."
[1]
"If this configuration option is disabled, the kernel will not boot on
some platforms that have x2APIC enabled."
According to some BIOS documentation [4], the x2APIC may be
"disabled", "enabled", or "force enabled" on this system.
I think that "enabled" means "made available to the operating
system, but not already turned on" and "force enabled" means
"already switched to x2APIC mode when the OS boots". Only in the
latter mode a kernel without CONFIG_X86_X2APIC will panic in
validate_x2apic() in arch/x86/kernel/apic/apic.c .
QEMU 4.2.1 and my Intel HP laptop (bought in 2019) use the
"enabled" mode and the kernel does not panic.

Current code varies in how the size of the variable size input header
for hypercalls is calculated when the input contains struct hv_vpset.
Surprisingly, this variation is correct, as different hypercalls make
different choices for what portion of struct hv_vpset is treated as part
of the variable size input header. The Hyper-V TLFS is silent on these
details, but the behavior has been confirmed with Hyper-V developers.
To avoid future confusion about these differences, add comments to
struct hv_vpset, and to hypercall call sites with input that contains
a struct hv_vpset. The comments describe the overall situation and
the calculation that should be used at each particular call site.
No functional change as only comments are updated.

Setting pci_msi_ignore_mask inhibits the toggling of the mask bit for both
MSI and MSI-X entries globally, regardless of the IRQ chip they are using.
Only Xen sets the pci_msi_ignore_mask when routing physical interrupts over
event channels, to prevent PCI code from attempting to toggle the maskbit,
as it's Xen that controls the bit.
However, the pci_msi_ignore_mask being global will affect devices that use
MSI interrupts but are not routing those interrupts over event channels
(not using the Xen pIRQ chip). One example is devices behind a VMD PCI
bridge. In that scenario the VMD bridge configures MSI(-X) using the
normal IRQ chip (the pIRQ one in the Xen case), and devices behind the
bridge configure the MSI entries using indexes into the VMD bridge MSI
table. The VMD bridge then demultiplexes such interrupts and delivers to
the destination device(s). Having pci_msi_ignore_mask set in that scenario
prevents (un)masking of MSI entries for devices behind the VMD bridge.
Move the signaling of no entry masking into the MSI domain flags, as that
allows setting it on a per-domain basis. Set it for the Xen MSI domain
that uses the pIRQ chip, while leaving it unset for the rest of the
cases.
Remove pci_msi_ignore_mask at once, since it was only used by Xen code, and
with Xen dropping usage the variable is unneeded.
This fixes using devices behind a VMD bridge on Xen PV hardware domains.
Albeit Devices behind a VMD bridge are not known to Xen, that doesn't mean
Linux cannot use them. By inhibiting the usage of
VMD_FEAT_CAN_BYPASS_MSI_REMAP and the removal of the pci_msi_ignore_mask
bodge devices behind a VMD bridge do work fine when use from a Linux Xen
hardware domain. That's the whole point of the series.

Clang does not tolerate the use of non-TLS symbols for the per-CPU stack
protector very well, and to work around this limitation, the symbol
passed via the -mstack-protector-guard-symbol= option is never defined
in C code, but only in the linker script, and it is exported from an
assembly file. This is necessary because Clang will fail to generate the
correct %GS based references in a compilation unit that includes a
non-TLS definition of the guard symbol being used to store the stack
cookie.
This problem is only triggered by symbol definitions, not by
declarations, but nonetheless, the declaration in <asm/asm-prototypes.h>
is conditional on __GENKSYMS__ being #define'd, so that only genksyms
will observe it, but for ordinary compilation, it will be invisible.
This is causing problems with the genksyms alternative gendwarfksyms,
which does not #define __GENKSYMS__, does not observe the symbol
declaration, and therefore lacks the information it needs to version it.
Adding the #define creates problems in other places, so that is not a
straight-forward solution. So take the easy way out, and drop the
conditional on __GENKSYMS__, as this is not really needed to begin with.

In a (non-nested) root partition, the same interrupt vector is shared
between the vmbus and mshv_root drivers.
Introduce a stub for mshv_handler() and call it in
sysvec_hyperv_callback alongside vmbus_handler().
Even though both handlers will be called for every Hyper-V interrupt,
the messages for each driver are delivered to different offsets
within the SYNIC message page, so they won't step on each other.

By default, X86(-64) systems use the emergecy restart routine
in the course of which the code unconditionally writes to
the physical address of 0x472 to indicate the boot mode
to the firmware (BIOS or UEFI).
When the kernel itself runs as a firmware in the VTL mode,
that write corrupts the memory of the guest upon emergency
restarting. Preserving the state intact in that situation
is important for debugging, at least.
Define the specialized machine callback to avoid that write
and use the triple fault to perform emergency restart.

- Add common secure TSC infrastructure for use within SNP and in the
future TDX
- Block KVM_CAP_SYNC_REGS if guest state is protected. It does not make
sense to use the capability if the relevant registers are not
available for reading or writing.
The immediate issue being fixed here is a nVMX bug where KVM fails to
detect that, after nested VM-Exit, L1 has a pending IRQ (or NMI).
However, checking for a pending interrupt accesses the legacy PIC, and
x86's kvm_arch_destroy_vm() currently frees the PIC before destroying
vCPUs, i.e. checking for IRQs during the forced nested VM-Exit results
in a NULL pointer deref; that's a prerequisite for the nVMX fix.
The remaining patches attempt to bring a bit of sanity to x86's VM
teardown code, which has accumulated a lot of cruft over the years. E.g.
KVM currently unloads each vCPU's MMUs in a separate operation from
destroying vCPUs, all because when guest SMP support was added, KVM had a
kludgy MMU teardown flow that broke when a VM had more than one 1 vCPU.
And that oddity lived on, for 18 years...

Track whether pages were unmapped from any MM (even ones with a currently
empty mm_cpumask) by the reclaim code, to figure out whether or not
broadcast TLB flush should be done when reclaim finishes.
The reason any MM must be tracked, and not only ones contributing to the
tlbbatch cpumask, is that broadcast ASIDs are expected to be kept up to
date even on CPUs where the MM is not currently active.
This change allows reclaim to avoid doing TLB flushes when only clean page
cache pages and/or slab memory were reclaimed, which is fairly common.
( This is a simpler alternative to the code that was in my INVLPGB series
before, and it seems to capture most of the benefit due to how common
it is to reclaim only page cache. )

p6_pmu_init() is expected to provide that initialization for early

truly need the special handling.
As a result, the "unsupported" console print becomes practically
unreachable because all the released P6 processors are covered by the
switch cases. Move the console print to a common location where it can
cover all modern processors (including Family >15) that may not have
architectural perfmon support enumerated.
Also, use this opportunity to get rid of the unnecessary switch cases in
P6 initialization. Only the Pentium Pro processor needs a quirk, and the
rest of the processors do not need any special handling. The gaps in the
case numbers are only due to no processor with those model numbers being
released.
Use decimal numbers to represent Intel Family numbers. Also, convert one
of the last few Intel x86_model comparisons to a VFM-based one.

Intel made a late change to the AVX10 specification that removes support
for a 256-bit maximum vector length and enumeration of the maximum
vector length. AVX10 will imply a maximum vector length of 512 bits.
I.e. there won't be any such thing as AVX10/256 or AVX10/512; there will
just be AVX10, and it will essentially just consolidate AVX512 features.
As a result of this new development, my strategy of providing both
*_avx10_256 and *_avx10_512 functions didn't turn out to be that useful.
The only remaining motivation for the 256-bit AVX512 / AVX10 functions
is to avoid downclocking on older Intel CPUs. But I already wrote
*_avx2 code too (primarily to support CPUs without AVX512), which
performs almost as well as *_avx10_256. So we should just use that.
Therefore, remove the *_avx10_256 CRC functions, and rename the
*_avx10_512 CRC functions to *_avx512. Make Ice Lake and Tiger Lake use
the *_avx2 functions instead of *_avx10_256 which they previously used.

We ripped out PV and virtualization related bits from rqspinlock in an
earlier commit, however, a fair lock performs poorly within a virtual
machine when the lock holder is preempted. As such, retain the
virt_spin_lock fallback to test and set lock, but with timeout and
deadlock detection. We can do this by simply depending on the
resilient_tas_spin_lock implementation from the previous patch.
We don't integrate support for CONFIG_PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS yet, as that
requires more involved algorithmic changes and introduces more
complexity. It can be done when the need arises in the future.

Add support for "fast" aging of SPTEs in both the TDP MMU and Shadow MMU, where
"fast" means "without holding mmu_lock". Not taking mmu_lock allows multiple
aging actions to run in parallel, and more importantly avoids stalling vCPUs,
e.g. due to holding mmu_lock for an extended duration while a vCPU is faulting
in memory.
For the TDP MMU, protect aging via RCU; the page tables are RCU-protected and
KVM doesn't need to access any metadata to age SPTEs.
For the Shadow MMU, use bit 1 of rmap pointers (bit 0 is used to terminate a
list of rmaps) to implement a per-rmap single-bit spinlock. When aging a gfn,
acquire the rmap's spinlock with read-only permissions, which allows hardening
and optimizing the locking and aging, e.g. locking an rmap for write requires
mmu_lock to also be held. The lock is NOT a true R/W spinlock, i.e. multiple
concurrent readers aren't supported.
To avoid forcing all SPTE updates to use atomic operations (clearing the
Accessed bit out of mmu_lock makes it inherently volatile), rework and rename
spte_has_volatile_bits() to spte_needs_atomic_update() and deliberately exclude
the Accessed bit. KVM (and mm/) already tolerates false positives/negatives
for Accessed information, and all testing has shown that reducing the latency
of aging is far more beneficial to overall system performance than providing
"perfect" young/old information.

While the GCC and Clang compilers already define __ASSEMBLER__
automatically when compiling assembly code, __ASSEMBLY__ is a
macro that only gets defined by the Makefiles in the kernel.
This can be very confusing when switching between userspace
and kernelspace coding, or when dealing with UAPI headers that
rather should use __ASSEMBLER__ instead. So let's standardize on
the __ASSEMBLER__ macro that is provided by the compilers now.
This is mostly a mechanical patch (done with a simple "sed -i"
statement), with some manual tweaks in <asm/frame.h>, <asm/hw_irq.h>
and <asm/setup.h> that mentioned this macro in comments with some
missing underscores.

__ASSEMBLY__ is only defined by the Makefile of the kernel, so
this is not really useful for UAPI headers (unless the userspace
Makefile defines it, too). Let's switch to __ASSEMBLER__ which
gets set automatically by the compiler when compiling assembly
code.

According to:
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Size-of-an-asm.html
the usage of asm pseudo directives in the asm template can confuse
the compiler to wrongly estimate the size of the generated
code.
The LOCK_PREFIX macro expands to several asm pseudo directives, so
its usage in atomic locking insns causes instruction length estimates
to fail significantly (the specially instrumented compiler reports
the estimated length of these asm templates to be 6 instructions long).
This incorrect estimate further causes unoptimal inlining decisions,
un-optimal instruction scheduling and un-optimal code block alignments
for functions that use these locking primitives.
Use asm_inline instead:
https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2018-December/512349.html
which is a feature that makes GCC pretend some inline assembler code
is tiny (while it would think it is huge), instead of just asm.
For code size estimation, the size of the asm is then taken as
the minimum size of one instruction, ignoring how many instructions
compiler thinks it is.

c) full inline of small functions with locking insn (~150 cases).
These bring in most of the code size increase because the removed
function code is now inlined in multiple places. E.g.:
0000000000a50e10 <release_devnum>:
a50e10: 48 63 07 movslq (%rdi),%rax
a50e13: 85 c0 test %eax,%eax
a50e15: 7e 10 jle a50e27 <release_devnum+0x17>
a50e17: 48 8b 4f 50 mov 0x50(%rdi),%rcx
a50e1b: f0 48 0f b3 41 50 lock btr %rax,0x50(%rcx)
a50e21: c7 07 ff ff ff ff movl $0xffffffff,(%rdi)
a50e27: e9 00 00 00 00 jmp a50e2c <release_devnum+0x1c>
a50e28: R_X86_64_PLT32 __x86_return_thunk-0x4
a50e2c: 0f 1f 40 00 nopl 0x0(%rax)
is now fully inlined into the caller function. This is desirable due
to the per function overhead of CPU bug mitigations like retpolines.
FTR a) with -Os (where generated code size really matters) x86_64
defconfig object file decreases by 24.388 kbytes, representing 0.1%

Use ASM_CALL_CONSTRAINT to prevent inline asm() that includes call
instruction from being scheduled before the frame pointer gets set
up by the containing function. This unconstrained scheduling might
cause objtool to print a "call without frame pointer save/setup"
warning. Current versions of compilers don't seem to trigger this
condition, but without this constraint there's nothing to prevent
the compiler from scheduling the insn in front of frame creation.

Clang versions before 17 will not honour -fdirect-access-external-data
for the load of the stack cookie emitted into each function's prologue
and epilogue, and will emit a GOT based reference instead, e.g.,
4c 8b 2d 00 00 00 00 mov 0x0(%rip),%r13
18a: R_X86_64_REX_GOTPCRELX __ref_stack_chk_guard-0x4
65 49 8b 45 00 mov %gs:0x0(%r13),%rax
This is inefficient, but at least, the linker will usually follow the
rules of the x86 psABI, and relax the GOT load into a RIP-relative LEA
instruction. This is still suboptimal, as the per-CPU load could use a
RIP-relative reference directly, but at least it gets rid of the first
load from memory.
However, Boris reports that in some cases, when using distro builds of
Clang/LLD 15, the first load gets relaxed into
49 c7 c6 20 c0 55 86 mov $0xffffffff8655c020,%r14
ffffffff8373bf0f: R_X86_64_32S __ref_stack_chk_guard
65 49 8b 06 mov %gs:(%r14),%rax
instead, which is fine in principle, as MOV may be cheaper than LEA on
some micro-architectures. However, such absolute references assume that
the variable in question can be accessed via the kernel virtual mapping,
and this is not guaranteed for the startup code residing in .head.text.
This is therefore a true positive, that was caught using the recently
introduced relocs check for absolute references in the startup code:
Absolute reference to symbol '__ref_stack_chk_guard' not permitted in .head.text
Work around the issue by disabling the stack protector in the startup
code for Clang versions older than 17.

X86_FEATURE_CONSTANT_TSC is a Linux-defined, synthesized feature flag.
It is used across several vendors. Intel CPUs will set the feature when
the architectural CPUID.80000007.EDX[1] bit is set. There are also some
Intel CPUs that have the X86_FEATURE_CONSTANT_TSC behavior but don't
enumerate it with the architectural bit. Those currently have a model
range check.
Today, virtually all of the CPUs that have the CPUID bit *also* match
the "model >= 0x0e" check. This is confusing. Instead of an open-ended
check, pick some models (INTEL_IVYBRIDGE and P4_WILLAMETTE) as the end
of goofy CPUs that should enumerate the bit but don't. These models are
relatively arbitrary but conservative pick for this.
This makes it obvious that later CPUs (like Family 18+) no longer need
to synthesize X86_FEATURE_CONSTANT_TSC.

X86_FEATURE_REP_GOOD is a linux defined feature flag to track whether
fast string operations should be used for copy_page(). It is also used
as a second alternative for clear_page() if enhanced fast string
operations (ERMS) are not available.
X86_FEATURE_ERMS is an Intel-specific hardware-defined feature flag that
tracks hardware support for Enhanced Fast strings. It is used to track
whether Fast strings should be used for similar memory copy and memory
clearing operations.
On top of these, there is a FAST_STRING enable bit in the
IA32_MISC_ENABLE MSR. It is typically controlled by the BIOS to provide
a hint to the hardware and the OS on whether fast string operations are
preferred.
Commit:
161ec53c70 ("x86, mem, intel: Initialize Enhanced REP MOVSB/STOSB")
introduced a mechanism to honor the BIOS preference for fast string
operations and clear the above feature flags if needed.
Unfortunately, the current initialization code for Intel to set and
clear these bits is confusing at best and likely incorrect.
X86_FEATURE_REP_GOOD is cleared in early_init_intel() if
MISC_ENABLE.FAST_STRING is 0. But it gets set later on unconditionally
for all Family 6 processors in init_intel(). This not only overrides the
BIOS preference but also contradicts the earlier check.
Fix this by combining the related checks and always relying on the BIOS
provided preference for fast string operations. This simplification
makes sure the upcoming Intel Family 18 and 19 models are covered as
well.

Some old crusty CPUs need an extra delay that slows down booting. See
the comment above 'init_udelay' for details. Newer CPUs don't need the
delay.
Right now, for Intel, Family 6 and only Family 6 skips the delay. That
leaves out both the Family 15 (Pentium 4s) and brand new Family 18/19
models.
The omission of Family 15 (Pentium 4s) seems like an oversight and 18/19
do not need the delay.
Skip the delay on all Intel processors Family 6 and beyond.

Very old multiprocessor systems required a 10 msec delay between
asserting and de-asserting INIT but modern processors do not require
this delay.
Over time the usage of the "quirk" wording while setting the INIT delay
has become misleading. The code comments suggest that modern processors
need to be quirked, which clears the default init_udelay of 10 msec,
while legacy processors don't need the quirk and continue to use the
default init_udelay.
With a lot more modern processors, the wording should be inverted if at
all needed. Instead, simplify the comments and the code by getting rid
of "quirk" usage altogether and clarifying the following:
- Old legacy processors -> Set the "legacy" 10 msec delay
- Modern processors -> Do not set any delay
No functional change.
