[ Upstream commit 8c7ab779c8850f4dab8473463cca9a7d52fdaecc ]

lockdep_hardirq_threaded() is supposed to be used within IRQ core code
and not within drivers. It is not obvious from within the driver, that
this is the only interrupt service routing and that it is not shared
handler.

Replace lockdep_hardirq_threaded() with a lockdep annotation limiting
threaded context on PREEMPT_RT to __vmbus_isr().

[ Upstream commit 331d8900121a1d74ecd45cd2db742ddcb5a0a565 ]

When a driver is probed through __driver_attach(), the bus' match()
callback is called without the device lock held, thus accessing the
driver_override field without a lock, which can cause a UAF.

Fix this by using the driver-core driver_override infrastructure taking
care of proper locking internally.

Note that calling match() from __driver_attach() without the device lock
held is intentional. [1]

<title>Drivers: hv: vmbus: Improve the logic of reserving fb_mmio on Gen2 VMs</title>

[ Upstream commit 016a25e4b0df4d77e7c258edee4aaf982e4ee809 ]

If vmbus_reserve_fb() in the kdump/kexec kernel fails to properly reserve
the framebuffer MMIO range (which is below 4GB) due to a Gen2 VM's
screen.lfb_base being zero [1], there is an MMIO conflict between the
drivers hyperv-drm and pci-hyperv: when the driver pci-hyperv's
hv_allocate_config_window() calls vmbus_allocate_mmio() to get an
MMIO range, typically it gets a 32-bit MMIO range that overlaps with the
framebuffer MMIO range, and later hv_pci_enter_d0() fails with an
error message "PCI Pass-through VSP failed D0 Entry with status" since
the host thinks that PCI devices must not use MMIO space that the
host has assigned to the framebuffer.

This is especially an issue if pci-hyperv is built-in and hyperv-drm is
built as a module. Consequently, the kdump/kexec kernel fails to detect
PCI devices via pci-hyperv, and may fail to mount the root file system,
which may reside in a NVMe disk. The issue described here has existed
for SR-IOV VF NICs since day one of the pci-hyperv driver, and has been
worked around on x64 when possible. With the recent introduction of
ARM64 VMs that boot from NVMe, there is no workaround, so we need a
formal fix.

On Gen2 VMs, if the screen.lfb_base is 0 in the kdump/kexec kernel [1],
fall back to the low MMIO base, which should be equal to the framebuffer
MMIO base [2] (the statement is true according to my testing on x64
Windows Server 2016, and on x64 and ARM64 Windows Server 2025 and on
Azure. I checked with the Hyper-V team and they said the statement should
continue to be true for Gen2 VMs). In the first kernel, screen.lfb_base
is not 0; if the user specifies a very high resolution, it's not enough
to only reserve 8MB: let's always reserve half of the space below 4GB,
but cap the reservation to 128MB, which is the required framebuffer size
of the highest resolution 7680*4320 supported by Hyper-V.

While at it, fix the comparison "end &gt; VTPM_BASE_ADDRESS" by changing
the &gt; to &gt;=. Here the 'end' is an inclusive end (typically, it's
0xFFFF_FFFF for the low MMIO range).

Note: vmbus_reserve_fb() now also reserves an MMIO range at the beginning
of the low MMIO range on CVMs, which have no framebuffers (the
'screen.lfb_base' in vmbus_reserve_fb() is 0 for CVMs), just in case the
host might treat the beginning of the low MMIO range specially [3]. BTW,
the OpenHCL kernel is not affected by the change, because that kernel
boots with DeviceTree rather than ACPI (so vmbus_reserve_fb() won't run
there), and there is no framebuffer device for that kernel.

Note: normally Gen1 VMs don't have the MMIO conflict issue because the
framebuffer MMIO range (which is hardcoded to base=4GB-128MB and
size=64MB for Gen1 VMs by the host) is always reported via the legacy PCI
graphics device's BAR, so the kdump/kexec kernel can reserve the 64MB
MMIO range; however, if the VM is configured to use a very high resolution
and the required framebuffer size exceeds 64MB (AFAIK, in practice, this
isn't a typical configuration by users), the hyperv-drm driver may need to
allocate an MMIO range above 4GB and change the framebuffer MMIO location
to the allocated MMIO range -- in this case, there can still be issues [4]
which can't be easily fixed: any possible affected Gen1 users would have
to use a resolution whose framebuffer size is &lt;= 64MB, or switch to Gen2
VMs.

As code paths that handle vmbus IRQs use sleepy locks under PREEMPT_RT,
the vmbus_isr execution needs to be moved into thread context. Open-
coding this allows to skip the IPI that irq_work would additionally
bring and which we do not need, being an IRQ, never an NMI.

This affects both x86 and arm64, therefore hook into the common driver
logic.

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 49f49d47af67f8a7b221db1d758fc634242dc91a ]

hv_kmsg_dump() currently skips the panic notification entirely if it
doesn't get any message bytes to pass to Hyper-V due to an error from
kmsg_dump_get_buffer(). Skipping the notification is undesirable because
it leaves the Hyper-V host uncertain about the state of a panic'ed guest.

Fix this by always doing the panic notification, even if bytes_written
is zero. Also ensure that bytes_written is initialized, which fixes a
kernel test robot warning. The warning is actually bogus because
kmsg_dump_get_buffer() happens to set bytes_written even if it fails, and
in the kernel test robot's CONFIG_PRINTK not set case, hv_kmsg_dump() is
never called. But do the initialization for robustness and to quiet the
static checker.

commit 65995e97a1caacf0024bebda3332b8d1f0f443c4 upstream.

The ring buffer size varies across VMBus channels. The size of sysfs
node for the ring buffer is currently hardcoded to 4 MB. Userspace
clients either use fstat() or hardcode this size for doing mmap().
To address this, make the sysfs node size dynamic to reflect the
actual ring buffer size for each channel. This will ensure that
fstat() on ring sysfs node always returns the correct size of
ring buffer.

There are use cases that interrupt and monitor pages are mapped to
user-mode through UIO, so they need to be system page aligned. Some
Hyper-V allocation APIs introduced earlier broke those requirements.

Fix this by using page allocation functions directly for interrupt

commit 380b75d3078626aadd0817de61f3143f5db6e393 upstream.

vmbus_sendpacket_mpb_desc() is currently used only by the storvsc driver
and is hardcoded to create a single GPA range. To allow it to also be
used by the netvsc driver to create multiple GPA ranges, no longer
hardcode as having a single GPA range. Allow the calling driver to
specify the rangecount in the supplied descriptor.

Update the storvsc driver to reflect this new approach.
