[ Upstream commit 1a726cb47fd204109c767409fa9ca15a96328f14 ]

The call to get_user_pages_fast() in vmci_host_setup_notify() can return
NULL context-&gt;notify_page causing a GPF. To avoid GPF check if
context-&gt;notify_page == NULL and return error if so.

general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address

<title>VMCI: Use threaded irqs instead of tasklets</title>

<content type='text'>
The vmci_dispatch_dgs() tasklet function calls vmci_read_data()
which uses wait_event() resulting in invalid sleep in an atomic
context (and therefore potentially in a deadlock).

Use threaded irqs to fix this issue and completely remove usage
of tasklets.

READ/WRITE proved to be actively confusing - the meanings are
"data destination, as used with read(2)" and "data source, as
used with write(2)", but people keep interpreting those as
"we read data from it" and "we write data to it", i.e. exactly
the wrong way.

Call them ITER_DEST and ITER_SOURCE - at least that is harder
to misinterpret...

<id>urn:sha1:dd8dc442c1e3b1798fad61211f3b090523dd926d</id>
<content type='text'>
kmap() is being deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page().

There are two main problems with kmap(): (1) It comes with an overhead as
the mapping space is restricted and protected by a global lock for
synchronization and (2) it also requires global TLB invalidation when the
kmap’s pool wraps and it might block when the mapping space is fully
utilized until a slot becomes available.

With kmap_local_page() the mappings are per thread, CPU local, can take
page faults, and can be called from any context (including interrupts).
It is faster than kmap() in kernels with HIGHMEM enabled. Furthermore,
the tasks can be preempted and, when they are scheduled to run again, the
kernel virtual addresses are restored and still valid.

Since its use in vmci_queue_pair.c is safe everywhere, replace kmap() with
kmap_local_page().

Add support for ARM64 architecture so that the driver can now be built
and VMCI device can be used.

Update Kconfig file to allow the driver to be built on ARM64 as well.
Fail vmci_guest_probe_device() on ARM64 if the device does not support
MMIO register access.  Lastly, add virtualization specific barriers
which map to actual memory barrier instructions on ARM64, because it
is required in case of ARM64 for queuepair (de)queuing.

To move the list iterator variable into the list_for_each_entry_*()
macro in the future it should be avoided to use the list iterator
variable after the loop body.

To *never* use the list iterator variable after the loop it was
concluded to use a separate iterator variable instead of a
found boolean [1].

This removes the need to use a found variable and simply checking if
the variable was set, can determine if the break/goto was hit.
