There is no real reason to have a separate ASM entry point implementation
for the legacy INT 0x80 syscall emulation on 64-bit.
IDTENTRY provides all the functionality needed with the only difference
that it does not:
- save the syscall number (AX) into pt_regs::orig_ax
- set pt_regs::ax to -ENOSYS
Both can be done safely in the C code of an IDTENTRY before invoking any of
the syscall related functions which depend on this convention.
Aside of ASM code reduction this prepares for detecting and handling a
local APIC injected vector 0x80.

The INT 0x80 instruction is used for 32-bit x86 Linux syscalls. The
kernel expects to receive a software interrupt as a result of the INT
0x80 instruction. However, an external interrupt on the same vector
triggers the same handler.
The kernel interprets an external interrupt on vector 0x80 as a 32-bit
system call that came from userspace.
A VMM can inject external interrupts on any arbitrary vector at any
time. This remains true even for TDX and SEV guests where the VMM is
untrusted.
Put together, this allows an untrusted VMM to trigger int80 syscall
handling at any given point. The content of the guest register file at
that moment defines what syscall is triggered and its arguments. It
opens the guest OS to manipulation from the VMM side.
Disable 32-bit emulation by default for TDX and SEV. User can override
it with the ia32_emulation=y command line option.

Introduce several new KVM uAPIs to ultimately create a guest-first memory
subsystem within KVM, a.k.a. guest_memfd. Guest-first memory allows KVM
to provide features, enhancements, and optimizations that are kludgly
or outright impossible to implement in a generic memory subsystem.
The core KVM ioctl() for guest_memfd is KVM_CREATE_GUEST_MEMFD, which
similar to the generic memfd_create(), creates an anonymous file and
returns a file descriptor that refers to it. Again like "regular"
memfd files, guest_memfd files live in RAM, have volatile storage,
and are automatically released when the last reference is dropped.
The key differences between memfd files (and every other memory subystem)
is that guest_memfd files are bound to their owning virtual machine,
cannot be mapped, read, or written by userspace, and cannot be resized.
guest_memfd files do however support PUNCH_HOLE, which can be used to
convert a guest memory area between the shared and guest-private states.
A second KVM ioctl(), KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES, allows userspace to
specify attributes for a given page of guest memory. In the long term,
it will likely be extended to allow userspace to specify per-gfn RWX
protections, including allowing memory to be writable in the guest
without it also being writable in host userspace.
The immediate and driving use case for guest_memfd are Confidential
(CoCo) VMs, specifically AMD's SEV-SNP, Intel's TDX, and KVM's own pKVM.
For such use cases, being able to map memory into KVM guests without
requiring said memory to be mapped into the host is a hard requirement.
While SEV+ and TDX prevent untrusted software from reading guest private
data by encrypting guest memory, pKVM provides confidentiality and
integrity *without* relying on memory encryption. In addition, with
SEV-SNP and especially TDX, accessing guest private memory can be fatal
to the host, i.e. KVM must be prevent host userspace from accessing
guest memory irrespective of hardware behavior.
Long term, guest_memfd may be useful for use cases beyond CoCo VMs,
for example hardening userspace against unintentional accesses to guest
memory. As mentioned earlier, KVM's ABI uses userspace VMA protections to
define the allow guest protection (with an exception granted to mapping
guest memory executable), and similarly KVM currently requires the guest
mapping size to be a strict subset of the host userspace mapping size.
Decoupling the mappings sizes would allow userspace to precisely map
only what is needed and with the required permissions, without impacting
guest performance.
A guest-first memory subsystem also provides clearer line of sight to
things like a dedicated memory pool (for slice-of-hardware VMs) and
elimination of "struct page" (for offload setups where userspace _never_
needs to DMA from or into guest memory).
guest_memfd is the result of 3+ years of development and exploration;
taking on memory management responsibilities in KVM was not the first,
second, or even third choice for supporting CoCo VMs. But after many
failed attempts to avoid KVM-specific backing memory, and looking at
where things ended up, it is quite clear that of all approaches tried,
guest_memfd is the simplest, most robust, and most extensible, and the
right thing to do for KVM and the kernel at-large.
The "development cycle" for this version is going to be very short;
ideally, next week I will merge it as is in kvm/next, taking this through
the KVM tree for 6.8 immediately after the end of the merge window.
The series is still based on 6.6 (plus KVM changes for 6.7) so it
will require a small fixup for changes to get_file_rcu() introduced in
6.7 by commit 0ede61d8589c ("file: convert to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU").
The fixup will be done as part of the merge commit, and most of the text
above will become the commit message for the merge.
Pending post-merge work includes:
- hugepage support
- looking into using the restrictedmem framework for guest memory
- introducing a testing mechanism to poison memory, possibly using
the same memory attributes introduced here
- SNP and TDX support
There are two non-KVM patches buried in the middle of this series:
fs: Rename anon_inode_getfile_secure() and anon_inode_getfd_secure()
mm: Add AS_UNMOVABLE to mark mapping as completely unmovable
The first is small and mostly suggested-by Christian Brauner; the second
a bit less so but it was written by an mm person (Vlastimil Babka).

Add a new x86 VM type, KVM_X86_SW_PROTECTED_VM, to serve as a development
and testing vehicle for Confidential (CoCo) VMs, and potentially to even
become a "real" product in the distant future, e.g. a la pKVM.
The private memory support in KVM x86 is aimed at AMD's SEV-SNP and
Intel's TDX, but those technologies are extremely complex (understatement),
difficult to debug, don't support running as nested guests, and require
hardware that's isn't universally accessible. I.e. relying SEV-SNP or TDX
for maintaining guest private memory isn't a realistic option.
At the very least, KVM_X86_SW_PROTECTED_VM will enable a variety of
selftests for guest_memfd and private memory support without requiring
unique hardware.

Let x86 track the number of address spaces on a per-VM basis so that KVM
can disallow SMM memslots for confidential VMs. Confidentials VMs are
fundamentally incompatible with emulating SMM, which as the name suggests
requires being able to read and write guest memory and register state.
Disallowing SMM will simplify support for guest private memory, as KVM
will not need to worry about tracking memory attributes for multiple
address spaces (SMM is the only "non-default" address space across all
architectures).

Disallow creating hugepages with mixed memory attributes, e.g. shared
versus private, as mapping a hugepage in this case would allow the guest
to access memory with the wrong attributes, e.g. overlaying private memory
with a shared hugepage.
Tracking whether or not attributes are mixed via the existing
disallow_lpage field, but use the most significant bit in 'disallow_lpage'
to indicate a hugepage has mixed attributes instead using the normal
refcounting. Whether or not attributes are mixed is binary; either they
are or they aren't. Attempting to squeeze that info into the refcount is
unnecessarily complex as it would require knowing the previous state of
the mixed count when updating attributes. Using a flag means KVM just
needs to ensure the current status is reflected in the memslots.

Convert KVM_ARCH_WANT_MMU_NOTIFIER into a Kconfig and select it where
appropriate to effectively maintain existing behavior. Using a proper
Kconfig will simplify building more functionality on top of KVM's
mmu_notifier infrastructure.
Add a forward declaration of kvm_gfn_range to kvm_types.h so that
including arch/powerpc/include/asm/kvm_ppc.h's with CONFIG_KVM=n doesn't
generate warnings due to kvm_gfn_range being undeclared. PPC defines
hooks for PR vs. HV without guarding them via #ifdeffery, e.g.
bool (*unmap_gfn_range)(struct kvm *kvm, struct kvm_gfn_range *range);
bool (*age_gfn)(struct kvm *kvm, struct kvm_gfn_range *range);
bool (*test_age_gfn)(struct kvm *kvm, struct kvm_gfn_range *range);
bool (*set_spte_gfn)(struct kvm *kvm, struct kvm_gfn_range *range);
Alternatively, PPC could forward declare kvm_gfn_range, but there's no
good reason not to define it in common KVM.

The Processor capability bits notify ACPI of the OS capabilities, and
so ACPI can adjust the return of other Processor methods taking the OS
capabilities into account.
When Linux is running as a Xen dom0, the hypervisor is the entity
in charge of processor power management, and hence Xen needs to make
sure the capabilities reported by _OSC/_PDC match the capabilities of
the driver in Xen.
Introduce a small helper to sanitize the buffer when running as Xen
dom0.
When Xen supports HWP, this serves as the equivalent of commit
a21211672c9a ("ACPI / processor: Request native thermal interrupt
handling via _OSC") to avoid SMM crashes. Xen will set bit
ACPI_PROC_CAP_COLLAB_PROC_PERF (bit 12) in the capability bits and the
_OSC/_PDC call will apply it.

Pull unified attestation reporting from Dan Williams:
"In an ideal world there would be a cross-vendor standard attestation
report format for confidential guests along with a common device
definition to act as the transport.
In the real world the situation ended up with multiple platform
vendors inventing their own attestation report formats with the
SEV-SNP implementation being a first mover to define a custom
sev-guest character device and corresponding ioctl(). Later, this
configfs-tsm proposal intercepted an attempt to add a tdx-guest
character device and a corresponding new ioctl(). It also anticipated
ARM and RISC-V showing up with more chardevs and more ioctls().
The proposal takes for granted that Linux tolerates the vendor report
format differentiation until a standard arrives. From talking with
folks involved, it sounds like that standardization work is unlikely
to resolve anytime soon. It also takes the position that kernfs ABIs
are easier to maintain than ioctl(). The result is a shared configfs
mechanism to return per-vendor report-blobs with the option to later
support a standard when that arrives.
Part of the goal here also is to get the community into the
"uncomfortable, but beneficial to the long term maintainability of the
kernel" state of talking to each other about their differentiation and
opportunities to collaborate. Think of this like the device-driver
equivalent of the common memory-management infrastructure for
confidential-computing being built up in KVM.
As for establishing an "upstream path for cross-vendor
confidential-computing device driver infrastructure" this is something
I want to discuss at Plumbers. At present, the multiple vendor
proposals for assigning devices to confidential computing VMs likely
needs a new dedicated repository and maintainer team, but that is a
discussion for v6.8.
For now, Greg and Thomas have acked this approach and this is passing
is AMD, Intel, and Google tests.
Summary:
- Introduce configfs-tsm as a shared ABI for confidential computing
attestation reports
- Convert sev-guest to additionally support configfs-tsm alongside
its vendor specific ioctl()
- Added signed attestation report retrieval to the tdx-guest driver
forgoing a new vendor specific ioctl()
- Misc cleanups and a new __free() annotation for kvfree()"

Pull x86 microcode loading updates from Borislac Petkov:
"Major microcode loader restructuring, cleanup and improvements by
Thomas Gleixner:
- Restructure the code needed for it and add a temporary initrd
mapping on 32-bit so that the loader can access the microcode
blobs. This in itself is a preparation for the next major
improvement:
- Do not load microcode on 32-bit before paging has been enabled.
Handling this has caused an endless stream of headaches, issues,
ugly code and unnecessary hacks in the past. And there really
wasn't any sensible reason to do that in the first place. So switch
the 32-bit loading to happen after paging has been enabled and turn
the loader code "real purrty" again
- Drop mixed microcode steppings loading on Intel - there, a single
patch loaded on the whole system is sufficient
- Rework late loading to track which CPUs have updated microcode
successfully and which haven't, act accordingly
- Move late microcode loading on Intel in NMI context in order to
guarantee concurrent loading on all threads
- Make the late loading CPU-hotplug-safe and have the offlined
threads be woken up for the purpose of the update
- Add support for a minimum revision which determines whether late
microcode loading is safe on a machine and the microcode does not
change software visible features which the machine cannot use
anyway since feature detection has happened already. Roughly, the
minimum revision is the smallest revision number which must be
loaded currently on the system so that late updates can be allowed
- Other nice leanups, fixess, etc all over the place"

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"ARM:
- Generalized infrastructure for 'writable' ID registers, effectively
allowing userspace to opt-out of certain vCPU features for its
guest
- Optimization for vSGI injection, opportunistically compressing
MPIDR to vCPU mapping into a table
- Improvements to KVM's PMU emulation, allowing userspace to select
the number of PMCs available to a VM
- Guest support for memory operation instructions (FEAT_MOPS)
- Cleanups to handling feature flags in KVM_ARM_VCPU_INIT, squashing
bugs and getting rid of useless code
- Changes to the way the SMCCC filter is constructed, avoiding wasted
memory allocations when not in use
- Load the stage-2 MMU context at vcpu_load() for VHE systems,
reducing the overhead of errata mitigations
- Miscellaneous kernel and selftest fixes
LoongArch:
- New architecture for kvm.
The hardware uses the same model as x86, s390 and RISC-V, where
guest/host mode is orthogonal to supervisor/user mode. The
virtualization extensions are very similar to MIPS, therefore the
code also has some similarities but it's been cleaned up to avoid
some of the historical bogosities that are found in arch/mips. The
kernel emulates MMU, timer and CSR accesses, while interrupt
controllers are only emulated in userspace, at least for now.
RISC-V:
- Support for the Smstateen and Zicond extensions
- Support for virtualizing senvcfg
- Support for virtualized SBI debug console (DBCN)
S390:
- Nested page table management can be monitored through tracepoints
and statistics
x86:
- Fix incorrect handling of VMX posted interrupt descriptor in
KVM_SET_LAPIC, which could result in a dropped timer IRQ
- Avoid WARN on systems with Intel IPI virtualization
- Add CONFIG_KVM_MAX_NR_VCPUS, to allow supporting up to 4096 vCPUs
without forcing more common use cases to eat the extra memory
overhead.
- Add virtualization support for AMD SRSO mitigation (IBPB_BRTYPE and
SBPB, aka Selective Branch Predictor Barrier).
- Fix a bug where restoring a vCPU snapshot that was taken within 1
second of creating the original vCPU would cause KVM to try to
synchronize the vCPU's TSC and thus clobber the correct TSC being
set by userspace.
- Compute guest wall clock using a single TSC read to avoid
generating an inaccurate time, e.g. if the vCPU is preempted
between multiple TSC reads.
- "Virtualize" HWCR.TscFreqSel to make Linux guests happy, which
complain about a "Firmware Bug" if the bit isn't set for select
F/M/S combos. Likewise "virtualize" (ignore) MSR_AMD64_TW_CFG to
appease Windows Server 2022.
- Don't apply side effects to Hyper-V's synthetic timer on writes
from userspace to fix an issue where the auto-enable behavior can
trigger spurious interrupts, i.e. do auto-enabling only for guest
writes.
- Remove an unnecessary kick of all vCPUs when synchronizing the
dirty log without PML enabled.
- Advertise "support" for non-serializing FS/GS base MSR writes as
appropriate.
- Harden the fast page fault path to guard against encountering an
invalid root when walking SPTEs.
- Omit "struct kvm_vcpu_xen" entirely when CONFIG_KVM_XEN=n.
- Use the fast path directly from the timer callback when delivering
Xen timer events, instead of waiting for the next iteration of the
run loop. This was not done so far because previously proposed code
had races, but now care is taken to stop the hrtimer at critical
points such as restarting the timer or saving the timer information
for userspace.
- Follow the lead of upstream Xen and ignore the VCPU_SSHOTTMR_future
flag.
- Optimize injection of PMU interrupts that are simultaneous with
NMIs.
- Usual handful of fixes for typos and other warts.
x86 - MTRR/PAT fixes and optimizations:
- Clean up code that deals with honoring guest MTRRs when the VM has
non-coherent DMA and host MTRRs are ignored, i.e. EPT is enabled.
- Zap EPT entries when non-coherent DMA assignment stops/start to
prevent using stale entries with the wrong memtype.
- Don't ignore guest PAT for CR0.CD=1 && KVM_X86_QUIRK_CD_NW_CLEARED=y
This was done as a workaround for virtual machine BIOSes that did
not bother to clear CR0.CD (because ancient KVM/QEMU did not bother
to set it, in turn), and there's zero reason to extend the quirk to
also ignore guest PAT.
x86 - SEV fixes:
- Report KVM_EXIT_SHUTDOWN instead of EINVAL if KVM intercepts
SHUTDOWN while running an SEV-ES guest.
- Clean up the recognition of emulation failures on SEV guests, when
KVM would like to "skip" the instruction but it had already been
partially emulated. This makes it possible to drop a hack that
second guessed the (insufficient) information provided by the
emulator, and just do the right thing.
Documentation:
- Various updates and fixes, mostly for x86
- MTRR and PAT fixes and optimizations"

KVM x86 APIC changes for 6.7:
- Purge VMX's posted interrupt descriptor *before* loading APIC state when
handling KVM_SET_LAPIC. Purging the PID after loading APIC state results in
lost APIC timer IRQs as the APIC timer can be armed as part of loading APIC
state, i.e. can immediately pend an IRQ if the expiry is in the past.
- Clear the ICR.BUSY bit when handling trap-like x2APIC writes. This avoids a
WARN, due to KVM expecting the BUSY bit to be cleared when sending IPIs.

Pull x86 core updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Limit the hardcoded topology quirk for Hygon CPUs to those which have
a model ID less than 4.
The newer models have the topology CPUID leaf 0xB correctly
implemented and are not affected.
- Make SMT control more robust against enumeration failures
SMT control was added to allow controlling SMT at boottime or
runtime. The primary purpose was to provide a simple mechanism to
disable SMT in the light of speculation attack vectors.
It turned out that the code is sensible to enumeration failures and
worked only by chance for XEN/PV. XEN/PV has no real APIC enumeration
which means the primary thread mask is not set up correctly. By
chance a XEN/PV boot ends up with smp_num_siblings == 2, which makes
the hotplug control stay at its default value "enabled". So the mask
is never evaluated.
The ongoing rework of the topology evaluation caused XEN/PV to end up
with smp_num_siblings == 1, which sets the SMT control to "not
supported" and the empty primary thread mask causes the hotplug core
to deny the bringup of the APS.
Make the decision logic more robust and take 'not supported' and 'not
implemented' into account for the decision whether a CPU should be
booted or not.
- Fake primary thread mask for XEN/PV
Pretend that all XEN/PV vCPUs are primary threads, which makes the
usage of the primary thread mask valid on XEN/PV. That is consistent
with because all of the topology information on XEN/PV is fake or
even non-existent.
- Encapsulate topology information in cpuinfo_x86
Move the randomly scattered topology data into a separate data
structure for readability and as a preparatory step for the topology
evaluation overhaul.
- Consolidate APIC ID data type to u32
It's fixed width hardware data and not randomly u16, int, unsigned
long or whatever developers decided to use.
- Cure the abuse of cpuinfo for persisting logical IDs.
Per CPU cpuinfo is used to persist the logical package and die IDs.
That's really not the right place simply because cpuinfo is subject
to be reinitialized when a CPU goes through an offline/online cycle.
Use separate per CPU data for the persisting to enable the further
topology management rework. It will be removed once the new topology
management is in place.
- Provide a debug interface for inspecting topology information
Useful in general and extremly helpful for validating the topology
management rework in terms of correctness or "bug" compatibility.

Pull x86 APIC updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Make the quirk for non-maskable MSI interrupts in the affinity setter
functional again.
It was broken by a MSI core code update, which restructured the code
in a way that the quirk flag was not longer set correctly.
Trying to restore the core logic caused a deeper inspection and it
turned out that the extra quirk flag is not required at all because
it's the inverse of the reservation mode bit, which only can be set
when the MSI interrupt is maskable.
So the trivial fix is to use the reservation mode check in the
affinity setter function and remove almost 40 lines of code related
to the no-mask quirk flag.
- Cure a Kconfig dependency issue which causes compile failures by
correcting the conditionals in the affected header files.
- Clean up coding style in the UV APIC driver.

David and a few others reported that on certain newer systems some legacy
interrupts fail to work correctly.
Debugging revealed that the BIOS of these systems leaves the legacy PIC in
uninitialized state which makes the PIC detection fail and the kernel
switches to a dummy implementation.
Unfortunately this fallback causes quite some code to fail as it depends on
checks for the number of legacy PIC interrupts or the availability of the
real PIC.
In theory there is no reason to use the PIC on any modern system when
IO/APIC is available, but the dependencies on the related checks cannot be
resolved trivially and on short notice. This needs lots of analysis and
rework.
The PIC detection has been added to avoid quirky checks and force selection
of the dummy implementation all over the place, especially in VM guest
scenarios. So it's not an option to revert the relevant commit as that
would break a lot of other scenarios.
One solution would be to try to initialize the PIC on detection fail and
retry the detection, but that puts the burden on everything which does not
have a PIC.
Fortunately the ACPI/MADT table header has a flag field, which advertises
in bit 0 that the system is PCAT compatible, which means it has a legacy
8259 PIC.
Evaluate that bit and if set avoid the detection routine and keep the real
PIC installed, which then gets initialized (for nothing) and makes the rest
of the code with all the dependencies work again.

In general users, don't have the necessary information to determine
whether late loading of a new microcode version is safe and does not
modify anything which the currently running kernel uses already, e.g.
removal of CPUID bits or behavioural changes of MSRs.
To address this issue, Intel has added a "minimum required version"
field to a previously reserved field in the microcode header. Microcode
updates should only be applied if the current microcode version is equal
to, or greater than this minimum required version.
Thomas made some suggestions on how meta-data in the microcode file could
provide Linux with information to decide if the new microcode is suitable
candidate for late loading. But even the "simpler" option requires a lot of
metadata and corresponding kernel code to parse it, so the final suggestion
was to add the 'minimum required version' field in the header.
When microcode changes visible features, microcode will set the minimum
required version to its own revision which prevents late loading.
Old microcode blobs have the minimum revision field always set to 0, which
indicates that there is no information and the kernel considers it
unsafe.
This is a pure OS software mechanism. The hardware/firmware ignores this
header field.
For early loading there is no restriction because OS visible features
are enumerated after the early load and therefore a change has no
effect.
The check is always enabled, but by default not enforced. It can be
enforced via Kconfig or kernel command line.
If enforced, the kernel refuses to late load microcode with a minimum
required version field which is zero or when the currently loaded
microcode revision is smaller than the minimum required revision.
If not enforced the load happens independent of the revision check to
stay compatible with the existing behaviour, but it influences the
decision whether the kernel is tainted or not. If the check signals that
the late load is safe, then the kernel is not tainted.
Early loading is not affected by this.

Offline CPUs need to be parked in a safe loop when microcode update is
in progress on the primary CPU. Currently, offline CPUs are parked in
mwait_play_dead(), and for Intel CPUs, its not a safe instruction,
because the MWAIT instruction can be patched in the new microcode update
that can cause instability.
- Add a new microcode state 'UCODE_OFFLINE' to report status on per-CPU
basis.
- Force NMI on the offline CPUs.
Wake up offline CPUs while the update is in progress and then return
them back to mwait_play_dead() after microcode update is complete.

When SMT siblings are soft-offlined and parked in one of the play_dead()
variants they still react on NMI, which is problematic on affected Intel
CPUs. The default play_dead() variant uses MWAIT on modern CPUs, which is
not guaranteed to be safe when updated concurrently.
Right now late loading is prevented when not all SMT siblings are online,
but as they still react on NMI, it is possible to bring them out of their
park position into a trivial rendezvous handler.
Provide a function which allows to do that. I does sanity checks whether
the target is in the cpus_booted_once_mask and whether the APIC driver
supports it.
Mark X2APIC and XAPIC as capable, but exclude 32bit and the UV and NUMACHIP
variants as that needs feedback from the relevant experts.

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