"INVALID" is misspelt in "SEV_RET_INAVLID_CONFIG". Since this is part of

Pull random number generator updates from Jason Donenfeld:
"This adds getrandom() support to the vDSO.
First, it adds a new kind of mapping to mmap(2), MAP_DROPPABLE, which
lets the kernel zero out pages anytime under memory pressure, which
enables allocating memory that never gets swapped to disk but also
doesn't count as being mlocked.
Then, the vDSO implementation of getrandom() is introduced in a
generic manner and hooked into random.c.
Next, this is implemented on x86. (Also, though it's not ready for
this pull, somebody has begun an arm64 implementation already)
Finally, two vDSO selftests are added.
There are also two housekeeping cleanup commits"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- In the series "mm: Avoid possible overflows in dirty throttling" Jan
Kara addresses a couple of issues in the writeback throttling code.
These fixes are also targetted at -stable kernels.
- Ryusuke Konishi's series "nilfs2: fix potential issues related to
reserved inodes" does that. This should actually be in the
mm-nonmm-stable tree, along with the many other nilfs2 patches. My
bad.
- More folio conversions from Kefeng Wang in the series "mm: convert to
folio_alloc_mpol()"
- Kemeng Shi has sent some cleanups to the writeback code in the series
"Add helper functions to remove repeated code and improve readability
of cgroup writeback"
- Kairui Song has made the swap code a little smaller and a little
faster in the series "mm/swap: clean up and optimize swap cache
index".
- In the series "mm/memory: cleanly support zeropage in
vm_insert_page*(), vm_map_pages*() and vmf_insert_mixed()" David
Hildenbrand has reworked the rather sketchy handling of the use of
the zeropage in MAP_SHARED mappings. I don't see any runtime effects
here - more a cleanup/understandability/maintainablity thing.
- Dev Jain has improved selftests/mm/va_high_addr_switch.c's handling
of higher addresses, for aarch64. The (poorly named) series is
"Restructure va_high_addr_switch".
- The core TLB handling code gets some cleanups and possible slight
optimizations in Bang Li's series "Add update_mmu_tlb_range() to
simplify code".
- Jane Chu has improved the handling of our
fake-an-unrecoverable-memory-error testing feature MADV_HWPOISON in
the series "Enhance soft hwpoison handling and injection".
- Jeff Johnson has sent a billion patches everywhere to add
MODULE_DESCRIPTION() to everything. Some landed in this pull.
- In the series "mm: cleanup MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY mode", Kefeng Wang
has simplified migration's use of hardware-offload memory copying.
- Yosry Ahmed performs more folio API conversions in his series "mm:
zswap: trivial folio conversions".
- In the series "large folios swap-in: handle refault cases first",
Chuanhua Han inches us forward in the handling of large pages in the
swap code. This is a cleanup and optimization, working toward the end
objective of full support of large folio swapin/out.
- In the series "mm,swap: cleanup VMA based swap readahead window
calculation", Huang Ying has contributed some cleanups and a possible
fixlet to his VMA based swap readahead code.
- In the series "add mTHP support for anonymous shmem" Baolin Wang has
taught anonymous shmem mappings to use multisize THP. By default this
is a no-op - users must opt in vis sysfs controls. Dramatic
improvements in pagefault latency are realized.
- David Hildenbrand has some cleanups to our remaining use of
page_mapcount() in the series "fs/proc: move page_mapcount() to
fs/proc/internal.h".
- David also has some highmem accounting cleanups in the series
"mm/highmem: don't track highmem pages manually".
- Build-time fixes and cleanups from John Hubbard in the series
"cleanups, fixes, and progress towards avoiding "make headers"".
- Cleanups and consolidation of the core pagemap handling from Barry
Song in the series "mm: introduce pmd|pte_needs_soft_dirty_wp helpers
and utilize them".
- Lance Yang's series "Reclaim lazyfree THP without splitting" has
reduced the latency of the reclaim of pmd-mapped THPs under fairly
common circumstances. A 10x speedup is seen in a microbenchmark.
It does this by punting to aother CPU but I guess that's a win unless
all CPUs are pegged.
- hugetlb_cgroup cleanups from Xiu Jianfeng in the series
"mm/hugetlb_cgroup: rework on cftypes".
- Miaohe Lin's series "Some cleanups for memory-failure" does just that
thing.
- Someone other than SeongJae has developed a DAMON feature in Honggyu
Kim's series "DAMON based tiered memory management for CXL memory".
This adds DAMON features which may be used to help determine the
efficiency of our placement of CXL/PCIe attached DRAM.
- DAMON user API centralization and simplificatio work in SeongJae
Park's series "mm/damon: introduce DAMON parameters online commit
function".
- In the series "mm: page_type, zsmalloc and page_mapcount_reset()"
David Hildenbrand does some maintenance work on zsmalloc - partially
modernizing its use of pageframe fields.
- Kefeng Wang provides more folio conversions in the series "mm: remove
page_maybe_dma_pinned() and page_mkclean()".
- More cleanup from David Hildenbrand, this time in the series
"mm/memory_hotplug: use PageOffline() instead of PageReserved() for
!ZONE_DEVICE". It "enlightens memory hotplug more about PageOffline()
pages" and permits the removal of some virtio-mem hacks.
- Barry Song's series "mm: clarify folio_add_new_anon_rmap() and
__folio_add_anon_rmap()" is a cleanup to the anon folio handling in
preparation for mTHP (multisize THP) swapin.
- Kefeng Wang's series "mm: improve clear and copy user folio"
implements more folio conversions, this time in the area of large
folio userspace copying.
- The series "Docs/mm/damon/maintaier-profile: document a mailing tool
and community meetup series" tells people how to get better involved
with other DAMON developers. From SeongJae Park.
- A large series ("kmsan: Enable on s390") from Ilya Leoshkevich does
that.
- David Hildenbrand sends along more cleanups, this time against the
migration code. The series is "mm/migrate: move NUMA hinting fault
folio isolation + checks under PTL".
- Jan Kara has found quite a lot of strangenesses and minor errors in
the readahead code. He addresses this in the series "mm: Fix various
readahead quirks".
- SeongJae Park's series "selftests/damon: test DAMOS tried regions and
{min,max}_nr_regions" adds features and addresses errors in DAMON's
self testing code.
- Gavin Shan has found a userspace-triggerable WARN in the pagecache
code. The series "mm/filemap: Limit page cache size to that supported
by xarray" addresses this. The series is marked cc:stable.
- Chengming Zhou's series "mm/ksm: cmp_and_merge_page() optimizations
and cleanup" cleans up and slightly optimizes KSM.
- Roman Gushchin has separated the memcg-v1 and memcg-v2 code - lots of
code motion. The series (which also makes the memcg-v1 code
Kconfigurable) are "mm: memcg: separate legacy cgroup v1 code and put
under config option" and "mm: memcg: put cgroup v1-specific memcg
data under CONFIG_MEMCG_V1"
- Dan Schatzberg's series "Add swappiness argument to memory.reclaim"
adds an additional feature to this cgroup-v2 control file.
- The series "Userspace controls soft-offline pages" from Jiaqi Yan
permits userspace to stop the kernel's automatic treatment of
excessive correctable memory errors. In order to permit userspace to
monitor and handle this situation.
- Kefeng Wang's series "mm: migrate: support poison recover from
migrate folio" teaches the kernel to appropriately handle migration
from poisoned source folios rather than simply panicing.
- SeongJae Park's series "Docs/damon: minor fixups and improvements"
does those things.
- In the series "mm/zsmalloc: change back to per-size_class lock"
Chengming Zhou improves zsmalloc's scalability and memory
utilization.
- Vivek Kasireddy's series "mm/gup: Introduce memfd_pin_folios() for
pinning memfd folios" makes the GUP code use FOLL_PIN rather than
bare refcount increments. So these paes can first be moved aside if
they reside in the movable zone or a CMA block.
- Andrii Nakryiko has added a binary ioctl()-based API to
/proc/pid/maps for much faster reading of vma information. The series
is "query VMAs from /proc/<pid>/maps".
- In the series "mm: introduce per-order mTHP split counters" Lance
Yang improves the kernel's presentation of developer information
related to multisize THP splitting.
- Michael Ellerman has developed the series "Reimplement huge pages
without hugepd on powerpc (8xx, e500, book3s/64)". This permits
userspace to use all available huge page sizes.
- In the series "revert unconditional slab and page allocator fault
injection calls" Vlastimil Babka removes a performance-affecting and
not very useful feature from slab fault injection.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"ARM:
- Initial infrastructure for shadow stage-2 MMUs, as part of nested
virtualization enablement
- Support for userspace changes to the guest CTR_EL0 value, enabling
(in part) migration of VMs between heterogenous hardware
- Fixes + improvements to pKVM's FF-A proxy, adding support for v1.1
of the protocol
- FPSIMD/SVE support for nested, including merged trap configuration
and exception routing
- New command-line parameter to control the WFx trap behavior under
KVM
- Introduce kCFI hardening in the EL2 hypervisor
- Fixes + cleanups for handling presence/absence of FEAT_TCRX
- Miscellaneous fixes + documentation updates
LoongArch:
- Add paravirt steal time support
- Add support for KVM_DIRTY_LOG_INITIALLY_SET
- Add perf kvm-stat support for loongarch
RISC-V:
- Redirect AMO load/store access fault traps to guest
- perf kvm stat support
- Use guest files for IMSIC virtualization, when available
s390:
- Assortment of tiny fixes which are not time critical
x86:
- Fixes for Xen emulation
- Add a global struct to consolidate tracking of host values, e.g.
EFER
- Add KVM_CAP_X86_APIC_BUS_CYCLES_NS to allow configuring the
effective APIC bus frequency, because TDX
- Print the name of the APICv/AVIC inhibits in the relevant
tracepoint
- Clean up KVM's handling of vendor specific emulation to
consistently act on "compatible with Intel/AMD", versus checking
for a specific vendor
- Drop MTRR virtualization, and instead always honor guest PAT on
CPUs that support self-snoop
- Update to the newfangled Intel CPU FMS infrastructure
- Don't advertise IA32_PERF_GLOBAL_OVF_CTRL as an MSR-to-be-saved, as
it reads '0' and writes from userspace are ignored
- Misc cleanups
x86 - MMU:
- Small cleanups, renames and refactoring extracted from the upcoming
Intel TDX support
- Don't allocate kvm_mmu_page.shadowed_translation for shadow pages
that can't hold leafs SPTEs
- Unconditionally drop mmu_lock when allocating TDP MMU page tables
for eager page splitting, to avoid stalling vCPUs when splitting
huge pages
- Bug the VM instead of simply warning if KVM tries to split a SPTE
that is non-present or not-huge. KVM is guaranteed to end up in a
broken state because the callers fully expect a valid SPTE, it's
all but dangerous to let more MMU changes happen afterwards
x86 - AMD:
- Make per-CPU save_area allocations NUMA-aware
- Force sev_es_host_save_area() to be inlined to avoid calling into
an instrumentable function from noinstr code
- Base support for running SEV-SNP guests. API-wise, this includes a
new KVM_X86_SNP_VM type, encrypting/measure the initial image into
guest memory, and finalizing it before launching it. Internally,
there are some gmem/mmu hooks needed to prepare gmem-allocated
pages before mapping them into guest private memory ranges
This includes basic support for attestation guest requests, enough
to say that KVM supports the GHCB 2.0 specification
There is no support yet for loading into the firmware those signing
keys to be used for attestation requests, and therefore no need yet
for the host to provide certificate data for those keys.
To support fetching certificate data from userspace, a new KVM exit
type will be needed to handle fetching the certificate from
userspace.
An attempt to define a new KVM_EXIT_COCO / KVM_EXIT_COCO_REQ_CERTS
exit type to handle this was introduced in v1 of this patchset, but
is still being discussed by community, so for now this patchset
only implements a stub version of SNP Extended Guest Requests that
does not provide certificate data
x86 - Intel:
- Remove an unnecessary EPT TLB flush when enabling hardware
- Fix a series of bugs that cause KVM to fail to detect nested
pending posted interrupts as valid wake eents for a vCPU executing
HLT in L2 (with HLT-exiting disable by L1)
- KVM: x86: Suppress MMIO that is triggered during task switch
emulation
Explicitly suppress userspace emulated MMIO exits that are
triggered when emulating a task switch as KVM doesn't support
userspace MMIO during complex (multi-step) emulation
Silently ignoring the exit request can result in the
WARN_ON_ONCE(vcpu->mmio_needed) firing if KVM exits to userspace
for some other reason prior to purging mmio_needed
See commit 0dc902267cb3 ("KVM: x86: Suppress pending MMIO write
exits if emulator detects exception") for more details on KVM's
limitations with respect to emulated MMIO during complex emulator
flows
Generic:
- Rename the AS_UNMOVABLE flag that was introduced for KVM to
AS_INACCESSIBLE, because the special casing needed by these pages
is not due to just unmovability (and in fact they are only
unmovable because the CPU cannot access them)
- New ioctl to populate the KVM page tables in advance, which is
useful to mitigate KVM page faults during guest boot or after live
migration. The code will also be used by TDX, but (probably) not
through the ioctl
- Enable halt poll shrinking by default, as Intel found it to be a
clear win
- Setup empty IRQ routing when creating a VM to avoid having to
synchronize SRCU when creating a split IRQCHIP on x86
- Rework the sched_in/out() paths to replace kvm_arch_sched_in() with
a flag that arch code can use for hooking both sched_in() and
sched_out()
- Take the vCPU @id as an "unsigned long" instead of "u32" to avoid
truncating a bogus value from userspace, e.g. to help userspace
detect bugs
- Mark a vCPU as preempted if and only if it's scheduled out while in
the KVM_RUN loop, e.g. to avoid marking it preempted and thus
writing guest memory when retrieving guest state during live
migration blackout
Selftests:
- Remove dead code in the memslot modification stress test
- Treat "branch instructions retired" as supported on all AMD Family
17h+ CPUs
- Print the guest pseudo-RNG seed only when it changes, to avoid
spamming the log for tests that create lots of VMs

RNDGETPOOL was thankfully removed twenty years ago, but it's stuck
around in headers. Probably removing it from uapi headers isn't great in
case there are some weird users out there, but we should at least mark
this as having been removed, to save future readers the same goose chase
I just went on.

Provide a generic C vDSO getrandom() implementation, which operates on
an opaque state returned by vgetrandom_alloc() and produces random bytes
the same way as getrandom(). This has the following API signature:
ssize_t vgetrandom(void *buffer, size_t len, unsigned int flags,
void *opaque_state, size_t opaque_len);
The return value and the first three arguments are the same as ordinary
getrandom(), while the last two arguments are a pointer to the opaque
allocated state and its size. Were all five arguments passed to the
getrandom() syscall, nothing different would happen, and the functions
would have the exact same behavior.
The actual vDSO RNG algorithm implemented is the same one implemented by
drivers/char/random.c, using the same fast-erasure techniques as that.
Should the in-kernel implementation change, so too will the vDSO one.
It requires an implementation of ChaCha20 that does not use any stack,
in order to maintain forward secrecy if a multi-threaded program forks
(though this does not account for a similar issue with SA_SIGINFO
copying registers to the stack), so this is left as an
architecture-specific fill-in. Stack-less ChaCha20 is an easy algorithm
to implement on a variety of architectures, so this shouldn't be too
onerous.
Initially, the state is keyless, and so the first call makes a
getrandom() syscall to generate that key, and then uses it for
subsequent calls. By keeping track of a generation counter, it knows
when its key is invalidated and it should fetch a new one using the
syscall. Later, more than just a generation counter might be used.
Since MADV_WIPEONFORK is set on the opaque state, the key and related
state is wiped during a fork(), so secrets don't roll over into new
processes, and the same state doesn't accidentally generate the same
random stream. The generation counter, as well, is always >0, so that
the 0 counter is a useful indication of a fork() or otherwise
uninitialized state.
If the kernel RNG is not yet initialized, then the vDSO always calls the
syscall, because that behavior cannot be emulated in userspace, but
fortunately that state is short lived and only during early boot. If it
has been initialized, then there is no need to inspect the `flags`
argument, because the behavior does not change post-initialization
regardless of the `flags` value.
Since the opaque state passed to it is mutated, vDSO getrandom() is not
reentrant, when used with the same opaque state, which libc should be
mindful of.
The function works over an opaque per-thread state of a particular size,
which must be marked VM_WIPEONFORK, VM_DONTDUMP, VM_NORESERVE, and
VM_DROPPABLE for proper operation. Over time, the nuances of these
allocations may change or grow or even differ based on architectural
features.
The opaque state passed to vDSO getrandom() must be allocated using the
mmap_flags and mmap_prot parameters provided by the vgetrandom_opaque_params
struct, which also contains the size of each state. That struct can be
obtained with a call to vgetrandom(NULL, 0, 0, ¶ms, ~0UL). Then,
libc can call mmap(2) and slice up the returned array into a state per
each thread, while ensuring that no single state straddles a page
boundary. Libc is expected to allocate a chunk of these on first use,
and then dole them out to threads as they're created, allocating more
when needed.
vDSO getrandom() provides the ability for userspace to generate random
bytes quickly and safely, and is intended to be integrated into libc's
thread management. As an illustrative example, the introduced code in
the vdso_test_getrandom self test later in this series might be used to
do the same outside of libc. In a libc the various pthread-isms are
expected to be elided into libc internals.

The vDSO getrandom() implementation works with a buffer allocated with a
new system call that has certain requirements:
- It shouldn't be written to core dumps.
* Easy: VM_DONTDUMP.
- It should be zeroed on fork.
* Easy: VM_WIPEONFORK.
- It shouldn't be written to swap.
* Uh-oh: mlock is rlimited.
* Uh-oh: mlock isn't inherited by forks.
- It shouldn't reserve actual memory, but it also shouldn't crash when
page faulting in memory if none is available
* Uh-oh: VM_NORESERVE means segfaults.
It turns out that the vDSO getrandom() function has three really nice
characteristics that we can exploit to solve this problem:
1) Due to being wiped during fork(), the vDSO code is already robust to
having the contents of the pages it reads zeroed out midway through
the function's execution.
2) In the absolute worst case of whatever contingency we're coding for,
we have the option to fallback to the getrandom() syscall, and
everything is fine.
3) The buffers the function uses are only ever useful for a maximum of
60 seconds -- a sort of cache, rather than a long term allocation.
These characteristics mean that we can introduce VM_DROPPABLE, which
has the following semantics:
a) It never is written out to swap.
b) Under memory pressure, mm can just drop the pages (so that they're
zero when read back again).
c) It is inherited by fork.
d) It doesn't count against the mlock budget, since nothing is locked.
e) If there's not enough memory to service a page fault, it's not fatal,
and no signal is sent.
This way, allocations used by vDSO getrandom() can use:
VM_DROPPABLE | VM_DONTDUMP | VM_WIPEONFORK | VM_NORESERVE
And there will be no problem with OOMing, crashing on overcommitment,
using memory when not in use, not wiping on fork(), coredumps, or
writing out to swap.
In order to let vDSO getrandom() use this, expose these via mmap(2) as
MAP_DROPPABLE.
Note that this involves removing the MADV_FREE special case from
sort_folio(), which according to Yu Zhao is unnecessary and will simply
result in an extra call to shrink_folio_list() in the worst case. The
chunk removed reenables the swapbacked flag, which we don't want for
VM_DROPPABLE, and we can't conditionalize it here because there isn't a
vma reference available.
Finally, the provided self test ensures that this is working as desired.

Pull iommufd updates from Jason Gunthorpe:
- The iova_bitmap logic for efficiently reporting dirty pages back to
userspace has a few more tricky corner case bugs that have been
resolved and backed with new tests.
The revised version has simpler logic.
- Shared branch with iommu for handle support when doing domain attach.
Handles allow the domain owner to include additional private data on
a per-device basis.
- IO Page Fault Reporting to userspace via iommufd. Page faults can be
generated on fault capable HWPTs when a translation is not present.
Routing them to userspace would allow a VMM to be able to virtualize
them into an emulated vIOMMU. This is the next step to fully enabling
vSVA support.

Pull btrfs updates from David Sterba:
"The highlights are new logic behind background block group reclaim,
automatic removal of qgroup after removing a subvolume and new
'rescue=' mount options.
The rest is optimizations, cleanups and refactoring.
User visible features:
- dynamic block group reclaim:
- tunable framework to avoid situations where eager data
allocations prevent creating new metadata chunks due to lack of
unallocated space
- reuse sysfs knob bg_reclaim_threshold (otherwise used only in
zoned mode) for a fixed value threshold
- new on/off sysfs knob "dynamic_reclaim" calculating the value
based on heuristics, aiming to keep spare working space for
relocating chunks but not to needlessly relocate partially
utilized block groups or reclaim newly allocated ones
- stats are exported in sysfs per block group type, files
"reclaim_*"
- this may increase IO load at unexpected times but the corner
case of no allocatable block groups is known to be worse
- automatically remove qgroup of deleted subvolumes:
- adjust qgroup removal conditions, make sure all related
subvolume data are already removed, or return EBUSY, also take
into account setting of sysfs drop_subtree_threshold
- also works in squota mode
- mount option updates: new modes of 'rescue=' that allow to mount
images (read-only) that could have been partially converted by user
space tools
- ignoremetacsums - invalid metadata checksums are ignored
- ignoresuperflags - super block flags that track conversion in
progress (like UUID or checksums)
Core:
- size of struct btrfs_inode is now below 1024 (on a release config),
improved memory packing and other secondary effects
- switch tracking of open inodes from rb-tree to xarray, minor
performance improvement

When requesting an attestation report a guest is able to specify whether
it wants SNP firmware to sign the report using either a Versioned Chip
Endorsement Key (VCEK), which is derived from chip-unique secrets, or a
Versioned Loaded Endorsement Key (VLEK) which is obtained from an AMD
Key Derivation Service (KDS) and derived from seeds allocated to
enrolled cloud service providers (CSPs).
For VLEK keys, an SNP_VLEK_LOAD SNP firmware command is used to load
them into the system after obtaining them from the KDS. Add a
corresponding userspace interface so to allow the loading of VLEK keys
into the system.
See SEV-SNP Firmware ABI 1.54, SNP_VLEK_LOAD for more details.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Not much excitement - a handful of large patchsets (devmem among them)
did not make it in time.
Core & protocols:
- Use local_lock in addition to local_bh_disable() to protect per-CPU
resources in networking, a step closer for local_bh_disable() not
to act as a big lock on PREEMPT_RT
- Use flex array for netdevice priv area, ensure its cache alignment
- Add a sysctl knob to allow user to specify a default rto_min at
socket init time. Bit of a big hammer but multiple companies were
independently carrying such patch downstream so clearly it's useful
- Support scheduling transmission of packets based on CLOCK_TAI
- Un-pin TCP TIMEWAIT timer to avoid it firing on CPUs later cordoned
off using cpusets
- Support multiple L2TPv3 UDP tunnels using the same 5-tuple address
- Allow configuration of multipath hash seed, to both allow
synchronizing hashing of two routers, and preventing partial
accidental sync
- Improve TCP compliance with RFC 9293 for simultaneous connect()
- Support sending NAT keepalives in IPsec ESP in UDP states.
Userspace IKE daemon had to do this before, but the kernel can
better keep track of it
- Support sending supervision HSR frames with MAC addresses stored in
ProxyNodeTable when RedBox (i.e. HSR-SAN) is enabled
- Introduce IPPROTO_SMC for selecting SMC when socket is created
- Allow UDP GSO transmit from devices with no checksum offload
- openvswitch: add packet sampling via psample, separating the
sampled traffic from "upcall" packets sent to user space for
forwarding
- nf_tables: shrink memory consumption for transaction objects
Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:
- Power Sequencing subsystem (used by Qualcomm Bluetooth driver for
QCA6390) [ Already merged separately - Linus ]
- Add IRQ information in sysfs for auxiliary bus
- Introduce guard definition for local_lock
- Add aligned flavor of __cacheline_group_{begin, end}() markings for
grouping fields in structures
BPF:
- Notify user space (via epoll) when a struct_ops object is getting
detached/unregistered
- Add new kfuncs for a generic, open-coded bits iterator
- Enable BPF programs to declare arrays of kptr, bpf_rb_root, and
bpf_list_head
- Support resilient split BTF which cuts down on duplication and
makes BTF as compact as possible WRT BTF from modules
- Add support for dumping kfunc prototypes from BTF which enables
both detecting as well as dumping compilable prototypes for kfuncs
- riscv64 BPF JIT improvements in particular to add 12-argument
support for BPF trampolines and to utilize bpf_prog_pack for the
latter
- Add the capability to offload the netfilter flowtable in XDP layer
through kfuncs
Driver API:
- Allow users to configure IRQ tresholds between which automatic IRQ
moderation can choose
- Expand Power Sourcing (PoE) status with power, class and failure
reason. Support setting power limits
- Track additional RSS contexts in the core, make sure configuration
changes don't break them
- Support IPsec crypto offload for IPv6 ESP and IPv4 UDP-encapsulated
ESP data paths
- Support updating firmware on SFP modules
Tests and tooling:
- mptcp: use net/lib.sh to manage netns

The GHCB 2.0 specification defines 2 GHCB request types to allow SNP guests
to send encrypted messages/requests to firmware: SNP Guest Requests and SNP
Extended Guest Requests. These encrypted messages are used for things like
servicing attestation requests issued by the guest. Implementing support for
these is required to be fully GHCB-compliant.
For the most part, KVM only needs to handle forwarding these requests to
firmware (to be issued via the SNP_GUEST_REQUEST firmware command defined
in the SEV-SNP Firmware ABI), and then forwarding the encrypted response to
the guest.
However, in the case of SNP Extended Guest Requests, the host is also
able to provide the certificate data corresponding to the endorsement key
used by firmware to sign attestation report requests. This certificate data
is provided by userspace because:
1) It allows for different keys/key types to be used for each particular
guest with requiring any sort of KVM API to configure the certificate
table in advance on a per-guest basis.
2) It provides additional flexibility with how attestation requests might
be handled during live migration where the certificate data for
source/dest might be different.
3) It allows all synchronization between certificates and firmware/signing
key updates to be handled purely by userspace rather than requiring
some in-kernel mechanism to facilitate it. [1]
To support fetching certificate data from userspace, a new KVM exit type will
be needed to handle fetching the certificate from userspace. An attempt to
define a new KVM_EXIT_COCO/KVM_EXIT_COCO_REQ_CERTS exit type to handle this
was introduced in v1 of this patchset, but is still being discussed by
community, so for now this patchset only implements a stub version of SNP
Extended Guest Requests that does not provide certificate data, but is still
enough to provide compliance with the GHCB 2.0 spec.
|
|
Version 2 of GHCB specification added support for the SNP Guest Request
Message NAE event. The event allows for an SEV-SNP guest to make
requests to the SEV-SNP firmware through the hypervisor using the
SNP_GUEST_REQUEST API defined in the SEV-SNP firmware specification.
This is used by guests primarily to request attestation reports from
firmware. There are other request types are available as well, but the
specifics of what guest requests are being made generally does not
affect how they are handled by the hypervisor, which only serves as a
proxy for the guest requests and firmware responses.
Implement handling for these events.
When an SNP Guest Request is issued, the guest will provide its own
request/response pages, which could in theory be passed along directly
to firmware. However, these pages would need special care:
- Both pages are from shared guest memory, so they need to be
protected from migration/etc. occurring while firmware reads/writes
to them. At a minimum, this requires elevating the ref counts and
potentially needing an explicit pinning of the memory. This places
additional restrictions on what type of memory backends userspace
can use for shared guest memory since there would be some reliance
on using refcounted pages.
- The response page needs to be switched to Firmware-owned state
before the firmware can write to it, which can lead to potential
host RMP #PFs if the guest is misbehaved and hands the host a
guest page that KVM is writing to for other reasons (e.g. virtio
buffers).
Both of these issues can be avoided completely by using
separately-allocated bounce pages for both the request/response pages
and passing those to firmware instead. So that's the approach taken
here.

significant overlap and is better explained together.
* Explain the commonalities in structure-level documentation.
* Clarify some wording and break up longer sentences.
* Put emphasis on the word "handled" to make it clearer that "handled"
is a term with special meaning in the context of Landlock.
I'd like to transfer this wording into the man pages as well.

KVM x86 misc changes for 6.11
- Add a global struct to consolidate tracking of host values, e.g. EFER, and
move "shadow_phys_bits" into the structure as "maxphyaddr".
- Add KVM_CAP_X86_APIC_BUS_CYCLES_NS to allow configuring the effective APIC
bus frequency, because TDX.
- Print the name of the APICv/AVIC inhibits in the relevant tracepoint.
- Clean up KVM's handling of vendor specific emulation to consistently act on
"compatible with Intel/AMD", versus checking for a specific vendor.
- Misc cleanups
|
|
KVM generic changes for 6.11
- Enable halt poll shrinking by default, as Intel found it to be a clear win.
- Setup empty IRQ routing when creating a VM to avoid having to synchronize
SRCU when creating a split IRQCHIP on x86.
- Rework the sched_in/out() paths to replace kvm_arch_sched_in() with a flag
that arch code can use for hooking both sched_in() and sched_out().
- Take the vCPU @id as an "unsigned long" instead of "u32" to avoid
truncating a bogus value from userspace, e.g. to help userspace detect bugs.
- Mark a vCPU as preempted if and only if it's scheduled out while in the
KVM_RUN loop, e.g. to avoid marking it preempted and thus writing guest
memory when retrieving guest state during live migration blackout.
- A few minor cleanups

Pull pidfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains work to make it possible to derive namespace file
descriptors from pidfd file descriptors.
Right now it is already possible to use a pidfd with setns() to
atomically change multiple namespaces at the same time. In other
words, it is possible to switch to the namespace context of a process
using a pidfd. There is no need to first open namespace file
descriptors via procfs.
The work included here is an extension of these abilities by allowing
to open namespace file descriptors using a pidfd. This means it is now
possible to interact with namespaces without ever touching procfs.
To this end a new set of ioctls() on pidfds is introduced covering all
supported namespace types"

Pull namespace-fs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This adds ioctls allowing to translate PIDs between PID namespaces.
The motivating use-case comes from LXCFS which is a tiny fuse
filesystem used to virtualize various aspects of procfs. LXCFS is run
on the host. The files and directories it creates can be bind-mounted
by e.g. a container at startup and mounted over the various procfs
files the container wishes to have virtualized.
When e.g. a read request for uptime is received, LXCFS will receive
the pid of the reader. In order to virtualize the corresponding read,
LXCFS needs to know the pid of the init process of the reader's pid
namespace.
In order to do this, LXCFS first needs to fork() two helper processes.
The first helper process setns() to the readers pid namespace. The
second helper process is needed to create a process that is a proper
member of the pid namespace.
The second helper process then creates a ucred message with ucred.pid
set to 1 and sends it back to LXCFS. The kernel will translate the
ucred.pid field to the corresponding pid number in LXCFS's pid
namespace. This way LXCFS can learn the init pid number of the
reader's pid namespace and can go on to virtualize.
Since these two forks() are costly LXCFS maintains an init pid cache
that caches a given pid for a fixed amount of time. The cache is
pruned during new read requests. However, even with the cache the hit
of the two forks() is singificant when a very large number of
containers are running.
So this adds a simple set of ioctls that let's a caller translate PIDs
from and into a given PID namespace. This significantly improves
performance with a very simple change.
To protect against races pidfds can be used to check whether the
process is still valid"

Pull vfs mount query updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains work to extend the abilities of listmount() and
statmount() and various fixes and cleanups.
Features:
- Allow iterating through mounts via listmount() from newest to
oldest. This makes it possible for mount(8) to keep iterating the
mount table in reverse order so it gets newest mounts first.
- Relax permissions on listmount() and statmount().
It's not necessary to have capabilities in the initial namespace:
it is sufficient to have capabilities in the owning namespace of
the mount namespace we're located in to list unreachable mounts in
that namespace.
- Extend both listmount() and statmount() to list and stat mounts in
foreign mount namespaces.
Currently the only way to iterate over mount entries in mount
namespaces that aren't in the caller's mount namespace is by
crawling through /proc in order to find /proc/<pid>/mountinfo for
the relevant mount namespace.
This is both very clumsy and hugely inefficient. So extend struct
mnt_id_req with a new member that allows to specify the mount
namespace id of the mount namespace we want to look at.
Luckily internally we already have most of the infrastructure for
this so we just need to expose it to userspace. Give userspace a
way to retrieve the id of a mount namespace via statmount() and
through a new nsfs ioctl() on mount namespace file descriptor.
This comes with appropriate selftests.
- Expose mount options through statmount().
Currently if userspace wants to get mount options for a mount and
with statmount(), they still have to open /proc/<pid>/mountinfo to
parse mount options. Simply the information through statmount()
directly.
Afterwards it's possible to only rely on statmount() and
listmount() to retrieve all and more information than
/proc/<pid>/mountinfo provides.
This comes with appropriate selftests.
Fixes:
- Avoid copying to userspace under the namespace semaphore in
listmount.
Cleanups:
- Simplify the error handling in listmount by relying on our newly
added cleanup infrastructure.
- Refuse invalid mount ids early for both listmount and statmount"

This patch changes how TCA_FLOWER_KEY_ENC_FLAGS is used, so that
it is used with TCA_FLOWER_KEY_FLAGS_* flags, in the same way as
TCA_FLOWER_KEY_FLAGS is currently used.
Where TCA_FLOWER_KEY_FLAGS uses {key,mask}->control.flags, then
TCA_FLOWER_KEY_ENC_FLAGS now uses {key,mask}->enc_control.flags,
therefore {key,mask}->enc_flags is now unused.
As the generic fl_set_key_flags/fl_dump_key_flags() is used with
encap set to true, then fl_{set,dump}_key_enc_flags() is removed.
This breaks unreleased userspace API (net-next since 2024-06-04).

Make the kernel-side enum a more explicit superset of

both enums, but at least the bit position only has to be
defined once.

Relying on position in the enum makes it subtly harder when doing merge
resolutions or backporting as it is easy to grab a patch and not notice it
is a uAPI change with a differently ordered enum. This may become a bigger
problem in next cycles when iommu_hwpt_invalidate_data_type and other
per-driver enums have patches flowing through different trees.
So lets start including constants for all the uAPI enums to make this
safer.
No functional change.

The need to get ELF build ID reliably is an important aspect when dealing
with profiling and stack trace symbolization, and /proc/<pid>/maps textual
representation doesn't help with this.
To get backing file's ELF build ID, application has to first resolve VMA,
then use it's start/end address range to follow a special
/proc/<pid>/map_files/<start>-<end> symlink to open the ELF file (this is
necessary because backing file might have been removed from the disk or
was already replaced with another binary in the same file path.
Such approach, beyond just adding complexity of having to do a bunch of
extra work, has extra security implications. Because application opens
underlying ELF file and needs read access to its entire contents (as far
as kernel is concerned), kernel puts additional capable() checks on
following /proc/<pid>/map_files/<start>-<end> symlink. And that makes
sense in general.
But in the case of build ID, profiler/symbolizer doesn't need the contents
of ELF file, per se. It's only build ID that is of interest, and ELF
build ID itself doesn't provide any sensitive information.
So this patch adds a way to request backing file's ELF build ID along the
rest of VMA information in the same API. User has control over whether
this piece of information is requested or not by either setting
build_id_size field to zero or non-zero maximum buffer size they provided
through build_id_addr field (which encodes user pointer as __u64 field).
This is a completely optional piece of information, and so has no
performance implications for user cases that don't care about build ID,
while improving performance and simplifying the setup for those
application that do need it.
Kernel already implements build ID fetching, which is used from BPF
subsystem. We are reusing this code here, but plan a follow up changes to
make it work better under more relaxed assumption (compared to what
existing code assumes) of being called from user process context, in which
page faults are allowed. BPF-specific implementation currently bails out
if necessary part of ELF file is not paged in, all due to extra
BPF-specific restrictions (like the need to fetch build ID in restrictive
contexts such as NMI handler).

/proc/<pid>/maps file is extremely useful in practice for various tasks
involving figuring out process memory layout, what files are backing any
given memory range, etc. One important class of applications that
absolutely rely on this are profilers/stack symbolizers (perf tool being
one of them). Patterns of use differ, but they generally would fall into
two categories.
In on-demand pattern, a profiler/symbolizer would normally capture stack
trace containing absolute memory addresses of some functions, and would
then use /proc/<pid>/maps file to find corresponding backing ELF files
(normally, only executable VMAs are of interest), file offsets within
them, and then continue from there to get yet more information (ELF
symbols, DWARF information) to get human-readable symbolic information.
This pattern is used by Meta's fleet-wide profiler, as one example.
In preprocessing pattern, application doesn't know the set of addresses of
interest, so it has to fetch all relevant VMAs (again, probably only
executable ones), store or cache them, then proceed with profiling and
stack trace capture. Once done, it would do symbolization based on stored
VMA information. This can happen at much later point in time. This
patterns is used by perf tool, as an example.
In either case, there are both performance and correctness requirement
involved. This address to VMA information translation has to be done as
efficiently as possible, but also not miss any VMA (especially in the case
of loading/unloading shared libraries). In practice, correctness can't be
guaranteed (due to process dying before VMA data can be captured, or
shared library being unloaded, etc), but any effort to maximize the chance
of finding the VMA is appreciated.
Unfortunately, for all the /proc/<pid>/maps file universality and
usefulness, it doesn't fit the above use cases 100%.
First, it's main purpose is to emit all VMAs sequentially, but in practice
captured addresses would fall only into a smaller subset of all process'
VMAs, mainly containing executable text. Yet, library would need to parse
most or all of the contents to find needed VMAs, as there is no way to
skip VMAs that are of no use. Efficient library can do the linear pass
and it is still relatively efficient, but it's definitely an overhead that
can be avoided, if there was a way to do more targeted querying of the
relevant VMA information.
Second, it's a text based interface, which makes its programmatic use from
applications and libraries more cumbersome and inefficient due to the need
to handle text parsing to get necessary pieces of information. The
overhead is actually payed both by kernel, formatting originally binary
VMA data into text, and then by user space application, parsing it back
into binary data for further use.
For the on-demand pattern of usage, described above, another problem when
writing generic stack trace symbolization library is an unfortunate
performance-vs-correctness tradeoff that needs to be made. Library has to
make a decision to either cache parsed contents of /proc/<pid>/maps (after
initial processing) to service future requests (if application requests to
symbolize another set of addresses (for the same process), captured at
some later time, which is typical for periodic/continuous profiling cases)
to avoid higher costs of re-parsing this file. Or it has to choose to
cache the contents in memory to speed up future requests. In the former
case, more memory is used for the cache and there is a risk of getting
stale data if application loads or unloads shared libraries, or otherwise
changed its set of VMAs somehow, e.g., through additional mmap() calls.
In the latter case, it's the performance hit that comes from re-opening
the file and re-parsing its contents all over again.
This patch aims to solve this problem by providing a new API built on top
of /proc/<pid>/maps. It's meant to address both non-selectiveness and
text nature of /proc/<pid>/maps, by giving user more control of what sort
of VMA(s) needs to be queried, and being binary-based interface eliminates
the overhead of text formatting (on kernel side) and parsing (on user
space side).
It's also designed to be extensible and forward/backward compatible by
including required struct size field, which user has to provide. We use
established copy_struct_from_user() approach to handle extensibility.
User has a choice to pick either getting VMA that covers provided address
or -ENOENT if none is found (exact, least surprising, case). Or, with an
extra query flag (PROCMAP_QUERY_COVERING_OR_NEXT_VMA), they can get either
VMA that covers the address (if there is one), or the closest next VMA
(i.e., VMA with the smallest vm_start > addr). The latter allows more
efficient use, but, given it could be a surprising behavior, requires an
explicit opt-in.
There is another query flag that is useful for some use cases.
PROCMAP_QUERY_FILE_BACKED_VMA instructs this API to only return
file-backed VMAs. Combining this with PROCMAP_QUERY_COVERING_OR_NEXT_VMA
makes it possible to efficiently iterate only file-backed VMAs of the
process, which is what profilers/symbolizers are normally interested in.
All the above querying flags can be combined with (also optional) set of
desired VMA permissions flags. This allows to, for example, iterate only
an executable subset of VMAs, which is what preprocessing pattern, used by
perf tool, would benefit from, as the assumption is that captured stack
traces would have addresses of executable code. This saves time by
skipping non-executable VMAs altogether efficienty.
All these querying flags (modifiers) are orthogonal and can be combined in
a semantically meaningful and natural way.
Basing this ioctl()-based API on top of /proc/<pid>/maps's FD makes sense
given it's querying the same set of VMA data. It's also benefitial
because permission checks for /proc/<pid>/maps is performed at open time
once, and the actual data read of text contents of /proc/<pid>/maps is
done without further permission checks. We piggyback on this pattern with
ioctl()-based API as well, as that's a desired property. Both for
performance reasons, but also for security and flexibility reasons.
Allowing application to open an FD for /proc/self/maps without any extra
capabilities, and then passing it to some sort of profiling agent through
Unix-domain socket, would allow such profiling agent to not require some
of the capabilities that are otherwise expected when opening
/proc/<pid>/maps file for *another* process. This is a desirable property
for some more restricted setups.
This new ioctl-based implementation doesn't interfere with seq_file-based
implementation of /proc/<pid>/maps textual interface, and so could be used
together or independently without paying any price for that.
Note also, that fetching VMA name (e.g., backing file path, or special
hard-coded or user-provided names) is optional just like build ID. If
user sets vma_name_size to zero, kernel code won't attempt to retrieve it,
saving resources.
Earlier versions of this patch set were adding per-VMA locking, which is
why we have a code structure that is ready for abstracting mmap_lock vs
vm_lock differences (query_vma_setup(), query_vma_teardown(), and
query_vma_find_by_addr()), but given anon_vma_name() is not yet compatible
with per-VMA locking, initial implementation sticks to using only
mmap_lock for now. It will be easy to add back per-VMA locking once all
the pieces are ready later on. Which is why we keep existing code
structure with setup/teardown/query helper functions.
