PPC64 IOMMU API defines iommu_table_group_ops which handles DMA
windows for PEs, their ownership transfer, create/set/unset the TCE
tables for the Dynamic DMA wundows(DDW). VFIOS uses these APIs for
support on POWER.
The commit 9d67c9433509 ("powerpc/iommu: Add "borrowing"
iommu_table_group_ops") implemented partial support for this API with
"borrow" mechanism wherein the DMA windows if created already by the
host driver, they would be available for VFIO to use. Also, it didn't
have the support to control/modify the window size or the IO page
size.
The current patch implements all the necessary iommu_table_group_ops
APIs there by avoiding the "borrrowing". So, just the way it is on the
PowerNV platform, with this patch the iommu table group ownership is
transferred to the VFIO PPC subdriver, the iommu table, DMA windows
creation/deletion all driven through the APIs.
The pSeries uses the query-pe-dma-window, create-pe-dma-window and
reset-pe-dma-window RTAS calls for DMA window creation, deletion and
reset to defaul. The RTAs calls do show some minor differences to the
way things are to be handled on the pSeries which are listed below.
* On pSeries, the default DMA window size is "fixed" cannot be custom
sized as requested by the user. For non-SRIOV VFs, It is fixed at 2GB
and for SRIOV VFs, its variable sized based on the capacity assigned
to it during the VF assignment to the LPAR. So, for the default DMA
window alone the size if requested less than tce32_size, the smaller
size is enforced using the iommu table->it_size.
* The DMA start address for 32-bit window is 0, and for the 64-bit
window in case of PowerNV is hardcoded to TVE select (bit 59) at 512PiB
offset. This address is returned at the time of create_table() API call
(even before the window is created), the subsequent set_window() call
actually opens the DMA window. On pSeries, the DMA start address for
32-bit window is known from the 'ibm,dma-window' DT property. However,
the 64-bit window start address is not known until the create-pe-dma
RTAS call is made. So, the create_table() which returns the DMA window
start address actually opens the DMA window and returns the DMA start
address as returned by the Hypervisor for the create-pe-dma RTAS call.
* The reset-pe-dma RTAS call resets the DMA windows and restores the
default DMA window, however it does not clear the TCE table entries
if there are any. In case of ownership transfer from platform domain
which used direct mapping, the patch chooses remove-pe-dma instead of
reset-pe for the 64-bit window intentionally so that the
clear_dma_window() is called.
Other than the DMA window management changes mentioned above, the
patch also brings back the userspace view for the single level TCE
as it existed before commit 090bad39b237a ("powerpc/powernv: Add
indirect levels to it_userspace") along with the relavent
refactoring.

This patch basically brings consistency with PowerNV approach
to use the first freely available iommu table when the default
window is removed.
The pSeries iommu code convention has been that the table[0] is
for the default 32 bit DMA window and the table[1] is for the
64 bit DDW.
With VFs having only 1 DMA window, the default has to be removed
for creating the larger DMA window. The existing code uses the
table[1] for that, while marking the table[0] as NULL. This is
fine as long as the host driver itself uses the device.
For the VFIO user, on pSeries there is no way to skip table[0]
as the VFIO subdriver uses the first freely available table.
The window 0, when created as 64-bit DDW in that context would
still be on table[0], as the maximum number of windows is 1.
This won't have any impact for the host driver as the table is
fetched from the device's iommu_table_base.

While updating the cpus node, commit 40c753993e3a ("powerpc/kexec_file:
Use current CPU info while setting up FDT") first deletes all subnodes
under the /cpus node. However, while adding sub-nodes back, it missed
adding cpus subnodes whose device_type != "cpu", such as l2-cache*,
l3-cache*, ibm,powerpc-cpu-features.
Fix this by only deleting cpus sub-nodes of device_type == "cpus" and
then adding all available nodes with device_type == "cpu".

While setting up the FDT for kexec, CPU nodes that are added after the
system boots and reserved memory ranges are incorporated into the
initial_boot_params (base FDT).
However, they are not taken into account when determining the additional
size needed for the kexec FDT. As a result, kexec fails to load,
generating the following error:
[1116.774451] Error updating memory reserve map: FDT_ERR_NOSPACE
kexec_file_load failed: No such process
Therefore, consider the extra size for CPU nodes added post-system boot
and reserved memory ranges while preparing the kexec FDT.
While adding a new parameter to the setup_new_fdt_ppc64 function, it was
noticed that there were a couple of unused parameters, so they were
removed.

Currently in some cases, when the sampled instruction address register
latches to a specific address during sampling, the privilege bits
captured in the sampled event register are incorrect.
For example, a snippet from the perf report on a power10 system is:
Overhead Address Command Shared Object Symbol
........ .................. ............ ................. .......................
2.41% 0x7fff9f94a02c null_syscall [unknown] [k] 0x00007fff9f94a02c
2.20% 0x7fff9f94a02c null_syscall libc.so.6 [.] syscall
perf_get_misc_flags() function looks at the privilege bits to return
the corresponding flags to be used for the address symbol and these
privilege bit details are read from the sampled event register. In the
above snippet, address "0x00007fff9f94a02c" is shown as "k" (kernel) due
to the incorrect privilege bits captured in the sampled event register.
To address this case check whether the sampled address is in the kernel
area. Since this is specific to the latest platform, a new pmu flag
is added called "PPMU_P10" and is used to contain the proposed fix.
PPMU_P10_DD1 marked events are also included under PPMU_P10, hence
remove the code specific to PPMU_P10_DD1 marked events.

Commit 6e5f1537833a ("powerpc: Add a 6xx defconfig") said it was copied
from fedore's ppc32 defconfig, but at least since 2015-06-10, Fedora has
dropped this option.[1]
For cgroup v1, if turned on, and there's any cgroup in the "cpu" hierarchy it
needs an RT budget assigned, otherwise the processes in it will not be able to
get RT at all. The problem with RT group scheduling is that it requires the
budget assigned but there's no way we could assign a default budget, since the
values to assign are both upper and lower time limits, are absolute, and need to
be sum up to < 1 for each individal cgroup. That means we cannot really come up
with values that would work by default in the general case.[1]
For cgroup v2, it's almost unusable as well. If it turned on, the cpu controller
can only be enabled when all RT processes are in the root cgroup. But it will
lose the benefits of cgroup v2 if all RT process were placed in the same cgroup.
systemd also doesn't support it.[2]

VAS allocate, modify and deallocate HCALLs returns
H_LONG_BUSY_ORDER_1_MSEC or H_LONG_BUSY_ORDER_10_MSEC for busy
delay and expects OS to reissue HCALL after that delay. But using
msleep() will often sleep at least 20 msecs even though the
hypervisor suggests OS reissue these HCALLs after 1 or 10msecs.
The open and close VAS window functions hold mutex and then issue
these HCALLs. So these operations can take longer than the
necessary when multiple threads issue open or close window APIs
simultaneously, especially might affect the performance in the
case of repeat open/close APIs for each compression request.
Multiple tasks can open / close VAS windows at the same time
which depends on the available VAS credits. For example, 240
cores system provides 4800 VAS credits. It means 4800 tasks can
execute open VAS windows HCALLs with the mutex. Since each
msleep() will often sleep more than 20 msecs, some tasks are
waiting more than 120 secs to acquire mutex. It can cause hung
traces for these tasks in dmesg due to mutex contention around
open/close HCALLs.
Instead of msleep(), use usleep_range() to ensure sleep with
the expected value before issuing HCALL again. So since each
task sleep 10 msecs maximum, this patch allow more tasks can
issue open/close VAS calls without any hung traces in the
dmesg.

In the current design, a numa-node is made online only if that node is
attached to cpu/memory. With this design, if any PCI/IO device is found
to be attached to a numa-node which is not online then the numa-node
id of the corresponding PCI/IO device is set to NUMA_NO_NODE(-1). This
design may negatively impact the performance of PCIe device if the
numa-node assigned to PCIe device is -1 because in such case we may not
be able to accurately calculate the distance between two nodes.
The multi-controller NVMe PCIe disk has an issue with calculating the
node distance if the PCIe NVMe controller is attached to a PCI host
bridge which has numa-node id value set to NUMA_NO_NODE. This patch
helps fix this ensuring that a cpu/memory less numa node is made online
if it's attached to PCI host bridge.

Dynamic DMA Window (DDW) supports TCEs that are backed by 2MB page
size. In most configurations, DDW is big enough to pre-map all of LPAR
memory for IO. Pre-mapping of memory for DMA results in improvements in
IO performance.
Persistent memory, vPMEM, can be assigned to an LPAR as well. vPMEM is
not contiguous with LPAR memory and usually is assigned at high memory
addresses. This makes is not possible to pre-map both vPMEM and LPAR
memory in the same DDW.
For a dedicated adapter this limitation is not an issue. Dedicated
adapters can have both Default DMA window, which is backed by 4K page
size and a DDW backed by 2MB page size TCEs. In this scenario, LPAR
memory is pre-mapped in the DDW. Any DMA going to the vPMEM is routed
via dynamically allocated TCEs in the default window.
The issue arises with SR-IOV adapters. There is only one DMA window -
either Default or DDW. If an LPAR has vPMEM assigned, memory is not
pre-mapped in the DDW since TCEs needs to be allocated for vPMEM as well.
In this case, DDW is created and TCEs are dynamically allocated for both
vPMEM and LPAR memory.
Today, DDW is only used in single mode - direct mapped TCEs or
dynamically mapped TCEs. This enhancement breaks a single DDW in 2
regions -
1. First region to pre-map LPAR memory
2. Second region to dynamically allocate TCEs for IO to vPMEM
The DDW is split only if it is big enough to pre-map complete LPAR
memory and still have some space left to dynamically map vPMEM. Maximum
size possible DDW is created as permitted by the Hypervisor.

This is not an issue when building a 64-bit kernel. To unbreak the
build, limit ARCH_HAS_KERNEL_FPU_SUPPORT to 64-bit kernels. This is okay
because the only real user of this option, amdgpu, was previously
limited to PPC64 anyway; see commit a28e4b672f04 ("drm/amd/display: use

The 'ld' instruction requires a 4-byte aligned displacement because it
is a DS-form instruction. But the "m" asm constraint doesn't enforce
that.
Add a special case of __get_user_asm2_goto() so that the "YZ" constraint
can be used for "ld".
The "Z" constraint is documented in the GCC manual PowerPC machine
constraints, and specifies a "memory operand accessed with indexed or
indirect addressing". "Y" is not documented in the manual but specifies
a "memory operand for a DS-form instruction". Using both allows the
compiler to generate a DS-form "ld" or X-form "ldx" as appropriate.
The change has to be conditional on CONFIG_PPC_KERNEL_PREFIXED because
the "Y" constraint does not guarantee 4-byte alignment when prefixed
instructions are enabled.
No build errors have been reported due to this, but the possibility is
there depending on compiler code generation decisions.

Building ppc64le_defconfig with GCC 14 fails with assembler errors:

A snippet of the asm shows:
# ../fs/readdir.c:210: unsafe_copy_dirent_name(dirent->d_name, name, namlen, efault_end);
ld 9,0(29) # MEM[(u64 *)name_38(D) + _88 * 1], MEM[(u64 *)name_38(D) + _88 * 1]

The 'std' instruction requires a 4-byte aligned displacement because
it is a DS-form instruction, and as the assembler says, 18 is not a
multiple of 4.
A similar error is seen with GCC 13 and CONFIG_UBSAN_SIGNED_WRAP=y.
The fix is to change the constraint on the memory operand to put_user(),
from "m" which is a general memory reference to "YZ".
The "Z" constraint is documented in the GCC manual PowerPC machine
constraints, and specifies a "memory operand accessed with indexed or
indirect addressing". "Y" is not documented in the manual but specifies
a "memory operand for a DS-form instruction". Using both allows the
compiler to generate a DS-form "std" or X-form "stdx" as appropriate.
The change has to be conditional on CONFIG_PPC_KERNEL_PREFIXED because
the "Y" constraint does not guarantee 4-byte alignment when prefixed
instructions are enabled.
Unfortunately clang doesn't support the "Y" constraint so that has to be
behind an ifdef.
Although the build error is only seen with GCC 13/14, that appears
to just be luck. The constraint has been incorrect since it was first
added.

The Linux Kernel Memory Model [1][2] requires RMW operations that have a
return value to be fully ordered.
BPF atomic operations with BPF_FETCH (including BPF_XCHG and
BPF_CMPXCHG) return a value back so they need to be JITed to fully
ordered operations. POWERPC currently emits relaxed operations for
these.
We can show this by running the following litmus-test:

Patch series "Introduce mseal", v10.
This patchset proposes a new mseal() syscall for the Linux kernel.
In a nutshell, mseal() protects the VMAs of a given virtual memory range
against modifications, such as changes to their permission bits.
Modern CPUs support memory permissions, such as the read/write (RW) and
no-execute (NX) bits. Linux has supported NX since the release of kernel
version 2.6.8 in August 2004 [1]. The memory permission feature improves
the security stance on memory corruption bugs, as an attacker cannot
simply write to arbitrary memory and point the code to it. The memory
must be marked with the X bit, or else an exception will occur.
Internally, the kernel maintains the memory permissions in a data
structure called VMA (vm_area_struct). mseal() additionally protects the
VMA itself against modifications of the selected seal type.
Memory sealing is useful to mitigate memory corruption issues where a
corrupted pointer is passed to a memory management system. For example,
such an attacker primitive can break control-flow integrity guarantees
since read-only memory that is supposed to be trusted can become writable
or .text pages can get remapped. Memory sealing can automatically be
applied by the runtime loader to seal .text and .rodata pages and
applications can additionally seal security critical data at runtime. A
similar feature already exists in the XNU kernel with the
VM_FLAGS_PERMANENT [3] flag and on OpenBSD with the mimmutable syscall
[4]. Also, Chrome wants to adopt this feature for their CFI work [2] and
this patchset has been designed to be compatible with the Chrome use case.
Two system calls are involved in sealing the map: mmap() and mseal().
The new mseal() is an syscall on 64 bit CPU, and with following signature:
int mseal(void addr, size_t len, unsigned long flags)
addr/len: memory range.
flags: reserved.
mseal() blocks following operations for the given memory range.
1> Unmapping, moving to another location, and shrinking the size,
via munmap() and mremap(), can leave an empty space, therefore can
be replaced with a VMA with a new set of attributes.
2> Moving or expanding a different VMA into the current location,
via mremap().
3> Modifying a VMA via mmap(MAP_FIXED).
4> Size expansion, via mremap(), does not appear to pose any specific
risks to sealed VMAs. It is included anyway because the use case is
unclear. In any case, users can rely on merging to expand a sealed VMA.
5> mprotect() and pkey_mprotect().
6> Some destructive madvice() behaviors (e.g. MADV_DONTNEED) for anonymous
memory, when users don't have write permission to the memory. Those
behaviors can alter region contents by discarding pages, effectively a
memset(0) for anonymous memory.
The idea that inspired this patch comes from Stephen Röttger’s work in
V8 CFI [5]. Chrome browser in ChromeOS will be the first user of this
API.
Indeed, the Chrome browser has very specific requirements for sealing,
which are distinct from those of most applications. For example, in the
case of libc, sealing is only applied to read-only (RO) or read-execute
(RX) memory segments (such as .text and .RELRO) to prevent them from
becoming writable, the lifetime of those mappings are tied to the lifetime
of the process.
Chrome wants to seal two large address space reservations that are managed
by different allocators. The memory is mapped RW- and RWX respectively
but write access to it is restricted using pkeys (or in the future ARM
permission overlay extensions). The lifetime of those mappings are not
tied to the lifetime of the process, therefore, while the memory is
sealed, the allocators still need to free or discard the unused memory.
For example, with madvise(DONTNEED).
However, always allowing madvise(DONTNEED) on this range poses a security
risk. For example if a jump instruction crosses a page boundary and the
second page gets discarded, it will overwrite the target bytes with zeros
and change the control flow. Checking write-permission before the discard
operation allows us to control when the operation is valid. In this case,
the madvise will only succeed if the executing thread has PKEY write
permissions and PKRU changes are protected in software by control-flow
integrity.
Although the initial version of this patch series is targeting the Chrome
browser as its first user, it became evident during upstream discussions
that we would also want to ensure that the patch set eventually is a
complete solution for memory sealing and compatible with other use cases.
The specific scenario currently in mind is glibc's use case of loading and
sealing ELF executables. To this end, Stephen is working on a change to
glibc to add sealing support to the dynamic linker, which will seal all
non-writable segments at startup. Once this work is completed, all
applications will be able to automatically benefit from these new
protections.
In closing, I would like to formally acknowledge the valuable
contributions received during the RFC process, which were instrumental in
shaping this patch:
Jann Horn: raising awareness and providing valuable insights on the
destructive madvise operations.
Liam R. Howlett: perf optimization.
Linus Torvalds: assisting in defining system call signature and scope.
Theo de Raadt: sharing the experiences and insight gained from
implementing mimmutable() in OpenBSD.
MM perf benchmarks
==================
This patch adds a loop in the mprotect/munmap/madvise(DONTNEED) to
check the VMAs’ sealing flag, so that no partial update can be made,
when any segment within the given memory range is sealed.
To measure the performance impact of this loop, two tests are developed.
[8]
The first is measuring the time taken for a particular system call,
by using clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC). The second is using
PERF_COUNT_HW_REF_CPU_CYCLES (exclude user space). Both tests have
similar results.
The tests have roughly below sequence:
for (i = 0; i < 1000, i++)
create 1000 mappings (1 page per VMA)
start the sampling
for (j = 0; j < 1000, j++)
mprotect one mapping
stop and save the sample
delete 1000 mappings
calculates all samples.
Below tests are performed on Intel(R) Pentium(R) Gold 7505 @ 2.00GHz,
4G memory, Chromebook.

20-40 nano seconds, or around 50-100 CPU cycles, per VMA.
In addition, I applied the sealing to 5.10 kernel:

From 5.10 to 6.8
munmap: added 250-550 ns in time, or 500-1100 in cpu cycle, per vma.
mprotect: added 200-750 ns in time, or 500-1200 in cpu cycle, per vma.
madvise: added 33-50 ns in time, or 70-110 in cpu cycle, per vma.
In comparison to mseal, which adds 20-40 ns or 50-100 CPU cycles, the
increase from 5.10 to 6.8 is significantly larger, approximately ten times
greater for munmap and mprotect.
When I discuss the mm performance with Brian Makin, an engineer who worked
on performance, it was brought to my attention that such performance
benchmarks, which measuring millions of mm syscall in a tight loop, may
not accurately reflect real-world scenarios, such as that of a database
service. Also this is tested using a single HW and ChromeOS, the data
from another HW or distribution might be different. It might be best to
take this data with a grain of salt.
This patch (of 5):
Wire up mseal syscall for all architectures.

Pull tracing cleanup from Steven Rostedt:
"Remove second argument of __assign_str()
The __assign_str() macro logic of the TRACE_EVENT() macro was
optimized so that it no longer needs the second argument. The
__assign_str() is always matched with __string() field that takes a
field name and the source for that field:
__string(field, source)
The TRACE_EVENT() macro logic will save off the source value and then
use that value to copy into the ring buffer via the __assign_str().
Before commit c1fa617caeb0 ("tracing: Rework __assign_str() and
__string() to not duplicate getting the string"), the __assign_str()
needed the second argument which would perform the same logic as the
__string() source parameter did. Not only would this add overhead, but
it was error prone as if the __assign_str() source produced something
different, it may not have allocated enough for the string in the ring
buffer (as the __string() source was used to determine how much to
allocate)
Now that the __assign_str() just uses the same string that was used in
__string() it no longer needs the source parameter. It can now be
removed"

With the rework of how the __string() handles dynamic strings where it
saves off the source string in field in the helper structure[1], the
assignment of that value to the trace event field is stored in the helper
value and does not need to be passed in again.
This means that with:
__string(field, mystring)
Which use to be assigned with __assign_str(field, mystring), no longer
needs the second parameter and it is unused. With this, __assign_str()
will now only get a single parameter.
There's over 700 users of __assign_str() and because coccinelle does not
handle the TRACE_EVENT() macro I ended up using the following sed script:
git grep -l __assign_str | while read a ; do
sed -e 's/\(__assign_str([^,]*[^ ,]\) *,[^;]*/\1)/' $a > /tmp/test-file;
mv /tmp/test-file $a;
done
I then searched for __assign_str() that did not end with ';' as those
were multi line assignments that the sed script above would fail to catch.
Note, the same updates will need to be done for:
__assign_str_len()
__assign_rel_str()
__assign_rel_str_len()
I tested this with both an allmodconfig and an allyesconfig (build only for both).

PowerPC provides an equivalent to the common kernel-mode FPU API, but in a
different header and using different function names. The PowerPC API also
requires a non-preemptible context. Add a wrapper header, and export the
CFLAGS adjustments.

If an error happens in ftrace, ftrace_kill() will prevent disarming
kprobes. Eventually, the ftrace_ops associated with the kprobes will be
freed, yet the kprobes will still be active, and when triggered, they
will use the freed memory, likely resulting in a page fault and panic.
This behavior can be reproduced quite easily, by creating a kprobe and
then triggering a ftrace_kill(). For simplicity, we can simulate an
ftrace error with a kernel module like [1]:
[1]: https://github.com/brenns10/kernel_stuff/tree/master/ftrace_killer
sudo perf probe --add commit_creds
sudo perf trace -e probe:commit_creds
# In another terminal
make
sudo insmod ftrace_killer.ko # calls ftrace_kill(), simulating bug
# Back to perf terminal
# ctrl-c
sudo perf probe --del commit_creds
After a short period, a page fault and panic would occur as the kprobe
continues to execute and uses the freed ftrace_ops. While ftrace_kill()
is supposed to be used only in extreme circumstances, it is invoked in
FTRACE_WARN_ON() and so there are many places where an unexpected bug
could be triggered, yet the system may continue operating, possibly
without the administrator noticing. If ftrace_kill() does not panic the
system, then we should do everything we can to continue operating,
rather than leave a ticking time bomb.

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"ARM:
- Move a lot of state that was previously stored on a per vcpu basis
into a per-CPU area, because it is only pertinent to the host while
the vcpu is loaded. This results in better state tracking, and a
smaller vcpu structure.
- Add full handling of the ERET/ERETAA/ERETAB instructions in nested
virtualisation. The last two instructions also require emulating
part of the pointer authentication extension. As a result, the trap
handling of pointer authentication has been greatly simplified.
- Turn the global (and not very scalable) LPI translation cache into
a per-ITS, scalable cache, making non directly injected LPIs much
cheaper to make visible to the vcpu.
- A batch of pKVM patches, mostly fixes and cleanups, as the
upstreaming process seems to be resuming. Fingers crossed!
- Allocate PPIs and SGIs outside of the vcpu structure, allowing for
smaller EL2 mapping and some flexibility in implementing more or
less than 32 private IRQs.
- Purge stale mpidr_data if a vcpu is created after the MPIDR map has
been created.
- Preserve vcpu-specific ID registers across a vcpu reset.
- Various minor cleanups and improvements.
LoongArch:
- Add ParaVirt IPI support
- Add software breakpoint support
- Add mmio trace events support
RISC-V:
- Support guest breakpoints using ebreak
- Introduce per-VCPU mp_state_lock and reset_cntx_lock
- Virtualize SBI PMU snapshot and counter overflow interrupts
- New selftests for SBI PMU and Guest ebreak
- Some preparatory work for both TDX and SNP page fault handling.
This also cleans up the page fault path, so that the priorities of
various kinds of fauls (private page, no memory, write to read-only
slot, etc.) are easier to follow.
x86:
- Minimize amount of time that shadow PTEs remain in the special
REMOVED_SPTE state.
This is a state where the mmu_lock is held for reading but
concurrent accesses to the PTE have to spin; shortening its use
allows other vCPUs to repopulate the zapped region while the zapper
finishes tearing down the old, defunct page tables.
- Advertise the max mappable GPA in the "guest MAXPHYADDR" CPUID
field, which is defined by hardware but left for software use.
This lets KVM communicate its inability to map GPAs that set bits
51:48 on hosts without 5-level nested page tables. Guest firmware
is expected to use the information when mapping BARs; this avoids
that they end up at a legal, but unmappable, GPA.
- Fixed a bug where KVM would not reject accesses to MSR that aren't
supposed to exist given the vCPU model and/or KVM configuration.
- As usual, a bunch of code cleanups.
x86 (AMD):
- Implement a new and improved API to initialize SEV and SEV-ES VMs,
which will also be extendable to SEV-SNP.
The new API specifies the desired encryption in KVM_CREATE_VM and
then separately initializes the VM. The new API also allows
customizing the desired set of VMSA features; the features affect
the measurement of the VM's initial state, and therefore enabling
them cannot be done tout court by the hypervisor.
While at it, the new API includes two bugfixes that couldn't be
applied to the old one without a flag day in userspace or without
affecting the initial measurement. When a SEV-ES VM is created with
the new VM type, KVM_GET_REGS/KVM_SET_REGS and friends are rejected
once the VMSA has been encrypted. Also, the FPU and AVX state will
be synchronized and encrypted too.
- Support for GHCB version 2 as applicable to SEV-ES guests.
This, once more, is only accessible when using the new
KVM_SEV_INIT2 flow for initialization of SEV-ES VMs.
x86 (Intel):
- An initial bunch of prerequisite patches for Intel TDX were merged.
They generally don't do anything interesting. The only somewhat
user visible change is a new debugging mode that checks that KVM's
MMU never triggers a #VE virtualization exception in the guest.
- Clear vmcs.EXIT_QUALIFICATION when synthesizing an EPT Misconfig
VM-Exit to L1, as per the SDM.
Generic:
- Use vfree() instead of kvfree() for allocations that always use
vcalloc() or __vcalloc().
- Remove .change_pte() MMU notifier - the changes to non-KVM code are
small and Andrew Morton asked that I also take those through the
KVM tree.
The callback was only ever implemented by KVM (which was also the
original user of MMU notifiers) but it had been nonfunctional ever
since calls to set_pte_at_notify were wrapped with
invalidate_range_start and invalidate_range_end... in 2012.
Selftests:
- Enhance the demand paging test to allow for better reporting and
stressing of UFFD performance.
- Convert the steal time test to generate TAP-friendly output.
- Fix a flaky false positive in the xen_shinfo_test due to comparing
elapsed time across two different clock domains.
- Skip the MONITOR/MWAIT test if the host doesn't actually support
MWAIT.
- Avoid unnecessary use of "sudo" in the NX hugepage test wrapper
shell script, to play nice with running in a minimal userspace
environment.
- Allow skipping the RSEQ test's sanity check that the vCPU was able
to complete a reasonable number of KVM_RUNs, as the assert can fail
on a completely valid setup.
If the test is run on a large-ish system that is otherwise idle,
and the test isn't affined to a low-ish number of CPUs, the vCPU
task can be repeatedly migrated to CPUs that are in deep sleep
states, which results in the vCPU having very little net runtime
before the next migration due to high wakeup latencies.
- Define _GNU_SOURCE for all selftests to fix a warning that was
introduced by a change to kselftest_harness.h late in the 6.9
cycle, and because forcing every test to #define _GNU_SOURCE is
painful.
- Provide a global pseudo-RNG instance for all tests, so that library
code can generate random, but determinstic numbers.
- Use the global pRNG to randomly force emulation of select writes
from guest code on x86, e.g. to help validate KVM's emulation of
locked accesses.
- Allocate and initialize x86's GDT, IDT, TSS, segments, and default
exception handlers at VM creation, instead of forcing tests to
manually trigger the related setup.

Pull modules updates from Luis Chamberlain:
"Finally something fun. Mike Rapoport does some cleanup to allow us to
take out module_alloc() out of modules into a new paint shedded
execmem_alloc() and execmem_free() so to make emphasis these helpers
are actually used outside of modules.
It starts with a non-functional changes API rename / placeholders to
then allow architectures to define their requirements into a new shiny
struct execmem_info with ranges, and requirements for those ranges.
Archs now can intitialize this execmem_info as the last part of
mm_core_init() if they have to diverge from the norm. Each range is a
known type clearly articulated and spelled out in enum execmem_type.
Although a lot of this is major cleanup and prep work for future
enhancements an immediate clear gain is we get to enable KPROBES
without MODULES now. That is ultimately what motiviated to pick this
work up again, now with smaller goal as concrete stepping stone"

Pull interrupt subsystem updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Core code:
- Interrupt storm detection for the lockup watchdog:
Lockups which are caused by interrupt storms are not easy to debug
because there is no information about the events which make the
lockup detector trigger.
To make this more user friendly, provide an extenstion to interrupt
statistics which allows to take snapshots and an interface to
retrieve the delta to the snapshot. Use this new mechanism in the
watchdog code to do a two stage lockup analysis by taking the
snapshot and printing the deltas for the topmost active interrupts
on the second trigger.
Note: This contains both the interrupt and the watchdog changes as
the latter depend on the former obviously.
- Avoid summation loops in the /proc/interrupts output and use the
global counter when possible
- Skip suspended interrupts on CPU hotplug operations to ensure that
they are not delivered before the system resumes the device drivers
when coming out of suspend.
- On CPU hot-unplug interrupts which are affine to the outgoing CPU
are migrated to a different CPU in the affinity mask. This can fail
when the CPUs have no vectors left. Instead of giving up try to
migrate it to any online CPU and thereby breaking the affinity
setting in order to prevent a stale device interrupt which targets
an offline CPU
- The usual small cleanups
Driver code:
- Support for the RISCV AIA MSI controller
- Make the interrupt allocation for the Loongson PCH controller more
flexible to prevent vector exhaustion
- The usual set of cleanups and fixes all over the place"

Pull timers and timekeeping updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Core code:
- Make timekeeping and VDSO time readouts resilent against math
overflow:
In guest context the kernel is prone to math overflow when the host
defers the timer interrupt due to overload, malfunction or malice.
This can be mitigated by checking the clocksource delta for the
maximum deferrement which is readily available. If that value is
exceeded then the code uses a slowpath function which can handle
the multiplication overflow.
This functionality is enabled unconditionally in the kernel, but
made conditional in the VDSO code. The latter is conditional
because it allows architectures to optimize the check so it is not
causing performance regressions.
On X86 this is achieved by reworking the existing check for
negative TSC deltas as a negative delta obviously exceeds the
maximum deferrement when it is evaluated as an unsigned value. That
avoids two conditionals in the hotpath and allows to hide both the
negative delta and the large delta handling in the same slow path.

powerpc overrides kprobes::alloc_insn_page() to remove writable
permissions when STRICT_MODULE_RWX is on.
Add definition of EXECMEM_KRPOBES to execmem_params to allow using the
generic kprobes::alloc_insn_page() with the desired permissions.
As powerpc uses breakpoint instructions to inject kprobes, it does not
need to constrain kprobe allocations to the modules area and can use the
entire vmalloc address space.

Extend execmem parameters to accommodate more complex overrides of
module_alloc() by architectures.
This includes specification of a fallback range required by arm, arm64
and powerpc, EXECMEM_MODULE_DATA type required by powerpc, support for
allocation of KASAN shadow required by s390 and x86 and support for
late initialization of execmem required by arm64.
The core implementation of execmem_alloc() takes care of suppressing
warnings when the initial allocation fails but there is a fallback range
defined.

module_alloc() is used everywhere as a mean to allocate memory for code.
Beside being semantically wrong, this unnecessarily ties all subsystems
that need to allocate code, such as ftrace, kprobes and BPF to modules and
puts the burden of code allocation to the modules code.
Several architectures override module_alloc() because of various
constraints where the executable memory can be located and this causes
additional obstacles for improvements of code allocation.
Start splitting code allocation from modules by introducing execmem_alloc()
and execmem_free() APIs.
Initially, execmem_alloc() is a wrapper for module_alloc() and
execmem_free() is a replacement of module_memfree() to allow updating all
call sites to use the new APIs.
Since architectures define different restrictions on placement,
permissions, alignment and other parameters for memory that can be used by
different subsystems that allocate executable memory, execmem_alloc() takes
a type argument, that will be used to identify the calling subsystem and to
allow architectures define parameters for ranges suitable for that
subsystem.
No functional changes.
