commit 1411b5218adbcf1d45ddb260db5553c52e8d917c upstream.

In the vmx AES init routines we do a printk(KERN_INFO ...) to report
the fallback implementation we're using.

However with a slow console this can significantly affect the speed of
crypto operations. Using 'cryptsetup benchmark' the removal of the
printk() leads to a ~5x speedup for aes-cbc decryption.

So remove them.

Fixes: 8c755ace357c ("crypto: vmx - Adding CBC routines for VMX module")
Fixes: 4f7f60d312b3 ("crypto: vmx - Adding CTR routines for VMX module")

<title>kvm: x86: use correct privilege level for sgdt/sidt/fxsave/fxrstor access</title>

commit 3c9fa24ca7c9c47605672916491f79e8ccacb9e6 upstream.

The functions that were used in the emulation of fxrstor, fxsave, sgdt and
sidt were originally meant for task switching, and as such they did not
check privilege levels.  This is very bad when the same functions are used
in the emulation of unprivileged instructions.  This is CVE-2018-10853.

The obvious fix is to add a new argument to ops-&gt;read_std and ops-&gt;write_std,
which decides whether the access is a "system" access or should use the
processor's CPL.

<title>vmw_balloon: fixing double free when batching mode is off</title>

commit b23220fe054e92f616b82450fae8cd3ab176cc60 upstream.

The balloon.page field is used for two different purposes if batching is
on or off. If batching is on, the field point to the page which is used
to communicate with with the hypervisor. If it is off, balloon.page
points to the page that is about to be (un)locked.

Unfortunately, this dual-purpose of the field introduced a bug: when the
balloon is popped (e.g., when the machine is reset or the balloon driver
is explicitly removed), the balloon driver frees, unconditionally, the
page that is held in balloon.page.  As a result, if batching is
disabled, this leads to double freeing the last page that is sent to the
hypervisor.

The following error occurs during rmmod when kernel checkers are on, and
the balloon is not empty:

commit aa2f80e752c75e593b3820f42c416ed9458fa73e upstream.

The best granularity of residue that DMA engine can report is in the BURST
units, so the serial driver must use MAXBURST = 1 and DMA_SLAVE_BUSWIDTH_1_BYTE
if it relies on exact number of bytes transferred by DMA engine.

commit ce14e868a54edeb2e30cb7a7b104a2fc4b9d76ca upstream.

Int the next patch the emulator's .read_std and .write_std callbacks will
grow another argument, which is not needed in kvm_read_guest_virt and
kvm_write_guest_virt_system's callers.  Since we have to make separate
functions, let's give the currently existing names a nicer interface, too.

Wrap the common invocation of ctxt-&gt;ops-&gt;read_std and ctxt-&gt;ops-&gt;write_std, so
as to have a smaller patch when the functions grow another argument.

<title>Clarify (and fix) MAX_LFS_FILESIZE macros</title>

commit 0cc3b0ec23ce4c69e1e890ed2b8d2fa932b14aad upstream.

We have a MAX_LFS_FILESIZE macro that is meant to be filled in by
filesystems (and other IO targets) that know they are 64-bit clean and
don't have any 32-bit limits in their IO path.

It turns out that our 32-bit value for that limit was bogus.  On 32-bit,
the VM layer is limited by the page cache to only 32-bit index values,
but our logic for that was confusing and actually wrong.  We used to
define that value to

	(((loff_t)PAGE_SIZE &lt;&lt; (BITS_PER_LONG-1))-1)

which is actually odd in several ways: it limits the index to 31 bits,
and then it limits files so that they can't have data in that last byte
of a page that has the highest 31-bit index (ie page index 0x7fffffff).

Neither of those limitations make sense.  The index is actually the full
32 bit unsigned value, and we can use that whole full page.  So the
maximum size of the file would logically be "PAGE_SIZE &lt;&lt; BITS_PER_LONG".

However, we do wan tto avoid the maximum index, because we have code
that iterates over the page indexes, and we don't want that code to
overflow.  So the maximum size of a file on a 32-bit host should
actually be one page less than the full 32-bit index.

So the actual limit is ULONG_MAX &lt;&lt; PAGE_SHIFT.  That means that we will
not actually be using the page of that last index (ULONG_MAX), but we
can grow a file up to that limit.

The wrong value of MAX_LFS_FILESIZE actually caused problems for Doug
Nazar, who was still using a 32-bit host, but with a 9.7TB 2 x RAID5
volume.  It turns out that our old MAX_LFS_FILESIZE was 8TiB (well, one
byte less), but the actual true VM limit is one page less than 16TiB.

This was invisible until commit c2a9737f45e2 ("vfs,mm: fix a dead loop
in truncate_inode_pages_range()"), which started applying that
MAX_LFS_FILESIZE limit to block devices too.

NOTE! On 64-bit, the page index isn't a limiter at all, and the limit is
actually just the offset type itself (loff_t), which is signed.  But for
clarity, on 64-bit, just use the maximum signed value, and don't make
people have to count the number of 'f' characters in the hex constant.

So just use LLONG_MAX for the 64-bit case.  That was what the value had
been before too, just written out as a hex constant.
