commit ec663d967b2276448a416406ca59ff247c0c80c5 upstream.

Commit cab15ce604e5 ("arm64: Introduce execute-only page access
permissions") allowed a valid user PTE to have the PTE_USER bit clear.
As a consequence, the pte_valid_not_user() macro in set_pte() was
replaced with pte_valid_global() under the assumption that only user
pages have the nG bit set. EFI mappings, however, also have the nG bit
set and set_pte() wrongly ignores issuing the DSB+ISB.

This patch reinstates the pte_valid_not_user() macro and adds the
PTE_UXN bit check since all kernel mappings have this bit set. For
clarity, pte_exec() is renamed to pte_user_exec() as it only checks for
the absence of PTE_UXN. Consequently, the user executable check in
set_pte_at() drops the pte_ng() test since pte_user_exec() is
sufficient.

<title>arm/arm64: KVM: Enforce unconditional flush to PoC when mapping to stage-2</title>

commit 8f36ebaf21fdae99c091c67e8b6fab33969f2667 upstream.

When we fault in a page, we flush it to the PoC (Point of Coherency)
if the faulting vcpu has its own caches off, so that it can observe
the page we just brought it.

But if the vcpu has its caches on, we skip that step. Bad things
happen when *another* vcpu tries to access that page with its own
caches disabled. At that point, there is no garantee that the
data has made it to the PoC, and we access stale data.

The obvious fix is to always flush to PoC when a page is faulted
in, no matter what the state of the vcpu is.

commit 1c8a946bf3754a59cba1fc373949a8114bfe5aaa upstream.

The arm64 __page_to_voff() macro takes a parameter called 'page', and
also refers to 'struct page'. Thus, if the value passed in is not
called 'page', we'll refer to the wrong struct name (which might not
exist).

commit aeb1f39d814b2e21e5e5706a48834bfd553d0059 upstream.

This patch adds an explicit __reserved[] field to user_fpsimd_state
to replace what was previously unnamed padding.

This ensures that data in this region are propagated across
assignment rather than being left possibly uninitialised at the
destination.

<title>KVM: arm64: Fix the issues when guest PMCCFILTR is configured</title>

KVM calls kvm_pmu_set_counter_event_type() when PMCCFILTR is configured.
But this function can't deals with PMCCFILTR correctly because the evtCount
bits of PMCCFILTR, which is reserved 0, conflits with the SW_INCR event
type of other PMXEVTYPER&lt;n&gt; registers. To fix it, when eventsel == 0, this
function shouldn't return immediately; instead it needs to check further
if select_idx is ARMV8_PMU_CYCLE_IDX.

Another issue is that KVM shouldn't copy the eventsel bits of PMCCFILTER
blindly to attr.config. Instead it ought to convert the request to the
"cpu cycle" event type (i.e. 0x11).

To support this patch and to prevent duplicated definitions, a limited
set of ARMv8 perf event types were relocated from perf_event.c to
asm/perf_event.h.

Commit efd9e03facd0 ("arm64: Use static keys for CPU features")
introduced support for static keys in asm/cpufeature.h, including
linux/jump_label.h. When CC_HAVE_ASM_GOTO is not defined, this causes a
circular dependency via linux/atomic.h, asm/lse.h and asm/cpufeature.h.

This patch moves the capability macros out out of asm/cpufeature.h into
a separate asm/cpucaps.h and modifies some of the #includes accordingly.

Architecturally, TLBs are private to the (physical) CPU they're
associated with. But when multiple vcpus from the same VM are
being multiplexed on the same CPU, the TLBs are not private
to the vcpus (and are actually shared across the VMID).

Let's consider the following scenario:

- vcpu-0 maps PA to VA
- vcpu-1 maps PA' to VA

If run on the same physical CPU, vcpu-1 can hit TLB entries generated
by vcpu-0 accesses, and access the wrong physical page.

The solution to this is to keep a per-VM map of which vcpu ran last
on each given physical CPU, and invalidate local TLBs when switching
to a different vcpu from the same VM.
