reworks the KEXEC Handover interfaces in preparation for Live Update
Orchestrator (LUO), and possibly for other future clients
- "kho: simplify state machine and enable dynamic updates" (Pasha Tatashin)
increases the flexibility of KEXEC Handover. Also preparation for LUO
- "Live Update Orchestrator" (Pasha Tatashin)
is a major new feature targeted at cloud environments. Quoting the
cover letter:
This series introduces the Live Update Orchestrator, a kernel
subsystem designed to facilitate live kernel updates using a
kexec-based reboot. This capability is critical for cloud
environments, allowing hypervisors to be updated with minimal
downtime for running virtual machines. LUO achieves this by
preserving the state of selected resources, such as memory,
devices and their dependencies, across the kernel transition.
As a key feature, this series includes support for preserving
memfd file descriptors, which allows critical in-memory data, such
as guest RAM or any other large memory region, to be maintained in
RAM across the kexec reboot.
Mike Rappaport merits a mention here, for his extensive review and
testing work.
- "kexec: reorganize kexec and kdump sysfs" (Sourabh Jain)
moves the kexec and kdump sysfs entries from /sys/kernel/ to
/sys/kernel/kexec/ and adds back-compatibility symlinks which can

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"ARM:
- Support for userspace handling of synchronous external aborts
(SEAs), allowing the VMM to potentially handle the abort in a
non-fatal manner
- Large rework of the VGIC's list register handling with the goal of
supporting more active/pending IRQs than available list registers
in hardware. In addition, the VGIC now supports EOImode==1 style
deactivations for IRQs which may occur on a separate vCPU than the
one that acked the IRQ
- Support for FEAT_XNX (user / privileged execute permissions) and
FEAT_HAF (hardware update to the Access Flag) in the software page
table walkers and shadow MMU
- Allow page table destruction to reschedule, fixing long
need_resched latencies observed when destroying a large VM
- Minor fixes to KVM and selftests
Loongarch:
- Get VM PMU capability from HW GCFG register
- Add AVEC basic support
- Use 64-bit register definition for EIOINTC
- Add KVM timer test cases for tools/selftests
RISC/V:
- SBI message passing (MPXY) support for KVM guest
- Give a new, more specific error subcode for the case when in-kernel
AIA virtualization fails to allocate IMSIC VS-file
- Support KVM_DIRTY_LOG_INITIALLY_SET, enabling dirty log gradually
in small chunks
- Fix guest page fault within HLV* instructions
- Flush VS-stage TLB after VCPU migration for Andes cores
s390:
- Always allocate ESCA (Extended System Control Area), instead of
starting with the basic SCA and converting to ESCA with the
addition of the 65th vCPU. The price is increased number of exits
(and worse performance) on z10 and earlier processor; ESCA was
introduced by z114/z196 in 2010
- VIRT_XFER_TO_GUEST_WORK support
- Operation exception forwarding support
- Cleanups
x86:
- Skip the costly "zap all SPTEs" on an MMIO generation wrap if MMIO
SPTE caching is disabled, as there can't be any relevant SPTEs to
zap
- Relocate a misplaced export
- Fix an async #PF bug where KVM would clear the completion queue
when the guest transitioned in and out of paging mode, e.g. when
handling an SMI and then returning to paged mode via RSM
- Leave KVM's user-return notifier registered even when disabling
virtualization, as long as kvm.ko is loaded. On reboot/shutdown,
keeping the notifier registered is ok; the kernel does not use the
MSRs and the callback will run cleanly and restore host MSRs if the
CPU manages to return to userspace before the system goes down
- Use the checked version of {get,put}_user()
- Fix a long-lurking bug where KVM's lack of catch-up logic for
periodic APIC timers can result in a hard lockup in the host
- Revert the periodic kvmclock sync logic now that KVM doesn't use a
clocksource that's subject to NTP corrections
- Clean up KVM's handling of MMIO Stale Data and L1TF, and bury the
latter behind CONFIG_CPU_MITIGATIONS
- Context switch XCR0, XSS, and PKRU outside of the entry/exit fast
path; the only reason they were handled in the fast path was to
paper of a bug in the core #MC code, and that has long since been
fixed
- Add emulator support for AVX MOV instructions, to play nice with
emulated devices whose guest drivers like to access PCI BARs with
large multi-byte instructions
x86 (AMD):
- Fix a few missing "VMCB dirty" bugs
- Fix the worst of KVM's lack of EFER.LMSLE emulation
- Add AVIC support for addressing 4k vCPUs in x2AVIC mode
- Fix incorrect handling of selective CR0 writes when checking
intercepts during emulation of L2 instructions
- Fix a currently-benign bug where KVM would clobber SPEC_CTRL[63:32]
on VMRUN and #VMEXIT
- Fix a bug where KVM corrupt the guest code stream when re-injecting
a soft interrupt if the guest patched the underlying code after the
VM-Exit, e.g. when Linux patches code with a temporary INT3
- Add KVM_X86_SNP_POLICY_BITS to advertise supported SNP policy bits
to userspace, and extend KVM "support" to all policy bits that
don't require any actual support from KVM
x86 (Intel):
- Use the root role from kvm_mmu_page to construct EPTPs instead of
the current vCPU state, partly as worthwhile cleanup, but mostly to
pave the way for tracking per-root TLB flushes, and elide EPT
flushes on pCPU migration if the root is clean from a previous
flush
- Add a few missing nested consistency checks
- Rip out support for doing "early" consistency checks via hardware
as the functionality hasn't been used in years and is no longer
useful in general; replace it with an off-by-default module param
to WARN if hardware fails a check that KVM does not perform
- Fix a currently-benign bug where KVM would drop the guest's
SPEC_CTRL[63:32] on VM-Enter
- Misc cleanups
- Overhaul the TDX code to address systemic races where KVM (acting
on behalf of userspace) could inadvertantly trigger lock contention
in the TDX-Module; KVM was either working around these in weird,
ugly ways, or was simply oblivious to them (though even Yan's
devilish selftests could only break individual VMs, not the host
kernel)
- Fix a bug where KVM could corrupt a vCPU's cpu_list when freeing a
TDX vCPU, if creating said vCPU failed partway through
- Fix a few sparse warnings (bad annotation, 0 != NULL)
- Use struct_size() to simplify copying TDX capabilities to userspace
- Fix a bug where TDX would effectively corrupt user-return MSR
values if the TDX Module rejects VP.ENTER and thus doesn't clobber
host MSRs as expected
Selftests:
- Fix a math goof in mmu_stress_test when running on a single-CPU
system/VM
- Forcefully override ARCH from x86_64 to x86 to play nice with
specifying ARCH=x86_64 on the command line
- Extend a bunch of nested VMX to validate nested SVM as well
- Add support for LA57 in the core VM_MODE_xxx macro, and add a test
to verify KVM can save/restore nested VMX state when L1 is using
5-level paging, but L2 is not
- Clean up the guest paging code in anticipation of sharing the core
logic for nested EPT and nested NPT
guest_memfd:
- Add NUMA mempolicy support for guest_memfd, and clean up a variety
of rough edges in guest_memfd along the way
- Define a CLASS to automatically handle get+put when grabbing a
guest_memfd from a memslot to make it harder to leak references
- Enhance KVM selftests to make it easer to develop and debug
selftests like those added for guest_memfd NUMA support, e.g. where
test and/or KVM bugs often result in hard-to-debug SIGBUS errors
- Misc cleanups
Generic:
- Use the recently-added WQ_PERCPU when creating the per-CPU
workqueue for irqfd cleanup
- Fix a goof in the dirty ring documentation
- Fix choice of target for directed yield across different calls to
kvm_vcpu_on_spin(); the function was always starting from the first
vCPU instead of continuing the round-robin search"

Root partitions running on MSHV currently attempt ACPI power-off, which
MSHV intercepts and triggers a Machine Check Exception (MCE), leading
to a kernel panic.
Root partitions panic with a trace similar to:
[ 81.306348] reboot: Power down
[ 81.314709] mce: [Hardware Error]: CPU 0: Machine Check Exception: 4 Bank 0: b2000000c0060001

[ 81.314716] mce: [Hardware Error]: Machine check: Processor context corrupt
[ 81.314717] Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal machine check
To avoid this, configure the sleep state in the hypervisor and invoke
the HVCALL_ENTER_SLEEP_STATE hypercall as the final step in the shutdown
sequence. This ensures a clean and safe shutdown of the root partition.

Pull x86 CPU feature updates from Dave Hansen:
"The biggest thing of note here is Linear Address Space Separation
(LASS). It represents the first time I can think of that the
upper=>kernel/lower=>user address space convention is actually
recognized by the hardware on x86. It ensures that userspace can not
even get the hardware to _start_ page walks for the kernel address
space. This, of course, is a really nice generic side channel defense.
This is really only a down payment on LASS support. There are still
some details to work out in its interaction with EFI calls and
vsyscall emulation. For now, LASS is disabled if either of those
features is compiled in (which is almost always the case).
There's also one straggler commit in here which converts an
under-utilized AMD CPU feature leaf into a generic Linux-defined leaf
so more feature can be packed in there.
Summary:
- Enable Linear Address Space Separation (LASS)
- Change X86_FEATURE leaf 17 from an AMD leaf to Linux-defined"

blobs loading to a non-critical path so that microcode loading

This scheme is also opportunistic as in: on a failure, the machinery
falls back to normal loading
- Add the capability to the AMD side of the loader to select one of two
per-family/model/stepping patches: one is pre-Entrysign and the other
is post-Entrysign; with the goal to take care of machines which
haven't updated their BIOS yet - something they should absolutely do

After this, the AMD MCA deferred errors, thresholding and corrected

integrated into the core MCA code, thereby getting rid of
considerable duplication. All culminating into allowing CMCI error
thresholding storms to be detected at AMD too, using the common
infrastructure

whether the error address logged is a system physical address, which
obviates the need for it to be translated before further error
recovery can be done

Pull rseq updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A large overhaul of the restartable sequences and CID management:
The recent enablement of RSEQ in glibc resulted in regressions which
are caused by the related overhead. It turned out that the decision to
invoke the exit to user work was not really a decision. More or less
each context switch caused that. There is a long list of small issues
which sums up nicely and results in a 3-4% regression in I/O
benchmarks.
The other detail which caused issues due to extra work in context
switch and task migration is the CID (memory context ID) management.
It also requires to use a task work to consolidate the CID space,
which is executed in the context of an arbitrary task and results in
sporadic uncontrolled exit latencies.
The rewrite addresses this by:
- Removing deprecated and long unsupported functionality
- Moving the related data into dedicated data structures which are
optimized for fast path processing.
- Caching values so actual decisions can be made
- Replacing the current implementation with a optimized inlined
variant.
- Separating fast and slow path for architectures which use the
generic entry code, so that only fault and error handling goes into
the TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME handler.
- Rewriting the CID management so that it becomes mostly invisible in
the context switch path. That moves the work of switching modes
into the fork/exit path, which is a reasonable tradeoff. That work
is only required when a process creates more threads than the
cpuset it is allowed to run on or when enough threads exit after
that. An artificial thread pool benchmarks which triggers this did
not degrade, it actually improved significantly.
The main effect in migration heavy scenarios is that runqueue lock
held time and therefore contention goes down significantly"

Pull scoped user access updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Scoped user mode access and related changes:
- Implement the missing u64 user access function on ARM when
CONFIG_CPU_SPECTRE=n.
This makes it possible to access a 64bit value in generic code with
[unsafe_]get_user(). All other architectures and ARM variants
provide the relevant accessors already.
- Ensure that ASM GOTO jump label usage in the user mode access
helpers always goes through a local C scope label indirection
inside the helpers.
This is required because compilers are not supporting that a ASM
GOTO target leaves a auto cleanup scope. GCC silently fails to emit
the cleanup invocation and CLANG fails the build.
[ Editor's note: gcc-16 will have fixed the code generation issue
in commit f68fe3ddda4 ("eh: Invoke cleanups/destructors in asm
goto jumps [PR122835]"). But we obviously have to deal with clang
and older versions of gcc, so.. - Linus ]
This provides generic wrapper macros and the conversion of affected
architecture code to use them.
- Scoped user mode access with auto cleanup
Access to user mode memory can be required in hot code paths, but
if it has to be done with user controlled pointers, the access is
shielded with a speculation barrier, so that the CPU cannot
speculate around the address range check. Those speculation
barriers impact performance quite significantly.
This cost can be avoided by "masking" the provided pointer so it is
guaranteed to be in the valid user memory access range and
otherwise to point to a guaranteed unpopulated address space. This
has to be done without branches so it creates an address dependency
for the access, which the CPU cannot speculate ahead.
This results in repeating and error prone programming patterns:
if (can_do_masked_user_access())
from = masked_user_read_access_begin((from));
else if (!user_read_access_begin(from, sizeof(*from)))
return -EFAULT;
unsafe_get_user(val, from, Efault);
user_read_access_end();
return 0;
Efault:
user_read_access_end();
return -EFAULT;
which can be replaced with scopes and automatic cleanup:
scoped_user_read_access(from, Efault)
unsafe_get_user(val, from, Efault);
return 0;
Efault:
return -EFAULT;
- Convert code which implements the above pattern over to
scope_user.*.access(). This also corrects a couple of imbalanced
masked_*_begin() instances which are harmless on most
architectures, but prevent PowerPC from implementing the masking
optimization.
- Add a missing speculation barrier in copy_from_user_iter()"

Pull objtool updates from Ingo Molnar:
- klp-build livepatch module generation (Josh Poimboeuf)
Introduce new objtool features and a klp-build script to generate
livepatch modules using a source .patch as input.
This builds on concepts from the longstanding out-of-tree kpatch
project which began in 2012 and has been used for many years to
generate livepatch modules for production kernels. However, this is a
complete rewrite which incorporates hard-earned lessons from 12+
years of maintaining kpatch.
Key improvements compared to kpatch-build:
- Integrated with objtool: Leverages objtool's existing control-flow
graph analysis to help detect changed functions.
- Works on vmlinux.o: Supports late-linked objects, making it
compatible with LTO, IBT, and similar.
- Simplified code base: ~3k fewer lines of code.
- Upstream: No more out-of-tree #ifdef hacks, far less cruft.
- Cleaner internals: Vastly simplified logic for
symbol/section/reloc inclusion and special section extraction.
- Robust __LINE__ macro handling: Avoids false positive binary diffs
caused by the __LINE__ macro by introducing a fix-patch-lines
script which injects #line directives into the source .patch to
preserve the original line numbers at compile time.
- Disassemble code with libopcodes instead of running objdump
(Alexandre Chartre)
- Disassemble support (-d option to objtool) by Alexandre Chartre,
which supports the decoding of various Linux kernel code generation

Encoding a relative NULL pointer doesn't work for KASLR, when the
whole kernel image gets shifted, the __bug_table and the target string
get shifted by the same amount and the relative offset is preserved.
However when the target is an absolute 0 value and the __bug_table
gets moved about, the end result in a pointer equivalent to
kaslr_offset(), not NULL.
Notably, this will generate SHN_UNDEF relocations, and Ard would
really like to not have those at all.
Use the empty string to denote no-string.

KVM SVM changes for 6.19:
- Fix a few missing "VMCB dirty" bugs.
- Fix the worst of KVM's lack of EFER.LMSLE emulation.
- Add AVIC support for addressing 4k vCPUs in x2AVIC mode.
- Fix incorrect handling of selective CR0 writes when checking intercepts
during emulation of L2 instructions.
- Fix a currently-benign bug where KVM would clobber SPEC_CTRL[63:32] on
VMRUN and #VMEXIT.
- Fix a bug where KVM corrupt the guest code stream when re-injecting a soft
interrupt if the guest patched the underlying code after the VM-Exit, e.g.
when Linux patches code with a temporary INT3.
- Add KVM_X86_SNP_POLICY_BITS to advertise supported SNP policy bits to
userspace, and extend KVM "support" to all policy bits that don't require
any actual support from KVM.

KVM TDX changes for 6.19:
- Overhaul the TDX code to address systemic races where KVM (acting on behalf
of userspace) could inadvertantly trigger lock contention in the TDX-Module,
which KVM was either working around in weird, ugly ways, or was simply
oblivious to (as proven by Yan tripping several KVM_BUG_ON()s with clever
selftests).
- Fix a bug where KVM could corrupt a vCPU's cpu_list when freeing a vCPU if
creating said vCPU failed partway through.
- Fix a few sparse warnings (bad annotation, 0 != NULL).
- Use struct_size() to simplify copying capabilities to userspace.

KVM x86 misc changes for 6.19:
- Fix an async #PF bug where KVM would clear the completion queue when the
guest transitioned in and out of paging mode, e.g. when handling an SMI and
then returning to paged mode via RSM.
- Fix a bug where TDX would effectively corrupt user-return MSR values if the
TDX Module rejects VP.ENTER and thus doesn't clobber host MSRs as expected.
- Leave the user-return notifier used to restore MSRs registered when
disabling virtualization, and instead pin kvm.ko. Restoring host MSRs via
IPI callback is either pointless (clean reboot) or dangerous (forced reboot)
since KVM has no idea what code it's interrupting.
- Use the checked version of {get,put}_user(), as Linus wants to kill them
off, and they're measurably faster on modern CPUs due to the unchecked
versions containing an LFENCE.
- Fix a long-lurking bug where KVM's lack of catch-up logic for periodic APIC
timers can result in a hard lockup in the host.
- Revert the periodic kvmclock sync logic now that KVM doesn't use a
clocksource that's subject to NPT corrections.
- Clean up KVM's handling of MMIO Stale Data and L1TF, and bury the latter
behind CONFIG_CPU_MITIGATIONS.
- Context switch XCR0, XSS, and PKRU outside of the entry/exit fastpath as
the only reason they were handled in the faspath was to paper of a bug in
the core #MC code that has long since been fixed.
- Add emulator support for AVX MOV instructions to play nice with emulated
devices whose PCI BARs guest drivers like to access with large multi-byte
instructions.

(Ab)use the static_call infrastructure to convert all:
call __WARN_trap
instances into the desired:
ud1 (%edx), %rdi
eliminating the CALL/RET, but more importantly, fixing the
fact that all WARNs will have:
RIP: 0010:__WARN_trap+0
Basically, by making it a static_call trampoline call, objtool will
collect the callsites, and then the inline rewrite will hit the
special case and replace the code with the magic instruction.

The basic idea is to have __WARN_printf() be a vararg function such
that the compiler can do the optimal calling convention for us. This
function body will be a #UD and then set up a va_list in the exception
from pt_regs.
But because the trap will be in a called function, the bug_entry must
be passed in. Have that be the first argument, with the format tucked
away inside the bug_entry.
The comments should clarify the real fun details.
The big downside is that all WARNs will now show:
RIP: 0010:__WARN_trap:+0
One possible solution is to simply discard the top frame when
unwinding. A follow up patch takes care of this slightly differently
by abusing the x86 static_call implementation.
This changes (with the next patches):
WARN_ONCE(preempt_count() != 2*PREEMPT_DISABLE_OFFSET,
"corrupted preempt_count: %s/%d/0x%x\n",
from:
cmpl $2, %ecx #, _7

Notably, by pushing everything into the exception handler it can take
care of the ONCE thing.

Enforcement
Smart Data Cache Injection (SDCI) is a mechanism that enables direct insertion
of data from I/O devices into the L3 cache. By directly caching data from I/O
devices rather than first storing the I/O data in DRAM, SDCI reduces demands on
DRAM bandwidth and reduces latency to the processor consuming the I/O data.
The SDCIAE (SDCI Allocation Enforcement) PQE feature allows system software to
control the portion of the L3 cache used for SDCI.
When enabled, SDCIAE forces all SDCI lines to be placed into the L3 cache
partitions identified by the highest-supported L3_MASK_n register, where n is
the maximum supported CLOSID.
Add CPUID feature bit that can be used to configure SDCIAE.
The SDCIAE feature details are documented in:
AMD64 Architecture Programmer's Manual Volume 2: System Programming
Publication # 24593 Revision 3.41 section 19.4.7 L3 Smart Data Cache
Injection Allocation Enforcement (SDCIAE).

Starting with Zen6, AMD's Scalable MCA systems will incorporate two new bits in
MCA_STATUS and MCA_CONFIG MSRs. These bits will indicate if a valid System
Physical Address (SPA) is present in MCA_ADDR.
PhysAddrValidSupported bit (MCA_CONFIG[11]) serves as the architectural
indicator and states if PhysAddrV bit (MCA_STATUS[54]) is Reserved or if it
indicates validity of SPA in MCA_ADDR.
PhysAddrV bit (MCA_STATUS[54]) advertises if MCA_ADDR contains valid SPA or if
it is implementation specific.
Use and prefer MCA_STATUS[PhysAddrV] when checking for a usable address.

The MCA threshold limit generally is not something that needs to change during
runtime. It is common for a system administrator to decide on a policy for
their managed systems.
If MCA thresholding is OS-managed, then the threshold limit must be set at
every boot. However, many systems allow the user to set a value in their BIOS.
And this is reported through an APEI HEST entry even if thresholding is not in
FW-First mode.
Use this value, if available, to set the OS-managed threshold limit. Users
can still override it through sysfs if desired for testing or debug.
APEI is parsed after MCE is initialized. So reset the thresholding blocks
later to pick up the threshold limit.

gcc generates horrid code for both ((u64)u32_a * u32_b) and (u64_a +
u32_b). As well as the extra instructions it can generate a lot of spills
to stack (including spills of constant zeros and even multiplies by
constant zero).
mul_u32_u32() already exists to optimise the multiply. Add a similar
add_u64_32() for the addition. Disable both for clang - it generates
better code without them.
Move the 64x64 => 128 multiply into a static inline helper function for
code clarity. No need for the a/b_hi/lo variables, the implicit casts on
the function calls do the work for us. Should have minimal effect on the
generated code.
Use mul_u32_u32() and add_u64_u32() in the 64x64 => 128 multiply in
mul_u64_add_u64_div_u64().

The existing mul_u64_u64_div_u64() rounds down, a 'rounding up' variant
needs 'divisor - 1' adding in between the multiply and divide so cannot
easily be done by a caller.
Add mul_u64_add_u64_div_u64(a, b, c, d) that calculates (a * b + c)/d and
implement the 'round down' and 'round up' using it.
Update the x86-64 asm to optimise for 'c' being a constant zero.
Add kerndoc definitions for all three functions.

Currently the tracking of the need to flush L1D for L1TF is tracked by
two bits: one per-CPU and one per-vCPU.
The per-vCPU bit is always set when the vCPU shows up on a core, so
there is no interesting state that's truly per-vCPU. Indeed, this is a
requirement, since L1D is a part of the physical CPU.
So simplify this by combining the two bits.
The vCPU bit was being written from preemption-enabled regions. To play
nice with those cases, wrap all calls from KVM and use a raw write so that
request a flush with preemption enabled doesn't trigger what would
effectively be DEBUG_PREEMPT false positives. Preemption doesn't need to
be disabled, as kvm_arch_vcpu_load() will mark the new CPU as needing a
flush if the vCPU task is migrated, or if userspace runs the vCPU on a
different task.
