Make sure resources are not improperly shared in the op cache and
cause instruction corruption this way.

Some future AMD processors have feature named "CPPC Performance
Priority" which lets userspace specify different floor performance
levels for different CPUs. The platform firmware takes these different
floor performance levels into consideration while throttling the CPUs
under power/thermal constraints. The presence of this feature is
indicated by bit 16 of the EDX register for CPUID leaf
0x80000007. More details can be found in AMD Publication titled "AMD64
Collaborative Processor Performance Control (CPPC) Performance
Priority" Revision 1.10.
Define a new feature bit named X86_FEATURE_CPPC_PERF_PRIO to map to
CPUID 0x80000007.EDX[16].

msr_set_bit() takes a bit number to set but MSR_ZEN2_SPECTRAL_CHICKEN_BIT
is a bit mask. The usual pattern that code uses is a _BIT-named type
macro instead of a mask.
So convert it to a bit number to reflect that.
Also, msr_set_bit() already does the reading and checking whether the
bit needs to be set so use that instead of a local variable.
Fixup tabbing while at it.
No functional changes.

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"

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
specials such as alternatives:

Add a function to get the name of a CPU feature. The function is
architecture dependent and currently only implemented for x86. The
feature names are automatically generated from the cpufeatures.h
include file.

The 'perf kvm-stat' tool uses the exit reasons that are included in the

is), so shouldn't be causing any change in behaviour, this patch ends up
being just addressess the following perf build warning:

Quotation marks in cpufeatures.h comments are special and when the
comment begins with a quoted string, that string lands in /proc/cpuinfo,
turning it into a user-visible one.
The LKGS comment doesn't begin with a quoted string but just in case
drop the quoted "kernel" in there to avoid confusion. And while at it,
simply change the description into what the LKGS instruction does for
more clarity.
No functional changes.

Pull x86 instruction decoder update from Borislav Petkov:
- Add instruction decoding support for the XOP-prefixed instruction set
present on the AMD Bulldozer uarch
[ These instructions don't normally happen, but a X86_NATIVE_CPU build
on a bulldozer host can make the compiler then use these unusual
instruction encodings ]

Pull performance events updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Core perf code updates:
- Convert mmap() related reference counts to refcount_t. This is in
reaction to the recently fixed refcount bugs, which could have been
detected earlier and could have mitigated the bug somewhat (Thomas
Gleixner, Peter Zijlstra)
- Clean up and simplify the callchain code, in preparation for
sframes (Steven Rostedt, Josh Poimboeuf)
Uprobes updates:
- Add support to optimize usdt probes on x86-64, which gives a
substantial speedup (Jiri Olsa)
- Cleanups and fixes on x86 (Peter Zijlstra)
PMU driver updates:
- Various optimizations and fixes to the Intel PMU driver (Dapeng Mi)
Misc cleanups and fixes:
- Remove redundant __GFP_NOWARN (Qianfeng Rong)"

These have been unused since commit 162607ea20fa ("perf kvm/{x86,s390}:
Remove dependency on uapi/kvm_perf.h") in favour of dynamic discovery.
Remove the unused headers to reduce consistency checking overhead and
noise.

The minimum supported GCC version is 8.1, which supports flag output operands
and always defines __GCC_ASM_FLAG_OUTPUTS__ macro.
Remove code depending on __GCC_ASM_FLAG_OUTPUTS__ and use the "=@ccCOND" flag
output operand directly.
Use the equivalent "=@ccz" instead of "=@cce" flag output operand for
CMPXCHG8B and CMPXCHG16B instructions. These instructions set a single flag
bit - the Zero flag - and "=@ccz" is used to distinguish the CC user from
comparison instructions, where set ZERO flag indeed means that the values are
equal.

Import iosubmit_cmds512() from arch/x86/include/asm/io.h into tools/ so
it can be used by VFIO selftests to interact with Intel DSA devices.
Also pull in movdir64b() from arch/x86/include/asm/special_insns.h into
tools/, which is the underlying instruction used by iosubmit_cmds512().

IA32_PERF_CAPABILITIES.PEBS_TIMING_INFO[bit 17] is introduced to
indicate whether timed PEBS is supported. Timed PEBS adds a new "retired
latency" field in basic info group to show the timing info. Please find
detailed information about timed PEBS in section 8.4.1 "Timed Processor
Event Based Sampling" of "Intel Architecture Instruction Set Extensions
and Future Features".
This patch adds PERF_CAP_PEBS_TIMING_INFO flag and KVM module leverages
this flag to expose timed PEBS feature to guest.
Moreover, opportunistically refine the indents and make the macros
share consistent indents.

Support decoding AMD's XOP prefix encoded instructions.
These instructions are introduced for Bulldozer micro architecture, and not
supported on Intel's processors. But when compiling kernel with
CONFIG_X86_NATIVE_CPU on some AMD processor (e.g. -march=bdver2), these
instructions can be used.

AMD Cyan Skillfish (Family 17h, Model 47h, Stepping 0h) has an error that
causes RDSEED to always return 0xffffffff, while RDRAND works correctly.
Mask the RDSEED cap for this CPU so that both /proc/cpuinfo and direct CPUID
read report RDSEED as unavailable.
