Use atomic_try_cmpxchg() instead of atomic_cmpxchg(*ptr, old, new) == old
in hv_nmi_unknown(). On x86 the CMPXCHG instruction returns success in
the ZF flag, so this change saves a compare after CMPXCHG. The generated
asm code improves from:

The AMD side of the loader issues the microcode revision for each
logical thread on the system, which can become really noisy on huge
machines. And doing that doesn't make a whole lot of sense - the
microcode revision is already in /proc/cpuinfo.
So in case one is interested in the theoretical support of mixed silicon
steppings on AMD, one can check there.
What is also missing on the AMD side - something which people have
requested before - is showing the microcode revision the CPU had
*before* the early update.
So abstract that up in the main code and have the BSP on each vendor
provide those revision numbers.
Then, dump them only once on driver init.
On Intel, do not dump the patch date - it is not needed.

First of all, the print is useless. The driver will either load and say
which microcode revision the machine has or issue an error.
Then, the version number is meaningless and actively confusing, as Yazen
mentioned recently: when a subset of patches are backported to a distro
kernel, one can't assume the driver version is the same as the upstream
one. And besides, the version number of the loader hasn't been used and
incremented for a long time. So drop it.

Pull x86 fixes from Borislav Petkov:

MAINTAINERS: Add Intel TDX entry

Currently, the kernel enumerates the possible CPUs by parsing both ACPI
MADT Local APIC entries and x2APIC entries. So CPUs with "valid" APIC IDs,
even if they have duplicated APIC IDs in Local APIC and x2APIC, are always
enumerated.
Below is what ACPI MADT Local APIC and x2APIC describes on an
Ivebridge-EP system,
[02Ch 0044 1] Subtable Type : 00 [Processor Local APIC]
[02Fh 0047 1] Local Apic ID : 00
...
[164h 0356 1] Subtable Type : 00 [Processor Local APIC]
[167h 0359 1] Local Apic ID : 39
[16Ch 0364 1] Subtable Type : 00 [Processor Local APIC]
[16Fh 0367 1] Local Apic ID : FF
...
[3ECh 1004 1] Subtable Type : 09 [Processor Local x2APIC]
[3F0h 1008 4] Processor x2Apic ID : 00000000
...
[B5Ch 2908 1] Subtable Type : 09 [Processor Local x2APIC]
[B60h 2912 4] Processor x2Apic ID : 00000077
As a result, kernel shows "smpboot: Allowing 168 CPUs, 120 hotplug CPUs".
And this wastes significant amount of memory for the per-cpu data.
Plus this also breaks https://lore.kernel.org/all/87edm36qqb.ffs@tglx/,
because __max_logical_packages is over-estimated by the APIC IDs in
the x2APIC entries.
According to https://uefi.org/specs/ACPI/6.5/05_ACPI_Software_Programming_Model.html#processor-local-x2apic-structure:
"[Compatibility note] On some legacy OSes, Logical processors with APIC
ID values less than 255 (whether in XAPIC or X2APIC mode) must use the
Processor Local APIC structure to convey their APIC information to OSPM,
and those processors must be declared in the DSDT using the Processor()
keyword. Logical processors with APIC ID values 255 and greater must use
the Processor Local x2APIC structure and be declared using the Device()
keyword."
Therefore prevent the registration of x2APIC entries with an APIC ID less
than 255 if the local APIC table enumerates valid APIC IDs.

When a signal is being delivered, the kernel needs to make accesses to
userspace. These accesses could encounter an access error, in which case
the signal delivery itself will trigger a segfault. Usually this would
result in the kernel killing the process. But in the case of a SEGV signal
handler being configured, the failure of the first signal delivery will
result in *another* signal getting delivered. The second signal may
succeed if another thread has resolved the issue that triggered the
segfault (i.e. a well timed mprotect()/mmap()), or the second signal is
being delivered to another stack (i.e. an alt stack).
On x86, in the non-shadow stack case, all the accesses to userspace are
done before changes to the registers (in pt_regs). The operation is
aborted when an access error occurs, so although there may be writes done
for the first signal, control flow changes for the signal (regs->ip,
regs->sp, etc) are not committed until all the accesses have already
completed successfully. This means that the second signal will be
delivered as if it happened at the time of the first signal. It will
effectively replace the first aborted signal, overwriting the half-written
frame of the aborted signal. So on sigreturn from the second signal,
control flow will resume happily from the point of control flow where the
original signal was delivered.
The problem is, when shadow stack is active, the shadow stack SSP
register/MSR is updated *before* some of the userspace accesses. This
means if the earlier accesses succeed and the later ones fail, the second
signal will not be delivered at the same spot on the shadow stack as the
first one. So on sigreturn from the second signal, the SSP will be
pointing to the wrong location on the shadow stack (off by a frame).
Pengfei privately reported that while using a shadow stack enabled glibc,
the “signal06” test in the LTP test-suite hung. It turns out it is
testing the above described double signal scenario. When this test was
compiled with shadow stack, the first signal pushed a shadow stack
sigframe, then the second pushed another. When the second signal was
handled, the SSP was at the first shadow stack signal frame instead of
the original location. The test then got stuck as the #CP from the twice
incremented SSP was incorrect and generated segfaults in a loop.
Fix this by adjusting the SSP register only after any userspace accesses,
such that there can be no failures after the SSP is adjusted. Do this by
moving the shadow stack sigframe push logic to happen after all other
userspace accesses.
Note, sigreturn (as opposed to the signal delivery dealt with in this
patch) has ordering behavior that could lead to similar failures. The
ordering issues there extend beyond shadow stack to include the alt stack
restoration. Fixing that would require cross-arch changes, and the
ordering today does not cause any known test or apps breakages. So leave
it as is, for now.

Pull x86 microcode loading updates from Borislac Petkov:
"Major microcode loader restructuring, cleanup and improvements by
Thomas Gleixner:
- Restructure the code needed for it and add a temporary initrd
mapping on 32-bit so that the loader can access the microcode
blobs. This in itself is a preparation for the next major
improvement:
- Do not load microcode on 32-bit before paging has been enabled.
Handling this has caused an endless stream of headaches, issues,
ugly code and unnecessary hacks in the past. And there really
wasn't any sensible reason to do that in the first place. So switch
the 32-bit loading to happen after paging has been enabled and turn
the loader code "real purrty" again
- Drop mixed microcode steppings loading on Intel - there, a single
patch loaded on the whole system is sufficient
- Rework late loading to track which CPUs have updated microcode
successfully and which haven't, act accordingly
- Move late microcode loading on Intel in NMI context in order to
guarantee concurrent loading on all threads
- Make the late loading CPU-hotplug-safe and have the offlined
threads be woken up for the purpose of the update
- Add support for a minimum revision which determines whether late
microcode loading is safe on a machine and the microcode does not
change software visible features which the machine cannot use
anyway since feature detection has happened already. Roughly, the
minimum revision is the smallest revision number which must be
loaded currently on the system so that late updates can be allowed
- Other nice leanups, fixess, etc all over the place"

Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain:
"To help make the move of sysctls out of kernel/sysctl.c not incur a
size penalty sysctl has been changed to allow us to not require the
sentinel, the final empty element on the sysctl array. Joel Granados
has been doing all this work. On the v6.6 kernel we got the major
infrastructure changes required to support this. For v6.7-rc1 we have
all arch/ and drivers/ modified to remove the sentinel. Both arch and
driver changes have been on linux-next for a bit less than a month. It
is worth re-iterating the value:
- this helps reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run
time memory consumed by the kernel by about ~64 bytes per array
- the extra 64-byte penalty is no longer inncurred now when we move
sysctls out from kernel/sysctl.c to their own files
For v6.8-rc1 expect removal of all the sentinels and also then the
unneeded check for procname == NULL.
The last two patches are fixes recently merged by Krister Johansen
which allow us again to use softlockup_panic early on boot. This used
to work but the alias work broke it. This is useful for folks who want
to detect softlockups super early rather than wait and spend money on
cloud solutions with nothing but an eventual hung kernel. Although
this hadn't gone through linux-next it's also a stable fix, so we
might as well roll through the fixes now"

Pull x86 core updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Limit the hardcoded topology quirk for Hygon CPUs to those which have
a model ID less than 4.
The newer models have the topology CPUID leaf 0xB correctly
implemented and are not affected.
- Make SMT control more robust against enumeration failures
SMT control was added to allow controlling SMT at boottime or
runtime. The primary purpose was to provide a simple mechanism to
disable SMT in the light of speculation attack vectors.
It turned out that the code is sensible to enumeration failures and
worked only by chance for XEN/PV. XEN/PV has no real APIC enumeration
which means the primary thread mask is not set up correctly. By
chance a XEN/PV boot ends up with smp_num_siblings == 2, which makes
the hotplug control stay at its default value "enabled". So the mask
is never evaluated.
The ongoing rework of the topology evaluation caused XEN/PV to end up
with smp_num_siblings == 1, which sets the SMT control to "not
supported" and the empty primary thread mask causes the hotplug core
to deny the bringup of the APS.
Make the decision logic more robust and take 'not supported' and 'not
implemented' into account for the decision whether a CPU should be
booted or not.
- Fake primary thread mask for XEN/PV
Pretend that all XEN/PV vCPUs are primary threads, which makes the
usage of the primary thread mask valid on XEN/PV. That is consistent
with because all of the topology information on XEN/PV is fake or
even non-existent.
- Encapsulate topology information in cpuinfo_x86
Move the randomly scattered topology data into a separate data
structure for readability and as a preparatory step for the topology
evaluation overhaul.
- Consolidate APIC ID data type to u32
It's fixed width hardware data and not randomly u16, int, unsigned
long or whatever developers decided to use.
- Cure the abuse of cpuinfo for persisting logical IDs.
Per CPU cpuinfo is used to persist the logical package and die IDs.
That's really not the right place simply because cpuinfo is subject
to be reinitialized when a CPU goes through an offline/online cycle.
Use separate per CPU data for the persisting to enable the further
topology management rework. It will be removed once the new topology
management is in place.
- Provide a debug interface for inspecting topology information
Useful in general and extremly helpful for validating the topology
management rework in terms of correctness or "bug" compatibility.

Pull x86 APIC updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Make the quirk for non-maskable MSI interrupts in the affinity setter
functional again.
It was broken by a MSI core code update, which restructured the code
in a way that the quirk flag was not longer set correctly.
Trying to restore the core logic caused a deeper inspection and it
turned out that the extra quirk flag is not required at all because
it's the inverse of the reservation mode bit, which only can be set
when the MSI interrupt is maskable.
So the trivial fix is to use the reservation mode check in the
affinity setter function and remove almost 40 lines of code related
to the no-mask quirk flag.
- Cure a Kconfig dependency issue which causes compile failures by
correcting the conditionals in the affected header files.
- Clean up coding style in the UV APIC driver.

The reason is the recent conversion of the TSC synchronization function
during CPU hotplug on the control CPU to a SMP function call. In case
that the synchronization with the upcoming CPU fails, the TSC has to be
marked unstable via clocksource_mark_unstable().
clocksource_mark_unstable() acquires 'watchdog_lock', but that lock is
taken with interrupts enabled in the watchdog timer callback to minimize
interrupt disabled time. That's obviously a possible deadlock scenario,
Before that change the synchronization function was invoked in thread
context so this could not happen.
As it is not crucical whether the unstable marking happens slightly
delayed, defer the call to a worker thread which avoids the lock context
problem.

David and a few others reported that on certain newer systems some legacy
interrupts fail to work correctly.
Debugging revealed that the BIOS of these systems leaves the legacy PIC in
uninitialized state which makes the PIC detection fail and the kernel
switches to a dummy implementation.
Unfortunately this fallback causes quite some code to fail as it depends on
checks for the number of legacy PIC interrupts or the availability of the
real PIC.
In theory there is no reason to use the PIC on any modern system when
IO/APIC is available, but the dependencies on the related checks cannot be
resolved trivially and on short notice. This needs lots of analysis and
rework.
The PIC detection has been added to avoid quirky checks and force selection
of the dummy implementation all over the place, especially in VM guest
scenarios. So it's not an option to revert the relevant commit as that
would break a lot of other scenarios.
One solution would be to try to initialize the PIC on detection fail and
retry the detection, but that puts the burden on everything which does not
have a PIC.
Fortunately the ACPI/MADT table header has a flag field, which advertises
in bit 0 that the system is PCAT compatible, which means it has a legacy
8259 PIC.
Evaluate that bit and if set avoid the detection routine and keep the real
PIC installed, which then gets initialized (for nothing) and makes the rest
of the code with all the dependencies work again.

commit ef8dd01538ea ("genirq/msi: Make interrupt allocation less
convoluted"), reworked the code so that the x86 specific quirk for affinity
setting of non-maskable PCI/MSI interrupts is not longer activated if
necessary.
This could be solved by restoring the original logic in the core MSI code,
but after a deeper analysis it turned out that the quirk flag is not
required at all.
The quirk is only required when the PCI/MSI device cannot mask the MSI
interrupts, which in turn also prevents reservation mode from being enabled
for the affected interrupt.
This allows ot remove the NOMASK quirk bit completely as msi_set_affinity()
can instead check whether reservation mode is enabled for the interrupt,
which gives exactly the same answer.
Even in the momentary non-existing case that the reservation mode would be
not set for a maskable MSI interrupt this would not cause any harm as it
just would cause msi_set_affinity() to go needlessly through the
functionaly equivalent slow path, which works perfectly fine with maskable
interrupts as well.
Rework msi_set_affinity() to query the reservation mode and remove all
NOMASK quirk logic from the core code.

In general users, don't have the necessary information to determine
whether late loading of a new microcode version is safe and does not
modify anything which the currently running kernel uses already, e.g.
removal of CPUID bits or behavioural changes of MSRs.
To address this issue, Intel has added a "minimum required version"
field to a previously reserved field in the microcode header. Microcode
updates should only be applied if the current microcode version is equal
to, or greater than this minimum required version.
Thomas made some suggestions on how meta-data in the microcode file could
provide Linux with information to decide if the new microcode is suitable
candidate for late loading. But even the "simpler" option requires a lot of
metadata and corresponding kernel code to parse it, so the final suggestion
was to add the 'minimum required version' field in the header.
When microcode changes visible features, microcode will set the minimum
required version to its own revision which prevents late loading.
Old microcode blobs have the minimum revision field always set to 0, which
indicates that there is no information and the kernel considers it
unsafe.
This is a pure OS software mechanism. The hardware/firmware ignores this
header field.
For early loading there is no restriction because OS visible features
are enumerated after the early load and therefore a change has no
effect.
The check is always enabled, but by default not enforced. It can be
enforced via Kconfig or kernel command line.
If enforced, the kernel refuses to late load microcode with a minimum
required version field which is zero or when the currently loaded
microcode revision is smaller than the minimum required revision.
If not enforced the load happens independent of the revision check to
stay compatible with the existing behaviour, but it influences the
decision whether the kernel is tainted or not. If the check signals that
the late load is safe, then the kernel is not tainted.
Early loading is not affected by this.

Applying microcode late can be fatal for the running kernel when the
update changes functionality which is in use already in a non-compatible
way, e.g. by removing a CPUID bit.
There is no way for admins which do not have access to the vendors deep
technical support to decide whether late loading of such a microcode is
safe or not.
Intel has added a new field to the microcode header which tells the
minimal microcode revision which is required to be active in the CPU in
order to be safe.
Provide infrastructure for handling this in the core code and a command
line switch which allows to enforce it.
If the update is considered safe the kernel is not tainted and the annoying
warning message not emitted. If it's enforced and the currently loaded
microcode revision is not safe for late loading then the load is aborted.

Offline CPUs need to be parked in a safe loop when microcode update is
in progress on the primary CPU. Currently, offline CPUs are parked in
mwait_play_dead(), and for Intel CPUs, its not a safe instruction,
because the MWAIT instruction can be patched in the new microcode update
that can cause instability.
- Add a new microcode state 'UCODE_OFFLINE' to report status on per-CPU
basis.
- Force NMI on the offline CPUs.
Wake up offline CPUs while the update is in progress and then return
them back to mwait_play_dead() after microcode update is complete.

When SMT siblings are soft-offlined and parked in one of the play_dead()
variants they still react on NMI, which is problematic on affected Intel
CPUs. The default play_dead() variant uses MWAIT on modern CPUs, which is
not guaranteed to be safe when updated concurrently.
Right now late loading is prevented when not all SMT siblings are online,
but as they still react on NMI, it is possible to bring them out of their
park position into a trivial rendezvous handler.
Provide a function which allows to do that. I does sanity checks whether
the target is in the cpus_booted_once_mask and whether the APIC driver
supports it.
Mark X2APIC and XAPIC as capable, but exclude 32bit and the UV and NUMACHIP
variants as that needs feedback from the relevant experts.

The wait for control loop in which the siblings are waiting for the
microcode update on the primary thread must be protected against
instrumentation as instrumentation can end up in #INT3, #DB or #PF,
which then returns with IRET. That IRET reenables NMI which is the
opposite of what the NMI rendezvous is trying to achieve.

stop_machine() does not prevent the spin-waiting sibling from handling
an NMI, which is obviously violating the whole concept of rendezvous.
Implement a static branch right in the beginning of the NMI handler
which is nopped out except when enabled by the late loading mechanism.
The late loader enables the static branch before stop_machine() is
invoked. Each CPU has an nmi_enable in its control structure which
indicates whether the CPU should go into the update routine.
This is required to bridge the gap between enabling the branch and
actually being at the point where it is required to enter the loader
wait loop.
Each CPU which arrives in the stopper thread function sets that flag and
issues a self NMI right after that. If the NMI function sees the flag
clear, it returns. If it's set it clears the flag and enters the
rendezvous.
This is safe against a real NMI which hits in between setting the flag
and sending the NMI to itself. The real NMI will be swallowed by the
microcode update and the self NMI will then let stuff continue.
Otherwise this would end up with a spurious NMI.

The current all in one code is unreadable and really not suited for
adding future features like uniform loading with package or system
scope.
Provide a set of new control functions which split the handling of the
primary and secondary CPUs. These will replace the current rendezvous
all in one function in the next step. This is intentionally a separate
change because diff makes an complete unreadable mess otherwise.
So the flow separates the primary and the secondary CPUs into their own
functions which use the control field in the per CPU ucode_ctrl struct.
primary() secondary()
wait_for_all() wait_for_all()

Add a per CPU control field to ucode_ctrl and define constants for it
which are going to be used to control the loading state machine.
In theory this could be a global control field, but a global control does
not cover the following case:
15 primary CPUs load microcode successfully
1 primary CPU fails and returns with an error code
With global control the sibling of the failed CPU would either try again or
the whole operation would be aborted with the consequence that the 15
siblings do not invoke the apply path and end up with inconsistent software
state. The result in dmesg would be inconsistent too.
There are two additional fields added and initialized:
ctrl_cpu and secondaries. ctrl_cpu is the CPU number of the primary thread
for now, but with the upcoming uniform loading at package or system scope
this will be one CPU per package or just one CPU. Secondaries hands the
control CPU a CPU mask which will be required to release the secondary CPUs
out of the wait loop.
Preparatory change for implementing a properly split control flow for
primary and secondary CPUs.

The microcode rendezvous is purely acting on global state, which does
not allow to analyze fails in a coherent way.
Introduce per CPU state where the results are written into, which allows to
analyze the return codes of the individual CPUs.
Initialize the state when walking the cpu_present_mask in the online
check to avoid another for_each_cpu() loop.
Enhance the result print out with that.
The structure is intentionally named ucode_ctrl as it will gain control
fields in subsequent changes.

The code is too complicated for no reason:
- The return value is pointless as this is a strict boolean.
- It's way simpler to count down from num_online_cpus() and check for
zero.
- The timeout argument is pointless as this is always one second.
- Touching the NMI watchdog every 100ns does not make any sense, neither
does checking every 100ns. This is really not a hotpath operation.
Preload the atomic counter with the number of online CPUs and simplify the
whole timeout logic. Delay for one microsecond and touch the NMI watchdog
once per millisecond.

reload_store() is way too complicated. Split the inner workings out and
make the following enhancements:
- Taint the kernel only when the microcode was actually updated. If. e.g.
the rendezvous fails, then nothing happened and there is no reason for
tainting.
- Return useful error codes

On CPUs where microcode loading is not NMI-safe the SMT siblings which
are parked in one of the play_dead() variants still react to NMIs.
So if an NMI hits while the primary thread updates the microcode the
resulting behaviour is undefined. The default play_dead() implementation on
modern CPUs is using MWAIT which is not guaranteed to be safe against
a microcode update which affects MWAIT.
Take the cpus_booted_once_mask into account to detect this case and
refuse to load late if the vendor specific driver does not advertise
that late loading is NMI safe.
AMD stated that this is safe, so mark the AMD driver accordingly.
This requirement will be partially lifted in later changes.

Now that the microcode cache is initialized before the APs are brought
up, there is no point in scanning builtin/initrd microcode during AP
loading.
Convert the AP loader to utilize the cache, which in turn makes the CPU
hotplug callback which applies the microcode after initrd/builtin is
gone, obsolete as the early loading during late hotplug operations
including the resume path depends now only on the cache.
