Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini: "ARM: - Generalized infrastructure for 'writable' ID registers, effectively allowing userspace to opt-out of certain vCPU features for its guest - Optimization for vSGI injection, opportunistically compressing MPIDR to vCPU mapping into a table - Improvements to KVM's PMU emulation, allowing userspace to select the number of PMCs available to a VM - Guest support for memory operation instructions (FEAT_MOPS) - Cleanups to handling feature flags in KVM_ARM_VCPU_INIT, squashing bugs and getting rid of useless code - Changes to the way the SMCCC filter is constructed, avoiding wasted memory allocations when not in use - Load the stage-2 MMU context at vcpu_load() for VHE systems, reducing the overhead of errata mitigations - Miscellaneous kernel and selftest fixes LoongArch: - New architecture for kvm. The hardware uses the same model as x86, s390 and RISC-V, where guest/host mode is orthogonal to supervisor/user mode. The virtualization extensions are very similar to MIPS, therefore the code also has some similarities but it's been cleaned up to avoid some of the historical bogosities that are found in arch/mips. The kernel emulates MMU, timer and CSR accesses, while interrupt controllers are only emulated in userspace, at least for now. RISC-V: - Support for the Smstateen and Zicond extensions - Support for virtualizing senvcfg - Support for virtualized SBI debug console (DBCN) S390: - Nested page table management can be monitored through tracepoints and statistics x86: - Fix incorrect handling of VMX posted interrupt descriptor in KVM_SET_LAPIC, which could result in a dropped timer IRQ - Avoid WARN on systems with Intel IPI virtualization - Add CONFIG_KVM_MAX_NR_VCPUS, to allow supporting up to 4096 vCPUs without forcing more common use cases to eat the extra memory overhead. - Add virtualization support for AMD SRSO mitigation (IBPB_BRTYPE and SBPB, aka Selective Branch Predictor Barrier). - Fix a bug where restoring a vCPU snapshot that was taken within 1 second of creating the original vCPU would cause KVM to try to synchronize the vCPU's TSC and thus clobber the correct TSC being set by userspace. - Compute guest wall clock using a single TSC read to avoid generating an inaccurate time, e.g. if the vCPU is preempted between multiple TSC reads. - "Virtualize" HWCR.TscFreqSel to make Linux guests happy, which complain about a "Firmware Bug" if the bit isn't set for select F/M/S combos. Likewise "virtualize" (ignore) MSR_AMD64_TW_CFG to appease Windows Server 2022. - Don't apply side effects to Hyper-V's synthetic timer on writes from userspace to fix an issue where the auto-enable behavior can trigger spurious interrupts, i.e. do auto-enabling only for guest writes. - Remove an unnecessary kick of all vCPUs when synchronizing the dirty log without PML enabled. - Advertise "support" for non-serializing FS/GS base MSR writes as appropriate. - Harden the fast page fault path to guard against encountering an invalid root when walking SPTEs. - Omit "struct kvm_vcpu_xen" entirely when CONFIG_KVM_XEN=n. - Use the fast path directly from the timer callback when delivering Xen timer events, instead of waiting for the next iteration of the run loop. This was not done so far because previously proposed code had races, but now care is taken to stop the hrtimer at critical points such as restarting the timer or saving the timer information for userspace. - Follow the lead of upstream Xen and ignore the VCPU_SSHOTTMR_future flag. - Optimize injection of PMU interrupts that are simultaneous with NMIs. - Usual handful of fixes for typos and other warts. x86 - MTRR/PAT fixes and optimizations: - Clean up code that deals with honoring guest MTRRs when the VM has non-coherent DMA and host MTRRs are ignored, i.e. EPT is enabled. - Zap EPT entries when non-coherent DMA assignment stops/start to prevent using stale entries with the wrong memtype. - Don't ignore guest PAT for CR0.CD=1 && KVM_X86_QUIRK_CD_NW_CLEARED=y This was done as a workaround for virtual machine BIOSes that did not bother to clear CR0.CD (because ancient KVM/QEMU did not bother to set it, in turn), and there's zero reason to extend the quirk to also ignore guest PAT. x86 - SEV fixes: - Report KVM_EXIT_SHUTDOWN instead of EINVAL if KVM intercepts SHUTDOWN while running an SEV-ES guest. - Clean up the recognition of emulation failures on SEV guests, when KVM would like to "skip" the instruction but it had already been partially emulated. This makes it possible to drop a hack that second guessed the (insufficient) information provided by the emulator, and just do the right thing. Documentation: - Various updates and fixes, mostly for x86 - MTRR and PAT fixes and optimizations" * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm: (164 commits) KVM: selftests: Avoid using forced target for generating arm64 headers tools headers arm64: Fix references to top srcdir in Makefile KVM: arm64: Add tracepoint for MMIO accesses where ISV==0 KVM: arm64: selftest: Perform ISB before reading PAR_EL1 KVM: arm64: selftest: Add the missing .guest_prepare() KVM: arm64: Always invalidate TLB for stage-2 permission faults KVM: x86: Service NMI requests after PMI requests in VM-Enter path KVM: arm64: Handle AArch32 SPSR_{irq,abt,und,fiq} as RAZ/WI KVM: arm64: Do not let a L1 hypervisor access the *32_EL2 sysregs KVM: arm64: Refine _EL2 system register list that require trap reinjection arm64: Add missing _EL2 encodings arm64: Add missing _EL12 encodings KVM: selftests: aarch64: vPMU test for validating user accesses KVM: selftests: aarch64: vPMU register test for unimplemented counters KVM: selftests: aarch64: vPMU register test for implemented counters KVM: selftests: aarch64: Introduce vpmu_counter_access test tools: Import arm_pmuv3.h KVM: arm64: PMU: Allow userspace to limit PMCR_EL0.N for the guest KVM: arm64: Sanitize PM{C,I}NTEN{SET,CLR}, PMOVS{SET,CLR} before first run KVM: arm64: Add {get,set}_user for PM{C,I}NTEN{SET,CLR}, PMOVS{SET,CLR} ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux 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.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "Core & protocols: - Support usec resolution of TCP timestamps, enabled selectively by a route attribute. - Defer regular TCP ACK while processing socket backlog, try to send a cumulative ACK at the end. Increase single TCP flow performance on a 200Gbit NIC by 20% (100Gbit -> 120Gbit). - The Fair Queuing (FQ) packet scheduler: - add built-in 3 band prio / WRR scheduling - support bypass if the qdisc is mostly idle (5% speed up for TCP RR) - improve inactive flow reporting - optimize the layout of structures for better cache locality - Support TCP Authentication Option (RFC 5925, TCP-AO), a more modern replacement for the old MD5 option. - Add more retransmission timeout (RTO) related statistics to TCP_INFO. - Support sending fragmented skbs over vsock sockets. - Make sure we send SIGPIPE for vsock sockets if socket was shutdown(). - Add sysctl for ignoring lower limit on lifetime in Router Advertisement PIO, based on an in-progress IETF draft. - Add sysctl to control activation of TCP ping-pong mode. - Add sysctl to make connection timeout in MPTCP configurable. - Support rcvlowat and notsent_lowat on MPTCP sockets, to help apps limit the number of wakeups. - Support netlink GET for MDB (multicast forwarding), allowing user space to request a single MDB entry instead of dumping the entire table. - Support selective FDB flushing in the VXLAN tunnel driver. - Allow limiting learned FDB entries in bridges, prevent OOM attacks. - Allow controlling via configfs netconsole targets which were created via the kernel cmdline at boot, rather than via configfs at runtime. - Support multiple PTP timestamp event queue readers with different filters. - MCTP over I3C. BPF: - Add new veth-like netdevice where BPF program defines the logic of the xmit routine. It can operate in L3 and L2 mode. - Support exceptions - allow asserting conditions which should never be true but are hard for the verifier to infer. With some extra flexibility around handling of the exit / failure: https://lwn.net/Articles/938435/ - Add support for local per-cpu kptr, allow allocating and storing per-cpu objects in maps. Access to those objects operates on the value for the current CPU. This allows to deprecate local one-off implementations of per-CPU storage like BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERCPU_CGROUP_STORAGE maps. - Extend cgroup BPF sockaddr hooks for UNIX sockets. The use case is for systemd to re-implement the LogNamespace feature which allows running multiple instances of systemd-journald to process the logs of different services. - Enable open-coded task_vma iteration, after maple tree conversion made it hard to directly walk VMAs in tracing programs. - Add open-coded task, css_task and css iterator support. One of the use cases is customizable OOM victim selection via BPF. - Allow source address selection with bpf_*_fib_lookup(). - Add ability to pin BPF timer to the current CPU. - Prevent creation of infinite loops by combining tail calls and fentry/fexit programs. - Add missed stats for kprobes to retrieve the number of missed kprobe executions and subsequent executions of BPF programs. - Inherit system settings for CPU security mitigations. - Add BPF v4 CPU instruction support for arm32 and s390x. Changes to common code: - overflow: add DEFINE_FLEX() for on-stack definition of structs with flexible array members. - Process doc update with more guidance for reviewers. Driver API: - Simplify locking in WiFi (cfg80211 and mac80211 layers), use wiphy mutex in most places and remove a lot of smaller locks. - Create a common DPLL configuration API. Allow configuring and querying state of PLL circuits used for clock syntonization, in network time distribution. - Unify fragmented and full page allocation APIs in page pool code. Let drivers be ignorant of PAGE_SIZE. - Rework PHY state machine to avoid races with calls to phy_stop(). - Notify DSA drivers of MAC address changes on user ports, improve correctness of offloads which depend on matching port MAC addresses. - Allow antenna control on injected WiFi frames. - Reduce the number of variants of napi_schedule(). - Simplify error handling when composing devlink health messages. Misc: - A lot of KCSAN data race "fixes", from Eric. - A lot of __counted_by() annotations, from Kees. - A lot of strncpy -> strscpy and printf format fixes. - Replace master/slave terminology with conduit/user in DSA drivers. - Handful of KUnit tests for netdev and WiFi core. Removed: - AppleTalk COPS. - AppleTalk ipddp. - TI AR7 CPMAC Ethernet driver.

KVM x86 MMU changes for 6.7: - Clean up code that deals with honoring guest MTRRs when the VM has non-coherent DMA and host MTRRs are ignored, i.e. EPT is enabled. - Zap EPT entries when non-coherent DMA assignment stops/start to prevent using stale entries with the wrong memtype. - Don't ignore guest PAT for CR0.CD=1 && KVM_X86_QUIRK_CD_NW_CLEARED=y, as there's zero reason to ignore guest PAT if the effective MTRR memtype is WB. This will also allow for future optimizations of handling guest MTRR updates for VMs with non-coherent DMA and the quirk enabled. - Harden the fast page fault path to guard against encountering an invalid root when walking SPTEs.

KVM x86 misc changes for 6.7: - Add CONFIG_KVM_MAX_NR_VCPUS to allow supporting up to 4096 vCPUs without forcing more common use cases to eat the extra memory overhead. - Add IBPB and SBPB virtualization support. - Fix a bug where restoring a vCPU snapshot that was taken within 1 second of creating the original vCPU would cause KVM to try to synchronize the vCPU's TSC and thus clobber the correct TSC being set by userspace. - Compute guest wall clock using a single TSC read to avoid generating an inaccurate time, e.g. if the vCPU is preempted between multiple TSC reads. - "Virtualize" HWCR.TscFreqSel to make Linux guests happy, which complain about a "Firmware Bug" if the bit isn't set for select F/M/S combos. - Don't apply side effects to Hyper-V's synthetic timer on writes from userspace to fix an issue where the auto-enable behavior can trigger spurious interrupts, i.e. do auto-enabling only for guest writes. - Remove an unnecessary kick of all vCPUs when synchronizing the dirty log without PML enabled. - Advertise "support" for non-serializing FS/GS base MSR writes as appropriate. - Use octal notation for file permissions through KVM x86. - Fix a handful of typo fixes and warts.

KVM x86 APIC changes for 6.7: - Purge VMX's posted interrupt descriptor *before* loading APIC state when handling KVM_SET_LAPIC. Purging the PID after loading APIC state results in lost APIC timer IRQs as the APIC timer can be armed as part of loading APIC state, i.e. can immediately pend an IRQ if the expiry is in the past. - Clear the ICR.BUSY bit when handling trap-like x2APIC writes. This avoids a WARN, due to KVM expecting the BUSY bit to be cleared when sending IPIs.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip 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.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip 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. * tag 'x86-apic-2023-10-29-v2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86/apic/msi: Fix misconfigured non-maskable MSI quirk x86/msi: Fix compile error caused by CONFIG_GENERIC_MSI_IRQ=y && !CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC x86/platform/uv/apic: Clean up inconsistent indenting

2023-10-28kbuild: unify vdso_install rulesMasahiro Yamada2-30/+4
Currently, there is no standard implementation for vdso_install, leading to various issues: 1. Code duplication Many architectures duplicate similar code just for copying files to the install destination. Some architectures (arm, sparc, x86) create build-id symlinks, introducing more code duplication. 2. Unintended updates of in-tree build artifacts The vdso_install rule depends on the vdso files to install. It may update in-tree build artifacts. This can be problematic, as explained in commit 19514fc665ff ("arm, kbuild: make "make install" not depend on vmlinux"). 3. Broken code in some architectures Makefile code is often copied from one architecture to another without proper adaptation. 'make vdso_install' for parisc does not work. 'make vdso_install' for s390 installs vdso64, but not vdso32. To address these problems, this commit introduces a generic vdso_install rule. Architectures that support vdso_install need to define vdso-install-y in arch/*/Makefile. vdso-install-y lists the files to install. For example, arch/x86/Makefile looks like this: vdso-install-$(CONFIG_X86_64) += arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso64.so.dbg vdso-install-$(CONFIG_X86_X32_ABI) += arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdsox32.so.dbg vdso-install-$(CONFIG_X86_32) += arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32.so.dbg vdso-install-$(CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION) += arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32.so.dbg These files will be installed to $(MODLIB)/vdso/ with the .dbg suffix, if exists, stripped away. vdso-install-y can optionally take the second field after the colon separator. This is needed because some architectures install a vdso file as a different base name. The following is a snippet from arch/arm64/Makefile. vdso-install-$(CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO) += arch/arm64/kernel/vdso32/vdso.so.dbg:vdso32.so This will rename vdso.so.dbg to vdso32.so during installation. If such architectures change their implementation so that the base names match, this workaround will go away.

2023-10-27KVM: x86: Service NMI requests after PMI requests in VM-Enter pathMingwei Zhang1-4/+4
Service NMI and SMI requests after PMI requests in vcpu_enter_guest() so that KVM does not need to cancel and redo the VM-Enter if the guest configures its PMIs to be delivered as NMIs (likely) or SMIs (unlikely). Because APIC emulation "injects" NMIs via KVM_REQ_NMI, handling PMI requests after NMI requests (the likely case) means KVM won't detect the pending NMI request until the final check for outstanding requests. Detecting requests at the final stage is costly as KVM has already loaded guest state, potentially queued events for injection, disabled IRQs, dropped SRCU, etc., most of which needs to be unwound. Note that changing the order of request processing doesn't change the end result, as KVM's final check for outstanding requests prevents entering the guest until all requests are serviced. I.e. KVM will ultimately coalesce events (or not) regardless of the ordering. Using SPEC2017 benchmark programs running along with Intel vtune in a VM demonstrates that the following code change reduces 800~1500 canceled VM-Enters per second.

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.

2023-10-27x86/i8259: Skip probing when ACPI/MADT advertises PCAT compatibilityThomas Gleixner3-8/+35
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.

2023-10-26x86/apic/msi: Fix misconfigured non-maskable MSI quirkKoichiro Den1-5/+3
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.

2023-10-24x86/microcode/intel: Add a minimum required revision for late loadingAshok Raj2-5/+35
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.
