Explicitly zero/empty-initialize the unions used for PMU related CPUID
entries, instead of manually zeroing all fields (hopefully), or in the
case of 0x80000022, relying on the compiler to clobber the uninitialized
bitfields.

Wrap the TDP MMU page counter in CONFIG_KVM_PROVE_MMU so that the sanity
check is omitted from production builds, and more importantly to remove
the atomic accesses to account pages. A one-off memory leak in production
is relatively uninteresting, and a WARN_ON won't help mitigate a systemic
issue; it's as much about helping triage memory leaks as it is about
detecting them in the first place, and doesn't magically stop the leaks.
I.e. production environments will be quite sad if a severe KVM bug escapes,
regardless of whether or not KVM WARNs.

Acquire a lock on kvm->srcu when userspace is getting MP state to handle a
rather extreme edge case where "accepting" APIC events, i.e. processing
pending INIT or SIPI, can trigger accesses to guest memory. If the vCPU
is in L2 with INIT *and* a TRIPLE_FAULT request pending, then getting MP
state will trigger a nested VM-Exit by way of ->check_nested_events(), and
emuating the nested VM-Exit can access guest memory.
The splat was originally hit by syzkaller on a Google-internal kernel, and
reproduced on an upstream kernel by hacking the triple_fault_event_test
selftest to stuff a pending INIT, store an MSR on VM-Exit (to generate a
memory access on VMX), and do vcpu_mp_state_get() to trigger the scenario.

Don't re-walk the page tables if an SEA occurred during the faulting
page table walk to avoid taking a fatal exception in the hyp.
Additionally, check that FAR_EL2 is valid for SEAs not taken on PTW
as the architecture doesn't guarantee it contains the fault VA.
Finally, fix up the rest of the abort path by checking for SEAs early
and bugging the VM if we get further along with an UNKNOWN fault IPA.

KVM's logic for deciding when HPFAR_EL2 is UNKNOWN doesn't align with
the architecture. Most notably, KVM assumes HPFAR_EL2 contains the
faulting IPA even in the case of an SEA.
Align the logic with the architecture rather than attempting to
paraphrase it. Additionally, take the opportunity to improve the
language around ARM erratum #834220 such that it actually describes the
bug.

Pull x86 TDX updates from Dave Hansen:
"Avoid direct HLT instruction execution in TDX guests.
TDX guests aren't expected to use the HLT instruction directly. It
causes a virtualization exception (#VE). While the #VE _can_ be
handled, the current handling is slow and buggy and the easiest thing
is just to avoid HLT in the first place. Plus, the kernel already has
paravirt infrastructure that makes it relatively painless.
Make TDX guests require paravirt and add some TDX-specific paravirt
handlers which avoid HLT in the normal halt routines. Also add a
warning in case another HLT sneaks in.
There was a report that this leads to a "major performance
improvement" on specjbb2015, probably because of the extra #VE
overhead or missed wakeups from the buggy HLT handling"

The x86 has already been converted to use struct ptdesc, so convert it to
use tlb_remove_ptdesc() instead of tlb_remove_table().

To support fast gup, the commit 69be3fb111e7 ("riscv: enable
MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE for SMP && MMU") did the following:
1) use tlb_remove_page_ptdesc() for those platforms which use IPI to
perform TLB shootdown
2) use tlb_remove_ptdesc() for those platforms which use SBI to perform
TLB shootdown
The tlb_remove_page_ptdesc() is the wrapper of the tlb_remove_page(). By
design, the tlb_remove_page() should be used to remove a normal page from
a page table entry, and should not be used for page table pages.
The tlb_remove_ptdesc() is the wrapper of the tlb_remove_table(), which is
designed specifically for freeing page table pages. If the
CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_TABLE_FREE is enabled, the tlb_remove_table() will use
semi RCU to free page table pages, that is:
- batch table freeing: asynchronous free by RCU
- single table freeing: IPI + synchronous free
If the CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_TABLE_FREE is disabled, the tlb_remove_table()
will fall back to pagetable_dtor() + tlb_remove_page().
For case 1), since we need to perform TLB shootdown before freeing the
page table page, the local_irq_save() in fast gup can block the freeing
and protect the fast gup page walker. Therefore we can ensure safety by
just using tlb_remove_page_ptdesc(). In addition, we can also the
tlb_remove_ptdesc()/tlb_remove_table() to achieve it, and it doesn't
matter whether CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE is selected. And in
theory, the performance of freeing pages asynchronously via RCU will not
be lower than synchronous free.
For case 2), since local_irq_save() only disable S-privilege IPI irq but
not M-privilege's, which is used by the SBI implementation to perform TLB
shootdown, so we must select CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE and use
tlb_remove_ptdesc() to ensure safety. The riscv selects this config for
SMP && MMU, the CONFIG_RISCV_SBI is dependent on MMU. Therefore, only the
UP system may have the situation where CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE is
disabled but CONFIG_RISCV_SBI is enabled. But there is no freeing vs fast
gup race in the UP system.
So, in summary, we can use tlb_remove_ptdesc() to support fast gup in all
cases, and this interface is specifically designed for page table pages.
So let's use it unconditionally.

Now, the nine architectures of csky, hexagon, loongarch, m68k, mips,
nios2, openrisc, sh and um do not select CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE,
and just call pagetable_dtor() + tlb_remove_page_ptdesc() (the wrapper of
tlb_remove_page()). This is the same as the implementation of
tlb_remove_{ptdesc|table}() under !CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_TABLE_FREE, so
convert these architectures to use tlb_remove_ptdesc().
The ultimate goal is to make the architecture only use tlb_remove_ptdesc()
or tlb_remove_table() for page table pages.

As reported by lkp, there is a section mismatch of mm_cmdline_setup() and
memblock. The reason is we don't specify the section of
mm_cmdline_setup() and gcc put it into .text.unlikely.
As mm_cmdline_setup() is only used in mmu_init(), which is in .init.text
section, put mm_cmdline_setup() into it too.

Upon a wakeup from S4, the restore kernel starts and initializes the
FRED MSRs as needed from its perspective. It then loads a hibernation
image, including the image kernel, and attempts to load image pages
directly into their original page frames used before hibernation unless
those frames are currently in use. Once all pages are moved to their
original locations, it jumps to a "trampoline" page in the image kernel.
At this point, the image kernel takes control, but the FRED MSRs still
contain values set by the restore kernel, which may differ from those
set by the image kernel before hibernation. Therefore, the image kernel
must ensure the FRED MSRs have the same values as before hibernation.
Since these values depend only on the location of the kernel text and
data, they can be recomputed from scratch.

do_alignment_t32_to_handler() only fixes up alignment faults for
specific instructions; it returns NULL otherwise (e.g. LDREX). When
that's the case, signal to the caller that it needs to proceed with the
regular alignment fault handling (i.e. SIGBUS). Without this patch, the

to not increase max_pfn and trigger dma_addressing_limited() bounce buffers
As Bert Karwatzki reported, the following recent commit causes a
performance regression on AMD iGPU and dGPU systems:
7ffb791423c7 ("x86/kaslr: Reduce KASLR entropy on most x86 systems")
It exposed a bug with nokaslr and zone device interaction.
The root cause of the bug is that, the GPU driver registers a zone
device private memory region. When KASLR is disabled or the above commit
is applied, the direct_map_physmem_end is set to much higher than 10 TiB
typically to the 64TiB address. When zone device private memory is added
to the system via add_pages(), it bumps up the max_pfn to the same
value. This causes dma_addressing_limited() to return true, since the
device cannot address memory all the way up to max_pfn.
This caused a regression for games played on the iGPU, as it resulted in
the DMA32 zone being used for GPU allocations.
Fix this by not bumping up max_pfn on x86 systems, when pgmap is passed
into add_pages(). The presence of pgmap is used to determine if device
private memory is being added via add_pages().
More details:
devm_request_mem_region() and request_free_mem_region() request for
device private memory. iomem_resource is passed as the base resource
with start and end parameters. iomem_resource's end depends on several
factors, including the platform and virtualization. On x86 for example
on bare metal, this value is set to boot_cpu_data.x86_phys_bits.
boot_cpu_data.x86_phys_bits can change depending on support for MKTME.
By default it is set to the same as log2(direct_map_physmem_end) which
is 46 to 52 bits depending on the number of levels in the page table.
The allocation routines used iomem_resource's end and
direct_map_physmem_end to figure out where to allocate the region.
[ arch/powerpc is also impacted by this problem, but this patch does not fix
the issue for PowerPC. ]
Testing:
1. Tested on a virtual machine with test_hmm for zone device inseration
2. A previous version of this patch was tested by Bert, please see:

If 'regs' points to a local stack variable, prepare_frametrace() stores
all registers to the stack. This confuses objtool as it expects them to
be restored from the stack later.
The stores don't affect stack tracing, so use unwind hints to hide them
from objtool.
Fixes the following warnings:
arch/loongarch/kernel/traps.o: warning: objtool: show_stack+0xe0: stack state mismatch: reg1[22]=-1+0 reg2[22]=-2-160

When a crashkernel is launched on RISC-V, the entry to purgatory is
done by trapping via the stvec CSR. From riscv_kexec_norelocate():
| ...
| /*
| * Switch to physical addressing
| * This will also trigger a jump to CSR_STVEC
| * which in this case is the address of the new
| * kernel.
| */
| csrw CSR_STVEC, a2
| csrw CSR_SATP, zero
stvec requires that the address is 4B aligned, which was not the case,
e.g.:
| Loaded purgatory at 0xffffc000
| kexec_file: kexec_file_load: type:1, start:0xffffd232 head:0x4 flags:0x6
The address 0xffffd232 not 4B aligned.
Correct by adding proper function alignment.
With this change, crashkernels loaded with kexec-file will be able to
properly enter the purgatory.

Commit 58ff537109ac ("riscv: Omit optimized string routines when
using KASAN") introduced calls to EXPORT_SYMBOL() in assembly string
routines, which result in R_RISCV_64 relocations against
.export_symbol section. As these rountines are reused by RISC-V
purgatory and our relocator doesn't recognize these relocations, this
fails kexec-file-load with dmesg like
[ 11.344251] kexec_image: Unknown rela relocation: 2
[ 11.345972] kexec_image: Error loading purgatory ret=-8
Let's support R_RISCV_64 relocation to fix kexec on 64-bit RISC-V.
32-bit variant isn't covered since KEXEC_FILE and KEXEC_PURGATORY isn't
available.

Conor Dooley <conor@kernel.org> says:
From: Conor Dooley <conor.dooley@microchip.com>
Yo,
This series is partly leveraging Clement's work adding a validate
callback in the extension detection code so that things like checking
for whether a vector crypto extension is usable can be done like:
has_extension(<vector crypto>)
rather than
has_vector() && has_extension(<vector crypto>)
which Eric pointed out was a poor design some months ago.
The rest of this is adding some requirements to the bindings that
prevent combinations of extensions disallowed by the ISA.
There's a bunch of over-long lines in here, but I thought that the
over-long lines were clearer than breaking them up.
Cheers,
Conor.

Ryan sent a fix [1] for arm64 that applies to riscv too: in some hugetlb
functions, we must not use the pte value to get the size of a mapping
because the pte may not be present.
So use the already present size parameter for huge_pte_clear() and the
newly introduced size parameter for huge_ptep_get_and_clear(). And make
sure to gather A/D bits only on present ptes.

It turns out the code to generate the x86 cpufeaturemasks.h header was
way too aggressive, and would re-generate it whenever the timestamp on
the kernel config file changed.
Now, the regular 'make *config' tools are fairly careful to not rewrite
the kernel config file unless the contents change, but other usecases
aren't that careful.
Michael Kelley reports that 'make-kpkg' ends up doing "make syncconfig"
multiple times in prepping to build, and will modify the config file in
the process (and then modify it back, but by then the timestamps have
changed).
Jakub Kicinski reports that the netdev CI does something similar in how
it generates the config file in multiple steps.
In both cases, the config file timestamp updates then cause the
cpufeaturemasks.h file to be regenerated, and that in turn then causes
lots of unnecessary rebuilds due to all the normal dependencies.
Fix it by using our 'filechk' infrastructure in the Makefile to generate
the header file. That will only write a new version of the file if the
contents of the file have actually changed.

The fixed commit sets up dev.dma_range_map but missed that this is
supposed to be an array of struct bus_dma_region with a sentinel element
with the size field set to 0 at the end. This would lead to overruns in
e.g. dma_range_map_min(). It could also result in wrong translations
instead of DMA_MAPPING_ERROR in translate_phys_to_dma() if the paddr
were to not fit in the aperture. Fix this by using the
dma_direct_set_offset() helper which creates a sentinel for us.

Add support for HOTPLUG_SMT. With this the s390 specific "nosmt" kernel
command line parameter handling is replaced with common code handling.
This means that just specifying "nosmt" still enables smt from an
architectural point of view, however only the primary (base) cpu can be set
online. Enabling smt during runtime via /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control
allows to set secondary cpus online. This way "nosmt" works like on other
architectures where enabling and disabling smt during runtime is possible.
If "nosmt=force" is specified smt is also still enabled from an
architectural point of view, but there is no way to set secondary cpus
online during runtime, also like on other architectures.
In order to disable smt from architectural point of view, which was
previously achieved with the s390 specific "nosmt" command line option,
"smt=1" can be used.

The kernel build may fail if the linker does not support -no-pie option,

Error log:
s390-linux-ld: unable to disambiguate: -no-pie (did you mean --no-pie ?)
Although the GNU linker defaults to -no-pie, the ability to explicitly
specify this option was introduced in binutils 2.36.
Hence, fix it by adding -no-pie to LDFLAGS_vmlinux only when it is

Use bitop functions to implement cpu flag helper functions. This way
it is guaranteed that bits cannot get lost if modified in different
contexts on a cpu.
E.g. if process context is interrupted in the middle of a
read-modify-write sequence while modifying cpu flags, and within
interrupt context cpu flags are also modified, bits can get lost.
There is currently no code which is doing this, however upcoming code
could potentially run into this problem.
