The biggest change here is eliminating the awful idea that KVM had, of
essentially guessing which pfns are refcounted pages. The reason to
do so was that KVM needs to map both non-refcounted pages (for example
BARs of VFIO devices) and VM_PFNMAP/VM_MIXMEDMAP VMAs that contain
refcounted pages. However, the result was security issues in the past,
and more recently the inability to map VM_IO and VM_PFNMAP memory
that _is_ backed by struct page but is not refcounted. In particular
this broke virtio-gpu blob resources (which directly map host graphics
buffers into the guest as "vram" for the virtio-gpu device) with the
amdgpu driver, because amdgpu allocates non-compound higher order pages
and the tail pages could not be mapped into KVM.
This requires adjusting all uses of struct page in the per-architecture
code, to always work on the pfn whenever possible. The large series that
did this, from David Stevens and Sean Christopherson, also cleaned up
substantially the set of functions that provided arch code with the
pfn for a host virtual addresses. The previous maze of twisty little
passages, all different, is replaced by five functions (__gfn_to_page,
__kvm_faultin_pfn, the non-__ versions of these two, and kvm_prefetch_pages)
saving almost 200 lines of code.
ARM:
* Support for stage-1 permission indirection (FEAT_S1PIE) and
permission overlays (FEAT_S1POE), including nested virt + the
emulated page table walker
* Introduce PSCI SYSTEM_OFF2 support to KVM + client driver. This call
was introduced in PSCIv1.3 as a mechanism to request hibernation,
similar to the S4 state in ACPI
* Explicitly trap + hide FEAT_MPAM (QoS controls) from KVM guests. As
part of it, introduce trivial initialization of the host's MPAM
context so KVM can use the corresponding traps
* PMU support under nested virtualization, honoring the guest
hypervisor's trap configuration and event filtering when running a
nested guest
* Fixes to vgic ITS serialization where stale device/interrupt table
entries are not zeroed when the mapping is invalidated by the VM
* Avoid emulated MMIO completion if userspace has requested synchronous
external abort injection
* Various fixes and cleanups affecting pKVM, vCPU initialization, and
selftests
LoongArch:
* Add iocsr and mmio bus simulation in kernel.
* Add in-kernel interrupt controller emulation.
* Add support for virtualization extensions to the eiointc irqchip.
PPC:
* Drop lingering and utterly obsolete references to PPC970 KVM, which was
removed 10 years ago.
* Fix incorrect documentation references to non-existing ioctls
RISC-V:
* Accelerate KVM RISC-V when running as a guest
* Perf support to collect KVM guest statistics from host side
s390:
* New selftests: more ucontrol selftests and CPU model sanity checks
* Support for the gen17 CPU model
* List registers supported by KVM_GET/SET_ONE_REG in the documentation
x86:
* Cleanup KVM's handling of Accessed and Dirty bits to dedup code, improve
documentation, harden against unexpected changes. Even if the hardware
A/D tracking is disabled, it is possible to use the hardware-defined A/D
bits to track if a PFN is Accessed and/or Dirty, and that removes a lot
of special cases.
* Elide TLB flushes when aging secondary PTEs, as has been done in x86's
primary MMU for over 10 years.
* Recover huge pages in-place in the TDP MMU when dirty page logging is
toggled off, instead of zapping them and waiting until the page is
re-accessed to create a huge mapping. This reduces vCPU jitter.
* Batch TLB flushes when dirty page logging is toggled off. This reduces
the time it takes to disable dirty logging by ~3x.
* Remove the shrinker that was (poorly) attempting to reclaim shadow page
tables in low-memory situations.
* Clean up and optimize KVM's handling of writes to MSR_IA32_APICBASE.
* Advertise CPUIDs for new instructions in Clearwater Forest
* Quirk KVM's misguided behavior of initialized certain feature MSRs to
their maximum supported feature set, which can result in KVM creating
invalid vCPU state. E.g. initializing PERF_CAPABILITIES to a non-zero
value results in the vCPU having invalid state if userspace hides PDCM
from the guest, which in turn can lead to save/restore failures.
* Fix KVM's handling of non-canonical checks for vCPUs that support LA57
to better follow the "architecture", in quotes because the actual
behavior is poorly documented. E.g. most MSR writes and descriptor
table loads ignore CR4.LA57 and operate purely on whether the CPU
supports LA57.
* Bypass the register cache when querying CPL from kvm_sched_out(), as
filling the cache from IRQ context is generally unsafe; harden the
cache accessors to try to prevent similar issues from occuring in the
future. The issue that triggered this change was already fixed in 6.12,
but was still kinda latent.
* Advertise AMD_IBPB_RET to userspace, and fix a related bug where KVM
over-advertises SPEC_CTRL when trying to support cross-vendor VMs.
* Minor cleanups
* Switch hugepage recovery thread to use vhost_task. These kthreads can
consume significant amounts of CPU time on behalf of a VM or in response
to how the VM behaves (for example how it accesses its memory); therefore
KVM tried to place the thread in the VM's cgroups and charge the CPU
time consumed by that work to the VM's container. However the kthreads
did not process SIGSTOP/SIGCONT, and therefore cgroups which had KVM
instances inside could not complete freezing. Fix this by replacing the
kthread with a PF_USER_WORKER thread, via the vhost_task abstraction.
Another 100+ lines removed, with generally better behavior too like
having these threads properly parented in the process tree.
* Revert a workaround for an old CPU erratum (Nehalem/Westmere) that didn't
really work; there was really nothing to work around anyway: the broken
patch was meant to fix nested virtualization, but the PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL
MSR is virtualized and therefore unaffected by the erratum.
* Fix 6.12 regression where CONFIG_KVM will be built as a module even
if asked to be builtin, as long as neither KVM_INTEL nor KVM_AMD is 'y'.
x86 selftests:
* x86 selftests can now use AVX.
Documentation:
* Use rST internal links
* Reorganize the introduction to the API document
Generic:
* Protect vcpu->pid accesses outside of vcpu->mutex with a rwlock instead
of RCU, so that running a vCPU on a different task doesn't encounter long
due to having to wait for all CPUs become quiescent. In general both reads
and writes are rare, but userspace that supports confidential computing is
introducing the use of "helper" vCPUs that may jump from one host processor
to another. Those will be very happy to trigger a synchronize_rcu(), and
the effect on performance is quite the disaster.

asm-generic updates for 6.13
These are a number of unrelated cleanups, generally simplifying the
architecture specific header files:
- A series from Al Viro simplifies asm/vga.h, after it turns out that
most of it can be generalized.
- A series from Julian Vetter adds a common version of
memcpy_{to,from}io() and memset_io() and changes most architectures
to use that instead of their own implementation
- A series from Niklas Schnelle concludes his work to make PC
style inb()/outb() optional
- Nicolas Pitre contributes improvements for the generic do_div()
helper
- Christoph Hellwig adds a generic version of page_to_phys()
and phys_to_page(), replacing the slightly different architecture
specific definitions.
- Uwe Kleine-Koenig has a minor cleanup for ioctl definitions

ftrace updates for v6.13:
- Merged tag ftrace-v6.12-rc4 There was a fix to locking in register_ftrace_graph() for shadow stacks that was sent upstream. But this code was also being rewritten, and the locking fix was needed. Merging this fix was required to continue the work. - Restructure the function graph shadow stack to prepare it for use with kretprobes With the goal of merging the shadow stack logic of function graph and kretprobes, some more restructuring of the function shadow stack is required. Move out function graph specific fields from the fgraph infrastructure and store it on the new stack variables that can pass data from the entry callback to the exit callback. Hopefully, with this change, the merge of kretprobes to use fgraph shadow stacks will be ready by the next merge window. - Make shadow stack 4k instead of using PAGE_SIZE. Some architectures have very large PAGE_SIZE values which make its use for shadow stacks waste a lot of memory. - Give shadow stacks its own kmem cache. When function graph is started, every task on the system gets a shadow stack. In the future, shadow stacks may not be 4K in size. Have it have its own kmem cache so that whatever size it becomes will still be efficient in allocations. - Initialize profiler graph ops as it will be needed for new updates to fgraph - Convert to use guard(mutex) for several ftrace and fgraph functions - Add more comments and documentation - Show function return address in function graph tracer Add an option to show the caller of a function at each entry of the function graph tracer, similar to what the function tracer does. - Abstract out ftrace_regs from being used directly like pt_regs ftrace_regs was created to store a partial pt_regs. It holds only the registers and stack information to get to the function arguments and return values. On several archs, it is simply a wrapper around pt_regs. But some users would access ftrace_regs directly to get the pt_regs which will not work on all archs. Make ftrace_regs an abstract structure that requires all access to its fields be through accessor functions. - Show how long it takes to do function code modifications When code modification for function hooks happen, it always had the time recorded in how long it took to do the conversion. But this value was never exported. Recently the code was touched due to new ROX modification handling that caused a large slow down in doing the modifications and had a significant impact on boot times. Expose the timings in the dyn_ftrace_total_info file. This file was created a while ago to show information about memory usage and such to implement dynamic function tracing. It's also an appropriate file to store the timings of this modification as well. This will make it easier to see the impact of changes to code modification on boot up timings. - Other clean ups and small fixes -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCZztrUxQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6qnnNAQD6w4q9VQ7oOE2qKLqtnj87h4c1GqKn SPkpEfC3n/ATEAD/fnYjT/eOSlHiGHuD/aTA+U/bETrT99bozGM/4mFKEgY= =6nCa -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'ftrace-v6.13' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull ftrace updates from Steven Rostedt: - Restructure the function graph shadow stack to prepare it for use with kretprobes With the goal of merging the shadow stack logic of function graph and kretprobes, some more restructuring of the function shadow stack is required.

First step of consolidating the VDSO data page handling:
The VDSO data page handling is architecture specific for historical
reasons, but there is no real technical reason to do so.
Aside of that VDSO data has become a dump ground for various mechanisms
and fail to provide a clear separation of the functionalities.
Clean this up by:
* consolidating the VDSO page data by getting rid of architecture
specific warts especially in x86 and PowerPC.
* removing the last includes of header files which are pulling in other
headers outside of the VDSO namespace.
* seperating timekeeping and other VDSO data accordingly.
Further consolidation of the VDSO page handling is done in subsequent
changes scheduled for the next merge window.
This also lays the ground for expanding the VDSO time getters for
independent PTP clocks in a generic way without making every architecture
add support seperately.

powerpc/perf: Add per-task/process monitoring to vpa_pmu driver
Enhance the vpa_pmu driver with a feature to observe context switch latency event for both per-task (tid) and per-pid (pid) option. Couple of new helper functions are added to hide the abstraction of reading the context switch latency counter from kvm_vcpu_arch struct and these helper functions are defined in the "kvm/book3s_hv.c". "PERF_ATTACH_TASK" flag is used to decide whether to read the counter values from lppaca or kvm_vcpu_arch struct.

powerpc/fadump: allocate memory for additional parameters early
Memory for passing additional parameters to fadump capture kernel
is allocated during subsys_initcall level, using memblock. But
as slab is already available by this time, allocation happens via
the buddy allocator. This may work for radix MMU but is likely to
fail in most cases for hash MMU as hash MMU needs this memory in
the first memory block for it to be accessible in real mode in the
capture kernel (second boot). So, allocate memory for additional
parameters area as soon as MMU mode is obvious.

powerpc64/bpf: Add support for bpf trampolines
Add support for bpf_arch_text_poke() and arch_prepare_bpf_trampoline() for 64-bit powerpc. While the code is generic, BPF trampolines are only enabled on 64-bit powerpc. 32-bit powerpc will need testing and some updates. BPF Trampolines adhere to the existing ftrace ABI utilizing a two-instruction profiling sequence, as well as the newer ABI utilizing a three-instruction profiling sequence enabling return with a 'blr'. The trampoline code itself closely follows x86 implementation. BPF prog JIT is extended to mimic 64-bit powerpc approach for ftrace having a single nop at function entry, followed by the function profiling sequence out-of-line and a separate long branch stub for calls to trampolines that are out of range. A dummy_tramp is provided to simplify synchronization similar to arm64. When attaching a bpf trampoline to a bpf prog, we can patch up to three things: - the nop at bpf prog entry to go to the out-of-line stub - the instruction in the out-of-line stub to either call the bpf trampoline directly, or to branch to the long_branch stub. - the trampoline address before the long_branch stub. We do not need any synchronization here since we always have a valid branch target regardless of the order in which the above stores are seen. dummy_tramp ensures that the long_branch stub goes to a valid destination on other cpus, even when the branch to the long_branch stub is seen before the updated trampoline address. However, when detaching a bpf trampoline from a bpf prog, or if changing the bpf trampoline address, we need synchronization to ensure that other cpus can no longer branch into the older trampoline so that it can be safely freed. bpf_tramp_image_put() uses rcu_tasks to ensure all cpus make forward progress, but we still need to ensure that other cpus execute isync (or some CSI) so that they don't go back into the trampoline again. While here, update the stale comment that describes the redzone usage in ppc64 BPF JIT.

powerpc/ftrace: Add support for DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_DIRECT_CALLS
Add support for DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_DIRECT_CALLS similar to the arm64 implementation. ftrace direct calls allow custom trampolines to be called into directly from function ftrace call sites, bypassing the ftrace trampoline completely. This functionality is currently utilized by BPF trampolines to hook into kernel function entries. Since we have limited relative branch range, we support ftrace direct calls through support for DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS. In this approach, ftrace trampoline is not entirely bypassed. Rather, it is re-purposed into a stub that reads direct_call field from the associated ftrace_ops structure and branches into that, if it is not NULL. For this, it is sufficient if we can ensure that the ftrace trampoline is reachable from all traceable functions. When multiple ftrace_ops are associated with a call site, we utilize a call back to set pt_regs->orig_gpr3 that can then be tested on the return path from the ftrace trampoline to branch into the direct caller.

powerpc/ftrace: Add support for DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS
Implement support for DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS similar to the arm64 implementation. This works by patching-in a pointer to an associated ftrace_ops structure before each traceable function. If multiple ftrace_ops are associated with a call site, then a special ftrace_list_ops is used to enable iterating over all the registered ftrace_ops. If no ftrace_ops are associated with a call site, then a special ftrace_nop_ops structure is used to render the ftrace call as a no-op. ftrace trampoline can then read the associated ftrace_ops for a call site by loading from an offset from the LR, and branch directly to the associated function. The primary advantage with this approach is that we don't have to iterate over all the registered ftrace_ops for call sites that have a single ftrace_ops registered. This is the equivalent of implementing support for dynamic ftrace trampolines, which set up a special ftrace trampoline for each registered ftrace_ops and have individual call sites branch into those directly. A secondary advantage is that this gives us a way to add support for direct ftrace callers without having to resort to using stubs. The address of the direct call trampoline can be loaded from the ftrace_ops structure. To support this, we reserve a nop before each function on 32-bit powerpc. For 64-bit powerpc, two nops are reserved before each out-of-line stub. During ftrace activation, we update this location with the associated ftrace_ops pointer. Then, on ftrace entry, we load from this location and call into ftrace_ops->func(). For 64-bit powerpc, we ensure that the out-of-line stub area is doubleword aligned so that ftrace_ops address can be updated atomically.

powerpc64/ftrace: Support .text larger than 32MB with out-of-line stubs
We are restricted to a .text size of ~32MB when using out-of-line function profile sequence. Allow this to be extended up to the previous limit of ~64MB by reserving space in the middle of .text. A new config option CONFIG_PPC_FTRACE_OUT_OF_LINE_NUM_RESERVE is introduced to specify the number of function stubs that are reserved in .text. On boot, ftrace utilizes stubs from this area first before using the stub area at the end of .text. A ppc64le defconfig has ~44k functions that can be traced. A more conservative value of 32k functions is chosen as the default value of PPC_FTRACE_OUT_OF_LINE_NUM_RESERVE so that we do not allot more space than necessary by default. If building a kernel that only has 32k trace-able functions, we won't allot any more space at the end of .text during the pass on vmlinux.o. Otherwise, only the remaining functions get space for stubs at the end of .text. This default value should help cover a .text size of ~48MB in total (including space reserved at the end of .text which can cover up to 32MB), which should be sufficient for most common builds. For a very small kernel build, this can be set to 0. Or, this can be bumped up to a larger value to support vmlinux .text size up to ~64MB.

powerpc64/ftrace: Move ftrace sequence out of line
Function profile sequence on powerpc includes two instructions at the beginning of each function: mflr r0 bl ftrace_caller The call to ftrace_caller() gets nop'ed out during kernel boot and is patched in when ftrace is enabled. Given the sequence, we cannot return from ftrace_caller with 'blr' as we need to keep LR and r0 intact. This results in link stack (return address predictor) imbalance when ftrace is enabled. To address that, we would like to use a three instruction sequence: mflr r0 bl ftrace_caller mtlr r0 Further more, to support DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS, we need to reserve two instruction slots before the function. This results in a total of five instruction slots to be reserved for ftrace use on each function that is traced. Move the function profile sequence out-of-line to minimize its impact. To do this, we reserve a single nop at function entry using -fpatchable-function-entry=1 and add a pass on vmlinux.o to determine the total number of functions that can be traced. This is then used to generate a .S file reserving the appropriate amount of space for use as ftrace stubs, which is built and linked into vmlinux. On bootup, the stub space is split into separate stubs per function and populated with the proper instruction sequence. A pointer to the associated stub is maintained in dyn_arch_ftrace. For modules, space for ftrace stubs is reserved from the generic module stub space. This is restricted to and enabled by default only on 64-bit powerpc, though there are some changes to accommodate 32-bit powerpc. This is done so that 32-bit powerpc could choose to opt into this based on further tests and benchmarks. As an example, after this patch, kernel functions will have a single nop at function entry: <kernel_clone>: addis r2,r12,467 addi r2,r2,-16028 nop mfocrf r11,8 ... When ftrace is enabled, the nop is converted to an unconditional branch to the stub associated with that function: <kernel_clone>: addis r2,r12,467 addi r2,r2,-16028 b ftrace_ool_stub_text_end+0x11b28 mfocrf r11,8 ... The associated stub: <ftrace_ool_stub_text_end+0x11b28>: mflr r0 bl ftrace_caller mtlr r0 b kernel_clone+0xc ... This change showed an improvement of ~10% in null_syscall benchmark on a Power 10 system with ftrace enabled.

Define kfence related linear map variables. - u8 *linear_map_kf_hash_slots; - unsigned long linear_map_kf_hash_count; - DEFINE_RAW_SPINLOCK(linear_map_kf_hash_lock); 2. The linear map size allocated in RMA region is quite small (KFENCE_POOL_SIZE >> PAGE_SHIFT) which is 512 bytes by default. 3. kfence pool memory is reserved using memblock_phys_alloc() which has can come from anywhere. (default 255 objects => ((1+255) * 2) << PAGE_SHIFT = 32MB) 4.

book3s64/hash: Remove kfence support temporarily
Kfence on book3s Hash on pseries is anyways broken. It fails to boot due to RMA size limitation. That is because, kfence with Hash uses debug_pagealloc infrastructure. debug_pagealloc allocates linear map for entire dram size instead of just kfence relevant objects. This means for 16TB of DRAM it will require (16TB >> PAGE_SHIFT) which is 256MB which is half of RMA region on P8. crash kernel reserves 256MB and we also need 2048 * 16KB * 3 for emergency stack and some more for paca allocations. That means there is not enough memory for reserving the full linear map in the RMA region, if the DRAM size is too big (>=16TB) (The issue is seen above 8TB with crash kernel 256 MB reservation). Now Kfence does not require linear memory map for entire DRAM. It only needs for kfence objects. So this patch temporarily removes the kfence functionality since debug_pagealloc code needs some refactoring. We will bring in kfence on Hash support in later patches.

powerpc/fadump: Move fadump_cma_init to setup_arch() after initmem_init()
During early init CMA_MIN_ALIGNMENT_BYTES can be PAGE_SIZE,
since pageblock_order is still zero and it gets initialized
later during initmem_init() e.g.
setup_arch() -> initmem_init() -> sparse_init() -> set_pageblock_order()
One such use case where this causes issue is -
early_setup() -> early_init_devtree() -> fadump_reserve_mem() -> fadump_cma_init()
This causes CMA memory alignment check to be bypassed in
cma_init_reserved_mem(). Then later cma_activate_area() can hit
a VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(pfn & ((1 << order) - 1)) if the reserved memory
area was not pageblock_order aligned.
Fix it by moving the fadump_cma_init() after initmem_init(),
where other such cma reservations also gets called.

powerpc/vdso: Implement __arch_get_vdso_rng_data()
VDSO time functions do not call any other function, so they don't need to save/restore LR. However, retrieving the address of VDSO data page requires using LR hence saving then restoring it, which can be heavy on some CPUs. On the other hand, VDSO functions on powerpc are not standard functions and require a wrapper function to call C VDSO functions. And that wrapper has to save and restore LR in order to call the C VDSO function, so retrieving VDSO data page address in that wrapper doesn't require additional save/restore of LR. For random VDSO functions it is a bit different. Because the function calls __arch_chacha20_blocks_nostack(), it saves and restores LR. Retrieving VDSO data page address can then be done there without additional save/restore of LR. So lets implement __arch_get_vdso_rng_data() and simplify the wrapper. It starts paving the way for the day powerpc will implement a more standard ABI for VDSO functions.

powerpc/vdso: Add a page for non-time data
The page containing VDSO time data is swapped with the one containing TIME namespace data when a process uses a non-root time namespace. For other data like powerpc specific data and RNG data, it means tracking whether time namespace is the root one or not to know which page to use. Simplify the logic behind by moving time data out of first data page so that the first data page which contains everything else always remains the first page. Time data is in the second or third page depending on selected time namespace. While we are playing with get_datapage macro, directly take into account the data offset inside the macro instead of adding that offset afterwards.

ftrace: Consolidate ftrace_regs accessor functions for archs using pt_regs
Most architectures use pt_regs within ftrace_regs making a lot of the accessor functions just calls to the pt_regs internally. Instead of duplication this effort, use a HAVE_ARCH_FTRACE_REGS for architectures that have their own ftrace_regs that is not based on pt_regs and will define all the accessor functions, and for the architectures that just use pt_regs, it will leave it undefined, and the default accessor functions will be used. Note, this will also make it easier to add new accessor functions to ftrace_regs as it will mean having to touch less architectures.

ftrace: Make ftrace_regs abstract from direct use
ftrace_regs was created to hold registers that store information to save function parameters, return value and stack. Since it is a subset of pt_regs, it should only be used by its accessor functions. But because pt_regs can easily be taken from ftrace_regs (on most archs), it is tempting to use it directly. But when running on other architectures, it may fail to build or worse, build but crash the kernel! Instead, make struct ftrace_regs an empty structure and have the architectures define __arch_ftrace_regs and all the accessor functions will typecast to it to get to the actual fields. This will help avoid usage of ftrace_regs directly.
