Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"Arm:
- Add support for tracing in the standalone EL2 hypervisor code,
which should help both debugging and performance analysis. This
uses the new infrastructure for 'remote' trace buffers that can be
exposed by non-kernel entities such as firmware, and which came
through the tracing tree
- Add support for GICv5 Per Processor Interrupts (PPIs), as the
starting point for supporting the new GIC architecture in KVM
- Finally add support for pKVM protected guests, where pages are
unmapped from the host as they are faulted into the guest and can
be shared back from the guest using pKVM hypercalls. Protected
guests are created using a new machine type identifier. As the
elusive guestmem has not yet delivered on its promises, anonymous
memory is also supported
This is only a first step towards full isolation from the host; for
example, the CPU register state and DMA accesses are not yet
isolated. Because this does not really yet bring fully what it
promises, it is hidden behind CONFIG_ARM_PKVM_GUEST +
'kvm-arm.mode=protected', and also triggers TAINT_USER when a VM is
created. Caveat emptor
- Rework the dreaded user_mem_abort() function to make it more
maintainable, reducing the amount of state being exposed to the
various helpers and rendering a substantial amount of state
immutable
- Expand the Stage-2 page table dumper to support NV shadow page
tables on a per-VM basis
- Tidy up the pKVM PSCI proxy code to be slightly less hard to
follow
- Fix both SPE and TRBE in non-VHE configurations so that they do not
generate spurious, out of context table walks that ultimately lead
to very bad HW lockups
- A small set of patches fixing the Stage-2 MMU freeing in error
cases
- Tighten-up accepted SMC immediate value to be only #0 for host
SMCCC calls
- The usual cleanups and other selftest churn
LoongArch:
- Use CSR_CRMD_PLV for kvm_arch_vcpu_in_kernel()
- Add DMSINTC irqchip in kernel support
RISC-V:
- Fix steal time shared memory alignment checks
- Fix vector context allocation leak
- Fix array out-of-bounds in pmu_ctr_read() and pmu_fw_ctr_read_hi()
- Fix double-free of sdata in kvm_pmu_clear_snapshot_area()
- Fix integer overflow in kvm_pmu_validate_counter_mask()
- Fix shift-out-of-bounds in make_xfence_request()
- Fix lost write protection on huge pages during dirty logging
- Split huge pages during fault handling for dirty logging
- Skip CSR restore if VCPU is reloaded on the same core
- Implement kvm_arch_has_default_irqchip() for KVM selftests
- Factored-out ISA checks into separate sources
- Added hideleg to struct kvm_vcpu_config
- Factored-out VCPU config into separate sources
- Support configuration of per-VM HGATP mode from KVM user space
s390:
- Support for ESA (31-bit) guests inside nested hypervisors
- Remove restriction on memslot alignment, which is not needed
anymore with the new gmap code
- Fix LPSW/E to update the bear (which of course is the breaking
event address register)
x86:
- Shut up various UBSAN warnings on reading module parameter before
they were initialized
- Don't zero-allocate page tables that are used for splitting
hugepages in the TDP MMU, as KVM is guaranteed to set all SPTEs in
the page table and thus write all bytes
- As an optimization, bail early when trying to unsync 4KiB mappings
if the target gfn can just be mapped with a 2MiB hugepage
x86 generic:
- Copy single-chunk MMIO write values into struct kvm_vcpu (more
precisely struct kvm_mmio_fragment) to fix use-after-free stack
bugs where KVM would dereference stack pointer after an exit to
userspace
- Clean up and comment the emulated MMIO code to try to make it
easier to maintain (not necessarily "easy", but "easier")
- Move VMXON+VMXOFF and EFER.SVME toggling out of KVM (not *all* of
VMX and SVM enabling) as it is needed for trusted I/O
- Advertise support for AVX512 Bit Matrix Multiply (BMM) instructions
- Immediately fail the build if a required #define is missing in one
of KVM's headers that is included multiple times
- Reject SET_GUEST_DEBUG with -EBUSY if there's an already injected
exception, mostly to prevent syzkaller from abusing the uAPI to
trigger WARNs, but also because it can help prevent userspace from
unintentionally crashing the VM
- Exempt SMM from CPUID faulting on Intel, as per the spec
- Misc hardening and cleanup changes
x86 (AMD):
- Fix and optimize IRQ window inhibit handling for AVIC; make it
per-vCPU so that KVM doesn't prematurely re-enable AVIC if multiple
vCPUs have to-be-injected IRQs
- Clean up and optimize the OSVW handling, avoiding a bug in which
KVM would overwrite state when enabling virtualization on multiple
CPUs in parallel. This should not be a problem because OSVW should
usually be the same for all CPUs
- Drop a WARN in KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_REG_REGION where KVM complains
about a "too large" size based purely on user input
- Clean up and harden the pinning code for KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_REG_REGION
- Disallow synchronizing a VMSA of an already-launched/encrypted
vCPU, as doing so for an SNP guest will crash the host due to an
RMP violation page fault
- Overhaul KVM's APIs for detecting SEV+ guests so that VM-scoped
queries are required to hold kvm->lock, and enforce it by lockdep.
Fix various bugs where sev_guest() was not ensured to be stable for
the whole duration of a function or ioctl
- Convert a pile of kvm->lock SEV code to guard()
- Play nicer with userspace that does not enable
KVM_CAP_EXCEPTION_PAYLOAD, for which KVM needs to set CR2 and DR6
as a response to ioctls such as KVM_GET_VCPU_EVENTS (even if the
payload would end up in EXITINFO2 rather than CR2, for example).
Only set CR2 and DR6 when consumption of the payload is imminent,
but on the other hand force delivery of the payload in all paths
where userspace retrieves CR2 or DR6
- Use vcpu->arch.cr2 when updating vmcb12's CR2 on nested #VMEXIT
instead of vmcb02->save.cr2. The value is out of sync after a
save/restore or after a #PF is injected into L2
- Fix a class of nSVM bugs where some fields written by the CPU are
not synchronized from vmcb02 to cached vmcb12 after VMRUN, and so
are not up-to-date when saved by KVM_GET_NESTED_STATE
- Fix a class of bugs where the ordering between KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE
and KVM_SET_{S}REGS could cause vmcb02 to be incorrectly
initialized after save+restore
- Add a variety of missing nSVM consistency checks
- Fix several bugs where KVM failed to correctly update VMCB fields
on nested #VMEXIT
- Fix several bugs where KVM failed to correctly synthesize #UD or
#GP for SVM-related instructions
- Add support for save+restore of virtualized LBRs (on SVM)
- Refactor various helpers and macros to improve clarity and
(hopefully) make the code easier to maintain
- Aggressively sanitize fields when copying from vmcb12, to guard
against unintentionally allowing L1 to utilize yet-to-be-defined
features
- Fix several bugs where KVM botched rAX legality checks when
emulating SVM instructions. There are remaining issues in that KVM
doesn't handle size prefix overrides for 64-bit guests
- Fail emulation of VMRUN/VMLOAD/VMSAVE if mapping vmcb12 fails
instead of somewhat arbitrarily synthesizing #GP (i.e. don't double
down on AMD's architectural but sketchy behavior of generating #GP
for "unsupported" addresses)
- Cache all used vmcb12 fields to further harden against TOCTOU bugs
x86 (Intel):
- Drop obsolete branch hint prefixes from the VMX instruction macros
- Use ASM_INPUT_RM() in __vmcs_writel() to coerce clang into using a
register input when appropriate
- Code cleanups
guest_memfd:
- Don't mark guest_memfd folios as accessed, as guest_memfd doesn't
support reclaim, the memory is unevictable, and there is no storage
to write back to
LoongArch selftests:
- Add KVM PMU test cases
s390 selftests:
- Enable more memory selftests
x86 selftests:
- Add support for Hygon CPUs in KVM selftests
- Fix a bug in the MSR test where it would get false failures on
AMD/Hygon CPUs with exactly one of RDPID or RDTSCP
- Add an MADV_COLLAPSE testcase for guest_memfd as a regression test
for a bug where the kernel would attempt to collapse guest_memfd
folios against KVM's will"

kvm_pgtable_stage2_set_owner() can be generalised into a way to store
up to 59 bits in the page tables alongside a 4-bit 'type' identifier
specific to the format of the 59-bit payload.
Introduce kvm_pgtable_stage2_annotate() and move the existing invalid
ptes (for locked ptes and donated pages) over to the new scheme.

The __TLBI_VADDR() macro takes an ASID and an address and converts them
into a single argument formatted correctly for a TLB invalidation
instruction.
Rather than have callers worry about this (especially in the case where
the ASID is zero), push the macro down into __tlbi_level() via a new
__tlbi_level_asid() helper.

The ARM64_WORKAROUND_REPEAT_TLBI workaround is used to mitigate several
errata where broadcast TLBI;DSB sequences don't provide all the
architecturally required synchronization. The workaround performs more
work than necessary, and can have significant overhead. This patch
optimizes the workaround, as explained below.
The workaround was originally added for Qualcomm Falkor erratum 1009 in
commit:
d9ff80f83e ("arm64: Work around Falkor erratum 1009")
As noted in the message for that commit, the workaround is applied even
in cases where it is not strictly necessary.
The workaround was later reused without changes for:
* Arm Cortex-A76 erratum #1286807
SDEN v33: https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-885749/33-0/
* Arm Cortex-A55 erratum #2441007
SDEN v16: https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-859338/1600/
* Arm Cortex-A510 erratum #2441009
SDEN v19: https://developer.arm.com/documentation/SDEN-1873351/1900/
The important details to note are as follows:
1. All relevant errata only affect the ordering and/or completion of
memory accesses which have been translated by an invalidated TLB
entry. The actual invalidation of TLB entries is unaffected.
2. The existing workaround is applied to both broadcast and local TLB
invalidation, whereas for all relevant errata it is only necessary to
apply a workaround for broadcast invalidation.
3. The existing workaround replaces every TLBI with a TLBI;DSB;TLBI
sequence, whereas for all relevant errata it is only necessary to
execute a single additional TLBI;DSB sequence after any number of
TLBIs are completed by a DSB.
For example, for a sequence of batched TLBIs:
TLBI <op1>[, <arg1>]
TLBI <op2>[, <arg2>]
TLBI <op3>[, <arg3>]
DSB ISH
... the existing workaround will expand this to:
TLBI <op1>[, <arg1>]
DSB ISH // additional
TLBI <op1>[, <arg1>] // additional
TLBI <op2>[, <arg2>]
DSB ISH // additional
TLBI <op2>[, <arg2>] // additional
TLBI <op3>[, <arg3>]
DSB ISH // additional
TLBI <op3>[, <arg3>] // additional
DSB ISH
... whereas it is sufficient to have:
TLBI <op1>[, <arg1>]
TLBI <op2>[, <arg2>]
TLBI <op3>[, <arg3>]
DSB ISH
TLBI <opX>[, <argX>] // additional
DSB ISH // additional
Using a single additional TBLI and DSB at the end of the sequence can
have significantly lower overhead as each DSB which completes a TLBI
must synchronize with other PEs in the system, with potential
performance effects both locally and system-wide.
4. The existing workaround repeats each specific TLBI operation, whereas
for all relevant errata it is sufficient for the additional TLBI to
use *any* operation which will be broadcast, regardless of which
translation regime or stage of translation the operation applies to.
For example, for a single TLBI:
TLBI ALLE2IS
DSB ISH
... the existing workaround will expand this to:
TLBI ALLE2IS
DSB ISH
TLBI ALLE2IS // additional
DSB ISH // additional
... whereas it is sufficient to have:
TLBI ALLE2IS
DSB ISH
TLBI VALE1IS, XZR // additional
DSB ISH // additional
As the additional TLBI doesn't have to match a specific earlier TLBI,
the additional TLBI can be implemented in separate code, with no
memory of the earlier TLBIs. The additional TLBI can also use a
cheaper TLBI operation.
5. The existing workaround is applied to both Stage-1 and Stage-2 TLB
invalidation, whereas for all relevant errata it is only necessary to
apply a workaround for Stage-1 invalidation.
Architecturally, TLBI operations which invalidate only Stage-2
information (e.g. IPAS2E1IS) are not required to invalidate TLB
entries which combine information from Stage-1 and Stage-2
translation table entries, and consequently may not complete memory
accesses translated by those combined entries. In these cases,
completion of memory accesses is only guaranteed after subsequent
invalidation of Stage-1 information (e.g. VMALLE1IS).
Taking the above points into account, this patch reworks the workaround
logic to reduce overhead:
* New __tlbi_sync_s1ish() and __tlbi_sync_s1ish_hyp() functions are
added and used in place of any dsb(ish) which is used to complete
broadcast Stage-1 TLB maintenance. When the
ARM64_WORKAROUND_REPEAT_TLBI workaround is enabled, these helpers will
execute an additional TLBI;DSB sequence.
For consistency, it might make sense to add __tlbi_sync_*() helpers
for local and stage 2 maintenance. For now I've left those with
open-coded dsb() to keep the diff small.
* The duplication of TLBIs in __TLBI_0() and __TLBI_1() is removed. This
is no longer needed as the necessary synchronization will happen in
__tlbi_sync_s1ish() or __tlbi_sync_s1ish_hyp().
* The additional TLBI operation is chosen to have minimal impact:
- __tlbi_sync_s1ish() uses "TLBI VALE1IS, XZR". This is only used at
EL1 or at EL2 with {E2H,TGE}=={1,1}, where it will target an unused
entry for the reserved ASID in the kernel's own translation regime,
and have no adverse affect.
- __tlbi_sync_s1ish_hyp() uses "TLBI VALE2IS, XZR". This is only used
in hyp code, where it will target an unused entry in the hyp code's
TTBR0 mapping, and should have no adverse effect.
* As __TLBI_0() and __TLBI_1() no longer replace each TLBI with a
TLBI;DSB;TLBI sequence, batching TLBIs is worthwhile, and there's no
need for arch_tlbbatch_should_defer() to consider
ARM64_WORKAROUND_REPEAT_TLBI.

Our definition of VTCR_EL2 is both partial (tons of fields are
missing) and totally inconsistent (some constants are shifted,
some are not). They are also expressed in terms of TCR, which is
rather inconvenient.
Replace the ad-hoc definitions with the the generated version.
This results in a bunch of additional changes to make the code
with the unshifted nature of generated enumerations.

Commit ddcadb297c ("KVM: arm64: Ignore EAGAIN for walks outside of a
fault") introduced a new walker flag ('KVM_PGTABLE_WALK_HANDLE_FAULT')
to KVM's page-table code. When set, the walk logic maintains its
previous behaviour of terminating a walk as soon as the visitor callback
returns an error. However, when the flag is clear, the walk will
continue if the visitor returns -EAGAIN and the error is then suppressed
and returned as zero to the caller.
Clearing the flag is beneficial when write-protecting a range of IPAs
with kvm_pgtable_stage2_wrprotect() but is not useful in any other
cases, either because we are operating on a single page (e.g.
kvm_pgtable_stage2_mkyoung() or kvm_phys_addr_ioremap()) or because the
early termination is desirable (e.g. when mapping pages from a fault in
user_mem_abort()).
Subsequently, commit e912efed48 ("KVM: arm64: Introduce the EL1 pKVM
MMU") hooked up pKVM's hypercall interface to the MMU code at EL1 but
failed to propagate any of the walker flags. As a result, page-table
walks at EL2 fail to set KVM_PGTABLE_WALK_HANDLE_FAULT even when the
early termination semantics are desirable on the fault handling path.
Rather than complicate the pKVM hypercall interface, invert the flag so
that the whole thing can be simplified and only pass the new flag
('KVM_PGTABLE_WALK_IGNORE_EAGAIN') from the wrprotect code.

A subsequent change to the way KVM frees stage-2s will invoke the free
walker on sub-ranges of the VM's IPA space, meaning there's potential
for only partially visiting a table's PTEs.
Split the leaf and table visitors and only drop references on a table
when the page count reaches 1, implying there are no valid PTEs that
need to be visited. Invalidate the table PTE to avoid traversing the
stale reference.

With the introduction of stage-2 huge mappings in the pKVM hypervisor,
guest pages CMO is needed for PMD_SIZE size. Fixmap only supports
PAGE_SIZE and iterating over the huge-page is time consuming (mostly due
to TLBI on hyp_fixmap_unmap) which is a problem for EL2 latency.
Introduce a shared PMD_SIZE fixmap (hyp_fixblock_map/hyp_fixblock_unmap)
to improve guest page CMOs when stage-2 huge mappings are installed.
On a Pixel6, the iterative solution resulted in a latency of ~700us,
while the PMD_SIZE fixmap reduces it to ~100us.
Because of the horrendous private range allocation that would be
necessary, this is disabled for 64KiB pages systems.

The pKVM stage2 mapping code relies on an invalid physical address to
signal to the internal API that only the annotations of descriptors
should be updated, and these are stored in the high bits of invalid
descriptors covering memory that has been donated to protected guests,
and is therefore unmapped from the host stage-2 page tables.
Given that these invalid PAs are never stored into the descriptors, it
is better to rely on an explicit flag, to clarify the API and to avoid
confusion regarding whether or not the output address of a descriptor
can ever be invalid to begin with (which is not the case with LPA2).
That removes a dependency on the logic that reasons about the maximum PA
range, which differs on LPA2 capable CPUs based on whether LPA2 is
enabled or not, and will be further clarified in subsequent patches.

Don't mark pages/folios as accessed in the primary MMU when making a SPTE
young in KVM's secondary MMU, as doing so relies on
kvm_pfn_to_refcounted_page(), and generally speaking is unnecessary and
wasteful. KVM participates in page aging via mmu_notifiers, so there's no
need to push "accessed" updates to the primary MMU.
Dropping use of kvm_set_pfn_accessed() also paves the way for removing
kvm_pfn_to_refcounted_page() and all its users.

This DSB guarantees page table updates have been made visible to the
hardware table walker. Moving the DSB from stage2_split_walker() to
after the walk is finished in kvm_pgtable_stage2_split() results in a
roughly 70% reduction in Clear Dirty Log Time in
dirty_log_perf_test (modified to use eager page splitting) when using
huge pages. This gain holds steady through a range of vcpus
used (tested 1-64) and memory used (tested 1-64GB).
This is safe to do because nothing else is using the page tables while
they are still being mapped and this is how other page table walkers
already function. None of them have a data barrier in the walker
itself because relative ordering of table PTEs to table contents comes
from the release semantics of stage2_make_pte().

Break-before-make (BBM) can be expensive, as transitioning via an
invalid mapping (i.e. the "break" step) requires the completion of TLB
invalidation and can also cause other agents to fault concurrently on
the invalid mapping.
Since BBM is not required when changing only the software bits of a PTE,
avoid the sequence in this case and just update the PTE directly.

When zapping a table entry in stage2_try_break_pte(), we issue range
TLB invalidation for the region that was mapped by the table. However,
we neglect to align the base address down to the granule size and so
if we ended up reaching the table entry via a misaligned address then
we will accidentally skip invalidation for some prefix of the affected
address range.

Commit 7657ea920c ("KVM: arm64: Use TLBI range-based instructions for
unmap") introduced deferred TLB invalidation for the stage-2 page-table
so that range-based invalidation can be used for the accumulated
addresses. This works fine if the structure of the page-tables remains
unchanged, but if entire tables are zapped and subsequently freed then
we transiently leave the hardware page-table walker with a reference
to freed memory thanks to the translation walk caches. For example,
stage2_unmap_walker() will free page-table pages:
if (childp)
mm_ops->put_page(childp);
and issue the TLB invalidation later in kvm_pgtable_stage2_unmap():
if (stage2_unmap_defer_tlb_flush(pgt))
/* Perform the deferred TLB invalidations */
kvm_tlb_flush_vmid_range(pgt->mmu, addr, size);
For now, take the conservative approach and invalidate the TLB eagerly
when we clear a table entry. Note, however, that the existing level
hint passed to __kvm_tlb_flush_vmid_ipa() is incorrect and will be
fixed in a subsequent patch.

KVM/arm64 updates for 6.9
- Infrastructure for building KVM's trap configuration based on the
architectural features (or lack thereof) advertised in the VM's ID
registers
- Support for mapping vfio-pci BARs as Normal-NC (vaguely similar to
x86's WC) at stage-2, improving the performance of interacting with
assigned devices that can tolerate it
- Conversion of KVM's representation of LPIs to an xarray, utilized to
address serialization some of the serialization on the LPI injection
path
- Support for _architectural_ VHE-only systems, advertised through the
absence of FEAT_E2H0 in the CPU's ID register
- Miscellaneous cleanups, fixes, and spelling corrections to KVM and
selftests
Currently, KVM for ARM64 maps at stage 2 memory that is considered device
(i.e. it is not RAM) with DEVICE_nGnRE memory attributes; this setting
overrides (as per the ARM architecture [1]) any device MMIO mapping
present at stage 1, resulting in a set-up whereby a guest operating
system cannot determine device MMIO mapping memory attributes on its
own but it is always overridden by the KVM stage 2 default.
This set-up does not allow guest operating systems to select device
memory attributes independently from KVM stage-2 mappings
(refer to [1], "Combining stage 1 and stage 2 memory type attributes"),
which turns out to be an issue in that guest operating systems
(e.g. Linux) may request to map devices MMIO regions with memory
attributes that guarantee better performance (e.g. gathering
attribute - that for some devices can generate larger PCIe memory
writes TLPs) and specific operations (e.g. unaligned transactions)
such as the NormalNC memory type.
The default device stage 2 mapping was chosen in KVM for ARM64 since
it was considered safer (i.e. it would not allow guests to trigger
uncontained failures ultimately crashing the machine) but this
turned out to be asynchronous (SError) defeating the purpose.
Failures containability is a property of the platform and is independent
from the memory type used for MMIO device memory mappings.
Actually, DEVICE_nGnRE memory type is even more problematic than
Normal-NC memory type in terms of faults containability in that e.g.
aborts triggered on DEVICE_nGnRE loads cannot be made, architecturally,
synchronous (i.e. that would imply that the processor should issue at
most 1 load transaction at a time - it cannot pipeline them - otherwise
the synchronous abort semantics would break the no-speculation attribute
attached to DEVICE_XXX memory).
This means that regardless of the combined stage1+stage2 mappings a
platform is safe if and only if device transactions cannot trigger
uncontained failures and that in turn relies on platform capabilities
and the device type being assigned (i.e. PCIe AER/DPC error containment
and RAS architecture[3]); therefore the default KVM device stage 2
memory attributes play no role in making device assignment safer
for a given platform (if the platform design adheres to design
guidelines outlined in [3]) and therefore can be relaxed.
For all these reasons, relax the KVM stage 2 device memory attributes
from DEVICE_nGnRE to Normal-NC.
The NormalNC was chosen over a different Normal memory type default
at stage-2 (e.g. Normal Write-through) to avoid cache allocation/snooping.
Relaxing S2 KVM device MMIO mappings to Normal-NC is not expected to
trigger any issue on guest device reclaim use cases either (i.e. device
MMIO unmap followed by a device reset) at least for PCIe devices, in that
in PCIe a device reset is architected and carried out through PCI config
space transactions that are naturally ordered with respect to MMIO
transactions according to the PCI ordering rules.
Having Normal-NC S2 default puts guests in control (thanks to
stage1+stage2 combined memory attributes rules [1]) of device MMIO
regions memory mappings, according to the rules described in [1]
and summarized here ([(S1) - stage1], [(S2) - stage 2]):
S1 | S2 | Result
NORMAL-WB | NORMAL-NC | NORMAL-NC
NORMAL-WT | NORMAL-NC | NORMAL-NC
NORMAL-NC | NORMAL-NC | NORMAL-NC
DEVICE<attr> | NORMAL-NC | DEVICE<attr>
It is worth noting that currently, to map devices MMIO space to user
space in a device pass-through use case the VFIO framework applies memory
attributes derived from pgprot_noncached() settings applied to VMAs, which
result in device-nGnRnE memory attributes for the stage-1 VMM mappings.
This means that a userspace mapping for device MMIO space carried
out with the current VFIO framework and a guest OS mapping for the same
MMIO space may result in a mismatched alias as described in [2].
Defaulting KVM device stage-2 mappings to Normal-NC attributes does not
change anything in this respect, in that the mismatched aliases would
only affect (refer to [2] for a detailed explanation) ordering between
the userspace and GuestOS mappings resulting stream of transactions
(i.e. it does not cause loss of property for either stream of
transactions on its own), which is harmless given that the userspace
and GuestOS access to the device is carried out through independent
transactions streams.
A Normal-NC flag is not present today. So add a new kvm_pgtable_prot
(KVM_PGTABLE_PROT_NORMAL_NC) flag for it, along with its
corresponding PTE value 0x5 (0b101) determined from [1].
Lastly, adapt the stage2 PTE property setter function
(stage2_set_prot_attr) to handle the NormalNC attribute.
The entire discussion leading to this patch series may be followed through
the following links.

FEAT_LPA2 increases the maximum levels of translation from 4 to 5 for
the 4KB page case, when IA is >48 bits. While we can still use 4 levels
for stage2 translation in this case (due to stage2 allowing concatenated
page tables for first level lookup), the same kvm_pgtable library is
used for the hyp stage1 page tables and stage1 does not support
concatenation.
Therefore, modify the library to support up to 5 levels. Previous
patches already laid the groundwork for this by refactoring code to work
in terms of KVM_PGTABLE_FIRST_LEVEL and KVM_PGTABLE_LAST_LEVEL. So we
just need to change these macros.
The hardware sometimes encodes the new level differently from the
others: One such place is when reading the level from the FSC field in
the ESR_EL2 register. We never expect to see the lowest level (-1) here
since the stage 2 page tables always use concatenated tables for first
level lookup and therefore only use 4 levels of lookup. So we get away
with just adding a comment to explain why we are not being careful about
decoding level -1.
For stage2 VTCR_EL2.SL2 is introduced to encode the new start level.
However, since we always use concatenated page tables for first level
look up at stage2 (and therefore we will never need the new extra level)
we never touch this new field.

With the introduction of FEAT_LPA2, the Arm ARM adds a new level of
translation, level -1, so levels can now be in the range [-1;3]. 3 is
always the last level and the first level is determined based on the
number of VA bits in use.
Convert level variables to use a signed type in preparation for
supporting this new level -1.
Since the last level is always anchored at 3, and the first level varies
to suit the number of VA/IPA bits, take the opportunity to replace
KVM_PGTABLE_MAX_LEVELS with the 2 macros KVM_PGTABLE_FIRST_LEVEL and
KVM_PGTABLE_LAST_LEVEL. This removes the assumption from the code that
levels run from 0 to KVM_PGTABLE_MAX_LEVELS - 1, which will soon no
longer be true.

Implement a simple policy whereby if the HW supports FEAT_LPA2 for the
page size we are using, always use LPA2-style page-tables for stage 2
and hyp stage 1 (assuming an nvhe hyp), regardless of the VMM-requested
IPA size or HW-implemented PA size. When in use we can now support up to
52-bit IPA and PA sizes.
We use the previously created cpu feature to track whether LPA2 is
supported for deciding whether to use the LPA2 or classic pte format.
Note that FEAT_LPA2 brings support for bigger block mappings (512GB with
4KB, 64GB with 16KB). We explicitly don't enable these in the library
because stage2_apply_range() works on batch sizes of the largest used
block mapping, and increasing the size of the batch would lead to soft
lockups. See commit 5994bc9e05 ("KVM: arm64: Limit
stage2_apply_range() batch size to largest block").
With the addition of LPA2 support in the hypervisor, the PA size
supported by the HW must be capped with a runtime decision, rather than
simply using a compile-time decision based on PA_BITS. For example, on a
system that advertises 52 bit PA but does not support FEAT_LPA2, A 4KB
or 16KB kernel compiled with LPA2 support must still limit the PA size
to 48 bits.
Therefore, move the insertion of the PS field into TCR_EL2 out of
__kvm_hyp_init assembly code and instead do it in cpu_prepare_hyp_mode()
where the rest of TCR_EL2 is prepared. This allows us to figure out PS
with kvm_get_parange(), which has the appropriate logic to ensure the
above requirement. (and the PS field of VTCR_EL2 is already populated
this way).

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.

It is possible for multiple vCPUs to fault on the same IPA and attempt
to resolve the fault. One of the page table walks will actually update
the PTE and the rest will return -EAGAIN per our race detection scheme.
KVM elides the TLB invalidation on the racing threads as the return
value is nonzero.
Before commit a12ab1378a ("KVM: arm64: Use local TLBI on permission
relaxation") KVM always used broadcast TLB invalidations when handling
permission faults, which had the convenient property of making the
stage-2 updates visible to all CPUs in the system. However now we do a
local invalidation, and TLBI elision leads to the vCPU thread faulting
again on the stale entry. Remember that the architecture permits the TLB
to cache translations that precipitate a permission fault.
Invalidate the TLB entry responsible for the permission fault if the
stage-2 descriptor has been relaxed, regardless of which thread actually
did the job.

We currently have a global VTCR_EL2 value for each guest, even
if the guest uses NV. This implies that the guest's own S2 must
fit in the host's. This is odd, for multiple reasons:
- the PARange values and the number of IPA bits don't necessarily
match: you can have 33 bits of IPA space, and yet you can only
describe 32 or 36 bits of PARange
- When userspace set the IPA space, it creates a contract with the
kernel saying "this is the IPA space I'm prepared to handle".
At no point does it constraint the guest's own IPA space as
long as the guest doesn't try to use a [I]PA outside of the
IPA space set by userspace
- We don't even try to hide the value of ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1.PARange.
And then there is the consequence of the above: if a guest tries
to create a S2 that has for input address something that is larger
than the IPA space defined by the host, we inject a fatal exception.
This is no good. For all intent and purposes, a guest should be
able to have the S2 it really wants, as long as the *output* address
of that S2 isn't outside of the IPA space.
For that, we need to have a per-s2_mmu VTCR_EL2 setting, which
allows us to represent the full PARange. Move the vctr field into
the s2_mmu structure, which has no impact whatsoever, except for NV.
Note that once we are able to override ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1.PARange
from userspace, we'll also be able to restrict the size of the
shadow S2 that NV uses.

In system_supports_bti() we use cpus_have_const_cap() to check for
ARM64_HAS_BTI, but this is not necessary and alternative_has_cap_*() or
cpus_have_final_*cap() would be preferable.
For historical reasons, cpus_have_const_cap() is more complicated than
it needs to be. Before cpucaps are finalized, it will perform a bitmap
test of the system_cpucaps bitmap, and once cpucaps are finalized it
will use an alternative branch. This used to be necessary to handle some
race conditions in the window between cpucap detection and the
subsequent patching of alternatives and static branches, where different
branches could be out-of-sync with one another (or w.r.t. alternative
sequences). Now that we use alternative branches instead of static
branches, these are all patched atomically w.r.t. one another, and there
are only a handful of cases that need special care in the window between
cpucap detection and alternative patching.
Due to the above, it would be nice to remove cpus_have_const_cap(), and
migrate callers over to alternative_has_cap_*(), cpus_have_final_cap(),
or cpus_have_cap() depending on when their requirements. This will
remove redundant instructions and improve code generation, and will make
it easier to determine how each callsite will behave before, during, and
after alternative patching.
When CONFIG_ARM64_BTI_KERNEL=y, the ARM64_HAS_BTI cpucap is a strict
boot cpu feature which is detected and patched early on the boot cpu.
All uses guarded by CONFIG_ARM64_BTI_KERNEL happen after the boot CPU
has detected ARM64_HAS_BTI and patched boot alternatives, and hence can
safely use alternative_has_cap_*() or cpus_have_final_boot_cap().
Regardless of CONFIG_ARM64_BTI_KERNEL, all other uses of ARM64_HAS_BTI
happen after system capabilities have been finalized and alternatives
have been patched. Hence these can safely use alternative_has_cap_*) or
cpus_have_final_cap().
This patch splits system_supports_bti() into system_supports_bti() and
system_supports_bti_kernel(), with the former handling where the cpucap
affects userspace functionality, and ther latter handling where the
cpucap affects kernel functionality. The use of cpus_have_const_cap() is
replaced by cpus_have_final_cap() in cpus_have_const_cap, and
cpus_have_final_boot_cap() in system_supports_bti_kernel(). This will
avoid generating code to test the system_cpucaps bitmap and should be
better for all subsequent calls at runtime. The use of
cpus_have_final_cap() and cpus_have_final_boot_cap() will make it easier
to spot if code is chaanged such that these run before the ARM64_HAS_BTI
cpucap is guaranteed to have been finalized.

Much of the arm64 KVM code uses cpus_have_const_cap() to check for
cpucaps, but this is unnecessary and it would be preferable to use
cpus_have_final_cap().
For historical reasons, cpus_have_const_cap() is more complicated than

or cpus_have_cap() depending on when their requirements. This will
remove redundant instructions and improve code generation, and will make
it easier to determine how each callsite will behave before, during, and
after alternative patching.
KVM is initialized after cpucaps have been finalized and alternatives
have been patched. Since commit:
d86de40dec ("arm64: cpufeature: upgrade hyp caps to final")
... use of cpus_have_const_cap() in hyp code is automatically converted
to use cpus_have_final_cap():
| static __always_inline bool cpus_have_const_cap(int num)
| {
| if (is_hyp_code())
| return cpus_have_final_cap(num);
| else if (system_capabilities_finalized())
| return __cpus_have_const_cap(num);
| else
| return cpus_have_cap(num);
| }
Thus, converting hyp code to use cpus_have_final_cap() directly will not
result in any functional change.
Non-hyp KVM code is also not executed until cpucaps have been finalized,
and it would be preferable to extent the same treatment to this code and
use cpus_have_final_cap() directly.
This patch converts instances of cpus_have_const_cap() in KVM-only code
over to cpus_have_final_cap(). As all of this code runs after cpucaps
have been finalized, there should be no functional change as a result of
this patch, but the redundant instructions generated by
cpus_have_const_cap() will be removed from the non-hyp KVM code.

The current implementation of the stage-2 unmap walker traverses
the given range and, as a part of break-before-make, performs
TLB invalidations with a DSB for every PTE. A multitude of this
combination could cause a performance bottleneck on some systems.
Hence, if the system supports FEAT_TLBIRANGE, defer the TLB
invalidations until the entire walk is finished, and then
use range-based instructions to invalidate the TLBs in one go.
Condition deferred TLB invalidation on the system supporting FWB,
as the optimization is entirely pointless when the unmap walker
needs to perform CMOs.
Rename stage2_put_pte() to stage2_unmap_put_pte() as the function
now serves the stage-2 unmap walker specifically, rather than
acting generic.

Currently, during the operations such as a hugepage collapse,
KVM would flush the entire VM's context using 'vmalls12e1is'
TLBI operation. Specifically, if the VM is faulting on many
hugepages (say after dirty-logging), it creates a performance
penalty for the guest whose pages have already been faulted
earlier as they would have to refill their TLBs again.
Instead, leverage kvm_tlb_flush_vmid_range() for table entries.
If the system supports it, only the required range will be
flushed. Else, it'll fallback to the previous mechanism.

Userspace is allowed to select any PAGE_SIZE aligned hva to back guest
memory. This is even the case with hugepages, although it is a rather
suboptimal configuration as PTE level mappings are used at stage-2.
The arm64 page aging handlers have an assumption that the specified
range is exactly one page/block of memory, which in the aforementioned
case is not necessarily true. All together this leads to the WARN() in
kvm_age_gfn() firing.
However, the WARN is only part of the issue as the table walkers visit
at most a single leaf PTE. For hugepage-backed memory in a memslot that
isn't hugepage-aligned, page aging entirely misses accesses to the
hugepage beyond the first page in the memslot.
Add a new walker dedicated to handling page aging MMU notifiers capable
of walking a range of PTEs. Convert kvm(_test)_age_gfn() over to the new
walker and drop the WARN that caught the issue in the first place. The
implementation of this walker was inspired by the test_clear_young()
implementation by Yu Zhao [*], but repurposed to address a bug in the
existing aging implementation.

KVM/arm64 updates for 6.5
- Eager page splitting optimization for dirty logging, optionally
allowing for a VM to avoid the cost of block splitting in the stage-2
fault path.
- Arm FF-A proxy for pKVM, allowing a pKVM host to safely interact with
services that live in the Secure world. pKVM intervenes on FF-A calls
to guarantee the host doesn't misuse memory donated to the hyp or a
pKVM guest.
- Support for running the split hypervisor with VHE enabled, known as
'hVHE' mode. This is extremely useful for testing the split
hypervisor on VHE-only systems, and paves the way for new use cases
that depend on having two TTBRs available at EL2.
- Generalized framework for configurable ID registers from userspace.
KVM/arm64 currently prevents arbitrary CPU feature set configuration
from userspace, but the intent is to relax this limitation and allow
userspace to select a feature set consistent with the CPU.
- Enable the use of Branch Target Identification (FEAT_BTI) in the
hypervisor.
- Use a separate set of pointer authentication keys for the hypervisor
when running in protected mode, as the host is untrusted at runtime.
- Ensure timer IRQs are consistently released in the init failure
paths.
- Avoid trapping CTR_EL0 on systems with Enhanced Virtualization Traps
(FEAT_EVT), as it is a register commonly read from userspace.
- Erratum workaround for the upcoming AmpereOne part, which has broken
hardware A/D state management.
As a consequence of the hVHE series reworking the arm64 software
features framework, the for-next/module-alloc branch from the arm64 tree
comes along for the ride.
