Before restoring xstate from the user space buffer, the kernel performs
sanity checks on these magic numbers: magic1 in the software reserved
area, and magic2 at the end of XSAVE region.
The position of magic2 is calculated based on the xstate size derived
from the user space buffer. But, the in-kernel record is directly
available and reliable for this purpose.
This reliance on user space data is also inconsistent with the recent
fix in:
d877550eaf2d ("x86/fpu: Stop relying on userspace for info to fault in xsave buffer")
Simply use fpstate->user_size, and then get rid of unnecessary
size-evaluation code.

14.2
GCC < 14.2 does not correctly propagate address space qualifiers
with -fsanitize=bool,enum. Together with address sanitizer then
causes that load to be sanitized.
Disable named address spaces for GCC < 14.2 when both, UBSAN_BOOL
and KASAN are enabled.

commit c910f2b65518 ("arm64/mm: Update tlb invalidation routines for
FEAT_LPA2") changed the "invalidation level unknown" hint from 0 to
TLBI_TTL_UNKNOWN (INT_MAX). But the fallback "unknown level" path in
flush_hugetlb_tlb_range() was not updated. So as it stands, when trying
to invalidate CONT_PMD_SIZE or CONT_PTE_SIZE hugetlb mappings, we will
spuriously try to invalidate at level 0 on LPA2-enabled systems.
Fix this so that the fallback passes TLBI_TTL_UNKNOWN, and while we are
at it, explicitly use the correct stride and level for CONT_PMD_SIZE and
CONT_PTE_SIZE, which should provide a minor optimization.

arm64 supports multiple huge_pte sizes. Some of the sizes are covered by
a single pte entry at a particular level (PMD_SIZE, PUD_SIZE), and some
are covered by multiple ptes at a particular level (CONT_PTE_SIZE,
CONT_PMD_SIZE). So the function has to figure out the size from the
huge_pte pointer. This was previously done by walking the pgtable to
determine the level and by using the PTE_CONT bit to determine the
number of ptes at the level.
But the PTE_CONT bit is only valid when the pte is present. For
non-present pte values (e.g. markers, migration entries), the previous
implementation was therefore erroneously determining the size. There is
at least one known caller in core-mm, move_huge_pte(), which may call
huge_ptep_get_and_clear() for a non-present pte. So we must be robust to
this case. Additionally the "regular" ptep_get_and_clear() is robust to
being called for non-present ptes so it makes sense to follow the
behavior.
Fix this by using the new sz parameter which is now provided to the
function. Additionally when clearing each pte in a contig range, don't
gather the access and dirty bits if the pte is not present.
An alternative approach that would not require API changes would be to
store the PTE_CONT bit in a spare bit in the swap entry pte for the
non-present case. But it felt cleaner to follow other APIs' lead and
just pass in the size.
As an aside, PTE_CONT is bit 52, which corresponds to bit 40 in the swap
entry offset field (layout of non-present pte). Since hugetlb is never
swapped to disk, this field will only be populated for markers, which
always set this bit to 0 and hwpoison swap entries, which set the offset
field to a PFN; So it would only ever be 1 for a 52-bit PVA system where
memory in that high half was poisoned (I think!). So in practice, this
bit would almost always be zero for non-present ptes and we would only
clear the first entry if it was actually a contiguous block. That's
probably a less severe symptom than if it was always interpreted as 1
and cleared out potentially-present neighboring PTEs.

In order to fix a bug, arm64 needs to be told the size of the huge page
for which the huge_pte is being cleared in huge_ptep_get_and_clear().
Provide for this by adding an `unsigned long sz` parameter to the
function. This follows the same pattern as huge_pte_clear() and
set_huge_pte_at().
This commit makes the required interface modifications to the core mm as
well as all arches that implement this function (arm64, loongarch, mips,
parisc, powerpc, riscv, s390, sparc). The actual arm64 bug will be fixed
in a separate commit.

Mapping the entire structure isn't actually necessary, as we don't ever

Changes efi_mokvar_table_init() to only map each entry header, not the

that each variable name is NUL terminated, rather than attempting to

Some drivers, like tg3, do not set combined-count:
$ ethtool -l enp4s0f1
Channel parameters for enp4s0f1:
Pre-set maximums:
RX: 4
TX: 4
Other: n/a
Combined: n/a
Current hardware settings:
RX: 4
TX: 1
Other: n/a
Combined: n/a
In the case where combined-count is not set, the ethtool netlink code
in the kernel elides the value and the code in the test:
netnl.channels_get(...)
With a tg3 device, the returned dictionary looks like:
{'header': {'dev-index': 3, 'dev-name': 'enp4s0f1'},
'rx-max': 4,
'rx-count': 4,
'tx-max': 4,
'tx-count': 1}
Note that the key 'combined-count' is missing. As a result of this
missing key the test raises an exception:
# Exception| if channels['combined-count'] == 0:
# Exception| ~~~~~~~~^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
# Exception| KeyError: 'combined-count'
Change the test to check if 'combined-count' is a key in the dictionary
first and if not assume that this means the driver has separate RX and
TX queues.
With this change, the test now passes successfully on tg3 and mlx5
(which does have a 'combined-count').

fixes for seg6 and rpl lwtunnels on input
As a follow up to commit 92191dd10730 ("net: ipv6: fix dst ref loops in
rpl, seg6 and ioam6 lwtunnels"), we also need a conditional dst cache on
input for seg6_iptunnel and rpl_iptunnel to prevent dst ref loops (i.e.,
if the packet destination did not change, we may end up recording a
reference to the lwtunnel in its own cache, and the lwtunnel state will
never be freed). This series provides a fix to respectively prevent a
dst ref loop on input in seg6_iptunnel and rpl_iptunnel.

get_this_hybrid_cpu_type() misses a case when cpu-type is populated
regardless of X86_FEATURE_HYBRID_CPU. This is particularly true for hybrid
variants that have P or E cores fused off.
Instead use the cpu-type cached in struct x86_topology, as it does not rely
on hybrid feature to enumerate cpu-type. This can also help avoid the
model-specific fixup get_hybrid_cpu_type(). Also replace the
get_this_hybrid_cpu_native_id() with its cached value in struct
x86_topology.
While at it, remove enum hybrid_cpu_type as it serves no purpose when we
have the exact cpu-types defined in enum intel_cpu_type. Also rename
atom_native_id to intel_native_id and move it to intel-family.h where
intel_cpu_type lives.

Syzbot reports [1] a warning in usb_submit_urb() triggered by
inconsistencies between expected and actually present endpoints
in gl620a driver. Since genelink_bind() does not properly
verify whether specified eps are in fact provided by the device,
in this case, an artificially manufactured one, one may get a
mismatch.
Fix the issue by resorting to a usbnet utility function
usbnet_get_endpoints(), usually reserved for this very problem.
Check for endpoints and return early before proceeding further if
any are missing.

Read side was already fully supported, and with the write side
appropriately punted to the worker queue, all that's needed now is
setting FOP_DONTCACHE in the file_operations structure to enable full
support for read and write uncached IO.
This provides similar benefits to using RWF_DONTCACHE with reads. Testing
buffered writes on 32 files:
writing bs 65536, uncached 0
1s: 196035MB/sec
2s: 132308MB/sec
3s: 132438MB/sec
4s: 116528MB/sec

14s: 114540MB/sec
15s: 115011MB/sec
16s: 115260MB/sec
17s: 116068MB/sec
18s: 116096MB/sec
where it's quite obvious where the page cache filled, and performance
dropped from to about half of where it started, settling in at around
115GB/sec. Meanwhile, 32 kswapds were running full steam trying to
reclaim pages.
Running the same test with uncached buffered writes:
writing bs 65536, uncached 1
1s: 198974MB/sec
2s: 189618MB/sec
3s: 193601MB/sec
4s: 188582MB/sec
5s: 193487MB/sec
6s: 188341MB/sec
7s: 194325MB/sec
8s: 188114MB/sec
9s: 192740MB/sec
10s: 189206MB/sec
11s: 193442MB/sec
12s: 189659MB/sec
13s: 191732MB/sec
14s: 190701MB/sec
15s: 191789MB/sec
16s: 191259MB/sec
17s: 190613MB/sec
18s: 191951MB/sec
and the behavior is fully predictable, performing the same throughout
even after the page cache would otherwise have fully filled with dirty
data. It's also about 65% faster, and using half the CPU of the system
compared to the normal buffered write.

Add iomap buffered write support for RWF_DONTCACHE. If RWF_DONTCACHE is
set for a write, mark the folios being written as uncached. Then
writeback completion will drop the pages. The write_iter handler simply
kicks off writeback for the pages, and writeback completion will take

Temporarily allow the creation of zero length files in efivarfs so the
'fwupd' user space firmware update tool can continue to operate. This
hack should be reverted as soon as the fwupd mechanisms for updating
firmware have been fixed.
fwupd has been coded to open a firmware file, close it, remove the
immutable bit and write to it. Since commit 908af31f4896 ("efivarfs:
fix error on write to new variable leaving remnants") this behaviour
results in the first close removing the file which causes the second
write to fail. To allow fwupd to keep working code up an indicator of
size 1 if a write fails and only remove the file on that condition (so
create at zero size is allowed).

The last Intel machines ith EISA support used a 82375EB PCI/EISA bridge

Moorestown/Medfield/Clovertrail platform, later the 64-bit
Merrifield/Moorefield variants were added, but the final Morganfield
14nm platform was canceled before it hit the market.
To help users understand what the option actually refers to, update the

Ferry confirmed that all the hardware can run 64-bit kernels these days,
but is still testing 32-bit kernels on the Intel Edison board, so this
remains possible, but is guarded by a CONFIG_EXPERT dependency now,

HIGHMEM64G support was added in linux-2.3.25 to support (then)
high-end Pentium Pro and Pentium III Xeon servers with more than 4GB of
addressing, NUMA and PCI-X slots started appearing.
I have found no evidence of this ever being used in regular dual-socket
servers or consumer devices, all the users seem obsolete these days,
even by i386 standards:
- Support for NUMA servers (NUMA-Q, IBM x440, unisys) was already
removed ten years ago.
- 4+ socket non-NUMA servers based on Intel 450GX/450NX, HP F8 and
ServerWorks ServerSet/GrandChampion could theoretically still work
with 8GB, but these were exceptionally rare even 20 years ago and
would have usually been equipped with than the maximum amount of
RAM.
- Some SKUs of the Celeron D from 2004 had 64-bit mode fused off but
could still work in a Socket 775 mainboard designed for the later
Core 2 Duo and 8GB. Apparently most BIOSes at the time only allowed
64-bit CPUs.
- The rare Xeon LV "Sossaman" came on a few motherboards with
registered DDR2 memory support up to 16GB.
- In the early days of x86-64 hardware, there was sometimes the need
to run a 32-bit kernel to work around bugs in the hardware drivers,
or in the syscall emulation for 32-bit userspace. This likely still
works but there should never be a need for this any more.
PAE mode is still required to get access to the 'NX' bit on Atom
'Pentium M' and 'Core Duo' CPUs.

The x86 CPU selection menu is confusing for a number of reasons:
When configuring 32-bit kernels, it shows a small number of early 64-bit
microarchitectures (K8, Core 2) but not the regular generic 64-bit target
that is the normal default. There is no longer a reason to run 32-bit
kernels on production 64-bit systems, so only actual 32-bit CPUs need
to be shown here.
When configuring 64-bit kernels, the options also pointless as there is
no way to pick any CPU from the past 15 years, leaving GENERIC_CPU as
the only sensible choice.
Address both of the above by removing the obsolete options and making
all 64-bit kernels run on both Intel and AMD CPUs from any generation.
Testing generic 32-bit kernels on 64-bit hardware remains possible,
just not building a 32-bit kernel that requires a 64-bit CPU.

Building an x86-64 kernel with CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU is documented to
run on all CPUs, but the Makefile does not actually pass an -march=
argument, instead relying on the default that was used to configure
the toolchain.
In many cases, gcc will be configured to -march=x86-64 or -march=k8
for maximum compatibility, but in other cases a distribution default
may be either raised to a more recent ISA, or set to -march=native
to build for the CPU used for compilation. This still works in the
case of building a custom kernel for the local machine.
The point where it breaks down is building a kernel for another
machine that is older the the default target. Changing the default
to -march=x86-64 would make it work reliable, but possibly produce
worse code on distros that intentionally default to a newer ISA.
To allow reliably building a kernel for either the oldest x86-64
CPUs, pass the -march=x86-64 flag to the compiler. This was not
possible in early versions of x86-64 gcc, but works on all currently
supported versions down to at least gcc-5.

The x86-32 kernel used to support multiple platforms with more than eight
logical CPUs, from the 1999-2003 timeframe: Sequent NUMA-Q, IBM Summit,
Unisys ES7000 and HP F8. Support for all except the latter was dropped
back in 2014, leaving only the F8 based DL740 and DL760 G2 machines in
this catery, with up to eight single-core Socket-603 Xeon-MP processors
with hyperthreading.
Like the already removed machines, the HP F8 servers at the time cost
upwards of $100k in typical configurations, but were quickly obsoleted
by their 64-bit Socket-604 cousins and the AMD Opteron.
Earlier servers with up to 8 Pentium Pro or Xeon processors remain
fully supported as they had no hyperthreading. Similarly, the more
common 4-socket Xeon-MP machines with hyperthreading using Intel
or ServerWorks chipsets continue to work without this, and all the
multi-core Xeon processors also run 64-bit kernels.
While the "bigsmp" support can also be used to run on later 64-bit
machines (including VM guests), it seems best to discourage that
and get any remaining users to update their kernels to 64-bit builds
on these. As a side-effect of this, there is also no more need to
support NUMA configurations on 32-bit x86, as all true 32-bit
NUMA platforms are already gone.

X86_FEATURE_USE_IBPB was introduced in:
2961298efe1e ("x86/cpufeatures: Clean up Spectre v2 related CPUID flags")
to have separate flags for when the CPU supports IBPB (i.e. X86_FEATURE_IBPB)
and when an IBPB is actually used to mitigate Spectre v2.
Ever since then, the uses of IBPB expanded. The name became confusing
because it does not control all IBPB executions in the kernel.
Furthermore, because its name is generic and it's buried within
indirect_branch_prediction_barrier(), it's easy to use it not knowing
that it is specific to Spectre v2.
X86_FEATURE_USE_IBPB is no longer needed because all the IBPB executions
it used to control are now controlled through other means (e.g.
switch_mm_*_ibpb static branches).
Remove the unused feature bit.

On synthesized nested VM-exits in VMX, an IBPB is performed if IBRS is
advertised to the guest to properly provide separate prediction domains
for L1 and L2. However, this is currently conditional on
X86_FEATURE_USE_IBPB, which depends on the host spectre_v2_user
mitigation.
In short, if spectre_v2_user=no, IBRS is not virtualized correctly and
L1 becomes susceptible to attacks from L2. Fix this by performing the
IBPB regardless of X86_FEATURE_USE_IBPB.

Instead of using X86_FEATURE_USE_IBPB to guard the IBPB execution in KVM
when a new vCPU is loaded, introduce a static branch, similar to
switch_mm_*_ibpb.
This makes it obvious in spectre_v2_user_select_mitigation() what
exactly is being toggled, instead of the unclear X86_FEATURE_USE_IBPB
(which will be shortly removed). It also provides more fine-grained
control, making it simpler to change/add paths that control the IBPB in
the vCPU switch path without affecting other IBPBs.

If X86_FEATURE_USE_IBPB is not set, then both spectre_v2_user_ibpb and
spectre_v2_user_stibp are set to SPECTRE_V2_USER_NONE in
spectre_v2_user_select_mitigation(). Since ib_prctl_set() already checks
for this before performing the IBPB, the X86_FEATURE_USE_IBPB check is
redundant. Remove it.

The check is performed when either switch_mm_cond_ibpb or
switch_mm_always_ibpb is set. In both cases, X86_FEATURE_USE_IBPB is
always set. Remove the redundant check.

indirect_branch_prediction_barrier() only performs the MSR write if
X86_FEATURE_USE_IBPB is set, using alternative_msr_write(). In
preparation for removing X86_FEATURE_USE_IBPB, move the feature check
into the callers so that they can be addressed one-by-one, and use
X86_FEATURE_IBPB instead to guard the MSR write.
