* kvm-arm64/pmuv3-asahi:
: Support PMUv3 for KVM guests on Apple silicon
:
: Take advantage of some IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED traps available on Apple
: parts to trap-and-emulate the PMUv3 registers on behalf of a KVM guest.
: Constrain the vPMU to a cycle counter and single event counter, as the
: Apple PMU has events that cannot be counted on every counter.
:
: There is a small new interface between the ARM PMU driver and KVM, where
: the PMU driver owns the PMUv3 -> hardware event mappings.

* kvm-arm64/pv-cpuid:
: Paravirtualized implementation ID, courtesy of Shameer Kolothum
:
: Big-little has historically been a pain in the ass to virtualize. The
: implementation ID (MIDR, REVIDR, AIDR) of a vCPU can change at the whim
: of vCPU scheduling. This can be particularly annoying when the guest
: needs to know the underlying implementation to mitigate errata.
:
: "Hyperscalers" face a similar scheduling problem, where VMs may freely
: migrate between hosts in a pool of heterogenous hardware. And yes, our
: server-class friends are equally riddled with errata too.
:
: In absence of an architected solution to this wart on the ecosystem,
: introduce support for paravirtualizing the implementation exposed
: to a VM, allowing the VMM to describe the pool of implementations that a
: VM may be exposed to due to scheduling/migration.
:
: Userspace is expected to intercept and handle these hypercalls using the
: SMCCC filter UAPI, should it choose to do so.

ioremap_prot() currently accepts pgprot_val parameter as an unsigned long,
thus implicitly assuming that pgprot_val and pgprot_t could never be
bigger than unsigned long. But this assumption soon will not be true on
arm64 when using D128 pgtables. In 128 bit page table configuration,
unsigned long is 64 bit, but pgprot_t is 128 bit.
Passing platform abstracted pgprot_t argument is better as compared to
size based data types. Let's change the parameter to directly pass
pgprot_t like another similar helper generic_ioremap_prot().
Without this change in place, D128 configuration does not work on arm64 as
the top 64 bits gets silently stripped when passing the protection value
to this function.

When comparing to the ARM list [1], it appears that several ARM cores
were missing from the lists in spectre_bhb_loop_affected(). Add them.
NOTE: for some of these cores it may not matter since other ways of
clearing the BHB may be used (like the CLRBHB instruction or ECBHB),
but it still seems good to have all the info from ARM's whitepaper
included.

The code for detecting CPUs that are vulnerable to Spectre BHB was
based on a hardcoded list of CPU IDs that were known to be affected.
Unfortunately, the list mostly only contained the IDs of standard ARM
cores. The IDs for many cores that are minor variants of the standard
ARM cores (like many Qualcomm Kyro CPUs) weren't listed. This led the
code to assume that those variants were not affected.
Flip the code on its head and instead assume that a core is vulnerable
if it doesn't have CSV2_3 but is unrecognized as being safe. This
involves creating a "Spectre BHB safe" list.
As of right now, the only CPU IDs added to the "Spectre BHB safe" list
are ARM Cortex A35, A53, A55, A510, and A520. This list was created by
looking for cores that weren't listed in ARM's list [1] as per review
feedback on v2 of this patch [2]. Additionally Brahma A53 is added as
per mailing list feedback [3].
NOTE: this patch will not actually _mitigate_ anyone, it will simply
cause them to report themselves as vulnerable. If any cores in the
system are reported as vulnerable but not mitigated then the whole
system will be reported as vulnerable though the system will attempt
to mitigate with the information it has about the known cores.

For ACPI we'll build the topology from PPTT and we cannot directly
get the SMT number of each core. Instead using a temporary xarray
to record the heterogeneous information (from ACPI_PPTT_ACPI_IDENTICAL)
and SMT information of the first core in its heterogeneous CPU cluster
when building the topology. Then we can know the largest SMT number
in the system. If a homogeneous system's using ACPI 6.2 or later,
all the CPUs should be under the root node of PPTT. There'll be
only one entry in the xarray and all the CPUs in the system will
be assumed identical.
The framework's SMT control provides two interface to the users [1]
through /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control
(Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-system-cpu):
1) enable SMT by writing "on" and disable by "off"
2) enable SMT by writing max_thread_number or disable by writing 1
Both method support to completely disable/enable the SMT cores so both
work correctly for symmetric SMT platform and asymmetric platform with
non-SMT and one type SMT cores like:
core A: 1 thread
core B: X (X!=1) threads
Note that for a theoretically possible multiple SMT-X (X>1) core
platform the SMT control is also supported as expected but only
by writing the "on/off" method.

Address bytes shifted with a single 64 bit page table entry (any page table
level) has been always hard coded as 3 (aka 2^3 = 8). Although intuitive it
is not very readable or easy to reason about. Besides it is going to change
with D128, where each 128 bit page table entry will shift address bytes by
4 (aka 2^4 = 16) instead.
Let's just formalise this address bytes shift value into a new macro called
PTDESC_ORDER establishing a logical abstraction, thus improving readability
as well. While here re-organize EARLY_LEVEL macro along with its dependents
for better clarity. This does not cause any functional change. Also replace
all (PAGE_SHIFT - PTDESC_ORDER) instances with PTDESC_TABLE_SHIFT.

The page table population code in map_range() uses a recursive algorithm
to create the early mappings of the kernel, the DTB and the ID mapped
text and data pages, and this fails to take into account that the way
these page tables may be constructed is not precisely the same at each
level. In particular, block mappings are not permitted at each level,
and the code as it exists today might inadvertently create such a
forbidden block mapping if it were used to map a region of the
appropriate size and alignment.
This never happens in practice, given the limited size of the assets
being mapped by the early boot code. Nonetheless, it would be better if
this code would behave correctly in all circumstances.
So only permit block mappings at level 2, and page mappings at level 3,
for any page size, and use table mappings exclusively at all other
levels. This change should have no impact in practice, but it makes the
code more robust.

We currently have one helper to set a PIRx_ELx's permission field to
a given value, PIRx_ELx_PERM(), and another helper to extract a
permission field from POR_ELx, POR_ELx_IDX(). The naming is pretty
confusing - it isn't clear at all that "_PERM" corresponds to a
setter and "_IDX" to a getter.
This patch aims at improving the situation by using the same
suffixes as FIELD_PREP()/FIELD_GET(), which we have already adopted
for SYS_FIELD_{PREP,GET}():
* PIRx_ELx_PERM_PREP(), POR_ELx_PERM_PREP() create a register value
where the permission field for a given index is set to a given value.
* POR_ELx_PERM_GET() extracts the permission field from a given
register value for a given index.
These helpers are not implemented using FIELD_PREP()/FIELD_GET()
because the mask may not be constant, and they need to be usable in
assembly. They are all defined in asm/sysreg.h, as one would expect
for basic sysreg-related helpers.
Finally the new POR_ELx_PERM_* macros are used for existing
calculations in signal.c and mmu.c.

When KVM is in protected mode, host calls to PSCI are proxied via EL2,
and cold entries from CPU_ON, CPU_SUSPEND, and SYSTEM_SUSPEND bounce
through __kvm_hyp_init_cpu() at EL2 before entering the host kernel's
entry point at EL1. While __kvm_hyp_init_cpu() initializes SPSR_EL2 for
the exception return to EL1, it does not initialize SCTLR_EL1.
Due to this, it's possible to enter EL1 with SCTLR_EL1 in an UNKNOWN
state. In practice this has been seen to result in kernel crashes after
CPU_ON as a result of SCTLR_EL1.M being 1 in violation of the initial
core configuration specified by PSCI.
Fix this by initializing SCTLR_EL1 for cold entry to the host kernel.
As it's necessary to write to SCTLR_EL12 in VHE mode, this
initialization is moved into __kvm_host_psci_cpu_entry() where we can
use write_sysreg_el1().
The remnants of the '__init_el2_nvhe_prepare_eret' macro are folded into
its only caller, as this is clearer than having the macro.

On CPUs without FEAT_E2H0, HCR_EL2.E2H is RES1, but may reset to an
UNKNOWN value out of reset and consequently may not read as 1 unless it
has been explicitly initialized.
We handled this for the head.S boot code in commits:
3944382fa6f22b54 ("arm64: Treat HCR_EL2.E2H as RES1 when ID_AA64MMFR4_EL1.E2H0 is negative")
b3320142f3db9b3f ("arm64: Fix early handling of FEAT_E2H0 not being implemented")
Unfortunately, we forgot to apply a similar fix to the KVM PSCI entry
points used when relaying CPU_ON, CPU_SUSPEND, and SYSTEM SUSPEND. When
KVM is entered via these entry points, the value of HCR_EL2.E2H may be
consumed before it has been initialized (e.g. by the 'init_el2_state'
macro).
Initialize HCR_EL2.E2H early in these paths such that it can be consumed
reliably. The existing code in head.S is factored out into a new
'init_el2_hcr' macro, and this is used in the __kvm_hyp_init_cpu()
function common to all the relevant PSCI entry points.
For clarity, I've tweaked the assembly used to check whether
ID_AA64MMFR4_EL1.E2H0 is negative. The bitfield is extracted as a signed
value, and this is checked with a signed-greater-or-equal (GE) comparison.
As the hyp code will reconfigure HCR_EL2 later in ___kvm_hyp_init(), all
bits other than E2H are initialized to zero in __kvm_hyp_init_cpu().

With ARMv9.5, an implementation supporting Nested Virtualization
is allowed to only support NV2, and to avoid supporting the old
(and useless) ARMv8.3 variant.
This is indicated by ID_AA64MMFR2_EL1.NV being 0 (as if NV wasn't
implemented) and ID_AA64MMFR4_EL1.NV_frac being 1 (indicating that
NV2 is actually supported).
Given that KVM only deals with NV2 and refuses to use the old NV,
detecting NV2 or NV_frac is what we need to enable it.

While searching for a reference CPU within a given policy,
arch_freq_get_on_cpu relies on cpumask_next_wrap to iterate over
all available CPUs and to ensure each is verified only once.
Recent changes to cpumask_next_wrap will handle the latter no more,
so switching to for_each_cpu_wrap, which preserves expected behavior
while ensuring compatibility with the updates.
Not to mention that when iterating over each CPU, using a dedicated
iterator is preferable to an open-coded loop.

Dumping processes with large allocated and mostly not-faulted areas is
very slow.
Borrowing a test case from Tavian Barnes:
int main(void) {
char *mem = mmap(NULL, 1ULL << 40, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_NORESERVE | MAP_PRIVATE, -1, 0);
printf("%p %m\n", mem);
if (mem != MAP_FAILED) {
mem[0] = 1;
}
abort();
}
That's 1TB of almost completely not-populated area.
On my test box it takes 13-14 seconds to dump.
The profile shows:
- 99.89% 0.00% a.out
entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe
do_syscall_64
syscall_exit_to_user_mode
arch_do_signal_or_restart
- get_signal
- 99.89% do_coredump
- 99.88% elf_core_dump
- dump_user_range
- 98.12% get_dump_page
- 64.19% __get_user_pages
- 40.92% gup_vma_lookup
- find_vma
- mt_find
4.21% __rcu_read_lock
1.33% __rcu_read_unlock
- 3.14% check_vma_flags
0.68% vma_is_secretmem
0.61% __cond_resched
0.60% vma_pgtable_walk_end
0.59% vma_pgtable_walk_begin
0.58% no_page_table
- 15.13% down_read_killable
0.69% __cond_resched
13.84% up_read
0.58% __cond_resched
Almost 29% of the time is spent relocking the mmap semaphore between
calls to get_dump_page() which find nothing.
Whacking that results in times of 10 seconds (down from 13-14).
While here make the thing killable.
The real problem is the page-sized iteration and the real fix would
patch it up instead. It is left as an exercise for the mm-familiar
reader.

The generic storage implementation provides the same features as the
custom one. However it can be shared between architectures, making
maintenance easier.
This switch also moves the random state data out of the time data page.
The currently used hardcoded __VDSO_RND_DATA_OFFSET does not take into
account changes to the time data page layout.

Now that the frequency scale factor has been activated for retrieving
current frequency on a given CPU, trigger its update upon entering
idle. This will, to an extent, allow querying last known frequency
in a non-invasive way. It will also improve the frequency scale factor
accuracy when a CPU entering idle did not receive a tick for a while.
As a consequence, for idle cores, the reported frequency will be the
last one observed before entering the idle state.

With the Frequency Invariance Engine (FIE) being already wired up with
sched tick and making use of relevant (core counter and constant
counter) AMU counters, getting the average frequency for a given CPU,
can be achieved by utilizing the frequency scale factor which reflects
an average CPU frequency for the last tick period length.
The solution is partially based on APERF/MPERF implementation of
arch_freq_get_on_cpu.

There are several problems with the way hyp code lazily saves the host's
FPSIMD/SVE state, including:
* Host SVE being discarded unexpectedly due to inconsistent
configuration of TIF_SVE and CPACR_ELx.ZEN. This has been seen to
result in QEMU crashes where SVE is used by memmove(), as reported by
Eric Auger:
https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-68997
* Host SVE state is discarded *after* modification by ptrace, which was an
unintentional ptrace ABI change introduced with lazy discarding of SVE state.
* The host FPMR value can be discarded when running a non-protected VM,
where FPMR support is not exposed to a VM, and that VM uses
FPSIMD/SVE. In these cases the hyp code does not save the host's FPMR
before unbinding the host's FPSIMD/SVE/SME state, leaving a stale
value in memory.
Avoid these by eagerly saving and "flushing" the host's FPSIMD/SVE/SME
state when loading a vCPU such that KVM does not need to save any of the
host's FPSIMD/SVE/SME state. For clarity, fpsimd_kvm_prepare() is
removed and the necessary call to fpsimd_save_and_flush_cpu_state() is
placed in kvm_arch_vcpu_load_fp(). As 'fpsimd_state' and 'fpmr_ptr'
should not be used, they are set to NULL; all uses of these will be
removed in subsequent patches.
Historical problems go back at least as far as v5.17, e.g. erroneous
assumptions about TIF_SVE being clear in commit:
8383741ab2e773a9 ("KVM: arm64: Get rid of host SVE tracking/saving")
... and so this eager save+flush probably needs to be backported to ALL
stable trees.
Fixes: 93ae6b01bafee8fa ("KVM: arm64: Discard any SVE state when entering KVM guests")
Fixes: 8c845e2731041f0f ("arm64/sve: Leave SVE enabled on syscall if we don't context switch")

For the time being, the amu_fie_cpus cpumask is being exclusively used
by the AMU-related internals of FIE support and is guaranteed to be
valid on every access currently made. Still the mask is not being
invalidated on one of the error handling code paths, which leaves
a soft spot with theoretical risk of UAF for CPUMASK_OFFSTACK cases.
To make things sound, delay allocating said cpumask
(for CPUMASK_OFFSTACK) avoiding otherwise nasty sanitising case failing
to register the cpufreq policy notifications.

Add the const qualifier to all the ctl_tables in the tree except for
watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls,
loadpin_sysctl_table and the ones calling register_net_sysctl (./net,
drivers/inifiniband dirs). These are special cases as they use a
registration function with a non-const qualified ctl_table argument or
modify the arrays before passing them on to the registration function.
Constifying ctl_table structs will prevent the modification of
proc_handler function pointers as the arrays would reside in .rodata.
This is made possible after commit 78eb4ea25cd5 ("sysctl: treewide:

Before SLUB initialization, various subsystems used memblock_alloc to
allocate memory. In most cases, when memory allocation fails, an
immediate panic is required. To simplify this behavior and reduce
repetitive checks, introduce `memblock_alloc_or_panic`. This function
ensures that memory allocation failures result in a panic automatically,
improving code readability and consistency across subsystems that require
this behavior.

Pull kthread updates from Frederic Weisbecker:
"Kthreads affinity follow either of 4 existing different patterns:
1) Per-CPU kthreads must stay affine to a single CPU and never
execute relevant code on any other CPU. This is currently handled
by smpboot code which takes care of CPU-hotplug operations.
Affinity here is a correctness constraint.
2) Some kthreads _have_ to be affine to a specific set of CPUs and
can't run anywhere else. The affinity is set through
kthread_bind_mask() and the subsystem takes care by itself to
handle CPU-hotplug operations. Affinity here is assumed to be a
correctness constraint.
3) Per-node kthreads _prefer_ to be affine to a specific NUMA node.
This is not a correctness constraint but merely a preference in
terms of memory locality. kswapd and kcompactd both fall into this
category. The affinity is set manually like for any other task and
CPU-hotplug is supposed to be handled by the relevant subsystem so
that the task is properly reaffined whenever a given CPU from the
node comes up. Also care should be taken so that the node affinity
doesn't cross isolated (nohz_full) cpumask boundaries.
4) Similar to the previous point except kthreads have a _preferred_
affinity different than a node. Both RCU boost kthreads and RCU
exp kworkers fall into this category as they refer to "RCU nodes"
from a distinctly distributed tree.
Currently the preferred affinity patterns (3 and 4) have at least 4
identified users, with more or less success when it comes to handle
CPU-hotplug operations and CPU isolation. Each of which do it in its
own ad-hoc way.
This is an infrastructure proposal to handle this with the following
API changes:
- kthread_create_on_node() automatically affines the created kthread
to its target node unless it has been set as per-cpu or bound with
kthread_bind[_mask]() before the first wake-up.
- kthread_affine_preferred() is a new function that can be called
right after kthread_create_on_node() to specify a preferred
affinity different than the specified node.
When the preferred affinity can't be applied because the possible
targets are offline or isolated (nohz_full), the kthread is affine to
the housekeeping CPUs (which means to all online CPUs most of the time
or only the non-nohz_full CPUs when nohz_full= is set).
kswapd, kcompactd, RCU boost kthreads and RCU exp kworkers have been
converted, along with a few old drivers.
Summary of the changes:
- Consolidate a bunch of ad-hoc implementations of
kthread_run_on_cpu()
- Introduce task_cpu_fallback_mask() that defines the default last
resort affinity of a task to become nohz_full aware
- Add some correctness check to ensure kthread_bind() is always
called before the first kthread wake up.
- Default affine kthread to its preferred node.
- Convert kswapd / kcompactd and remove their halfway working ad-hoc
affinity implementation
- Implement kthreads preferred affinity
- Unify kthread worker and kthread API's style
- Convert RCU kthreads to the new API and remove the ad-hoc affinity
implementation"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace
Pull ftrace updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Have fprobes built on top of function graph infrastructure
The fprobe logic is an optimized kprobe that uses ftrace to attach to
functions when a probe is needed at the start or end of the function.
The fprobe and kretprobe logic implements a similar method as the
function graph tracer to trace the end of the function. That is to
hijack the return address and jump to a trampoline to do the trace
when the function exits. To do this, a shadow stack needs to be
created to store the original return address. Fprobes and function
graph do this slightly differently. Fprobes (and kretprobes) has
slots per callsite that are reserved to save the return address. This
is fine when just a few points are traced. But users of fprobes, such
as BPF programs, are starting to add many more locations, and this
method does not scale.
The function graph tracer was created to trace all functions in the
kernel. In order to do this, when function graph tracing is started,
every task gets its own shadow stack to hold the return address that
is going to be traced. The function graph tracer has been updated to
allow multiple users to use its infrastructure. Now have fprobes be
one of those users. This will also allow for the fprobe and kretprobe
methods to trace the return address to become obsolete. With new
technologies like CFI that need to know about these methods of
hijacking the return address, going toward a solution that has only
one method of doing this will make the kernel less complex.
- Cleanup with guard() and free() helpers
There were several places in the code that had a lot of "goto out" in
the error paths to either unlock a lock or free some memory that was
allocated. But this is error prone. Convert the code over to use the
guard() and free() helpers that let the compiler unlock locks or free
memory when the function exits.
- Remove disabling of interrupts in the function graph tracer
When function graph tracer was first introduced, it could race with
interrupts and NMIs. To prevent that race, it would disable
interrupts and not trace NMIs. But the code has changed to allow NMIs
and also interrupts. This change was done a long time ago, but the
disabling of interrupts was never removed. Remove the disabling of
interrupts in the function graph tracer is it is not needed. This
greatly improves its performance.
- Allow the :mod: command to enable tracing module functions on the
kernel command line.
The function tracer already has a way to enable functions to be
traced in modules by writing ":mod:<module>" into set_ftrace_filter.
That will enable either all the functions for the module if it is
loaded, or if it is not, it will cache that command, and when the
module is loaded that matches <module>, its functions will be
enabled. This also allows init functions to be traced. But currently
events do not have that feature.
Because enabling function tracing can be done very early at boot up
(before scheduling is enabled), the commands that can be done when
function tracing is started is limited. Having the ":mod:" command to
trace module functions as they are loaded is very useful. Update the
kernel command line function filtering to allow it.

Pull interrupt subsystem updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Consolidate the machine_kexec_mask_interrupts() by providing a
generic implementation and replacing the copy & pasta orgy in the
relevant architectures.
- Prevent unconditional operations on interrupt chips during kexec
shutdown, which can trigger warnings in certain cases when the
underlying interrupt has been shut down before.
- Make the enforcement of interrupt handling in interrupt context
unconditionally available, so that it actually works for non x86
related interrupt chips. The earlier enablement for ARM GIC chips set
the required chip flag, but did not notice that the check was hidden
behind a config switch which is not selected by ARM[64].
- Decrapify the handling of deferred interrupt affinity setting.
Some interrupt chips require that affinity changes are made from the
context of handling an interrupt to avoid certain race conditions.
For x86 this was the default, but with interrupt remapping this
requirement was lifted and a flag was introduced which tells the core
code that affinity changes can be done in any context. Unrestricted
affinity changes are the default for the majority of interrupt chips.
RISCV has the requirement to add the deferred mode to one of it's
interrupt controllers, but with the original implementation this
would require to add the any context flag to all other RISC-V
interrupt chips. That's backwards, so reverse the logic and require
that chips, which need the deferred mode have to be marked
accordingly. That avoids chasing the 'sane' chips and marking them.
- Add multi-node support to the Loongarch AVEC interrupt controller
driver.
- The usual tiny cleanups, fixes and improvements all over the place.

:
: The code is pretty convoluted for a bunch of reasons:
:
: - FEAT_NV2 breaks the timer semantics by redirecting HW controls to
: memory, meaning that a guest could setup a timer and never see it
: firing until the next exit
:
: - We go try hard to reflect the timer state in memory, but that's not
: great.
:
: - With FEAT_ECV, we can finally correctly emulate the virtual timer,
: but this emulation is pretty costly
:
: - As a way to make things suck less, we handle timer reads as early as
: possible, and only defer writes to the normal trap handling
:
: - Finally, some implementations are badly broken, and require some
: hand-holding, irrespective of NV support. So we try and reuse the NV
: infrastructure to make them usable. This could be further optimised,
: but I'm running out of patience for this sort of HW.
