2018-09-20KVM: x86: don't reset root in kvm_mmu_setup()Wei Yang
Here is the code path which shows kvm_mmu_setup() is invoked after kvm_mmu_create(). Since kvm_mmu_setup() is only invoked in this code path, this means the root_hpa and prev_roots are guaranteed to be invalid. And it is not necessary to reset it again. kvm_vm_ioctl_create_vcpu() kvm_arch_vcpu_create() vmx_create_vcpu() kvm_vcpu_init() kvm_arch_vcpu_init() kvm_mmu_create() kvm_arch_vcpu_setup() kvm_mmu_setup() kvm_init_mmu() This patch set reset_roots to false in kmv_mmu_setup().

2018-09-20x86/kvm/lapic: always disable MMIO interface in x2APIC modeVitaly Kuznetsov
When VMX is used with flexpriority disabled (because of no support or if disabled with module parameter) MMIO interface to lAPIC is still available in x2APIC mode while it shouldn't be (kvm-unit-tests): PASS: apic_disable: Local apic enabled in x2APIC mode PASS: apic_disable: CPUID.1H:EDX.APIC[bit 9] is set FAIL: apic_disable: *0xfee00030: 50014 The issue appears because we basically do nothing while switching to x2APIC mode when APIC access page is not used. apic_mmio_{read,write} only check if lAPIC is disabled before proceeding to actual write. When APIC access is virtualized we correctly manipulate with VMX controls in vmx_set_virtual_apic_mode() and we don't get vmexits from memory writes in x2APIC mode so there's no issue. Disabling MMIO interface seems to be easy. The question is: what do we do with these reads and writes? If we add apic_x2apic_mode() check to apic_mmio_in_range() and return -EOPNOTSUPP these reads and writes will go to userspace. When lAPIC is in kernel, Qemu uses this interface to inject MSIs only (see kvm_apic_mem_write() in hw/i386/kvm/apic.c). This somehow works with disabled lAPIC but when we're in xAPIC mode we will get a real injected MSI from every write to lAPIC. Not good. The simplest solution seems to be to just ignore writes to the region and return ~0 for all reads when we're in x2APIC mode. This is what this patch does. However, this approach is inconsistent with what currently happens when flexpriority is enabled: we allocate APIC access page and create KVM memory region so in x2APIC modes all reads and writes go to this pre-allocated page which is, btw, the same for all vCPUs.

2018-09-18ipv6: fix memory leak on dst->_metricsWei Wang
When dst->_metrics and f6i->fib6_metrics share the same memory, both take reference count on the dst_metrics structure. However, when dst is destroyed, ip6_dst_destroy() only invokes dst_destroy_metrics_generic() which does not take care of READONLY metrics and does not release refcnt. This causes memory leak. Similar to ipv4 logic, the fix is to properly release refcnt and free the memory space pointed by dst->_metrics if refcnt becomes 0.
