When we have virtio enabled, we must have real barriers since we
may be running on an SMP machine (quite likely are, in fact), so
the other process can be on another CPU.
Since in any other case we don't really use DMA barriers, remove
their override completely so real barriers will get used. In the
future we might need them for other cases as well.

We currently do the time updates in the timer handler, even if
we just call the timer handler ourselves. In basic mode we must
in fact do it there since otherwise the OS timer signal won't
move time forward, but in inf-cpu mode we don't need to, and
it's harder to understand.
Restrict the update there to basic mode, adding a comment, and
do it before calling the timer_handler() in inf-cpu mode.

Periodic timers are broken, because the also only fire once.
As it happens, Linux doesn't care because it only sets the
timer to periodic very briefly during boot, and then switches
it only between one-shot and off later.
Nevertheless, fix the logic (we shouldn't even be looking at
time_travel_timer_expiry unless the timer is enabled) and
change the code to fire the timer periodically in periodic
mode, in case it ever gets used in the future.

We do need to call the constructors for *modules*, and
at least for KASAN in the future, we must call even the
kernel constructors only later when the kernel has been
initialized.
Instead of relying on libc to call them, emit an empty
section for libc and let the kernel's CONSTRUCTORS code
do the rest of the job.
Tested that it indeed doesn't work in modules, and does
work after the fixes in both, with a few functions with
__attribute__((constructor)) in both dynamic and static
builds.

UML enables TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT but doesn't actually implement
it. It seems to have been added for lockdep support, but that can't
actually really work well without IRQ flags tracing, as is also
very noisily reported when enabling CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP.
Implement it now.

With the addition of bess support which uses connection
oriented SEQPACKET sockets the vector routines can now
encounter a "remote end closed the connection" scenario.
This adds handling code to detect it in the TX path and
the legacy RX path. There is no way to detect it in the
vector RX path because that can legitimately return 0
even if the remote end has not closed the connection. As
a result the detection is delayed until the first TX
event after the close.

This helps preventing a BUG* or WARN* in some static inline from
preventing that (or one of its callers) being inlined, so should allow
gcc to make better informed inlining decisions.
For example, with gcc 9.2, tcp_fastopen_no_cookie() vanishes from
net/ipv4/tcp_fastopen.o. It does not itself have any BUG or WARN, but
it calls dst_metric() which has a WARN_ON_ONCE - and despite that
WARN_ON_ONCE vanishing since the condition is compile-time false,
dst_metric() is apparently sufficiently "large" that when it gets
inlined into tcp_fastopen_no_cookie(), the latter becomes too large
for inlining.
Overall, if one asks size(1), .text decreases a little and .data
increases by about the same amount (x86-64 defconfig)

Most, if not all, uses of the alternative* family just provide one or
two instructions in .text, but the string literal can be quite large,
causing gcc to overestimate the size of the generated code. That in
turn affects its decisions about inlining of the function containing
the alternative() asm statement.
New enough versions of gcc allow one to overrule the estimated size by
using "asm inline" instead of just "asm". So replace asm by the helper
asm_inline, which for older gccs just expands to asm.

"The main change here is a revert of reverts. We recently simplified
some code that was thought unnecessary; however, since then KVM has
grown quite a few cond_resched()s and for that reason the simplified
code is prone to livelocks---one CPUs tries to empty a list of guest
page tables while the others keep adding to them. This adds back the
generation-based zapping of guest page tables, which was not
unnecessary after all.
On top of this, there is a fix for a kernel memory leak and a couple

Pull RISC-V fix from Paul Walmsley:
"Last week, Palmer and I learned that there was an error in the RISC-V
kernel image header format that could make it less compatible with the
ARM64 kernel image header format. I had missed this error during my
original reviews of the patch.
The kernel image header format is an interface that impacts
bootloaders, QEMU, and other user tools. Those packages must be
updated to align with whatever is merged in the kernel. We would like
to avoid proliferating these image formats by keeping the RISC-V
header as close as possible to the existing ARM64 header. Since the
arch/riscv patch that adds support for the image header was merged
with our v5.3-rc1 pull request as commit 0f327f2aaad6a ("RISC-V: Add
an Image header that boot loader can parse."), we think it wise to try
to fix this error before v5.3 is released.
The fix itself should be backwards-compatible with any project that
has already merged support for premature versions of this interface.
It primarily involves ensuring that the RISC-V image header has
something useful in the same field as the ARM64 image header"

James Harvey reported a livelock that was introduced by commit
d012a06ab1d23 ("Revert "KVM: x86/mmu: Zap only the relevant pages when
removing a memslot"").
The livelock occurs because kvm_mmu_zap_all() as it exists today will
voluntarily reschedule and drop KVM's mmu_lock, which allows other vCPUs
to add shadow pages. With enough vCPUs, kvm_mmu_zap_all() can get stuck
in an infinite loop as it can never zap all pages before observing lock
contention or the need to reschedule. The equivalent of kvm_mmu_zap_all()
that was in use at the time of the reverted commit (4e103134b8623, "KVM:
x86/mmu: Zap only the relevant pages when removing a memslot") employed
a fast invalidate mechanism and was not susceptible to the above livelock.
There are three ways to fix the livelock:
- Reverting the revert (commit d012a06ab1d23) is not a viable option as
the revert is needed to fix a regression that occurs when the guest has
one or more assigned devices. It's unlikely we'll root cause the device
assignment regression soon enough to fix the regression timely.
- Remove the conditional reschedule from kvm_mmu_zap_all(). However, although
removing the reschedule would be a smaller code change, it's less safe
in the sense that the resulting kvm_mmu_zap_all() hasn't been used in
the wild for flushing memslots since the fast invalidate mechanism was
introduced by commit 6ca18b6950f8d ("KVM: x86: use the fast way to
invalidate all pages"), back in 2013.
- Reintroduce the fast invalidate mechanism and use it when zapping shadow
pages in response to a memslot being deleted/moved, which is what this
patch does.
For all intents and purposes, this is a revert of commit ea145aacf4ae8
("Revert "KVM: MMU: fast invalidate all pages"") and a partial revert of
commit 7390de1e99a70 ("Revert "KVM: x86: use the fast way to invalidate
all pages""), i.e. restores the behavior of commit 5304b8d37c2a5 ("KVM:
MMU: fast invalidate all pages") and commit 6ca18b6950f8d ("KVM: x86:
use the fast way to invalidate all pages") respectively.

Emulation of VMPTRST can incorrectly inject a page fault
when passed an operand that points to an MMIO address.
The page fault will use uninitialized kernel stack memory
as the CR2 and error code.
The right behavior would be to abort the VM with a KVM_EXIT_INTERNAL_ERROR
exit to userspace; however, it is not an easy fix, so for now just ensure
that the error code and CR2 are zero.

Part of the intention during the definition of the RISC-V kernel image
header was to lay the groundwork for a future merge with the ARM64
image header. One error during my original review was not noticing
that the RISC-V header's "magic" field was at a different size and
position than the ARM64's "magic" field. If the existing ARM64 Image
header parsing code were to attempt to parse an existing RISC-V kernel
image header format, it would see a magic number 0. This is
undesirable, since it's our intention to align as closely as possible
with the ARM64 header format. Another problem was that the original
"res3" field was not being initialized correctly to zero.
Address these issues by creating a 32-bit "magic2" field in the RISC-V
header which matches the ARM64 "magic" field. RISC-V binaries will
store "RSC\x05" in this field. The intention is that the use of the
existing 64-bit "magic" field in the RISC-V header will be deprecated
over time. Increment the minor version number of the file format to
indicate this change, and update the documentation accordingly. Fix
the assembler directives in head.S to ensure that reserved fields are
properly zero-initialized.

OPAL loads kernel & initrd at 512MB offset (256MB size), also exported
as ibm,opal/dump/fw-load-area. So, if boot memory size of FADump is
less than 768MB, kernel memory to be exported as '/proc/vmcore' would
be overwritten by f/w while loading kernel & initrd. To avoid such a
scenario, enforce a minimum boot memory size of 768MB on OPAL platform
and skip using FADump if a newer F/W version loads kernel & initrd
above 768MB.
Also, irrespective of RMA size, set the minimum boot memory size
expected on pseries platform at 320MB. This is to avoid inflating the
minimum memory requirements on systems with 512M/1024M RMA size.

Add a new kernel config option, CONFIG_PRESERVE_FA_DUMP that ensures
that crash data, from previously crash'ed kernel, is preserved. This
helps in cases where FADump is not enabled but the subsequent memory
preserving kernel boot is likely to process this crash data. One
typical usecase for this config option is petitboot kernel.
As OPAL allows registering address with it in the first kernel and
retrieving it after MPIPL, use it to store the top of boot memory.
A kernel that intends to preserve crash data retrieves it and avoids
using memory beyond this address.

If all kernel boot memory regions are not registered for MPIPL before
system crashes, try processing the partial crashdump but warn the user
before proceeding.

Add support in the kernel to process the crash'ed kernel's memory
preserved during MPIPL and export it as /proc/vmcore file for the
userland scripts to filter and analyze it later.

Firmware uses a 32-bit field for size while copying/backing-up memory
during MPIPL. So, the maximum value that could be represented with
a PAGE_SIZE aligned 32-bit field will be the maximum copy size for a
region but FADump capture kernel usually needs more memory than that
to be preserved to avoid running into out of memory errors.
So, request firmware to copy multiple kernel boot memory regions
instead of just one (which worked fine for pseries as 64-bit field
was used for size there).

During kexec boot, metadata address needs to be reset to avoid running
into errors interpreting stale metadata address, in case the kexec'ed
kernel crashes before metadata address could be setup again.

OPAL allows registering address with it in the first kernel and
retrieving it after MPIPL. Setup kernel metadata and register its
address with OPAL to use it for processing the crash dump.
