Pull KVM fixes from Paolo Bonzini:
"ARM:
- Avoid use of uninitialized memcache pointer in user_mem_abort()
- Always set HCR_EL2.xMO bits when running in VHE, allowing
interrupts to be taken while TGE=0 and fixing an ugly bug on
AmpereOne that occurs when taking an interrupt while clearing the
xMO bits (AC03_CPU_36)
- Prevent VMMs from hiding support for AArch64 at any EL virtualized
by KVM
- Save/restore the host value for HCRX_EL2 instead of restoring an
incorrect fixed value
- Make host_stage2_set_owner_locked() check that the entire requested
range is memory rather than just the first page
RISC-V:
- Add missing reset of smstateen CSRs
x86:
- Forcibly leave SMM on SHUTDOWN interception on AMD CPUs to avoid
causing problems due to KVM stuffing INIT on SHUTDOWN (KVM needs to
sanitize the VMCB as its state is undefined after SHUTDOWN,
emulating INIT is the least awful choice).
- Track the valid sync/dirty fields in kvm_run as a u64 to ensure KVM
KVM doesn't goof a sanity check in the future.
- Free obsolete roots when (re)loading the MMU to fix a bug where
pre-faulting memory can get stuck due to always encountering a
stale root.
- When dumping GHCB state, use KVM's snapshot instead of the raw GHCB
page to print state, so that KVM doesn't print stale/wrong
information.
- When changing memory attributes (e.g. shared <=> private), add
potential hugepage ranges to the mmu_invalidate_range_{start,end}
set so that KVM doesn't create a shared/private hugepage when the
the corresponding attributes will become mixed (the attributes are
commited *after* KVM finishes the invalidation).
- Rework the SRSO mitigation to enable BP_SPEC_REDUCE only when KVM
has at least one active VM. Effectively BP_SPEC_REDUCE when KVM is
loaded led to very measurable performance regressions for non-KVM
workloads"

In order to point out to the unsuspecting KVM hacker that they
are missing something somewhere, validate that the known FGT bits
do not intersect with the corresponding RES0 mask, as computed at
boot time.
THis check is also performed at boot time, ensuring that there is
no runtime overhead.

Defining the FGU behaviour is extremely tedious. It relies on matching
each set of bits from FGT registers with am architectural feature, and
adding them to the FGU list if the corresponding feature isn't advertised
to the guest.
It is however relatively easy to dump most of that information from
the architecture JSON description, and use that to control the FGU bits.
Let's introduce a new set of tables descripbing the mapping between
FGT bits and features. Most of the time, this is only a lookup in
an idreg field, with a few more complex exceptions.
While this is obviously many more lines in a new file, this is
mostly generated, and is pretty easy to maintain.

Because the kernel can't tolerate page faults for kernel mappings, when
setting a valid, kernel space pte (or pmd/pud/p4d/pgd), it emits a
dsb(ishst) to ensure that the store to the pgtable is observed by the
table walker immediately. Additionally it emits an isb() to ensure that
any already speculatively determined invalid mapping fault gets
canceled.
We can improve the performance of vmalloc operations by batching these
barriers until the end of a set of entry updates.
arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode() and arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode() provide the
required hooks.
vmalloc improves by up to 30% as a result.
Two new TIF_ flags are created; TIF_LAZY_MMU tells us if the task is in
the lazy mode and can therefore defer any barriers until exit from the
lazy mode. TIF_LAZY_MMU_PENDING is used to remember if any pte operation
was performed while in the lazy mode that required barriers. Then when
leaving lazy mode, if that flag is set, we emit the barriers.
Since arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode() and arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode() are used
for both user and kernel mappings, we need the second flag to avoid
emitting barriers unnecessarily if only user mappings were updated.

Implement the required arch functions to enable use of contpte in the
vmap when VM_ALLOW_HUGE_VMAP is specified. This speeds up vmap
operations due to only having to issue a DSB and ISB per contpte block
instead of per pte. But it also means that the TLB pressure reduces due
to only needing a single TLB entry for the whole contpte block.
Since vmap uses set_huge_pte_at() to set the contpte, that API is now
used for kernel mappings for the first time. Although in the vmap case
we never expect it to be called to modify a valid mapping so
clear_flush() should never be called, it's still wise to make it robust
for the kernel case, so amend the tlb flush function if the mm is for
kernel space.
Tested with vmalloc performance selftests:

set_ptes_anysz() previously called __set_pte() for each PTE in the
range, which would conditionally issue a DSB and ISB to make the new PTE
value immediately visible to the table walker if the new PTE was valid
and for kernel space.
We can do better than this; let's hoist those barriers out of the loop
so that they are only issued once at the end of the loop. We then reduce
the cost by the number of PTEs in the range.

Refactor __set_ptes(), set_pmd_at() and set_pud_at() so that they are
all a thin wrapper around a new common __set_ptes_anysz(), which takes
pgsize parameter. Additionally, refactor __ptep_get_and_clear() and
pmdp_huge_get_and_clear() to use a new common
__ptep_get_and_clear_anysz() which also takes a pgsize parameter.
These changes will permit the huge_pte API to efficiently batch-set
pgtable entries and take advantage of the future barrier optimizations.
Additionally since the new *_anysz() helpers call the correct
page_table_check_*_set() API based on pgsize, this means that huge_ptes
will be able to get proper coverage. Currently the huge_pte API always
uses the pte API which assumes an entry only covers a single page.

When operating on contiguous blocks of ptes (or pmds) for some hugetlb
sizes, we must honour break-before-make requirements and clear down the
block to invalid state in the pgtable then invalidate the relevant tlb
entries before making the pgtable entries valid again.
However, the tlb maintenance is currently always done assuming the worst
case stride (PAGE_SIZE), last_level (false) and tlb_level
(TLBI_TTL_UNKNOWN). We can do much better with the hinting; In reality,
we know the stride from the huge_pte pgsize, we are always operating
only on the last level, and we always know the tlb_level, again based on
pgsize. So let's start providing these hints.
Additionally, avoid tlb maintenace in set_huge_pte_at().
Break-before-make is only required if we are transitioning the
contiguous pte block from valid -> valid. So let's elide the
clear-and-flush ("break") if the pte range was previously invalid.

In a few places we want to transition a task from streaming mode to
non-streaming mode, e.g. signal delivery where we historically tried to
use an SMSTOP SM instruction.
Add a new helper to manipulate a task's state in the same way as an
SMSTOP SM instruction. I have not added a corresponding helper to
simulate the effects of SMSTART SM. Only ptrace transitions a task into
streaming mode, and ptrace has distinct semantics for such transitions.
Per ARM DDI 0487 L.a, section B1.4.6:
| RRSWFQ
| When the Effective value of PSTATE.SM is changed by any method from 0
| to 1, an entry to Streaming SVE mode is performed, and all implemented
| bits of Streaming SVE register state are set to zero.
| RKFRQZ
| When the Effective value of PSTATE.SM is changed by any method from 1
| to 0, an exit from Streaming SVE mode is performed, and in the

| registers, SVE predicate registers, and FFR, are set to zero.
Per ARM DDI 0487 L.a, section C5.2.9:
| On entry to or exit from Streaming SVE mode, FPMR is set to 0
Per ARM DDI 0487 L.a, section C5.2.10:

| IXC, IDC, QC} are set to 1 and the remaining bits are set to 0.
This means bits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, and 27 respectively, i.e. 0x0800009f

In subsequent patches we'll need to determine the SVE/SME state size for
a given SVE VL and SME VL regardless of whether a task is currently
configured with those VLs. Split the sizing logic out of
sve_state_size() and sme_state_size() so that we don't need to open-code
this logic elsewhere.
At the same time, apply minor cleanups:
* Move sve_state_size() into fpsimd.h, matching the placement of
sme_state_size().
* Remove the feature checks from sve_state_size(). We only call
sve_state_size() when at least one of SVE and SME are supported, and
when either of the two is not supported, the task's corresponding
SVE/SME vector length will be zero.

The sve_sync_{to,from}_fpsimd*() functions are intended to
extract/insert the currently effective FPSIMD state of a task regardless
of whether the task's state is saved in FPSIMD format or SVE format.
Historically they were only used by ptrace, but sve_sync_to_fpsimd() is
now used more widely, and sve_sync_from_fpsimd_zeropad() may be used
more widely in future.
When FPSIMD/SVE state tracking was changed across commits:
baa8515281b3 ("arm64/fpsimd: Track the saved FPSIMD state type separately to TIF_SVE")
a0136be443d5 (arm64/fpsimd: Load FP state based on recorded data type")
bbc6172eefdb ("arm64/fpsimd: SME no longer requires SVE register state")
8c845e273104 ("arm64/sve: Leave SVE enabled on syscall if we don't context switch")
... sve_sync_to_fpsimd() was updated to consider task->thread.fp_type
rather than the task's TIF_SVE and PSTATE.SM, but (apparently due to an
oversight) sve_sync_from_fpsimd_zeropad() was left as-is, leaving the
two inconsistent.
Due to this, sve_sync_from_fpsimd_zeropad() may copy state from
task->thread.uw.fpsimd_state into task->thread.sve_state when
task->thread.fp_type == FP_STATE_FPSIMD. This is redundant (but benign)
as task->thread.uw.fpsimd_state is the effective state that will be
restored, and task->thread.sve_state will not be consumed. For
consistency, and to avoid the redundant work, it better for
sve_sync_from_fpsimd_zeropad() to consider task->thread.fp_type alone,
matching sve_sync_to_fpsimd().
The naming of both functions is somehat unfortunate, as it is unclear
when and why they copy state. It would be better to describe them in
terms of the effective state.
Considering all of the above, clean this up:
* Adjust sve_sync_from_fpsimd_zeropad() to consider
task->thread.fp_type.
* Update comments to clarify the intended semantics/usage. I've removed
the description that task->thread.sve_state must have been allocated,
as this is only necessary when task->thread.fp_type == FP_STATE_SVE,
which itself implies that task->thread.sve_state must have been
allocated.
* Rename the functions to more clearly indicate when/why they copy
state:
- sve_sync_to_fpsimd() => fpsimd_sync_from_effective_state()
- sve_sync_from_fpsimd_zeropad => fpsimd_sync_to_effective_state_zeropad()

Partial writes to the NT_ARM_SVE and NT_ARM_SSVE regsets using an
payload are handled inconsistently and non-deterministically. A comment
within sve_set_common() indicates that we intended that a partial write
would preserve any effective FPSIMD/SVE state which was not overwritten,
but this has never worked consistently, and during syscalls the FPSIMD
vector state may be non-deterministically preserved and may be
erroneously migrated between streaming and non-streaming SVE modes.
The simplest fix is to handle a partial write by consistently zeroing
the remaining state. As detailed below I do not believe this will
adversely affect any real usage.
Neither GDB nor LLDB attempt partial writes to these regsets, and the
documentation (in Documentation/arch/arm64/sve.rst) has always indicated
that state preservation was not guaranteed, as is says:
| The effect of writing a partial, incomplete payload is unspecified.
When the logic was originally introduced in commit:
43d4da2c45b2 ("arm64/sve: ptrace and ELF coredump support")
... there were two potential behaviours, depending on TIF_SVE:
* When TIF_SVE was clear, all SVE state would be zeroed, excluding the
low 128 bits of vectors shared with FPSIMD, FPSR, and FPCR.
* When TIF_SVE was set, all SVE state would be zeroed, including the
low 128 bits of vectors shared with FPSIMD, but excluding FPSR and
FPCR.
Note that as writing to NT_ARM_SVE would set TIF_SVE, partial writes to
NT_ARM_SVE would not be idempotent, and if a first write preserved the
low 128 bits, a subsequent (potentially identical) partial write would
discard the low 128 bits.
When support for the NT_ARM_SSVE regset was added in commit:
e12310a0d30f ("arm64/sme: Implement ptrace support for streaming mode SVE registers")
... the above behaviour was retained for writes to the NT_ARM_SVE
regset, though writes to the NT_ARM_SSVE would always zero the SVE
registers and would not inherit FPSIMD register state. This happened as
fpsimd_sync_to_sve() only copied the FPSIMD regs when TIF_SVE was clear
and PSTATE.SM==0.
Subsequently, when FPSIMD/SVE state tracking was changed across commits:
baa8515281b3 ("arm64/fpsimd: Track the saved FPSIMD state type separately to TIF_SVE")
a0136be443d5 (arm64/fpsimd: Load FP state based on recorded data type")
bbc6172eefdb ("arm64/fpsimd: SME no longer requires SVE register state")
8c845e273104 ("arm64/sve: Leave SVE enabled on syscall if we don't context switch")
... there was no corresponding update to the ptrace code, nor to
fpsimd_sync_to_sve(), which stil considers TIF_SVE and PSTATE.SM rather
than the saved fp_type. The saved state can be in the FPSIMD format
regardless of whether TIF_SVE is set or clear, and the saved type can
change non-deterministically during syscalls. Consequently a subsequent
partial write to the NT_ARM_SVE or NT_ARM_SSVE regsets may
non-deterministically preserve the FPSIMD state, and may migrate this
state between streaming and non-streaming modes.
Clean this up by never attempting to preserve ANY state when writing an
SVE payload to the NT_ARM_SVE/NT_ARM_SSVE regsets, zeroing all relevant
state including FPSR and FPCR. This simplifies the code, makes the
behaviour deterministic, and avoids migrating state between streaming
and non-streaming modes. As above, I do not believe this should
adversely affect existing userspace applications.
At the same time, remove fpsimd_sync_to_sve(). It is no longer used,
doesn't do what its documentation implies, and gets in the way of other
cleanups and fixes.

Historically SVE state was discarded deterministically early in the
syscall entry path, before ptrace is notified of syscall entry. This
permitted ptrace to modify SVE state before and after the "real" syscall
logic was executed, with the modified state being retained.
This behaviour was changed by commit:
8c845e2731041f0f ("arm64/sve: Leave SVE enabled on syscall if we don't context switch")
That commit was intended to speed up workloads that used SVE by
opportunistically leaving SVE enabled when returning from a syscall.
The syscall entry logic was modified to truncate the SVE state without
disabling userspace access to SVE, and fpsimd_save_user_state() was
modified to discard userspace SVE state whenever
in_syscall(current_pt_regs()) is true, i.e. when
current_pt_regs()->syscallno != NO_SYSCALL.
Leaving SVE enabled opportunistically resulted in a couple of changes to
userspace visible behaviour which weren't described at the time, but are
logical consequences of opportunistically leaving SVE enabled:
* Signal handlers can observe the type of saved state in the signal's
sve_context record. When the kernel only tracks FPSIMD state, the 'vq'
field is 0 and there is no space allocated for register contents. When
the kernel tracks SVE state, the 'vq' field is non-zero and the
register contents are saved into the record.
As a result of the above commit, 'vq' (and the presence of SVE
register state) is non-deterministically zero or non-zero for a period
of time after a syscall. The effective register state is still
deterministic.
Hopefully no-one relies on this being deterministic. In general,
handlers for asynchronous events cannot expect a deterministic state.
* Similarly to signal handlers, ptrace requests can observe the type of
saved state in the NT_ARM_SVE and NT_ARM_SSVE regsets, as this is
exposed in the header flags. As a result of the above commit, this is
now in a non-deterministic state after a syscall. The effective
register state is still deterministic.
Hopefully no-one relies on this being deterministic. In general,
debuggers would have to handle this changing at arbitrary points
during program flow.
Discarding the SVE state within fpsimd_save_user_state() resulted in
other changes to userspace visible behaviour which are not desirable:
* A ptrace tracer can modify (or create) a tracee's SVE state at syscall
entry or syscall exit. As a result of the above commit, the tracee's
SVE state can be discarded non-deterministically after modification,
rather than being retained as it previously was.
Note that for co-operative tracer/tracee pairs, the tracer may
(re)initialise the tracee's state arbitrarily after the tracee sends
itself an initial SIGSTOP via a syscall, so this affects realistic
design patterns.
* The current_pt_regs()->syscallno field can be modified via ptrace, and
can be altered even when the tracee is not really in a syscall,
causing non-deterministic discarding to occur in situations where this
was not previously possible.
Further, using current_pt_regs()->syscallno in this way is unsound:
* There are data races between readers and writers of the
current_pt_regs()->syscallno field.
The current_pt_regs()->syscallno field is written in interruptible
task context using plain C accesses, and is read in irq/softirq
context using plain C accesses. These accesses are subject to data
races, with the usual concerns with tearing, etc.
* Writes to current_pt_regs()->syscallno are subject to compiler
reordering.
As current_pt_regs()->syscallno is written with plain C accesses,
the compiler is free to move those writes arbitrarily relative to
anything which doesn't access the same memory location.
In theory this could break signal return, where prior to restoring the
SVE state, restore_sigframe() calls forget_syscall(). If the write
were hoisted after restore of some SVE state, that state could be
discarded unexpectedly.
In practice that reordering cannot happen in the absence of LTO (as
cross compilation-unit function calls happen prevent this reordering),
and that reordering appears to be unlikely in the presence of LTO.
Additionally, since commit:
f130ac0ae4412dbe ("arm64: syscall: unmask DAIF earlier for SVCs")
... DAIF is unmasked before el0_svc_common() sets regs->syscallno to the
real syscall number. Consequently state may be saved in SVE format prior
to this point.
Considering all of the above, current_pt_regs()->syscallno should not be
used to infer whether the SVE state can be discarded. Luckily we can
instead use cpu_fp_state::to_save to track when it is safe to discard
the SVE state:
* At syscall entry, after the live SVE register state is truncated, set
cpu_fp_state::to_save to FP_STATE_FPSIMD to indicate that only the
FPSIMD portion is live and needs to be saved.
* At syscall exit, once the task's state is guaranteed to be live, set
cpu_fp_state::to_save to FP_STATE_CURRENT to indicate that TIF_SVE
must be considered to determine which state needs to be saved.
* Whenever state is modified, it must be saved+flushed prior to
manipulation. The state will be truncated if necessary when it is
saved, and reloading the state will set fp_state::to_save to
FP_STATE_CURRENT, preventing subsequent discarding.
This permits SVE state to be discarded *only* when it is known to have
been truncated (and the non-FPSIMD portions must be zero), and ensures
that SVE state is retained after it is explicitly modified.
For backporting, note that this fix depends on the following commits:
* b2482807fbd4 ("arm64/sme: Optimise SME exit on syscall entry")
* f130ac0ae441 ("arm64: syscall: unmask DAIF earlier for SVCs")
* 929fa99b1215 ("arm64/fpsimd: signal: Always save+flush state early")
Fixes: 8c845e273104 ("arm64/sve: Leave SVE enabled on syscall if we don't context switch")
Fixes: f130ac0ae441 ("arm64: syscall: unmask DAIF earlier for SVCs")

We keep setting and clearing these bits depending on the role of
the host kernel, mimicking what we do for nVHE. But that's actually
pretty pointless, as we always want physical interrupts to make it
to the host, at EL2.
This has also two problems:
- it prevents IRQs from being taken when these bits are cleared
if the implementation has chosen to implement these bits as
masks when HCR_EL2.{TGE,xMO}=={0,0}
- it triggers a bad erratum on the AmpereOne HW, which catches
fire on clearing these bits while an interrupt is being taken
(AC03_CPU_36).
Let's kill these two birds with a single stone, and permanently
set the xMO bits when running VHE. This involves a bit of surgery
on code paths that rely on flipping these bits on and off for
other purposes.
Note that the earliest setting of hcr_el2 (in the init_hcr_el2
macro) is left untouched as is runs extremely early, with interrupts
disabled, and soon enough overwritten with the final value containing
the xMO bits.

However GCC emits absolute relocations for symbol-relative references with

The KVM PV ABI recently added a feature that allows the VM to discover
the set of physical CPU implementations, identified by a tuple of
{MIDR_EL1, REVIDR_EL1, AIDR_EL1}. Unlike other KVM PV features, the
expectation is that the VMM implements the hypercall instead of KVM as
it has the authoritative view of where the VM gets scheduled.
To do this the VMM needs to know the values of these registers on any
CPU in the system. While MIDR_EL1 and REVIDR_EL1 are already exposed,
AIDR_EL1 is not. Provide it in sysfs along with the other identification
registers.

While reading how `cntvct_el0` was read in the kernel, I found that
__arch_get_hw_counter() is doing something very similar to what
__arch_counter_get_cntvct() is already doing.
Use the existing __arch_counter_get_cntvct() function instead of
duplicating similar inline assembly code in __arch_get_hw_counter().
Both functions were performing nearly identical operations to read the
cntvct_el0 register. The only difference was that
__arch_get_hw_counter() included a memory clobber in its inline
assembly, which appears unnecessary in this context.
This change simplifies the code by eliminating duplicate functionality
and improves maintainability by centralizing the counter access logic in
a single implementation.

For an architecture to enable CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_RESCHED_LAZY, two things are
required:
1) Adding a TIF_NEED_RESCHED_LAZY flag definition
2) Checking for TIF_NEED_RESCHED_LAZY in the appropriate locations
2) is handled in a generic manner by CONFIG_GENERIC_ENTRY, which isn't
(yet) implemented for arm64. However, outside of core scheduler code,
TIF_NEED_RESCHED_LAZY only needs to be checked on a kernel exit, meaning:
o return/entry to userspace.
o return/entry to guest.
The return/entry to a guest is all handled by xfer_to_guest_mode_handle_work()
which already does the right thing, so it can be left as-is.
arm64 doesn't use common entry's exit_to_user_mode_prepare(), so update its
return to user path to check for TIF_NEED_RESCHED_LAZY and call into
schedule() accordingly.

Calling into the MIDR checking framework from the PI code has recently
become much harder, due to the new fancy "multi-MIDR" support that
relies on tables being populated at boot time, but not that early that
they are available to the PI code. There are additional issues with
this framework, as the code really isn't position independend *at all*.
This leads to some ugly breakages, as reported by Ada.
It so appears that the only reason for the PI code to call into the
MIDR checking code is to cope with The Most Broken ARM64 System Ever,
aka Cavium ThunderX, which cannot deal with nG attributes that result
of the combination of KASLR and KPTI as a consequence of Erratum 27456.
Duplicate the check for the erratum in the PI code, removing the
dependency on the bulk of the MIDR checking framework. This allows
dropping that same check from kaslr_requires_kpti(), as the KPTI code
already relies on the ARM64_WORKAROUND_CAVIUM_27456 cap.

There are several issues with the way the native signal handling code
manipulates FPSIMD/SVE/SME state, described in detail below. These
issues largely result from races with preemption and inconsistent
handling of live state vs saved state.
Known issues with native FPSIMD/SVE/SME state management include:
* On systems with FPMR, the code to save/restore the FPMR accesses the
register while it is not owned by the current task. Consequently, this
may corrupt the FPMR of the current task and/or may corrupt the FPMR
of an unrelated task. The FPMR save/restore has been broken since it
was introduced in commit:
8c46def44409fc91 ("arm64/signal: Add FPMR signal handling")
* On systems with SME, setup_return() modifies both the live register
state and the saved state register state regardless of whether the
task's state is live, and without holding the cpu fpsimd context.
Consequently:
- This may corrupt the state an unrelated task which has PSTATE.SM set
and/or PSTATE.ZA set.
- The task may enter the signal handler in streaming mode, and or with
ZA storage enabled unexpectedly.
- The task may enter the signal handler in non-streaming SVE mode with
stale SVE register state, which may have been inherited from
streaming SVE mode unexpectedly. Where the streaming and
non-streaming vector lengths differ, this may be packed into
registers arbitrarily.
This logic has been broken since it was introduced in commit:
40a8e87bb32855b3 ("arm64/sme: Disable ZA and streaming mode when handling signals")
Further incorrect manipulation of state was added in commits:
ea64baacbc36a0d5 ("arm64/signal: Flush FPSIMD register state when disabling streaming mode")
baa8515281b30861 ("arm64/fpsimd: Track the saved FPSIMD state type separately to TIF_SVE")
* Several restoration functions use fpsimd_flush_task_state() to discard
the live FPSIMD/SVE/SME while the in-memory copy is stale.
When a subset of the FPSIMD/SVE/SME state is restored, the remainder
may be non-deterministically reset to a stale snapshot from some
arbitrary point in the past.
This non-deterministic discarding was introduced in commit:
8cd969d28fd2848d ("arm64/sve: Signal handling support")
As of that commit, when TIF_SVE was initially clear, failure to
restore the SVE signal frame could reset the FPSIMD registers to a
stale snapshot.
The pattern of discarding unsaved state was subsequently copied into
restoration functions for some new state in commits:
39782210eb7e8763 ("arm64/sme: Implement ZA signal handling")
ee072cf708048c0d ("arm64/sme: Implement signal handling for ZT")
* On systems with SME/SME2, the entire FPSIMD/SVE/SME state may be
loaded onto the CPU redundantly. Either restore_fpsimd_context() or
restore_sve_fpsimd_context() will load the entire FPSIMD/SVE/SME state
via fpsimd_update_current_state() before restore_za_context() and
restore_zt_context() each discard the state via
fpsimd_flush_task_state().
This is purely redundant work, and not a functional bug.
To fix these issues, rework the native signal handling code to always
save+flush the current task's FPSIMD/SVE/SME state before manipulating
that state. This avoids races with preemption and ensures that state is
manipulated consistently regardless of whether it happened to be live
prior to manipulation. This largely involes:
* Using fpsimd_save_and_flush_current_state() to save+flush the state
for both signal delivery and signal return, before the state is
manipulated in any way.
* Removing fpsimd_signal_preserve_current_state() and updating
preserve_fpsimd_context() to explicitly ensure that the FPSIMD state
is up-to-date, as preserve_fpsimd_context() is the only consumer of
the FPSIMD state during signal delivery.
* Modifying fpsimd_update_current_state() to not reload the FPSIMD state
onto the CPU. Ideally we'd remove fpsimd_update_current_state()
entirely, but I've left that for subsequent patches as there are a
number of of other problems with the FPSIMD<->SVE conversion helpers
that should be addressed at the same time. For now I've removed the
misleading comment.
For setup_return(), we need to decide (for ABI reasons) whether signal
delivery should have all the side-effects of an SMSTOP. For now I've
left a TODO comment, as there are other questions in this area that I'll
