Currently, load_microcode_amd() iterates over all NUMA nodes, retrieves their
CPU masks and unconditionally accesses per-CPU data for the first CPU of each
mask.
According to Documentation/admin-guide/mm/numaperf.rst:
"Some memory may share the same node as a CPU, and others are provided as
memory only nodes."
Therefore, some node CPU masks may be empty and wouldn't have a "first CPU".
On a machine with far memory (and therefore CPU-less NUMA nodes):
- cpumask_of_node(nid) is 0
- cpumask_first(0) is CONFIG_NR_CPUS
- cpu_data(CONFIG_NR_CPUS) accesses the cpu_info per-CPU array at an
index that is 1 out of bounds
This does not have any security implications since flashing microcode is
a privileged operation but I believe this has reliability implications by
potentially corrupting memory while flashing a microcode update.
When booting with CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS=y on an AMD machine that flashes
a microcode update. I get the following splat:
UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/microcode/amd.c:X:Y
index 512 is out of range for type 'unsigned long[512]'
[...]

Change the loop to go over only NUMA nodes which have CPUs before determining
whether the first CPU on the respective node needs microcode update.

This function should've been split a long time ago because it is used in
two paths:
1) On the late loading path, when the microcode is loaded through the
request_firmware interface
2) In the save_microcode_in_initrd() path which collects all the
microcode patches which are relevant for the current system before
the initrd with the microcode container has been jettisoned.
In that path, it is not really necessary to iterate over the nodes on
a system and match a patch however it didn't cause any trouble so it
was left for a later cleanup
However, that later cleanup was expedited by the fact that Jens was
enabling "Use L3 as a NUMA node" in the BIOS setting in his machine and
so this causes the NUMA CPU masks used in cpumask_of_node() to be
generated *after* 2) above happened on the first node. Which means, all
those masks were funky, wrong, uninitialized and whatnot, leading to
explosions when dereffing c->microcode in load_microcode_amd().
So split that function and do only the necessary work needed at each
stage.

Commit in Fixes changed how a microcode patch is loaded on Zen and newer but
the patch matching needs to happen with different rigidity, depending on what
is being done:
1) When the patch is added to the patches cache, the stepping must be ignored
because the driver still supports different steppings per system
2) When the patch is matched for loading, then the stepping must be taken into
account because each CPU needs the patch matching its exact stepping
Take care of that by making the matching smarter.

On Zen and newer, the family, model and stepping is part of the
microcode patch ID so that the equivalence table the driver has been
using, is not needed anymore.
So switch the driver to use that from now on.

there's need to pass some additional information to the kernel loader.

The AMD side of the loader issues the microcode revision for each
logical thread on the system, which can become really noisy on huge
machines. And doing that doesn't make a whole lot of sense - the
microcode revision is already in /proc/cpuinfo.
So in case one is interested in the theoretical support of mixed silicon
steppings on AMD, one can check there.
What is also missing on the AMD side - something which people have
requested before - is showing the microcode revision the CPU had
*before* the early update.
So abstract that up in the main code and have the BSP on each vendor
provide those revision numbers.
Then, dump them only once on driver init.
On Intel, do not dump the patch date - it is not needed.

Applying microcode late can be fatal for the running kernel when the
update changes functionality which is in use already in a non-compatible
way, e.g. by removing a CPUID bit.
There is no way for admins which do not have access to the vendors deep
technical support to decide whether late loading of such a microcode is
safe or not.
Intel has added a new field to the microcode header which tells the
minimal microcode revision which is required to be active in the CPU in
order to be safe.
Provide infrastructure for handling this in the core code and a command
line switch which allows to enforce it.
If the update is considered safe the kernel is not tainted and the annoying
warning message not emitted. If it's enforced and the currently loaded
microcode revision is not safe for late loading then the load is aborted.

On CPUs where microcode loading is not NMI-safe the SMT siblings which
are parked in one of the play_dead() variants still react to NMIs.
So if an NMI hits while the primary thread updates the microcode the
resulting behaviour is undefined. The default play_dead() implementation on
modern CPUs is using MWAIT which is not guaranteed to be safe against
a microcode update which affects MWAIT.
Take the cpus_booted_once_mask into account to detect this case and
refuse to load late if the vendor specific driver does not advertise
that late loading is NMI safe.
AMD stated that this is safe, so mark the AMD driver accordingly.
This requirement will be partially lifted in later changes.

Now that the microcode cache is initialized before the APs are brought
up, there is no point in scanning builtin/initrd microcode during AP
loading.
Convert the AP loader to utilize the cache, which in turn makes the CPU
hotplug callback which applies the microcode after initrd/builtin is
gone, obsolete as the early loading during late hotplug operations
including the resume path depends now only on the cache.

Mixed steppings aren't supported on Intel CPUs. Only one microcode patch
is required for the entire system. The caching of microcode blobs which
match the family and model is therefore pointless and in fact is
dysfunctional as CPU hotplug updates use only a single microcode blob,
i.e. the one where *intel_ucode_patch points to.
Remove the microcode cache and make it an AMD local feature.
[ tglx:
- save only at the end. Otherwise random microcode ends up in the
pointer for early loading
- free the ucode patch pointer in save_microcode_patch() only
after kmemdup() has succeeded, as reported by Andrew Cooper ]

32-bit loads microcode before paging is enabled. The commit which
introduced that has zero justification in the changelog. The cover
letter has slightly more content, but it does not give any technical
justification either:
"The problem in current microcode loading method is that we load a
microcode way, way too late; ideally we should load it before turning
paging on. This may only be practical on 32 bits since we can't get
to 64-bit mode without paging on, but we should still do it as early
as at all possible."
Handwaving word salad with zero technical content.
Someone claimed in an offlist conversation that this is required for
curing the ATOM erratum AAE44/AAF40/AAG38/AAH41. That erratum requires
an microcode update in order to make the usage of PSE safe. But during
early boot, PSE is completely irrelevant and it is evaluated way later.
Neither is it relevant for the AP on single core HT enabled CPUs as the
microcode loading on the AP is not doing anything.
On dual core CPUs there is a theoretical problem if a split of an
executable large page between enabling paging including PSE and loading
the microcode happens. But that's only theoretical, it's practically
irrelevant because the affected dual core CPUs are 64bit enabled and
therefore have paging and PSE enabled before loading the microcode on
the second core. So why would it work on 64-bit but not on 32-bit?
The erratum:
"AAG38 Code Fetch May Occur to Incorrect Address After a Large Page is
Split Into 4-Kbyte Pages
Problem: If software clears the PS (page size) bit in a present PDE
(page directory entry), that will cause linear addresses mapped through
this PDE to use 4-KByte pages instead of using a large page after old
TLB entries are invalidated. Due to this erratum, if a code fetch uses
this PDE before the TLB entry for the large page is invalidated then it
may fetch from a different physical address than specified by either the
old large page translation or the new 4-KByte page translation. This
erratum may also cause speculative code fetches from incorrect addresses."
The practical relevance for this is exactly zero because there is no
splitting of large text pages during early boot-time, i.e. between paging
enable and microcode loading, and neither during CPU hotplug.
IOW, this load microcode before paging enable is yet another voodoo
programming solution in search of a problem. What's worse is that it causes
at least two serious problems:
1) When stackprotector is enabled, the microcode loader code has the
stackprotector mechanics enabled. The read from the per CPU variable
__stack_chk_guard is always accessing the virtual address either
directly on UP or via %fs on SMP. In physical address mode this
results in an access to memory above 3GB. So this works by chance as
the hardware returns the same value when there is no RAM at this
physical address. When there is RAM populated above 3G then the read
is by chance the same as nothing changes that memory during the very
early boot stage. That's not necessarily true during runtime CPU
hotplug.
2) When function tracing is enabled, the relevant microcode loader
functions and the functions invoked from there will call into the
tracing code and evaluate global and per CPU variables in physical
address mode. What could potentially go wrong?
Cure this and move the microcode loading after the early paging enable, use
the new temporary initrd mapping and remove the gunk in the microcode
loader which is required to handle physical address mode.

Building with GCC 11.x results in the following warning:

The issue is that GCC does not know that the family can only be a byte
(it ultimately comes from CPUID). Suggest the right size to the compiler
by marking the argument as char-size ("hh"). While at it, instead of
using the slightly more obscure precision specifier use the width with
zero padding (over 23000 occurrences in kernel sources, vs 500 for
the idiom using the precision).

The AMD side of the loader has always claimed to support mixed
steppings. But somewhere along the way, it broke that by assuming that
the cached patch blob is a single one instead of it being one per
*node*.
So turn it into a per-node one so that each node can stash the blob
relevant for it.

It can happen that - especially during testing - the microcode
blobs of all families are all glued together in the initrd. The
current code doesn't check whether the current container matched
a microcode patch and continues to the next one, which leads to
save_microcode_in_initrd_amd() to look at the next and thus wrong one:
microcode: parse_container: ucode: 0xffff88807e9d9082
microcode: verify_patch: buf: 0xffff88807e9d90ce, buf_size: 26428
microcode: verify_patch: proc_id: 0x8082, patch_fam: 0x17, this family: 0x17
microcode: verify_patch: buf: 0xffff88807e9d9d56, buf_size: 23220
microcode: verify_patch: proc_id: 0x8012, patch_fam: 0x17, this family: 0x17
microcode: parse_container: MATCH: eq_id: 0x8012, patch proc_rev_id: 0x8012
<-- matching patch found
microcode: verify_patch: buf: 0xffff88807e9da9de, buf_size: 20012
microcode: verify_patch: proc_id: 0x8310, patch_fam: 0x17, this family: 0x17
microcode: verify_patch: buf: 0xffff88807e9db666, buf_size: 16804
microcode: Invalid type field (0x414d44) in container file section header.
microcode: Patch section fail
<-- checking chokes on the microcode magic value of the next container.
microcode: parse_container: saving container 0xffff88807e9d9082
microcode: save_microcode_in_initrd_amd: scanned containers, data: 0xffff88807e9d9082, size: 9700a
and now if there's a next (and last container) it'll use that in
save_microcode_in_initrd_amd() and not find a proper patch, ofc.
Fix that by moving the out: label up, before the desc->mc check which
jots down the pointer of the matching patch and is used to signal to the
caller that it has found a matching patch in the current container.

- Rename apply_microcode_early_amd() to early_apply_microcode():
simplify the name so that it is clear what it does and when does it do
it.
- Rename __load_ucode_amd() to find_blobs_in_containers(): the new name
actually explains what it does.
Document some.
No functional changes.

Pull x86 microcode and IFS updates from Borislav Petkov:
"The IFS (In-Field Scan) stuff goes through tip because the IFS driver
uses the same structures and similar functionality as the microcode
loader and it made sense to route it all through this branch so that
there are no conflicts.
- Add support for multiple testing sequences to the Intel In-Field
Scan driver in order to be able to run multiple different test
patterns. Rework things and remove the BROKEN dependency so that
the driver can be enabled (Jithu Joseph)
- Remove the subsys interface usage in the microcode loader because
it is not really needed
- A couple of smaller fixes and cleanups"

Currently, the patch application logic checks whether the revision
needs to be applied on each logical CPU (SMT thread). Therefore, on SMT
designs where the microcode engine is shared between the two threads,
the application happens only on one of them as that is enough to update
the shared microcode engine.
However, there are microcode patches which do per-thread modification,
see Link tag below.
Therefore, drop the revision check and try applying on each thread. This
is what the BIOS does too so this method is very much tested.
Btw, change only the early paths. On the late loading paths, there's no
point in doing per-thread modification because if is it some case like
in the bugzilla below - removing a CPUID flag - the kernel cannot go and
un-use features it has detected are there early. For that, one should
use early loading anyway.

In preparation for reducing the use of ksize(), record the actual
allocation size for later memcpy(). This avoids copying extra
(uninitialized!) bytes into the patch buffer when the requested
allocation size isn't exactly the size of a kmalloc bucket.
Additionally, fix potential future issues where runtime bounds checking
will notice that the buffer was allocated to a smaller value than
returned by ksize().

The microcode loader has been looping through __start_builtin_fw down to
__end_builtin_fw to look for possibly built-in firmware for microcode
updates.
Now that the firmware loader code has exported an API for looping
through the kernel's built-in firmware section, use it and drop the x86
implementation in favor.
