"arm64:
- Fix a couple of bugs affecting pKVM's PSCI relay implementation
when running in the hVHE mode, resulting in the host being entered
with the MMU in an unknown state, and EL2 being in the wrong mode
x86:
- Set RFLAGS.IF in C code on SVM to get VMRUN out of the STI shadow
- Ensure DEBUGCTL is context switched on AMD to avoid running the
guest with the host's value, which can lead to unexpected bus lock
#DBs
- Suppress DEBUGCTL.BTF on AMD (to match Intel), as KVM doesn't
properly emulate BTF. KVM's lack of context switching has meant BTF
has always been broken to some extent
- Always save DR masks for SNP vCPUs if DebugSwap is *supported*, as
the guest can enable DebugSwap without KVM's knowledge
- Fix a bug in mmu_stress_tests where a vCPU could finish the "writes
to RO memory" phase without actually generating a write-protection
fault
- Fix a printf() goof in the SEV smoke test that causes build
failures with -Werror
- Explicitly zero EAX and EBX in CPUID.0x8000_0022 output when
PERFMON_V2 isn't supported by KVM"

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:
3944382fa6 ("arm64: Treat HCR_EL2.E2H as RES1 when ID_AA64MMFR4_EL1.E2H0 is negative")
b3320142f3 ("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().

Pull arm64 fixes from Will Deacon:
"Ryan's been hard at work finding and fixing mm bugs in the arm64 code,
so here's a small crop of fixes for -rc5.
The main changes are to fix our zapping of non-present PTEs for
hugetlb entries created using the contiguous bit in the page-table
rather than a block entry at the level above. Prior to these fixes, we
were pulling the contiguous bit back out of the PTE in order to
determine the size of the hugetlb page but this is clearly bogus if
the thing isn't present and consequently both the clearing of the
PTE(s) and the TLB invalidation were unreliable.
Although the problem was found by code inspection, we really don't
want this sitting around waiting to trigger and the changes are CC'd
to stable accordingly.
Note that the diffstat looks a lot worse than it really is;
huge_ptep_get_and_clear() now takes a size argument from the core code
and so all the arch implementations of that have been updated in a
pretty mechanical fashion.
- Fix a sporadic boot failure due to incorrect randomization of the
linear map on systems that support it
- Fix the zapping (both clearing the entries *and* invalidating the
TLB) of hugetlb PTEs constructed using the contiguous bit"

commit c910f2b655 ("arm64/mm: Update tlb invalidation routines for

TLBI_TTL_UNKNOWN (INT_MAX). But the fallback "unknown level" path in
flush_hugetlb_tlb_range() was not updated. So as it stands, when trying
to invalidate CONT_PMD_SIZE or CONT_PTE_SIZE hugetlb mappings, we will
spuriously try to invalidate at level 0 on LPA2-enabled systems.
Fix this so that the fallback passes TLBI_TTL_UNKNOWN, and while we are
at it, explicitly use the correct stride and level for CONT_PMD_SIZE and
CONT_PTE_SIZE, which should provide a minor optimization.

Vladimir reports that a race condition to attach a VMID to a stage-2 MMU
sometimes results in a vCPU entering the guest with a VMID of 0:
| CPU1 | CPU2
| |
| | kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run
| | vcpu_load <= load VTTBR_EL2
| | kvm_vmid->id = 0
| |
| kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run |
| vcpu_load <= load VTTBR_EL2 |
| with kvm_vmid->id = 0|
| kvm_arm_vmid_update <= allocates fresh |
| kvm_vmid->id and |
| reload VTTBR_EL2 |
| |
| | kvm_arm_vmid_update <= observes that kvm_vmid->id
| | already allocated,
| | skips reload VTTBR_EL2
Oh yeah, it's as bad as it looks. Remember that VHE loads the stage-2
MMU eagerly but a VMID only gets attached to the MMU later on in the
KVM_RUN loop.
Even in the "best case" where VTTBR_EL2 correctly gets reprogrammed
before entering the EL1&0 regime, there is a period of time where
hardware is configured with VMID 0. That's completely insane. So, rather
than decorating the 'late' binding with another hack, just allocate the
damn thing up front.
Attaching a VMID from vcpu_load() is still rollover safe since
(surprise!) it'll always get called after a vCPU was preempted.
Excuse me while I go find a brown paper bag.

When not running in VHE mode, cpu_prepare_hyp_mode() computes the value
of TCR_EL2 using the host's TCR_EL1 settings as a starting point. For
nVHE, this amounts to masking out everything apart from the TG0, SH0,
ORGN0, IRGN0 and T0SZ fields before setting the RES1 bits, shifting the
IPS field down to the PS field and setting DS if LPA2 is enabled.
Unfortunately, for hVHE, things go slightly wonky: EPD1 is correctly set
to disable walks via TTBR1_EL2 but then the T1SZ and IPS fields are
corrupted when we mistakenly attempt to initialise the PS and DS fields
in their E2H=0 positions. Furthermore, many fields are retained from
TCR_EL1 which should not be propagated to TCR_EL2. Notably, this means
we can end up with A1 set despite not initialising TTBR1_EL2 at all.
This has been shown to cause unexpected translation faults at EL2 with
pKVM due to TLB invalidation not taking effect when running with a
non-zero ASID.
Fix the TCR_EL2 initialisation code to set PS and DS only when E2H=0,
masking out HD, HA and A1 when E2H=1.

KVM/arm64 fixes for 6.14, take #2
- Large set of fixes for vector handling, specially in the interactions
between host and guest state. This fixes a number of bugs affecting
actual deployments, and greatly simplifies the FP/SIMD/SVE handling.
Thanks to Mark Rutland for dealing with this thankless task.
- Fix an ugly race between vcpu and vgic creation/init, resulting in
unexpected behaviours.
- Fix use of kernel VAs at EL2 when emulating timers with nVHE.
- Small set of pKVM improvements and cleanups.
When allocating guest stage-2 page-table pages at EL2, pKVM can consume
pages from the host-provided kvm_hyp_memcache. As pgtable.c expects
zeroed pages, guest_s2_zalloc_page() actively implements this zeroing
with a PAGE_SIZE memset. Unfortunately, we don't check the page
alignment of the host-provided address before doing so, which could
lead to the memset overrunning the page if the host was malicious.
Fix this by simply force-aligning all kvm_hyp_memcache allocations to
page boundaries.

For historical reasons, the VHE and nVHE/hVHE implementations of
__activate_cptr_traps() pair with a common implementation of
__kvm_reset_cptr_el2(), which ideally would be named
__deactivate_cptr_traps().
Rename __kvm_reset_cptr_el2() to __deactivate_cptr_traps(), and split it
into separate VHE and nVHE/hVHE variants so that each can be paired with
its corresponding implementation of __activate_cptr_traps().
At the same time, fold kvm_write_cptr_el2() into its callers. This
makes it clear in-context whether a write is made to the CPACR_EL1
encoding or the CPTR_EL2 encoding, and removes the possibility of
confusion as to whether kvm_write_cptr_el2() reformats the sysreg fields
as cpacr_clear_set() does.
In the nVHE/hVHE implementation of __activate_cptr_traps(), placing the
sysreg writes within the if-else blocks requires that the call to
__activate_traps_fpsimd32() is moved earlier, but as this was always
called before writing to CPTR_EL2/CPACR_EL1, this should not result in a
functional change.

When KVM is in VHE mode, the host kernel tries to save and restore the
configuration of CPACR_EL1.SMEN (i.e. CPTR_EL2.SMEN when HCR_EL2.E2H=1)
across kvm_arch_vcpu_load_fp() and kvm_arch_vcpu_put_fp(), since the
configuration may be clobbered by hyp when running a vCPU. This logic
has historically been broken, and is currently redundant.
This logic was originally introduced in commit:
861262ab86 ("KVM: arm64: Handle SME host state when running guests")
At the time, the VHE hyp code would reset CPTR_EL2.SMEN to 0b00 when
returning to the host, trapping host access to SME state. Unfortunately,
this was unsafe as the host could take a softirq before calling
kvm_arch_vcpu_put_fp(), and if a softirq handler were to use kernel mode
NEON the resulting attempt to save the live FPSIMD/SVE/SME state would
result in a fatal trap.
That issue was limited to VHE mode. For nVHE/hVHE modes, KVM always
saved/restored the host kernel's CPACR_EL1 value, and configured
CPTR_EL2.TSM to 0b0, ensuring that host usage of SME would not be
trapped.
The issue above was incidentally fixed by commit:
375110ab51 ("KVM: arm64: Fix resetting SME trap values on reset for (h)VHE")
That commit changed the VHE hyp code to configure CPTR_EL2.SMEN to 0b01
when returning to the host, permitting host kernel usage of SME,
avoiding the issue described above. At the time, this was not identified
as a fix for commit 861262ab86.
Now that the host eagerly saves and unbinds its own FPSIMD/SVE/SME
state, there's no need to save/restore the state of the EL0 SME trap.
The kernel can safely save/restore state without trapping, as described
above, and will restore userspace state (including trap controls) before
returning to userspace.
Remove the redundant logic.

save/restore the host FPSIMD/SVE state to avoid leaking guest state to

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"Loongarch:
- Clear LLBCTL if secondary mmu mapping changes
- Add hypercall service support for usermode VMM
x86:
- Add a comment to kvm_mmu_do_page_fault() to explain why KVM
performs a direct call to kvm_tdp_page_fault() when RETPOLINE is
enabled
- Ensure that all SEV code is compiled out when disabled in Kconfig,
even if building with less brilliant compilers
- Remove a redundant TLB flush on AMD processors when guest CR4.PGE
changes
- Use str_enabled_disabled() to replace open coded strings
- Drop kvm_x86_ops.hwapic_irr_update() as KVM updates hardware's
APICv cache prior to every VM-Enter
- Overhaul KVM's CPUID feature infrastructure to track all vCPU
capabilities instead of just those where KVM needs to manage state
and/or explicitly enable the feature in hardware. Along the way,
refactor the code to make it easier to add features, and to make it
more self-documenting how KVM is handling each feature
- Rework KVM's handling of VM-Exits during event vectoring; this
plugs holes where KVM unintentionally puts the vCPU into infinite
loops in some scenarios (e.g. if emulation is triggered by the
exit), and brings parity between VMX and SVM
- Add pending request and interrupt injection information to the
kvm_exit and kvm_entry tracepoints respectively
- Fix a relatively benign flaw where KVM would end up redoing RDPKRU
when loading guest/host PKRU, due to a refactoring of the kernel
helpers that didn't account for KVM's pre-checking of the need to
do WRPKRU
- Make the completion of hypercalls go through the complete_hypercall
function pointer argument, no matter if the hypercall exits to
userspace or not.
Previously, the code assumed that KVM_HC_MAP_GPA_RANGE specifically
went to userspace, and all the others did not; the new code need
not special case KVM_HC_MAP_GPA_RANGE and in fact does not care at
all whether there was an exit to userspace or not
- As part of enabling TDX virtual machines, support support
separation of private/shared EPT into separate roots.
When TDX will be enabled, operations on private pages will need to
go through the privileged TDX Module via SEAMCALLs; as a result,
they are limited and relatively slow compared to reading a PTE.
The patches included in 6.14 allow KVM to keep a mirror of the
private EPT in host memory, and define entries in kvm_x86_ops to
operate on external page tables such as the TDX private EPT
- The recently introduced conversion of the NX-page reclamation
kthread to vhost_task moved the task under the main process. The
task is created as soon as KVM_CREATE_VM was invoked and this, of
course, broke userspace that didn't expect to see any child task of
the VM process until it started creating its own userspace threads.
In particular crosvm refuses to fork() if procfs shows any child
task, so unbreak it by creating the task lazily. This is arguably a
userspace bug, as there can be other kinds of legitimate worker
tasks and they wouldn't impede fork(); but it's not like userspace
has a way to distinguish kernel worker tasks right now. Should they
show as "Kthread: 1" in proc/.../status?
x86 - Intel:
- Fix a bug where KVM updates hardware's APICv cache of the highest
ISR bit while L2 is active, while ultimately results in a
hardware-accelerated L1 EOI effectively being lost
- Honor event priority when emulating Posted Interrupt delivery
during nested VM-Enter by queueing KVM_REQ_EVENT instead of
immediately handling the interrupt
- Rework KVM's processing of the Page-Modification Logging buffer to
reap entries in the same order they were created, i.e. to mark gfns
dirty in the same order that hardware marked the page/PTE dirty
- Misc cleanups
Generic:
- Cleanup and harden kvm_set_memory_region(); add proper lockdep
assertions when setting memory regions and add a dedicated API for
setting KVM-internal memory regions. The API can then explicitly
disallow all flags for KVM-internal memory regions
- Explicitly verify the target vCPU is online in kvm_get_vcpu() to
fix a bug where KVM would return a pointer to a vCPU prior to it
being fully online, and give kvm_for_each_vcpu() similar treatment
to fix a similar flaw
- Wait for a vCPU to come online prior to executing a vCPU ioctl, to
fix a bug where userspace could coerce KVM into handling the ioctl
on a vCPU that isn't yet onlined
- Gracefully handle xarray insertion failures; even though such
failures are impossible in practice after xa_reserve(), reserving
an entry is always followed by xa_store() which does not know (or
differentiate) whether there was an xa_reserve() before or not
RISC-V:
- Zabha, Svvptc, and Ziccrse extension support for guests. None of
them require anything in KVM except for detecting them and marking
them as supported; Zabha adds byte and halfword atomic operations,
while the others are markers for specific operation of the TLB and
of LL/SC instructions respectively
- Virtualize SBI system suspend extension for Guest/VM
- Support firmware counters which can be used by the guests to
collect statistics about traps that occur in the host
Selftests:
- Rework vcpu_get_reg() to return a value instead of using an
out-param, and update all affected arch code accordingly
- Convert the max_guest_memory_test into a more generic
mmu_stress_test. The basic gist of the "conversion" is to have the
test do mprotect() on guest memory while vCPUs are accessing said
memory, e.g. to verify KVM and mmu_notifiers are working as
intended
- Play nice with treewrite builds of unsupported architectures, e.g.
arm (32-bit), as KVM selftests' Makefile doesn't do anything to
ensure the target architecture is actually one KVM selftests
supports
- Use the kernel's $(ARCH) definition instead of the target triple
for arch specific directories, e.g. arm64 instead of aarch64,
mainly so as not to be different from the rest of the kernel
- Ensure that format strings for logging statements are checked by
the compiler even when the logging statement itself is disabled
- Attempt to whack the last LLC references/misses mole in the Intel
PMU counters test by adding a data load and doing CLFLUSH{OPT} on
the data instead of the code being executed. It seems that modern
Intel CPUs have learned new code prefetching tricks that bypass the
PMU counters
- Fix a flaw in the Intel PMU counters test where it asserts that
events are counting correctly without actually knowing what the
events count given the underlying hardware; this can happen if
Intel reuses a formerly microarchitecture-specific event encoding
as an architectural event, as was the case for Top-Down Slots"

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"

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.

: Fixes for NV sysreg accessors. From the cover letter:
:
: "Joey recently reported that some rather basic tests were failing on
: NV, and managed to track it down to critical register fields (such as
: HCR_EL2.E2H) not having their expect value.
:
: Further investigation has outlined a couple of critical issues:
:
: - Evaluating HCR_EL2.E2H must always be done with a sanitising
: accessor, no ifs, no buts. Given that KVM assumes a fixed value for
: this bit, we cannot leave it to the guest to mess with.
:
: - Resetting the sysreg file must result in the RESx bits taking
: effect. Otherwise, we may end-up making the wrong decision (see
: above), and we definitely expose invalid values to the guest. Note
: that because we compute the RESx masks very late in the VM setup, we
: need to apply these masks at that particular point as well.

* kvm-arm64/nv-timers:

: Nested Virt support for the EL2 timers. From the initial cover letter:
:
: "Here's another batch of NV-related patches, this time bringing in most
: of the timer support for EL2 as well as nested guests.
:
: 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.

While we have sanitisation in place for the guest sysregs, we lack
that sanitisation out of reset. So some of the fields could be
evaluated and not reflect their RESx status, which sounds like
a very bad idea.
Apply the RESx masks to the the sysreg file in two situations:
- when going via a reset of the sysregs
- after having computed the RESx masks
Having this separate reset phase from the actual reset handling is
a bit grotty, but we need to apply this after the ID registers are
final.

A lot of the NV code depends on HCR_EL2.{E2H,TGE}, and we assume
in places that at least HCR_EL2.E2H is invariant for a given guest.
However, we make a point in *not* using the sanitising accessor
that would enforce this, and are at the mercy of the guest doing
stupid things. Clearly, that's not good.
Rework the HCR_EL2 accessors to use __vcpu_sys_reg() instead,
guaranteeing that the RESx settings get applied, specially
when HCR_EL2.E2H is evaluated. This results in fewer accessors
overall.
Huge thanks to Joey who spent a long time tracking this bug down.

Currently in nVHE, KVM has to check if TRBE is enabled on every guest
switch even if it was never used. Because it's a debug feature and is
more likely to not be used than used, give KVM the TRBE buffer status to
allow a much simpler and faster do-nothing path in the hyp.
Protected mode now disables trace regardless of TRBE (because
trfcr_while_in_guest is always 0), which was not previously done.
However, it continues to flush whenever the buffer is enabled
regardless of the filter status. This avoids the hypothetical case of a
host that had disabled the filter but not flushed which would arise if
only doing the flush when the filter was enabled.

Convert TRFCR to automatic generation. Add separate definitions for ELx
and EL2 as TRFCR_EL1 doesn't have CX. This also mirrors the previous
definition so no code change is required.
Also add TRFCR_EL12 which will start to be used in a later commit.
Unfortunately, to avoid breaking the Perf build with duplicate
definition errors, the tools copy of the sysreg.h header needs to be
updated at the same time rather than the usual second commit. This is
because the generated version of sysreg
(arch/arm64/include/generated/asm/sysreg-defs.h), is currently shared
and tools/ does not have its own copy.

: pKVM support for non-protected guests using the standard MM
: infrastructure, courtesy of Quentin Perret. From the cover letter:
:
: "This series moves the stage-2 page-table management of non-protected
: guests to EL2 when pKVM is enabled. This is only intended as an
: incremental step towards a 'feature-complete' pKVM, there is however a
: lot more that needs to come on top.
:
: With that series applied, pKVM provides near-parity with standard KVM
: from a functional perspective all while Linux no longer touches the
: stage-2 page-tables itself at EL1. The majority of mm-related KVM
: features work out of the box, including MMU notifiers, dirty logging,
: RO memslots and things of that nature. There are however two gotchas:
:
: - We don't support mapping devices into guests: this requires
: additional hypervisor support for tracking the 'state' of devices,
: which will come in a later series. No device assignment until then.
:
: - Stage-2 mappings are forced to page-granularity even when backed by a
: huge page for the sake of simplicity of this series. I'm only aiming
: at functional parity-ish (from userspace's PoV) for now, support for
: HP can be added on top later as a perf improvement."

When a kthread or any other task has an affinity mask that is fully
offline or unallowed, the scheduler reaffines the task to all possible
CPUs as a last resort.
This default decision doesn't mix up very well with nohz_full CPUs that
are part of the possible cpumask but don't want to be disturbed by
unbound kthreads or even detached pinned user tasks.
Make the fallback affinity setting aware of nohz_full.

The TSM module provides guest identification and attestation when a
guest runs in CCA realm mode. By creating a dummy platform device,
let's ensure the module is automatically loaded. The udev daemon loads
the TSM module after it receives a device addition event. Once that
happens, it can be used earlier in the boot process to decrypt the
rootfs.

The hypervisor VA space size depends on both the ID map's
(IDMAP_VA_BITS) and the kernel stage-1 (VA_BITS). However, the
hypervisor stacktrace decoding is solely relying on VA_BITS. This is
especially an issue when VA_BITS < IDMAP_VA_BITS (i.e. VA_BITS is
39-bit): the hypervisor may have addresses bigger than the stacktrace is
masking.
Align this mask with hyp_va_bits.
