Pull EFI updates from Ard Biesheuvel:
"Not a lot going on in the EFI tree this cycle. The only thing that
stands out is the new support for SBAT metadata, which was a bit
contentious when it was first proposed, because in the initial
incarnation, it would have required us to maintain a revocation index,
and bump it each time a vulnerability affecting UEFI secure boot got
fixed. This was shot down for obvious reasons.
This time, only the changes needed to emit the SBAT section into the
PE/COFF image are being carried upstream, and it is up to the distros
to decide what to put in there when creating and signing the build.
This only has the EFI zboot bits (which the distros will be using for
arm64); the x86 bzImage changes should be arriving next cycle,
presumably via the -tip tree.
Summary:
- Add support for emitting a .sbat section into the EFI zboot image,
so that downstreams can easily include revocation metadata in the
signed EFI images
- Align PE symbolic constant names with other projects
- Bug fix for the efi_test module
- Log the physical address and size of the EFI memory map when
failing to map it
- A kerneldoc fix for the EFI stub code"

Commit 8748270821 ("mm: introduce numa_memblks") has moved
numa_memblks from x86 to the generic code, but LoongArch was left out
of this conversion.
This patch introduces the generic numa_memblks for LoongArch.
In detail:
1. Enable NUMA_MEMBLKS (but disable NUMA_EMU) in Kconfig;
2. Use generic definition for numa_memblk and numa_meminfo;
3. Use generic implementation for numa_add_memblk() and its friends;
4. Use generic implementation for numa_set_distance() and its friends;
5. Use generic implementation for memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() and its
friends.
Note: Disable NUMA_EMU because it needs more efforts and no obvious
demand now.

Note: The reason of increasing to 2048 rather than 4096/8192 is because

on LoongArch.

Save and restore CSR.CNTC for hibernation which is similar to suspend.
For host this is unnecessary because sched clock is ensured continuous,
but for kvm guest sched clock isn't enough because rdtime.d should also
be continuous.
Host::rdtime.d = Host::CSR.CNTC + counter
Guest::rdtime.d = Host::CSR.CNTC + Host::CSR.GCNTC + Guest::CSR.CNTC + counter
so,
Guest::rdtime.d = Host::rdtime.d + Host::CSR.GCNTC + Guest::CSR.CNTC
To ensure Guest::rdtime.d continuous, Host::rdtime.d should be at first
continuous, while Host::CSR.GCNTC / Guest::CSR.CNTC is maintained by KVM.

When CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT is not configured (i.e. CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE/
CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY), preempt_disable() / preempt_enable() merely
acts as a barrier(). However, in these cases cond_resched() can still
trigger a context switch and modify the CSR.EUEN, resulting in do_fpu()
exception being activated within the kernel-fpu critical sections, as
demonstrated in the following path:
dcn32_calculate_wm_and_dlg()
DC_FP_START()
dcn32_calculate_wm_and_dlg_fpu()
dcn32_find_dummy_latency_index_for_fw_based_mclk_switch()
dcn32_internal_validate_bw()
dcn32_enable_phantom_stream()
dc_create_stream_for_sink()
kzalloc(GFP_KERNEL)
__kmem_cache_alloc_node()
__cond_resched()
DC_FP_END()
This patch is similar to commit d021985504 (x86/fpu: Improve crypto
performance by making kernel-mode FPU reliably usable in softirqs). It
uses local_bh_disable() instead of preempt_disable() for non-RT kernels
so it can avoid the cond_resched() issue, and also extend the kernel-fpu
application scenarios to the softirq context.

Currently, interrupts need to be disabled before single-step mode is
set, it requires that CSR_PRMD_PIE be cleared in save_local_irqflag()
which is called by setup_singlestep(), this is reasonable.
But in the first kprobe breakpoint exception, if the irq is enabled at
the beginning of do_bp(), it will not be disabled at the end of do_bp()
due to the CSR_PRMD_PIE has been cleared in save_local_irqflag(). So for
this case, it may corrupt exception context when restoring the exception
after do_bp() in handle_bp(), this is not reasonable.
In order to restore exception safely in handle_bp(), it needs to ensure
the irq is disabled at the end of do_bp(), so just add a local variable
to record the original interrupt status in the parent context, then use
it as the check condition to enable and disable irq in do_bp().
While at it, do the similar thing for other do_xyz() exception handlers
to make them more robust.

This was triggered by one of my mis-uses causing odd build warnings on
sparc in linux-next, but while figuring out why the "obviously correct"
use of cc-option caused such odd breakage, I found eight other cases of
the same thing in the tree.
The root cause is that 'cc-option' doesn't work for checking negative
warning options (ie things like '-Wno-stringop-overflow') because gcc
will silently accept options it doesn't recognize, and so 'cc-option'
ends up thinking they are perfectly fine.
And it all works, until you have a situation where _another_ warning is
emitted. At that point the compiler will go "Hmm, maybe the user
intended to disable this warning but used that wrong option that I
didn't recognize", and generate a warning for the unrecognized negative
option.
Which explains why we have several cases of this in the tree: the
'cc-option' test really doesn't work for this situation, but most of the
time it simply doesn't matter that ity doesn't work.
The reason my recently added case caused problems on sparc was pointed
out by Thomas Weißschuh: the sparc build had a previous explicit warning
that then triggered the new one.
I think the best fix for this would be to make 'cc-option' a bit smarter
about this sitation, possibly by adding an intentional warning to the
test case that then triggers the unrecognized option warning reliably.
But the short-term fix is to replace 'cc-option' with an existing helper
designed for this exact case: 'cc-disable-warning', which picks the
negative warning but uses the positive form for testing the compiler
support.

The arch_kgdb_breakpoint() function defines the kgdb_breakinst symbol
using inline assembly.
1. There's a potential issue where the compiler might inline
arch_kgdb_breakpoint(), which would then define the kgdb_breakinst
symbol multiple times, leading to a linker error.
To prevent this, declare arch_kgdb_breakpoint() as noinline.
Fix follow error with LLVM-19 *only* when LTO_CLANG_FULL:
LD vmlinux.o
ld.lld-19: error: ld-temp.o <inline asm>:3:1: symbol 'kgdb_breakinst' is already defined

2. Remove "nop" in the inline assembly because it's meaningless for
LoongArch here.

the objtool warning.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"ARM:
- Nested virtualization support for VGICv3, giving the nested
hypervisor control of the VGIC hardware when running an L2 VM
- Removal of 'late' nested virtualization feature register masking,
making the supported feature set directly visible to userspace
- Support for emulating FEAT_PMUv3 on Apple silicon, taking advantage
of an IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED trap that covers all PMUv3 registers
- Paravirtual interface for discovering the set of CPU
implementations where a VM may run, addressing a longstanding issue
of guest CPU errata awareness in big-little systems and
cross-implementation VM migration
- Userspace control of the registers responsible for identifying a
particular CPU implementation (MIDR_EL1, REVIDR_EL1, AIDR_EL1),
allowing VMs to be migrated cross-implementation
- pKVM updates, including support for tracking stage-2 page table
allocations in the protected hypervisor in the 'SecPageTable' stat
- Fixes to vPMU, ensuring that userspace updates to the vPMU after
KVM_RUN are reflected into the backing perf events
LoongArch:
- Remove unnecessary header include path
- Assume constant PGD during VM context switch
- Add perf events support for guest VM
RISC-V:
- Disable the kernel perf counter during configure
- KVM selftests improvements for PMU
- Fix warning at the time of KVM module removal
x86:
- Add support for aging of SPTEs without holding mmu_lock.
Not taking mmu_lock allows multiple aging actions to run in
parallel, and more importantly avoids stalling vCPUs. This includes
an implementation of per-rmap-entry locking; aging the gfn is done
with only a per-rmap single-bin spinlock taken, whereas locking an
rmap for write requires taking both the per-rmap spinlock and the
mmu_lock.
Note that this decreases slightly the accuracy of accessed-page
information, because changes to the SPTE outside aging might not
use atomic operations even if they could race against a clear of
the Accessed bit.
This is deliberate because KVM and mm/ tolerate false
positives/negatives for accessed information, and testing has shown
that reducing the latency of aging is far more beneficial to
overall system performance than providing "perfect" young/old
information.
- Defer runtime CPUID updates until KVM emulates a CPUID instruction,
to coalesce updates when multiple pieces of vCPU state are
changing, e.g. as part of a nested transition
- Fix a variety of nested emulation bugs, and add VMX support for
synthesizing nested VM-Exit on interception (instead of injecting
#UD into L2)
- Drop "support" for async page faults for protected guests that do
not set SEND_ALWAYS (i.e. that only want async page faults at CPL3)
- Bring a bit of sanity to x86's VM teardown code, which has
accumulated a lot of cruft over the years. Particularly, destroy
vCPUs before the MMU, despite the latter being a VM-wide operation
- Add common secure TSC infrastructure for use within SNP and in the
future TDX
- Block KVM_CAP_SYNC_REGS if guest state is protected. It does not
make sense to use the capability if the relevant registers are not
available for reading or writing
- Don't take kvm->lock when iterating over vCPUs in the suspend
notifier to fix a largely theoretical deadlock
- Use the vCPU's actual Xen PV clock information when starting the
Xen timer, as the cached state in arch.hv_clock can be stale/bogus
- Fix a bug where KVM could bleed PVCLOCK_GUEST_STOPPED across
different PV clocks; restrict PVCLOCK_GUEST_STOPPED to kvmclock, as
KVM's suspend notifier only accounts for kvmclock, and there's no
evidence that the flag is actually supported by Xen guests
- Clean up the per-vCPU "cache" of its reference pvclock, and instead
only track the vCPU's TSC scaling (multipler+shift) metadata (which
is moderately expensive to compute, and rarely changes for modern
setups)
- Don't write to the Xen hypercall page on MSR writes that are
initiated by the host (userspace or KVM) to fix a class of bugs
where KVM can write to guest memory at unexpected times, e.g.
during vCPU creation if userspace has set the Xen hypercall MSR
index to collide with an MSR that KVM emulates
- Restrict the Xen hypercall MSR index to the unofficial synthetic
range to reduce the set of possible collisions with MSRs that are
emulated by KVM (collisions can still happen as KVM emulates
Hyper-V MSRs, which also reside in the synthetic range)
- Clean up and optimize KVM's handling of Xen MSR writes and
xen_hvm_config
- Update Xen TSC leaves during CPUID emulation instead of modifying
the CPUID entries when updating PV clocks; there is no guarantee PV
clocks will be updated between TSC frequency changes and CPUID
emulation, and guest reads of the TSC leaves should be rare, i.e.
are not a hot path
x86 (Intel):
- Fix a bug where KVM unnecessarily reads XFD_ERR from hardware and
thus modifies the vCPU's XFD_ERR on a #NM due to CR0.TS=1
- Pass XFD_ERR as the payload when injecting #NM, as a preparatory
step for upcoming FRED virtualization support
- Decouple the EPT entry RWX protection bit macros from the EPT
Violation bits, both as a general cleanup and in anticipation of
adding support for emulating Mode-Based Execution Control (MBEC)
- Reject KVM_RUN if userspace manages to gain control and stuff
invalid guest state while KVM is in the middle of emulating nested
VM-Enter
- Add a macro to handle KVM's sanity checks on entry/exit VMCS
control pairs in anticipation of adding sanity checks for secondary
exit controls (the primary field is out of bits)
x86 (AMD):
- Ensure the PSP driver is initialized when both the PSP and KVM
modules are built-in (the initcall framework doesn't handle
dependencies)
- Use long-term pins when registering encrypted memory regions, so
that the pages are migrated out of MIGRATE_CMA/ZONE_MOVABLE and
don't lead to excessive fragmentation
- Add macros and helpers for setting GHCB return/error codes
- Add support for Idle HLT interception, which elides interception if
the vCPU has a pending, unmasked virtual IRQ when HLT is executed
- Fix a bug in INVPCID emulation where KVM fails to check for a
non-canonical address
- Don't attempt VMRUN for SEV-ES+ guests if the vCPU's VMSA is
invalid, e.g. because the vCPU was "destroyed" via SNP's AP
Creation hypercall
- Reject SNP AP Creation if the requested SEV features for the vCPU
don't match the VM's configured set of features
Selftests:
- Fix again the Intel PMU counters test; add a data load and do
CLFLUSH{OPT} on the data instead of executing code. The theory is
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 an
event is counting correctly without actually knowing what the event
counts on the underlying hardware
- Fix a variety of flaws, bugs, and false failures/passes
dirty_log_test, and improve its coverage by collecting all dirty
entries on each iteration
- Fix a few minor bugs related to handling of stats FDs
- Add infrastructure to make vCPU and VM stats FDs available to tests
by default (open the FDs during VM/vCPU creation)
- Relax an assertion on the number of HLT exits in the xAPIC IPI test
when running on a CPU that supports AMD's Idle HLT (which elides
interception of HLT if a virtual IRQ is pending and unmasked)"

Pull VDSO infrastructure updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Consolidate the VDSO storage
The VDSO data storage and data layout has been largely architecture
specific for historical reasons. That increases the maintenance
effort and causes inconsistencies over and over.
There is no real technical reason for architecture specific layouts
and implementations. The architecture specific details can easily be
integrated into a generic layout, which also reduces the amount of
duplicated code for managing the mappings.
Convert all architectures over to a unified layout and common mapping
infrastructure. This splits the VDSO data layout into subsystem
specific blocks, timekeeping, random and architecture parts, which
provides a better structure and allows to improve and update the
functionalities without conflict and interaction.
- Rework the timekeeping data storage
The current implementation is designed for exposing system
timekeeping accessors, which was good enough at the time when it was
designed.
PTP and Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) change that as there are
requirements to expose independent PTP clocks, which are not related
to system timekeeping.
Replace the monolithic data storage by a structured layout, which
allows to add support for independent PTP clocks on top while reusing
both the data structures and the time accessor implementations.

When CONFIG_RANDOM_KMALLOC_CACHES or other randomization infrastructrue
enabled, the idle_task's stack may different between the booting kernel
and target kernel. So when resuming from hibernation, an ACTION_BOOT_CPU
IPI wakeup the idle instruction in arch_cpu_idle_dead() and jump to the
interrupt handler. But since the stack pointer is changed, the interrupt
handler cannot restore correct context.
So rename the current arch_cpu_idle_dead() to idle_play_dead(), make it
as the default version of play_dead(), and the new arch_cpu_idle_dead()
call play_dead() directly. For hibernation, implement an arch-specific
hibernate_resume_nonboot_cpu_disable() to use the polling version (idle
instruction is replace by nop, and irq is disabled) of play_dead(), i.e.
poll_play_dead(), to avoid IPI handler corrupting the idle_task's stack
when resuming from hibernation.
This solution is a little similar to commit 406f992e4a ("x86 /
hibernate: Use hlt_play_dead() when resuming from hibernation").

The notifier hook mechanism in proc and cpuinfo is actually unnecessary
for LoongArch because it's not used anywhere.
It was originally added to the MIPS code in commit d6d3c9afaa ("MIPS:
MT: proc: Add support for printing VPE and TC ids"), and LoongArch then
inherited it.
But as the kernel code stands now, this notifier hook mechanism doesn't
really make sense for either LoongArch or MIPS.
In addition, the seq_file forward declaration needs to be moved to its
proper place, as only the show_ipi_list() function in smp.c requires it.

LoongArch re-enables interrupts on its idle routine and performs a
TIF_NEED_RESCHED check afterwards before putting the CPU to sleep.
The IRQs firing between the check and the idle instruction may set the
TIF_NEED_RESCHED flag. In order to deal with such a race, IRQs
interrupting __arch_cpu_idle() rollback their return address to the
beginning of __arch_cpu_idle() so that TIF_NEED_RESCHED is checked
again before going back to sleep.
However idle IRQs can also queue timers that may require a tick
reprogramming through a new generic idle loop iteration but those timers
would go unnoticed here because __arch_cpu_idle() only checks
TIF_NEED_RESCHED. It doesn't check for pending timers.
Fix this with fast-forwarding idle IRQs return address to the end of the
idle routine instead of the beginning, so that the generic idle loop can
handle both TIF_NEED_RESCHED and pending timers.

The maximum number of load/store watchpoints and fetch instruction
watchpoints is 14 each according to LoongArch Reference Manual, so
extend the maximum number of watchpoints from 8 to 14 for ptrace.
By the way, just simply change 8 to 14 for the definition in struct
user_watch_state at the beginning, but it may corrupt uapi, then add
a new struct user_watch_state_v2 directly.
As far as I can tell, the only users for this struct in the userspace
are GDB and LLDB, there are no any problems of software compatibility
between the application and kernel according to the analysis.
The compatibility problem has been considered while developing and
testing. When the applications in the userspace get watchpoint state,
the length will be specified which is no bigger than the sizeof struct
user_watch_state or user_watch_state_v2, the actual length is assigned
as the minimal value of the application and kernel in the generic code
of ptrace:
kernel/ptrace.c: ptrace_regset():
kiov->iov_len = min(kiov->iov_len,
(__kernel_size_t) (regset->n * regset->size));
if (req == PTRACE_GETREGSET)
return copy_regset_to_user(task, view, regset_no, 0,
kiov->iov_len, kiov->iov_base);
else
return copy_regset_from_user(task, view, regset_no, 0,
kiov->iov_len, kiov->iov_base);
For example, there are four kind of combinations, all of them work well.
(1) "older kernel + older gdb", the actual length is 8+(8+8+4+4)*8=200;
(2) "newer kernel + newer gdb", the actual length is 8+(8+8+4+4)*14=344;
(3) "older kernel + newer gdb", the actual length is 8+(8+8+4+4)*8=200;
(4) "newer kernel + older gdb", the actual length is 8+(8+8+4+4)*8=200.
