Pull x86 entry updates from Ingo Molnar:
"This contains x32 and compat syscall improvements, the biggest one of
which splits x32 syscalls into their own table, which allows new
syscalls to share the x32 and x86-64 number - which turns the
512-547 special syscall numbers range into a legacy wart that won't be
extended going forward"

Pull x86 cpu-feature updates from Ingo Molnar:
- Rework the Intel model names symbols/macros, which were decades of
ad-hoc extensions and added random noise. It's now a coherent, easy
to follow nomenclature.
- Add new Intel CPU model IDs:
- "Tiger Lake" desktop and mobile models
- "Elkhart Lake" model ID
- and the "Lightning Mountain" variant of Airmont, plus support code
- Add the new AVX512_VP2INTERSECT instruction to cpufeatures
- Remove Intel MPX user-visible APIs and the self-tests, because the
toolchain (gcc) is not supporting it going forward. This is the
first, lowest-risk phase of MPX removal.
- Remove X86_FEATURE_MFENCE_RDTSC
- Various smaller cleanups and fixes

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
- MAINTAINERS: Add Mark Rutland as perf submaintainer, Juri Lelli and
Vincent Guittot as scheduler submaintainers. Add Dietmar Eggemann,
Steven Rostedt, Ben Segall and Mel Gorman as scheduler reviewers.
As perf and the scheduler is getting bigger and more complex,
document the status quo of current responsibilities and interests,
and spread the review pain^H^H^H^H fun via an increase in the Cc:
linecount generated by scripts/get_maintainer.pl. :-)
- Add another series of patches that brings the -rt (PREEMPT_RT) tree
closer to mainline: split the monolithic CONFIG_PREEMPT dependencies
into a new CONFIG_PREEMPTION category that will allow the eventual
introduction of CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT. Still a few more hundred patches
to go though.
- Extend the CPU cgroup controller with uclamp.min and uclamp.max to
allow the finer shaping of CPU bandwidth usage.
- Micro-optimize energy-aware wake-ups from O(CPUS^2) to O(CPUS).
- Improve the behavior of high CPU count, high thread count
applications running under cpu.cfs_quota_us constraints.
- Improve balancing with SCHED_IDLE (SCHED_BATCH) tasks present.
- Improve CPU isolation housekeeping CPU allocation NUMA locality.
- Fix deadline scheduler bandwidth calculations and logic when cpusets
rebuilds the topology, or when it gets deadline-throttled while it's
being offlined.
- Convert the cpuset_mutex to percpu_rwsem, to allow it to be used from
setscheduler() system calls without creating global serialization.
Add new synchronization between cpuset topology-changing events and
the deadline acceptance tests in setscheduler(), which were broken
before.
- Rework the active_mm state machine to be less confusing and more
optimal.
- Rework (simplify) the pick_next_task() slowpath.
- Improve load-balancing on AMD EPYC systems.
- ... and misc cleanups, smaller fixes and improvements - please see

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"Although there isn't tonnes of code in terms of line count, there are
a fair few headline features which I've noted both in the tag and also
in the merge commits when I pulled everything together.
The part I'm most pleased with is that we had 35 contributors this
time around, which feels like a big jump from the usual small group of
core arm64 arch developers. Hopefully they all enjoyed it so much that
they'll continue to contribute, but we'll see.
It's probably worth highlighting that we've pulled in a branch from
the risc-v folks which moves our CPU topology code out to where it can
be shared with others.
Summary:
- 52-bit virtual addressing in the kernel
- New ABI to allow tagged user pointers to be dereferenced by
syscalls
- Early RNG seeding by the bootloader
- Improve robustness of SMP boot
- Fix TLB invalidation in light of recent architectural
clarifications
- Support for i.MX8 DDR PMU
- Remove direct LSE instruction patching in favour of static keys
- Function error injection using kprobes
- Support for the PPTT "thread" flag introduced by ACPI 6.3
- Move PSCI idle code into proper cpuidle driver
- Relaxation of implicit I/O memory barriers
- Build with RELR relocations when toolchain supports them
- Numerous cleanups and non-critical fixes"

Support of boot-time switching between 4- and 5-level paging mode is
upstream since 4.17.
We run internal testing with 5-level paging support enabled for a while
and it doesn't not cause any functional or performance regression on
4-level paging hardware.
The only 5-level paging related regressions I saw were in early boot
code that runs independently from CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL.
The next major release of distributions expected to have
CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y.
Enable the option by default. It may help to catch obscure bugs early.

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

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

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

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

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

Commit cd7764fe9f73 ("KVM: x86: latch INITs while in system management mode")
changed code to latch INIT while vCPU is in SMM and process latched INIT
when leaving SMM. It left a subtle remark in commit message that similar
treatment should also be done while vCPU is in VMX non-root-mode.
However, INIT signals should actually be latched in various vCPU states:
(*) For both Intel and AMD, INIT signals should be latched while vCPU
is in SMM.
(*) For Intel, INIT should also be latched while vCPU is in VMX
operation and later processed when vCPU leaves VMX operation by
executing VMXOFF.
(*) For AMD, INIT should also be latched while vCPU runs with GIF=0
or in guest-mode with intercept defined on INIT signal.
To fix this:
1) Add kvm_x86_ops->apic_init_signal_blocked() such that each CPU vendor
can define the various CPU states in which INIT signals should be
blocked and modify kvm_apic_accept_events() to use it.
2) Modify vmx_check_nested_events() to check for pending INIT signal
while vCPU in guest-mode. If so, emualte vmexit on
EXIT_REASON_INIT_SIGNAL. Note that nSVM should have similar behaviour
but is currently left as a TODO comment to implement in the future
because nSVM don't yet implement svm_check_nested_events().
Note: Currently KVM nVMX implementation don't support VMX wait-for-SIPI
activity state as specified in MSR_IA32_VMX_MISC bits 6:8 exposed to
guest (See nested_vmx_setup_ctls_msrs()).
If and when support for this activity state will be implemented,
kvm_check_nested_events() would need to avoid emulating vmexit on
INIT signal in case activity-state is wait-for-SIPI. In addition,
kvm_apic_accept_events() would need to be modified to avoid discarding
SIPI in case VMX activity-state is wait-for-SIPI but instead delay
SIPI processing to vmx_check_nested_events() that would clear
pending APIC events and emulate vmexit on SIPI.

According to Intel SDM section 25.2 "Other Causes of VM Exits",
When INIT signal is received on a CPU that is running in VMX
non-root mode it should cause an exit with exit-reason of 3.
(See Intel SDM Appendix C "VMX BASIC EXIT REASONS")
This patch introduce the exit-reason definition.

On AMD processors, in PAE 32bit mode, nested KVM instances don't
work. The L0 host get a kernel OOPS, which is related to
arch.mmu->pae_root being NULL.
The reason for this is that when setting up nested KVM instance,
arch.mmu is set to &arch.guest_mmu (while normally, it would be
&arch.root_mmu). However, the initialization and allocation of
pae_root only creates it in root_mmu. KVM code (ie. in
mmu_alloc_shadow_roots) then accesses arch.mmu->pae_root, which is the
unallocated arch.guest_mmu->pae_root.
This fix just allocates (and frees) pae_root in both guest_mmu and
root_mmu (and also lm_root if it was allocated). The allocation is
subject to previous restrictions ie. it won't allocate anything on
64-bit and AFAIK not on Intel.

inject_emulated_exception() returns true if and only if nested page
fault happens. However, page fault can come from guest page tables
walk, either nested or not nested. In both cases we should stop an
attempt to read under RIP and give guest to step over its own page
fault handler.
This is also visible when an emulated instruction causes a #GP fault
and the VMware backdoor is enabled. To handle the VMware backdoor,
KVM intercepts #GP faults; with only the next patch applied,
x86_emulate_instruction() injects a #GP but returns EMULATE_FAIL
instead of EMULATE_DONE. EMULATE_FAIL causes handle_exception_nmi()
(or gp_interception() for SVM) to re-inject the original #GP because it
thinks emulation failed due to a non-VMware opcode. This patch prevents
the issue as x86_emulate_instruction() will return EMULATE_DONE after
injecting the #GP.

Use the recently added tracepoint for logging nested VM-Enter failures
instead of spamming the kernel log when hardware detects a consistency
check failure. Take the opportunity to print the name of the error code
instead of dumping the raw hex number, but limit the symbol table to
error codes that can reasonably be encountered by KVM.
Add an equivalent tracepoint in nested_vmx_check_vmentry_hw(), e.g. so
that tracing of "invalid control field" errors isn't suppressed when
nested early checks are enabled.

Debugging a failed VM-Enter is often like searching for a needle in a
haystack, e.g. there are over 80 consistency checks that funnel into
the "invalid control field" error code. One way to expedite debug is
to run the buggy code as an L1 guest under KVM (and pray that the
failing check is detected by KVM). However, extracting useful debug
information out of L0 KVM requires attaching a debugger to KVM and/or
modifying the source, e.g. to log which check is failing.
Make life a little less painful for VMM developers and add a tracepoint
for failed VM-Enter consistency checks. Ideally the tracepoint would
capture both what check failed and precisely why it failed, but logging
why a checked failed is difficult to do in a generic tracepoint without
resorting to invasive techniques, e.g. generating a custom string on
failure. That being said, for the vast majority of VM-Enter failures
the most difficult step is figuring out exactly what to look at, e.g.
figuring out which bit was incorrectly set in a control field is usually
not too painful once the guilty field as been identified.
To reach a happy medium between precision and ease of use, simply log
the code that detected a failed check, using a macro to execute the
check and log the trace event on failure. This approach enables tracing
arbitrary code, e.g. it's not limited to function calls or specific
formats of checks, and the changes to the existing code are minimally
invasive. A macro with a two-character name is desirable as usage of
the macro doesn't result in overly long lines or confusing alignment,
while still retaining some amount of readability. I.e. a one-character
name is a little too terse, and a three-character name results in the
contents being passed to the macro aligning with an indented line when
the macro is used an in if-statement, e.g.:
if (VCC(nested_vmx_check_long_line_one(...) &&
nested_vmx_check_long_line_two(...)))
return -EINVAL;
And that is the story of how the CC(), a.k.a. Consistency Check, macro
got its name.

Receiving an unexpected exit reason from hardware should be considered
as a severe bug in KVM. Therefore, instead of just injecting #UD to
guest and ignore it, exit to userspace on internal error so that
it could handle it properly (probably by terminating guest).
In addition, prefer to use vcpu_unimpl() instead of WARN_ONCE()
as handling unexpected exit reason should be a rare unexpected
event (that was expected to never happen) and we prefer to print
a message on it every time it occurs to guest.
Furthermore, dump VMCS/VMCB to dmesg to assist diagnosing such cases.

Now that we know we always have the dma-noncoherent.h helpers available
if we are on an architecture with support for non-coherent devices,
we can just call them directly, and remove the calls to the dma-direct
routines, including the fact that we call the dma_direct_map_page
routines but ignore the value returned from it. Instead we now have
Xen wrappers for the arch_sync_dma_for_{device,cpu} helpers that call
the special Xen versions of those routines for foreign pages.
Note that the new helpers get the physical address passed in addition
to the dma address to avoid another translation for the local cache
maintainance. The pfn_valid checks remain on the dma address as in
the old code, even if that looks a little funny.

Move RDMSR and WRMSR emulation into common x86 code to consolidate
nearly identical SVM and VMX code.
Note, consolidating RDMSR introduces an extra indirect call, i.e.
retpoline, due to reaching {svm,vmx}_get_msr() via kvm_x86_ops, but a
guest kernel likely has bigger problems if increasing the latency of
RDMSR VM-Exits by ~70 cycles has a measurable impact on overall VM
performance. E.g. the only recurring RDMSR VM-Exits (after booting) on
my system running Linux 5.2 in the guest are for MSR_IA32_TSC_ADJUST via
arch_cpu_idle_enter().

It easily let people think of "the window now is 4096 which is
shrinked", but the truth is the value actually didn't change (4096).
Let's only dump this message if the value really changed, and we make

The VMX ple_window is 32 bits wide, so logically it can overflow with

good, however the dynamic variable is not. Switching all the
ple_window references to use unsigned int.
The tracepoint changes will also affect SVM, but SVM is using an even
smaller width (16 bits) so it's always fine.
