Manually generate the PDPTR reserved bit mask when explicitly loading
PDPTRs. The reserved bits that are being tracked by the MMU reflect the
current paging mode, which is unlikely to be PAE paging in the vast
majority of flows that use load_pdptrs(), e.g. CR0 and CR4 emulation,
__set_sregs(), etc... This can cause KVM to incorrectly signal a bad
PDPTR, or more likely, miss a reserved bit check and subsequently fail
a VM-Enter due to a bad VMCS.GUEST_PDPTR.
Add a one off helper to generate the reserved bits instead of sharing
code across the MMU's calculations and the PDPTR emulation. The PDPTR
reserved bits are basically set in stone, and pushing a helper into
the MMU's calculation adds unnecessary complexity without improving
readability.
Oppurtunistically fix/update the comment for load_pdptrs().
Note, the buggy commit also introduced a deliberate functional change,
"Also remove bit 5-6 from rsvd_bits_mask per latest SDM.", which was
effectively (and correctly) reverted by commit cd9ae5fe47df ("KVM: x86:
Fix page-tables reserved bits"). A bit of SDM archaeology shows that
the SDM from late 2008 had a bug (likely a copy+paste error) where it
listed bits 6:5 as AVL and A for PDPTEs used for 4k entries but reserved
for 2mb entries. I.e. the SDM contradicted itself, and bits 6:5 are and
always have been reserved.

We can easily route hardware interrupts directly into VM context when
they target the "Fixed" or "LowPriority" delivery modes.
However, on modes such as "SMI" or "Init", we need to go via KVM code
to actually put the vCPU into a different mode of operation, so we can
not post the interrupt
Add code in the VMX and SVM PI logic to explicitly refuse to establish
posted mappings for advanced IRQ deliver modes. This reflects the logic
in __apic_accept_irq() which also only ever passes Fixed and LowPriority
interrupts as posted interrupts into the guest.
This fixes a bug I have with code which configures real hardware to
inject virtual SMIs into my guest.

Add emulation (spoofing) of the SGDT, SIDT, and SMSW instructions for 64-bit
processes.
Wine users have encountered a number of 64-bit Windows games that use
these instructions (particularly SGDT), and were crashing when run on
UMIP-enabled systems.

KVM guests with commit c8c4076723da ("x86/timer: Skip PIT initialization on
modern chipsets") applied to guest kernel have been observed to have
unusually higher CPU usage with symptoms of increase in vm exits for HLT
and MSW_WRITE (MSR_IA32_TSCDEADLINE).
This is caused by older QEMUs lacking support for X86_FEATURE_ARAT. lapic
clock retains CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_C3STOP and nohz stays inactive. There's no
usable broadcast device either.
Do the PIT initialization if guest CPU lacks X86_FEATURE_ARAT. On real
hardware it shouldn't matter as ARAT and DEADLINE come together.

This reverts commit 558682b5291937a70748d36fd9ba757fb25b99ae.
Chris Wilson reports that it breaks his CPU hotplug test scripts. In
particular, it breaks offlining and then re-onlining the boot CPU, which
we treat specially (and the BIOS does too).
The symptoms are that we can offline the CPU, but it then does not come
back online again:
smpboot: CPU 0 is now offline
smpboot: Booting Node 0 Processor 0 APIC 0x0
smpboot: do_boot_cpu failed(-1) to wakeup CPU#0
Thomas says he knows why it's broken (my personal suspicion: our magic
handling of the "cpu0_logical_apicid" thing), but for 5.3 the right fix
is to just revert it, since we've never touched the LDR bits before, and
it's not worth the risk to do anything else at this stage.
[ Hotpluging of the boot CPU is special anyway, and should be off by
default. See the "BOOTPARAM_HOTPLUG_CPU0" config option and the
cpu0_hotplug kernel parameter.
In general you should not do it, and it has various known limitations
(hibernate and suspend require the boot CPU, for example).
But it should work, even if the boot CPU is special and needs careful
treatment - Linus ]

Boris suggests to make a local label (prepend ".L") to these functions
to eliminate them from the symbol table. These are functions with very
local names and really should not be visible anywhere.
Note that objtool won't see these functions anymore (to generate ORC
debug info). But all the functions are not annotated with ENDPROC, so
they won't have objtool's attention anyway.

bogus_64_magic is only a dead-end loop. There is no need for an
out-of-order function (and unannotated local label), so just handle it
in-place and also store 0xbad-m-a-g-i-c to %rcx beforehand, in case
someone is inspecting registers.
Here a qemu+gdb example:

The last change to this Makefile caused relocation errors when loading
a kdump kernel. Restore -mcmodel=large (not -mcmodel=kernel),
-ffreestanding, and -fno-zero-initialized-bsss, without reverting to
the former practice of resetting KBUILD_CFLAGS.
Purgatory.ro is a standalone binary that is not linked against the
rest of the kernel. Its image is copied into an array that is linked
to the kernel, and from there kexec relocates it wherever it desires.
With the previous change to compiler flags, the error "kexec: Overflow
in relocation type 11 value 0x11fffd000" was encountered when trying
to load the crash kernel. This is from kexec code trying to relocate
the purgatory.ro object.
From the error message, relocation type 11 is R_X86_64_32S. The
x86_64 ABI says:
"The R_X86_64_32 and R_X86_64_32S relocations truncate the
computed value to 32-bits. The linker must verify that the
generated value for the R_X86_64_32 (R_X86_64_32S) relocation
zero-extends (sign-extends) to the original 64-bit value."
This type of relocation doesn't work when kexec chooses to place the
purgatory binary in memory that is not reachable with 32 bit
addresses.
The compiler flag -mcmodel=kernel allows those type of relocations to
be emitted, so revert to using -mcmodel=large as was done before.
Also restore the -ffreestanding and -fno-zero-initialized-bss flags
because they are appropriate for a stand alone piece of object code
which doesn't explicitly zero the bss, and one other report has said
undefined symbols are encountered without -ffreestanding.
These identical compiler flag changes need to happen for every object
that becomes part of the purgatory.ro object, so gather them together
first into PURGATORY_CFLAGS_REMOVE and PURGATORY_CFLAGS, and then
apply them to each of the objects that have C source. Do not apply
any of these flags to kexec-purgatory.o, which is not part of the
standalone object but part of the kernel proper.

Kbuild provides per-file compiler flag addition/removal:
CFLAGS_<basetarget>.o
CFLAGS_REMOVE_<basetarget>.o
AFLAGS_<basetarget>.o
AFLAGS_REMOVE_<basetarget>.o
CPPFLAGS_<basetarget>.lds
HOSTCFLAGS_<basetarget>.o
HOSTCXXFLAGS_<basetarget>.o
The <basetarget> is the filename of the target with its directory and
suffix stripped.
This syntax comes into a trouble when two files with the same basename
appear in one Makefile, for example:
obj-y += foo.o
obj-y += dir/foo.o
CFLAGS_foo.o := <some-flags>
Here, the <some-flags> applies to both foo.o and dir/foo.o
The real world problem is:
scripts/kconfig/util.c
scripts/kconfig/lxdialog/util.c
Both files are compiled into scripts/kconfig/mconf, but only the
latter should be given with the ncurses flags.
It is more sensible to use the relative path to the Makefile, like this:
obj-y += foo.o
CFLAGS_foo.o := <some-flags>
obj-y += dir/foo.o
CFLAGS_dir/foo.o := <other-flags>
At first, I attempted to replace $(basetarget) with $*. The $* variable
is replaced with the stem ('%') part in a pattern rule. This works with
most of cases, but does not for explicit rules.
For example, arch/ia64/lib/Makefile reuses rule_as_o_S in its own
explicit rules, so $* will be empty, resulting in ignoring the per-file
AFLAGS.
I introduced a new variable, target-stem, which can be used also from
explicit rules.

Most dma_map_ops instances are IOMMUs that work perfectly fine in 32-bits
of IOVA space, and the generic direct mapping code already provides its
own routines that is intelligent based on the amount of memory actually
present. Wire up the dma-direct routine for the ARM direct mapping code
as well, and otherwise default to the constant 32-bit mask. This way
we only need to override it for the occasional odd IOMMU that requires
64-bit IOVA support, or IOMMU drivers that are more efficient if they
can fall back to the direct mapping.

While the default ->mmap and ->get_sgtable implementations work for the
majority of our dma_map_ops impementations they are inherently safe
for others that don't use the page allocator or CMA and/or use their
own way of remapping not covered by the common code. So remove the
defaults if these methods are not wired up, but instead wire up the
default implementations for all safe instances.

The AMD Ryzen gen 3 processors came with a different PCI IDs for the

unlike for his patch series, I had already Cc:ed the x86 people and
they already reviewed the changes. Since Vicki has not answered to

When cpus != maxcpus cpuidle-haltpoll will fail to register all vcpus
past the online ones and thus fail to register the idle driver.
This is because cpuidle_add_sysfs() will return with -ENODEV as a
consequence from get_cpu_device() return no device for a non-existing
CPU.
Instead switch to cpuidle_register_driver() and manually register each
of the present cpus through cpuhp_setup_state() callbacks and future
ones that get onlined or offlined. This mimmics similar logic that
intel_idle does.

SD_BALANCE_{FORK,EXEC} and SD_WAKE_AFFINE are stripped in sd_init()
for any sched domains with a NUMA distance greater than 2 hops
(RECLAIM_DISTANCE). The idea being that it's expensive to balance
across domains that far apart.
However, as is rather unfortunately explained in:
commit 32e45ff43eaf ("mm: increase RECLAIM_DISTANCE to 30")
the value for RECLAIM_DISTANCE is based on node distance tables from
2011-era hardware.
Current AMD EPYC machines have the following NUMA node distances:
node distances:
node 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
0: 10 16 16 16 32 32 32 32
1: 16 10 16 16 32 32 32 32
2: 16 16 10 16 32 32 32 32
3: 16 16 16 10 32 32 32 32
4: 32 32 32 32 10 16 16 16
5: 32 32 32 32 16 10 16 16
6: 32 32 32 32 16 16 10 16
7: 32 32 32 32 16 16 16 10
where 2 hops is 32.
The result is that the scheduler fails to load balance properly across
NUMA nodes on different sockets -- 2 hops apart.
For example, pinning 16 busy threads to NUMA nodes 0 (CPUs 0-7) and 4
(CPUs 32-39) like so,
$ numactl -C 0-7,32-39 ./spinner 16
causes all threads to fork and remain on node 0 until the active
balancer kicks in after a few seconds and forcibly moves some threads
to node 4.
Override node_reclaim_distance for AMD Zen.

When the 'start' parameter is >= 0xFF000000 on 32-bit
systems, or >= 0xFFFFFFFF'FF000000 on 64-bit systems,
fill_gva_list() gets into an infinite loop.
With such inputs, 'cur' overflows after adding HV_TLB_FLUSH_UNIT
and always compares as less than end. Memory is filled with
guest virtual addresses until the system crashes.
Fix this by never incrementing 'cur' to be larger than 'end'.

Commit
a90118c445cc ("x86/boot: Save fields explicitly, zero out everything else")
now zeroes the secure boot setting information (enabled/disabled/...)
passed by the boot loader or by the kernel's EFI handover mechanism.
The problem manifests itself with signed kernels using the EFI handoff
protocol with grub and the kernel loses the information whether secure
boot is enabled in the firmware, i.e., the log message "Secure boot
enabled" becomes "Secure boot could not be determined".
efi_main() arch/x86/boot/compressed/eboot.c sets this field early but it
is subsequently zeroed by the above referenced commit.
Include boot_params.secure_boot in the preserve field list.

Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A set of fixes for x86:
- Fix the bogus detection of 32bit user mode for uretprobes which
caused corruption of the user return address resulting in
application crashes. In the uprobes handler in_ia32_syscall() is
obviously always returning false on a 64bit kernel. Use
user_64bit_mode() instead which works correctly.
- Prevent large page splitting when ftrace flips RW/RO on the kernel
text which caused iTLB performance issues. Ftrace wants to be
converted to text_poke() which avoids the problem, but for now
allow large page preservation in the static protections check when
the change request spawns a full large page.
- Prevent arch_dynirq_lower_bound() from returning 0 when the IOAPIC
is configured via device tree. In the device tree case the GSI 1:1
mapping is meaningless therefore the lower bound which protects the
GSI range on ACPI machines is irrelevant. Return the lower bound
which the core hands to the function instead of blindly returning 0
which causes the core to allocate the invalid virtual interupt
number 0 which in turn prevents all drivers from allocating and
requesting an interrupt.
- Remove the bogus initialization of LDR and DFR in the 32bit bigsmp
APIC driver. That uses physical destination mode where LDR/DFR are
ignored, but the initialization and the missing clear of LDR caused
the APIC to be left in a inconsistent state on kexec/reboot.
- Clear LDR when clearing the APIC registers so the APIC is in a well
defined state.
- Initialize variables proper in the find_trampoline_placement()
code.
- Silence GCC( build warning for the real mode part of the build"

When counting dispatched micro-ops with cnt_ctl=1, in order to prevent
sample bias, IBS hardware preloads the least significant 7 bits of
current count (IbsOpCurCnt) with random values, such that, after the
interrupt is handled and counting resumes, the next sample taken
will be slightly perturbed.
The current count bitfield is in the IBS execution control h/w register,
alongside the maximum count field.
Currently, the IBS driver writes that register with the maximum count,
leaving zeroes to fill the current count field, thereby overwriting
the random bits the hardware preloaded for itself.
Fix the driver to actually retain and carry those random bits from the
read of the IBS control register, through to its write, instead of
overwriting the lower current count bits with zeroes.
Tested with:
perf record -c 100001 -e ibs_op/cnt_ctl=1/pp -a -C 0 taskset -c 0 <workload>

Tested on Family 15h and 17h machines.
Machines prior to family 10h Rev. C don't have the RDWROPCNT capability,
and have the IbsOpCurCnt bitfield reserved, so this patch shouldn't
affect their operation.
It is unknown why commit db98c5faf8cb ("perf/x86: Implement 64-bit
counter support for IBS") ignored the lower 4 bits of the IbsOpCurCnt
field; the number of preloaded random bits has always been 7, AFAICT.

When PTI is disabled at boot time either because the CPU is not affected or
PTI has been disabled on the command line, the boot code still calls into
pti_finalize() which then unconditionally invokes:
pti_clone_entry_text()
pti_clone_kernel_text()
pti_clone_kernel_text() was called unconditionally before the 32bit support
was added and 32bit added the call to pti_clone_entry_text().
The call has no side effects as cloning the page tables into the available
second one, which was allocated for PTI does not create damage. But it does
not make sense either and in case that this functionality would be extended
later this might actually lead to hard to diagnose issues.
Neither function should be called when PTI is runtime disabled. Make the
invocation conditional.

pti_clone_pmds() assumes that the supplied address is either:
- properly PUD/PMD aligned
or
- the address is actually mapped which means that independently
of the mapping level (PUD/PMD/PTE) the next higher mapping
exists.
If that's not the case the unaligned address can be incremented by PUD or
PMD size incorrectly. All callers supply mapped and/or aligned addresses,
but for the sake of robustness it's better to handle that case properly and
to emit a warning.

ftrace does not use text_poke() for enabling trace functionality. It uses
its own mechanism and flips the whole kernel text to RW and back to RO.
The CPA rework removed a loop based check of 4k pages which tried to
preserve a large page by checking each 4k page whether the change would
actually cover all pages in the large page.
This resulted in endless loops for nothing as in testing it turned out that
it actually never preserved anything. Of course testing missed to include
ftrace, which is the one and only case which benefitted from the 4k loop.
As a consequence enabling function tracing or ftrace based kprobes results
in a full 4k split of the kernel text, which affects iTLB performance.
The kernel RO protection is the only valid case where this can actually
preserve large pages.
All other static protections (RO data, data NX, PCI, BIOS) are truly
static. So a conflict with those protections which results in a split
should only ever happen when a change of memory next to a protected region
is attempted. But these conflicts are rightfully splitting the large page
to preserve the protected regions. In fact a change to the protected
regions itself is a bug and is warned about.
Add an exception for the static protection check for kernel text RO when
the to be changed region spawns a full large page which allows to preserve
the large mappings. This also prevents the syslog to be spammed about CPA
violations when ftrace is used.
The exception needs to be removed once ftrace switched over to text_poke()
which avoids the whole issue.
