Pull more kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini: Generic: - Clean up locking of all vCPUs for a VM by using the *_nest_lock() family of functions, and move duplicated code to virt/kvm/. kernel/ patches acked by Peter Zijlstra - Add MGLRU support to the access tracking perf test ARM fixes: - Make the irqbypass hooks resilient to changes in the GSI<->MSI routing, avoiding behind stale vLPI mappings being left behind. The fix is to resolve the VGIC IRQ using the host IRQ (which is stable) and nuking the vLPI mapping upon a routing change - Close another VGIC race where vCPU creation races with VGIC creation, leading to in-flight vCPUs entering the kernel w/o private IRQs allocated - Fix a build issue triggered by the recently added workaround for Ampere's AC04_CPU_23 erratum - Correctly sign-extend the VA when emulating a TLBI instruction potentially targeting a VNCR mapping - Avoid dereferencing a NULL pointer in the VGIC debug code, which can happen if the device doesn't have any mapping yet s390: - Fix interaction between some filesystems and Secure Execution - Some cleanups and refactorings, preparing for an upcoming big series x86: - Wait for target vCPU to ack KVM_REQ_UPDATE_PROTECTED_GUEST_STATE to fix a race between AP destroy and VMRUN - Decrypt and dump the VMSA in dump_vmcb() if debugging enabled for the VM - Refine and harden handling of spurious faults - Add support for ALLOWED_SEV_FEATURES - Add #VMGEXIT to the set of handlers special cased for CONFIG_RETPOLINE=y - Treat DEBUGCTL[5:2] as reserved to pave the way for virtualizing features that utilize those bits - Don't account temporary allocations in sev_send_update_data() - Add support for KVM_CAP_X86_BUS_LOCK_EXIT on SVM, via Bus Lock Threshold - Unify virtualization of IBRS on nested VM-Exit, and cross-vCPU IBPB, between SVM and VMX - Advertise support to userspace for WRMSRNS and PREFETCHI - Rescan I/O APIC routes after handling EOI that needed to be intercepted due to the old/previous routing, but not the new/current routing - Add a module param to control and enumerate support for device posted interrupts - Fix a potential overflow with nested virt on Intel systems running 32-bit kernels - Flush shadow VMCSes on emergency reboot - Add support for SNP to the various SEV selftests - Add a selftest to verify fastops instructions via forced emulation - Refine and optimize KVM's software processing of the posted interrupt bitmap, and share the harvesting code between KVM and the kernel's Posted MSI handler" * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm: (93 commits) rtmutex_api: provide correct extern functions KVM: arm64: vgic-debug: Avoid dereferencing NULL ITE pointer KVM: arm64: vgic-init: Plug vCPU vs. VGIC creation race KVM: arm64: Unmap vLPIs affected by changes to GSI routing information KVM: arm64: Resolve vLPI by host IRQ in vgic_v4_unset_forwarding() KVM: arm64: Protect vLPI translation with vgic_irq::irq_lock KVM: arm64: Use lock guard in vgic_v4_set_forwarding() KVM: arm64: Mask out non-VA bits from TLBI VA* on VNCR invalidation arm64: sysreg: Drag linux/kconfig.h to work around vdso build issue KVM: s390: Simplify and move pv code KVM: s390: Refactor and split some gmap helpers KVM: s390: Remove unneeded srcu lock s390: Remove unneeded includes s390/uv: Improve splitting of large folios that cannot be split while dirty s390/uv: Always return 0 from s390_wiggle_split_folio() if successful s390/uv: Don't return 0 from make_hva_secure() if the operation was not successful rust: add helper for mutex_trylock RISC-V: KVM: use kvm_trylock_all_vcpus when locking all vCPUs KVM: arm64: use kvm_trylock_all_vcpus when locking all vCPUs x86: KVM: SVM: use kvm_lock_all_vcpus instead of a custom implementation ...
2025-05-27locking/mutex: implement mutex_lock_killable_nest_lockMaxim Levitsky1-3/+4
KVM's SEV intra-host migration code needs to lock all vCPUs of the source and the target VM, before it proceeds with the migration. The number of vCPUs that belong to each VM is not bounded by anything except a self-imposed KVM limit of CONFIG_KVM_MAX_NR_VCPUS vCPUs which is significantly larger than the depth of lockdep's lock stack. Luckily, the locks in both of the cases mentioned above, are held under the 'kvm->lock' of each VM, which means that we can use the little known lockdep feature called a "nest_lock" to support this use case in a cleaner way, compared to the way it's currently done. Implement and expose 'mutex_lock_killable_nest_lock' for this purpose.

2025-05-27locking/mutex: implement mutex_trylock_nestedMaxim Levitsky1-3/+11
Despite the fact that several lockdep-related checks are skipped when calling trylock* versions of the locking primitives, for example mutex_trylock, each time the mutex is acquired, a held_lock is still placed onto the lockdep stack by __lock_acquire() which is called regardless of whether the trylock* or regular locking API was used. This means that if the caller successfully acquires more than MAX_LOCK_DEPTH locks of the same class, even when using mutex_trylock, lockdep will still complain that the maximum depth of the held lock stack has been reached and disable itself. For example, the following error currently occurs in the ARM version of KVM, once the code tries to lock all vCPUs of a VM configured with more than MAX_LOCK_DEPTH vCPUs, a situation that can easily happen on modern systems, where having more than 48 CPUs is common, and it's also common to run VMs that have vCPU counts approaching that number: [ 328.171264] BUG: MAX_LOCK_DEPTH too low! [ 328.175227] turning off the locking correctness validator. [ 328.180726] Please attach the output of /proc/lock_stat to the bug report [ 328.187531] depth: 48 max: 48!

The action of 'nested lock' being provided to lockdep's lock_acquire(), causes the lockdep to detect that the top of the held lock stack contains a lock of the same class and then increment its reference counter instead of pushing a new held_lock item onto that stack. See __lock_acquire for more information.

2025-05-11hung_task: replace blocker_mutex with encoded blockerLance Yang1-2/+3
Patch series "hung_task: extend blocking task stacktrace dump to semaphore", v5. Inspired by mutex blocker tracking[1], this patch series extend the feature to not only dump the blocker task holding a mutex but also to support semaphores. Unlike mutexes, semaphores lack explicit ownership tracking, making it challenging to identify the root cause of hangs. To address this, we introduce a last_holder field to the semaphore structure, which is updated when a task successfully calls down() and cleared during up(). The assumption is that if a task is blocked on a semaphore, the holders must not have released it. While this does not guarantee that the last holder is one of the current blockers, it likely provides a practical hint for diagnosing semaphore-related stalls. With this change, the hung task detector can now show blocker task's info like below: [Tue Apr 8 12:19:07 2025] INFO: task cat:945 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

The blocker filed can store both the lock addrees and the lock type, with LSB used to encode the type as Masami suggested, making it easier to extend the feature to cover other types of locks. Also, once the lock type is determined, we can directly extract the address and cast it to a lock pointer ;) Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20250414145945.84916-1-ioworker0@gmail.com Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/174046694331.2194069.15472952050240807469.stgit@mhiramat.tok.corp.google.com [1] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20250414145945.84916-2-ioworker0@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Mingzhe Yang <mingzhe.yang@ly.com> Signed-off-by: Lance Yang <ioworker0@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@kernel.org> Suggested-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Suggested-by: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@kernel.org> Cc: Anna Schumaker <anna.schumaker@oracle.com> Cc: Boqun Feng <boqun.feng@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Joel Granados <joel.granados@kernel.org> Cc: John Stultz <jstultz@google.com> Cc: Kent Overstreet <kent.overstreet@linux.dev> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Sergey Senozhatsky <senozhatsky@chromium.org> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Tomasz Figa <tfiga@chromium.org> Cc: Waiman Long <longman@redhat.com> Cc: Will Deacon <will@kernel.org> Cc: Yongliang Gao <leonylgao@tencent.com> Cc: Zi Li <amaindex@outlook.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>

2025-03-21hung_task: show the blocker task if the task is hung on mutexMasami Hiramatsu (Google)1-0/+14
Patch series "hung_task: Dump the blocking task stacktrace", v4. The hung_task detector is very useful for detecting the lockup. However, since it only dumps the blocked (uninterruptible sleep) processes, it is not enough to identify the root cause of that lockup. For example, if a process holds a mutex and sleep an event in interruptible state long time, the other processes will wait on the mutex in uninterruptible state. In this case, the waiter processes are dumped, but the blocker process is not shown because it is sleep in interruptible state. This adds a feature to dump the blocker task which holds a mutex when detecting a hung task. e.g. INFO: task cat:115 blocked for more than 122 seconds.

This patch (of 2): The "hung_task" shows a long-time uninterruptible slept task, but most often, it's blocked on a mutex acquired by another task. Without dumping such a task, investigating the root cause of the hung task problem is very difficult. This introduce task_struct::blocker_mutex to point the mutex lock which this task is waiting for. Since the mutex has "owner" information, we can find the owner task and dump it with hung tasks. Note: the owner can be changed while dumping the owner task, so this is "likely" the owner of the mutex. With this change, the hung task shows blocker task's info like below; INFO: task cat:115 blocked for more than 122 seconds.

2023-12-01locking/mutex: Document that mutex_unlock() is non-atomicJann Horn1-0/+5
I have seen several cases of attempts to use mutex_unlock() to release an object such that the object can then be freed by another task. This is not safe because mutex_unlock(), in the MUTEX_FLAG_WAITERS && !MUTEX_FLAG_HANDOFF case, accesses the mutex structure after having marked it as unlocked; so mutex_unlock() requires its caller to ensure that the mutex stays alive until mutex_unlock() returns. If MUTEX_FLAG_WAITERS is set and there are real waiters, those waiters have to keep the mutex alive, but we could have a spurious MUTEX_FLAG_WAITERS left if an interruptible/killable waiter bailed between the points where __mutex_unlock_slowpath() did the cmpxchg reading the flags and where it acquired the wait_lock. ( With spinlocks, that kind of code pattern is allowed and, from what I remember, used in several places in the kernel. ) Document this, such a semantic difference between mutexes and spinlocks is fairly unintuitive.

Have the trace_contention_*() tracepoints consistently include adaptive spinning. In order to differentiate between the spinning and non-spinning states add LCB_F_MUTEX and combine with LCB_F_SPIN. The consequence is that a mutex contention can now triggler multiple _begin() tracepoints before triggering an _end(). Additionally, this fixes one path where mutex would trigger _end() without ever seeing a _begin(). Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org>

This is also useful in regulator_lock_nested, which may avoid dropping regulator_nesting_mutex in the uncontended path, so use it there.

2021-08-20locking/ww_mutex: Initialize waiter.ww_ctx properlySebastian Andrzej Siewior1-1/+1
The consolidation of the debug code for mutex waiter intialization sets waiter::ww_ctx to a poison value unconditionally. For regular mutexes this is intended to catch the case where waiter_ww_ctx is dereferenced accidentally. For ww_mutex the poison value has to be overwritten either with a context pointer or NULL for ww_mutexes without context. The rework broke this as it made the store conditional on the context pointer instead of the argument which signals whether ww_mutex code should be compiled in or optiized out. As a result waiter::ww_ctx ends up with the poison pointer for contextless ww_mutexes which causes a later dereference of the poison pointer because it is != NULL. Use the build argument instead so for ww_mutex the poison value is always overwritten.

2021-07-07locking/mutex: Introduce __mutex_trylock_or_handoff()Peter Zijlstra1-24/+36
Yanfei reported that it is possible to loose HANDOFF when we race with mutex_unlock() and end up setting HANDOFF on an unlocked mutex. At that point anybody can steal it, losing HANDOFF in the process. If this happens often enough, we can in fact starve the top waiter. Solve this by folding the 'set HANDOFF' operation into the trylock operation, such that either we acquire the lock, or it gets HANDOFF set. This avoids having HANDOFF set on an unlocked mutex.

Which would then give: if (ww_ctx || !first) first = __mutex_waiter_is_first(lock, &waiter); if (first) __mutex_set_flag(lock, MUTEX_FLAG_HANDOFF); But because 'ww_ctx || !first' is basically 'always' and the test for first is relatively cheap, omit that first branch entirely.

The use_ww_ctx flag is passed to mutex_optimistic_spin(), but the function doesn't use it. The frequent use of the (use_ww_ctx && ww_ctx) combination is repetitive. In fact, ww_ctx should not be used at all if !use_ww_ctx. Simplify ww_mutex code by dropping use_ww_ctx from mutex_optimistic_spin() an clear ww_ctx if !use_ww_ctx.

2019-12-11Revert "locking/mutex: Complain upon mutex API misuse in IRQ contexts"Davidlohr Bueso1-4/+0
This ended up causing some noise in places such as rxrpc running in softirq. The warning is misleading in this case as the mutex trylock and unlock operations are done within the same context; and therefore we need not worry about the PI-boosting issues that comes along with no single-owner lock guarantees. While we don't want to support this in mutexes, there is no way out of this yet; so lets get rid of the WARNs for now, as it is only fair to code that has historically relied on non-preemptible softirq guarantees. In addition, changing the lock type is also unviable: exclusive rwsems have the same issue (just not the WARN_ON) and counting semaphores would introduce a performance hit as mutexes are a lot more optimized.

2018-07-03locking: Implement an algorithm choice for Wound-Wait mutexesThomas Hellstrom1-17/+148
The current Wound-Wait mutex algorithm is actually not Wound-Wait but Wait-Die. Implement also Wound-Wait as a per-ww-class choice. Wound-Wait is, contrary to Wait-Die a preemptive algorithm and is known to generate fewer backoffs. Testing reveals that this is true if the number of simultaneous contending transactions is small. As the number of simultaneous contending threads increases, Wait-Wound becomes inferior to Wait-Die in terms of elapsed time. Possibly due to the larger number of held locks of sleeping transactions. Update documentation and callers.
