<content type='text'>
commit 6e2edd6371a497a6350bb735534c9bda2a31f43d upstream.

Commit 18107f8a2df6 ("arm64: Support execute-only permissions with
Enhanced PAN") re-introduced execute-only permissions when EPAN is
available. When EPAN is not available, arch_filter_pgprot() is supposed
to change a PAGE_EXECONLY permission into PAGE_READONLY_EXEC. However,
if BTI or MTE are present, such check does not detect the execute-only
pgprot in the presence of PTE_GP (BTI) or MT_NORMAL_TAGGED (MTE),
allowing the user to request PROT_EXEC with PROT_BTI or PROT_MTE.

Remove the arch_filter_pgprot() function, change the default VM_EXEC
permissions to PAGE_READONLY_EXEC and update the protection_map[] array
at core_initcall() if EPAN is detected.

gcc warns about undefined behavior the vmalloc code when building
with CONFIG_ARM64_PA_BITS_52, when the 'idx++' in the argument to
__phys_to_pte_val() is evaluated twice:

mm/vmalloc.c: In function 'vmap_pfn_apply':
mm/vmalloc.c:2800:58: error: operation on 'data-&gt;idx' may be undefined [-Werror=sequence-point]

      |                              ^~~~~~~

I have no idea why this never showed up earlier, but the safest
workaround appears to be changing those macros into inline functions
so the arguments get evaluated only once.

Section mapping at PUD level is supported only on 4K pages and currently it
gets verified with explicit #ifdef or IS_ENABLED() constructs. This adds a
new helper pud_sect_supported() for this purpose, which particularly cleans
up the HugeTLB code path. It updates relevant switch statements with checks
for __PAGETABLE_PMD_FOLDED in order to avoid build failures caused with two
identical switch case values in those code blocks.

<title>mm: define default value for FIRST_USER_ADDRESS</title>
<updated>2021-07-01T18:06:02Z</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=fac7757e1fb05b75c8e22d4f8fe2f6c9c4d7edca'/>
<id>urn:sha1:fac7757e1fb05b75c8e22d4f8fe2f6c9c4d7edca</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently most platforms define FIRST_USER_ADDRESS as 0UL duplication the
same code all over.  Instead just define a generic default value (i.e 0UL)
for FIRST_USER_ADDRESS and let the platforms override when required.  This
makes it much cleaner with reduced code.

The default FIRST_USER_ADDRESS here would be skipped in &lt;linux/pgtable.h&gt;
when the given platform overrides its value via &lt;asm/pgtable.h&gt;.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "This covers all architectures (except MIPS) so I don't expect any
  other feature pull requests this merge window.

  ARM:

   - Add MTE support in guests, complete with tag save/restore interface

   - Reduce the impact of CMOs by moving them in the page-table code

   - Allow device block mappings at stage-2

   - Reduce the footprint of the vmemmap in protected mode

   - Support the vGIC on dumb systems such as the Apple M1

   - Add selftest infrastructure to support multiple configuration and
     apply that to PMU/non-PMU setups

   - Add selftests for the debug architecture

   - The usual crop of PMU fixes

  PPC:

   - Support for the H_RPT_INVALIDATE hypercall

   - Conversion of Book3S entry/exit to C

   - Bug fixes

  S390:

   - new HW facilities for guests

   - make inline assembly more robust with KASAN and co

  x86:

   - Allow userspace to handle emulation errors (unknown instructions)

   - Lazy allocation of the rmap (host physical -&gt; guest physical
     address)

   - Support for virtualizing TSC scaling on VMX machines

   - Optimizations to avoid shattering huge pages at the beginning of
     live migration

   - Support for initializing the PDPTRs without loading them from
     memory

   - Many TLB flushing cleanups

   - Refuse to load if two-stage paging is available but NX is not (this
     has been a requirement in practice for over a year)

   - A large series that separates the MMU mode (WP/SMAP/SMEP etc.) from
     CR0/CR4/EFER, using the MMU mode everywhere once it is computed
     from the CPU registers

   - Use PM notifier to notify the guest about host suspend or hibernate

   - Support for passing arguments to Hyper-V hypercalls using XMM
     registers

   - Support for Hyper-V TLB flush hypercalls and enlightened MSR bitmap
     on AMD processors

   - Hide Hyper-V hypercalls that are not included in the guest CPUID

   - Fixes for live migration of virtual machines that use the Hyper-V
     "enlightened VMCS" optimization of nested virtualization

   - Bugfixes (not many)

  Generic:

   - Support for retrieving statistics without debugfs

   - Cleanups for the KVM selftests API"

A KVM guest could store tags in a page even if the VMM hasn't mapped
the page with PROT_MTE. So when restoring pages from swap we will
need to check to see if there are any saved tags even if !pte_tagged().

However don't check pages for which pte_access_permitted() returns false
as these will not have been swapped out.
