Guest-side KVM async #PF ABI cleanup for 6.9 Delete kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data.enabled to fix a goof in KVM's async #PF ABI where the enabled field pushes the size of "struct kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data" from 64 to 68 bytes, i.e. beyond a single cache line. The enabled field is purely a guest-side flag that Linux-as-a-guest uses to track whether or not the guest has enabled async #PF support. The actual flag that is passed to the host, i.e. to KVM proper, is a single bit in a synthetic MSR, MSR_KVM_ASYNC_PF_EN, i.e. is in a location completely unrelated to the shared kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data structure. Simply drop the the field and use a dedicated guest-side per-CPU variable to fix the ABI, as opposed to fixing the documentation to match reality. KVM has never consumed kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data.enabled, so the odds of the ABI change breaking anything are extremely low.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton: - Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series "implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390". - More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series "Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios" "mm: convert mm counter to take a folio" - Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the scalability of zswap rb-tree". - Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some swap-intensive situations. - And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap: optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest. - zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series "mm: zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()". - In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is hotplugged as system memory. - Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups", which does that. - More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series "mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable" "selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases" "Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements" "mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself" - In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving policy wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion rather than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory environments appearing with CXL. - Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump: Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute". - Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests". - Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol") format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party tools to parse and process out selftesting results. - Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the process has a large number of pte-mapped folios. - David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown situations. The microbenchmark improvements are nice. - And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings" Ryan Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's series "Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work. - In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page faults. He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code. - In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction test", Mark Brown did what the title claims. - Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and refactoring". - Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend zswap kselftests" does as claimed. - In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess in our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing data caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary. - Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides dramatic improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during certain userfaultfd operations. - Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador in his series "page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations" "page_owner: Fixup and cleanup" - Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability improvements in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It realizes a 12x improvement for a certain microbenchmark. - Some kexec/crash cleanup work from Baoquan He in the series "Split crash out from kexec and clean up related config items". - Some zsmalloc maintenance work from Chengming Zhou in the series "mm/zsmalloc: fix and optimize objects/page migration" "mm/zsmalloc: some cleanup for get/set_zspage_mapping()" - Zi Yan has taught the MM to perform compaction on folios larger than order=0. This a step along the path to implementaton of the merging of large anonymous folios. The series is named "Enable >0 order folio memory compaction". - Christoph Hellwig has done quite a lot of cleanup work in the pagecache writeback code in his series "convert write_cache_pages() to an iterator". - Some modest hugetlb cleanups and speedups in Vishal Moola's series "Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock". - Zi Yan has changed the page splitting code so we can split huge pages into sizes other than order-0 to better utilize large folios. The series is named "Split a folio to any lower order folios". - David Hildenbrand has contributed the series "mm: remove total_mapcount()", a cleanup. - Matthew Wilcox has sought to improve the performance of bulk memory freeing in his series "Rearrange batched folio freeing". - Gang Li's series "hugetlb: parallelize hugetlb page init on boot" provides large improvements in bootup times on large machines which are configured to use large numbers of hugetlb pages. - Matthew Wilcox's series "PageFlags cleanups" does that. - Qi Zheng's series "minor fixes and supplement for ptdesc" does that also. S390 is affected. - Cleanups to our pagemap utility functions from Peter Xu in his series "mm/treewide: Replace pXd_large() with pXd_leaf()". - Nico Pache has fixed a few things with our hugepage selftests in his series "selftests/mm: Improve Hugepage Test Handling in MM Selftests". - Also, of course, many singleton patches to many things.

Pull x86 FRED support from Thomas Gleixner: "Support for x86 Fast Return and Event Delivery (FRED). FRED is a replacement for IDT event delivery on x86 and addresses most of the technical nightmares which IDT exposes: 1) Exception cause registers like CR2 need to be manually preserved in nested exception scenarios. 2) Hardware interrupt stack switching is suboptimal for nested exceptions as the interrupt stack mechanism rewinds the stack on each entry which requires a massive effort in the low level entry of #NMI code to handle this. 3) No hardware distinction between entry from kernel or from user which makes establishing kernel context more complex than it needs to be especially for unconditionally nestable exceptions like NMI. 4) NMI nesting caused by IRET unconditionally reenabling NMIs, which is a problem when the perf NMI takes a fault when collecting a stack trace. 5) Partial restore of ESP when returning to a 16-bit segment 6) Limitation of the vector space which can cause vector exhaustion on large systems. 7) Inability to differentiate NMI sources FRED addresses these shortcomings by: 1) An extended exception stack frame which the CPU uses to save exception cause registers. This ensures that the meta information for each exception is preserved on stack and avoids the extra complexity of preserving it in software. 2) Hardware interrupt stack switching is non-rewinding if a nested exception uses the currently interrupt stack. 3) The entry points for kernel and user context are separate and GS BASE handling which is required to establish kernel context for per CPU variable access is done in hardware. 4) NMIs are now nesting protected. They are only reenabled on the return from NMI. 5) FRED guarantees full restore of ESP 6) FRED does not put a limitation on the vector space by design because it uses a central entry points for kernel and user space and the CPUstores the entry type (exception, trap, interrupt, syscall) on the entry stack along with the vector number. The entry code has to demultiplex this information, but this removes the vector space restriction. The first hardware implementations will still have the current restricted vector space because lifting this limitation requires further changes to the local APIC. 7) FRED stores the vector number and meta information on stack which allows having more than one NMI vector in future hardware when the required local APIC changes are in place. The series implements the initial FRED support by: - Reworking the existing entry and IDT handling infrastructure to accomodate for the alternative entry mechanism. - Expanding the stack frame to accomodate for the extra 16 bytes FRED requires to store context and meta information - Providing FRED specific C entry points for events which have information pushed to the extended stack frame, e.g. #PF and #DB. - Providing FRED specific C entry points for #NMI and #MCE - Implementing the FRED specific ASM entry points and the C code to demultiplex the events - Providing detection and initialization mechanisms and the necessary tweaks in context switching, GS BASE handling etc. The FRED integration aims for maximum code reuse vs the existing IDT implementation to the extent possible and the deviation in hot paths like context switching are handled with alternatives to minimalize the impact. The low level entry and exit paths are seperate due to the extended stack frame and the hardware based GS BASE swichting and therefore have no impact on IDT based systems. It has been extensively tested on existing systems and on the FRED simulation and as of now there are no outstanding problems" * tag 'x86-fred-2024-03-10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (38 commits) x86/fred: Fix init_task thread stack pointer initialization MAINTAINERS: Add a maintainer entry for FRED x86/fred: Fix a build warning with allmodconfig due to 'inline' failing to inline properly x86/fred: Invoke FRED initialization code to enable FRED x86/fred: Add FRED initialization functions x86/syscall: Split IDT syscall setup code into idt_syscall_init() KVM: VMX: Call fred_entry_from_kvm() for IRQ/NMI handling x86/entry: Add fred_entry_from_kvm() for VMX to handle IRQ/NMI x86/entry/calling: Allow PUSH_AND_CLEAR_REGS being used beyond actual entry code x86/fred: Fixup fault on ERETU by jumping to fred_entrypoint_user x86/fred: Let ret_from_fork_asm() jmp to asm_fred_exit_user when FRED is enabled x86/traps: Add sysvec_install() to install a system interrupt handler x86/fred: FRED entry/exit and dispatch code x86/fred: Add a machine check entry stub for FRED x86/fred: Add a NMI entry stub for FRED x86/fred: Add a debug fault entry stub for FRED x86/idtentry: Incorporate definitions/declarations of the FRED entries x86/fred: Make exc_page_fault() work for FRED x86/fred: Allow single-step trap and NMI when starting a new task x86/fred: No ESPFIX needed when FRED is enabled ...

x86, crash: wrap crash dumping code into crash related ifdefs

x86/kvm: Use separate percpu variable to track the enabling of asyncpf

2024-02-06T18:58:56Z

Refer to commit fd10cde9294f ("KVM paravirt: Add async PF initialization to PV guest") and commit 344d9588a9df ("KVM: Add PV MSR to enable asynchronous page faults delivery"). It turns out that at the time when asyncpf was introduced, the purpose was defining the shared PV data 'struct kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data' with the size of 64 bytes. However, it made a mistake and defined the size to 68 bytes, which failed to make fit in a cache line and made the code inconsistent with the documentation. Below justification quoted from Sean[*] KVM (the host side) has *never* read kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data.enabled, and the documentation clearly states that enabling is based solely on the bit in the synthetic MSR. So rather than update the documentation, fix the goof by removing the enabled filed and use the separate percpu variable instread. KVM-as-a-host obviously doesn't enforce anything or consume the size, and changing the header will only affect guests that are rebuilt against the new header, so there's no chance of ABI breakage between KVM and its guests. The only possible breakage is if some other hypervisor is emulating KVM's async #PF (LOL) and relies on the guest to set kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data.enabled. But (a) I highly doubt such a hypervisor exists, (b) that would arguably be a violation of KVM's "spec", and (c) the worst case scenario is that the guest would simply lose async #PF functionality.
