[ Upstream commit 9625895011d130033d1bc7aac0d77a9bf68ff8a6 ]

The gap handling in copy_xstate_to_kernel() is wrong when XSAVES is in
use.

Using init_fpstate for copying the init state of features which are
not set in the xstate header is only correct for the legacy area, but
not for the extended features area because when XSAVES is in use then
init_fpstate is in compacted form which means the xstate offsets which
are used to copy from init_fpstate are not valid.

Fortunately, this is not a real problem today because all extended
features in use have an all-zeros init state, but it is wrong
nevertheless and with a potentially dynamically sized init_fpstate this
would result in an access outside of the init_fpstate.

Fix this by keeping track of the last copied state in the target buffer and
explicitly zero it when there is a feature or alignment gap.

Use the compacted offset when accessing the extended feature space in
init_fpstate.

As this is not a functional issue on older kernels this is intentionally
not tagged for stable.

[ Upstream commit 2beb4a53fc3f1081cedc1c1a198c7f56cc4fc60c ]

The kernel pushes context on to the userspace stack to prepare for the
user's signal handler. When the user has supplied an alternate signal
stack, via sigaltstack(2), it is easy for the kernel to verify that the
stack size is sufficient for the current hardware context.

Check if writing the hardware context to the alternate stack will exceed
it's size. If yes, then instead of corrupting user-data and proceeding with
the original signal handler, an immediate SIGSEGV signal is delivered.

Refactor the stack pointer check code from on_sig_stack() and use the new
helper.

While the kernel allows new source code to discover and use a sufficient
alternate signal stack size, this check is still necessary to protect
binaries with insufficient alternate signal stack size from data
corruption.

[ Upstream commit 450605c28d571eddca39a65fdbc1338add44c6d9 ]

Microsoft Hypervisor expects the logical processor index to be the same
as CPU's index during logical processor creation. Using cpu_physical_id
confuses hypervisor's scheduler. That causes the root partition not boot
when core scheduler is used.

This patch removes the call to cpu_physical_id and uses the CPU index
directly for bringing up logical processor. This scheme works for both
classic scheduler and core scheduler.

The #VC handler only cares about IRQs being disabled while the GHCB is
active, as it must not be interrupted by something which could cause
another #VC while it holds the GHCB (NMI is the exception for which the
backup GHCB exits).

Make sure nothing interrupts the code path while the GHCB is active
by making sure that callers of __sev_{get,put}_ghcb() have disabled
interrupts upfront.

<title>clocksource: Check per-CPU clock synchronization when marked unstable</title>

[ Upstream commit 7560c02bdffb7c52d1457fa551b9e745d4b9e754 ]

Some sorts of per-CPU clock sources have a history of going out of
synchronization with each other.  However, this problem has purportedy been
solved in the past ten years.  Except that it is all too possible that the
problem has instead simply been made less likely, which might mean that
some of the occasional "Marking clocksource 'tsc' as unstable" messages
might be due to desynchronization.  How would anyone know?

Therefore apply CPU-to-CPU synchronization checking to newly unstable
clocksource that are marked with the new CLOCK_SOURCE_VERIFY_PERCPU flag.
Lists of desynchronized CPUs are printed, with the caveat that if it
is the reporting CPU that is itself desynchronized, it will appear that
all the other clocks are wrong.  Just like in real life.

<title>sched/core: Initialize the idle task with preemption disabled</title>

[ Upstream commit f1a0a376ca0c4ef1fc3d24e3e502acbb5b795674 ]

As pointed out by commit

  de9b8f5dcbd9 ("sched: Fix crash trying to dequeue/enqueue the idle thread")

init_idle() can and will be invoked more than once on the same idle
task. At boot time, it is invoked for the boot CPU thread by
sched_init(). Then smp_init() creates the threads for all the secondary
CPUs and invokes init_idle() on them.

As the hotplug machinery brings the secondaries to life, it will issue
calls to idle_thread_get(), which itself invokes init_idle() yet again.
In this case it's invoked twice more per secondary: at _cpu_up(), and at
bringup_cpu().

Given smp_init() already initializes the idle tasks for all *possible*
CPUs, no further initialization should be required. Now, removing
init_idle() from idle_thread_get() exposes some interesting expectations
with regards to the idle task's preempt_count: the secondary startup always
issues a preempt_disable(), requiring some reset of the preempt count to 0
between hot-unplug and hotplug, which is currently served by
idle_thread_get() -&gt; idle_init().

Given the idle task is supposed to have preemption disabled once and never
see it re-enabled, it seems that what we actually want is to initialize its
preempt_count to PREEMPT_DISABLED and leave it there. Do that, and remove
init_idle() from idle_thread_get().

Secondary startups were patched via coccinelle:

  @begone@
  @@

  -preempt_disable();
  ...
  cpu_startup_entry(CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE);

<title>x86/fpu: Make init_fpstate correct with optimized XSAVE</title>

<id>urn:sha1:3e40e787d89b360cf7ff7810cf699bf88896f057</id>
<content type='text'>
commit f9dfb5e390fab2df9f7944bb91e7705aba14cd26 upstream.

The XSAVE init code initializes all enabled and supported components with
XRSTOR(S) to init state. Then it XSAVEs the state of the components back
into init_fpstate which is used in several places to fill in the init state
of components.

This works correctly with XSAVE, but not with XSAVEOPT and XSAVES because
those use the init optimization and skip writing state of components which
are in init state. So init_fpstate.xsave still contains all zeroes after
this operation.

There are two ways to solve that:

   1) Use XSAVE unconditionally, but that requires to reshuffle the buffer when
      XSAVES is enabled because XSAVES uses compacted format.

   2) Save the components which are known to have a non-zero init state by other
      means.

Looking deeper, #2 is the right thing to do because all components the
kernel supports have all-zeroes init state except the legacy features (FP,
SSE). Those cannot be hard coded because the states are not identical on all
CPUs, but they can be saved with FXSAVE which avoids all conditionals.

Use FXSAVE to save the legacy FP/SSE components in init_fpstate along with
a BUILD_BUG_ON() which reminds developers to validate that a newly added
component has all zeroes init state. As a bonus remove the now unused
copy_xregs_to_kernel_booting() crutch.

The XSAVE and reshuffle method can still be implemented in the unlikely
case that components are added which have a non-zero init state and no
other means to save them. For now, FXSAVE is just simple and good enough.
