[ Upstream commit d71a989cf5d961989c273093cdff2550acdde314 ]

In order to improve performance of typical scenarios we can try to insert
the entire vma on fault.  This accelerates typical cases, such as when
the MMIO region is DMA mapped by QEMU.  The vfio_iommu_type1 driver will
fault in the entire DMA mapped range through fixup_user_fault().

In synthetic testing, this improves the time required to walk a PCI BAR
mapping from userspace by roughly 1/3rd.

This is likely an interim solution until vmf_insert_pfn_{pmd,pud}() gain
support for pfnmaps.

<title>vfio/pci: Use unmap_mapping_range()</title>

[ Upstream commit aac6db75a9fc2c7a6f73e152df8f15101dda38e6 ]

With the vfio device fd tied to the address space of the pseudo fs
inode, we can use the mm to track all vmas that might be mmap'ing
device BARs, which removes our vma_list and all the complicated lock
ordering necessary to manually zap each related vma.

Note that we can no longer store the pfn in vm_pgoff if we want to use
unmap_mapping_range() to zap a selective portion of the device fd
corresponding to BAR mappings.

This also converts our mmap fault handler to use vmf_insert_pfn()
because we no longer have a vma_list to avoid the concurrency problem
with io_remap_pfn_range().  The goal is to eventually use the vm_ops
huge_fault handler to avoid the additional faulting overhead, but
vmf_insert_pfn_{pmd,pud}() need to learn about pfnmaps first.

Also, Jason notes that a race exists between unmap_mapping_range() and
the fops mmap callback if we were to call io_remap_pfn_range() to
populate the vma on mmap.  Specifically, mmap_region() does call_mmap()
before it does vma_link_file() which gives a window where the vma is
populated but invisible to unmap_mapping_range().

in the device counting and crashes the userspace if the get hot reset info

[ Upstream commit f6944d4a0b87c16bc34ae589169e1ded3d4db08e ]

Lockdep reports the below circular locking dependency issue.  The
mmap_lock acquisition while holding pci_bus_sem is due to the use of
copy_to_user() from within a pci_walk_bus() callback.

Building the devices array directly into the user buffer is only for
convenience.  Instead we can allocate a local buffer for the array,
bounded by the number of devices on the bus/slot, fill the device
information into this local buffer, then copy it into the user buffer
outside the bus walk callback.

commit 95feb3160eef0caa6018e175a5560b816aee8e79 upstream.

Due to an erratum with the SPR_DSA and SPR_IAX devices, it is not secure to assign
these devices to virtual machines. Add the PCI IDs of these devices to the VFIO
denylist to ensure that this is handled appropriately by the VFIO subsystem.

The SPR_DSA and SPR_IAX devices are on-SOC devices for the Sapphire Rapids
(and related) family of products that perform data movement and compression.

<id>urn:sha1:18c198c96a815c962adc2b9b77909eec0be7df4d</id>
<content type='text'>
A vulnerability exists where the eventfd for INTx signaling can be
deconfigured, which unregisters the IRQ handler but still allows
eventfds to be signaled with a NULL context through the SET_IRQS ioctl
or through unmask irqfd if the device interrupt is pending.

Ideally this could be solved with some additional locking; the igate
mutex serializes the ioctl and config space accesses, and the interrupt
handler is unregistered relative to the trigger, but the irqfd path
runs asynchronous to those.  The igate mutex cannot be acquired from the
atomic context of the eventfd wake function.  Disabling the irqfd
relative to the eventfd registration is potentially incompatible with
existing userspace.

As a result, the solution implemented here moves configuration of the
INTx interrupt handler to track the lifetime of the INTx context object
and irq_type configuration, rather than registration of a particular
trigger eventfd.  Synchronization is added between the ioctl path and
eventfd_signal() wrapper such that the eventfd trigger can be
dynamically updated relative to in-flight interrupts or irqfd callbacks.

Mask operations through config space changes to DisINTx may race INTx
configuration changes via ioctl.  Create wrappers that add locking for
paths outside of the core interrupt code.

In particular, irq_type is updated holding igate, therefore testing
is_intx() requires holding igate.  For example clearing DisINTx from
config space can otherwise race changes of the interrupt configuration.

This aligns interfaces which may trigger the INTx eventfd into two
camps, one side serialized by igate and the other only enabled while
INTx is configured.  A subsequent patch introduces synchronization for
the latter flows.

<title>vfio/pci: Disable auto-enable of exclusive INTx IRQ</title>

Currently for devices requiring masking at the irqchip for INTx, ie.
devices without DisINTx support, the IRQ is enabled in request_irq()
and subsequently disabled as necessary to align with the masked status
flag.  This presents a window where the interrupt could fire between
these events, resulting in the IRQ incrementing the disable depth twice.
This would be unrecoverable for a user since the masked flag prevents
nested enables through vfio.

Instead, invert the logic using IRQF_NO_AUTOEN such that exclusive INTx
is never auto-enabled, then unmask as required.

<title>vfio/pds: Refactor/simplify reset logic</title>

The current logic for handling resets is more complicated than it needs
to be. The deferred_reset flag is used to indicate a reset is needed
and the deferred_reset_state is the requested, post-reset, state.

Also, the deferred_reset logic was added to vfio migration drivers to
prevent a circular locking dependency with respect to mm_lock and state
mutex. This is mainly because of the copy_to/from_user() functions(which
takes mm_lock) invoked under state mutex.

Remove all of the deferred reset logic and just pass the requested
next state to pds_vfio_reset() so it can be used for VMM and DSC
initiated resets.

This removes the need for pds_vfio_state_mutex_lock(), so remove that
and replace its use with a simple mutex_unlock().

Also, remove the reset_mutex as it's no longer needed since the
state_mutex can be the driver's primary protector.
