Pull EDAC updates from Borislav Petkov:
- Add a FRU (Field Replaceable Unit) memory poison manager which
collects and manages previously encountered hw errors in order to
save them to persistent storage across reboots. Previously recorded
errors are "replayed" upon reboot in order to poison memory which has
caused said errors in the past.
The main use case is stacked, on-chip memory which cannot simply be
replaced so poisoning faulty areas of it and thus making them
inaccessible is the only strategy to prolong its lifetime.
- Add an AMD address translation library glue which converts the
reported addresses of hw errors into system physical addresses in
order to be used by other subsystems like memory failure, for
example. Add support for MI300 accelerators to that library.

Pull x86 entry update from Thomas Gleixner:
"A single update for the x86 entry code:
The current CR3 handling for kernel page table isolation in the
paranoid return paths which are relevant for #NMI, #MCE, #VC, #DB and
#DF is unconditionally writing CR3 with the value retrieved on
exception entry.
In the vast majority of cases when returning to the kernel this is a
pointless exercise because CR3 was not modified on exception entry.
The only situation where this is necessary is when the exception
interrupts a entry from user before switching to kernel CR3 or
interrupts an exit to user after switching back to user CR3.
As CR3 writes can be expensive on some systems this becomes measurable
overhead with high frequency #NMIs such as perf.
Avoid this overhead by checking the CR3 value, which was saved on
entry, and write it back to CR3 only when it is a user CR3"

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"

Pull x86 APIC updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Rework of APIC enumeration and topology evaluation.
The current implementation has a couple of shortcomings:
- It fails to handle hybrid systems correctly.
- The APIC registration code which handles CPU number assignents is
in the middle of the APIC code and detached from the topology
evaluation.
- The various mechanisms which enumerate APICs, ACPI, MPPARSE and
guest specific ones, tweak global variables as they see fit or in
case of XENPV just hack around the generic mechanisms completely.
- The CPUID topology evaluation code is sprinkled all over the vendor
code and reevaluates global variables on every hotplug operation.
- There is no way to analyze topology on the boot CPU before bringing
up the APs. This causes problems for infrastructure like PERF which
needs to size certain aspects upfront or could be simplified if
that would be possible.
- The APIC admission and CPU number association logic is
incomprehensible and overly complex and needs to be kept around
after boot instead of completing this right after the APIC
enumeration.
This update addresses these shortcomings with the following changes:
- Rework the CPUID evaluation code so it is common for all vendors
and provides information about the APIC ID segments in a uniform
way independent of the number of segments (Thread, Core, Module,
..., Die, Package) so that this information can be computed instead
of rewriting global variables of dubious value over and over.
- A few cleanups and simplifcations of the APIC, IO/APIC and related
interfaces to prepare for the topology evaluation changes.
- Seperation of the parser stages so the early evaluation which tries
to find the APIC address can be seperately overridden from the late
evaluation which enumerates and registers the local APIC as further
preparation for sanitizing the topology evaluation.
- A new registration and admission logic which
- encapsulates the inner workings so that parsers and guest logic
cannot longer fiddle in it
- uses the APIC ID segments to build topology bitmaps at
registration time
- provides a sane admission logic
- allows to detect the crash kernel case, where CPU0 does not run
on the real BSP, automatically. This is required to prevent
sending INIT/SIPI sequences to the real BSP which would reset
the whole machine. This was so far handled by a tedious command
line parameter, which does not even work in nested crash
scenarios.
- Associates CPU number after the enumeration completed and
prevents the late registration of APICs, which was somehow
tolerated before.
- Converting all parsers and guest enumeration mechanisms over to the
new interfaces.
This allows to get rid of all global variable tweaking from the
parsers and enumeration mechanisms and sanitizes the XEN[PV]
handling so it can use CPUID evaluation for the first time.
- Mopping up existing sins by taking the information from the APIC ID
segment bitmaps.
This evaluates hybrid systems correctly on the boot CPU and allows
for cleanups and fixes in the related drivers, e.g. PERF.
The series has been extensively tested and the minimal late fallout
due to a broken ACPI/MADT table has been addressed by tightening the
admission logic further"

LLVM generates bpf_addr_space_cast instruction while translating
pointers between native (zero) address space and
__attribute__((address_space(N))).
The addr_space=1 is reserved as bpf_arena address space.
rY = addr_space_cast(rX, 0, 1) is processed by the verifier and
converted to normal 32-bit move: wX = wY
rY = addr_space_cast(rX, 1, 0) has to be converted by JIT:
aux_reg = upper_32_bits of arena->user_vm_start
aux_reg <<= 32
wX = wY // clear upper 32 bits of dst register
if (wX) // if not zero add upper bits of user_vm_start
wX |= aux_reg
JIT can do it more efficiently:
mov dst_reg32, src_reg32 // 32-bit move
shl dst_reg, 32
or dst_reg, user_vm_start
rol dst_reg, 32
xor r11, r11
test dst_reg32, dst_reg32 // check if lower 32-bit are zero
cmove r11, dst_reg // if so, set dst_reg to zero
// Intel swapped src/dst register encoding in CMOVcc

Add support for [LDX | STX | ST], PROBE_MEM32, [B | H | W | DW] instructions.
They are similar to PROBE_MEM instructions with the following differences:
- PROBE_MEM has to check that the address is in the kernel range with
src_reg + insn->off >= TASK_SIZE_MAX + PAGE_SIZE check
- PROBE_MEM doesn't support store
- PROBE_MEM32 relies on the verifier to clear upper 32-bit in the register
- PROBE_MEM32 adds 64-bit kern_vm_start address (which is stored in %r12 in the prologue)
Due to bpf_arena constructions such %r12 + %reg + off16 access is guaranteed
to be within arena virtual range, so no address check at run-time.
- PROBE_MEM32 allows STX and ST. If they fault the store is a nop.
When LDX faults the destination register is zeroed.

Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A large set of updates and features for timers and timekeeping:
- The hierarchical timer pull model
When timer wheel timers are armed they are placed into the timer
wheel of a CPU which is likely to be busy at the time of expiry.
This is done to avoid wakeups on potentially idle CPUs.
This is wrong in several aspects:
1) The heuristics to select the target CPU are wrong by
definition as the chance to get the prediction right is
close to zero.
2) Due to #1 it is possible that timers are accumulated on
a single target CPU
3) The required computation in the enqueue path is just overhead
for dubious value especially under the consideration that the
vast majority of timer wheel timers are either canceled or
rearmed before they expire.
The timer pull model avoids the above by removing the target
computation on enqueue and queueing timers always on the CPU on
which they get armed.
This is achieved by having separate wheels for CPU pinned timers
and global timers which do not care about where they expire.
As long as a CPU is busy it handles both the pinned and the global
timers which are queued on the CPU local timer wheels.
When a CPU goes idle it evaluates its own timer wheels:
- If the first expiring timer is a pinned timer, then the global
timers can be ignored as the CPU will wake up before they
expire.
- If the first expiring timer is a global timer, then the expiry
time is propagated into the timer pull hierarchy and the CPU
makes sure to wake up for the first pinned timer.
The timer pull hierarchy organizes CPUs in groups of eight at the
lowest level and at the next levels groups of eight groups up to
the point where no further aggregation of groups is required, i.e.
the number of levels is log8(NR_CPUS). The magic number of eight
has been established by experimention, but can be adjusted if
needed.
In each group one busy CPU acts as the migrator. It's only one CPU
to avoid lock contention on remote timer wheels.
The migrator CPU checks in its own timer wheel handling whether
there are other CPUs in the group which have gone idle and have
global timers to expire. If there are global timers to expire, the
migrator locks the remote CPU timer wheel and handles the expiry.
Depending on the group level in the hierarchy this handling can
require to walk the hierarchy downwards to the CPU level.
Special care is taken when the last CPU goes idle. At this point
the CPU is the systemwide migrator at the top of the hierarchy and
it therefore cannot delegate to the hierarchy. It needs to arm its
own timer device to expire either at the first expiring timer in
the hierarchy or at the first CPU local timer, which ever expires
first.
This completely removes the overhead from the enqueue path, which
is e.g. for networking a true hotpath and trades it for a slightly
more complex idle path.
This has been in development for a couple of years and the final
series has been extensively tested by various teams from silicon
vendors and ran through extensive CI.
There have been slight performance improvements observed on network
centric workloads and an Intel team confirmed that this allows them
to power down a die completely on a mult-die socket for the first
time in a mostly idle scenario.
There is only one outstanding ~1.5% regression on a specific
overloaded netperf test which is currently investigated, but the
rest is either positive or neutral performance wise and positive on
the power management side.
- Fixes for the timekeeping interpolation code for cross-timestamps:
cross-timestamps are used for PTP to get snapshots from hardware
timers and interpolated them back to clock MONOTONIC. The changes
address a few corner cases in the interpolation code which got the
math and logic wrong.
- Simplifcation of the clocksource watchdog retry logic to
automatically adjust to handle larger systems correctly instead of
having more incomprehensible command line parameters.
- Treewide consolidation of the VDSO data structures.
- The usual small improvements and cleanups all over the place"

Pull clocksource updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Updates for timekeeping and PTP core.
The cross-timestamp mechanism which allows to correlate hardware
clocks uses clocksource pointers for describing the correlation.
That's suboptimal as drivers need to obtain the pointer, which
requires needless exports and exposing internals. This can all be
completely avoided by assigning clocksource IDs and using them for
describing the correlated clock source.
So this adds clocksource IDs to all clocksources in the tree which can
be exposed to this mechanism and removes the pointer and now needless
exports.
A related improvement for the core and the correlation handling has
not made it this time, but is expected to get ready for the next
round"

Pull MSI updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Updates for the MSI interrupt subsystem and initial RISC-V MSI
support.
The core changes have been adopted from previous work which converted
ARM[64] to the new per device MSI domain model, which was merged to
support multiple MSI domain per device. The ARM[64] changes are being
worked on too, but have not been ready yet. The core and platform-MSI
changes have been split out to not hold up RISC-V and to avoid that
RISC-V builds on the scheduled for removal interfaces.
The core support provides new interfaces to handle wire to MSI bridges
in a straight forward way and introduces new platform-MSI interfaces
which are built on top of the per device MSI domain model.
Once ARM[64] is converted over the old platform-MSI interfaces and the
related ugliness in the MSI core code will be removed.
The actual MSI parts for RISC-V were finalized late and have been
post-poned for the next merge window.
Drivers:
- Add a new driver for the Andes hart-level interrupt controller
- Rework the SiFive PLIC driver to prepare for MSI suport
- Expand the RISC-V INTC driver to support the new RISC-V AIA
controller which provides the basis for MSI on RISC-V

Mitigation for RFDS requires RFDS_CLEAR capability which is enumerated
by MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES bit 27. If the host has it set, export it
to guests so that they can deploy the mitigation.
RFDS_NO indicates that the system is not vulnerable to RFDS, export it
to guests so that they don't deploy the mitigation unnecessarily. When
the host is not affected by X86_BUG_RFDS, but has RFDS_NO=0, synthesize
RFDS_NO to the guest.

RFDS is a CPU vulnerability that may allow userspace to infer kernel
stale data previously used in floating point registers, vector registers
and integer registers. RFDS only affects certain Intel Atom processors.
Intel released a microcode update that uses VERW instruction to clear
the affected CPU buffers. Unlike MDS, none of the affected cores support
SMT.
Add RFDS bug infrastructure and enable the VERW based mitigation by
default, that clears the affected buffers just before exiting to
userspace. Also add sysfs reporting and cmdline parameter
"reg_file_data_sampling" to control the mitigation.

Currently MMIO Stale Data mitigation for CPUs not affected by MDS/TAA is
to only deploy VERW at VMentry by enabling mmio_stale_data_clear static
branch. No mitigation is needed for kernel->user transitions. If such
CPUs are also affected by RFDS, its mitigation may set
X86_FEATURE_CLEAR_CPU_BUF to deploy VERW at kernel->user and VMentry.
This could result in duplicate VERW at VMentry.
Fix this by disabling mmio_stale_data_clear static branch when
X86_FEATURE_CLEAR_CPU_BUF is enabled.

KVM Xen and pfncache changes for 6.9:
- Rip out the half-baked support for using gfn_to_pfn caches to manage pages
that are "mapped" into guests via physical addresses.
- Add support for using gfn_to_pfn caches with only a host virtual address,
i.e. to bypass the "gfn" stage of the cache. The primary use case is
overlay pages, where the guest may change the gfn used to reference the
overlay page, but the backing hva+pfn remains the same.
- Add an ioctl() to allow mapping Xen's shared_info page using an hva instead
of a gpa, so that userspace doesn't need to reconfigure and invalidate the
cache/mapping if the guest changes the gpa (but userspace keeps the resolved
hva the same).
- When possible, use a single host TSC value when computing the deadline for
Xen timers in order to improve the accuracy of the timer emulation.
- Inject pending upcall events when the vCPU software-enables its APIC to fix
a bug where an upcall can be lost (and to follow Xen's behavior).
- Fall back to the slow path instead of warning if "fast" IRQ delivery of Xen
events fails, e.g. if the guest has aliased xAPIC IDs.
- Extend gfn_to_pfn_cache's mutex to cover (de)activation (in addition to
refresh), and drop a now-redundant acquisition of xen_lock (that was
protecting the shared_info cache) to fix a deadlock due to recursively
acquiring xen_lock.

KVM x86 PMU changes for 6.9:
- Fix several bugs where KVM speciously prevents the guest from utilizing
fixed counters and architectural event encodings based on whether or not
guest CPUID reports support for the _architectural_ encoding.
- Fix a variety of bugs in KVM's emulation of RDPMC, e.g. for "fast" reads,
priority of VMX interception vs #GP, PMC types in architectural PMUs, etc.
- Add a selftest to verify KVM correctly emulates RDMPC, counter availability,
and a variety of other PMC-related behaviors that depend on guest CPUID,
i.e. are difficult to validate via KVM-Unit-Tests.
- Zero out PMU metadata on AMD if the virtual PMU is disabled to avoid wasting
cycles, e.g. when checking if a PMC event needs to be synthesized when
skipping an instruction.
- Optimize triggering of emulated events, e.g. for "count instructions" events
when skipping an instruction, which yields a ~10% performance improvement in
VM-Exit microbenchmarks when a vPMU is exposed to the guest.
- Tighten the check for "PMI in guest" to reduce false positives if an NMI
arrives in the host while KVM is handling an IRQ VM-Exit.
|
|
KVM VMX changes for 6.9:
- Fix a bug where KVM would report stale/bogus exit qualification information
when exiting to userspace due to an unexpected VM-Exit while the CPU was
vectoring an exception.
- Add a VMX flag in /proc/cpuinfo to report 5-level EPT support.
- Clean up the logic for massaging the passthrough MSR bitmaps when userspace
changes its MSR filter.
|
|
KVM x86 MMU changes for 6.9:
- Clean up code related to unprotecting shadow pages when retrying a guest
instruction after failed #PF-induced emulation.
- Zap TDP MMU roots at 4KiB granularity to minimize the delay in yielding if
a reschedule is needed, e.g. if a high priority task needs to run. Because
KVM doesn't support yielding in the middle of processing a zapped non-leaf
SPTE, zapping at 1GiB granularity can result in multi-millisecond lag when
attempting to schedule in a high priority.
- Rework TDP MMU root unload, free, and alloc to run with mmu_lock held for
read, e.g. to avoid serializing vCPUs when userspace deletes a memslot.
- Allocate write-tracking metadata on-demand to avoid the memory overhead when
running kernels built with KVMGT support (external write-tracking enabled),
but for workloads that don't use nested virtualization (shadow paging) or
KVMGT.

KVM x86 misc changes for 6.9:
- Explicitly initialize a variety of on-stack variables in the emulator that
triggered KMSAN false positives (though in fairness in KMSAN, it's comically
difficult to see that the uninitialized memory is never truly consumed).
- Fix the deubgregs ABI for 32-bit KVM, and clean up code related to reading
DR6 and DR7.
- Rework the "force immediate exit" code so that vendor code ultimately
decides how and when to force the exit. This allows VMX to further optimize
handling preemption timer exits, and allows SVM to avoid sending a duplicate
IPI (SVM also has a need to force an exit).
- Fix a long-standing bug where kvm_has_noapic_vcpu could be left elevated if
vCPU creation ultimately failed, and add WARN to guard against similar bugs.
- Provide a dedicated arch hook for checking if a different vCPU was in-kernel
(for directed yield), and simplify the logic for checking if the currently
loaded vCPU is in-kernel.
- Misc cleanups and fixes.

The kernel CONFIG_UNWINDER_ORC option enables the ORC unwinder, which is
similar in concept to a DWARF unwinder. The difference is that the format
of the ORC data is much simpler than DWARF, which in turn allows the ORC
unwinder to be much simpler and faster.
The ORC data consists of unwind tables which are generated by objtool.
After analyzing all the code paths of a .o file, it determines information
about the stack state at each instruction address in the file and outputs
that information to the .orc_unwind and .orc_unwind_ip sections.
The per-object ORC sections are combined at link time and are sorted and
post-processed at boot time. The unwinder uses the resulting data to
correlate instruction addresses with their stack states at run time.
Most of the logic are similar with x86, in order to get ra info before ra
is saved into stack, add ra_reg and ra_offset into orc_entry. At the same
time, modify some arch-specific code to silence the objtool warnings.

KVM/arm64 updates for 6.9
- Infrastructure for building KVM's trap configuration based on the
architectural features (or lack thereof) advertised in the VM's ID
registers
- Support for mapping vfio-pci BARs as Normal-NC (vaguely similar to
x86's WC) at stage-2, improving the performance of interacting with
assigned devices that can tolerate it
- Conversion of KVM's representation of LPIs to an xarray, utilized to
address serialization some of the serialization on the LPI injection
path
- Support for _architectural_ VHE-only systems, advertised through the
absence of FEAT_E2H0 in the CPU's ID register
- Miscellaneous cleanups, fixes, and spelling corrections to KVM and
selftests

Based on the design pattern utilized in the CM GCR base address getter
implementation, the platform-specific code is capable to re-define the
getter and re-use the weakly defined initial version. But since the
pattern hasn't been used for over 10 years and another similar case (CM
L2-sync only base address getter) has just been fixed, let's unify the
interface and convert it to a more traditional single weakly defined
method: mips_cm_phys_base() (see the link below for the discussion around
this).

The __mips_cm_l2sync_phys_base() and mips_cm_l2sync_phys_base() couple was
introduced in commit 9f98f3dd0c51 ("MIPS: Add generic CM probe & access
code") where the former method was a weak implementation of the later
function. Such design pattern permitted to re-define the original method
and to use the weak implementation in the new function. A similar approach
was introduced in the framework of another arch-specific programmable
interface: mips_cm_phys_base() and __mips_cm_phys_base(). The only
difference is that the underscored method of the later couple was declared
in the "asm/mips-cm.h" header file, but it wasn't done for the CM L2-sync
methods in the subject. Due to the missing global function declaration
the "missing prototype" warning was spotted in the framework of the commit
9a2036724cd6 ("mips: mark local function static if possible") and fixed
just be re-qualifying the weak method as static. Doing that broke what was
originally implied by having the weak implementation globally defined.
Let's fix the broken CM2 L2-sync arch-interface by dropping the static
qualifier and, seeing the implemented pattern hasn't been used for over 10
years but will be required soon (see the link for the discussion around
it), converting it to a single weakly defined method:
mips_cm_l2sync_phys_base().

Add default #address-cells and #size-cells properties to the
usb node, which should be suitable for hubs and devices without
explicitly declared interface nodes, as:
"#address-cells":
description: should be 1 for hub nodes with device nodes,
should be 2 for device nodes with interface nodes.
enum: [1, 2]
"#size-cells":
const: 0

RISC-V Devicetree fixes for v6.8-final
Starfive:
The previous cleanup broke boot on the jh7100 as the driver depended on
the fallback clock name created based on the node-name when
clock-output-names is not present. Add clock-output-names to restore
working order.
Generic:
BUILTIN_DTB has been broken for ages on any platform other than the
nommu Canaan k210 SoC as the first dtb built (in alphanumerical order),
would get built into the image. This didn't get fixed for ages because
nobody actually cared about running it other than the k210 enough to
fix it. The folks doing Sophgo SG2042 development have come along and
fixed it, as they want to use builtin dtbs. linux-boot on that platform
reuses the dtb it was provided by OpenSBI when booting linux proper,
which is unfortunately not possible to boot a mainline kernel with.
