6a288a4ddb mm/page_alloc: fix initialization of tags of the huge zero folio with init_on_free
__GFP_ZEROTAGS semantics are currently a bit weird, but effectively this
flag is only ever set alongside __GFP_ZERO and __GFP_SKIP_KASAN.

If we run with init_on_free, we will zero out pages during
__free_pages_prepare(), to skip zeroing on the allocation path.

However, when allocating with __GFP_ZEROTAG set, post_alloc_hook() will
consequently not only skip clearing page content, but also skip clearing
tag memory.

Not clearing tags through __GFP_ZEROTAGS is irrelevant for most pages that
will get mapped to user space through set_pte_at() later: set_pte_at() and
friends will detect that the tags have not been initialized yet
(PG_mte_tagged not set), and initialize them.

However, for the huge zero folio, which will be mapped through a PMD
marked as special, this initialization will not be performed, ending up
exposing whatever tags were still set for the pages.

The docs (Documentation/arch/arm64/memory-tagging-extension.rst) state
that allocation tags are set to 0 when a page is first mapped to user
space.  That no longer holds with the huge zero folio when init_on_free is
enabled.

Fix it by decoupling __GFP_ZEROTAGS from __GFP_ZERO, passing to
tag_clear_highpages() whether we want to also clear page content.

Invert the meaning of the tag_clear_highpages() return value to have
clearer semantics.

Reproduced with the huge zero folio by modifying the check_buffer_fill
arm64/mte selftest to use a 2 MiB area, after making sure that pages have
a non-0 tag set when freeing (note that, during boot, we will not actually
initialize tags, but only set KASAN_TAG_KERNEL in the page flags).

	$ ./check_buffer_fill
	1..20
	...
	not ok 17 Check initial tags with private mapping, sync error mode and mmap memory
	not ok 18 Check initial tags with private mapping, sync error mode and mmap/mprotect memory
	...

This code needs more cleanups; we'll tackle that next, like
decoupling __GFP_ZEROTAGS from __GFP_SKIP_KASAN.

01f492e181 Arm:
- Add support for tracing in the standalone EL2 hypervisor code, which
   should help both debugging and performance analysis.  This uses the
   new infrastructure for 'remote' trace buffers that can be exposed
   by non-kernel entities such as firmware, and which came through the
   tracing tree.
 
 - Add support for GICv5 Per Processor Interrupts (PPIs), as the starting
   point for supporting the new GIC architecture in KVM.
 
 - Finally add support for pKVM protected guests, where pages are unmapped
   from the host as they are faulted into the guest and can be shared back
   from the guest using pKVM hypercalls.  Protected guests are created
   using a new machine type identifier.  As the elusive guestmem has not
   yet delivered on its promises, anonymous memory is also supported.
 
   This is only a first step towards full isolation from the host; for
   example, the CPU register state and DMA accesses are not yet isolated.
   Because this does not really yet bring fully what it promises, it is
   hidden behind CONFIG_ARM_PKVM_GUEST + 'kvm-arm.mode=protected', and
   also triggers TAINT_USER when a VM is created.  Caveat emptor.
 
 - Rework the dreaded user_mem_abort() function to make it more
   maintainable, reducing the amount of state being exposed to the
   various helpers and rendering a substantial amount of state immutable.
 
 - Expand the Stage-2 page table dumper to support NV shadow page tables
   on a per-VM basis.
 
 - Tidy up the pKVM PSCI proxy code to be slightly less hard to follow.
 
 - Fix both SPE and TRBE in non-VHE configurations so that they do not
   generate spurious, out of context table walks that ultimately lead
   to very bad HW lockups.
 
 - A small set of patches fixing the Stage-2 MMU freeing in error cases.
 
 - Tighten-up accepted SMC immediate value to be only #0 for host
   SMCCC calls.
 
 - The usual cleanups and other selftest churn.
 
 LoongArch:
 
 - Use CSR_CRMD_PLV for kvm_arch_vcpu_in_kernel().
 
 - Add DMSINTC irqchip in kernel support.
 
 RISC-V:
 
 - Fix steal time shared memory alignment checks
 
 - Fix vector context allocation leak
 
 - Fix array out-of-bounds in pmu_ctr_read() and pmu_fw_ctr_read_hi()
 
 - Fix double-free of sdata in kvm_pmu_clear_snapshot_area()
 
 - Fix integer overflow in kvm_pmu_validate_counter_mask()
 
 - Fix shift-out-of-bounds in make_xfence_request()
 
 - Fix lost write protection on huge pages during dirty logging
 
 - Split huge pages during fault handling for dirty logging
 
 - Skip CSR restore if VCPU is reloaded on the same core
 
 - Implement kvm_arch_has_default_irqchip() for KVM selftests
 
 - Factored-out ISA checks into separate sources
 
 - Added hideleg to struct kvm_vcpu_config
 
 - Factored-out VCPU config into separate sources
 
 - Support configuration of per-VM HGATP mode from KVM user space
 
 s390:
 
 - Support for ESA (31-bit) guests inside nested hypervisors.
 
 - Remove restriction on memslot alignment, which is not needed anymore with
   the new gmap code.
 
 - Fix LPSW/E to update the bear (which of course is the breaking event
   address register).
 
 x86:
 
 - Shut up various UBSAN warnings on reading module parameter before they
   were initialized.
 
 - Don't zero-allocate page tables that are used for splitting hugepages in
   the TDP MMU, as KVM is guaranteed to set all SPTEs in the page table and
   thus write all bytes.
 
 - As an optimization, bail early when trying to unsync 4KiB mappings if the
   target gfn can just be mapped with a 2MiB hugepage.
 
 x86 generic:
 
 - Copy single-chunk MMIO write values into struct kvm_vcpu (more precisely
   struct kvm_mmio_fragment) to fix use-after-free stack bugs where KVM
   would dereference stack pointer after an exit to userspace.
 
 - Clean up and comment the emulated MMIO code to try to make it easier to
   maintain (not necessarily "easy", but "easier").
 
 - Move VMXON+VMXOFF and EFER.SVME toggling out of KVM (not *all* of VMX
   and SVM enabling) as it is needed for trusted I/O.
 
 - Advertise support for AVX512 Bit Matrix Multiply (BMM) instructions
 
 - Immediately fail the build if a required #define is missing in one of
   KVM's headers that is included multiple times.
 
 - Reject SET_GUEST_DEBUG with -EBUSY if there's an already injected
   exception, mostly to prevent syzkaller from abusing the uAPI to
   trigger WARNs, but also because it can help prevent userspace from
   unintentionally crashing the VM.
 
 - Exempt SMM from CPUID faulting on Intel, as per the spec.
 
 - Misc hardening and cleanup changes.
 
 x86 (AMD):
 
 - Fix and optimize IRQ window inhibit handling for AVIC; make it per-vCPU
   so that KVM doesn't prematurely re-enable AVIC if multiple
   vCPUs have to-be-injected IRQs.
 
 - Clean up and optimize the OSVW handling, avoiding a bug in which KVM would
   overwrite state when enabling virtualization on multiple CPUs in parallel.
   This should not be a problem because OSVW should usually be the same for
   all CPUs.
 
 - Drop a WARN in KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_REG_REGION where KVM complains about a
   "too large" size based purely on user input.
 
 - Clean up and harden the pinning code for KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_REG_REGION.
 
 - Disallow synchronizing a VMSA of an already-launched/encrypted vCPU, as
   doing so for an SNP guest will crash the host due to an RMP violation
   page fault.
 
 - Overhaul KVM's APIs for detecting SEV+ guests so that VM-scoped queries
   are required to hold kvm->lock, and enforce it by lockdep.  Fix various
   bugs where sev_guest() was not ensured to be stable for the whole
   duration of a function or ioctl.
 
 - Convert a pile of kvm->lock SEV code to guard().
 
 - Play nicer with userspace that does not enable KVM_CAP_EXCEPTION_PAYLOAD,
   for which KVM needs to set CR2 and DR6 as a response to ioctls such as
   KVM_GET_VCPU_EVENTS (even if the payload would end up in EXITINFO2
   rather than CR2, for example).  Only set CR2 and DR6 when consumption of
   the payload is imminent, but on the other hand force delivery of the
   payload in all paths where userspace retrieves CR2 or DR6.
 
 - Use vcpu->arch.cr2 when updating vmcb12's CR2 on nested #VMEXIT instead
   of vmcb02->save.cr2.  The value is out of sync after a save/restore
   or after a #PF is injected into L2.
 
 - Fix a class of nSVM bugs where some fields written by the CPU are not
   synchronized from vmcb02 to cached vmcb12 after VMRUN, and so are not
   up-to-date when saved by KVM_GET_NESTED_STATE.
 
 - Fix a class of bugs where the ordering between KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE and
   KVM_SET_{S}REGS could cause vmcb02 to be incorrectly initialized after
   save+restore.
 
 - Add a variety of missing nSVM consistency checks.
 
 - Fix several bugs where KVM failed to correctly update VMCB fields on
   nested #VMEXIT.
 
 - Fix several bugs where KVM failed to correctly synthesize #UD or #GP for
   SVM-related instructions.
 
 - Add support for save+restore of virtualized LBRs (on SVM).
 
 - Refactor various helpers and macros to improve clarity and (hopefully)
   make the code easier to maintain.
 
 - Aggressively sanitize fields when copying from vmcb12, to guard against
   unintentionally allowing L1 to utilize yet-to-be-defined features.
 
 - Fix several bugs where KVM botched rAX legality checks when emulating SVM
   instructions.  There are remaining issues in that KVM doesn't handle size
   prefix overrides for 64-bit guests.
 
 - Fail emulation of VMRUN/VMLOAD/VMSAVE if mapping vmcb12 fails instead of
   somewhat arbitrarily synthesizing #GP (i.e. don't double down on AMD's
   architectural but sketchy behavior of generating #GP for "unsupported"
   addresses).
 
 - Cache all used vmcb12 fields to further harden against TOCTOU bugs.
 
 x86 (Intel):
 
 - Drop obsolete branch hint prefixes from the VMX instruction macros.
 
 - Use ASM_INPUT_RM() in __vmcs_writel() to coerce clang into using a
   register input when appropriate.
 
 - Code cleanups.
 
 guest_memfd:
 
 - Don't mark guest_memfd folios as accessed, as guest_memfd doesn't support
   reclaim, the memory is unevictable, and there is no storage to write
   back to.
 
 LoongArch selftests:
 
 - Add KVM PMU test cases
 
 s390 selftests:
 
 - Enable more memory selftests.
 
 x86 selftests:
 
 - Add support for Hygon CPUs in KVM selftests.
 
 - Fix a bug in the MSR test where it would get false failures on AMD/Hygon
   CPUs with exactly one of RDPID or RDTSCP.
 
 - Add an MADV_COLLAPSE testcase for guest_memfd as a regression test for a
   bug where the kernel would attempt to collapse guest_memfd folios against
   KVM's will.

   - Add a variety of missing nSVM consistency checks

   - Fix several bugs where KVM failed to correctly update VMCB fields
     on nested #VMEXIT

   - Fix several bugs where KVM failed to correctly synthesize #UD or
     #GP for SVM-related instructions

   - Add support for save+restore of virtualized LBRs (on SVM)

   - Refactor various helpers and macros to improve clarity and
     (hopefully) make the code easier to maintain

   - Aggressively sanitize fields when copying from vmcb12, to guard
     against unintentionally allowing L1 to utilize yet-to-be-defined
     features

   - Fix several bugs where KVM botched rAX legality checks when
     emulating SVM instructions. There are remaining issues in that KVM
     doesn't handle size prefix overrides for 64-bit guests

   - Fail emulation of VMRUN/VMLOAD/VMSAVE if mapping vmcb12 fails
     instead of somewhat arbitrarily synthesizing #GP (i.e. don't double
     down on AMD's architectural but sketchy behavior of generating #GP
     for "unsupported" addresses)

   - Cache all used vmcb12 fields to further harden against TOCTOU bugs

  x86 (Intel):

   - Drop obsolete branch hint prefixes from the VMX instruction macros

   - Use ASM_INPUT_RM() in __vmcs_writel() to coerce clang into using a
     register input when appropriate

   - Code cleanups

  guest_memfd:

   - Don't mark guest_memfd folios as accessed, as guest_memfd doesn't
     support reclaim, the memory is unevictable, and there is no storage
     to write back to

  LoongArch selftests:

   - Add KVM PMU test cases

  s390 selftests:

   - Enable more memory selftests

  x86 selftests:

   - Add support for Hygon CPUs in KVM selftests

   - Fix a bug in the MSR test where it would get false failures on
     AMD/Hygon CPUs with exactly one of RDPID or RDTSCP

   - Add an MADV_COLLAPSE testcase for guest_memfd as a regression test
     for a bug where the kernel would attempt to collapse guest_memfd
     folios against KVM's will"

06c4dfa3ce mm: change to return bool for ptep_clear_flush_young()/clear_flush_young_ptes()
The ptep_clear_flush_young() and clear_flush_young_ptes() are used to
clear the young flag and flush the TLB, returning whether the young flag
was set.  Change the return type to bool to make the intention clearer.

a62ca3f40f mm: change to return bool for ptep_test_and_clear_young()
Patch series "change young flag check functions to return bool", v2.

This is a cleanup patchset to change all young flag check functions to
return bool, as discussed with David in the previous thread[1].  Since
callers only care about whether the young flag was set, returning bool
makes the intention clearer.  No functional changes intended.


This patch (of 6):

Callers use ptep_test_and_clear_young() to clear the young flag and check
whether it was set.  Change the return type to bool to make the intention
clearer.

26513781d1 mm: cache struct page for empty_zero_page and return it from ZERO_PAGE()
For most architectures every invocation of ZERO_PAGE() does
virt_to_page(empty_zero_page).  But empty_zero_page is in BSS and it is
enough to get its struct page once at initialization time and then use it
whenever a zero page should be accessed.

Add yet another __zero_page variable that will be initialized as
virt_to_page(empty_zero_page) for most architectures in a weak
arch_setup_zero_pages() function.

For architectures that use colored zero pages (MIPS and s390) rename their
setup_zero_pages() to arch_setup_zero_pages() and make it global rather
than static.

For architectures that cannot use virt_to_page() for BSS (arm64 and
sparc64) add override of arch_setup_zero_pages().

6215d9f447 arch, mm: consolidate empty_zero_page
Reduce 22 declarations of empty_zero_page to 3 and 23 declarations of
ZERO_PAGE() to 4.

Every architecture defines empty_zero_page that way or another, but for the
most of them it is always a page aligned page in BSS and most definitions
of ZERO_PAGE do virt_to_page(empty_zero_page).

Move Linus vetted x86 definition of empty_zero_page and ZERO_PAGE() to the
core MM and drop these definitions in architectures that do not implement
colored zero page (MIPS and s390).

ZERO_PAGE() remains a macro because turning it to a wrapper for a static
inline causes severe pain in header dependencies.

For the most part the change is mechanical, with these being noteworthy:

* alpha: aliased empty_zero_page with ZERO_PGE that was also used for boot
  parameters. Switching to a generic empty_zero_page removes the aliasing
  and keeps ZERO_PGE for boot parameters only
* arm64: uses __pa_symbol() in ZERO_PAGE() so that definition of
  ZERO_PAGE() is kept intact.
* m68k/parisc/um: allocated empty_zero_page from memblock,
  although they do not support zero page coloring and having it in BSS
  will work fine.
* sparc64 can have empty_zero_page in BSS rather allocate it, but it
  can't use virt_to_page() for BSS. Keep it's definition of ZERO_PAGE()
  but instead of allocating it, make mem_map_zero point to
  empty_zero_page.
* sh: used empty_zero_page for boot parameters at the very early boot.
  Rename the parameters page to boot_params_page and let sh use the generic
  empty_zero_page.
* hexagon: had an amusing comment about empty_zero_page

	/* A handy thing to have if one has the RAM. Declared in head.S */

  that unfortunately had to go :)

1d37713fa8 arm64: mm: Remove pmd_sect() and pud_sect()
The semantics of pXd_leaf() are very similar to pXd_sect(). The only
difference is that pXd_sect() only considers it a section if PTE_VALID
is set, whereas pXd_leaf() permits both "valid" and "present-invalid"
types.

Using pXd_sect() has caused issues now that large leaf entries can be
present-invalid since commit a166563e7e ("arm64: mm: support large
block mapping when rodata=full"), so let's just remove the API and
standardize on pXd_leaf().

There are a few callsites of the form pXd_leaf(READ_ONCE(*pXdp)). This
was previously fine for the pXd_sect() macro because it only evaluated
its argument once. But pXd_leaf() evaluates its argument multiple times.
So let's avoid unintended side effects by reimplementing pXd_leaf() as
an inline function.

15bfba1ad7 arm64: mm: Handle invalid large leaf mappings correctly
It has been possible for a long time to mark ptes in the linear map as
invalid. This is done for secretmem, kfence, realm dma memory un/share,
and others, by simply clearing the PTE_VALID bit. But until commit
a166563e7e ("arm64: mm: support large block mapping when
rodata=full") large leaf mappings were never made invalid in this way.

It turns out various parts of the code base are not equipped to handle
invalid large leaf mappings (in the way they are currently encoded) and
I've observed a kernel panic while booting a realm guest on a
BBML2_NOABORT system as a result:

This panic occurs because the swiotlb memory was previously shared to
the host (__set_memory_enc_dec()), which involves transitioning the
(large) leaf mappings to invalid, sharing to the host, then marking the
mappings valid again. But pageattr_p[mu]d_entry() would only update the
entry if it is a section mapping, since otherwise it concluded it must
be a table entry so shouldn't be modified. But p[mu]d_sect() only
returns true if the entry is valid. So the result was that the large
leaf entry was made invalid in the first pass then ignored in the second
pass. It remains invalid until the above code tries to access it and
blows up.

The simple fix would be to update pageattr_pmd_entry() to use
!pmd_table() instead of pmd_sect(). That would solve this problem.

But the ptdump code also suffers from a similar issue. It checks
pmd_leaf() and doesn't call into the arch-specific note_page() machinery
if it returns false. As a result of this, ptdump wasn't even able to
show the invalid large leaf mappings; it looked like they were valid
which made this super fun to debug. the ptdump code is core-mm and
pmd_table() is arm64-specific so we can't use the same trick to solve
that.

But we already support the concept of "present-invalid" for user space
entries. And even better, pmd_leaf() will return true for a leaf mapping
that is marked present-invalid. So let's just use that encoding for
present-invalid kernel mappings too. Then we can use pmd_leaf() where we
previously used pmd_sect() and everything is magically fixed.

Additionally, from inspection kernel_page_present() was broken in a
similar way, so I'm also updating that to use pmd_leaf().

The transitional page tables component was also similarly broken; it
creates a copy of the kernel page tables, making RO leaf mappings RW in
the process. It also makes invalid (but-not-none) pte mappings valid.
But it was not doing this for large leaf mappings. This could have
resulted in crashes at kexec- or hibernate-time. This code is fixed to
flip "present-invalid" mappings back to "present-valid" at all levels.

Finally, I have hardened split_pmd()/split_pud() so that if it is passed
a "present-invalid" leaf, it will maintain that property in the split
leaves, since I wasn't able to convince myself that it would only ever
be called for "present-valid" leaves.

f12b435de2 arm64: mm: Fix rodata=full block mapping support for realm guests
Commit a166563e7e ("arm64: mm: support large block mapping when
rodata=full") enabled the linear map to be mapped by block/cont while
still allowing granular permission changes on BBML2_NOABORT systems by
lazily splitting the live mappings. This mechanism was intended to be
usable by realm guests since they need to dynamically share dma buffers
with the host by "decrypting" them - which for Arm CCA, means marking
them as shared in the page tables.

However, it turns out that the mechanism was failing for realm guests
because realms need to share their dma buffers (via
__set_memory_enc_dec()) much earlier during boot than
split_kernel_leaf_mapping() was able to handle. The report linked below
showed that GIC's ITS was one such user. But during the investigation I
found other callsites that could not meet the
split_kernel_leaf_mapping() constraints.

The problem is that we block map the linear map based on the boot CPU
supporting BBML2_NOABORT, then check that all the other CPUs support it
too when finalizing the caps. If they don't, then we stop_machine() and
split to ptes. For safety, split_kernel_leaf_mapping() previously
wouldn't permit splitting until after the caps were finalized. That
ensured that if any secondary cpus were running that didn't support
BBML2_NOABORT, we wouldn't risk breaking them.

I've fix this problem by reducing the black-out window where we refuse
to split; there are now 2 windows. The first is from T0 until the page
allocator is inititialized. Splitting allocates memory for the page
allocator so it must be in use. The second covers the period between
starting to online the secondary cpus until the system caps are
finalized (this is a very small window).

All of the problematic callers are calling __set_memory_enc_dec() before
the secondary cpus come online, so this solves the problem. However, one
of these callers, swiotlb_update_mem_attributes(), was trying to split
before the page allocator was initialized. So I have moved this call
from arch_mm_preinit() to mem_init(), which solves the ordering issue.

I've added warnings and return an error if any attempt is made to split
in the black-out windows.

Note there are other issues which prevent booting all the way to user
space, which will be fixed in subsequent patches.

5e0deb0a6b arm64: mm: Use generic enum pgtable_level
enum pgtable_type was introduced for arm64 by commit c64f46ee13

introduced by commit b22cc9a9c7 ("mm/rmap: convert "enum

Let's switch to the generic enum pgtable_level. The only difference
is that it also includes PGD level; __pgd_pgtable_alloc() isn't
expected to create PGD tables so we add a VM_WARN_ON() for that
case.

95a58852b0 arm64/mm: Reject memory removal that splits a kernel leaf mapping
Linear and vmemmap mappings that get torn down during a memory hot remove
operation might contain leaf level entries on any page table level. If the
requested memory range's linear or vmemmap mappings falls within such leaf
entries, new mappings need to be created for the remaining memory mapped on
the leaf entry earlier, following standard break before make aka BBM rules.
But kernel cannot tolerate BBM and hence remapping to fine grained leaves
would not be possible on systems without BBML2_NOABORT.

Currently memory hot remove operation does not perform such restructuring,
and so removing memory ranges that could split a kernel leaf level mapping
need to be rejected.

While memory_hotplug.c does appear to permit hot removing arbitrary ranges
of memory, the higher layers that drive memory_hotplug (e.g. ACPI, virtio,
...) all appear to treat memory as fixed size devices. So it is impossible
to hot unplug a different amount than was previously hot plugged, and hence
we should never see a rejection in practice, but adding the check makes us
robust against a future change.

48478b9f79 arm64/mm: Enable batched TLB flush in unmap_hotplug_range()
During a memory hot remove operation, both linear and vmemmap mappings for
the memory range being removed, get unmapped via unmap_hotplug_range() but
mapped pages get freed only for vmemmap mapping. This is just a sequential
operation where each table entry gets cleared, followed by a leaf specific
TLB flush, and then followed by memory free operation when applicable.

This approach was simple and uniform both for vmemmap and linear mappings.
But linear mapping might contain CONT marked block memory where it becomes
necessary to first clear out all entire in the range before a TLB flush.
This is as per the architecture requirement. Hence batch all TLB flushes
during the table tear down walk and finally do it in unmap_hotplug_range().

Prior to this fix, it was hypothetically possible for a speculative access
to a higher address in the contiguous block to fill the TLB with shattered
entries for the entire contiguous range after a lower address had already
been cleared and invalidated. Due to the table entries being shattered, the
subsequent TLB invalidation for the higher address would not then clear the
TLB entries for the lower address, meaning stale TLB entries could persist.

Besides it also helps in improving the performance via TLBI range operation
along with reduced synchronization instructions. The time spent executing
unmap_hotplug_range() improved 97% measured over a 2GB memory hot removal
in KVM guest.

This scheme is not applicable during vmemmap mapping tear down where memory
needs to be freed and hence a TLB flush is required after clearing out page
table entry.

281a38ad29 KVM: arm64: Reclaim faulting page from pKVM in spurious fault handler
Host kernel accesses to pages that are inaccessible at stage-2 result in
the injection of a translation fault, which is fatal unless an exception
table fixup is registered for the faulting PC (e.g. for user access
routines). This is undesirable, since a get_user_pages() call could be
used to obtain a reference to a donated page and then a subsequent
access via a kernel mapping would lead to a panic().

Rework the spurious fault handler so that stage-2 faults injected back
into the host result in the target page being forcefully reclaimed when
no exception table fixup handler is registered.

9ff714a092 KVM: arm64: Inject SIGSEGV on illegal accesses
The pKVM hypervisor will currently panic if the host tries to access
memory that it doesn't own (e.g. protected guest memory). Sadly, as
guest memory can still be mapped into the VMM's address space, userspace
can trivially crash the kernel/hypervisor by poking into guest memory.

To prevent this, inject the abort back in the host with S1PTW set in the
ESR, hence allowing the host to differentiate this abort from normal
userspace faults and inject a SIGSEGV cleanly.

b7d9d2e3a8 arm64: mm: __ptep_set_access_flags must hint correct TTL
It has been reported that since commit 752a0d1d48 ("arm64: mm:
Provide level hint for flush_tlb_page()"), the arm64
check_hugetlb_options selftest has been locking up while running "Check
child hugetlb memory with private mapping, sync error mode and mmap
memory".

This is due to hugetlb (and THP) helpers casting their PMD/PUD entries
to PTE and calling __ptep_set_access_flags(), which issues a
__flush_tlb_page(). Now that this is hinted for level 3, in this case,
the TLB entry does not get evicted and we end up in a spurious fault
loop.

Fix this by creating a __ptep_set_access_flags_anysz() function which
takes the pgsize of the entry. It can then add the appropriate hint. The
"_anysz" approach is the established pattern for problems of this class.

d7eafe655b dma-mapping: Separate DMA sync issuing and completion waiting
Currently, arch_sync_dma_for_cpu and arch_sync_dma_for_device
always wait for the completion of each DMA buffer. That is,
issuing the DMA sync and waiting for completion is done in a
single API call.

For scatter-gather lists with multiple entries, this means
issuing and waiting is repeated for each entry, which can hurt
performance. Architectures like ARM64 may be able to issue all
DMA sync operations for all entries first and then wait for
completion together.

To address this, arch_sync_dma_for_* now batches DMA operations
and performs a flush afterward. On ARM64, the flush is implemented
with a dsb instruction in arch_sync_dma_flush(). On other
architectures, arch_sync_dma_flush() is currently a nop.

So let's rework flush_tlb_page() so that it simply wraps

options get eliminated so that the generated code for flush_tlb_page()

Flags all live in the tlbf_t (TLB flags) type; TLBF_NONE (0) continues
to provide the strongest semantics (i.e. evict from walk cache,
broadcast, synchronise and notify). Each flag reduces the strength in
some way; TLBF_NONOTIFY, TLBF_NOSYNC and TLBF_NOBROADCAST are added to
complement the existing TLBF_NOWALKCACHE.

There are no users that require TLBF_NOBROADCAST without

97c5550b76 arm64: contpte: fix set_access_flags() no-op check for SMMU/ATS faults
contpte_ptep_set_access_flags() compared the gathered ptep_get() value
against the requested entry to detect no-ops. ptep_get() ORs AF/dirty
from all sub-PTEs in the CONT block, so a dirty sibling can make the
target appear already-dirty. When the gathered value matches entry, the
function returns 0 even though the target sub-PTE still has PTE_RDONLY
set in hardware.

For a CPU with FEAT_HAFDBS this gathered view is fine, since hardware may
set AF/dirty on any sub-PTE and CPU TLB behavior is effectively gathered
across the CONT range. But page-table walkers that evaluate each
descriptor individually (e.g. a CPU without DBM support, or an SMMU
without HTTU, or with HA/HD disabled in CD.TCR) can keep faulting on the
unchanged target sub-PTE, causing an infinite fault loop.

Gathering can therefore cause false no-ops when only a sibling has been
updated:
 - write faults: target still has PTE_RDONLY (needs PTE_RDONLY cleared)
 - read faults:  target still lacks PTE_AF

Fix by checking each sub-PTE against the requested AF/dirty/write state
(the same bits consumed by __ptep_set_access_flags()), using raw
per-PTE values rather than the gathered ptep_get() view, before
returning no-op. Keep using the raw target PTE for the write-bit unfold
decision.

Per Arm ARM (DDI 0487) D8.7.1 ("The Contiguous bit"), any sub-PTE in a CONT
range may become the effective cached translation and software must
maintain consistent attributes across the range.

8a85b31312 arm64: gcs: Do not set PTE_SHARED on GCS mappings if FEAT_LPA2 is enabled
When FEAT_LPA2 is enabled, bits 8-9 of the PTE replace the
shareability attribute with bits 50-51 of the output address. The
_PAGE_GCS{,_RO} definitions include the PTE_SHARED bits as 0b11 (this
matches the other _PAGE_* definitions) but using this macro directly
leads to the following panic when enabling GCS on a system/model with
LPA2:

Similarly to how the kernel handles protection_map[], use a

if LPA2 is enabled.

Also remove the unused PAGE_GCS{,_RO} macros.

ioremap_prot() remains as a #define to __ioremap_prot() for

6f0e114217 arm64: mm: support batch clearing of the young flag for large folios
Currently, contpte_ptep_test_and_clear_young() and
contpte_ptep_clear_flush_young() only clear the young flag and flush TLBs
for PTEs within the contiguous range.  To support batch PTE operations for
other sized large folios in the following patches, adding a new parameter
to specify the number of PTEs that map consecutive pages of the same large
folio in a single VMA and a single page table.

While we are at it, rename the functions to maintain consistency with
other contpte_*() functions.

53c998527f arm64/gcs: Fix error handling in arch_set_shadow_stack_status()
alloc_gcs() returns an error-encoded pointer on failure, which comes
from do_mmap(), not NULL.

The current NULL check fails to detect errors, which could lead to using
an invalid GCS address.

Use IS_ERR_VALUE() to properly detect errors, consistent with the
check in gcs_alloc_thread_stack().

a4e5927115 arm64: mte: Set TCMA1 whenever MTE is present in the kernel
Set the TCMA1 bit so that access to TTBR1 addresses with 0xf in their
tag bits will be treated as tag unchecked.

This is important to avoid unwanted tag checking on some
systems. Specifically, SCTLR_EL1.TCF can be set to indicate that no
tag check faults are desired. But the architecture doesn't guarantee
that in this case the system won't still perform tag checks.

Use TCMA1 to ensure that undesired tag checks are not performed. This
bit was already set in the KASAN case. Adding it to the non-KASAN case
prevents tag checking since all TTBR1 address will have a value of 0xf
in their tag bits.

This patch has been measured on an Ampere system to improve the following:

* Eliminate over 98% of kernel-side tag checks during "perf bench
  futex hash", as measured with "perf stat".

* Eliminate all MTE overhead (was previously a 25% performance
  penalty) from the Phoronix pts/memcached benchmark (1:10 Set:Get
  ration with 96 cores).

9ac4941ace arm64/mm: add addr parameter to __set_ptes_anysz()
Patch series "Support page table check on PowerPC", v18.

Support page table check on PowerPC.  Page table check tracks the usage of
of page table entries at each level to ensure that anonymous mappings have
at most one writable consumer, and likewise that file-backed mappings are
not simultaneously also anonymous mappings.

In order to support this infrastructure, a number of helpers or stubs must
be defined or updated for all powerpc platforms.  Additionally, we
separate set_pte_at() and set_pte_at_unchecked(), to allow for internal,
uninstrumented mappings.

On some PowerPC platforms, implementing
{pte,pmd,pud}_user_accessible_page() requires the address.  We revert
previous changes that removed the address parameter from various
interfaces, and add it to some other interfaces, in order to allow this.

For now, we don't allow page table check alongside HUGETLB_PAGE, due to
the arch-specific complexity of set_huge_page_at().  (I'm sure I could
figure this out, but I have to get this version on this list before I
leave my job.)

This series was initially written by Rohan McLure, who has left IBM and is
no longer working on powerpc.


This patch (of 18):

To provide support for page table check on powerpc, we need to reinstate
the address parameter in several functions, including
page_table_check_{ptes,pmds,puds}_set().

In preparation for this, add the addr parameter to arm64's
__set_ptes_anysz() and change its callsites accordingly.

9fac145b6d mm, arch: consolidate hugetlb CMA reservation
Every architecture that supports hugetlb_cma command line parameter
reserves CMA areas for hugetlb during setup_arch().

This obfuscates the ordering of hugetlb CMA initialization with respect to
the rest initialization of the core MM.

Introduce arch_hugetlb_cma_order() callback to allow architectures report
the desired order-per-bit of CMA areas and provide a week implementation
of arch_hugetlb_cma_order() for architectures that don't support hugetlb
with CMA.

Use this callback in hugetlb_cma_reserve() instead if passing the order as
parameter and call hugetlb_cma_reserve() from mm_core_init_early() rather
than have it spread over architecture specific code.

4267739cab arch, mm: consolidate initialization of SPARSE memory model
Every architecture calls sparse_init() during setup_arch() although the
data structures created by sparse_init() are not used until the
initialization of the core MM.

Beside the code duplication, calling sparse_init() from architecture
specific code causes ordering differences of vmemmap and HVO
initialization on different architectures.

Move the call to sparse_init() from architecture specific code to
free_area_init() to ensure that vmemmap and HVO initialization order is
always the same.

d49004c5f0 arch, mm: consolidate initialization of nodes, zones and memory map
To initialize node, zone and memory map data structures every architecture
calls free_area_init() during setup_arch() and passes it an array of zone
limits.

Beside code duplication it creates "interesting" ordering cases between
allocation and initialization of hugetlb and the memory map.  Some
architectures allocate hugetlb pages very early in setup_arch() in certain
cases, some only create hugetlb CMA areas in setup_arch() and sometimes
hugetlb allocations happen mm_core_init().

With arch_zone_limits_init() helper available now on all architectures it
is no longer necessary to call free_area_init() from architecture setup
code.  Rather core MM initialization can call arch_zone_limits_init() in a
single place.

This allows to unify ordering of hugetlb vs memory map allocation and
initialization.

Remove the call to free_area_init() from architecture specific code and
place it in a new mm_core_init_early() function that is called immediately
after setup_arch().

After this refactoring it is possible to consolidate hugetlb allocations
and eliminate differences in ordering of hugetlb and memory map
initialization among different architectures.

As the first step of this consolidation move hugetlb_bootmem_alloc() to
mm_core_early_init().

60b35af0a6 arm64: introduce arch_zone_limits_init()
Move calculations of zone limits to a dedicated arch_zone_limits_init()
function.

Later MM core will use this function as an architecture specific callback
during nodes and zones initialization and thus there won't be a need to
call free_area_init() from every architecture.

While on it rename zone_sizes_init() to dma_limits_init() to better
reflect what that function does.

53f45f045c arm64: mm: warn once for ioremap attempts on RAM mappings
Replace WARN_ON with WARN_ONCE when detecting attempts to ioremap
RAM. This prevents log spam when a misbehaving driver repeatedly tries
to map RAM via ioremap.

A single warning is more than enough to show the broken code path, and
extra reports don't add extra information.

Warning floods have been seen in production environments where broken
external drivers hit this code path thousand of times, causing
unnecessary messages to be printed and pressure on the serial console.

0a096ab7a3 mm: introduce generic lazy_mmu helpers
The implementation of the lazy MMU mode is currently entirely
arch-specific; core code directly calls arch helpers:
arch_{enter,leave}_lazy_mmu_mode().

We are about to introduce support for nested lazy MMU sections.  As things
stand we'd have to duplicate that logic in every arch implementing
lazy_mmu - adding to a fair amount of logic already duplicated across
lazy_mmu implementations.

This patch therefore introduces a new generic layer that calls the
existing arch_* helpers. Two pair of calls are introduced:

* lazy_mmu_mode_enable() ... lazy_mmu_mode_disable()
    This is the standard case where the mode is enabled for a given
    block of code by surrounding it with enable() and disable()
    calls.

* lazy_mmu_mode_pause() ... lazy_mmu_mode_resume()
    This is for situations where the mode is temporarily disabled
    by first calling pause() and then resume() (e.g. to prevent any
    batching from occurring in a critical section).

The documentation in <linux/pgtable.h> will be updated in a subsequent
patch.

No functional change should be introduced at this stage.  The
implementation of enable()/resume() and disable()/pause() is currently
identical, but nesting support will change that.

Most of the call sites have been updated using the following Coccinelle
script:

@@
@@
{
...
- arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode();
+ lazy_mmu_mode_enable();
...
- arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode();
+ lazy_mmu_mode_disable();
...
}

@@
@@
{
...
- arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode();
+ lazy_mmu_mode_pause();
...
- arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode();
+ lazy_mmu_mode_resume();
...
}

A couple of notes regarding x86:

* Xen is currently the only case where explicit handling is required
  for lazy MMU when context-switching. This is purely an
  implementation detail and using the generic lazy_mmu_mode_*
  functions would cause trouble when nesting support is introduced,
  because the generic functions must be called from the current task.
  For that reason we still use arch_leave() and arch_enter() there.

* x86 calls arch_flush_lazy_mmu_mode() unconditionally in a few
  places, but only defines it if PARAVIRT_XXL is selected, and we
  are removing the fallback in <linux/pgtable.h>. Add a new fallback
  definition to <asm/pgtable.h> to keep things building.
