577a8d3bae KVM: Reject wrapped offset in kvm_reset_dirty_gfn()
kvm_reset_dirty_gfn() guards the gfn range with

	if (!memslot || (offset + __fls(mask)) >= memslot->npages)
		return;

but offset is u64 and the addition is unchecked.  The check can be
silently bypassed by a u64 wrap.

The dirty ring backing those entries is MAP_SHARED at
KVM_DIRTY_LOG_PAGE_OFFSET of the vcpu fd, so the VMM can rewrite the
slot and offset fields of any entry between when the kernel pushes
them and when KVM_RESET_DIRTY_RINGS consumes them.  On reset,
kvm_dirty_ring_reset() re-reads the values via READ_ONCE() and feeds
them straight back into this check; only the flags handshake is
treated as the handover, the slot/offset payload is taken on trust.

Crafting two entries

	entry[i].offset   = 0xffffffffffffffc1
	entry[i+1].offset = 0

makes the coalescing loop in kvm_dirty_ring_reset() compute

	delta = (s64)(0 - 0xffffffffffffffc1) = 63

which falls in [0, BITS_PER_LONG), so it folds entry[i+1] into the
existing mask by setting bit 63.  The trailing kvm_reset_dirty_gfn()
call then sees offset = 0xffffffffffffffc1 and __fls(mask) = 63;
the sum is 0 in u64 and the bounds check passes.

That offset propagates into kvm_arch_mmu_enable_log_dirty_pt_masked()
unchanged.  On the legacy MMU path -- kvm_memslots_have_rmaps() ==
true, i.e. shadow paging, any VM that has allocated shadow roots, or
a write-tracked slot -- it reaches gfn_to_rmap(), which indexes
slot->arch.rmap[0][] with a near-U64_MAX gfn.  That is an
out-of-bounds load of a kvm_rmap_head, followed by a conditional
clear of PT_WRITABLE_MASK in whatever the loaded pointer points at.
The path is reachable from any process holding /dev/kvm.

Range-check offset on its own first, so the addition cannot wrap.
memslot->npages is bounded well below U64_MAX, so once offset <
npages holds, offset + __fls(mask) (with __fls(mask) < BITS_PER_LONG)
stays in range.

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.

 - The 30 patch series "maple_tree: Replace big node with maple copy"
   from Liam Howlett is mainly prepararatory work for ongoing development
   but it does reduce stack usage and is an improvement.
 
 - The 12 patch series "mm, swap: swap table phase III: remove swap_map"
   from Kairui Song offers memory savings by removing the static swap_map.
   It also yields some CPU savings and implements several cleanups.
 
 - The 2 patch series "mm: memfd_luo: preserve file seals" from Pratyush
   Yadav adds file seal preservation to LUO's memfd code.

4a530993da KVM x86 VMXON and EFER.SVME extraction for 7.1
Move _only_ VMXON+VMXOFF and EFER.SVME toggling out of KVM (versus all of VMX
 and SVM enabling) out of KVM and into the core kernel so that non-KVM TDX
 enabling, e.g. for trusted I/O, can make SEAMCALLs without needing to ensure
 KVM is fully loaded.
 
 TDX isn't a hypervisor, and isn't trying to be a hypervisor. Specifically, TDX
 should _never_ have it's own VMCSes (that are visible to the host; the
 TDX-Module has it's own VMCSes to do SEAMCALL/SEAMRET), and so there is simply
 no reason to move that functionality out of KVM.
 
 With that out of the way, dealing with VMXON/VMXOFF and EFER.SVME is a fairly
 simple refcounting game.

Add '__read_mostly' to the halt polling parameters (halt_poll_ns,
halt_poll_ns_grow, halt_poll_ns_grow_start, halt_poll_ns_shrink) since
they are frequently read in hot paths (e.g., vCPU halt handling) but only
occasionally updated via sysfs. This improves cache locality on SMP
systems.

Conversely, mark 'allow_unsafe_mappings' and 'enable_virt_at_load' with
'__ro_after_init', as they are set only during module initialization via
kernel command line or early sysfs writes and remain constant thereafter.
This enhances security by preventing runtime modification and enables
compiler optimizations.

        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning

KVM mediated PMU support for 6.20

Add support for mediated PMUs, where KVM gives the guest full ownership of PMU
hardware (contexted switched around the fastpath run loop) and allows direct
access to data MSRs and PMCs (restricted by the vPMU model), but intercepts
access to control registers, e.g. to enforce event filtering and to prevent the
guest from profiling sensitive host state.

To keep overall complexity reasonable, mediated PMU usage is all or nothing
for a given instance of KVM (controlled via module param).  The Mediated PMU
is disabled default, partly to maintain backwards compatilibity for existing
setup, partly because there are tradeoffs when running with a mediated PMU that
may be non-starters for some use cases, e.g. the host loses the ability to
profile guests with mediated PMUs, the fastpath run loop is also a blind spot,
entry/exit transitions are more expensive, etc.

Versus the emulated PMU, where KVM is "just another perf user", the mediated
PMU delivers more accurate profiling and monitoring (no risk of contention and
thus dropped events), with significantly less overhead (fewer exits and faster
emulation/programming of event selectors) E.g. when running Specint-2017 on
a single-socket Sapphire Rapids with 56 cores and no-SMT, and using perf from
within the guest:

  Perf command:
  a. basic-sampling: perf record -F 1000 -e 6-instructions  -a --overwrite
  b. multiplex-sampling: perf record -F 1000 -e 10-instructions -a --overwrite

  Guest performance overhead:

KVM x86 APIC-ish changes for 6.20

 - Fix a benign bug where KVM could use the wrong memslots (ignored SMM) when
   creating a vCPU-specific mapping of guest memory.

 - Clean up KVM's handling of marking mapped vCPU pages dirty.

 - Drop a pile of *ancient* sanity checks hidden behind in KVM's unused
   ASSERT() macro, most of which could be trivially triggered by the guest
   and/or user, and all of which were useless.

 - Fold "struct dest_map" into its sole user, "struct rtc_status", to make it
   more obvious what the weird parameter is used for, and to allow burying the
   RTC shenanigans behind CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC=y.

 - Bury all of ioapic.h and KVM_IRQCHIP_KERNEL behind CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC=y.

 - Add a regression test for recent APICv update fixes.

 - Rework KVM's handling of VMCS updates while L2 is active to temporarily
   switch to vmcs01 instead of deferring the update until the next nested
   VM-Exit.  The deferred updates approach directly contributed to several
   bugs, was proving to be a maintenance burden due to the difficulty in
   auditing the correctness of deferred updates, and was polluting
   "struct nested_vmx" with a growing pile of booleans.

 - Handle "hardware APIC ISR", a.k.a. SVI, updates in kvm_apic_update_apicv()
   to consolidate the updates, and to co-locate SVI updates with the updates
   for KVM's own cache of ISR information.

 - Drop a dead function declaration.

KVM guest_memfd changes for 6.20

 - Remove kvm_gmem_populate()'s preparation tracking and half-baked hugepage
   handling, and instead rely on SNP (the only user of the tracking) to do its
   own tracking via the RMP.

 - Retroactively document and enforce (for SNP) that KVM_SEV_SNP_LAUNCH_UPDATE
   and KVM_TDX_INIT_MEM_REGION require the source page to be 4KiB aligned, to
   avoid non-trivial complexity for a non-existent usecase (and because
   in-place conversion simply can't support unaligned sources).

 - When populating guest_memfd memory, GUP the source page in common code and
   pass the refcounted page to the vendor callback, instead of letting vendor
   code do the heavy lifting.  Doing so avoids a looming deadlock bug with
   in-place due an AB-BA conflict betwee mmap_lock and guest_memfd's filemap
   invalidate lock.

2a62345b30 KVM: guest_memfd: GUP source pages prior to populating guest memory
Currently the post-populate callbacks handle copying source pages into
private GPA ranges backed by guest_memfd, where kvm_gmem_populate()
acquires the filemap invalidate lock, then calls a post-populate
callback which may issue a get_user_pages() on the source pages prior to
copying them into the private GPA (e.g. TDX).

This will not be compatible with in-place conversion, where the
userspace page fault path will attempt to acquire the filemap invalidate
lock while holding the mm->mmap_lock, leading to a potential ABBA
deadlock.

Address this by hoisting the GUP above the filemap invalidate lock so
that these page faults path can be taken early, prior to acquiring the
filemap invalidate lock.

It's not currently clear whether this issue is reachable with the
current implementation of guest_memfd, which doesn't support in-place
conversion, however it does provide a consistent mechanism to provide
stable source/target PFNs to callbacks rather than punting to
vendor-specific code, which allows for more commonality across
architectures, which may be worthwhile even without in-place conversion.

As part of this change, also begin enforcing that the 'src' argument to
kvm_gmem_populate() must be page-aligned, as this greatly reduces the
complexity around how the post-populate callbacks are implemented, and
since no current in-tree users support using a non-page-aligned 'src'
argument.

8622ef0570 KVM: guest_memfd: Remove preparation tracking
guest_memfd currently uses the folio uptodate flag to track:

  1) whether or not a page has been cleared before initial usage
  2) whether or not the architecture hooks have been issued to put the
     page in a private state as defined by the architecture

In practice, (2) is only actually being tracked for SEV-SNP VMs, and
there do not seem to be any plans/reasons that would suggest this will
change in the future, so this additional tracking/complexity is not
really providing any general benefit to guest_memfd users.  On the other
hand, future plans around in-place conversion and hugepage support will
make the burden of tracking this information within guest_memfd even more
complex.

With in-place conversion and hugepage support, the plan is to use the
per-folio uptodate flag purely to track the initial clearing of folios,
whereas conversion operations could trigger multiple transitions between
'prepared' and 'unprepared' and thus need separate tracking.  Since
preparation generally happens during fault time, i.e. on the "read-side"
of any VM-wide locks that might protect state tracked by guest_memfd,
supporting concurrent handling of page faults would likely require more
complex locking schemes if the "preparedness" state were tracked by
guest_memfd, i.e. if it needs to be updated as part of handling the fault.

Instead of keeping this current/future complexity within guest_memfd for
what is essentially just SEV-SNP, just drop the tracking for (2) and have
the arch-specific preparation hooks get triggered unconditionally on
every fault so the arch-specific hooks can check the preparation state
directly and decide whether or not a folio still needs additional
preparation. In the case of SEV-SNP, the preparation state is already
checked again via the preparation hooks to avoid double-preparation, so
nothing extra needs to be done to update the handling of things there.

6538b6221c KVM: guest_memfd: Remove partial hugepage handling from kvm_gmem_populate()
kvm_gmem_populate(), and the associated post-populate callbacks, have
some limited support for dealing with guests backed by hugepages by
passing the order information along to each post-populate callback and
iterating through the pages passed to kvm_gmem_populate() in
hugepage-chunks.

However, guest_memfd doesn't yet support hugepages, and in most cases
additional changes in the kvm_gmem_populate() path would also be needed
to actually allow for this functionality.

This makes the existing code unnecessarily complex, and makes changes
difficult to work through upstream due to theoretical impacts on
hugepage support that can't be considered properly without an actual
hugepage implementation to reference. So for now, remove what's there
so changes for things like in-place conversion can be
implemented/reviewed more efficiently.

b4d37cdb77 KVM: Don't clobber irqfd routing type when deassigning irqfd
When deassigning a KVM_IRQFD, don't clobber the irqfd's copy of the IRQ's
routing entry as doing so breaks kvm_arch_irq_bypass_del_producer() on x86
and arm64, which explicitly look for KVM_IRQ_ROUTING_MSI.  Instead, to
handle a concurrent routing update, verify that the irqfd is still active
before consuming the routing information.  As evidenced by the x86 and
arm64 bugs, and another bug in kvm_arch_update_irqfd_routing() (see below),
clobbering the entry type without notifying arch code is surprising and
error prone.

As a bonus, checking that the irqfd is active provides a convenient
location for documenting _why_ KVM must not consume the routing entry for
an irqfd that is in the process of being deassigned: once the irqfd is
deleted from the list (which happens *before* the eventfd is detached), it
will no longer receive updates via kvm_irq_routing_update(), and so KVM
could deliver an event using stale routing information (relative to
KVM_SET_GSI_ROUTING returning to userspace).

As an even better bonus, explicitly checking for the irqfd being active
fixes a similar bug to the one the clobbering is trying to prevent: if an
irqfd is deactivated, and then its routing is changed,
kvm_irq_routing_update() won't invoke kvm_arch_update_irqfd_routing()
(because the irqfd isn't in the list).  And so if the irqfd is in bypass
mode, IRQs will continue to be posted using the old routing information.

As for kvm_arch_irq_bypass_del_producer(), clobbering the routing type
results in KVM incorrectly keeping the IRQ in bypass mode, which is
especially problematic on AMD as KVM tracks IRQs that are being posted to
a vCPU in a list whose lifetime is tied to the irqfd.

Without the help of KASAN to detect use-after-free, the most common
sympton on AMD is a NULL pointer deref in amd_iommu_update_ga() due to
the memory for irqfd structure being re-allocated and zeroed, resulting
in irqfd->irq_bypass_data being NULL when read by
avic_update_iommu_vcpu_affinity():

On Intel and arm64, the bug is less noisy, as the end result is that the
device keeps posting IRQs to the vCPU even after it's been deassigned.

Note, the worst of the breakage can be traced back to commit cb21073767
("KVM: Pass new routing entries and irqfd when updating IRTEs"), as before
that commit KVM would pull the routing information from the per-VM routing
table.  But as above, similar bugs have existed since support for IRQ
bypass was added.  E.g. if a routing change finished before irq_shutdown()
invoked kvm_arch_irq_bypass_del_producer(), VMX and SVM would see stale
routing information and potentially leave the irqfd in bypass mode.

Alternatively, x86 could be fixed by explicitly checking irq_bypass_vcpu
instead of irq_entry.type in kvm_arch_irq_bypass_del_producer(), and arm64
could be modified to utilize irq_bypass_vcpu in a similar manner.  But (a)
that wouldn't fix the routing updates bug, and (b) fixing core code doesn't
preclude x86 (or arm64) from adding such code as a sanity check (spoiler
alert).

44da6629d2 KVM: Use vCPU specific memslots in __kvm_vcpu_map()
When establishing a "host access map", lookup the gfn in the vCPU specific
memslots, as the intent is that the mapping will be established for the
current vCPU context.  Specifically, using __kvm_vcpu_map() in x86's SMM
context should create mappings based on the SMM memslots, not the non-SMM
memslots.

Luckily, the bug is benign as x86 is the only architecture with multiple
memslot address spaces, and all of x86's usage is limited to non-SMM.  The
calls in (or reachable by) {svm,vmx}_enter_smm() are made before
enter_smm() sets HF_SMM_MASK, and the calls in {svm,vmx}_leave_smm() are
made after emulator_leave_smm() clears HF_SMM_MASK.

Note, kvm_vcpu_unmap() uses the vCPU specific memslots, only the map() side
of things is broken.

da142f3d37 KVM: Remove subtle "struct kvm_stats_desc" pseudo-overlay
Remove KVM's internal pseudo-overlay of kvm_stats_desc, which subtly
aliases the flexible name[] in the uAPI definition with a fixed-size array
of the same name.  The unusual embedded structure results in compiler
warnings due to -Wflex-array-member-not-at-end, and also necessitates an
extra level of dereferencing in KVM.  To avoid the "overlay", define the
uAPI structure to have a fixed-size name when building for the kernel.

Opportunistically clean up the indentation for the stats macros, and
replace spaces with tabs.

No functional change intended.

0499add8ef KVM fixes for 6.19-rc1
- Add a missing "break" to fix param parsing in the rseq selftest.
 
  - Apply runtime updates to the _current_ CPUID when userspace is setting
    CPUID, e.g. as part of vCPU hotplug, to fix a false positive and to avoid
    dropping the pending update.
 
  - Disallow toggling KVM_MEM_GUEST_MEMFD on an existing memslot, as it's not
    supported by KVM and leads to a use-after-free due to KVM failing to unbind
    the memslot from the previously-associated guest_memfd instance.
 
  - Harden against similar KVM_MEM_GUEST_MEMFD goofs, and prepare for supporting
    flags-only changes on KVM_MEM_GUEST_MEMFD memlslots, e.g. for dirty logging.
 
  - Set exit_code[63:32] to -1 (all 0xffs) when synthesizing a nested
    SVM_EXIT_ERR (a.k.a. VMEXIT_INVALID) #VMEXIT, as VMEXIT_INVALID is defined
    as -1ull (a 64-bit value).
 
  - Update SVI when activating APICv to fix a bug where a post-activation EOI
    for an in-service IRQ would effective be lost due to SVI being stale.
 
  - Immediately refresh APICv controls (if necessary) on a nested VM-Exit
    instead of deferring the update via KVM_REQ_APICV_UPDATE, as the request is
    effectively ignored because KVM thinks the vCPU already has the correct
    APICv settings.

a05385d84b perf/x86/core: Register a new vector for handling mediated guest PMIs
Wire up system vector 0xf5 for handling PMIs (i.e. interrupts delivered
through the LVTPC) while running KVM guests with a mediated PMU.  Perf
currently delivers all PMIs as NMIs, e.g. so that events that trigger while
IRQs are disabled aren't delayed and generate useless records, but due to
the multiplexing of NMIs throughout the system, correctly identifying NMIs
for a mediated PMU is practically infeasible.

To (greatly) simplify identifying guest mediated PMU PMIs, perf will
switch the CPU's LVTPC between PERF_GUEST_MEDIATED_PMI_VECTOR and NMI when
guest PMU context is loaded/put.  I.e. PMIs that are generated by the CPU
while the guest is active will be identified purely based on the IRQ
vector.

Route the vector through perf, e.g. as opposed to letting KVM attach a
handler directly a la posted interrupt notification vectors, as perf owns
the LVTPC and thus is the rightful owner of PERF_GUEST_MEDIATED_PMI_VECTOR.
Functionally, having KVM directly own the vector would be fine (both KVM
and perf will be completely aware of when a mediated PMU is active), but
would lead to an undesirable split in ownership: perf would be responsible
for installing the vector, but not handling the resulting IRQs.

Add a new perf_guest_info_callbacks hook (and static call) to allow KVM to
register its handler with perf when running guests with mediated PMUs.

Note, because KVM always runs guests with host IRQs enabled, there is no
danger of a PMI being delayed from the guest's perspective due to using a
regular IRQ instead of an NMI.

51d90a15fe ARM:
- Support for userspace handling of synchronous external aborts (SEAs),
   allowing the VMM to potentially handle the abort in a non-fatal
   manner.
 
 - Large rework of the VGIC's list register handling with the goal of
   supporting more active/pending IRQs than available list registers in
   hardware. In addition, the VGIC now supports EOImode==1 style
   deactivations for IRQs which may occur on a separate vCPU than the
   one that acked the IRQ.
 
 - Support for FEAT_XNX (user / privileged execute permissions) and
   FEAT_HAF (hardware update to the Access Flag) in the software page
   table walkers and shadow MMU.
 
 - Allow page table destruction to reschedule, fixing long need_resched
   latencies observed when destroying a large VM.
 
 - Minor fixes to KVM and selftests
 
 Loongarch:
 
 - Get VM PMU capability from HW GCFG register.
 
 - Add AVEC basic support.
 
 - Use 64-bit register definition for EIOINTC.
 
 - Add KVM timer test cases for tools/selftests.
 
 RISC/V:
 
 - SBI message passing (MPXY) support for KVM guest
 
 - Give a new, more specific error subcode for the case when in-kernel
   AIA virtualization fails to allocate IMSIC VS-file
 
 - Support KVM_DIRTY_LOG_INITIALLY_SET, enabling dirty log gradually
   in small chunks
 
 - Fix guest page fault within HLV* instructions
 
 - Flush VS-stage TLB after VCPU migration for Andes cores
 
 s390:
 
 - Always allocate ESCA (Extended System Control Area), instead of
   starting with the basic SCA and converting to ESCA with the
   addition of the 65th vCPU.  The price is increased number of
   exits (and worse performance) on z10 and earlier processor;
   ESCA was introduced by z114/z196 in 2010.
 
 - VIRT_XFER_TO_GUEST_WORK support
 
 - Operation exception forwarding support
 
 - Cleanups
 
 x86:
 
 - Skip the costly "zap all SPTEs" on an MMIO generation wrap if MMIO SPTE
   caching is disabled, as there can't be any relevant SPTEs to zap.
 
 - Relocate a misplaced export.
 
 - Fix an async #PF bug where KVM would clear the completion queue when the
   guest transitioned in and out of paging mode, e.g. when handling an SMI and
   then returning to paged mode via RSM.
 
 - Leave KVM's user-return notifier registered even when disabling
   virtualization, as long as kvm.ko is loaded.  On reboot/shutdown, keeping
   the notifier registered is ok; the kernel does not use the MSRs and the
   callback will run cleanly and restore host MSRs if the CPU manages to
   return to userspace before the system goes down.
 
 - Use the checked version of {get,put}_user().
 
 - Fix a long-lurking bug where KVM's lack of catch-up logic for periodic APIC
   timers can result in a hard lockup in the host.
 
 - Revert the periodic kvmclock sync logic now that KVM doesn't use a
   clocksource that's subject to NTP corrections.
 
 - Clean up KVM's handling of MMIO Stale Data and L1TF, and bury the latter
   behind CONFIG_CPU_MITIGATIONS.
 
 - Context switch XCR0, XSS, and PKRU outside of the entry/exit fast path;
   the only reason they were handled in the fast path was to paper of a bug
   in the core #MC code, and that has long since been fixed.
 
 - Add emulator support for AVX MOV instructions, to play nice with emulated
   devices whose guest drivers like to access PCI BARs with large multi-byte
   instructions.
 
 x86 (AMD):
 
 - Fix a few missing "VMCB dirty" bugs.
 
 - Fix the worst of KVM's lack of EFER.LMSLE emulation.
 
 - Add AVIC support for addressing 4k vCPUs in x2AVIC mode.
 
 - Fix incorrect handling of selective CR0 writes when checking intercepts
   during emulation of L2 instructions.
 
 - Fix a currently-benign bug where KVM would clobber SPEC_CTRL[63:32] on
   VMRUN and #VMEXIT.
 
 - Fix a bug where KVM corrupt the guest code stream when re-injecting a soft
   interrupt if the guest patched the underlying code after the VM-Exit, e.g.
   when Linux patches code with a temporary INT3.
 
 - Add KVM_X86_SNP_POLICY_BITS to advertise supported SNP policy bits to
   userspace, and extend KVM "support" to all policy bits that don't require
   any actual support from KVM.
 
 x86 (Intel):
 
 - Use the root role from kvm_mmu_page to construct EPTPs instead of the
   current vCPU state, partly as worthwhile cleanup, but mostly to pave the
   way for tracking per-root TLB flushes, and elide EPT flushes on pCPU
   migration if the root is clean from a previous flush.
 
 - Add a few missing nested consistency checks.
 
 - Rip out support for doing "early" consistency checks via hardware as the
   functionality hasn't been used in years and is no longer useful in general;
   replace it with an off-by-default module param to WARN if hardware fails
   a check that KVM does not perform.
 
 - Fix a currently-benign bug where KVM would drop the guest's SPEC_CTRL[63:32]
   on VM-Enter.
 
 - Misc cleanups.
 
 - Overhaul the TDX code to address systemic races where KVM (acting on behalf
   of userspace) could inadvertantly trigger lock contention in the TDX-Module;
   KVM was either working around these in weird, ugly ways, or was simply
   oblivious to them (though even Yan's devilish selftests could only break
   individual VMs, not the host kernel)
 
 - Fix a bug where KVM could corrupt a vCPU's cpu_list when freeing a TDX vCPU,
   if creating said vCPU failed partway through.
 
 - Fix a few sparse warnings (bad annotation, 0 != NULL).
 
 - Use struct_size() to simplify copying TDX capabilities to userspace.
 
 - Fix a bug where TDX would effectively corrupt user-return MSR values if the
   TDX Module rejects VP.ENTER and thus doesn't clobber host MSRs as expected.
 
 Selftests:
 
 - Fix a math goof in mmu_stress_test when running on a single-CPU system/VM.
 
 - Forcefully override ARCH from x86_64 to x86 to play nice with specifying
   ARCH=x86_64 on the command line.
 
 - Extend a bunch of nested VMX to validate nested SVM as well.
 
 - Add support for LA57 in the core VM_MODE_xxx macro, and add a test to
   verify KVM can save/restore nested VMX state when L1 is using 5-level
   paging, but L2 is not.
 
 - Clean up the guest paging code in anticipation of sharing the core logic for
   nested EPT and nested NPT.
 
 guest_memfd:
 
 - Add NUMA mempolicy support for guest_memfd, and clean up a variety of
   rough edges in guest_memfd along the way.
 
 - Define a CLASS to automatically handle get+put when grabbing a guest_memfd
   from a memslot to make it harder to leak references.
 
 - Enhance KVM selftests to make it easer to develop and debug selftests like
   those added for guest_memfd NUMA support, e.g. where test and/or KVM bugs
   often result in hard-to-debug SIGBUS errors.
 
 - Misc cleanups.
 
 Generic:
 
 - Use the recently-added WQ_PERCPU when creating the per-CPU workqueue for
   irqfd cleanup.
 
 - Fix a goof in the dirty ring documentation.
 
 - Fix choice of target for directed yield across different calls to
   kvm_vcpu_on_spin(); the function was always starting from the first
   vCPU instead of continuing the round-robin search.

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "ARM:

   - Support for userspace handling of synchronous external aborts
     (SEAs), allowing the VMM to potentially handle the abort in a
     non-fatal manner

   - Large rework of the VGIC's list register handling with the goal of
     supporting more active/pending IRQs than available list registers
     in hardware. In addition, the VGIC now supports EOImode==1 style
     deactivations for IRQs which may occur on a separate vCPU than the
     one that acked the IRQ

   - Support for FEAT_XNX (user / privileged execute permissions) and
     FEAT_HAF (hardware update to the Access Flag) in the software page
     table walkers and shadow MMU

   - Allow page table destruction to reschedule, fixing long
     need_resched latencies observed when destroying a large VM

   - Minor fixes to KVM and selftests

  Loongarch:

   - Get VM PMU capability from HW GCFG register

   - Add AVEC basic support

   - Use 64-bit register definition for EIOINTC

   - Add KVM timer test cases for tools/selftests

  RISC/V:

   - SBI message passing (MPXY) support for KVM guest

   - Give a new, more specific error subcode for the case when in-kernel
     AIA virtualization fails to allocate IMSIC VS-file

   - Support KVM_DIRTY_LOG_INITIALLY_SET, enabling dirty log gradually
     in small chunks

   - Fix guest page fault within HLV* instructions

   - Flush VS-stage TLB after VCPU migration for Andes cores

  s390:

   - Always allocate ESCA (Extended System Control Area), instead of
     starting with the basic SCA and converting to ESCA with the
     addition of the 65th vCPU. The price is increased number of exits
     (and worse performance) on z10 and earlier processor; ESCA was
     introduced by z114/z196 in 2010

   - VIRT_XFER_TO_GUEST_WORK support

   - Operation exception forwarding support

   - Cleanups

  x86:

   - Skip the costly "zap all SPTEs" on an MMIO generation wrap if MMIO
     SPTE caching is disabled, as there can't be any relevant SPTEs to
     zap

   - Relocate a misplaced export

   - Fix an async #PF bug where KVM would clear the completion queue
     when the guest transitioned in and out of paging mode, e.g. when
     handling an SMI and then returning to paged mode via RSM

   - Leave KVM's user-return notifier registered even when disabling
     virtualization, as long as kvm.ko is loaded. On reboot/shutdown,
     keeping the notifier registered is ok; the kernel does not use the
     MSRs and the callback will run cleanly and restore host MSRs if the
     CPU manages to return to userspace before the system goes down

   - Use the checked version of {get,put}_user()

   - Fix a long-lurking bug where KVM's lack of catch-up logic for
     periodic APIC timers can result in a hard lockup in the host

   - Revert the periodic kvmclock sync logic now that KVM doesn't use a
     clocksource that's subject to NTP corrections

   - Clean up KVM's handling of MMIO Stale Data and L1TF, and bury the
     latter behind CONFIG_CPU_MITIGATIONS

   - Context switch XCR0, XSS, and PKRU outside of the entry/exit fast
     path; the only reason they were handled in the fast path was to
     paper of a bug in the core #MC code, and that has long since been
     fixed

   - Add emulator support for AVX MOV instructions, to play nice with
     emulated devices whose guest drivers like to access PCI BARs with
     large multi-byte instructions

  x86 (AMD):

   - Fix a few missing "VMCB dirty" bugs

   - Fix the worst of KVM's lack of EFER.LMSLE emulation

   - Add AVIC support for addressing 4k vCPUs in x2AVIC mode

   - Fix incorrect handling of selective CR0 writes when checking
     intercepts during emulation of L2 instructions

   - Fix a currently-benign bug where KVM would clobber SPEC_CTRL[63:32]
     on VMRUN and #VMEXIT

   - Fix a bug where KVM corrupt the guest code stream when re-injecting
     a soft interrupt if the guest patched the underlying code after the
     VM-Exit, e.g. when Linux patches code with a temporary INT3

   - Add KVM_X86_SNP_POLICY_BITS to advertise supported SNP policy bits
     to userspace, and extend KVM "support" to all policy bits that
     don't require any actual support from KVM

  x86 (Intel):

   - Use the root role from kvm_mmu_page to construct EPTPs instead of
     the current vCPU state, partly as worthwhile cleanup, but mostly to
     pave the way for tracking per-root TLB flushes, and elide EPT
     flushes on pCPU migration if the root is clean from a previous
     flush

   - Add a few missing nested consistency checks

   - Rip out support for doing "early" consistency checks via hardware
     as the functionality hasn't been used in years and is no longer
     useful in general; replace it with an off-by-default module param
     to WARN if hardware fails a check that KVM does not perform

   - Fix a currently-benign bug where KVM would drop the guest's
     SPEC_CTRL[63:32] on VM-Enter

   - Misc cleanups

   - Overhaul the TDX code to address systemic races where KVM (acting
     on behalf of userspace) could inadvertantly trigger lock contention
     in the TDX-Module; KVM was either working around these in weird,
     ugly ways, or was simply oblivious to them (though even Yan's
     devilish selftests could only break individual VMs, not the host
     kernel)

   - Fix a bug where KVM could corrupt a vCPU's cpu_list when freeing a
     TDX vCPU, if creating said vCPU failed partway through

   - Fix a few sparse warnings (bad annotation, 0 != NULL)

   - Use struct_size() to simplify copying TDX capabilities to userspace

   - Fix a bug where TDX would effectively corrupt user-return MSR
     values if the TDX Module rejects VP.ENTER and thus doesn't clobber
     host MSRs as expected

  Selftests:

   - Fix a math goof in mmu_stress_test when running on a single-CPU
     system/VM

   - Forcefully override ARCH from x86_64 to x86 to play nice with
     specifying ARCH=x86_64 on the command line

   - Extend a bunch of nested VMX to validate nested SVM as well

   - Add support for LA57 in the core VM_MODE_xxx macro, and add a test
     to verify KVM can save/restore nested VMX state when L1 is using
     5-level paging, but L2 is not

   - Clean up the guest paging code in anticipation of sharing the core
     logic for nested EPT and nested NPT

  guest_memfd:

   - Add NUMA mempolicy support for guest_memfd, and clean up a variety
     of rough edges in guest_memfd along the way

   - Define a CLASS to automatically handle get+put when grabbing a
     guest_memfd from a memslot to make it harder to leak references

   - Enhance KVM selftests to make it easer to develop and debug
     selftests like those added for guest_memfd NUMA support, e.g. where
     test and/or KVM bugs often result in hard-to-debug SIGBUS errors

   - Misc cleanups

  Generic:

   - Use the recently-added WQ_PERCPU when creating the per-CPU
     workqueue for irqfd cleanup

   - Fix a goof in the dirty ring documentation

   - Fix choice of target for directed yield across different calls to
     kvm_vcpu_on_spin(); the function was always starting from the first
     vCPU instead of continuing the round-robin search"

af62fe2494 KVM: Harden and prepare for modifying existing guest_memfd memslots
Unbind guest_memfd memslots if KVM commits a MOVE or FLAGS_ONLY memslot
change to harden against use-after-free, and to prepare for eventually
supporting dirty logging on guest_memfd memslots, at which point
FLAGS_ONLY changes will be expected/supported.

Add two separate WARNs, once to yell if a guest_memfd memslot is moved
(which KVM is never expected to allow/support), and again if the unbind()
is triggered, to help detect uAPI goofs prior to deliberately allowing
FLAGS_ONLY changes.

9935df5333 KVM: Disallow toggling KVM_MEM_GUEST_MEMFD on an existing memslot
Reject attempts to disable KVM_MEM_GUEST_MEMFD on a memslot that was
initially created with a guest_memfd binding, as KVM doesn't support
toggling KVM_MEM_GUEST_MEMFD on existing memslots.  KVM prevents enabling
KVM_MEM_GUEST_MEMFD, but doesn't prevent clearing the flag.

Failure to reject the new memslot results in a use-after-free due to KVM
not unbinding from the guest_memfd instance.  Unbinding on a FLAGS_ONLY
change is easy enough, and can/will be done as a hardening measure (in
anticipation of KVM supporting dirty logging on guest_memfd at some point),
but fixing the use-after-free would only address the immediate symptom.

2b09f480f0 A large overhaul of the restartable sequences and CID management:
The recent enablement of RSEQ in glibc resulted in regressions which are
   caused by the related overhead. It turned out that the decision to invoke
   the exit to user work was not really a decision. More or less each
   context switch caused that. There is a long list of small issues which
   sums up nicely and results in a 3-4% regression in I/O benchmarks.
 
   The other detail which caused issues due to extra work in context switch
   and task migration is the CID (memory context ID) management. It also
   requires to use a task work to consolidate the CID space, which is
   executed in the context of an arbitrary task and results in sporadic
   uncontrolled exit latencies.
 
   The rewrite addresses this by:
 
   - Removing deprecated and long unsupported functionality
 
   - Moving the related data into dedicated data structures which are
     optimized for fast path processing.
 
   - Caching values so actual decisions can be made
 
   - Replacing the current implementation with a optimized inlined variant.
 
   - Separating fast and slow path for architectures which use the generic
     entry code, so that only fault and error handling goes into the
     TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME handler.
 
   - Rewriting the CID management so that it becomes mostly invisible in the
     context switch path. That moves the work of switching modes into the
     fork/exit path, which is a reasonable tradeoff. That work is only
     required when a process creates more threads than the cpuset it is
     allowed to run on or when enough threads exit after that. An artificial
     thread pool benchmarks which triggers this did not degrade, it actually
     improved significantly.
 
     The main effect in migration heavy scenarios is that runqueue lock held
     time and therefore contention goes down significantly.

KVM guest_memfd changes for 6.19:

 - Add NUMA mempolicy support for guest_memfd, and clean up a variety of
   rough edges in guest_memfd along the way.

 - Define a CLASS to automatically handle get+put when grabbing a guest_memfd
   from a memslot to make it harder to leak references.

 - Enhance KVM selftests to make it easer to develop and debug selftests like
   those added for guest_memfd NUMA support, e.g. where test and/or KVM bugs
   often result in hard-to-debug SIGBUS errors.

 - Misc cleanups.

32bd348be3 KVM: Fix last_boosted_vcpu index assignment bug
In kvm_vcpu_on_spin(), the loop counter 'i' is incorrectly written to
last_boosted_vcpu instead of the actual vCPU index 'idx'. This causes
last_boosted_vcpu to store the loop iteration count rather than the
vCPU index, leading to incorrect round-robin behavior in subsequent
directed yield operations.

Fix this by using 'idx' instead of 'i' in the assignment.

50efc2340a KVM: Rename kvm_arch_vcpu_async_ioctl() to kvm_arch_vcpu_unlocked_ioctl()
Rename the "async" ioctl API to "unlocked" so that upcoming usage in x86's
TDX code doesn't result in a massive misnomer.  To avoid having to retry
SEAMCALLs, TDX needs to acquire kvm->lock *and* all vcpu->mutex locks, and
acquiring all of those locks after/inside the current vCPU's mutex is a
non-starter.  However, TDX also needs to acquire the vCPU's mutex and load
the vCPU, i.e. the handling is very much not async to the vCPU.

Implement kvm_arch_vcpu_async_ioctl() "natively" in x86 and arm64 instead
of relying on an #ifdef'd stub, and drop HAVE_KVM_VCPU_ASYNC_IOCTL in
anticipation of using the API on x86.  Once x86 uses the API, providing a
stub for one architecture and having all other architectures opt-in
requires more code than simply implementing the API in the lone holdout.

Eliminating the Kconfig will also reduce churn if the API is renamed in
the future (spoiler alert).

Deliberately don't acquire filemap invalid lock when the file is dying as
the lifecycle of f_mapping is outside the purview of KVM.  Dereferencing
the mapping is *probably* fine, but there's no need to invalidate anything
as memslot deletion is responsible for zapping SPTEs, and the only code
that can access the dying file is kvm_gmem_release(), whose core code is
mutually exclusive with unbinding.

Note, the mutual exclusivity is also what makes it safe to access the
bindings on a dying gmem instance.  Unbinding either runs with slots_lock
held, or after the last reference to the owning "struct kvm" is put, and
kvm_gmem_release() nullifies the slot pointer under slots_lock, and puts
its reference to the VM after that is done.

83409986f4 rseq, virt: Retrigger RSEQ after vcpu_run()
Hypervisors invoke resume_user_mode_work() before entering the guest, which
clears TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME. The @regs argument is NULL as there is no user
space context available to them, so the rseq notify handler skips
inspecting the critical section, but updates the CPU/MM CID values
unconditionally so that the eventual pending rseq event is not lost on the
way to user space.

This is a pointless exercise as the task might be rescheduled before
actually returning to user space and it creates unnecessary work in the
vcpu_run() loops.

It's way more efficient to ignore that invocation based on @regs == NULL
and let the hypervisors re-raise TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME after returning from the
vcpu_run() loop before returning from the ioctl().

This ensures that a pending RSEQ update is not lost and the IDs are updated
before returning to user space.

Once the RSEQ handling is decoupled from TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME, this turns into
a NOOP.

0bb4d9c39b KVM: guest_memfd: Define a CLASS to get+put guest_memfd file from a memslot
Add a CLASS to handle getting and putting a guest_memfd file given a
memslot to reduce the amount of related boilerplate, and more importantly
to minimize the chances of forgetting to put the file (thankfully the bug
that prompted this didn't escape initial testing).

Define a CLASS instead of using __free(fput) as _free() comes with subtle
caveats related to FILO ordering (objects are freed in the order in which
they are declared), and the recommended solution/workaround (declare file
pointers exactly when they are initialized) is visually jarring relative
to KVM's (and the kernel's) overall strict adherence to not mixing
declarations and code.  E.g. the use in kvm_gmem_populate() would be:

	slot = gfn_to_memslot(kvm, start_gfn);
	if (!kvm_slot_has_gmem(slot))
		return -EINVAL;

	struct file *file __free(fput) = kvm_gmem_get_file(slot;
	if (!file)
		return -EFAULT;

	filemap_invalidate_lock(file->f_mapping);

Note, using CLASS() still declares variables in the middle of code, but
the syntactic sugar obfuscates the declaration, i.e. hides the anomaly to
a large extent.

No functional change intended.

ed1ffa810b KVM: guest_memfd: Enforce NUMA mempolicy using shared policy
Previously, guest-memfd allocations followed local NUMA node id in absence
of process mempolicy, resulting in arbitrary memory allocation.
Moreover, mbind() couldn't be used  by the VMM as guest memory wasn't
mapped into userspace when allocation occurred.

Enable NUMA policy support by implementing vm_ops for guest-memfd mmap
operation.  This allows the VMM to use mmap()+mbind() to set the desired
NUMA policy for a range of memory, and provides fine-grained control over
guest memory allocation across NUMA nodes.

Note, using mmap()+mbind() works even for PRIVATE memory, as mbind()
doesn't require the memory to be faulted in.  However, get_mempolicy()
and other paths that require the userspace page tables to be populated
may return incorrect information for PRIVATE memory (though under the hood,
KVM+guest_memfd will still behave correctly).

Store the policy in the inode structure, gmem_inode, as a shared memory
policy, so that the policy is a property of the physical memory itself,
i.e. not bound to the VMA.  In guest_memfd, KVM is the primary MMU and any
VMAs are secondary, i.e. using mbind() on a VMA to set policy is a means
to an end, e.g. to avoid having to add a file-based equivalent to mbind().

Similarly, retrieve the policy via mpol_shared_policy_lookup(), not
get_vma_policy(), even when allocating to fault in memory for userspace
mappings, so that the policy stored in gmem_inode is always the source of
true.

Apply policy changes only to future allocations, i.e. do not migrate
existing memory in the guest_memfd instance.  This matches mbind(2)'s
default behavior, which affects only new allocations unless overridden
with MPOL_MF_MOVE/MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL flags (which are not supported by
guest_memfd as guest_memfd memory is unmovable).

a63ca4236e KVM: guest_memfd: Use guest mem inodes instead of anonymous inodes
guest_memfd's inode represents memory the guest_memfd is
providing. guest_memfd's file represents a struct kvm's view of that
memory.

Using a custom inode allows customization of the inode teardown
process via callbacks. For example, ->evict_inode() allows
customization of the truncation process on file close, and
->destroy_inode() and ->free_inode() allow customization of the inode
freeing process.

Customizing the truncation process allows flexibility in management of
guest_memfd memory and customization of the inode freeing process
allows proper cleanup of memory metadata stored on the inode.

Memory metadata is more appropriately stored on the inode (as opposed
to the file), since the metadata is for the memory and is not unique
to a specific binding and struct kvm.

497b1dfbca KVM: guest_memfd: Rename "struct kvm_gmem" to "struct gmem_file"
Rename the "kvm_gmem" structure to "gmem_file" in anticipation of using
dedicated guest_memfd inodes instead of anonyomous inodes, at which point
the "kvm_gmem" nomenclature becomes quite misleading.  In guest_memfd,
inodes are effectively the raw underlying physical storage, and will be
used to track properties of the physical memory, while each gmem file is
effectively a single VM's view of that storage, and is used to track assets
specific to its associated VM, e.g. memslots=>gmem bindings.

Using "kvm_gmem" suggests that the per-VM/per-file structures are _the_
guest_memfd instance, which almost the exact opposite of reality.

Opportunistically rename local variables from "gmem" to "f", again to
avoid confusion once guest_memfd specific inodes come along.

44c6cb9fe9 KVM: guest_memfd: Allow mmap() on guest_memfd for x86 VMs with private memory
Allow mmap() on guest_memfd instances for x86 VMs with private memory as
the need to track private vs. shared state in the guest_memfd instance is
only pertinent to INIT_SHARED.  Doing mmap() on private memory isn't
terrible useful (yet!), but it's now possible, and will be desirable when
guest_memfd gains support for other VMA-based syscalls, e.g. mbind() to
set NUMA policy.

Lift the restriction now, before MMAP support is officially released, so
that KVM doesn't need to add another capability to enumerate support for
mmap() on private memory.

9aef71c892 KVM: Explicitly mark KVM_GUEST_MEMFD as depending on KVM_GENERIC_MMU_NOTIFIER
Add KVM_GENERIC_MMU_NOTIFIER as a dependency for selecting KVM_GUEST_MEMFD,
as guest_memfd relies on kvm_mmu_invalidate_{begin,end}(), which are
defined if and only if the generic mmu_notifier implementation is enabled.

The missing dependency is currently benign as s390 is the only KVM arch
that doesn't utilize the generic mmu_notifier infrastructure, and s390
doesn't currently support guest_memfd.

5d3341d684 KVM: guest_memfd: Invalidate SHARED GPAs if gmem supports INIT_SHARED
When invalidating gmem ranges, e.g. in response to PUNCH_HOLE, process all
possible range types (PRIVATE vs. SHARED) for the gmem instance.  Since
since guest_memfd doesn't yet support in-place conversions, simply pivot
on INIT_SHARED as a gmem instance can currently only have private or shared
memory, not both.

Failure to mark shared GPAs for invalidation is benign in the current code
base, as only x86's TDX consumes KVM_FILTER_{PRIVATE,SHARED}, and TDX
doesn't yet support INIT_SHARED with guest_memfd.  However, invalidating
only private GPAs is conceptually wrong and a lurking bug, e.g. could
result in missed invalidations if ARM starts filtering invalidations based
on attributes.

fe2bf6234e KVM: guest_memfd: Add INIT_SHARED flag, reject user page faults if not set
Add a guest_memfd flag to allow userspace to state that the underlying
memory should be configured to be initialized as shared, and reject user
page faults if the guest_memfd instance's memory isn't shared.  Because
KVM doesn't yet support in-place private<=>shared conversions, all
guest_memfd memory effectively follows the initial state.

Alternatively, KVM could deduce the initial state based on MMAP, which for
all intents and purposes is what KVM currently does.  However, implicitly
deriving the default state based on MMAP will result in a messy ABI when
support for in-place conversions is added.

For x86 CoCo VMs, which don't yet support MMAP, memory is currently private
by default (otherwise the memory would be unusable).  If MMAP implies
memory is shared by default, then the default state for CoCo VMs will vary
based on MMAP, and from userspace's perspective, will change when in-place
conversion support is added.  I.e. to maintain guest<=>host ABI, userspace
would need to immediately convert all memory from shared=>private, which
is both ugly and inefficient.  The inefficiency could be avoided by adding
a flag to state that memory is _private_ by default, irrespective of MMAP,
but that would lead to an equally messy and hard to document ABI.

Bite the bullet and immediately add a flag to control the default state so
that the effective behavior is explicit and straightforward.

d2042d8f96 KVM: Rework KVM_CAP_GUEST_MEMFD_MMAP into KVM_CAP_GUEST_MEMFD_FLAGS
Rework the not-yet-released KVM_CAP_GUEST_MEMFD_MMAP into a more generic
KVM_CAP_GUEST_MEMFD_FLAGS capability so that adding new flags doesn't
require a new capability, and so that developers aren't tempted to bundle
multiple flags into a single capability.

Note, kvm_vm_ioctl_check_extension_generic() can only return a 32-bit
value, but that limitation can be easily circumvented by adding e.g.
KVM_CAP_GUEST_MEMFD_FLAGS2 in the unlikely event guest_memfd supports more
than 32 flags.

20c4892058 KVM: Export KVM-internal symbols for sub-modules only
Rework the vast majority of KVM's exports to expose symbols only to KVM
submodules, i.e. to x86's kvm-{amd,intel}.ko and PPC's kvm-{pr,hv}.ko.
With few exceptions, KVM's exported APIs are intended (and safe) for KVM-
internal usage only.

Keep kvm_get_kvm(), kvm_get_kvm_safe(), and kvm_put_kvm() as normal
exports, as they are needed by VFIO, and are generally safe for external
usage (though ideally even the get/put APIs would be KVM-internal, and
VFIO would pin a VM by grabbing a reference to its associated file).

Implement a framework in kvm_types.h in anticipation of providing a macro
to restrict KVM-specific kernel exports, i.e. to provide symbol exports
for KVM if and only if KVM is built as one or more modules.

KVM x86 MMU changes for 6.18

 - Recover possible NX huge pages within the TDP MMU under read lock to
   reduce guest jitter when restoring NX huge pages.

 - Return -EAGAIN during prefault if userspace concurrently deletes/moves the
   relevant memslot to fix an issue where prefaulting could deadlock with the
   memslot update.

 - Don't retry in TDX's anti-zero-step mitigation if the target memslot is
   invalid, i.e. is being deleted or moved, to fix a deadlock scenario similar
   to the aforementioned prefaulting case.

5b66e335ea KVM: SEV: Reject non-positive effective lengths during LAUNCH_UPDATE
Check for an invalid length during LAUNCH_UPDATE at the start of
snp_launch_update() instead of subtly relying on kvm_gmem_populate() to
detect the bad state.  Code that directly handles userspace input
absolutely should sanitize those inputs; failure to do so is asking for
bugs where KVM consumes an invalid "npages".

Keep the check in gmem, but wrap it in a WARN to flag any bad usage by
the caller.

Note, this is technically an ABI change as KVM would previously allow a
length of '0'.  But allowing a length of '0' is nonsensical and creates
pointless conundrums in KVM.  E.g. an empty range is arguably neither
private nor shared, but LAUNCH_UPDATE will fail if the starting gpa can't
be made private.  In practice, no known or well-behaved VMM passes a
length of '0'.

Note #2, the PAGE_ALIGNED(params.len) check ensures that lengths between
1 and 4095 (inclusive) are also rejected, i.e. that KVM won't end up with
npages=0 when doing "npages = params.len / PAGE_SIZE".

2bc2694fe2 KVM: TDX: Do not retry locally when the retry is caused by invalid memslot
Avoid local retries within the TDX EPT violation handler if a retry is
triggered by faulting in an invalid memslot, indicating that the memslot
is undergoing a removal process.  Faulting in a GPA from an invalid
memslot will never succeed, and holding SRCU prevents memslot deletion
from succeeding, i.e. retrying when the memslot is being actively deleted
will lead to (breakable) deadlock.

Opportunistically export kvm_vcpu_gfn_to_memslot() to allow for a per-vCPU
lookup (which, strictly speaking, is unnecessary since TDX doesn't support
SMM, but aligns the TDX code with the MMU code).

3d3a04fad2 KVM: Allow and advertise support for host mmap() on guest_memfd files
Now that all the x86 and arm64 plumbing for mmap() on guest_memfd is in
place, allow userspace to set GUEST_MEMFD_FLAG_MMAP and advertise support
via a new capability, KVM_CAP_GUEST_MEMFD_MMAP.

The availability of this capability is determined per architecture, and
its enablement for a specific guest_memfd instance is controlled by the
GUEST_MEMFD_FLAG_MMAP flag at creation time.

Update the KVM API documentation to detail the KVM_CAP_GUEST_MEMFD_MMAP
capability, the associated GUEST_MEMFD_FLAG_MMAP, and provide essential
information regarding support for mmap in guest_memfd.

576d035e2a KVM: guest_memfd: Track guest_memfd mmap support in memslot
Add a new internal flag, KVM_MEMSLOT_GMEM_ONLY, to the top half of
memslot->flags (which makes it strictly for KVM's internal use). This
flag tracks when a guest_memfd-backed memory slot supports host
userspace mmap operations, which implies that all memory, not just
private memory for CoCo VMs, is consumed through guest_memfd: "gmem
only".

This optimization avoids repeatedly checking the underlying guest_memfd
file for mmap support, which would otherwise require taking and
releasing a reference on the file for each check. By caching this
information directly in the memslot, we reduce overhead and simplify the
logic involved in handling guest_memfd-backed pages for host mappings.

a12578e147 KVM: guest_memfd: Add plumbing to host to map guest_memfd pages
Introduce the core infrastructure to enable host userspace to mmap()
guest_memfd-backed memory. This is needed for several evolving KVM use
cases:

* Non-CoCo VM backing: Allows VMMs like Firecracker to run guests
  entirely backed by guest_memfd, even for non-CoCo VMs [1]. This
  provides a unified memory management model and simplifies guest memory
  handling.

* Direct map removal for enhanced security: This is an important step
  for direct map removal of guest memory [2]. By allowing host userspace
  to fault in guest_memfd pages directly, we can avoid maintaining host
  kernel direct maps of guest memory. This provides additional hardening
  against Spectre-like transient execution attacks by removing a
  potential attack surface within the kernel.

* Future guest_memfd features: This also lays the groundwork for future
  enhancements to guest_memfd, such as supporting huge pages and
  enabling in-place sharing of guest memory with the host for CoCo
  platforms that permit it [3].

Enable the basic mmap and fault handling logic within guest_memfd, but
hold off on allow userspace to actually do mmap() until the architecture
support is also in place.

d1e54dd08f KVM: x86: Enable KVM_GUEST_MEMFD for all 64-bit builds
Enable KVM_GUEST_MEMFD for all KVM x86 64-bit builds, i.e. for "default"
VM types when running on 64-bit KVM.  This will allow using guest_memfd
to back non-private memory for all VM shapes, by supporting mmap() on
guest_memfd.

Opportunistically clean up various conditionals that become tautologies
once x86 selects KVM_GUEST_MEMFD more broadly.  Specifically, because
SW protected VMs, SEV, and TDX are all 64-bit only, private memory no
longer needs to take explicit dependencies on KVM_GUEST_MEMFD, because
it is effectively a prerequisite.

923310be23 KVM: Rename kvm_slot_can_be_private() to kvm_slot_has_gmem()
Rename kvm_slot_can_be_private() to kvm_slot_has_gmem() to improve
clarity and accurately reflect its purpose.

The function kvm_slot_can_be_private() was previously used to check if a
given kvm_memory_slot is backed by guest_memfd. However, its name
implied that the memory in such a slot was exclusively "private".

As guest_memfd support expands to include non-private memory (e.g.,
shared host mappings), it's important to remove this association. The
new name, kvm_slot_has_gmem(), states that the slot is backed by
guest_memfd without making assumptions about the memory's privacy
attributes.

36cf63bb5d KVM: Rename CONFIG_KVM_GENERIC_PRIVATE_MEM to CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_ARCH_GMEM_POPULATE
The original name was vague regarding its functionality. This Kconfig
option specifically enables and gates the kvm_gmem_populate() function,
which is responsible for populating a GPA range with guest data.

The new name, HAVE_KVM_ARCH_GMEM_POPULATE, describes the purpose of the
option: to enable arch-specific guest_memfd population mechanisms. It
also follows the same pattern as the other HAVE_KVM_ARCH_* configuration
options.

This improves clarity for developers and ensures the name accurately
reflects the functionality it controls, especially as guest_memfd
support expands beyond purely "private" memory scenarios.

Temporarily keep KVM_GENERIC_PRIVATE_MEM as an x86-only config so as to
minimize churn, and to hopefully make it easier to see what features
require HAVE_KVM_ARCH_GMEM_POPULATE.  On that note, omit GMEM_POPULATE
for KVM_X86_SW_PROTECTED_VM, as regular ol' memset() suffices for
software-protected VMs.

As for KVM_GENERIC_PRIVATE_MEM, a future change will select KVM_GUEST_MEMFD
for all 64-bit KVM builds, at which point the intermediate config will
become obsolete and can/will be dropped.

Subsequent patches in this series will add guest_memfd support for

Renaming the Kconfig option to CONFIG_KVM_GUEST_MEMFD more accurately
reflects its broader scope as the main Kconfig option for all

KVM generic changes for 6.17

 - Add a tracepoint for KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES to help debug issues related
   to private <=> shared memory conversions.

 - Drop guest_memfd's .getattr() implementation as the VFS layer will call
   generic_fillattr() if inode_operations.getattr is NULL.

f02b1bcc73 Merge tag 'kvm-x86-irqs-6.17' of https://github.com/kvm-x86/linux into HEAD
KVM IRQ changes for 6.17

 - Rework irqbypass to track/match producers and consumers via an xarray
   instead of a linked list.  Using a linked list leads to O(n^2) insertion
   times, which is hugely problematic for use cases that create large numbers
   of VMs.  Such use cases typically don't actually use irqbypass, but
   eliminating the pointless registration is a future problem to solve as it
   likely requires new uAPI.

 - Track irqbypass's "token" as "struct eventfd_ctx *" instead of a "void *",
   to avoid making a simple concept unnecessarily difficult to understand.

 - Add CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC for x86 to allow disabling support for I/O APIC, PIC,
   and PIT emulation at compile time.

 - Drop x86's irq_comm.c, and move a pile of IRQ related code into irq.c.

 - Fix a variety of flaws and bugs in the AVIC device posted IRQ code.

 - Inhibited AVIC if a vCPU's ID is too big (relative to what hardware
   supports) instead of rejecting vCPU creation.

 - Extend enable_ipiv module param support to SVM, by simply leaving IsRunning
   clear in the vCPU's physical ID table entry.

 - Disable IPI virtualization, via enable_ipiv, if the CPU is affected by
   erratum #1235, to allow (safely) enabling AVIC on such CPUs.

 - Dedup x86's device posted IRQ code, as the vast majority of functionality
   can be shared verbatime between SVM and VMX.

 - Harden the device posted IRQ code against bugs and runtime errors.

 - Use vcpu_idx, not vcpu_id, for GA log tag/metadata, to make lookups O(1)
   instead of O(n).

 - Generate GA Log interrupts if and only if the target vCPU is blocking, i.e.
   only if KVM needs a notification in order to wake the vCPU.

 - Decouple device posted IRQs from VFIO device assignment, as binding a VM to
   a VFIO group is not a requirement for enabling device posted IRQs.

 - Clean up and document/comment the irqfd assignment code.

 - Disallow binding multiple irqfds to an eventfd with a priority waiter, i.e.
   ensure an eventfd is bound to at most one irqfd through the entire host,
   and add a selftest to verify eventfd:irqfd bindings are globally unique.

87d4fbf4a3 KVM: guest_memfd: Remove redundant kvm_gmem_getattr implementation
Remove the redundant kvm_gmem_getattr() implementation that simply calls
generic_fillattr() without any special handling. The VFS layer
(vfs_getattr_nosec()) will call generic_fillattr() by default when no
custom getattr operation is provided in the inode_operations structure.

This is a cleanup with no functional change.

bbc13ae593 VFIO: KVM: x86: Drop kvm_arch_{start,end}_assignment()
Drop kvm_arch_{start,end}_assignment() and all associated code now that
KVM x86 no longer consumes assigned_device_count.  Tracking whether or not
a VFIO-assigned device is formally associated with a VM is fundamentally
flawed, as such an association is optional for general usage, i.e. is prone
to false negatives.  E.g. prior to commit 2edd9cb79f ("kvm: detect
assigned device via irqbypass manager"), device passthrough via VFIO would
fail to enable IRQ bypass if userspace omitted the formal VFIO<=>KVM
binding.

And device drivers that *need* the VFIO<=>KVM connection, e.g. KVM-GT,
shouldn't be relying on generic x86 tracking infrastructure.

b599d44a71 KVM: Drop sanity check that per-VM list of irqfds is unique
Now that the eventfd's waitqueue ensures it has at most one priority
waiter, i.e. prevents KVM from binding multiple irqfds to one eventfd,

2cdd64cbf9 KVM: Disallow binding multiple irqfds to an eventfd with a priority waiter
Disallow binding an irqfd to an eventfd that already has a priority waiter,
i.e. to an eventfd that already has an attached irqfd.  KVM always
operates in exclusive mode for EPOLL_IN (unconditionally returns '1'),
i.e. only the first waiter will be notified.

KVM already disallows binding multiple irqfds to an eventfd in a single
VM, but doesn't guard against multiple VMs binding to an eventfd.  Adding
the extra protection reduces the pain of a userspace VMM bug, e.g. if
userspace fails to de-assign before re-assigning when transferring state
for intra-host migration, then the migration will explicitly fail as
opposed to dropping IRQs on the destination VM.

Temporarily keep KVM's manual check on irqfds.items, but add a WARN, e.g.
to allow sanity checking the waitqueue enforcement.

867347bb21 sched/wait: Drop WQ_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE from add_wait_queue_priority()
Drop the setting of WQ_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE from add_wait_queue_priority() and
instead have callers manually add the flag prior to adding their structure
to the queue.  Blindly setting WQ_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE is flawed, as the nature
of exclusive, priority waiters means that only the first waiter added will
ever receive notifications.

Pushing the flawed behavior to callers will allow fixing the problem one
hypervisor at a time (KVM added the flawed API, and then KVM's code was
copy+pasted nearly verbatim by Xen and Hyper-V), and will also allow for
adding an API that provides true exclusivity, i.e. that guarantees at most
one priority waiter is in the queue.

Opportunistically add a comment in Hyper-V to call out the mess.  Xen
privcmd's irqfd_wakefup() doesn't actually operate in exclusive mode, i.e.
can be "fixed" simply by dropping WQ_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE.  And KVM is primed to
switch to the aforementioned fully exclusive API, i.e. won't be carrying
the flawed code for long.

No functional change intended.

86e00cd162 KVM: Add irqfd to eventfd's waitqueue while holding irqfds.lock
Add an irqfd to its target eventfd's waitqueue while holding irqfds.lock,
which is mildly terrifying but functionally safe.  irqfds.lock is taken
inside the waitqueue's lock, but if and only if the eventfd is being
released, i.e. that path is mutually exclusive with registration as KVM
holds a reference to the eventfd (and obviously must do so to avoid UAF).

This will allow using the eventfd's waitqueue to enforce KVM's requirement
that eventfd is assigned to at most one irqfd, without introducing races.
