d0ee290071
- Restore CONFIG_PKVM_DISABLE_STAGE2_ON_PANIC to its former glory by
making sure the config symbol is correctly spelled out in the code
- Don't reset the AArch32 view of the PMU counters to zero when the
guest is writing to them
- Fix an assorted collection of memory leaks in the newly added tracing
code
- Fix the capping of ZCR_EL2 which could be used in an unsanitised way
by an L2 guest
x86:
- Include the kernel's linux/mman.h in KVM selftests to ensure MADV_COLLAPSE
is defined, as older libc versions may not provide it.
- Include execinfo.h if and only if KVM selftests are building against glibc,
and provide a test_dump_stack() for non-glibc builds.
- Silence an annoying RCU splat on (even non-KVM-related) panics. The splat
is technically legit, but in practice not an issue. To have a race, you
would need to unload the KVM modules at exactly the time a panic happens;
and speaking of incredibly rare races, taking the locks risks introducing
a deadlock if the module unload code took the lock on a CPU that has been
halted. Which seems possibly more likely than the RCU grace period issue,
so just shut it up. This code used to be in KVM but is now outside it;
but the x86 maintainers haven't picked it up, so here we are.
- Rate-limit global clock updates once again (but without delayed work), as
KVM was subtly relying on the old rate-limiting for NPT correction to guard
against "update storms" when running without a master clock on systems with
overcommitted CPUs.
- Fix a brown paper bag goof where KVM checked if ERAPS is "dirty" instead of
marking it dirty when emulating INVPCID.
- Flush the TLB when transitioning from xAVIC => x2AVIC to ensure the CPU TLB
doesn't contain AVIC-tagged entries for the APIC base GPA.
- The top 10 commits fix buffer overflow (and potential TOC/TOU) flaws in the
page state change protocol for encrypted VMs. AI models find it quite
easily given it was reported three times, but aren't as good at writing
a comprehensive fix. There's more to clean up in the area, which will
come in 7.2.
