When filtering by guest, kvm_stat displays garbage when the guest is destroyed - see sample output below. We add code to remove the invalid paths from the providers, so at least no more garbage is displayed.

Python3 returns a float for a regular division - switch to a division operator that returns an integer. Furthermore, filters return a generator object instead of the actual list - wrap result in yet another list, which makes it still work in both, Python2 and 3.

Allowing x86_emulate_instruction() to be called directly has led to subtle bugs being introduced, e.g. not setting EMULTYPE_NO_REEXECUTE in the emulation type. While most of the blame lies on re-execute being opt-out, exporting x86_emulate_instruction() also exposes its cr2 parameter, which may have contributed to commit d391f120 ("x86/kvm/vmx: do not use vm-exit instruction length for fast MMIO when running nested") using x86_emulate_instruction() instead of emulate_instruction() because "hey, I have a cr2!", which in turn introduced its EMULTYPE_NO_REEXECUTE bug.

Commit a6f177ef ("KVM: Reenter guest after emulation failure if due to access to non-mmio address") added reexecute_instruction() to handle the scenario where two (or more) vCPUS race to write a shadowed page, i.e. reexecute_instruction() is intended to return true if and only if the instruction being emulated was accessing a shadowed page. As L0 is only explicitly shadowing L1 tables, an emulation failure of a nested VM instruction cannot be due to a race to write a shadowed page and so should never be re-executed. This fixes an issue where an "MMIO" emulation failure[1] in L2 is all but guaranteed to result in an infinite loop when TDP is enabled. Because "cr2" is actually an L2 GPA when TDP is enabled, calling kvm_mmu_gva_to_gpa_write() to translate cr2 in the non-direct mapped case (L2 is never direct mapped) will almost always yield UNMAPPED_GVA and cause reexecute_instruction() to immediately return true. The !mmio_info_in_cache() check in kvm_mmu_page_fault() doesn't catch this case because mmio_info_in_cache() returns false for a nested MMU (the MMIO caching currently handles L1 only, e.g. to cache nested guests' GPAs we'd have to manually flush the cache when switching between VMs and when L1 updated its page tables controlling the nested guest). Way back when, commit 68be0803 ("KVM: x86: never re-execute instruction with enabled tdp") changed reexecute_instruction() to always return false when using TDP under the assumption that KVM would only get into the emulator for MMIO. Commit 95b3cf69 ("KVM: x86: let reexecute_instruction work for tdp") effectively reverted that behavior in order to handle the scenario where emulation failed due to an access from L1 to the shadow page tables for L2, but it didn't account for the case where emulation failed in L2 with TDP enabled. All of the above logic also applies to retry_instruction(), added by commit 1cb3f3ae ("KVM: x86: retry non-page-table writing instructions"). An indefinite loop in retry_instruction() should be impossible as it protects against retrying the same instruction over and over, but it's still correct to not retry an L2 instruction in the first place. Fix the immediate issue by adding a check for a nested guest when determining whether or not to allow retry in kvm_mmu_page_fault(). In addition to fixing the immediate bug, add WARN_ON_ONCE in the retry functions since they are not designed to handle nested cases, i.e. they need to be modified even if there is some scenario in the future where we want to allow retrying a nested guest. [1] This issue was encountered after commit 3a2936de ("kvm: mmu: Don't expose private memslots to L2") changed the page fault path to return KVM_PFN_NOSLOT when translating an L2 access to a prive memslot. Returning KVM_PFN_NOSLOT is semantically correct when we want to hide a memslot from L2, i.e. there effectively is no defined memory region for L2, but it has the unfortunate side effect of making KVM think the GFN is a MMIO page, thus triggering emulation. The failure occurred with in-development code that deliberately exposed a private memslot to L2, which L2 accessed with an instruction that is not emulated by KVM.

Effectively force kvm_mmu_page_fault() to opt-in to allowing retry to make it more obvious when and why it allows emulation to be retried. Previously this approach was less convenient due to retry and re-execute behavior being controlled by separate flags that were also inverted in their implementations (opt-in versus opt-out).

retry_instruction() and reexecute_instruction() are a package deal, i.e. there is no scenario where one is allowed and the other is not. Merge their controlling emulation type flags to enforce this in code. Name the combined flag EMULTYPE_ALLOW_RETRY to make it abundantly clear that we are allowing re{try,execute} to occur, as opposed to explicitly requesting retry of a previously failed instruction.

Re-execution after an emulation decode failure is only intended to handle a case where two or vCPUs race to write a shadowed page, i.e. we should never re-execute an instruction as part of RSM emulation. Add a new helper, kvm_emulate_instruction_from_buffer(), to support emulating from a pre-defined buffer. This eliminates the last direct call to x86_emulate_instruction() outside of kvm_mmu_page_fault(), which means x86_emulate_instruction() can be unexported in a future patch.

Re-execution after an emulation decode failure is only intended to handle a case where two or vCPUs race to write a shadowed page, i.e. we should never re-execute an instruction as part of MMIO emulation. As handle_ept_misconfig() is only used for MMIO emulation, it should pass EMULTYPE_NO_REEXECUTE when using the emulator to skip an instr in the fast-MMIO case where VM_EXIT_INSTRUCTION_LEN is invalid. And because the cr2 value passed to x86_emulate_instruction() is only destined for use when retrying or reexecuting, we can simply call emulate_instruction().

Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.19_dax-memory-failure' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm Pull libnvdimm memory-failure update from Dave Jiang: "As it stands, memory_failure() gets thoroughly confused by dev_pagemap backed mappings. The recovery code has specific enabling for several possible page states and needs new enabling to handle poison in dax mappings. In order to support reliable reverse mapping of user space addresses: 1/ Add new locking in the memory_failure() rmap path to prevent races that would typically be handled by the page lock. 2/ Since dev_pagemap pages are hidden from the page allocator and the "compound page" accounting machinery, add a mechanism to determine the size of the mapping that encompasses a given poisoned pfn. 3/ Given pmem errors can be repaired, change the speculatively accessed poison protection, mce_unmap_kpfn(), to be reversible and otherwise allow ongoing access from the kernel. A side effect of this enabling is that MADV_HWPOISON becomes usable for dax mappings, however the primary motivation is to allow the system to survive userspace consumption of hardware-poison via dax.

This is not normally noticeable, but repeated forks are unnecessarily expensive because they repeatedly dirty the parent page tables during the page table copy operation. It's trivial to just avoid write protecting the page table entry if it was already not writable. This patch was inspired by https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=200447 which points to an ancient "waste time re-doing fork" issue in the presence of lots of signals. That bug was fixed by Eric Biederman's signal handling series culminating in commit c3ad2c3b ("signal: Don't restart fork when signals come in"), but the unnecessary work for repeated forks is still work just fixing, particularly since the fix is trivial.

Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman: - An implementation for the newly added hv_ops->flush() for the OPAL hvc console driver backends, I forgot to apply this after merging the hvc driver changes before the merge window. - Enable all PCI bridges at boot on powernv, to avoid races when multiple children of a bridge try to enable it simultaneously. This is a workaround until the PCI core can be enhanced to fix the races. - A fix to query PowerVM for the correct system topology at boot before initialising sched domains, seen in some configurations to cause broken scheduling etc. - A fix for pte_access_permitted() on "nohash" platforms. - Two commits to fix SIGBUS when using remap_pfn_range() seen on Power9 due to a workaround when using the nest MMU (GPUs, accelerators). - Another fix to the VFIO code used by KVM, the previous fix had some bugs which caused guests to not start in some configurations. - A handful of other minor fixes. Thanks to: Aneesh Kumar K.V, Benjamin Herrenschmidt, Christophe Leroy, Hari Bathini, Luke Dashjr, Mahesh Salgaonkar, Nicholas Piggin, Paul Mackerras, Srikar Dronamraju. * tag 'powerpc-4.19-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux: powerpc/mce: Fix SLB rebolting during MCE recovery path.
