SCHEDSTATS requires DEBUG_KERNEL (and PROC_FS) and therefore isn't a good choice for enabling the scheduling statistics required for stolen time. Instead match the x86 configuration and select TASK_DELAY_ACCT and TASKSTATS. This adds the dependencies of NET && MULTIUSER for arm64 KVM.

Enable paravirtualization features when running under a hypervisor supporting the PV_TIME_ST hypercall. For each (v)CPU, we ask the hypervisor for the location of a shared page which the hypervisor will use to report stolen time to us. We set pv_time_ops to the stolen time function which simply reads the stolen value from the shared page for a VCPU. We guarantee single-copy atomicity using READ_ONCE which means we can also read the stolen time for another VCPU than the currently running one while it is potentially being updated by the hypervisor.

Rather than directly choosing which function to use based on psci_ops.conduit, use the new arm_smccc_1_1 wrapper instead. In some cases we still need to do some operations based on the conduit, but the code duplication is removed. No functional change.

SMCCC 1.1 calls may use either HVC or SMC depending on the PSCI conduit. Rather than coding this in every call site, provide a macro which uses the correct instruction. The macro also handles the case where no conduit is configured/available returning a not supported error in res, along with returning the conduit used for the call. This allow us to remove some duplicated code and will be useful later when adding paravirtualized time hypervisor calls.

Allow user space to inform the KVM host where in the physical memory map the paravirtualized time structures should be located. User space can set an attribute on the VCPU providing the IPA base address of the stolen time structure for that VCPU. This must be repeated for every VCPU in the VM. The address is given in terms of the physical address visible to the guest and must be 64 byte aligned. The guest will discover the address via a hypercall.

Implement the service call for configuring a shared structure between a VCPU and the hypervisor in which the hypervisor can write the time stolen from the VCPU's execution time by other tasks on the host. User space allocates memory which is placed at an IPA also chosen by user space. The hypervisor then updates the shared structure using kvm_put_guest() to ensure single copy atomicity of the 64-bit value reporting the stolen time in nanoseconds. Whenever stolen time is enabled by the guest, the stolen time counter is reset. The stolen time itself is retrieved from the sched_info structure maintained by the Linux scheduler code. We enable SCHEDSTATS when selecting KVM Kconfig to ensure this value is meaningful. Signed-off-by: Steven Price <steven.price@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Marc Zyngier <maz@kernel.org>

We currently intertwine the KVM PSCI implementation with the general dispatch of hypercall handling, which makes perfect sense because PSCI is the only category of hypercalls we support. However, as we are about to support additional hypercalls, factor out this functionality into a separate hypercall handler file.

Introduce a paravirtualization interface for KVM/arm64 based on the "Arm Paravirtualized Time for Arm-Base Systems" specification DEN 0057A. This only adds the details about "Stolen Time" as the details of "Live Physical Time" have not been fully agreed. User space can specify a reserved area of memory for the guest and inform KVM to populate the memory with information on time that the host kernel has stolen from the guest. A hypercall interface is provided for the guest to interrogate the hypervisor's support for this interface and the location of the shared memory structures.

In some scenarios, such as buggy guest or incorrect configuration of the VMM and firmware description data, userspace will detect a memory access to a portion of the IPA, which is not mapped to any MMIO region. For this purpose, the appropriate action is to inject an external abort to the guest. The kernel already has functionality to inject an external abort, but we need to wire up a signal from user space that lets user space tell the kernel to do this. It turns out, we already have the set event functionality which we can perfectly reuse for this.

For a long time, if a guest accessed memory outside of a memslot using any of the load/store instructions in the architecture which doesn't supply decoding information in the ESR_EL2 (the ISV bit is not set), the kernel would print the following message and terminate the VM as a result of returning -ENOSYS to userspace: load/store instruction decoding not implemented The reason behind this message is that KVM assumes that all accesses outside a memslot is an MMIO access which should be handled by userspace, and we originally expected to eventually implement some sort of decoding of load/store instructions where the ISV bit was not set. However, it turns out that many of the instructions which don't provide decoding information on abort are not safe to use for MMIO accesses, and the remaining few that would potentially make sense to use on MMIO accesses, such as those with register writeback, are not used in practice. It also turns out that fetching an instruction from guest memory can be a pretty horrible affair, involving stopping all CPUs on SMP systems, handling multiple corner cases of address translation in software, and more. It doesn't appear likely that we'll ever implement this in the kernel. What is much more common is that a user has misconfigured his/her guest and is actually not accessing an MMIO region, but just hitting some random hole in the IPA space. In this scenario, the error message above is almost misleading and has led to a great deal of confusion over the years. It is, nevertheless, ABI to userspace, and we therefore need to introduce a new capability that userspace explicitly enables to change behavior. This patch introduces KVM_CAP_ARM_NISV_TO_USER (NISV meaning Non-ISV) which does exactly that, and introduces a new exit reason to report the event to userspace. User space can then emulate an exception to the guest, restart the guest, suspend the guest, or take any other appropriate action as per the policy of the running system.

There is no loop. So, it must be looping in the caller tracing_read_pipe() via the "waitagain" label. Crashdump analyze uncovered that iter->seq was completely zeroed at this point, including iter->seq.seq.size. It means that print_trace_line() was never able to print anything and there was no forward progress. The culprit seems to be in the code: /* reset all but tr, trace, and overruns */ memset(&iter->seq, 0, sizeof(struct trace_iterator) - offsetof(struct trace_iterator, seq)); It was added by the commit 53d0aa77 ("ftrace: add logic to record overruns"). It was v2.6.27-rc1. It was the time when iter->seq looked like: struct trace_seq { unsigned char buffer[PAGE_SIZE]; unsigned int len; }; There was no "size" variable and zeroing was perfectly fine. The solution is to reinitialize the structure after or without zeroing.

Added various checks on open tracefs calls to see if tracefs is in lockdown mode, and if so, to return -EPERM. Note, the event format files (which are basically standard on all machines) as well as the enabled_functions file (which shows what is currently being traced) are not lockde down. Perhaps they should be, but it seems counter intuitive to lockdown information to help you know if the system has been modified.

Currently, most files in the tracefs directory test if tracing_disabled is set. If so, it should return -ENODEV. The tracing_disabled is called when tracing is found to be broken. Originally it was done in case the ring buffer was found to be corrupted, and we wanted to prevent reading it from crashing the kernel. But it's also called if a tracing selftest fails on boot. It's a one way switch. That is, once it is triggered, tracing is disabled until reboot. As most tracefs files can also be used by instances in the tracefs directory, they need to be carefully done. Each instance has a trace_array associated to it, and when the instance is removed, the trace_array is freed. But if an instance is opened with a reference to the trace_array, then it requires looking up the trace_array to get its ref counter (as there could be a race with it being deleted and the open itself). Once it is found, a reference is added to prevent the instance from being removed (and the trace_array associated with it freed). Combine the two checks (tracing_disabled and trace_array_get()) into a single helper function. This will also make it easier to add lockdown to tracefs later.

It appears that the allocation of the proxy_ops and then freeing it in the destroy_inode callback, is causing havoc with the memory system. Reading the documentation about destroy_inode and talking with Linus about this, this is buggy and wrong. When defining the destroy_inode() method, it is expected that the destroy_inode() will also free the inode, and not just the extra allocations done in the creation of the inode. The faulty commit causes a memory leak of the inode data structure when they are deleted. Instead of allocating the proxy_ops (and then having to free it) the checks should be done by the open functions themselves, and not hack into the tracefs directory. First revert the tracefs updates for locked_down and then later we can add the locked_down checks in the kernel/trace files.

Pull char/misc driver fixes from Greg KH: "Here are some small char/misc driver fixes for 5.4-rc3. Nothing huge here. Some binder driver fixes (although it is still being discussed if these all fix the reported issues or not, so more might be coming later), some mei device ids and fixes, and a google firmware driver bugfix that fixes a regression, as well as some other tiny fixes. All have been in linux-next with no reported issues" * tag 'char-misc-5.4-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc: firmware: google: increment VPD key_len properly w1: ds250x: Fix build error without CRC16 virt: vbox: fix memory leak in hgcm_call_preprocess_linaddr binder: Fix comment headers on binder_alloc_prepare_to_free() binder: prevent UAF read in print_binder_transaction_log_entry() misc: fastrpc: prevent memory leak in fastrpc_dma_buf_attach mei: avoid FW version request on Ibex Peak and earlier mei: me: add comet point (lake) LP device ids

Pull staging/IIO driver fixes from Greg KH: "Here are some staging and IIO driver fixes for 5.4-rc3. The "biggest" thing here is a removal of the fbtft device and flexfb code as they have been abandoned by their authors and are no longer needed for that hardware. Other than that, the usual amount of staging driver and iio driver fixes for reported issues, and some speakup sysfs file documentation, which has been long awaited for.

Pull USB fixes from Greg KH: "Here are a lot of small USB driver fixes for 5.4-rc3. syzbot has stepped up its testing of the USB driver stack, now able to trigger fun race conditions between disconnect and probe functions. Because of that we have a lot of fixes in here from Johan and others fixing these reported issues that have been around since almost all time. We also are just deleting the rio500 driver, making all of the syzbot bugs found in it moot as it turns out no one has been using it for years as there is a userspace version that is being used instead. There are also a number of other small fixes in here, all resolving reported issues or regressions.
