We currently assume that an exception is delivered to EL1, always. Once we emulate EL2, this no longer will be the case. To prepare for this, add a target_mode parameter. While we're at it, merge the computing of the target PC and PSTATE in a single function that updates both PC and CPSR after saving their previous values in the corresponding ELR/SPSR. This ensures that they are updated in the correct order (a pretty common source of bugs...). Reviewed-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Marc Zyngier <maz@kernel.org>

Keeping empty structure as the vcpu state initializer is slightly wasteful: we only want to set pstate, and zero everything else. Just do that. Signed-off-by: Marc Zyngier <maz@kernel.org>

Our sysreg reset check has become a bit silly, as it only checks whether a reset callback actually exists for a given sysreg entry, and apply the method if available. Doing the check at each vcpu reset is pretty dumb, as the tables never change. It is thus perfectly possible to do the same checks at boot time. This also allows us to introduce a sparse sys_regs[] array, something that will be required with ARMv8.4-NV. Signed-off-by: Marc Zyngier <maz@kernel.org>

As we're about to become a bit more harsh when it comes to the lack of reset callbacks, let's add the missing PMU reset handlers. Note that these only cover *CLR registers that were always covered by their *SET counterpart, so there is no semantic change here.

If we move the used_lrs field to the version-specific cpu interface structure, the following functions only operate on the struct vgic_v3_cpu_if and not the full vcpu: __vgic_v3_save_state __vgic_v3_restore_state __vgic_v3_activate_traps __vgic_v3_deactivate_traps __vgic_v3_save_aprs __vgic_v3_restore_aprs This is going to be very useful for nested virt, so move the used_lrs field and change the prototypes and implementations of these functions to take the cpu_if parameter directly.

KVM_CAP_MAX_VCPUS always return the maximum possible number of VCPUs, irrespective of the selected interrupt controller. This is pretty misleading for userspace that selects a GICv2 on a GICv3 system that supports v2 compat: It always gets a maximum of 512 VCPUs, even if the effective limit is 8. The 9th VCPU will fail to be created, which is unexpected as far as userspace is concerned. Fortunately, we already have the right information stashed in the kvm structure, and we can return it as requested.

There is already support of enabling dirty log gradually in small chunks for x86 in commit 3c9bd400 ("KVM: x86: enable dirty log gradually in small chunks"). This adds support for arm64. x86 still writes protect all huge pages when DIRTY_LOG_INITIALLY_ALL_SET is enabled. However, for arm64, both huge pages and normal pages can be write protected gradually by userspace. Under the Huawei Kunpeng 920 2.6GHz platform, I did some tests on 128G Linux VMs with different page size. The memory pressure is 127G in each case. The time taken of memory_global_dirty_log_start in QEMU is listed below: Page Size Before After Optimization 4K 650ms 1.8ms 2M 4ms 1.8ms 1G 2ms 1.8ms Besides the time reduction, the biggest improvement is that we will minimize the performance side effect (because of dissolving huge pages and marking memslots dirty) on guest after enabling dirty log.

We support mapping host memory backed by PMD transparent hugepages at stage2 as huge pages. However the checks are now spread across two different places. Let us unify the handling of the THPs to keep the code cleaner (and future proof for PUD THP support). This patch moves transparent_hugepage_adjust() closer to the caller to avoid a forward declaration for fault_supports_stage2_huge_mappings(). Also, since we already handle the case where the host VA and the guest PA may not be aligned, the explicit VM_BUG_ON() is not required.

stage2_unmap_vm() was introduced to unmap user RAM region in the stage2 page table to make the caches coherent. E.g., a guest reboot with stage1 MMU disabled will access memory using non-cacheable attributes. If the RAM and caches are not coherent at this stage, some evicted dirty cache line may go and corrupt guest data in RAM. Since ARMv8.4, S2FWB feature is mandatory and KVM will take advantage of it to configure the stage2 page table and the attributes of memory access. So we ensure that guests always access memory using cacheable attributes and thus, the caches always be coherent. So on CPUs that support S2FWB, we can safely reset the vcpu without a heavy stage2 unmapping.

Pull iommu fixes from Joerg Roedel: - Race condition fixes for the AMD IOMMU driver. These are five patches fixing two race conditions around increase_address_space(). The first race condition was around the non-atomic update of the domain page-table root pointer and the variable containing the page-table depth (called mode). This is fixed now be merging page-table root and mode into one 64-bit field which is read/written atomically. The second race condition was around updating the page-table root pointer and making it public before the hardware caches were flushed. This could cause addresses to be mapped and returned to drivers which are not reachable by IOMMU hardware yet, causing IO page-faults. This is fixed too by adding the necessary flushes before a new page-table root is published. Related to the race condition fixes these patches also add a missing domain_flush_complete() barrier to update_domain() and a fix to bail out of the loop which tries to increase the address space when the call to increase_address_space() fails. Qian was able to trigger the race conditions under high load and memory pressure within a few days of testing. He confirmed that he has seen no issues anymore with the fixes included here. - Fix for a list-handling bug in the VirtIO IOMMU driver. * tag 'iommu-fixes-v5.7-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/joro/iommu: iommu/virtio: Reverse arguments to list_add iommu/amd: Do not flush Device Table in iommu_map_page() iommu/amd: Update Device Table in increase_address_space() iommu/amd: Call domain_flush_complete() in update_domain() iommu/amd: Do not loop forever when trying to increase address space iommu/amd: Fix race in increase_address_space()/fetch_pte()

It seems that for whatever reason, gcc-10 ends up not inlining a couple of functions that used to be inlined before. Even if they only have one single callsite - it looks like gcc may have decided that the code was unlikely, and not worth inlining. The code generation difference is harmless, but caused a few new section mismatch errors, since the (now no longer inlined) function wasn't in the __init section, but called other init functions: Section mismatch in reference from the function kexec_free_initrd() to the function .init.text:free_initrd_mem() Section mismatch in reference from the function tpm2_calc_event_log_size() to the function .init.text:early_memremap() Section mismatch in reference from the function tpm2_calc_event_log_size() to the function .init.text:early_memunmap() So add the appropriate __init annotation to make modpost not complain. In both cases there were trivially just a single callsite from another __init function. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

gcc-10 has started warning about conflicting types for a few new built-in functions, particularly 'free()'. This results in warnings like: crypto/xts.c:325:13: warning: conflicting types for built-in function ‘free’; expected ‘void(void *)’ [-Wbuiltin-declaration-mismatch] because the crypto layer had its local freeing functions called 'free()'. Gcc-10 is in the wrong here, since that function is marked 'static', and thus there is no chance of confusion with any standard library function namespace. But the simplest thing to do is to just use a different name here, and avoid this gcc mis-feature. [ Side note: gcc knowing about 'free()' is in itself not the mis-feature: the semantics of 'free()' are special enough that a compiler can validly do special things when seeing it. So the mis-feature here is that gcc thinks that 'free()' is some restricted name, and you can't shadow it as a local static function. Making the special 'free()' semantics be a function attribute rather than tied to the name would be the much better model ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

gcc-10 now warns about passing aliasing pointers to functions that take restricted pointers. That's actually a great warning, and if we ever start using 'restrict' in the kernel, it might be quite useful. But right now we don't, and it turns out that the only thing this warns about is an idiom where we have declared a few functions to be "printf-like" (which seems to make gcc pick up the restricted pointer thing), and then we print to the same buffer that we also use as an input. And people do that as an odd concatenation pattern, with code like this: #define sysfs_show_gen_prop(buffer, fmt, ...) \ snprintf(buffer, PAGE_SIZE, "%s"fmt, buffer, __VA_ARGS__) where we have 'buffer' as both the destination of the final result, and as the initial argument. Yes, it's a bit questionable. And outside of the kernel, people do have standard declarations like int snprintf( char *restrict buffer, size_t bufsz, const char *restrict format, ... ); where that output buffer is marked as a restrict pointer that cannot alias with any other arguments. But in the context of the kernel, that 'use snprintf() to concatenate to the end result' does work, and the pattern shows up in multiple places. And we have not marked our own version of snprintf() as taking restrict pointers, so the warning is incorrect for now, and gcc picks it up on its own. If we do start using 'restrict' in the kernel (and it might be a good idea if people find places where it matters), we'll need to figure out how to avoid this issue for snprintf and friends. But in the meantime, this warning is not useful. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

When the controller is reconnecting, the host fails I/O and admin commands as the host cannot reach the controller. ns scanning may revalidate namespaces during that period and it is wrong to remove namespaces due to these failures as we may hang (see 205da243). One command that may fail is nvme_identify_ns_descs. Since we return success due to having ns identify descriptor list optional, we continue to compare ns identifiers in nvme_revalidate_disk, obviously fail and return -ENODEV to nvme_validate_ns, which will remove the namespace.

This is another fine warning, related to the 'zero-length-bounds' one, but hitting the same historical code in the kernel. Because C didn't historically support flexible array members, we have code that instead uses a one-sized array, the same way we have cases of zero-sized arrays. The one-sized arrays come from either not wanting to use the gcc zero-sized array extension, or from a slight convenience-feature, where particularly for strings, the size of the structure now includes the allocation for the final NUL character. So with a "char name[1];" at the end of a structure, you can do things like v = my_malloc(sizeof(struct vendor) + strlen(name)); and avoid the "+1" for the terminator. Yes, the modern way to do that is with a flexible array, and using 'offsetof()' instead of 'sizeof()', and adding the "+1" by hand. That also technically gets the size "more correct" in that it avoids any alignment (and thus padding) issues, but this is another long-term cleanup thing that will not happen for 5.7. So disable the warning for now, even though it's potentially quite useful. Having a slew of warnings that then hide more urgent new issues is not an improvement.

This is a fine warning, but we still have a number of zero-length arrays in the kernel that come from the traditional gcc extension. Yes, they are getting converted to flexible arrays, but in the meantime the gcc-10 warning about zero-length bounds is very verbose, and is hiding other issues. I missed one actual build failure because it was hidden among hundreds of lines of warning. Thankfully I caught it on the second go before pushing things out, but it convinced me that I really need to disable the new warnings for now. We'll hopefully be all done with our conversion to flexible arrays in the not too distant future, and we can then re-enable this warning. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
