However, if ept=Y rmode identity map will be created, then kvm_mmu_calculate_mmu_pages() will extend the number of VM's mmu pages to at least KVM_MIN_ALLOC_MMU_PAGES which just hide the issue. I saw the scenario kvm->arch.n_max_mmu_pages == 0 && kvm->arch.n_used_mmu_pages == 1, so there is one active mmu page on the list, kvm_mmu_prepare_zap_page() fails to zap any pages, however prepare_zap_oldest_mmu_page() always returns true. It incurs infinite loop in make_mmu_pages_available() which causes mmu->lock softlockup. This patch fixes it by setting the return value of prepare_zap_oldest_mmu_page() according to whether or not there is mmu page zapped.

Commit 14727754 ("kvm: svm: Add support for additional SVM NPF error codes", 2016-11-23) added a new error code to aid nested page fault handling. The commit unprotects (kvm_mmu_unprotect_page) the page when we get a NPF due to guest page table walk where the page was marked RO. However, if an L0->L2 shadow nested page table can also be marked read-only when a page is read only in L1's nested page table. If such a page is accessed by L2 while walking page tables it can cause a nested page fault (page table walks are write accesses). However, after kvm_mmu_unprotect_page we may get another page fault, and again in an endless stream. To cover this use case, we qualify the new error_code check with vcpu->arch.mmu_direct_map so that the error_code check would run on L1 guest, and not the L2 guest. This avoids hitting the above scenario.

If a vcpu exits due to request a user mode spinlock, then the spinlock-holder may be preempted in user mode or kernel mode. (Note that not all architectures trap spin loops in user mode, only AMD x86 and ARM/ARM64 currently do). But if a vcpu exits in kernel mode, then the holder must be preempted in kernel mode, so we should choose a vcpu in kernel mode as a more likely candidate for the lock holder. This introduces kvm_arch_vcpu_in_kernel() to decide whether the vcpu is in kernel-mode when it's preempted. kvm_vcpu_on_spin's new argument says the same of the spinning VCPU.

It has been experimentally confirmed that supporting these two MSRs is one of the necessary conditions for nested Hyper-V to use the TSC page. Modern Windows guests are noticeably slower when they fall back to reading timestamps from the HV_X64_MSR_TIME_REF_COUNT MSR instead of using the TSC page. The newly supported MSRs are advertised with the AccessFrequencyRegs partition privilege flag and CPUID.40000003H:EDX[8] "Support for determining timer frequencies is available" (both outside of the scope of this KVM patch).

The latest change of compat_sys_sigpending in commit 8f13621a ("sigpending(): move compat to native") has broken it in two ways. First, it tries to write 4 bytes more than userspace expects: sizeof(old_sigset_t) == sizeof(long) == 8 instead of sizeof(compat_old_sigset_t) == sizeof(u32) == 4. Second, on big endian architectures these bytes are being written in the wrong order. This bug was found by strace test suite.

When an xattr block has a single reference, block is updated inplace and it is reinserted to the cache. Later, a cache lookup is performed to see whether an existing block has the same contents. This cache lookup will most of the time return the just inserted entry so deduplication is not achieved. Running the following test script will produce two xattr blocks which can be observed in "File ACL: " line of debugfs output: mke2fs -b 1024 -I 128 -F -O extent /dev/sdb 1G mount /dev/sdb /mnt/sdb touch /mnt/sdb/{x,y} setfattr -n user.1 -v aaa /mnt/sdb/x setfattr -n user.2 -v bbb /mnt/sdb/x setfattr -n user.1 -v aaa /mnt/sdb/y setfattr -n user.2 -v bbb /mnt/sdb/y debugfs -R 'stat x' /dev/sdb | cat debugfs -R 'stat y' /dev/sdb | cat This patch defers the reinsertion to the cache so that we can locate other blocks with the same contents.

This replaces the fixed-length structure on the stack with a variable-length structure, using the correct upper bound that tells the compiler that everything is really fine here. I also change the loop count to check for the same upper bound for consistency, but the existing code is already correct here. Note that while clang won't allow certain kinds of variable-length arrays in structures, this particular instance is fine, as the array is at the end of the structure, and the size is strictly bounded.

The dir_nlink feature has been enabled by default for new ext4 filesystems since e2fsprogs-1.41 in 2008, and was automatically enabled by the kernel for older ext4 filesystems since the dir_nlink feature was added with ext4 in kernel 2.6.28+ when the subdirectory count exceeded EXT4_LINK_MAX-1. Automatically adding the file system features such as dir_nlink is generally frowned upon, since it could cause the file system to not be mountable on older kernel, thus preventing the administrator from rolling back to an older kernel if necessary. In this case, the administrator might also want to disable the feature because glibc's fts_read() function does not correctly optimize directory traversal for directories that use st_nlinks field of 1 to indicate that the number of links in the directory are not tracked by the file system, and could fail to traverse the full directory hierarchy. Fortunately, in the past ten years very few users have complained about incomplete file system traversal by glibc's fts_read(). This commit also changes ext4_inc_count() to allow i_nlinks to reach the full EXT4_LINK_MAX links on the parent directory (including "." and "..") before changing i_links_count to be 1.
