<id>urn:sha1:782d1be8e9234e58e7f28e0f4b60fd6ab4767a6f</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 52218fcd61cb42bde0d301db4acb3ffdf3463cc7 upstream.

The TTL field indicates the level of page table walk holding the *leaf*
entry for the address being invalidated. But currently, the TTL field
may be set to an incorrent value in the following stack:

pte_free_tlb
    __pte_free_tlb
        tlb_remove_table
            tlb_table_invalidate
                tlb_flush_mmu_tlbonly
                    tlb_flush

In this case, we just want to flush a PTE page, but the tlb-&gt;cleared_pmds
is set and we get tlb_level = 2 in the tlb_get_level() function. This may
cause some unexpected problems.

This patch set the TTL field to 0 if tlb-&gt;freed_tables is set. The
tlb-&gt;freed_tables indicates page table pages are freed, not the leaf
entry.

[ Upstream commit 9163f01130304fab1f74683d7d44632da7bda637 ]

When using CONFIG_ARM64_SW_TTBR0_PAN, a task's thread_info::ttbr0 must be
the TTBR0_EL1 value used to run userspace. With 52-bit PAs, the PA must be
packed into the TTBR using phys_to_ttbr(), but we forget to do this in some
of the SW PAN code. Thus, if the value is installed into TTBR0_EL1 (as may
happen in the uaccess routines), this could result in UNPREDICTABLE
behaviour.

Since hardware with 52-bit PA support almost certainly has HW PAN, which
will be used in preference, this shouldn't be a practical issue, but let's
fix this for consistency.

[ Upstream commit d0c94c49792cf780cbfefe29f81bb8c3b73bc76b ]

Restoring a guest with an active virtual PMU results in no perf
counters being instanciated on the host side. Not quite what
you'd expect from a restore.

In order to fix this, force a writeback of PMCR_EL0 on the first
run of a vcpu (using a new request so that it happens once the
vcpu has been loaded). This will in turn create all the host-side
counters that were missing.

[ Upstream commit f1a0a376ca0c4ef1fc3d24e3e502acbb5b795674 ]

As pointed out by commit

  de9b8f5dcbd9 ("sched: Fix crash trying to dequeue/enqueue the idle thread")

init_idle() can and will be invoked more than once on the same idle
task. At boot time, it is invoked for the boot CPU thread by
sched_init(). Then smp_init() creates the threads for all the secondary
CPUs and invokes init_idle() on them.

As the hotplug machinery brings the secondaries to life, it will issue
calls to idle_thread_get(), which itself invokes init_idle() yet again.
In this case it's invoked twice more per secondary: at _cpu_up(), and at
bringup_cpu().

Given smp_init() already initializes the idle tasks for all *possible*
CPUs, no further initialization should be required. Now, removing
init_idle() from idle_thread_get() exposes some interesting expectations
with regards to the idle task's preempt_count: the secondary startup always
issues a preempt_disable(), requiring some reset of the preempt count to 0
between hot-unplug and hotplug, which is currently served by
idle_thread_get() -&gt; idle_init().

Given the idle task is supposed to have preemption disabled once and never
see it re-enabled, it seems that what we actually want is to initialize its
preempt_count to PREEMPT_DISABLED and leave it there. Do that, and remove
init_idle() from idle_thread_get().

Secondary startups were patched via coccinelle:

  @begone@
  @@

  -preempt_disable();
  ...
  cpu_startup_entry(CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE);

<content type='text'>
commit 26778aaa134a9aefdf5dbaad904054d7be9d656d upstream.

KVM currently updates PC (and the corresponding exception state)
using a two phase approach: first by setting a set of flags,
then by converting these flags into a state update when the vcpu
is about to enter the guest.

However, this creates a disconnect with userspace if the vcpu thread
returns there with any exception/PC flag set. In this case, the exposed
context is wrong, as userspace doesn't have access to these flags
(they aren't architectural). It also means that these flags are
preserved across a reset, which isn't expected.

To solve this problem, force an explicit synchronisation of the
exception state on vcpu exit to userspace. As an optimisation
for nVHE systems, only perform this when there is something pending.

It looks like we have tolerated creating mixed-width VMs since...
forever. However, that was never the intention, and we'd rather
not have to support that pointless complexity.

Forbid such a setup by making sure all the vcpus have the same
register width.

[ Upstream commit 4d6a38da8e79e94cbd1344aa90876f0f805db705 ]

Zenghui reports that booting a kernel with "irqchip.gicv3_pseudo_nmi=1"
on the command line hits a warning during kernel entry, due to the way
we manipulate the PMR.

Early in the entry sequence, we call lockdep_hardirqs_off() to inform
lockdep that interrupts have been masked (as the HW sets DAIF wqhen
entering an exception). Architecturally PMR_EL1 is not affected by
exception entry, and we don't set GIC_PRIO_PSR_I_SET in the PMR early in
the exception entry sequence, so early in exception entry the PMR can
indicate that interrupts are unmasked even though they are masked by
DAIF.

If DEBUG_LOCKDEP is selected, lockdep_hardirqs_off() will check that
interrupts are masked, before we set GIC_PRIO_PSR_I_SET in any of the
exception entry paths, and hence lockdep_hardirqs_off() will WARN() that
something is amiss.

We can avoid this by consistently setting GIC_PRIO_PSR_I_SET during
exception entry so that kernel code sees a consistent environment. We
must also update local_daif_inherit() to undo this, as currently only
touches DAIF. For other paths, local_daif_restore() will update both
DAIF and the PMR. With this done, we can remove the existing special
cases which set this later in the entry code.

We always use (GIC_PRIO_IRQON | GIC_PRIO_PSR_I_SET) for consistency with
local_daif_save(), as this will warn if it ever encounters
(GIC_PRIO_IRQOFF | GIC_PRIO_PSR_I_SET), and never sets this itself. This
matches the gic_prio_kentry_setup that we have to retain for
ret_to_user.

The original splat from Zenghui's report was:

[ Upstream commit 263d6287da1433aba11c5b4046388f2cdf49675c ]

When a VCPU is created, the kvm_vcpu struct is initialized to zero in
kvm_vm_ioctl_create_vcpu(). On VHE systems, the first time
vcpu.arch.mdcr_el2 is loaded on hardware is in vcpu_load(), before it is
set to a sensible value in kvm_arm_setup_debug() later in the run loop. The
result is that KVM executes for a short time with MDCR_EL2 set to zero.

This has several unintended consequences:

* Setting MDCR_EL2.HPMN to 0 is constrained unpredictable according to ARM
  DDI 0487G.a, page D13-3820. The behavior specified by the architecture
  in this case is for the PE to behave as if MDCR_EL2.HPMN is set to a
  value less than or equal to PMCR_EL0.N, which means that an unknown
  number of counters are now disabled by MDCR_EL2.HPME, which is zero.

* The host configuration for the other debug features controlled by
  MDCR_EL2 is temporarily lost. This has been harmless so far, as Linux
  doesn't use the other fields, but that might change in the future.

Let's avoid both issues by initializing the VCPU's mdcr_el2 field in
kvm_vcpu_vcpu_first_run_init(), thus making sure that the MDCR_EL2 register
has a consistent value after each vcpu_load().

Pull arm64 fix from Catalin Marinas:
 "Fix kernel compilation when using the LLVM integrated assembly.

  A recent commit (2decad92f473, "arm64: mte: Ensure TIF_MTE_ASYNC_FAULT
  is set atomically") broke the kernel build when using the LLVM
  integrated assembly (only noticeable with clang-12 as MTE is not
  supported by earlier versions and the code in question not compiled).
  The Fixes: tag in the commit refers to the original patch introducing
  subsections for the alternative code sequences"
