[ Upstream commit 7bc1a0f9e1765830e945669c99c59c35cf9bca82 ]

On arm64, the global variable memstart_addr represents the physical
address of PAGE_OFFSET, and so physical to virtual translations or
vice versa used to come down to simple additions or subtractions
involving the values of PAGE_OFFSET and memstart_addr.

When support for 52-bit virtual addressing was introduced, we had to
deal with PAGE_OFFSET potentially being outside of the region that
can be covered by the virtual range (as the 52-bit VA capable build
needs to be able to run on systems that are only 48-bit VA capable),
and for this reason, another translation was introduced, and recorded
in the global variable physvirt_offset.

However, if we go back to the original definition of memstart_addr,
i.e., the physical address of PAGE_OFFSET, it turns out that there is
no need for two separate translations: instead, we can simply subtract
the size of the unaddressable VA space from memstart_addr to make the
available physical memory appear in the 48-bit addressable VA region.

This simplifies things, but also fixes a bug on KASLR builds, which
may update memstart_addr later on in arm64_memblock_init(), but fails
to update vmemmap and physvirt_offset accordingly.

[ Upstream commit 93396936ed0ce2c6f44140bd14728611d0bb065e ]

Currently the ARMv8.3-PAuth combined branch instructions (braa, retaa
etc.) are not simulated for out-of-line execution with a handler. Hence the
uprobe of such instructions leads to kernel warnings in a loop as they are
not explicitly checked and fall into INSN_GOOD categories. Other combined
instructions like LDRAA and LDRBB can be probed.

The issue of the combined branch instructions is fixed by adding
group definitions of all such instructions and rejecting their probes.
The instruction groups added are br_auth(braa, brab, braaz and brabz),
blr_auth(blraa, blrab, blraaz and blrabz), ret_auth(retaa and retab) and
eret_auth(eretaa and eretab).

<title>KVM: arm64: Assume write fault on S1PTW permission fault on instruction fetch</title>

<id>urn:sha1:8b76d62a9986abbc6f7e5dad658ef65ed7e8c9e6</id>
<content type='text'>
commit c4ad98e4b72cb5be30ea282fce935248f2300e62 upstream.

KVM currently assumes that an instruction abort can never be a write.
This is in general true, except when the abort is triggered by
a S1PTW on instruction fetch that tries to update the S1 page tables
(to set AF, for example).

This can happen if the page tables have been paged out and brought
back in without seeing a direct write to them (they are thus marked
read only), and the fault handling code will make the PT executable(!)
instead of writable. The guest gets stuck forever.

In these conditions, the permission fault must be considered as
a write so that the Stage-1 update can take place. This is essentially
the I-side equivalent of the problem fixed by 60e21a0ef54c ("arm64: KVM:
Take S1 walks into account when determining S2 write faults").

Update kvm_is_write_fault() to return true on IABT+S1PTW, and introduce
kvm_vcpu_trap_is_exec_fault() that only return true when no faulting
on a S1 fault. Additionally, kvm_vcpu_dabt_iss1tw() is renamed to
kvm_vcpu_abt_iss1tw(), as the above makes it plain that it isn't
specific to data abort.

<title>KVM: arm64: Survive synchronous exceptions caused by AT instructions</title>

<id>urn:sha1:495b506743a1642ac80e9faada2b5ac9ce25294b</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 88a84ccccb3966bcc3f309cdb76092a9892c0260 upstream.

KVM doesn't expect any synchronous exceptions when executing, any such
exception leads to a panic(). AT instructions access the guest page
tables, and can cause a synchronous external abort to be taken.

The arm-arm is unclear on what should happen if the guest has configured
the hardware update of the access-flag, and a memory type in TCR_EL1 that
does not support atomic operations. B2.2.6 "Possible implementation
restrictions on using atomic instructions" from DDI0487F.a lists
synchronous external abort as a possible behaviour of atomic instructions
that target memory that isn't writeback cacheable, but the page table
walker may behave differently.

Make KVM robust to synchronous exceptions caused by AT instructions.
Add a get_user() style helper for AT instructions that returns -EFAULT
if an exception was generated.

While KVM's version of the exception table mixes synchronous and
asynchronous exceptions, only one of these can occur at each location.

Re-enter the guest when the AT instructions take an exception on the
assumption the guest will take the same exception. This isn't guaranteed
to make forward progress, as the AT instructions may always walk the page
tables, but guest execution may use the translation cached in the TLB.

This isn't a problem, as since commit 5dcd0fdbb492 ("KVM: arm64: Defer guest
entry when an asynchronous exception is pending"), KVM will return to the
host to process IRQs allowing the rest of the system to keep running.

commit e9ee186bb735bfc17fa81dbc9aebf268aee5b41e upstream.

KVM has a one instruction window where it will allow an SError exception
to be consumed by the hypervisor without treating it as a hypervisor bug.
This is used to consume asynchronous external abort that were caused by
the guest.

As we are about to add another location that survives unexpected exceptions,
generalise this code to make it behave like the host's extable.

KVM's version has to be mapped to EL2 to be accessible on nVHE systems.

The SError vaxorcism code is a one instruction window, so has two entries
in the extable. Because the KVM code is copied for VHE and nVHE, we end up
with four entries, half of which correspond with code that isn't mapped.

<content type='text'>
commit 71a7f8cb1ca4ca7214a700b1243626759b6c11d4 upstream.

AT instructions do a translation table walk and return the result, or
the fault in PAR_EL1. KVM uses these to find the IPA when the value is
not provided by the CPU in HPFAR_EL1.

If a translation table walk causes an external abort it is taken as an
exception, even if it was due to an AT instruction. (DDI0487F.a's D5.2.11
"Synchronous faults generated by address translation instructions")

While we previously made KVM resilient to exceptions taken due to AT
instructions, the device access causes mismatched attributes, and may
occur speculatively. Prevent this, by forbidding a walk through memory
described as device at stage2. Now such AT instructions will report a
stage2 fault.

Such a fault will cause KVM to restart the guest. If the AT instructions
always walk the page tables, but guest execution uses the translation cached
in the TLB, the guest can't make forward progress until the TLB entry is
evicted. This isn't a problem, as since commit 5dcd0fdbb492 ("KVM: arm64:
Defer guest entry when an asynchronous exception is pending"), KVM will
return to the host to process IRQs allowing the rest of the system to keep
running.

commit fdfe7cbd58806522e799e2a50a15aee7f2cbb7b6 upstream.

The 'flags' field of 'struct mmu_notifier_range' is used to indicate
whether invalidate_range_{start,end}() are permitted to block. In the
case of kvm_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start(), this field is not
forwarded on to the architecture-specific implementation of
kvm_unmap_hva_range() and therefore the backend cannot sensibly decide
whether or not to block.

Add an extra 'flags' parameter to kvm_unmap_hva_range() so that
architectures are aware as to whether or not they are permitted to block.
