<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.

commit 3fb884ffe921c99483a84b0175f3c03f048e9069 upstream.

For the obscure cases where PMD and PUD are the same size
(64kB pages with 42bit VA, for example, which results in only
two levels of page tables), we can't map anything as a PUD,
because there is... erm... no PUD to speak of. Everything is
either a PMD or a PTE.

So let's only try and map a PUD when its size is different from
that of a PMD.

[ Upstream commit 7b75cd5128421c673153efb1236705696a1a9812 ]

Commit 196f878a7ac2e (" KVM: arm/arm64: Signal SIGBUS when stage2 discovers
hwpoison memory") modifies user_mem_abort() to send a SIGBUS signal when
the fault IPA maps to a hwpoisoned page. Commit 1559b7583ff6 ("KVM:
arm/arm64: Re-check VMA on detecting a poisoned page") changed
kvm_send_hwpoison_signal() to use the page shift instead of the VMA because
at that point the code had already released the mmap lock, which means
userspace could have modified the VMA.

If userspace uses hugetlbfs for the VM memory, user_mem_abort() tries to
map the guest fault IPA using block mappings in stage 2. That is not always
possible, if, for example, userspace uses dirty page logging for the VM.
Update the page shift appropriately in those cases when we downgrade the
stage 2 entry from a block mapping to a page.

<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.

__hyp_call_panic_nvhe contains inline assembly which did not declare
its dependency on the __hyp_panic_string symbol.

The static-declared string has previously been kept alive because of a use in
__hyp_call_panic_vhe. Fix this in preparation for separating the source files
between VHE and nVHE when the two users land in two different compilation
units. The static variable otherwise gets dropped when compiling the nVHE
source file, causing an undefined symbol linker error later.

commit b5331379bc62611d1026173a09c73573384201d9 upstream.

When an MMU notifier call results in unmapping a range that spans multiple
PGDs, we end up calling into cond_resched_lock() when crossing a PGD boundary,
since this avoids running into RCU stalls during VM teardown. Unfortunately,
if the VM is destroyed as a result of OOM, then blocking is not permitted
and the call to the scheduler triggers the following BUG():

 | BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at arch/arm64/kvm/mmu.c:394

Use the new 'flags' argument to kvm_unmap_hva_range() to ensure that we

flags.

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.

<content type='text'>
If a stage-2 page-table contains an executable, read-only mapping at the
pte level (e.g. due to dirty logging being enabled), a subsequent write
fault to the same page which tries to install a larger block mapping
(e.g. due to dirty logging having been disabled) will erroneously inherit
the exec permission and consequently skip I-cache invalidation for the
rest of the block.

Ensure that exec permission is only inherited by write faults when the
new mapping is of the same size as the existing one. A subsequent
instruction abort will result in I-cache invalidation for the entire
block mapping.
