commit 8c9eb041cf76038eb3b62ee259607eec9b89f48d upstream.

kvm_arch_vcpu_free() is called in 2 code paths:

1) kvm_vm_ioctl()
       kvm_vm_ioctl_create_vcpu()
           kvm_arch_vcpu_destroy()
               kvm_arch_vcpu_free()
2) kvm_put_kvm()
       kvm_destroy_vm()
           kvm_arch_destroy_vm()
               kvm_mips_free_vcpus()
                   kvm_arch_vcpu_free()

Neither of the paths handles VCPU free. We need to do it in
kvm_arch_vcpu_free() corresponding to the memory allocation in
kvm_arch_vcpu_create().

commit c6c0a6637f9da54f9472144d44f71cf847f92e20 upstream.

The kfree() function already NULL checks the parameter so remove the
redundant NULL checks before kfree() calls in arch/mips/kvm/.

<id>urn:sha1:50076fbbb248639e003a33d35ec9a8c74c5f9214</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 7006e2dfda9adfa40251093604db76d7e44263b3 upstream.

Each MIPS KVM guest has its own copy of the KVM exception vector. This
contains the TLB refill exception handler at offset 0x000, the general
exception handler at offset 0x180, and interrupt exception handlers at
offset 0x200 in case Cause_IV=1. A common handler is copied to offset
0x2000 and offset 0x3000 is used for temporarily storing k1 during entry
from guest.

However the amount of memory allocated for this purpose is calculated as
0x200 rounded up to the next page boundary, which is insufficient if 4KB
pages are in use. This can lead to the common handler at offset 0x2000
being overwritten and infinitely recursive exceptions on the next exit
from the guest.

Increase the minimum size from 0x200 to 0x4000 to cover the full use of
the page.

<title>MIPS: KVM: Consult HWREna before emulating RDHWR</title>

<content type='text'>
The ability to read hardware registers from userland with the RDHWR
instruction should depend upon the corresponding bit of the HWREna
register being set, otherwise a reserved instruction exception should be
generated.

However KVM's current emulation ignores the guest's HWREna and always
emulates RDHWR instructions even if the guest OS has disallowed them.

Therefore rework the RDHWR emulation code to check for privilege or the
corresponding bit in the guest HWREna bit. Also remove the #if 0 case
for the UserLocal register. I presume it was there for debug purposes
but it seems unnecessary now that the guest can control whether it
causes a guest exception.

<content type='text'>
Previously a reserved instruction exception while in guest code would
cause a KVM internal error if kvm_mips_handle_ri() didn't recognise the
instruction (including a RDHWR from an unrecognised hardware register).

However the guest OS should really have the opportunity to catch the
exception so that it can take the appropriate actions such as sending a
SIGILL to the guest user process or emulating the instruction itself.

Therefore in these cases emulate a guest RI exception and only return
EMULATE_FAIL if that fails, being careful to revert the PC first in case
the exception occurred in a branch delay slot in which case the PC will
already point to the branch target.

Also turn the printk messages relating to these cases into kvm_debug
messages so that they aren't usually visible.

This allows crashme to run in the guest without killing the entire VM.

None of these files are actually using any __init type directives
and hence don't need to include &lt;linux/init.h&gt;.  Most are just a
left over from __devinit and __cpuinit removal, or simply due to
code getting copied from one driver to the next.

<title>MIPS: KVM: remove shadow_tlb code</title>

<id>urn:sha1:08596b0a757824df775cac0f4fa06975f578d3b2</id>
<content type='text'>
The kvm_mips_init_shadow_tlb() function is called from
kvm_arch_vcpu_init() and initialises entries 0 to
current_cpu_data.tlbsize-1 of the virtual cpu's shadow_tlb[64] array.

However newer cores with FTLBs can have a tlbsize &gt; 64, for example the
ProAptiv I'm testing on has a total tlbsize of 576. This causes
kvm_mips_init_shadow_tlb() to overflow the shadow_tlb[64] array and
overwrite the comparecount_timer among other things, causing a lock up
when starting a KVM guest.

Aside from kvm_mips_init_shadow_tlb() which only initialises it, the
shadow_tlb[64] array is only actually used by the following functions:
 - kvm_shadow_tlb_put() &amp; kvm_shadow_tlb_load()
     These are never called. The only call sites are #if 0'd out.
 - kvm_mips_dump_shadow_tlbs()
     This is never called.

It was originally added for trap &amp; emulate, but turned out to be
unnecessary so it was disabled.

So instead of fixing the shadow_tlb initialisation code, lets just
remove the shadow_tlb[64] array and the above functions entirely. The
only functional change here is the removal of broken shadow_tlb
initialisation. The rest just deletes dead code.

<title>MIPS: KVM: use common EHINV aware UNIQUE_ENTRYHI</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e36059e508c209703c3a60ef716a5b524fb0a832</id>
<content type='text'>
When KVM is enabled and TLB invalidation is supported,
kvm_mips_flush_host_tlb() can cause a machine check exception due to
multiple matching TLB entries. This can occur on shutdown even when KVM
hasn't been actively used.

Commit adb78de9eae8 (MIPS: mm: Move UNIQUE_ENTRYHI macro to a header
file) created a common UNIQUE_ENTRYHI in asm/tlb.h but it didn't update
the copy of UNIQUE_ENTRYHI in kvm_tlb.c to use it.

Commit 36b175451399 (MIPS: tlb: Set the EHINV bit for TLBINVF cores when
invalidating the TLB) later added TLB invalidation (EHINV) support to
the common UNIQUE_ENTRYHI.

Therefore make kvm_tlb.c use the EHINV aware UNIQUE_ENTRYHI
implementation in asm/tlb.h too.
