[ Upstream commit 77bbbc0cf84834ed130838f7ac1988567f4d0288 ]

The POWER9 vCPU TLB management code assumes all threads in a core share
a TLB, and that TLBIEL execued by one thread will invalidate TLBs for
all threads. This is not the case for SMT8 capable POWER9 and POWER10
(big core) processors, where the TLB is split between groups of threads.
This results in TLB multi-hits, random data corruption, etc.

Fix this by introducing cpu_first_tlb_thread_sibling etc., to determine
which siblings share TLBs, and use that in the guest TLB flushing code.

<content type='text'>
commit 51696f39cbee5bb684e7959c0c98b5f54548aa34 upstream.

LLVM does not emit optimal byteswap assembly, which results in high
stack usage in kvmhv_enter_nested_guest() due to the inlining of
byteswap_pt_regs(). With LLVM 12.0.0:

arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_hv_nested.c:289:6: error: stack frame size of
2512 bytes in function 'kvmhv_enter_nested_guest' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than=]
long kvmhv_enter_nested_guest(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu)
     ^
1 error generated.

While this gets fixed in LLVM, mark byteswap_pt_regs() as
noinline_for_stack so that it does not get inlined and break the build
due to -Werror by default in arch/powerpc/. Not inlining saves
approximately 800 bytes with LLVM 12.0.0:

arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_hv_nested.c:290:6: warning: stack frame size of
1728 bytes in function 'kvmhv_enter_nested_guest' [-Wframe-larger-than=]
long kvmhv_enter_nested_guest(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu)
     ^

commit 1438709e6328925ef496dafd467dbd0353137434 upstream.

Similar to commit 25edcc50d76c ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Save and restore
FSCR in the P9 path"), ensure the P7/8 path saves and restores the host
FSCR. The logic explained in that patch actually applies there to the
old path well: a context switch can be made before kvmppc_vcpu_run_hv
restores the host FSCR and returns.

Now both the p9 and the p7/8 paths now save and restore their FSCR, it
no longer needs to be restored at the end of kvmppc_vcpu_run_hv

[ Upstream commit 5088eb4092df12d701af8e0e92860b7186365279 ]

The host CTRL (runlatch) value is not restored after guest exit. The
host CTRL should always be 1 except in CPU idle code, so this can result
in the host running with runlatch clear, and potentially switching to
a different vCPU which then runs with runlatch clear as well.

This has little effect on P9 machines, CTRL is only responsible for some
PMU counter logic in the host and so other than corner cases of software
relying on that, or explicitly reading the runlatch value (Linux does
not appear to be affected but it's possible non-Linux guests could be),
there should be no execution correctness problem, though it could be
used as a covert channel between guests.

There may be microcontrollers, firmware or monitoring tools that sample
the runlatch value out-of-band, however since the register is writable
by guests, these values would (should) not be relied upon for correct
operation of the host, so suboptimal performance or incorrect reporting
should be the worst problem.

commit ee1bc694fbaec1a662770703fc34a74abf418938 upstream.

lkp reported a randconfig failure:

     In file included from arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/pkeys.h:6,
                    from arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_64_mmu_host.c:15:

We added the include of book3s/64/pkeys.h for pte_to_hpte_pkey_bits(),
but that header on its own should only be included when PPC_MEM_KEYS=y.
Instead include linux/pkeys.h, which brings in the right definitions
when PPC_MEM_KEYS=y and also provides empty stubs when PPC_MEM_KEYS=n.

commit e4e8bc1df691ba5ba749d1e2b67acf9827e51a35 upstream.

The changes to add KUAP support with the hash MMU broke booting of KVM
PR guests. The symptom is no visible progress of the guest, or possibly
just "SLOF" being printed to the qemu console.

Host code is still executing, but breaking into xmon might show a stack
trace such as:

  __might_fault+0x84/0xe0 (unreliable)
  kvm_read_guest+0x1c8/0x2f0 [kvm]
  kvmppc_ld+0x1b8/0x2d0 [kvm]
  kvmppc_load_last_inst+0x50/0xa0 [kvm]
  kvmppc_exit_pr_progint+0x178/0x220 [kvm_pr]
  kvmppc_handle_exit_pr+0x31c/0xe30 [kvm_pr]
  after_sprg3_load+0x80/0x90 [kvm_pr]
  kvmppc_vcpu_run_pr+0x104/0x260 [kvm_pr]
  kvmppc_vcpu_run+0x34/0x48 [kvm]
  kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run+0x340/0x450 [kvm]
  kvm_vcpu_ioctl+0x2ac/0x8c0 [kvm]
  sys_ioctl+0x320/0x1060
  system_call_exception+0x160/0x270
  system_call_common+0xf0/0x27c

Bisect points to commit b2ff33a10c8b ("powerpc/book3s64/hash/kuap:
Enable kuap on hash"), but that's just the commit that enabled KUAP with
hash and made the bug visible.

The root cause seems to be that KVM PR is creating kernel mappings that
don't use the correct key, since we switched to using key 3.

We have a helper for adding the right key value, however it's designed
to take a pteflags variable, which the KVM code doesn't have. But we can
make it work by passing 0 for the pteflags, and tell it explicitly that
it should use the kernel key.

With that changed guests boot successfully.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:

 - A large series adding wrappers for our interrupt handlers, so that
   irq/nmi/user tracking can be isolated in the wrappers rather than
   spread in each handler.

 - Conversion of the 32-bit syscall handling into C.

 - A series from Nick to streamline our TLB flushing when using the
   Radix MMU.

 - Switch to using queued spinlocks by default for 64-bit server CPUs.

 - A rework of our PCI probing so that it happens later in boot, when
   more generic infrastructure is available.

 - Two small fixes to allow 32-bit little-endian processes to run on
   64-bit kernels.

 - Other smaller features, fixes &amp; cleanups.

<content type='text'>
Track the range being invalidated by mmu_notifier and skip page fault
retries if the fault address is not affected by the in-progress
invalidation. Handle concurrent invalidations by finding the minimal
range which includes all ranges being invalidated. Although the combined
range may include unrelated addresses and cannot be shrunk as individual
invalidation operations complete, it is unlikely the marginal gains of
proper range tracking are worth the additional complexity.

The primary benefit of this change is the reduction in the likelihood of
extreme latency when handing a page fault due to another thread having
been preempted while modifying host virtual addresses.
