Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "ARM64:

   - Add support for 'slot' based PMU events, paired with new UAPI that
     compels the user to select a specific PMU implementation

   - Lazy save/restore of vCPU state for pKVM, along with various fixes
     and cleanups to the management of vCPU state between the untrusted
     host and pKVM hypervisor

   - Disable traps of EL1 registers for nested hypervisors when
     FEAT_NV2p1 is present, guaranteeing that EL2-specific register bits
     are stateful in the EL1 counterpart

   - Leverage FEAT_NV3 to avoid unnecessary ERET/TLBI traps when the
     scope of those instructions remains 'in host' (i.e. L1
     kernel/userspace)

   - Pile of fixes for the management of the VNCR pseudo-TLB, such as
     under-invalidations and races with concurrent TLBIs on other vCPUs

   - Consolidate the non-protected and pKVM view of ICH_VTR_EL2 to a
     runtime-patched constant, allowing the same data to be shared with
     pKVM prior to dropping host privileges

   - Considerable pile of LLM-assisted fixes around the shop but mostly
     in the VGIC, our in-kernel generator of bugs (and sometimes
     interrupts)

  LoongArch:

   - Advertise already-supported capabilities

   - Some bug fixes about timer and MMIO

   - Some hardening about interrupt injection

   - Replace kvm_err() with kvm_pr_unimpl()

   - Add FPU/LSX/LASX test cases for selftests

  RISC-V:

   - Svadu/Zicfiss/Zicfilp FWFT support for Guest

   - Use try_cmpxchg for IMSIC MRIF RMW

   - More arch-specific tracepoints in KVM RISC-V

   - Eager page splitting when enabling dirty logging

   - Optimize hfence request handling for SMP Guests

   - Improve dirty log clearing by skipping zero bits in mask

   - Guard HFENCE range loops against overflow

   - CPU PM notifiers in KVM RISC-V for non-retentive idle states

   - Fix kernel-mode vector context save/restore for Guest

  s390:

   - Fixes for vfio-ap

   - Fixes for the gmap rework

   - Fixes for vsie

   - AI triggered fixes all over

   - diag9c tracing

   - code move preparation for the additional arm64 support

   - enable CONTEXT_ANALYSIS

  x86:

   - Perform spring cleaning on x86.{c,h} and asm/kvm_host.h, by adding
     regs.c (the kvm_cache_regs.h =&gt; regs.h is already applied) and
     msrs.{c,h}, and moving relevant code out of x86.c

   - Split kvm_mmu in three parts, respectively to describe the format
     of page tables, walking the guest page tables and building the page
     tables. Always use the same page table walker kvm-&gt;arch.gva_walk as
     the entry point to convert a guest's virtual address, where the
     previous code used two different kvm_mmu structs depending on
     whether the walk included nested EPT/NPT or not. Make page fault
     vmexits reuse the permission checking machinery that is used for
     guest page faults. This is both a cleanup and a baby step towards
     supporting XS/XU memory permissions

   - Document some of the "fun" gotchas with the APIC base when creating
     IRQCHIPs on x86

   - Remove a defunct masterclock update from kvm_xen_shared_info_init().
     It could result in incorrect kvmclock due to triggering an
     unnecessary switch to/from masterclock mode

   - Skip Xen runstate time updates if time has effectively gone
     backwards, so that the guest doesn't report 100% steal time for
     a very, very long time

   - Drop KVM's runtime updates of the Xen PV timing CPUID leaf, as KVM
     was updating the wrong sub-leaf, and upstream KVM will soon provide
     all the information needed by userspace to populate the CPUID field
     itself

   - Fix a bug where KVM would walk a newly created rmap without holding
     the rmap lock (or mmu_lock) during aging

   - Fix a bug where aging TDP MMU SPTEs could clobber FROZEN SPTEs

   - Fix a variety of #DB priority bugs

   - Fix a class of races related to enabling Hyper-V emulation on a
     vCPU after the vCPU is visible to the rest of KVM

   - Use static calls for nested virtualization ops

   - Move more KVM-internal code out of x86's kvm_host.h

   - Enumerate support for a variety of Zhaoxin instructions that don't
     require explicit virtualization

   - Fix missing EFER validation bugs, including in the KVM_SET_SREGS*
     path

   - Harden kvm_vcpu_map() against double-mapping and thus leaking
     references

   - Misc fixes and cleanups, e.g. for largely benign syzkaller splats

  x86 (Intel):

   - Zero a vCPU's entry in VMX's Posted Interrupt Descriptor table used
     for IPI virtualization when the vCPU is freed, to fix a
     use-after-free where hardware will write to a freed vCPU's PID

   - Service local TLB flushes on a failed nested VM-Enter to fix a bug
     where KVM could miss a TLB on a future, successful VM-Enter with
     the same L2 VPID

   - Cap the maximum value shoved into the VMX Preemption Timer to
     workaround an erratum that affects all existing Intel CPUs that
     support CPUID 0x15

   - Fix VPID virtualization bugs where KVM would fail to flush hardware
     TLBs

   - Harden the TDX "populate" ioctls against bad input, and to prepare
     for supporting in-place private&lt;=&gt;shared conversion

  x86 (AMD):

   - Forcefully invalidate SNP VMSA pages if their backing guest_memfd
     page is zapped/invalidated, e.g. due to a PUNCH_HOLE in response to
     a Page-State Change request

   - Remove a dying VM from the GA Log notifier list before the VM is
     actually destroyed, to fix a potential use-after-free

   - While FOLL_WRITE was needed in the past to trigger CoW unsharing,
     nowadays FOLL_LONGTERM does that already even without FOLL_WRITE,
     and in fact, get_user_pages() actually disallows FOLL_WRITE
     together with FOLL_LONGTERM. So don't pass FOLL_WRITE when
     registering encrypted memory regions, i.e. when pinning SEV/SEV-ES
     guest memory, to fix a regression with file-backed memory
     introduced by KVM's (correct) usage of long-term pins

     (This was reviewed by mm maintainers; for more information, see
     commit ee1a586dd1fa "KVM: SEV: Drop FOLL_WRITE for encrypted region
     registration")

   - Allocate full pages for SEV/SEV-ES {DE,EN}CRYPT ops on SNP-enabled
     hosts to fix a data corruption issue due to the PSP driver
     assigning to-be-written pages to firmware (as required by the SNP
     specs)

   - Unconditionally intercept ICBEP so that KVM generates the correct
     guest RIP when handling an ICEBP-induced TASK_SWITCH #VMEXIT

   - Harden the SNP "populate" ioctls against bad input, and to prepare
     for supporting in-place private&lt;=&gt;shared conversion

  Generic:

   - Remove kvm_debugfs_dir if kvm_init() fails after creating KVM's
     debugfs

   - Add a per-VM bitmap to track which vCPU IDs have been "claimed" but
     for which the vCPU isn't yet online, and use the bitmap to reject
     duplicate IDs before calling into arch code. This allows arch code
     to consume vcpu_id without having to worry about cross-vCPU
     clobbering (at least s390 and x86 have had related bugs)

   - Rework the so called "prepare" and "invalidate" guest_memfd hooks
     to prepare for in-place private&lt;=&gt;shared conversion, and clean up a
     few warts along the way

  Selftests:

   - Automatically allocate a full page for L2 guest stacks on x86
     instead of requiring test-specific L1 guest code to carve out a
     portion of the L1 stack for L2 usage, and to ensure the L2 stack
     also adheres to the x86-64 calling convention ABI

   - Add a selftest to verify {Guest,Host}-Only behavior in x86's
     mediated PMU

   - Clean up nested SVM's handling of GPRs on L2&lt;=&gt;L1 transitions,
     reuse the functionality for nested VMX, and drop the ucall hack
     that was fudging around the lack of GPR switching on nVMX

   - Add a stress test to verify KVM doesn't clobber/drop #PF state,
     e.g. CR2, across save/restore, including when L2 is active

   - Add a test to verify KVM_CREATE_VM accepts exactly what is reported
     by KVM_CAP_VM_TYPES

   - Misc selftests fixes and cleanups

   - Fix several issues with seeding the pRNG, and rework the pRNG APIs
     to that the pRNG can be sanely used in host code, not just guest
     code

   - Add an IRQ test to validate virtual IRQ deliverty for IRQs wired up
     via KVM_IRQFD + KVM_SET_GSI_ROUTING, with optional support for
     triggering IRQs via writes to an assigned VFIO device

   - Add syscall wrappers to assert success on a variety of pthreads and
     CPU affinity APIs

   - Set vCPU pthread affinity as early as possible to reduce contention
     issues that were surfaced by PREEMPT_LAZY, which result in runtimes
     of over a minute on large hosts, versus the expected ~5 seconds

   - Rework the PMU counters test to run each testcase using a single VM
     with many vCPUs for each sub-testcase, instead of using a unique VM
     for each sub-testcase. This cuts the runtime by ~20x

  Miscellaneous:

   - MAINTAINERS updates for vfio-ap, guest_memfd, kvm-x86. Mostly
     representing the status quo more accurately, but also... welcome
     David Hildenbrand as guest_memfd reviewer!"

Pull s390 updates from Vasily Gorbik:

 - Add a cpuidle driver with polling and enabled wait states using the
   existing CPU idle infrastructure and idle governor to improve latency
   for frequent sleep/wakeup cycles. Remove the obsolete tick delay
   heuristic and generic arch_needs_cpu() hook. Add the corresponding
   driver entry to MAINTAINERS

 - Add kCFI support using the generic support provided by Clang

 - Enable Clang CONTEXT_ANALYSIS for various architecture code and for
   char, PCI, CIO and virtio drivers. Add required lock annotations,
   exclude unsupported mm helpers and remove conditional PCI locking

 - Fix secure storage access exception handling and reintroduce
   DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS previously removed as a workaround

 - Fix cpum_cf perf crashes when CPUs are brought online while per-task
   events are active. Allocate and remove per-CPU counter data from CPU
   hotplug callbacks

 - Fix a deadlock when an s390dbf debug area is unregistered while one
   of its debugfs files is being written to

 - Fix MVIY_PERCPU() with binutils older than 2.39, where an assembler
   macro silently omitted an instruction needed to repair interrupted
   operations after CPU migration

 - Remove/replace cond_resched() calls which are no-ops with the
   supported s390 preemption models

 - Fix AP queue depth and maximum message length decoding according to
   the architecture. Current hardware is not affected, but future
   hardware could report values which were handled incorrectly

 - Reflect the configured CPU state in cpu_enabled_mask so deconfigured
   CPUs are not presented as available for onlining

 - Restore the vDSO GNU_EH_FRAME program header which was lost when the
   build switched to direct linker invocation, and mark it read-only

 - Add SCLP action qualifiers used by Spyre for card initialization,
   recoverable error and telemetry reporting

 - Move KMSAN interrupt flag helpers out of line to fix
   -Wstatic-in-inline build warnings

 - Use level-specific page table entry accessors for hugetlb entries and
   ptep_get() when accessing crashed kernel memory in kdump

 - Make forced AP bus rescans killable so that a user process blocked
   behind an ongoing scan can still be terminated with SIGKILL

 - Rework pkey ioctl error paths to remove duplicated cleanup code and
   avoid freeing error pointers

 - Allow the protected guest SWIOTLB buffer to be allocated outside the
   first 2GB. Also enable dynamic SWIOTLB growth and the coherent atomic
   pool fallback to improve I/O behavior when the initial pool is
   exhausted

 - Add program check statistics and spinlock contention tracepoints.
   Increase the lockdep chain capacity to keep lockdep enabled for
   complex code paths such as btrfs

 - Simplify IPL, trap and syscall code and remove the obsolete
   unistd_32.h generation entry

 "One new driver: leapraid (similar to mpi3mr but OK'd by Broadcom). The

  ibmvfc) plus a few small core updates: a fix for an uninitialized sg
  list pad bytes plus the removal of the dma mask check for max sectors.

  The big update in the sd driver is mostly code refactoring for obscure

<title>s390/vfio-ap: Fix NULL deref in status_show() during queue probe</title>

<id>urn:sha1:dd6f4ef6f8a37412909ad787c837332fb070159c</id>
<content type='text'>
When vfio_ap_mdev_probe_queue() creates the sysfs attribute group,
the queue's driver data has not yet been set. A concurrent read of
the 'status' attribute can therefore call dev_get_drvdata() and
get NULL, which is then passed directly to
vfio_ap_mdev_for_queue() where q-&gt;apqn is unconditionally
dereferenced, causing a NULL pointer dereference.

Fix this by acquiring the update locks before calling
sysfs_create_group(). The status_show() function acquires
guests_lock before reading the driver data, so any concurrent
read will block until after dev_set_drvdata() has been called
and the update locks are released.

As a bonus, the APQN no longer needs to be read from the queue
struct after allocation — it can be read directly from apdev
before allocation and stored in a local variable, which is then
assigned to q-&gt;apqn once the allocation succeeds.

<title>s390/vfio-ap: Fix hot-unplug skipped when last AP adapter or domain removed</title>

<id>urn:sha1:917f509bfb88048094dbb85c4e9dbc4d6fe4a886</id>
<content type='text'>
The vfio_ap_mdev_hot_unplug_cfg() function uses the return value of
bitmap_andnot() to determine whether the guest APCB needs to be updated.
However, bitmap_andnot() returns false when the resulting destination
bitmap is empty. This means that if the only adapter, domain or control
domain assigned to an mdev is removed from the host's AP configuration,
the bit is correctly cleared from the shadow APCB, but bitmap_andnot()
returns false because the result is an empty bitmap. Consequently,
do_hotplug remains 0 and vfio_ap_mdev_update_guest_apcb() is never called,
leaving the KVM guest with stale hardware access to the unplugged AP
devices.

Fix this by replacing the bitmap_andnot() return value check with
bitmap_intersects() to determine whether the shadow APCB actually
overlaps with the removal mask. If there is an intersection, call
bitmap_andnot() solely for its side effect of clearing the bits, then
unconditionally set do_hotplug to trigger the guest APCB update.

<title>s390/vfio-ap: fix potential use of uninitialized apm_filtered bitmap</title>

<id>urn:sha1:bf09b9d7cd7890bc3a3b7eb63d5ece15f88bfde7</id>
<content type='text'>
The DECLARE_BITMAP(apm_filtered, AP_DEVICES) macro allocates the bitmap
on the stack without zero-initializing it.

In vfio_ap_mdev_hot_plug_cfg(), the vfio_ap_mdev_filter_matrix() function
is only called to initialize and populate apm_filtered if either
filter_adapters or filter_domains is true. If the hot plug configuration
change only adds control domains (meaning filter_cdoms is true, but
filter_adapters and filter_domains are both false),
vfio_ap_mdev_filter_matrix() is bypassed.

Consequently, apm_filtered is passed to reset_queues_for_apids() with
uninitialized stack garbage. This can cause reset_queues_for_apids() to
interpret arbitrary stack garbage bits as valid APIDs to reset, potentially
performing unintended guest hardware queue resets.

Fix this by zero-initializing the apm_filtered bitmap at the beginning of
vfio_ap_mdev_hot_plug_cfg() using bitmap_zero().
