由 Mark Rutland 提交于
If we panic in hyp mode, we inject a call to panic() into the EL1N host kernel. If a guest context is active, we first attempt to restore the minimal amount of state necessary to execute the host kernel with restore_sysregs. However, the SP is restored as part of restore_common_regs, and so we may return to the host's panic() function with the SP of the guest. Any calculations based on the SP will be bogus, and any attempt to access the stack will result in recursive data aborts. When running Linux as a guest, the guest's EL1N SP is like to be some valid kernel address. In this case, the host kernel may use that region as a stack for panic(), corrupting it in the process. Avoid the problem by restoring the host SP prior to returning to the host. To prevent misleading backtraces in the host, the FP is zeroed at the same time. We don't need any of the other "common" registers in order to panic successfully.

The ARM architecture only saves the exit class to the HSR (ESR_EL2 for arm64) on synchronous exceptions, not on asynchronous exceptions like an IRQ. However, we only report the exception class on kvm_exit, which is confusing because an IRQ looks like it exited at some PC with the same reason as the previous exit. Add a lookup table for the exception index and prepend the kvm_exit tracepoint text with the exception type to clarify this situation. Also resolve the exception class (EC) to a human-friendly text version so the trace output becomes immediately usable for debugging this code.

We introduce kvm_arm_halt_guest and resume functions. They will be used for IRQ forward state change. Halt is synchronous and prevents the guest from being re-entered. We use the same mechanism put in place for PSCI former pause, now renamed power_off. A new flag is introduced in arch vcpu state, pause, only meant to be used by those functions.

We currently schedule a soft timer every time we exit the guest if the timer did not expire while running the guest. This is really not necessary, because the only work we do in the timer work function is to kick the vcpu. Kicking the vcpu does two things: (1) If the vpcu thread is on a waitqueue, make it runnable and remove it from the waitqueue. (2) If the vcpu is running on a different physical CPU from the one doing the kick, it sends a reschedule IPI. The second case cannot happen, because the soft timer is only ever scheduled when the vcpu is not running. The first case is only relevant when the vcpu thread is on a waitqueue, which is only the case when the vcpu thread has called kvm_vcpu_block(). Therefore, we only need to make sure a timer is scheduled for kvm_vcpu_block(), which we do by encapsulating all calls to kvm_vcpu_block() with kvm_timer_{un}schedule calls. Additionally, we only schedule a soft timer if the timer is enabled and unmasked, since it is useless otherwise. Note that theoretically userspace can use the SET_ONE_REG interface to change registers that should cause the timer to fire, even if the vcpu is blocked without a scheduled timer, but this case was not supported before this patch and we leave it for future work for now.

The idle-states bindings mandate that the entry-method string in the idle-states node must be "psci" for ARM v8 64-bit systems, but the examples in the bindings report a wrong entry-method string. Owing to this typo, some dts in the kernel wrongly defined the entry-method property, since they likely cut and pasted the example definition without paying attention to the bindings definitions. This patch fixes the typo in the DT idle states bindings examples and respective dts in the kernel so that the bindings and related dts files are made compliant.

This patch removes config option of KVM_ARM_MAX_VCPUS, and like other ARCHs, just choose the maximum allowed value from hardware, and follows the reasons: 1) from distribution view, the option has to be defined as the max allowed value because it need to meet all kinds of virtulization applications and need to support most of SoCs; 2) using a bigger value doesn't introduce extra memory consumption, and the help text in Kconfig isn't accurate because kvm_vpu structure isn't allocated until request of creating VCPU is sent from QEMU; 3) the main effect is that the field of vcpus[] in 'struct kvm' becomes a bit bigger(sizeof(void *) per vcpu) and need more cache lines to hold the structure, but 'struct kvm' is one generic struct, and it has worked well on other ARCHs already in this way. Also, the world switch frequecy is often low, for example, it is ~2000 when running kernel building load in VM from APM xgene KVM host, so the effect is very small, and the difference can't be observed in my test at all.

Cortex-A53 processors <= r0p4 are affected by erratum #843419 which can lead to a memory access using an incorrect address in certain sequences headed by an ADRP instruction. There is a linker fix to generate veneers for ADRP instructions, but this doesn't work for kernel modules which are built as unlinked ELF objects. This patch adds a new config option for the erratum which, when enabled, builds kernel modules with the mcmodel=large flag. This uses absolute addressing for all kernel symbols, thereby removing the use of ADRP as a PC-relative form of addressing. The ADRP relocs are removed from the module loader so that we fail to load any potentially affected modules.

When saving/restoring the VFP registers from a compat (AArch32) signal frame, we rely on the compat registers forming a prefix of the native register file and therefore make use of copy_{to,from}_user to transfer between the native fpsimd_state and the compat_vfp_sigframe. Unfortunately, this doesn't work so well in a big-endian environment. Our fpsimd save/restore code operates directly on 128-bit quantities (Q registers) whereas the compat_vfp_sigframe represents the registers as an array of 64-bit (D) registers. The architecture packs the compat D registers into the Q registers, with the least significant bytes holding the lower register. Consequently, we need to swap the 64-bit halves when converting between these two representations on a big-endian machine. This patch replaces the __copy_{to,from}_user invocations in our compat VFP signal handling code with explicit __put_user loops that operate on 64-bit values and swap them accordingly.

This new statistic can help diagnosing VCPUs that, for any reason, trigger bad behavior of halt_poll_ns autotuning. For example, say halt_poll_ns = 480000, and wakeups are spaced exactly like 479us, 481us, 479us, 481us. Then KVM always fails polling and wastes 10+20+40+80+160+320+480 = 1110 microseconds out of every 479+481+479+481+479+481+479 = 3359 microseconds. The VCPU then is consuming about 30% more CPU than it would use without polling. This would show as an abnormally high number of attempted polling compared to the successful polls.

When restoring the system register state for an AArch32 guest at EL2, writes to DACR32_EL2 may not be correctly synchronised by Cortex-A57, which can lead to the guest effectively running with junk in the DACR and running into unexpected domain faults. This patch works around the issue by re-ordering our restoration of the AArch32 register aliases so that they happen before the AArch64 system registers.

Commit 2f4b829c ("arm64: Add support for hardware updates of the access and dirty pte bits") introduced support for handling hardware updates of the access flag and dirty status. The PTE is automatically dirtied in hardware (if supported) by clearing the PTE_RDONLY bit when the PTE_DBM/PTE_WRITE bit is set. The pte_hw_dirty() macro was added to detect a hardware dirtied pte. The pte_dirty() macro checks for both software PTE_DIRTY and pte_hw_dirty(). Functions like pte_modify() clear the PTE_RDONLY bit since it is meant to be set in set_pte_at() when written to memory. In such cases, pte_hw_dirty() would return true even though such pte is clean. This patch changes pte_hw_dirty() to test the PTE_DBM/PTE_WRITE bit together with PTE_RDONLY.

Since 2009 we have a nice asm-generic header implementing lots of DMA API functions for architectures using struct dma_map_ops, but unfortunately it's still missing a lot of APIs that all architectures still have to duplicate. This series consolidates the remaining functions, although we still need arch opt outs for two of them as a few architectures have very non-standard implementations. This patch (of 5): The coherent DMA allocator works the same over all architectures supporting dma_map operations. This patch consolidates them and converges the minor differences: - the debug_dma helpers are now called from all architectures, including those that were previously missing them - dma_alloc_from_coherent and dma_release_from_coherent are now always called from the generic alloc/free routines instead of the ops dma-mapping-common.h always includes dma-coherent.h to get the defintions for them, or the stubs if the architecture doesn't support this feature - checks for ->alloc / ->free presence are removed. There is only one magic instead of dma_map_ops without them (mic_dma_ops) and that one is x86 only anyway. Besides that only x86 needs special treatment to replace a default devices if none is passed and tweak the gfp_flags. An optional arch hook is provided for that.

When injecting a fault into a misbehaving 32bit guest, it seems rather idiotic to also inject a 64bit fault that is only going to corrupt the guest state. This leads to a situation where we perform an illegal exception return at EL2 causing the host to crash instead of killing the guest. Just fix the stupid bug that has been there from day 1.

When a task calls execve(), its FP/SIMD state is flushed so that none of the original program state is observeable by the incoming program. However, since this flushing consists of setting the in-memory copy of the FP/SIMD state to all zeroes, the CPU field is set to CPU 0 as well, which indicates to the lazy FP/SIMD preserve/restore code that the FP/SIMD state does not need to be reread from memory if the task is scheduled again on CPU 0 without any other tasks having entered userland (or used the FP/SIMD in kernel mode) on the same CPU in the mean time. If this happens, the FP/SIMD state of the old program will still be present in the registers when the new program starts. So set the CPU field to the invalid value of NR_CPUS when performing the flush, by calling fpsimd_flush_task_state().

Commit 4b3dc967 ("arm64: force CONFIG_SMP=y and remove redundant #ifdefs") incorrectly resolved a conflict on arch/arm64/kernel/Makefile which resulted in a partial revert of 52da443e ("arm64: perf: factor out callchain code"), leading to perf_callchain.o depending on CONFIG_HW_PERF_EVENTS instead of CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS. This patch restores the kconfig dependency for perf_callchain.o. Reported-by: NMark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Signed-off-by: NWill Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>

The linear region size of a 39-bit VA kernel is only 256 GB, which may be insufficient to cover all of system RAM, even on platforms that have much less than 256 GB of memory but which is laid out very sparsely. So make sure we clip the memory we will not be able to map before installing it into the memblock memory table, by setting MAX_MEMBLOCK_ADDR accordingly.

We have a micro-optimisation on the fast syscall return path where we take care to keep x0 live with the return value from the syscall so that we can avoid restoring it from the stack. The benefit of doing this is fairly suspect, since we will be restoring x1 from the stack anyway (which lives adjacent in the pt_regs structure) and the only additional cost is saving x0 back to pt_regs after the syscall handler, which could be seen as a poor man's prefetch. More importantly, this causes issues with the context tracking code. The ct_user_enter macro ends up branching into C code, which is free to use x0 as a scratch register and consequently leads to us returning junk back to userspace as the syscall return value. Rather than special case the context-tracking code, this patch removes the questionable optimisation entirely.

We don't want to expose the DCC to userspace, particularly as there is a kernel console driver for it. This patch resets mdscr_el1 to disable userspace access to the DCC registers on the cold boot path. Signed-off-by: NWill Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>
