Pavel Machek reports a warning about W+X pages found in the "Persisent"
kmap area. After grepping for it (using the correct spelling), and not
finding it, I noticed how the debug printk was just misspelled. Fix it.
The actual mapping bug that Pavel reported is still open. It's
apparently a separate issue from the known EFI page tables, looks like
it's related to the HIGHMEM mappings.

Using MMUEXT_TLB_FLUSH_MULTI doesn't buy us much since the hypervisor
will likely perform same IPIs as would have the guest.
More importantly, using MMUEXT_INVLPG_MULTI may not to invalidate the

When restarting a syscall with regs->ax == -ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK,
regs->ax is assigned to a restart_syscall number. For x32 tasks, this
syscall number must have __X32_SYSCALL_BIT set, otherwise it will be
an x86_64 syscall number instead of a valid x32 syscall number. This
issue has been there since the introduction of x32.

MPX decodes instructions in order to tell which bounds register
was violated. Part of this decoding involves looking at the "REX
prefix" which is a special instrucion prefix used to retrofit
support for new registers in to old instructions.
The X86_REX_*() macros are defined to return actual bit values:
#define X86_REX_R(rex) ((rex) & 4)
*not* boolean values. However, the MPX code was checking for
them like they were booleans. This might have led to us
mis-decoding the "REX prefix" and giving false information out to
userspace about bounds violations. X86_REX_B() actually is bit 1,
so this is really only broken for the X86_REX_X() case.
Fix the conditionals up to tolerate the non-boolean values.

The problem is in pmd_pfn_mask() and pmd_flags_mask(). These
helpers use PMD_PAGE_MASK to calculate resulting mask.
PMD_PAGE_MASK is 'unsigned long', not 'unsigned long long' as
phys_addr_t is on 32-bit PAE (ARCH_PHYS_ADDR_T_64BIT). As a
result, the upper bits of resulting mask get truncated.
pud_pfn_mask() and pud_flags_mask() aren't problematic since we
don't have PUD page table level on 32-bit systems, but it's
reasonable to keep them consistent with PMD counterpart.
Introduce PHYSICAL_PMD_PAGE_MASK and PHYSICAL_PUD_PAGE_MASK in
addition to existing PHYSICAL_PAGE_MASK and reworks helpers to
use them.

Commit 4d6b4e69a2 ("x86/PCI/ACPI: Use common interface to support
PCI host bridge") converted x86 to use the common interface
acpi_pci_root_create, but the conversion missed on code piece in
arch/x86/pci/bus_numa.c, which causes regression on some legacy
AMD platforms as reported by Arthur Marsh <arthur.marsh@internode.on.net>.
The root causes is that acpi_pci_root_create() fails to insert
host bridge resources into iomem_resource/ioport_resource because
x86_pci_root_bus_resources() has already inserted those resources.
So change x86_pci_root_bus_resources() to not insert resources into
iomem_resource/ioport_resource.

This patch removes the vpid check when emulating nested invvpid
instruction of type all-contexts invalidation. The existing code is
incorrect because:
(1) According to Intel SDM Vol 3, Section "INVVPID - Invalidate
Translations Based on VPID", invvpid instruction does not check
vpid in the invvpid descriptor when its type is all-contexts
invalidation.
(2) According to the same document, invvpid of type all-contexts
invalidation does not require there is an active VMCS, so/and
get_vmcs12() in the existing code may result in a NULL-pointer
dereference. In practice, it can crash both KVM itself and L1
hypervisors that use invvpid (e.g. Xen).

Merge tag 'kvm-arm-for-v4.4-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvmarm/kvmarm into kvm-master
KVM/ARM Fixes for v4.4-rc3.
Includes some timer fixes, properly unmapping PTEs, an errata fix, and two
tweaks to the EL2 panic code.
Paolo pointed out that enter_from_user_mode could be called
while irqflags were traced as though IRQs were on.
In principle, this could confuse lockdep. It doesn't cause any
problems that I've seen in any configuration, but if I build
with CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP=y, enable a nohz_full CPU, and add
code like:
if (irqs_disabled()) {
spin_lock(&something);
spin_unlock(&something);
}
to the top of enter_from_user_mode, then lockdep will complain
without this fix. It seems that lockdep's irqflags sanity
checks are too weak to detect this bug without forcing the
issue.
This patch adds one byte to normal kernels, and it's IMO a bit
ugly. I haven't spotted a better way to do this yet, though.
The issue is that we can't do TRACE_IRQS_OFF until after SWAPGS
(if needed), but we're also supposed to do it before calling C
code.
An alternative approach would be to call trace_hardirqs_off in
enter_from_user_mode. That would be less code and would not
bloat normal kernels at all, but it would be harder to see how
the code worked.

Saving and restoring lapic vectors in lapic_suspend() and
lapic_resume() is not consistent: the thmr vector saving is
guarded by a different config option than the restore part. The
cmci vector isn't handled at all.
Those inconsistencies are not very critical, as the missing cmci
vector will be set via mce resume handling, the wrong config
option used for restoring the thmr vector can't be configured
differently than the one which should be used.
Nevertheless correct the thmr vector restore and add cmci vector
handling.

In some functions, such as perf_cgroup_sched_in(), we do not

the BUG_ON() undefined behaviour. Experimentally, this now trips for 32bit PV
guests on Broadwell hardware. The BUG_ON() is consistent for an individual
build, but not consistent for all builds. It has also been a sitting timebomb
since SMAP support was introduced.
Use native_save_fl() instead, which will obtain an accurate view of the AC
flag.

Before this patch, we incorrectly enter the guest without requesting an
interrupt window if the IRQ chip is split between user space and the
kernel.
Because lapic_in_kernel no longer implies the PIC is in the kernel, this
patch tests pic_in_kernel to determining whether an interrupt window
should be requested when entering the guest.
If the APIC is in the kernel and we request an interrupt window the
guest will return immediately. If the APIC is masked the guest will not
not make forward progress and unmask it, leading to a loop when KVM
reenters and requests again. This patch adds a check to ensure the APIC
is ready to accept an interrupt before requesting a window.

Set KVM_REQ_EVENT when a PIC in user space injects a local interrupt.
Currently a request is only made when neither the PIC nor the APIC is in
the kernel, which is not sufficient in the split IRQ chip case.
This addresses a problem in QEMU where interrupts are delayed until
another path invokes the event loop.

This patch ensures that dm_request_for_irq_injection and
post_kvm_run_save are in sync, avoiding that an endless ping-pong
between userspace (who correctly notices that IF=0) and
the kernel (who insists that userspace handles its request
for the interrupt window).
To synchronize them, it also adds checks for kvm_arch_interrupt_allowed
and !kvm_event_needs_reinjection. These are always needed, not
just for in-kernel LAPIC.

KVM uses the get_xsave_addr() function in a different fashion from
the native kernel, in that the 'xsave' parameter belongs to guest vcpu,

get_xsave_addr() will incorrectly return the bad xsave address to KVM.
Fix it so that the passed in 'xsave' address is used - as intended
originally.

[ Tidied up the changelog. ]
Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
(This should have gone to LKML originally. Sorry for the extra
noise, folks on the cc.)
Background:
Signal frames on x86 have two formats:
1. For 32-bit executables (whether on a real 32-bit kernel or
under 32-bit emulation on a 64-bit kernel) we have a
'fpregset_t' that includes the "FSAVE" registers.
2. For 64-bit executables (on 64-bit kernels obviously), the
'fpregset_t' is smaller and does not contain the "FSAVE"
state.
When creating the signal frame, we have to be aware of whether
we are running a 32 or 64-bit executable so we create the
correct format signal frame.
Problem:
save_xstate_epilog() uses 'fx_sw_reserved_ia32' whenever it is
called for a 32-bit executable. This is for real 32-bit and
ia32 emulation.
But, fpu__init_prepare_fx_sw_frame() only initializes
'fx_sw_reserved_ia32' when emulation is enabled, *NOT* for real
32-bit kernels.
This leads to really wierd situations where 32-bit programs
lose their extended state when returning from a signal handler.
The kernel copies the uninitialized (zero) 'fx_sw_reserved_ia32'
out to userspace in save_xstate_epilog(). But when returning
from the signal, the kernel errors out in check_for_xstate()
when it does not see FP_XSTATE_MAGIC1 present (because it was
zeroed). This leads to the FPU/XSAVE state being initialized.
For MPX, this leads to the most permissive state and means we
silently lose bounds violations. I think this would also mean
that we could lose *ANY* FPU/SSE/AVX state. I'm not sure why
no one has spotted this bug.
I believe this was broken by:
72a671ced6 ("x86, fpu: Unify signal handling code paths for x86 and x86_64 kernels")
way back in 2012.

I received a bug report that running 32-bit MPX binaries on
64-bit kernels was broken. I traced it down to this little code
snippet. We were switching our "number of bounds directory
entries" calculation correctly. But, we didn't switch the other
side of the calculation: the virtual space size.
This meant that we were calculating an absurd size for
bd_entry_virt_space() on 32-bit because we used the 64-bit
virt_space.
This was _also_ broken for 32-bit kernels running on 64-bit
hardware since boot_cpu_data.x86_virt_bits=48 even when running
in 32-bit mode.
Correct that and properly handle all 3 possible cases:
1. 32-bit binary on 64-bit kernel
2. 64-bit binary on 64-bit kernel
3. 32-bit binary on 32-bit kernel
This manifested in having bounds tables not properly unmapped.
It "leaked" memory but had no functional impact otherwise.

When you call get_user(foo, bar), you effectively do a
copy_from_user(&foo, bar, sizeof(*bar));
Note that the sizeof() is implicit.
When we reach out to userspace to try to zap an entire "bounds
table" we need to go read a "bounds directory entry" in order to
locate the table's address. The size of a "directory entry"
depends on the binary being run and is always the size of a
pointer.
But, when we have a 64-bit kernel and a 32-bit application, the
directory entry is still only 32-bits long, but we fetch it with
a 64-bit pointer which makes get_user() does a 64-bit fetch.
Reading 4 extra bytes isn't harmful, unless we are at the end of
and run off the table. It might also cause the zero page to get
faulted in unnecessarily even if you are not at the end.
Fix it up by doing a special 32-bit get_user() via a cast when
we have 32-bit userspace.

It was found that a guest can DoS a host by triggering an infinite
stream of "alignment check" (#AC) exceptions. This causes the
microcode to enter an infinite loop where the core never receives
another interrupt. The host kernel panics pretty quickly due to the
effects (CVE-2015-5307).
