commit 8defb3367fcd19d1af64c07792aade0747b54e0f upstream.

Usually ELF_ET_DYN_BASE is 2/3 of TASK_SIZE. With 3G/1G user/kernel
split this is not so, because 2*TASK_SIZE overflows 32 bits,
so the actual value of ELF_ET_DYN_BASE is:
	(2 * TASK_SIZE / 3) = 0x2a000000

When ASLR is disabled PIE binaries will load at ELF_ET_DYN_BASE address.
On 32bit platforms AddressSanitzer uses addresses [0x20000000 - 0x40000000]
for shadow memory [1]. So ASan doesn't work for PIE binaries when ASLR disabled
as it fails to map shadow memory.
Also after Kees's 'split ET_DYN ASLR from mmap ASLR' patchset PIE binaries
has a high chance of loading somewhere in between [0x2a000000 - 0x40000000]
even if ASLR enabled. This makes ASan with PIE absolutely incompatible.

Fix overflow by dividing TASK_SIZE prior to multiplying.
After this patch ELF_ET_DYN_BASE equals to (for CONFIG_VMSPLIT_3G=y):
	(TASK_SIZE / 3 * 2) = 0x7f555554

<title>arm64: KVM: Do not use pgd_index to index stage-2 pgd</title>

commit 04b8dc85bf4a64517e3cf20e409eeaa503b15cc1 upstream.

The kernel's pgd_index macro is designed to index a normal, page
sized array. KVM is a bit diffferent, as we can use concatenated
pages to have a bigger address space (for example 40bit IPA with
4kB pages gives us an 8kB PGD.

In the above case, the use of pgd_index will always return an index
inside the first 4kB, which makes a guest that has memory above
0x8000000000 rather unhappy, as it spins forever in a page fault,
whist the host happilly corrupts the lower pgd.

The obvious fix is to get our own kvm_pgd_index that does the right
thing(tm).

Tested on X-Gene with a hacked kvmtool that put memory at a stupidly
high address.

commit 957db105c99792ae8ef61ffc9ae77d910f6471da upstream.

Introduce a new function to unmap user RAM regions in the stage2 page
tables.  This is needed on reboot (or when the guest turns off the MMU)
to ensure we fault in pages again and make the dcache, RAM, and icache
coherent.

Using unmap_stage2_range for the whole guest physical range does not
work, because that unmaps IO regions (such as the GIC) which will not be
recreated or in the best case faulted in on a page-by-page basis.

Call this function on secondary and subsequent calls to the
KVM_ARM_VCPU_INIT ioctl so that a reset VCPU will detect the guest
Stage-1 MMU is off when faulting in pages and make the caches coherent.

commit b856a59141b1066d3c896a0d0231f84dabd040af upstream.

When userspace resets the vcpu using KVM_ARM_VCPU_INIT, we should also
reset the HCR, because we now modify the HCR dynamically to
enable/disable trapping of guest accesses to the VM registers.

This is crucial for reboot of VMs working since otherwise we will not be
doing the necessary cache maintenance operations when faulting in pages
with the guest MMU off.

commit a7d079cea2dffb112e26da2566dd84c0ef1fce97 upstream.

The ISS encoding for an exception from a Data Abort has a WnR
bit[6] that indicates whether the Data Abort was caused by a
read or a write instruction. While there are several fields
in the encoding that are only valid if the ISV bit[24] is set,
WnR is not one of them, so we can read it unconditionally.

Instead of fixing both implementations of kvm_is_write_fault()
in place, reimplement it just once using kvm_vcpu_dabt_iswrite(),
which already does the right thing with respect to the WnR bit.
Also fix up the callers to pass 'vcpu'

arch/arm64/kvm/guest.c:271:25: error: symbol 'kvm_target_cpu' redeclared with different type (originally declared at ./arch/arm64/include/asm/kvm_host.h:45) - different modifiers

so fix this by adding the missing const attribute to the function

commit 4f853a714bf16338ff5261128e6c7ae2569e9505 upstream.

unmap_range() was utterly broken, to quote Marc, and broke in all sorts
of situations.  It was also quite complicated to follow and didn't
follow the usual scheme of having a separate iterating function for each
level of page tables.

Address this by refactoring the code and introduce a pgd_clear()
function.

commit 8034699a42d68043b495c7e0cfafccd920707ec8 upstream.

In order to be able to detect the point where the guest enables
its MMU and caches, trap all the VM related system registers.

Once we see the guest enabling both the MMU and the caches, we
can go back to a saner mode of operation, which is to leave these
registers in complete control of the guest.

commit af20814ee927ed888288d98917a766b4179c4fe0 upstream.

HCR.TVM traps (among other things) accesses to AMAIR0 and AMAIR1.
In order to minimise the amount of surprise a guest could generate by
trying to access these registers with caches off, add them to the
list of registers we switch/handle.

commit af20814ee927ed888288d98917a766b4179c4fe0 upstream.

HCR.TVM traps (among other things) accesses to AMAIR0 and AMAIR1.
In order to minimise the amount of surprise a guest could generate by
trying to access these registers with caches off, add them to the
list of registers we switch/handle.

commit ac30a11e8e92a03dbe236b285c5cbae0bf563141 upstream.

So far, KVM/ARM used a fixed HCR configuration per guest, except for
the VI/VF/VA bits to control the interrupt in absence of VGIC.

With the upcoming need to dynamically reconfigure trapping, it becomes
necessary to allow the HCR to be changed on a per-vcpu basis.

The fix here is to mimic what KVM/arm64 already does: a per vcpu HCR
field, initialized at setup time.
