Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "ARM:

   - Provide a virtual cache topology to the guest to avoid
     inconsistencies with migration on heterogenous systems. Non secure
     software has no practical need to traverse the caches by set/way in
     the first place

   - Add support for taking stage-2 access faults in parallel. This was
     an accidental omission in the original parallel faults
     implementation, but should provide a marginal improvement to
     machines w/o FEAT_HAFDBS (such as hardware from the fruit company)

   - A preamble to adding support for nested virtualization to KVM,
     including vEL2 register state, rudimentary nested exception
     handling and masking unsupported features for nested guests

   - Fixes to the PSCI relay that avoid an unexpected host SVE trap when
     resuming a CPU when running pKVM

   - VGIC maintenance interrupt support for the AIC

   - Improvements to the arch timer emulation, primarily aimed at
     reducing the trap overhead of running nested

   - Add CONFIG_USERFAULTFD to the KVM selftests config fragment in the
     interest of CI systems

   - Avoid VM-wide stop-the-world operations when a vCPU accesses its
     own redistributor

   - Serialize when toggling CPACR_EL1.SMEN to avoid unexpected
     exceptions in the host

   - Aesthetic and comment/kerneldoc fixes

   - Drop the vestiges of the old Columbia mailing list and add [Oliver]
     as co-maintainer

  RISC-V:

   - Fix wrong usage of PGDIR_SIZE instead of PUD_SIZE

   - Correctly place the guest in S-mode after redirecting a trap to the
     guest

   - Redirect illegal instruction traps to guest

   - SBI PMU support for guest

  s390:

   - Sort out confusion between virtual and physical addresses, which
     currently are the same on s390

   - A new ioctl that performs cmpxchg on guest memory

   - A few fixes

  x86:

   - Change tdp_mmu to a read-only parameter

   - Separate TDP and shadow MMU page fault paths

   - Enable Hyper-V invariant TSC control

   - Fix a variety of APICv and AVIC bugs, some of them real-world, some
     of them affecting architecurally legal but unlikely to happen in
     practice

   - Mark APIC timer as expired if its in one-shot mode and the count
     underflows while the vCPU task was being migrated

   - Advertise support for Intel's new fast REP string features

   - Fix a double-shootdown issue in the emergency reboot code

   - Ensure GIF=1 and disable SVM during an emergency reboot, i.e. give
     SVM similar treatment to VMX

   - Update Xen's TSC info CPUID sub-leaves as appropriate

   - Add support for Hyper-V's extended hypercalls, where "support" at
     this point is just forwarding the hypercalls to userspace

   - Clean up the kvm-&gt;lock vs. kvm-&gt;srcu sequences when updating the
     PMU and MSR filters

   - One-off fixes and cleanups

   - Fix and cleanup the range-based TLB flushing code, used when KVM is
     running on Hyper-V

   - Add support for filtering PMU events using a mask. If userspace
     wants to restrict heavily what events the guest can use, it can now
     do so without needing an absurd number of filter entries

   - Clean up KVM's handling of "PMU MSRs to save", especially when vPMU
     support is disabled

   - Add PEBS support for Intel Sapphire Rapids

   - Fix a mostly benign overflow bug in SEV's
     send|receive_update_data()

   - Move several SVM-specific flags into vcpu_svm

  x86 Intel:

   - Handle NMI VM-Exits before leaving the noinstr region

   - A few trivial cleanups in the VM-Enter flows

   - Stop enabling VMFUNC for L1 purely to document that KVM doesn't
     support EPTP switching (or any other VM function) for L1

   - Fix a crash when using eVMCS's enlighted MSR bitmaps

  Generic:

   - Clean up the hardware enable and initialization flow, which was
     scattered around multiple arch-specific hooks. Instead, just let
     the arch code call into generic code. Both x86 and ARM should
     benefit from not having to fight common KVM code's notion of how to
     do initialization

   - Account allocations in generic kvm_arch_alloc_vm()

   - Fix a memory leak if coalesced MMIO unregistration fails

  selftests:

   - On x86, cache the CPU vendor (AMD vs. Intel) and use the info to
     emit the correct hypercall instruction instead of relying on KVM to
     patch in VMMCALL

   - Use TAP interface for kvm_binary_stats_test and tsc_msrs_test"

<content type='text'>
Introduce the feature bit and a primitive that checks if the feature is
set behind a static key check based on the cpus_have_const_cap check.

Checking vcpu_has_nv() on systems without nested virt enabled
should have negligible overhead.

We don't yet allow userspace to actually set this feature.

Add a new signal frame record for TPIDR2 using the same format as we
already use for ESR with different magic, a header with the value from the
register appended as the only data. If SME is supported then this record is
always included.

Add a new signal context type for ZT which is present in the signal frame
when ZA is enabled and ZT is supported by the system. In order to account
for the possible addition of further ZT registers in the future we make the
number of registers variable in the ABI, though currently the only possible
number is 1. We could just use a bare list head for the context since the
number of registers can be inferred from the size of the context but for
usability and future extensibility we define a header with the number of
registers and some reserved fields in it.

<id>8fa590bf344816c925810331eea8387627bbeb40</id>
<content type='text'>
Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "ARM64:

   - Enable the per-vcpu dirty-ring tracking mechanism, together with an
     option to keep the good old dirty log around for pages that are
     dirtied by something other than a vcpu.

   - Switch to the relaxed parallel fault handling, using RCU to delay
     page table reclaim and giving better performance under load.

   - Relax the MTE ABI, allowing a VMM to use the MAP_SHARED mapping
     option, which multi-process VMMs such as crosvm rely on (see merge
     commit 382b5b87a97d: "Fix a number of issues with MTE, such as
     races on the tags being initialised vs the PG_mte_tagged flag as
     well as the lack of support for VM_SHARED when KVM is involved.
     Patches from Catalin Marinas and Peter Collingbourne").

   - Merge the pKVM shadow vcpu state tracking that allows the
     hypervisor to have its own view of a vcpu, keeping that state
     private.

   - Add support for the PMUv3p5 architecture revision, bringing support
     for 64bit counters on systems that support it, and fix the
     no-quite-compliant CHAIN-ed counter support for the machines that
     actually exist out there.

   - Fix a handful of minor issues around 52bit VA/PA support (64kB
     pages only) as a prefix of the oncoming support for 4kB and 16kB
     pages.

   - Pick a small set of documentation and spelling fixes, because no
     good merge window would be complete without those.

  s390:

   - Second batch of the lazy destroy patches

   - First batch of KVM changes for kernel virtual != physical address
     support

   - Removal of a unused function

  x86:

   - Allow compiling out SMM support

   - Cleanup and documentation of SMM state save area format

   - Preserve interrupt shadow in SMM state save area

   - Respond to generic signals during slow page faults

   - Fixes and optimizations for the non-executable huge page errata
     fix.

   - Reprogram all performance counters on PMU filter change

   - Cleanups to Hyper-V emulation and tests

   - Process Hyper-V TLB flushes from a nested guest (i.e. from a L2
     guest running on top of a L1 Hyper-V hypervisor)

   - Advertise several new Intel features

   - x86 Xen-for-KVM:

      - Allow the Xen runstate information to cross a page boundary

      - Allow XEN_RUNSTATE_UPDATE flag behaviour to be configured

      - Add support for 32-bit guests in SCHEDOP_poll

   - Notable x86 fixes and cleanups:

      - One-off fixes for various emulation flows (SGX, VMXON, NRIPS=0).

      - Reinstate IBPB on emulated VM-Exit that was incorrectly dropped
        a few years back when eliminating unnecessary barriers when
        switching between vmcs01 and vmcs02.

      - Clean up vmread_error_trampoline() to make it more obvious that
        params must be passed on the stack, even for x86-64.

      - Let userspace set all supported bits in MSR_IA32_FEAT_CTL
        irrespective of the current guest CPUID.

      - Fudge around a race with TSC refinement that results in KVM
        incorrectly thinking a guest needs TSC scaling when running on a
        CPU with a constant TSC, but no hardware-enumerated TSC
        frequency.

      - Advertise (on AMD) that the SMM_CTL MSR is not supported

      - Remove unnecessary exports

  Generic:

   - Support for responding to signals during page faults; introduces
     new FOLL_INTERRUPTIBLE flag that was reviewed by mm folks

  Selftests:

   - Fix an inverted check in the access tracking perf test, and restore
     support for asserting that there aren't too many idle pages when
     running on bare metal.

   - Fix build errors that occur in certain setups (unsure exactly what
     is unique about the problematic setup) due to glibc overriding
     static_assert() to a variant that requires a custom message.

   - Introduce actual atomics for clear/set_bit() in selftests

   - Add support for pinning vCPUs in dirty_log_perf_test.

   - Rename the so called "perf_util" framework to "memstress".

   - Add a lightweight psuedo RNG for guest use, and use it to randomize
     the access pattern and write vs. read percentage in the memstress
     tests.

   - Add a common ucall implementation; code dedup and pre-work for
     running SEV (and beyond) guests in selftests.

   - Provide a common constructor and arch hook, which will eventually
     be used by x86 to automatically select the right hypercall (AMD vs.
     Intel).

   - A bunch of added/enabled/fixed selftests for ARM64, covering
     memslots, breakpoints, stage-2 faults and access tracking.

   - x86-specific selftest changes:

      - Clean up x86's page table management.

      - Clean up and enhance the "smaller maxphyaddr" test, and add a
        related test to cover generic emulation failure.

      - Clean up the nEPT support checks.

      - Add X86_PROPERTY_* framework to retrieve multi-bit CPUID values.

      - Fix an ordering issue in the AMX test introduced by recent
        conversions to use kvm_cpu_has(), and harden the code to guard
        against similar bugs in the future. Anything that tiggers
        caching of KVM's supported CPUID, kvm_cpu_has() in this case,
        effectively hides opt-in XSAVE features if the caching occurs
        before the test opts in via prctl().

  Documentation:

   - Remove deleted ioctls from documentation

   - Clean up the docs for the x86 MSR filter.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "ARM64:

   - Enable the per-vcpu dirty-ring tracking mechanism, together with an
     option to keep the good old dirty log around for pages that are
     dirtied by something other than a vcpu.

   - Switch to the relaxed parallel fault handling, using RCU to delay
     page table reclaim and giving better performance under load.

   - Relax the MTE ABI, allowing a VMM to use the MAP_SHARED mapping
     option, which multi-process VMMs such as crosvm rely on (see merge
     commit 382b5b87a97d: "Fix a number of issues with MTE, such as
     races on the tags being initialised vs the PG_mte_tagged flag as
     well as the lack of support for VM_SHARED when KVM is involved.
     Patches from Catalin Marinas and Peter Collingbourne").

   - Merge the pKVM shadow vcpu state tracking that allows the
     hypervisor to have its own view of a vcpu, keeping that state
     private.

   - Add support for the PMUv3p5 architecture revision, bringing support
     for 64bit counters on systems that support it, and fix the
     no-quite-compliant CHAIN-ed counter support for the machines that
     actually exist out there.

   - Fix a handful of minor issues around 52bit VA/PA support (64kB
     pages only) as a prefix of the oncoming support for 4kB and 16kB
     pages.

   - Pick a small set of documentation and spelling fixes, because no
     good merge window would be complete without those.

  s390:

   - Second batch of the lazy destroy patches

   - First batch of KVM changes for kernel virtual != physical address
     support

   - Removal of a unused function

  x86:

   - Allow compiling out SMM support

   - Cleanup and documentation of SMM state save area format

   - Preserve interrupt shadow in SMM state save area

   - Respond to generic signals during slow page faults

   - Fixes and optimizations for the non-executable huge page errata
     fix.

   - Reprogram all performance counters on PMU filter change

   - Cleanups to Hyper-V emulation and tests

   - Process Hyper-V TLB flushes from a nested guest (i.e. from a L2
     guest running on top of a L1 Hyper-V hypervisor)

   - Advertise several new Intel features

   - x86 Xen-for-KVM:

      - Allow the Xen runstate information to cross a page boundary

      - Allow XEN_RUNSTATE_UPDATE flag behaviour to be configured

      - Add support for 32-bit guests in SCHEDOP_poll

   - Notable x86 fixes and cleanups:

      - One-off fixes for various emulation flows (SGX, VMXON, NRIPS=0).

      - Reinstate IBPB on emulated VM-Exit that was incorrectly dropped
        a few years back when eliminating unnecessary barriers when
        switching between vmcs01 and vmcs02.

      - Clean up vmread_error_trampoline() to make it more obvious that
        params must be passed on the stack, even for x86-64.

      - Let userspace set all supported bits in MSR_IA32_FEAT_CTL
        irrespective of the current guest CPUID.

      - Fudge around a race with TSC refinement that results in KVM
        incorrectly thinking a guest needs TSC scaling when running on a
        CPU with a constant TSC, but no hardware-enumerated TSC
        frequency.

      - Advertise (on AMD) that the SMM_CTL MSR is not supported

      - Remove unnecessary exports

  Generic:

   - Support for responding to signals during page faults; introduces
     new FOLL_INTERRUPTIBLE flag that was reviewed by mm folks

  Selftests:

   - Fix an inverted check in the access tracking perf test, and restore
     support for asserting that there aren't too many idle pages when
     running on bare metal.

   - Fix build errors that occur in certain setups (unsure exactly what
     is unique about the problematic setup) due to glibc overriding
     static_assert() to a variant that requires a custom message.

   - Introduce actual atomics for clear/set_bit() in selftests

   - Add support for pinning vCPUs in dirty_log_perf_test.

   - Rename the so called "perf_util" framework to "memstress".

   - Add a lightweight psuedo RNG for guest use, and use it to randomize
     the access pattern and write vs. read percentage in the memstress
     tests.

   - Add a common ucall implementation; code dedup and pre-work for
     running SEV (and beyond) guests in selftests.

   - Provide a common constructor and arch hook, which will eventually
     be used by x86 to automatically select the right hypercall (AMD vs.
     Intel).

   - A bunch of added/enabled/fixed selftests for ARM64, covering
     memslots, breakpoints, stage-2 faults and access tracking.

   - x86-specific selftest changes:

      - Clean up x86's page table management.

      - Clean up and enhance the "smaller maxphyaddr" test, and add a
        related test to cover generic emulation failure.

      - Clean up the nEPT support checks.

      - Add X86_PROPERTY_* framework to retrieve multi-bit CPUID values.

      - Fix an ordering issue in the AMX test introduced by recent
        conversions to use kvm_cpu_has(), and harden the code to guard
        against similar bugs in the future. Anything that tiggers
        caching of KVM's supported CPUID, kvm_cpu_has() in this case,
        effectively hides opt-in XSAVE features if the caching occurs
        before the test opts in via prctl().

  Documentation:

   - Remove deleted ioctls from documentation

   - Clean up the docs for the x86 MSR filter.

   - Various fixes"

Szabolcs Nagy has pointed out that most of our signal frame magic numbers
are chosen to be meaningful ASCII when dumped to aid manual parsing. This
seems sensible since it might help someone parsing things out, let's
document it so people implementing new signal contexts are aware of it and
are more likely to follow it.
