commit d3882564a77c21eb746ba5364f3fa89b88de3d61 upstream.

Using sys_io_pgetevents() as the entry point for compat mode tasks
works almost correctly, but misses the sign extension for the min_nr
and nr arguments.

This was addressed on parisc by switching to
compat_sys_io_pgetevents_time64() in commit 6431e92fc827 ("parisc:
io_pgetevents_time64() needs compat syscall in 32-bit compat mode"),
as well as by using more sophisticated system call wrappers on x86 and
s390. However, arm64, mips, powerpc, sparc and riscv still have the
same bug.

Change all of them over to use compat_sys_io_pgetevents_time64()
like parisc already does. This was clearly the intention when the
function was originally added, but it got hooked up incorrectly in
the tables.

<title>arm64: asm-bug: Add .align 2 to the end of __BUG_ENTRY</title>

[ Upstream commit ffbf4fb9b5c12ff878a10ea17997147ea4ebea6f ]

When CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE=n, we fail to add necessary padding bytes
to bug_table entries, and as a result the last entry in a bug table will
be ignored, potentially leading to an unexpected panic(). All prior
entries in the table will be handled correctly.

The arm64 ABI requires that struct fields of up to 8 bytes are
naturally-aligned, with padding added within a struct such that struct
are suitably aligned within arrays.

When CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERPOSE=y, the layout of a bug_entry is:

	struct bug_entry {
		signed int      bug_addr_disp;	// 4 bytes
		signed int      file_disp;	// 4 bytes
		unsigned short  line;		// 2 bytes
		unsigned short  flags;		// 2 bytes
	}

... with 12 bytes total, requiring 4-byte alignment.

When CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE=n, the layout of a bug_entry is:

	struct bug_entry {
		signed int      bug_addr_disp;	// 4 bytes
		unsigned short  flags;		// 2 bytes
		&lt; implicit padding &gt;		// 2 bytes
	}

... with 8 bytes total, with 6 bytes of data and 2 bytes of trailing
padding, requiring 4-byte alginment.

When we create a bug_entry in assembly, we align the start of the entry
to 4 bytes, which implicitly handles padding for any prior entries.
However, we do not align the end of the entry, and so when
CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE=n, the final entry lacks the trailing padding
bytes.

For the main kernel image this is not a problem as find_bug() doesn't
depend on the trailing padding bytes when searching for entries:

	for (bug = __start___bug_table; bug &lt; __stop___bug_table; ++bug)
		if (bugaddr == bug_addr(bug))
			return bug;

However for modules, module_bug_finalize() depends on the trailing
bytes when calculating the number of entries:

	mod-&gt;num_bugs = sechdrs[i].sh_size / sizeof(struct bug_entry);

... and as the last bug_entry lacks the necessary padding bytes, this entry
will not be counted, e.g. in the case of a single entry:

	sechdrs[i].sh_size == 6
	sizeof(struct bug_entry) == 8;

	sechdrs[i].sh_size / sizeof(struct bug_entry) == 0;

Consequently module_find_bug() will miss the last bug_entry when it does:

	for (i = 0; i &lt; mod-&gt;num_bugs; ++i, ++bug)
		if (bugaddr == bug_addr(bug))
			goto out;

... which can lead to a kenrel panic due to an unhandled bug.

This can be demonstrated with the following module:

	static int __init buginit(void)
	{
		WARN(1, "hello\n");
		return 0;
	}

	static void __exit bugexit(void)
	{
	}

	module_init(buginit);
	module_exit(bugexit);
	MODULE_LICENSE("GPL");

... which will trigger a kernel panic when loaded:

commit f481bb32d60e45fb3d19ea68ce79c5629f3fc3a0 upstream.

This reverts commit b8995a18417088bb53f87c49d200ec72a9dd4ec1.

Ard managed to reproduce the dm-crypt corruption problem and got to the

<title>arm64: tlb: Fix TLBI RANGE operand</title>

<id>e3ba51ab24fddef79fc212f9840de54db8fd1685</id>
<content type='text'>
KVM/arm64 relies on TLBI RANGE feature to flush TLBs when the dirty
pages are collected by VMM and the page table entries become write
protected during live migration. Unfortunately, the operand passed
to the TLBI RANGE instruction isn't correctly sorted out due to the
commit 117940aa6e5f ("KVM: arm64: Define kvm_tlb_flush_vmid_range()").
It leads to crash on the destination VM after live migration because
TLBs aren't flushed completely and some of the dirty pages are missed.

For example, I have a VM where 8GB memory is assigned, starting from
0x40000000 (1GB). Note that the host has 4KB as the base page size.
In the middile of migration, kvm_tlb_flush_vmid_range() is executed
to flush TLBs. It passes MAX_TLBI_RANGE_PAGES as the argument to
__kvm_tlb_flush_vmid_range() and __flush_s2_tlb_range_op(). SCALE#3
and NUM#31, corresponding to MAX_TLBI_RANGE_PAGES, isn't supported
by __TLBI_RANGE_NUM(). In this specific case, -1 has been returned
from __TLBI_RANGE_NUM() for SCALE#3/2/1/0 and rejected by the loop
in the __flush_tlb_range_op() until the variable @scale underflows
and becomes -9, 0xffff708000040000 is set as the operand. The operand
is wrong since it's sorted out by __TLBI_VADDR_RANGE() according to
invalid @scale and @num.

Fix it by extending __TLBI_RANGE_NUM() to support the combination of
SCALE#3 and NUM#31. With the changes, [-1 31] instead of [-1 30] can
be returned from the macro, meaning the TLBs for 0x200000 pages in the
above example can be flushed in one shoot with SCALE#3 and NUM#31. The
macro TLBI_RANGE_MASK is dropped since no one uses it any more. The
comments are also adjusted accordingly.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "S390:

   - Changes to FPU handling came in via the main s390 pull request

   - Only deliver to the guest the SCLP events that userspace has
     requested

   - More virtual vs physical address fixes (only a cleanup since
     virtual and physical address spaces are currently the same)

   - Fix selftests undefined behavior

  x86:

   - Fix a restriction that the guest can't program a PMU event whose
     encoding matches an architectural event that isn't included in the
     guest CPUID. The enumeration of an architectural event only says
     that if a CPU supports an architectural event, then the event can
     be programmed *using the architectural encoding*. The enumeration
     does NOT say anything about the encoding when the CPU doesn't
     report support the event *in general*. It might support it, and it
     might support it using the same encoding that made it into the
     architectural PMU spec

   - Fix a variety of bugs in KVM's emulation of RDPMC (more details on
     individual commits) and add a selftest to verify KVM correctly
     emulates RDMPC, counter availability, and a variety of other
     PMC-related behaviors that depend on guest CPUID and therefore are
     easier to validate with selftests than with custom guests (aka
     kvm-unit-tests)

   - Zero out PMU state on AMD if the virtual PMU is disabled, it does
     not cause any bug but it wastes time in various cases where KVM
     would check if a PMC event needs to be synthesized

   - Optimize triggering of emulated events, with a nice ~10%
     performance improvement in VM-Exit microbenchmarks when a vPMU is
     exposed to the guest

   - Tighten the check for "PMI in guest" to reduce false positives if
     an NMI arrives in the host while KVM is handling an IRQ VM-Exit

   - Fix a bug where KVM would report stale/bogus exit qualification
     information when exiting to userspace with an internal error exit
     code

   - Add a VMX flag in /proc/cpuinfo to report 5-level EPT support

   - Rework TDP MMU root unload, free, and alloc to run with mmu_lock
     held for read, e.g. to avoid serializing vCPUs when userspace
     deletes a memslot

   - Tear down TDP MMU page tables at 4KiB granularity (used to be
     1GiB). KVM doesn't support yielding in the middle of processing a
     zap, and 1GiB granularity resulted in multi-millisecond lags that
     are quite impolite for CONFIG_PREEMPT kernels

   - Allocate write-tracking metadata on-demand to avoid the memory
     overhead when a kernel is built with i915 virtualization support
     but the workloads use neither shadow paging nor i915 virtualization

   - Explicitly initialize a variety of on-stack variables in the
     emulator that triggered KMSAN false positives

   - Fix the debugregs ABI for 32-bit KVM

   - Rework the "force immediate exit" code so that vendor code
     ultimately decides how and when to force the exit, which allowed
     some optimization for both Intel and AMD

   - Fix a long-standing bug where kvm_has_noapic_vcpu could be left
     elevated if vCPU creation ultimately failed, causing extra
     unnecessary work

   - Cleanup the logic for checking if the currently loaded vCPU is
     in-kernel

   - Harden against underflowing the active mmu_notifier invalidation
     count, so that "bad" invalidations (usually due to bugs elsehwere
     in the kernel) are detected earlier and are less likely to hang the
     kernel

  x86 Xen emulation:

   - Overlay pages can now be cached based on host virtual address,
     instead of guest physical addresses. This removes the need to
     reconfigure and invalidate the cache if the guest changes the gpa
     but the underlying host virtual address remains the same

   - When possible, use a single host TSC value when computing the
     deadline for Xen timers in order to improve the accuracy of the
     timer emulation

   - Inject pending upcall events when the vCPU software-enables its
     APIC to fix a bug where an upcall can be lost (and to follow Xen's
     behavior)

   - Fall back to the slow path instead of warning if "fast" IRQ
     delivery of Xen events fails, e.g. if the guest has aliased xAPIC
     IDs

  RISC-V:

   - Support exception and interrupt handling in selftests

   - New self test for RISC-V architectural timer (Sstc extension)

   - New extension support (Ztso, Zacas)

   - Support userspace emulation of random number seed CSRs

  ARM:

   - Infrastructure for building KVM's trap configuration based on the
     architectural features (or lack thereof) advertised in the VM's ID
     registers

   - Support for mapping vfio-pci BARs as Normal-NC (vaguely similar to
     x86's WC) at stage-2, improving the performance of interacting with
     assigned devices that can tolerate it

   - Conversion of KVM's representation of LPIs to an xarray, utilized
     to address serialization some of the serialization on the LPI
     injection path

   - Support for _architectural_ VHE-only systems, advertised through
     the absence of FEAT_E2H0 in the CPU's ID register

   - Miscellaneous cleanups, fixes, and spelling corrections to KVM and
     selftests

  LoongArch:

   - Set reserved bits as zero in CPUCFG

   - Start SW timer only when vcpu is blocking

   - Do not restart SW timer when it is expired

   - Remove unnecessary CSR register saving during enter guest

   - Misc cleanups and fixes as usual

  Generic:

   - Clean up Kconfig by removing CONFIG_HAVE_KVM, which was basically
     always true on all architectures except MIPS (where Kconfig
     determines the available depending on CPU capabilities). It is
     replaced either by an architecture-dependent symbol for MIPS, and
     IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_KVM) everywhere else

   - Factor common "select" statements in common code instead of
     requiring each architecture to specify it

   - Remove thoroughly obsolete APIs from the uapi headers

   - Move architecture-dependent stuff to uapi/asm/kvm.h

   - Always flush the async page fault workqueue when a work item is
     being removed, especially during vCPU destruction, to ensure that
     there are no workers running in KVM code when all references to
     KVM-the-module are gone, i.e. to prevent a very unlikely
     use-after-free if kvm.ko is unloaded

   - Grab a reference to the VM's mm_struct in the async #PF worker
     itself instead of gifting the worker a reference, so that there's
     no need to remember to *conditionally* clean up after the worker

  Selftests:

   - Reduce boilerplate especially when utilize selftest TAP
     infrastructure

   - Add basic smoke tests for SEV and SEV-ES, along with a pile of
     library support for handling private/encrypted/protected memory

   - Fix benign bugs where tests neglect to close() guest_memfd files"

     performance improvement in VM-Exit microbenchmarks when a vPMU is
     exposed to the guest

   - Tighten the check for "PMI in guest" to reduce false positives if
     an NMI arrives in the host while KVM is handling an IRQ VM-Exit

   - Fix a bug where KVM would report stale/bogus exit qualification
     information when exiting to userspace with an internal error exit
     code

   - Add a VMX flag in /proc/cpuinfo to report 5-level EPT support

   - Rework TDP MMU root unload, free, and alloc to run with mmu_lock
     held for read, e.g. to avoid serializing vCPUs when userspace
     deletes a memslot

   - Tear down TDP MMU page tables at 4KiB granularity (used to be
     1GiB). KVM doesn't support yielding in the middle of processing a
     zap, and 1GiB granularity resulted in multi-millisecond lags that
     are quite impolite for CONFIG_PREEMPT kernels

   - Allocate write-tracking metadata on-demand to avoid the memory
     overhead when a kernel is built with i915 virtualization support
     but the workloads use neither shadow paging nor i915 virtualization

   - Explicitly initialize a variety of on-stack variables in the
     emulator that triggered KMSAN false positives

   - Fix the debugregs ABI for 32-bit KVM

   - Rework the "force immediate exit" code so that vendor code
     ultimately decides how and when to force the exit, which allowed
     some optimization for both Intel and AMD

   - Fix a long-standing bug where kvm_has_noapic_vcpu could be left
     elevated if vCPU creation ultimately failed, causing extra
     unnecessary work

   - Cleanup the logic for checking if the currently loaded vCPU is
     in-kernel

   - Harden against underflowing the active mmu_notifier invalidation
     count, so that "bad" invalidations (usually due to bugs elsehwere
     in the kernel) are detected earlier and are less likely to hang the
     kernel

  x86 Xen emulation:

   - Overlay pages can now be cached based on host virtual address,
     instead of guest physical addresses. This removes the need to
     reconfigure and invalidate the cache if the guest changes the gpa
     but the underlying host virtual address remains the same

   - When possible, use a single host TSC value when computing the
     deadline for Xen timers in order to improve the accuracy of the
     timer emulation

   - Inject pending upcall events when the vCPU software-enables its
     APIC to fix a bug where an upcall can be lost (and to follow Xen's
     behavior)

   - Fall back to the slow path instead of warning if "fast" IRQ
     delivery of Xen events fails, e.g. if the guest has aliased xAPIC
     IDs

  RISC-V:

   - Support exception and interrupt handling in selftests

   - New self test for RISC-V architectural timer (Sstc extension)

   - New extension support (Ztso, Zacas)

   - Support userspace emulation of random number seed CSRs

  ARM:

   - Infrastructure for building KVM's trap configuration based on the
     architectural features (or lack thereof) advertised in the VM's ID
     registers

   - Support for mapping vfio-pci BARs as Normal-NC (vaguely similar to
     x86's WC) at stage-2, improving the performance of interacting with
     assigned devices that can tolerate it

   - Conversion of KVM's representation of LPIs to an xarray, utilized
     to address serialization some of the serialization on the LPI
     injection path

   - Support for _architectural_ VHE-only systems, advertised through
     the absence of FEAT_E2H0 in the CPU's ID register

   - Miscellaneous cleanups, fixes, and spelling corrections to KVM and
     selftests

  LoongArch:

   - Set reserved bits as zero in CPUCFG

   - Start SW timer only when vcpu is blocking

   - Do not restart SW timer when it is expired

   - Remove unnecessary CSR register saving during enter guest

   - Misc cleanups and fixes as usual

  Generic:

   - Clean up Kconfig by removing CONFIG_HAVE_KVM, which was basically
     always true on all architectures except MIPS (where Kconfig
     determines the available depending on CPU capabilities). It is
     replaced either by an architecture-dependent symbol for MIPS, and
     IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_KVM) everywhere else

   - Factor common "select" statements in common code instead of
     requiring each architecture to specify it

   - Remove thoroughly obsolete APIs from the uapi headers

   - Move architecture-dependent stuff to uapi/asm/kvm.h

   - Always flush the async page fault workqueue when a work item is
     being removed, especially during vCPU destruction, to ensure that
     there are no workers running in KVM code when all references to
     KVM-the-module are gone, i.e. to prevent a very unlikely
     use-after-free if kvm.ko is unloaded

   - Grab a reference to the VM's mm_struct in the async #PF worker
     itself instead of gifting the worker a reference, so that there's
     no need to remember to *conditionally* clean up after the worker

  Selftests:

   - Reduce boilerplate especially when utilize selftest TAP
     infrastructure

   - Add basic smoke tests for SEV and SEV-ES, along with a pile of
     library support for handling private/encrypted/protected memory

   - Fix benign bugs where tests neglect to close() guest_memfd files"
