- Remove redundant GHCB initialization guards in the SEV page state and
SVSM call paths now that the GHCB helpers handle early-boot fallback
internally
- Skip SNP initialization in the CCP driver immediately when the
preparation step fails rather than proceeding to an operation that
will certainly fail
- Abort SNP preparation and return an error when not all CPUs are
online, since the firmware enforces that every CPU enables SNP and
will fail init if not
- Simplify the VMM communication exception entry path by replacing
separate kernel and user mode macros with a single handler that
dispatches based on the current privilege level

"Futex updates:
- Optimize futex hash bucket access patterns (Peter Zijlstra)
- Large series to address the robust futex unlock race for real, by
Thomas Gleixner:
"The robust futex unlock mechanism is racy in respect to the
clearing of the robust_list_head::list_op_pending pointer because
unlock and clearing the pointer are not atomic.
The race window is between the unlock and clearing the pending op
pointer. If the task is forced to exit in this window, exit will
access a potentially invalid pending op pointer when cleaning up
the robust list.
That happens if another task manages to unmap the object
containing the lock before the cleanup, which results in an UAF.
In the worst case this UAF can lead to memory corruption when
unrelated content has been mapped to the same address by the time
the access happens.
User space can't solve this problem without help from the kernel.
This series provides the kernel side infrastructure to help it
along:
1) Combined unlock, pointer clearing, wake-up for the
contended case
2) VDSO based unlock and pointer clearing helpers with a
fix-up function in the kernel when user space was interrupted
within the critical section.

When the FUTEX_ROBUST_UNLOCK mechanism is used for unlocking (PI-)futexes,
then the unlock sequence in userspace looks like this:
1) robust_list_set_op_pending(mutex);
2) robust_list_remove(mutex);
lval = gettid();
3) if (atomic_try_cmpxchg(&mutex->lock, lval, 0))
4) robust_list_clear_op_pending();
else
5) sys_futex(OP,...FUTEX_ROBUST_UNLOCK);
That still leaves a minimal race window between #3 and #4 where the mutex
could be acquired by some other task which observes that it is the last
user and:
1) unmaps the mutex memory
2) maps a different file, which ends up covering the same address
When then the original task exits before reaching #5 then the kernel robust
list handling observes the pending op entry and tries to fix up user space.
In case that the newly mapped data contains the TID of the exiting thread
at the address of the mutex/futex the kernel will set the owner died bit in
that memory and therefore corrupt unrelated data.
Provide a VDSO function which exposes the critical section window in the
VDSO symbol table. The resulting addresses are updated in the task's mm
when the VDSO is (re)map()'ed.
The core code detects when a task was interrupted within the critical
section and is about to deliver a signal. It then invokes an architecture
specific function which determines whether the pending op pointer has to be
cleared or not. The unlock assembly sequence on 64-bit is:
mov %esi,%eax // Load TID into EAX
xor %ecx,%ecx // Set ECX to 0
lock cmpxchg %ecx,(%rdi) // Try the TID -> 0 transition
.Lstart:
jnz .Lend
movq %rcx,(%rdx) // Clear list_op_pending
.Lend:
ret
So the decision can be simply based on the ZF state in regs->flags. The
pending op pointer is always in DX independent of the build mode
(32/64-bit) to make the pending op pointer retrieval uniform. The size of
the pointer is stored in the matching criticial section range struct and
the core code retrieves it from there. So the pointer retrieval function
does not have to care. It is bit-size independent:
return regs->flags & X86_EFLAGS_ZF ? regs->dx : NULL;
There are two entry points to handle the different robust list pending op
pointer size:
__vdso_futex_robust_list64_try_unlock()
__vdso_futex_robust_list32_try_unlock()
The 32-bit VDSO provides only __vdso_futex_robust_list32_try_unlock().
The 64-bit VDSO provides always __vdso_futex_robust_list64_try_unlock() and
when COMPAT is enabled also the list32 variant, which is required to
support multi-size robust list pointers used by gaming emulators.
The unlock function is inspired by an idea from Mathieu Desnoyers.

There will be a VDSO function to unlock non-contended robust futexes in user space. The unlock sequence is racy vs. clearing the list_pending_op pointer in the task's robust list head. To plug this race the kernel needs to know the critical section window so it can clear the pointer when the task is interrupted within that race window. The window is determined by labels in the inline assembly. Add these symbols to the vdso2c generator and use them in the VDSO VMA code to update the critical section addresses in mm_struct::futex on (re)map(). The symbols are not exported to user space, but available in the debug version of the vDSO.

Vishal reported that KVM unit test 'x2apic' started failing after commit
0e98eb14814e ("entry: Prepare for deferred hrtimer rearming").
The reason is that KVM/VMX is injecting interrupts while it has interrupts
disabled, for a context that will enable interrupts, this means that
regs->flags.X86_EFLAGS_IF == 0 and irqentry_exit() will not do the right
thing.
Notably, irqentry_exit() must not call hrtimer_rearm_deferred() when the return
context does not have IF set, because this will cause problems vs NMIs.
Therefore, fix up the state after the injection.

In map_vdso(), if a failure occurs during the installation of the VVAR
mappings, the error path attempts to clean up previously allocated mappings
using do_munmap(). However, the cleanup for the VVAR mapping is incorrectly
using image->size (the size of the vDSO text) instead of the actual size
allocated for the VVAR area.
Replace the incorrect do_munmap() image->size parameter with the constant
VDSO_NR_PAGES * PAGE_SIZE. Ensure the unmap size exactly matches the size
used during the vdso_install_vvar_mapping() phase to provide a symmetrical
and complete teardown of the memory region.
