<content type='text'>
The hypervisor can enable various new features (SEV_FEATURES[1:63]) and start a
SNP guest. Some of these features need guest side implementation. If any of
these features are enabled without it, the behavior of the SNP guest will be
undefined.  It may fail booting in a non-obvious way making it difficult to
debug.

Instead of allowing the guest to continue and have it fail randomly later,
detect this early and fail gracefully.

The SEV_STATUS MSR indicates features which the hypervisor has enabled.  While
booting, SNP guests should ascertain that all the enabled features have guest
side implementation. In case a feature is not implemented in the guest, the
guest terminates booting with GHCB protocol Non-Automatic Exit(NAE) termination
request event, see "SEV-ES Guest-Hypervisor Communication Block Standardization"
document (currently at https://developer.amd.com/wp-content/resources/56421.pdf),
section "Termination Request".

Populate SW_EXITINFO2 with mask of unsupported features that the hypervisor can
easily report to the user.

More details in the AMD64 APM Vol 2, Section "SEV_STATUS MSR".

  [ bp:
    - Massage.
    - Move snp_check_features() call to C code.
    Note: the CC:stable@ aspect here is to be able to protect older, stable
    kernels when running on newer hypervisors. Or not "running" but fail
    reliably and in a well-defined manner instead of randomly. ]

Add the mask KVM_MSR_FILTER_RANGE_VALID_MASK for the flags in the
struct kvm_msr_filter_range.  This simplifies checks that validate
these flags, and makes it easier to introduce new flags in the future.

<title>KVM: x86: Disallow the use of KVM_MSR_FILTER_DEFAULT_ALLOW in the kernel</title>

<id>be83794210e7020fef98596f4513aafbed659cd1</id>
<content type='text'>
Protect the kernel from using the flag KVM_MSR_FILTER_DEFAULT_ALLOW.
Its value is 0, and using it incorrectly could have unintended
consequences. E.g. prevent someone in the kernel from writing something
like this.

if (filter.flags &amp; KVM_MSR_FILTER_DEFAULT_ALLOW)
        &lt;allow the MSR&gt;

and getting confused when it doesn't work.

It would be more ideal to remove this flag altogether, but userspace
may already be using it, so protecting the kernel is all that can
reasonably be done at this point.

Pull uapi flexible array update from Gustavo Silva:
 "A treewide patch that replaces zero-length arrays with flexible-array
  members in UAPI. This has been baking in linux-next for 5 weeks now.

  '-fstrict-flex-arrays=3' is coming and we need to land these changes
  to prevent issues like these in the short future:

    fs/minix/dir.c:337:3: warning: 'strcpy' will always overflow; destination buffer has size 0, but the source string has length 2 (including NUL byte) [-Wfortify-source]
		strcpy(de3-&gt;name, ".");
		^

  Since these are all [0] to [] changes, the risk to UAPI is nearly
  zero. If this breaks anything, we can use a union with a new member
  name"

KVM/s390, KVM/x86 and common infrastructure changes for 5.20

x86:

* Permit guests to ignore single-bit ECC errors

* Fix races in gfn-&gt;pfn cache refresh; do not pin pages tracked by the cache

* Intel IPI virtualization

* Allow getting/setting pending triple fault with KVM_GET/SET_VCPU_EVENTS

* PEBS virtualization

* Simplify PMU emulation by just using PERF_TYPE_RAW events

* More accurate event reinjection on SVM (avoid retrying instructions)

* Allow getting/setting the state of the speaker port data bit

* Refuse starting the kvm-intel module if VM-Entry/VM-Exit controls are inconsistent

* "Notify" VM exit (detect microarchitectural hangs) for Intel

* Cleanups for MCE MSR emulation

s390:

* add an interface to provide a hypervisor dump for secure guests

* improve selftests to use TAP interface

* enable interpretive execution of zPCI instructions (for PCI passthrough)

* First part of deferred teardown

* CPU Topology

* PV attestation

* Minor fixes

Generic:

* new selftests API using struct kvm_vcpu instead of a (vm, id) tuple

x86:

* Use try_cmpxchg64 instead of cmpxchg64

* Bugfixes

* Ignore benign host accesses to PMU MSRs when PMU is disabled

* Allow disabling KVM's "MONITOR/MWAIT are NOPs!" behavior

* x86/MMU: Allow NX huge pages to be disabled on a per-vm basis

* Port eager page splitting to shadow MMU as well

* Enable CMCI capability by default and handle injected UCNA errors

* Expose pid of vcpu threads in debugfs

* x2AVIC support for AMD

* cleanup PIO emulation

* Fixes for LLDT/LTR emulation

* Don't require refcounted "struct page" to create huge SPTEs

x86 cleanups:

* Use separate namespaces for guest PTEs and shadow PTEs bitmasks

* PIO emulation

* Reorganize rmap API, mostly around rmap destruction

* Do not workaround very old KVM bugs for L0 that runs with nesting enabled

* new selftests API for CPUID

<title>KVM: x86: Tweak name of MONITOR/MWAIT #UD quirk to make it #UD specific</title>

<id>43bb9e000ea4c62154c01844771fea25b8b83520</id>
<content type='text'>
Add a "UD" clause to KVM_X86_QUIRK_MWAIT_NEVER_FAULTS to make it clear
that the quirk only controls the #UD behavior of MONITOR/MWAIT.  KVM
doesn't currently enforce fault checks when MONITOR/MWAIT are supported,
but that could change in the future.  SVM also has a virtualization hole
in that it checks all faults before intercepts, and so "never faults" is
already a lie when running on SVM.
