[ Upstream commit 0f88130e8a6fd185b0aeb5d8e286083735f2585a ]

Normally __swp_entry_to_pte() is never called with a value translating
to a valid PTE. The only known exception is pte_swap_tests(), resulting
in a WARN splat in Xen PV guests, as __pte_to_swp_entry() did
translate the PFN of the valid PTE to a guest local PFN, while
__swp_entry_to_pte() doesn't do the opposite translation.

Fix that by using __pte() in __swp_entry_to_pte() instead of open
coding the native variant of it.

For correctness do the similar conversion for __swp_entry_to_pmd().

<title>perf/ibs: Fix interface via core pmu events</title>

[ Upstream commit 2fad201fe38ff9a692acedb1990ece2c52a29f95 ]

Although, IBS pmus can be invoked via their own interface, indirect
IBS invocation via core pmu events is also supported with fixed set
of events: cpu-cycles:p, r076:p (same as cpu-cycles:p) and r0C1:p
(micro-ops) for user convenience.

This indirect IBS invocation is broken since commit 66d258c5b048
("perf/core: Optimize perf_init_event()"), which added RAW pmu under
'pmu_idr' list and thus if event_init() fails with RAW pmu, it started
returning error instead of trying other pmus.

Forward precise events from core pmu to IBS by overwriting 'type' and
'config' in the kernel copy of perf_event_attr. Overwriting will cause
perf_init_event() to retry with updated 'type' and 'config', which will
automatically forward event to IBS pmu.

Without patch:
  $ sudo ./perf record -C 0 -e r076:p -- sleep 1
  Error:
  The r076:p event is not supported.

With patch:
  $ sudo ./perf record -C 0 -e r076:p -- sleep 1

<title>x86/mtrr: Support setting MTRR state for software defined MTRRs</title>

[ Upstream commit 29055dc74287467bd7a053d60b4afe753832960d ]

When running virtualized, MTRR access can be reduced (e.g. in Xen PV
guests or when running as a SEV-SNP guest under Hyper-V). Typically, the
hypervisor will not advertize the MTRR feature in CPUID data, resulting
in no MTRR memory type information being available for the kernel.

This has turned out to result in problems (Link tags below):

- Hyper-V SEV-SNP guests using uncached mappings where they shouldn't
- Xen PV dom0 mapping memory as WB which should be UC- instead

Solve those problems by allowing an MTRR static state override,
overwriting the empty state used today. In case such a state has been
set, don't call get_mtrr_state() in mtrr_bp_init().

The set state will only be used by mtrr_type_lookup(), as in all other
cases mtrr_enabled() is being checked, which will return false. Accept
the overwrite call only for selected cases when running as a guest.
Disable X86_FEATURE_MTRR in order to avoid any MTRR modifications by
just refusing them.

<content type='text'>
commit d7893093a7417527c0d73c9832244e65c9d0114f upstream.

TLDR: It's a mess.

When kexec() is executed on a system with offline CPUs, which are parked in
mwait_play_dead() it can end up in a triple fault during the bootup of the
kexec kernel or cause hard to diagnose data corruption.

The reason is that kexec() eventually overwrites the previous kernel's text,
page tables, data and stack. If it writes to the cache line which is
monitored by a previously offlined CPU, MWAIT resumes execution and ends
up executing the wrong text, dereferencing overwritten page tables or
corrupting the kexec kernels data.

Cure this by bringing the offlined CPUs out of MWAIT into HLT.

Write to the monitored cache line of each offline CPU, which makes MWAIT
resume execution. The written control word tells the offlined CPUs to issue
HLT, which does not have the MWAIT problem.

That does not help, if a stray NMI, MCE or SMI hits the offlined CPUs as
those make it come out of HLT.

A follow up change will put them into INIT, which protects at least against
NMI and SMI.

Cure this by bringing the offlined CPUs out of MWAIT into HLT.

Write to the monitored cache line of each offline CPU, which makes MWAIT
resume execution. The written control word tells the offlined CPUs to issue
HLT, which does not have the MWAIT problem.

That does not help, if a stray NMI, MCE or SMI hits the offlined CPUs as
those make it come out of HLT.

A follow up change will put them into INIT, which protects at least against
NMI and SMI.

<title>x86/smp: Make stop_other_cpus() more robust</title>

commit 1f5e7eb7868e42227ac426c96d437117e6e06e8e upstream.

Tony reported intermittent lockups on poweroff. His analysis identified the
wbinvd() in stop_this_cpu() as the culprit. This was added to ensure that
on SME enabled machines a kexec() does not leave any stale data in the
caches when switching from encrypted to non-encrypted mode or vice versa.

That wbinvd() is conditional on the SME feature bit which is read directly
from CPUID. But that readout does not check whether the CPUID leaf is
available or not. If it's not available the CPU will return the value of
the highest supported leaf instead. Depending on the content the "SME" bit
might be set or not.

That's incorrect but harmless. Making the CPUID readout conditional makes
the observed hangs go away, but it does not fix the underlying problem:

CPU0					CPU1

 stop_other_cpus()
   send_IPIs(REBOOT);			stop_this_cpu()
   while (num_online_cpus() &gt; 1);         set_online(false);
   proceed... -&gt; hang
				          wbinvd()

WBINVD is an expensive operation and if multiple CPUs issue it at the same
time the resulting delays are even larger.

But CPU0 already observed num_online_cpus() going down to 1 and proceeds
which causes the system to hang.

This issue exists independent of WBINVD, but the delays caused by WBINVD
make it more prominent.

Make this more robust by adding a cpumask which is initialized to the
online CPU mask before sending the IPIs and CPUs clear their bit in
stop_this_cpu() after the WBINVD completed. Check for that cpumask to
become empty in stop_other_cpus() instead of watching num_online_cpus().

The cpumask cannot plug all holes either, but it's better than a raw
counter and allows to restrict the NMI fallback IPI to be sent only the
CPUs which have not reported within the timeout window.

<title>x86/unwind/orc: Add ELF section with ORC version identifier</title>

[ Upstream commit b9f174c811e3ae4ae8959dc57e6adb9990e913f4 ]

Commits ffb1b4a41016 ("x86/unwind/orc: Add 'signal' field to ORC
metadata") and fb799447ae29 ("x86,objtool: Split UNWIND_HINT_EMPTY in
two") changed the ORC format. Although ORC is internal to the kernel,
it's the only way for external tools to get reliable kernel stack traces
on x86-64. In particular, the drgn debugger [1] uses ORC for stack
unwinding, and these format changes broke it [2]. As the drgn
maintainer, I don't care how often or how much the kernel changes the
ORC format as long as I have a way to detect the change.

It suffices to store a version identifier in the vmlinux and kernel
module ELF files (to use when parsing ORC sections from ELF), and in
kernel memory (to use when parsing ORC from a core dump+symbol table).
Rather than hard-coding a version number that needs to be manually
bumped, Peterz suggested hashing the definitions from orc_types.h. If
there is a format change that isn't caught by this, the hashing script
can be updated.

This patch adds an .orc_header allocated ELF section containing the
20-byte hash to vmlinux and kernel modules, along with the corresponding
__start_orc_header and __stop_orc_header symbols in vmlinux.

<title>perf/x86/intel/ds: Flush PEBS DS when changing PEBS_DATA_CFG</title>

[ Upstream commit b752ea0c28e3f7f0aaaad6abf84f735eebc37a60 ]

Several similar kernel warnings can be triggered,

  [56605.607840] CPU0 PEBS record size 0, expected 32, config 0 cpuc-&gt;record_size=208

when the below commands are running in parallel for a while on SPR.

  while true;
  do
	perf record --no-buildid -a --intr-regs=AX  \
		    -e cpu/event=0xd0,umask=0x81/pp \
		    -c 10003 -o /dev/null ./triad;
  done &amp;

  while true;
  do
	perf record -o /tmp/out -W -d \
		    -e '{ld_blocks.store_forward:period=1000000, \
                         MEM_TRANS_RETIRED.LOAD_LATENCY:u:precise=2:ldlat=4}' \
		    -c 1037 ./triad;
  done

The triad program is just the generation of loads/stores.

The warnings are triggered when an unexpected PEBS record (with a
different config and size) is found.

A system-wide PEBS event with the large PEBS config may be enabled
during a context switch. Some PEBS records for the system-wide PEBS
may be generated while the old task is sched out but the new one
hasn't been sched in yet. When the new task is sched in, the
cpuc-&gt;pebs_record_size may be updated for the per-task PEBS events. So
the existing system-wide PEBS records have a different size from the
later PEBS records.

The PEBS buffer should be flushed right before the hardware is
reprogrammed. The new size and threshold should be updated after the
old buffer has been flushed.
