This finally resolve crash if loaded under qemu + haxm. Haitao Shan pointed
out that the reason of that crash is that NX bit get set for page tables.
It seems we missed checking if _PAGE_NX is supported in kaiser_add_user_map

The crash part of this problem may be solved with the following patch

The crash part of this problem may be solved with the following patch
(thanks to Hugh for the hint). There is still another problem, though -
with this patch applied, the qemu session aborts with "VCPU Shutdown
request", whatever that means.

<title>x86/decoder: Add new TEST instruction pattern</title>

commit 12a78d43de767eaf8fb272facb7a7b6f2dc6a9df upstream.

The kbuild test robot reported this build warning:

  Warning: arch/x86/tools/test_get_len found difference at &lt;jump_table&gt;:ffffffff8103dd2c

  Warning: ffffffff8103dd82: f6 09 d8 testb $0xd8,(%rcx)
  Warning: objdump says 3 bytes, but insn_get_length() says 2
  Warning: decoded and checked 1569014 instructions with 1 warnings

This sequence seems to be a new instruction not in the opcode map in the Intel SDM.

The instruction sequence is "F6 09 d8", means Group3(F6), MOD(00)REG(001)RM(001), and 0xd8.
Intel SDM vol2 A.4 Table A-6 said the table index in the group is "Encoding of Bits 5,4,3 of
the ModR/M Byte (bits 2,1,0 in parenthesis)"

In that table, opcodes listed by the index REG bits as:

  000         001       010 011  100        101        110         111
 TEST Ib/Iz,(undefined),NOT,NEG,MUL AL/rAX,IMUL AL/rAX,DIV AL/rAX,IDIV AL/rAX

So, it seems TEST Ib is assigned to 001.

Add the new pattern.

<title>KVM: SVM: obey guest PAT</title>

commit 15038e14724799b8c205beb5f20f9e54896013c3 upstream.

For many years some users of assigned devices have reported worse
performance on AMD processors with NPT than on AMD without NPT,
Intel or bare metal.

The reason turned out to be that SVM is discarding the guest PAT
setting and uses the default (PA0=PA4=WB, PA1=PA5=WT, PA2=PA6=UC-,
PA3=UC).  The guest might be using a different setting, and
especially might want write combining but isn't getting it
(instead getting slow UC or UC- accesses).

Thanks a lot to geoff@hostfission.com for noticing the relation
to the g_pat setting.  The patch has been tested also by a bunch
of people on VFIO users forums.

<title>KVM: vmx: Inject #GP on invalid PAT CR</title>

commit 4566654bb9be9e8864df417bb72ceee5136b6a6a upstream.

Guest which sets the PAT CR to invalid value should get a #GP.  Currently, if
vmx supports loading PAT CR during entry, then the value is not checked.  This
patch makes the required check in that case.

commit b192571d1ae375e0bbe0aa3ccfa1a3c3704454b9 upstream.

Current buffer size of 64 is too small. objdump shows that there are
instructions which would require up to 75 bytes buffer (with current
formating). 128 bytes "ought to be enough for anybody".

Also replaces 8 spaces with a single tab to reduce the memory footprint.

Fixes the following KASAN finding:

<title>kprobes, x86/alternatives: Use text_mutex to protect smp_alt_modules</title>

commit e846d13958066828a9483d862cc8370a72fadbb6 upstream.

We use alternatives_text_reserved() to check if the address is in
the fixed pieces of alternative reserved, but the problem is that
we don't hold the smp_alt mutex when call this function. So the list
traversal may encounter a deleted list_head if another path is doing
alternatives_smp_module_del().

One solution is that we can hold smp_alt mutex before call this
function, but the difficult point is that the callers of this
functions, arch_prepare_kprobe() and arch_prepare_optimized_kprobe(),
are called inside the text_mutex. So we must hold smp_alt mutex
before we go into these arch dependent code. But we can't now,
the smp_alt mutex is the arch dependent part, only x86 has it.
Maybe we can export another arch dependent callback to solve this.

But there is a simpler way to handle this problem. We can reuse the
text_mutex to protect smp_alt_modules instead of using another mutex.
And all the arch dependent checks of kprobes are inside the text_mutex,
so it's safe now.

<title>x86/smp: Don't ever patch back to UP if we unplug cpus</title>

commit 816afe4ff98ee10b1d30fd66361be132a0a5cee6 upstream.

We still patch SMP instructions to UP variants if we boot with a
single CPU, but not at any other time.  In particular, not if we
unplug CPUs to return to a single cpu.

Paul McKenney points out:

 mean offline overhead is 6251/48=130.2 milliseconds.

 If I remove the alternatives_smp_switch() from the offline
 path [...] the mean offline overhead is 550/42=13.1 milliseconds

Basically, we're never going to get those 120ms back, and the
code is pretty messy.

We get rid of:

 1) The "smp-alt-once" boot option. It's actually "smp-alt-boot", the
    documentation is wrong. It's now the default.

 2) The skip_smp_alternatives flag used by suspend.

 3) arch_disable_nonboot_cpus_begin() and arch_disable_nonboot_cpus_end()
    which were only used to set this one flag.
