commit 2e4be0d011f21593c6b316806779ba1eba2cd7e0 upstream.

The commit e335bb51cc15 ("x86/unwind: Ensure stack pointer is aligned")
tried to align the stack pointer in show_trace_log_lvl(), otherwise the
"stack &lt; stack_info.end" check can't guarantee that the last read does
not go past the end of the stack.

However, we have the same problem with the initial value of the stack
pointer, it can also be unaligned. So without this patch this trivial
kernel module

	#include &lt;linux/module.h&gt;

	static int init(void)
	{
		asm volatile("sub    $0x4,%rsp");
		dump_stack();
		asm volatile("add    $0x4,%rsp");

		return -EAGAIN;
	}

	module_init(init);
	MODULE_LICENSE("GPL");

crashes the kernel.

<title>x86/topology: Fix erroneous smp_num_siblings on Intel Hybrid platforms</title>

commit edc0a2b5957652f4685ef3516f519f84807087db upstream.

Traditionally, all CPUs in a system have identical numbers of SMT
siblings.  That changes with hybrid processors where some logical CPUs
have a sibling and others have none.

Today, the CPU boot code sets the global variable smp_num_siblings when
every CPU thread is brought up. The last thread to boot will overwrite
it with the number of siblings of *that* thread. That last thread to
boot will "win". If the thread is a Pcore, smp_num_siblings == 2.  If it
is an Ecore, smp_num_siblings == 1.

smp_num_siblings describes if the *system* supports SMT.  It should
specify the maximum number of SMT threads among all cores.

Ensure that smp_num_siblings represents the system-wide maximum number
of siblings by always increasing its value. Never allow it to decrease.

On MeteorLake-P platform, this fixes a problem that the Ecore CPUs are
not updated in any cpu sibling map because the system is treated as an
UP system when probing Ecore CPUs.

Below shows part of the CPU topology information before and after the
fix, for both Pcore and Ecore CPU (cpu0 is Pcore, cpu 12 is Ecore).
...
-/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/topology/package_cpus:000fff
-/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/topology/package_cpus_list:0-11

+/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu12/topology/package_cpus:3fffff
+/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu12/topology/package_cpus_list:0-21

Notice that the "before" 'package_cpus_list' has only one CPU.  This
means that userspace tools like lscpu will see a little laptop like
an 11-socket system:

-Core(s) per socket:  1
-Socket(s):           11
+Core(s) per socket:  16
+Socket(s):           1

This is also expected to make the scheduler do rather wonky things
too.

<title>parisc: Fix flush_dcache_page() for usage from irq context</title>

commit 61e150fb310729c98227a5edf6e4a3619edc3702 upstream.

Since at least kernel 6.1, flush_dcache_page() is called with IRQs
disabled, e.g. from aio_complete().

But the current implementation for flush_dcache_page() on parisc
unintentionally re-enables IRQs, which may lead to deadlocks.

Fix it by using xa_lock_irqsave() and xa_unlock_irqrestore()
for the flush_dcache_mmap_*lock() macros instead.

<title>x86/mm: Avoid incomplete Global INVLPG flushes</title>

commit ce0b15d11ad837fbacc5356941712218e38a0a83 upstream.

The INVLPG instruction is used to invalidate TLB entries for a
specified virtual address.  When PCIDs are enabled, INVLPG is supposed
to invalidate TLB entries for the specified address for both the
current PCID *and* Global entries.  (Note: Only kernel mappings set
Global=1.)

Unfortunately, some INVLPG implementations can leave Global
translations unflushed when PCIDs are enabled.

As a workaround, never enable PCIDs on affected processors.

I expect there to eventually be microcode mitigations to replace this
software workaround.  However, the exact version numbers where that
will happen are not known today.  Once the version numbers are set in
stone, the processor list can be tweaked to only disable PCIDs on
affected processors with affected microcode.

Note: if anyone wants a quick fix that doesn't require patching, just
stick 'nopcid' on your kernel command-line.

<title>m68k: Move signal frame following exception on 68020/030</title>

<content type='text'>
commit b845b574f86dcb6a70dfa698aa87a237b0878d2a upstream.

On 68030/020, an instruction such as, moveml %a2-%a3/%a5,%sp@- may cause
a stack page fault during instruction execution (i.e. not at an
instruction boundary) and produce a format 0xB exception frame.

In this situation, the value of USP will be unreliable.  If a signal is
to be delivered following the exception, this USP value is used to
calculate the location for a signal frame.  This can result in a
corrupted user stack.

The corruption was detected in dash (actually in glibc) where it showed
up as an intermittent "stack smashing detected" message and crash
following signal delivery for SIGCHLD.

It was hard to reproduce that failure because delivery of the signal
raced with the page fault and because the kernel places an unpredictable
gap of up to 7 bytes between the USP and the signal frame.

A format 0xB exception frame can be produced by a bus error or an
address error.  The 68030 Users Manual says that address errors occur
immediately upon detection during instruction prefetch.  The instruction
pipeline allows prefetch to overlap with other instructions, which means
an address error can arise during the execution of a different
instruction.  So it seems likely that this patch may help in the address
error case also.

commit 66b2ca086210732954a7790d63d35542936fc664 upstream.

It was reported that soft dirty tracking doesn't work when using the
Radix MMU.

The tracking is supposed to work by clearing the soft dirty bit for a
mapping and then write protecting the PTE. If/when the page is written
to, a page fault occurs and the soft dirty bit is added back via
pte_mkdirty(). For example in wp_page_reuse():

	entry = maybe_mkwrite(pte_mkdirty(entry), vma);
	if (ptep_set_access_flags(vma, vmf-&gt;address, vmf-&gt;pte, entry, 1))
		update_mmu_cache(vma, vmf-&gt;address, vmf-&gt;pte);

Unfortunately on radix _PAGE_SOFTDIRTY is being dropped by
radix__ptep_set_access_flags(), called from ptep_set_access_flags(),
meaning the soft dirty bit is not set even though the page has been
written to.

Fix it by adding _PAGE_SOFTDIRTY to the set of bits that are able to be
changed in radix__ptep_set_access_flags().

<title>KVM: x86: do not report a vCPU as preempted outside instruction boundaries</title>

commit 6cd88243c7e03845a450795e134b488fc2afb736 upstream.

If a vCPU is outside guest mode and is scheduled out, it might be in the
process of making a memory access.  A problem occurs if another vCPU uses
the PV TLB flush feature during the period when the vCPU is scheduled
out, and a virtual address has already been translated but has not yet
been accessed, because this is equivalent to using a stale TLB entry.

To avoid this, only report a vCPU as preempted if sure that the guest
is at an instruction boundary.  A rescheduling request will be delivered
to the host physical CPU as an external interrupt, so for simplicity
consider any vmexit *not* instruction boundary except for external
interrupts.

It would in principle be okay to report the vCPU as preempted also
if it is sleeping in kvm_vcpu_block(): a TLB flush IPI will incur the
vmentry/vmexit overhead unnecessarily, and optimistic spinning is
also unlikely to succeed.  However, leave it for later because right
now kvm_vcpu_check_block() is doing memory accesses.  Even
though the TLB flush issue only applies to virtual memory address,
it's very much preferrable to be conservative.
