<title>MIPS: Malta: Fix keyboard resource preventing i8042 driver from registering</title>

commit bf5570590a981d0659d0808d2d4bcda21b27a2a5 upstream.

MIPS Malta platform code registers the PCI southbridge legacy port I/O
PS/2 keyboard range as a standard resource marked as busy.  It prevents
the i8042 driver from registering as it fails to claim the resource in
a call to i8042_platform_init().  Consequently PS/2 keyboard and mouse
devices cannot be used with this platform.

Fix the issue by removing the busy marker from the standard reservation,
making the driver register successfully:

  serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60,0x64 irq 1
  serio: i8042 AUX port at 0x60,0x64 irq 12

and the resource show up as expected among the legacy devices:

  00000000-00ffffff : MSC PCI I/O
    00000000-0000001f : dma1
    00000020-00000021 : pic1
    00000040-0000005f : timer
    00000060-0000006f : keyboard
      00000060-0000006f : i8042
    00000070-00000077 : rtc0
    00000080-0000008f : dma page reg
    000000a0-000000a1 : pic2
    000000c0-000000df : dma2
    [...]

If the i8042 driver has not been configured, then the standard resource
will remain there preventing any conflicting dynamic assignment of this
PCI port I/O address range.

<title>arm64, mm: avoid always making PTE dirty in pte_mkwrite()</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 143937ca51cc6ae2fccc61a1cb916abb24cd34f5 ]

Current pte_mkwrite_novma() makes PTE dirty unconditionally.  This may
mark some pages that are never written dirty wrongly.  For example,
do_swap_page() may map the exclusive pages with writable and clean PTEs
if the VMA is writable and the page fault is for read access.
However, current pte_mkwrite_novma() implementation always dirties the
PTE.  This may cause unnecessary disk writing if the pages are
never written before being reclaimed.

So, change pte_mkwrite_novma() to clear the PTE_RDONLY bit only if the
PTE_DIRTY bit is set to make it possible to make the PTE writable and
clean.

The current behavior was introduced in commit 73e86cb03cf2 ("arm64:
Move PTE_RDONLY bit handling out of set_pte_at()").  Before that,
pte_mkwrite() only sets the PTE_WRITE bit, while set_pte_at() only
clears the PTE_RDONLY bit if both the PTE_WRITE and the PTE_DIRTY bits
are set.

To test the performance impact of the patch, on an arm64 server
machine, run 16 redis-server processes on socket 1 and 16
memtier_benchmark processes on socket 0 with mostly get
transactions (that is, redis-server will mostly read memory only).
The memory footprint of redis-server is larger than the available
memory, so swap out/in will be triggered.  Test results show that the
patch can avoid most swapping out because the pages are mostly clean.
And the benchmark throughput improves ~23.9% in the test.

The function signatures of the m68k-optimized implementations of the

variants.

Fix this by changing all non-pointer inputs and outputs to "unsigned

<title>KVM: x86: Don't (re)check L1 intercepts when completing userspace I/O</title>

[ Upstream commit e750f85391286a4c8100275516973324b621a269 ]

When completing emulation of instruction that generated a userspace exit
for I/O, don't recheck L1 intercepts as KVM has already finished that
phase of instruction execution, i.e. has already committed to allowing L2
to perform I/O.  If L1 (or host userspace) modifies the I/O permission
bitmaps during the exit to userspace,  KVM will treat the access as being
intercepted despite already having emulated the I/O access.

Pivot on EMULTYPE_NO_DECODE to detect that KVM is completing emulation.
Of the three users of EMULTYPE_NO_DECODE, only complete_emulated_io() (the
intended "recipient") can reach the code in question.  gp_interception()'s
use is mutually exclusive with is_guest_mode(), and
complete_emulated_insn_gp() unconditionally pairs EMULTYPE_NO_DECODE with
EMULTYPE_SKIP.

The bad behavior was detected by a syzkaller program that toggles port I/O
interception during the userspace I/O exit, ultimately resulting in a WARN
on vcpu-&gt;arch.pio.count being non-zero due to KVM no completing emulation
of the I/O instruction.

intercepted despite already having emulated the I/O access.

Pivot on EMULTYPE_NO_DECODE to detect that KVM is completing emulation.
Of the three users of EMULTYPE_NO_DECODE, only complete_emulated_io() (the
intended "recipient") can reach the code in question.  gp_interception()'s
use is mutually exclusive with is_guest_mode(), and
complete_emulated_insn_gp() unconditionally pairs EMULTYPE_NO_DECODE with
EMULTYPE_SKIP.

The bad behavior was detected by a syzkaller program that toggles port I/O
interception during the userspace I/O exit, ultimately resulting in a WARN
on vcpu-&gt;arch.pio.count being non-zero due to KVM no completing emulation
of the I/O instruction.

commit 27b1fd62012dfe9d3eb8ecde344d7aa673695ecf upstream.

Filter out the register forms of 0F 01 when determining whether or not to
emulate in response to a potential UMIP violation #GP, as SGDT and SIDT only
accept memory operands.  The register variants of 0F 01 are used to encode
instructions for things like VMX and SGX, i.e. not checking the Mod field
would cause the kernel to incorrectly emulate on #GP, e.g. due to a CPL
violation on VMLAUNCH.

<title>x86/umip: Check that the instruction opcode is at least two bytes</title>

commit 32278c677947ae2f042c9535674a7fff9a245dd3 upstream.

When checking for a potential UMIP violation on #GP, verify the decoder found
at least two opcode bytes to avoid false positives when the kernel encounters
an unknown instruction that starts with 0f.  Because the array of opcode.bytes
is zero-initialized by insn_init(), peeking at bytes[1] will misinterpret
garbage as a potential SLDT or STR instruction, and can incorrectly trigger
emulation.

E.g. if a VPALIGNR instruction

   62 83 c5 05 0f 08 ff     vpalignr xmm17{k5},xmm23,XMMWORD PTR [r8],0xff

hits a #GP, the kernel emulates it as STR and squashes the #GP (and corrupts
the userspace code stream).

Arguably the check should look for exactly two bytes, but no three byte
opcodes use '0f 00 xx' or '0f 01 xx' as an escape, i.e. it should be
impossible to get a false positive if the first two opcode bytes match '0f 00'
or '0f 01'.  Go with a more conservative check with respect to the existing
code to minimize the chances of breaking userspace, e.g. due to decoder
weirdness.

commit 302c04110f0ce70d25add2496b521132548cd408 upstream.

Once of_device_register() failed, we should call put_device() to
decrement reference count for cleanup. Or it could cause memory leak.
So fix this by calling put_device(), then the name can be freed in
kobject_cleanup().

Calling path: of_device_register() -&gt; of_device_add() -&gt; device_add().
As comment of device_add() says, 'if device_add() succeeds, you should
call device_del() when you want to get rid of it. If device_add() has
not succeeded, use only put_device() to drop the reference count'.

<title>sparc64: fix hugetlb for sun4u</title>

commit 6fd44a481b3c6111e4801cec964627791d0f3ec5 upstream.

An attempt to exercise sparc hugetlb code in a sun4u-based guest
running under qemu results in the guest hanging due to being stuck
in a trap loop. This is due to invalid hugetlb TTEs being installed
that do not have the expected _PAGE_PMD_HUGE and page size bits set.
Although the breakage has gone apparently unnoticed for several years,
fix it now so there is the option to exercise sparc hugetlb code under
qemu. This can be useful because sun4v support in qemu does not support
linux guests currently and sun4v-based hardware resources may not be
readily available.

Fix tested with a 6.15.2 and 6.16-rc6 kernels by running libhugetlbfs
tests on a qemu guest running Debian 13.
