a494aef23dfc ("PCI: hv: Replace retarget_msi_interrupt_params with hyperv_pcpu_input_arg")
2c6ba4216844 ("PCI: hv: Enable PCI pass-thru devices in Confidential VMs")

update the Hyper-V virtual PCI driver to use the hyperv_pcpu_input_arg
because that memory will be correctly marked as decrypted or encrypted
for all VM types (CoCo or normal). But problems ensue when CPUs in the
VM go online or offline after virtual PCI devices have been configured.

When a CPU is brought online, the hyperv_pcpu_input_arg for that CPU is
initialized by hv_cpu_init() running under state CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_DYN.
But this state occurs after state CPUHP_AP_IRQ_AFFINITY_ONLINE, which
may call the virtual PCI driver and fault trying to use the as yet
uninitialized hyperv_pcpu_input_arg. A similar problem occurs in a CoCo
VM if the MMIO read and write hypercalls are used from state
CPUHP_AP_IRQ_AFFINITY_ONLINE.

When a CPU is taken offline, IRQs may be reassigned in state
CPUHP_TEARDOWN_CPU. Again, the virtual PCI driver may fault trying to
use the hyperv_pcpu_input_arg that has already been freed by a
higher state.

Fix the onlining problem by adding state CPUHP_AP_HYPERV_ONLINE
immediately after CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE (similar to CPUHP_AP_KVM_ONLINE)
and before CPUHP_AP_IRQ_AFFINITY_ONLINE. Use this new state for
Hyper-V initialization so that hyperv_pcpu_input_arg is allocated
early enough.

Fix the offlining problem by not freeing hyperv_pcpu_input_arg when
a CPU goes offline. Retain the allocated memory, and reuse it if
the CPU comes back online later.

<title>Drivers: hv: vmbus: Fix vmbus_wait_for_unload() to scan present CPUs</title>

<content type='text'>
vmbus_wait_for_unload() may be called in the panic path after other
CPUs are stopped. vmbus_wait_for_unload() currently loops through
online CPUs looking for the UNLOAD response message. But the values of
CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE and crash_kexec_post_notifiers affect the path used
to stop the other CPUs, and in one of the paths the stopped CPUs
are removed from cpu_online_mask. This removal happens in both
x86/x64 and arm64 architectures. In such a case, vmbus_wait_for_unload()
only checks the panic'ing CPU, and misses the UNLOAD response message
except when the panic'ing CPU is CPU 0. vmbus_wait_for_unload()
eventually times out, but only after waiting 100 seconds.

Fix this by looping through *present* CPUs in vmbus_wait_for_unload().
The cpu_present_mask is not modified by stopping the other CPUs in the
panic path, nor should it be.

Also, in a CoCo VM the synic_message_page is not allocated in
hv_synic_alloc(), but is set and cleared in hv_synic_enable_regs()
and hv_synic_disable_regs() such that it is set only when the CPU is
online.  If not all present CPUs are online when vmbus_wait_for_unload()
is called, the synic_message_page might be NULL. Add a check for this.

Commit 572086325ce9 ("Drivers: hv: vmbus: Cleanup synic memory free path")
says "Any memory allocations that succeeded will be freed when the caller
cleans up by calling hv_synic_free()", but if the get_zeroed_page() in
hv_synic_alloc() fails, currently hv_synic_free() is not really called
in vmbus_bus_init(), consequently there will be a memory leak, e.g.
hv_context.hv_numa_map is not freed in the error path. Fix this by
updating the goto labels.

Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain:
 "This only does a few sysctl moves from the kernel/sysctl.c file, the
  rest of the work has been put towards deprecating two API calls which
  incur recursion and prevent us from simplifying the registration
  process / saving memory per move. Most of the changes have been
  soaking on linux-next since v6.3-rc3.

  I've slowed down the kernel/sysctl.c moves due to Matthew Wilcox's
  feedback that we should see if we could *save* memory with these moves
  instead of incurring more memory. We currently incur more memory since
  when we move a syctl from kernel/sysclt.c out to its own file we end
  up having to add a new empty sysctl used to register it. To achieve
  saving memory we want to allow syctls to be passed without requiring
  the end element being empty, and just have our registration process
  rely on ARRAY_SIZE(). Without this, supporting both styles of sysctls
  would make the sysctl registration pretty brittle, hard to read and
  maintain as can be seen from Meng Tang's efforts to do just this [0].
  Fortunately, in order to use ARRAY_SIZE() for all sysctl registrations
  also implies doing the work to deprecate two API calls which use
  recursion in order to support sysctl declarations with subdirectories.

  And so during this development cycle quite a bit of effort went into
  this deprecation effort. I've annotated the following two APIs are
  deprecated and in few kernel releases we should be good to remove
  them:

   - register_sysctl_table()
   - register_sysctl_paths()

  During this merge window we should be able to deprecate and unexport
  register_sysctl_paths(), we can probably do that towards the end of
  this merge window.

  Deprecating register_sysctl_table() will take a bit more time but this
  pull request goes with a few example of how to do this.

  As it turns out each of the conversions to move away from either of
  these two API calls *also* saves memory. And so long term, all these
  changes *will* prove to have saved a bit of memory on boot.

  The way I see it then is if remove a user of one deprecated call, it
  gives us enough savings to move one kernel/sysctl.c out from the
  generic arrays as we end up with about the same amount of bytes.

  Since deprecating register_sysctl_table() and register_sysctl_paths()
  does not require maintainer coordination except the final unexport
  you'll see quite a bit of these changes from other pull requests, I've
  just kept the stragglers after rc3"

Pull x86 SEV updates from Borislav Petkov:

 - Add the necessary glue so that the kernel can run as a confidential
   SEV-SNP vTOM guest on Hyper-V. A vTOM guest basically splits the
   address space in two parts: encrypted and unencrypted. The use case
   being running unmodified guests on the Hyper-V confidential computing
   hypervisor

 - Double-buffer messages between the guest and the hardware PSP device
   so that no partial buffers are copied back'n'forth and thus potential
   message integrity and leak attacks are possible

 - Name the return value the sev-guest driver returns when the hw PSP
   device hasn't been called, explicitly

 - Cleanups

<title>Drivers: hv: move panic report code from vmbus to hv early init code</title>

<id>9c318a1d9b5000c77527011f158a75c5483510f5</id>
<content type='text'>
The panic reporting code was added in commit 81b18bce48af
("Drivers: HV: Send one page worth of kmsg dump over Hyper-V during panic")

It was added to the vmbus driver. The panic reporting has no dependence
on vmbus, and can be enabled at an earlier boot time when Hyper-V is
initialized.

This patch moves the panic reporting code out of vmbus. There is no
functionality changes. During moving, also refactored some cleanup
functions into hv_kmsg_dump_unregister().

The post_msg_page was introduced in 2014 in

Commit 68bb7bfb7985 ("X86/Hyper-V: Enable IPI enlightenments") introduced
the hyperv_pcpu_input_arg in 2018, which can be used in hv_post_message().

Remove post_msg_page to simplify the code a little bit.
