mshv_vtl: Fix vmemmap_shift exceeding MAX_FOLIO_ORDER

2026-04-27T13:30:19+00:00

commit 404cd6bffe17e25e0f94ed2775ffdd6cd10ac3fd upstream.

When registering VTL0 memory via MSHV_ADD_VTL0_MEMORY, the kernel
computes pgmap->vmemmap_shift as the number of trailing zeros in the
OR of start_pfn and last_pfn, intending to use the largest compound
page order both endpoints are aligned to.

However, this value is not clamped to MAX_FOLIO_ORDER, so a
sufficiently aligned range (e.g. physical range
[0x800000000000, 0x800080000000), corresponding to start_pfn=0x800000000
with 35 trailing zeros) can produce a shift larger than what
memremap_pages() accepts, triggering a WARN and returning -EINVAL:

  WARNING: ... memremap_pages+0x512/0x650
  requested folio size unsupported

The MAX_FOLIO_ORDER check was added by
commit 646b67d57589 ("mm/memremap: reject unreasonable folio/compound
page sizes in memremap_pages()").

Fix this by clamping vmemmap_shift to MAX_FOLIO_ORDER so we always
request the largest order the kernel supports, in those cases, rather
than an out-of-range value.

Also fix the error path to propagate the actual error code from
devm_memremap_pages() instead of hard-coding -EFAULT, which was
masking the real -EINVAL return.

mm/userfaultfd: fix hugetlb fault mutex hash calculation

2026-04-22T11:32:23+00:00

commit 0217c7fb4de4a40cee667eb21901f3204effe5ac upstream.

In mfill_atomic_hugetlb(), linear_page_index() is used to calculate the
page index for hugetlb_fault_mutex_hash().  However, linear_page_index()
returns the index in PAGE_SIZE units, while hugetlb_fault_mutex_hash()
expects the index in huge page units.  This mismatch means that different
addresses within the same huge page can produce different hash values,
leading to the use of different mutexes for the same huge page.  This can
cause races between faulting threads, which can corrupt the reservation
map and trigger the BUG_ON in resv_map_release().

Fix this by introducing hugetlb_linear_page_index(), which returns the
page index in huge page granularity, and using it in place of
linear_page_index().

KVM: x86: Use scratch field in MMIO fragment to hold small write values

2026-04-22T11:32:21+00:00

commit 0b16e69d17d8c35c5c9d5918bf596c75a44655d3 upstream.

When exiting to userspace to service an emulated MMIO write, copy the
to-be-written value to a scratch field in the MMIO fragment if the size
of the data payload is 8 bytes or less, i.e. can fit in a single chunk,
instead of pointing the fragment directly at the source value.

This fixes a class of use-after-free bugs that occur when the emulator
initiates a write using an on-stack, local variable as the source, the
write splits a page boundary, *and* both pages are MMIO pages.  Because
KVM's ABI only allows for physically contiguous MMIO requests, accesses
that split MMIO pages are separated into two fragments, and are sent to
userspace one at a time.  When KVM attempts to complete userspace MMIO in
response to KVM_RUN after the first fragment, KVM will detect the second
fragment and generate a second userspace exit, and reference the on-stack
variable.

The issue is most visible if the second KVM_RUN is performed by a separate
task, in which case the stack of the initiating task can show up as truly
freed data.

  ==================================================================

The bug can also be reproduced with a targeted KVM-Unit-Test by hacking
KVM to fill a large on-stack variable in complete_emulated_mmio(), i.e. by
overwrite the data value with garbage.

Limit the use of the scratch fields to 8-byte or smaller accesses, and to
just writes, as larger accesses and reads are not affected thanks to
implementation details in the emulator, but add a sanity check to ensure
those details don't change in the future.  Specifically, KVM never uses
on-stack variables for accesses larger that 8 bytes, e.g. uses an operand
in the emulator context, and *all* reads are buffered through the mem_read
cache.

Note!  Using the scratch field for reads is not only unnecessary, it's
also extremely difficult to handle correctly.  As above, KVM buffers all
reads through the mem_read cache, and heavily relies on that behavior when
re-emulating the instruction after a userspace MMIO read exit.  If a read
splits a page, the first page is NOT an MMIO page, and the second page IS
an MMIO page, then the MMIO fragment needs to point at _just_ the second
chunk of the destination, i.e. its position in the mem_read cache.  Taking
the "obvious" approach of copying the fragment value into the destination
when re-emulating the instruction would clobber the first chunk of the
destination, i.e. would clobber the data that was read from guest memory.

x86: rename and clean up __copy_from_user_inatomic_nocache()

2026-04-22T11:32:21+00:00

commit 5de7bcaadf160c1716b20a263cf8f5b06f658959 upstream.

Similarly to the previous commit, this renames the somewhat confusingly
named function.  But in this case, it was at least less confusing: the
__copy_from_user_inatomic_nocache is indeed copying from user memory,
and it is indeed ok to be used in an atomic context, so it will not warn
about it.

But the previous commit also removed the NTB mis-use of the
__copy_from_user_inatomic_nocache() function, and as a result every
call-site is now _actually_ doing a real user copy.  That means that we
can now do the proper user pointer verification too.

End result: add proper address checking, remove the double underscores,
and change the "nocache" to "nontemporal" to more accurately describe
what this x86-only function actually does.  It might be worth noting
that only the target is non-temporal: the actual user accesses are
normal memory accesses.

Also worth noting is that non-x86 targets (and on older 32-bit x86 CPU's
before XMM2 in the Pentium III) we end up just falling back on a regular
user copy, so nothing can actually depend on the non-temporal semantics,
but that has always been true.

KVM: SEV: Disallow LAUNCH_FINISH if vCPUs are actively being created

2026-04-22T11:32:20+00:00

commit 624bf3440d7214b62c22d698a0a294323f331d5d upstream.

Reject LAUNCH_FINISH for SEV-ES and SNP VMs if KVM is actively creating
one or more vCPUs, as KVM needs to process and encrypt each vCPU's VMSA.
Letting userspace create vCPUs while LAUNCH_FINISH is in-progress is
"fine", at least in the current code base, as kvm_for_each_vcpu() operates
on online_vcpus, LAUNCH_FINISH (all SEV+ sub-ioctls) holds kvm->mutex, and
fully onlining a vCPU in kvm_vm_ioctl_create_vcpu() is done under
kvm->mutex.  I.e. there's no difference between an in-progress vCPU and a
vCPU that is created entirely after LAUNCH_FINISH.

However, given that concurrent LAUNCH_FINISH and vCPU creation can't
possibly work (for any reasonable definition of "work"), since userspace
can't guarantee whether a particular vCPU will be encrypted or not,
disallow the combination as a hardening measure, to reduce the probability
of introducing bugs in the future, and to avoid having to reason about the
safety of future changes related to LAUNCH_FINISH.
