commit c23b2e6fc4ca346018618266bcabd335c0a8a49e upstream.

When using the nospec API, it should be taken into account that:

"...if the CPU speculates past the bounds check then
 * array_index_nospec() will clamp the index within the range of [0,
 * size)."

The above is part of the header for macro array_index_nospec() in
linux/nospec.h

Now, in this particular case, if intid evaluates to exactly VGIC_MAX_SPI
or to exaclty VGIC_MAX_PRIVATE, the array_index_nospec() macro ends up
returning VGIC_MAX_SPI - 1 or VGIC_MAX_PRIVATE - 1 respectively, instead
of VGIC_MAX_SPI or VGIC_MAX_PRIVATE, which, based on the original logic:

	/* SGIs and PPIs */
	if (intid &lt;= VGIC_MAX_PRIVATE)
 		return &amp;vcpu-&gt;arch.vgic_cpu.private_irqs[intid];

 	/* SPIs */
	if (intid &lt;= VGIC_MAX_SPI)
 		return &amp;kvm-&gt;arch.vgic.spis[intid - VGIC_NR_PRIVATE_IRQS];

are valid values for intid.

Fix this by calling array_index_nospec() macro with VGIC_MAX_PRIVATE + 1
and VGIC_MAX_SPI + 1 as arguments for its parameter size.

<title>KVM: arm/arm64: Fix VMID alloc race by reverting to lock-less</title>

<content type='text'>
commit fb544d1ca65a89f7a3895f7531221ceeed74ada7 upstream.

We recently addressed a VMID generation race by introducing a read/write
lock around accesses and updates to the vmid generation values.

However, kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run() also calls need_new_vmid_gen() but
does so without taking the read lock.

As far as I can tell, this can lead to the same kind of race:

  VM 0, VCPU 0			VM 0, VCPU 1
  ------------			------------
  update_vttbr (vmid 254)
  				update_vttbr (vmid 1) // roll over
				read_lock(kvm_vmid_lock);
				force_vm_exit()
  local_irq_disable
  need_new_vmid_gen == false //because vmid gen matches

  enter_guest (vmid 254)
  				kvm_arch.vttbr = &lt;PGD&gt;:&lt;VMID 1&gt;
				read_unlock(kvm_vmid_lock);

  				enter_guest (vmid 1)

Which results in running two VCPUs in the same VM with different VMIDs
and (even worse) other VCPUs from other VMs could now allocate clashing
VMID 254 from the new generation as long as VCPU 0 is not exiting.

Attempt to solve this by making sure vttbr is updated before another CPU
can observe the updated VMID generation.

commit 60c3ab30d8c2ff3a52606df03f05af2aae07dc6b upstream.

When restoring the active state from userspace, we don't know which CPU
was the source for the active state, and this is not architecturally
exposed in any of the register state.

Set the active_source to 0 in this case.  In the future, we can expand
on this and exposse the information as additional information to
userspace for GICv2 if anyone cares.

commit 2e2f6c3c0b08eed3fcf7de3c7684c940451bdeb1 upstream.

To change the active state of an MMIO, halt is requested for all vcpus of
the affected guest before modifying the IRQ state. This is done by calling
cond_resched_lock() in vgic_mmio_change_active(). However interrupts are
disabled at this point and we cannot reschedule a vcpu.

We actually don't need any of this, as kvm_arm_halt_guest ensures that
all the other vcpus are out of the guest. Let's just drop that useless
code.

commit 107352a24900fb458152b92a4e72fbdc83fd5510 upstream.

We currently only halt the guest when a vCPU messes with the active
state of an SPI. This is perfectly fine for GICv2, but isn't enough
for GICv3, where all vCPUs can access the state of any other vCPU.

Let's broaden the condition to include any GICv3 interrupt that
has an active state (i.e. all but LPIs).

If you register a kvm_coalesced_mmio_zone with '.pio = 0' but then
unregister it with '.pio = 1', KVM_UNREGISTER_COALESCED_MMIO will try to
unregister it from KVM_PIO_BUS rather than KVM_MMIO_BUS, which is a
no-op.  But it frees the kvm_coalesced_mmio_dev anyway, causing a
use-after-free.

Fix it by only unregistering and freeing the zone if the correct value
of 'pio' is provided.

MMU_INVALIDATE_DOES_NOT_BLOCK flags was the only one used and it is no
longer needed since 93065ac753e4 ("mm, oom: distinguish blockable mode for
mmu notifiers").  We now have a full support for per range !blocking
behavior so we can drop the stop gap workaround which the per notifier
flag was used for.

Pull KVM updates from Radim Krčmář:
 "ARM:
   - Improved guest IPA space support (32 to 52 bits)

   - RAS event delivery for 32bit

   - PMU fixes

   - Guest entry hardening

   - Various cleanups

   - Port of dirty_log_test selftest

  PPC:
   - Nested HV KVM support for radix guests on POWER9. The performance
     is much better than with PR KVM. Migration and arbitrary level of
     nesting is supported.

   - Disable nested HV-KVM on early POWER9 chips that need a particular
     hardware bug workaround

Pull KVM updates from Radim Krčmář:
 "ARM:
   - Improved guest IPA space support (32 to 52 bits)

   - RAS event delivery for 32bit

   - PMU fixes

   - Guest entry hardening

   - Various cleanups

   - Port of dirty_log_test selftest

  PPC:
   - Nested HV KVM support for radix guests on POWER9. The performance
     is much better than with PR KVM. Migration and arbitrary level of
     nesting is supported.

Pull siginfo updates from Eric Biederman:
 "I have been slowly sorting out siginfo and this is the culmination of
  that work.

  The primary result is in several ways the signal infrastructure has
  been made less error prone. The code has been updated so that manually
  specifying SEND_SIG_FORCED is never necessary. The conversion to the
  new siginfo sending functions is now complete, which makes it
  difficult to send a signal without filling in the proper siginfo
  fields.

  At the tail end of the patchset comes the optimization of decreasing
  the size of struct siginfo in the kernel from 128 bytes to about 48
  bytes on 64bit. The fundamental observation that enables this is by
  definition none of the known ways to use struct siginfo uses the extra
  bytes.

  This comes at the cost of a small user space observable difference.
  For the rare case of siginfo being injected into the kernel only what
  can be copied into kernel_siginfo is delivered to the destination, the
  rest of the bytes are set to 0. For cases where the signal and the
  si_code are known this is safe, because we know those bytes are not
  used. For cases where the signal and si_code combination is unknown
  the bits that won't fit into struct kernel_siginfo are tested to
  verify they are zero, and the send fails if they are not.

  I made an extensive search through userspace code and I could not find
  anything that would break because of the above change. If it turns out
  I did break something it will take just the revert of a single change
  to restore kernel_siginfo to the same size as userspace siginfo.

  Testing did reveal dependencies on preferring the signo passed to
  sigqueueinfo over si-&gt;signo, so bit the bullet and added the
  complexity necessary to handle that case.

  Testing also revealed bad things can happen if a negative signal
  number is passed into the system calls. Something no sane application
  will do but something a malicious program or a fuzzer might do. So I
  have fixed the code that performs the bounds checks to ensure negative
  signal numbers are handled"
