[ Upstream commit 3d75b8aa5c29058a512db29da7cbee8052724157 ]

Always flush the per-vCPU async #PF workqueue when a vCPU is clearing its
completion queue, e.g. when a VM and all its vCPUs is being destroyed.
KVM must ensure that none of its workqueue callbacks is running when the
last reference to the KVM _module_ is put.  Gifting a reference to the
associated VM prevents the workqueue callback from dereferencing freed
vCPU/VM memory, but does not prevent the KVM module from being unloaded
before the callback completes.

Drop the misguided VM refcount gifting, as calling kvm_put_kvm() from
async_pf_execute() if kvm_put_kvm() flushes the async #PF workqueue will
result in deadlock.  async_pf_execute() can't return until kvm_put_kvm()
finishes, and kvm_put_kvm() can't return until async_pf_execute() finishes:

If kvm_clear_async_pf_completion_queue() actually flushes the workqueue,
then there's no need to gift async_pf_execute() a reference because all
invocations of async_pf_execute() will be forced to complete before the
vCPU and its VM are destroyed/freed.  And that in turn fixes the module
unloading bug as __fput() won't do module_put() on the last vCPU reference
until the vCPU has been freed, e.g. if closing the vCPU file also puts the
last reference to the KVM module.

Note that kvm_check_async_pf_completion() may also take the work item off
the completion queue and so also needs to flush the work queue, as the
work will not be seen by kvm_clear_async_pf_completion_queue().  Waiting
on the workqueue could theoretically delay a vCPU due to waiting for the
work to complete, but that's a very, very small chance, and likely a very
small delay.  kvm_arch_async_page_present_queued() unconditionally makes a
new request, i.e. will effectively delay entering the guest, so the
remaining work is really just:

        trace_kvm_async_pf_completed(addr, cr2_or_gpa);

        __kvm_vcpu_wake_up(vcpu);

        mmput(mm);

and mmput() can't drop the last reference to the page tables if the vCPU is
still alive, i.e. the vCPU won't get stuck tearing down page tables.

Add a helper to do the flushing, specifically to deal with "wakeup all"
work items, as they aren't actually work items, i.e. are never placed in a
workqueue.  Trying to flush a bogus workqueue entry rightly makes
__flush_work() complain (kudos to whoever added that sanity check).

Note, commit 5f6de5cbebee ("KVM: Prevent module exit until all VMs are
freed") *tried* to fix the module refcounting issue by having VMs grab a
reference to the module, but that only made the bug slightly harder to hit
as it gave async_pf_execute() a bit more time to complete before the KVM
module could be unloaded.

It is possible that an LPI mapped in a different ITS gets unmapped while
handling the MOVALL command. If that is the case, there is no state that
can be migrated to the destination. Silently ignore it and continue
migrating other LPIs.

vgic_get_irq() may not return a valid descriptor if there is no ITS that
holds a valid translation for the specified INTID. If that is the case,
it is safe to silently ignore it and continue processing the LPI pending

commit c000a2607145d28b06c697f968491372ea56c23a upstream.

With some PCIe topologies, restoring a guest fails while
parsing the ITS device tables.

Reproducer hints:
1. Create ARM virt VM with pxb-pcie bus which adds
   extra host bridges, with qemu command like:

```
  -device pxb-pcie,bus_nr=8,id=pci.x,numa_node=0,bus=pcie.0 \
  -device pcie-root-port,..,bus=pci.x \
  ...
  -device pxb-pcie,bus_nr=37,id=pci.y,numa_node=1,bus=pcie.0 \
  -device pcie-root-port,..,bus=pci.y \
  ...

```
2. Ensure the guest uses 2-level device table
3. Perform VM migration which calls save/restore device tables

In that setup, we get a big "offset" between 2 device_ids,
which makes unsigned "len" round up a big positive number,
causing the scan loop to continue with a bad GPA. For example:

1. L1 table has 2 entries;
2. and we are now scanning at L2 table entry index 2075 (pointed
   to by L1 first entry)
3. if next device id is 9472, we will get a big offset: 7397;
4. with unsigned 'len', 'len -= offset * esz', len will underflow to a
   positive number, mistakenly into next iteration with a bad GPA;
   (It should break out of the current L2 table scanning, and jump
   into the next L1 table entry)
5. that bad GPA fails the guest read.

Fix it by stopping the L2 table scan when the next device id is
outside of the current table, allowing the scan to continue from
the next L1 table entry.

Thanks to Eric Auger for the fix suggestion.

<title>KVM: Prevent module exit until all VMs are freed</title>

commit 5f6de5cbebee925a612856fce6f9182bb3eee0db upstream.

Tie the lifetime the KVM module to the lifetime of each VM via
kvm.users_count. This way anything that grabs a reference to the VM via
kvm_get_kvm() cannot accidentally outlive the KVM module.

Prior to this commit, the lifetime of the KVM module was tied to the
lifetime of /dev/kvm file descriptors, VM file descriptors, and vCPU
file descriptors by their respective file_operations "owner" field.
This approach is insufficient because references grabbed via
kvm_get_kvm() do not prevent closing any of the aforementioned file
descriptors.

This fixes a long standing theoretical bug in KVM that at least affects
async page faults. kvm_setup_async_pf() grabs a reference via
kvm_get_kvm(), and drops it in an asynchronous work callback. Nothing
prevents the VM file descriptor from being closed and the KVM module
from being unloaded before this callback runs.

Fixes: af585b921e5d ("KVM: Halt vcpu if page it tries to access is swapped out")
Fixes: 3d3aab1b973b ("KVM: set owner of cpu and vm file operations")

commit a5905d6af492ee6a4a2205f0d550b3f931b03d03 upstream.

KVM allows the guest to discover whether the ARCH_WORKAROUND SMCCC are
implemented, and to preserve that state during migration through its
firmware register interface.

Add the necessary boiler plate for SMCCC_ARCH_WORKAROUND_3.

<title>KVM: arm64: Handle PSCI resets before userspace touches vCPU state</title>

[ Upstream commit 6826c6849b46aaa91300201213701eb861af4ba0 ]

The CPU_ON PSCI call takes a payload that KVM uses to configure a
destination vCPU to run. This payload is non-architectural state and not
exposed through any existing UAPI. Effectively, we have a race between
CPU_ON and userspace saving/restoring a guest: if the target vCPU isn't
ran again before the VMM saves its state, the requested PC and context
ID are lost. When restored, the target vCPU will be runnable and start
executing at its old PC.

We can avoid this race by making sure the reset payload is serviced
before userspace can access a vCPU's state.

<title>KVM: Use kvm_pfn_t for local PFN variable in hva_to_pfn_remapped()</title>

commit a9545779ee9e9e103648f6f2552e73cfe808d0f4 upstream.

Use kvm_pfn_t, a.k.a. u64, for the local 'pfn' variable when retrieving
a so called "remapped" hva/pfn pair.  In theory, the hva could resolve to
a pfn in high memory on a 32-bit kernel.

This bug was inadvertantly exposed by commit bd2fae8da794 ("KVM: do not
assume PTE is writable after follow_pfn"), which added an error PFN value
to the mix, causing gcc to comlain about overflowing the unsigned long.
