The comment about Hyper-V accessors is unclear regarding their
potential use in x2apic mode, as is the associated commit message
in e211288b72f1.  Clarify that while the architectural and
synthetic MSRs are equivalent in x2apic mode, the full set of xapic
accessors cannot be used because of register layout differences.

In the architecture independent version of hyperv-tlfs.h, commit c55a844f46f958b
removed the "X64" in the symbol names so they would make sense for both x86 and
ARM64.  That commit added aliases with the "X64" in the x86 version of hyperv-tlfs.h 
so that existing x86 code would continue to compile.

As a cleanup, update the x86 code to use the symbols without the "X64", then remove 
the aliases.  There's no functional change.

Patch series "fix a hyperv W^X violation and remove vmalloc_exec"

Dexuan reported a W^X violation due to the fact that the hyper hypercall
page due switching it to be allocated using vmalloc_exec.

The problem is that PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC as used by vmalloc_exec actually
sets writable permissions in the pte.  This series fixes the issue by
switching to the low-level __vmalloc_node_range interface that allows
specifing more detailed permissions instead.  It then also open codes
the other two callers and removes the somewhat confusing vmalloc_exec
interface.

Peter noted that the hyper hypercall page allocation also has another
long standing issue in that it shouldn't use the full vmalloc but just
the module space.  This issue is so far theoretical as the allocation is
done early in the boot process.  I plan to fix it with another bigger
series for 5.9.

This patch (of 3):

Avoid a W^X violation cause by the fact that PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC includes
the writable bit.

For this resurrect the removed PAGE_KERNEL_RX definition, but as
PAGE_KERNEL_ROX to match arm64 and powerpc.

  - Emit the ASM stub with DECLARE_IDTENTRY_SYSVEC
  - Remove the ASM idtentries in 64-bit
  - Remove the BUILD_INTERRUPT entries in 32-bit
  - Remove the old prototypes

Patch series "decruft the vmalloc API", v2.

Peter noticed that with some dumb luck you can toast the kernel address
space with exported vmalloc symbols.

I used this as an opportunity to decruft the vmalloc.c API and make it
much more systematic.  This also removes any chance to create vmalloc
mappings outside the designated areas or using executable permissions
from modules.  Besides that it removes more than 300 lines of code.

This patch (of 29):

Use the designated helper for allocating executable kernel memory, and
remove the now unused PAGE_KERNEL_RX define.

Patch series "decruft the vmalloc API", v2.

Peter noticed that with some dumb luck you can toast the kernel address
space with exported vmalloc symbols.

I used this as an opportunity to decruft the vmalloc.c API and make it
much more systematic.  This also removes any chance to create vmalloc
mappings outside the designated areas or using executable permissions
from modules.  Besides that it removes more than 300 lines of code.

This patch (of 29):

Use the designated helper for allocating executable kernel memory, and
remove the now unused PAGE_KERNEL_RX define.

<title>x86/hyperv: Properly suspend/resume reenlightenment notifications</title>

<content type='text'>
Errors during hibernation with reenlightenment notifications enabled were
reported:

 [   51.730435] PM: hibernation entry
 [   51.737435] PM: Syncing filesystems ...
 ...
 [   54.102216] Disabling non-boot CPUs ...
 [   54.106633] smpboot: CPU 1 is now offline
 [   54.110006] unchecked MSR access error: WRMSR to 0x40000106 (tried to
     write 0x47c72780000100ee) at rIP: 0xffffffff90062f24
     native_write_msr+0x4/0x20)
 [   54.110006] Call Trace:
 [   54.110006]  hv_cpu_die+0xd9/0xf0
 ...

Normally, hv_cpu_die() just reassigns reenlightenment notifications to some
other CPU when the CPU receiving them goes offline. Upon hibernation, there
is no other CPU which is still online so cpumask_any_but(cpu_online_mask)
returns &gt;= nr_cpu_ids and using it as hv_vp_index index is incorrect.
Disable the feature when cpumask_any_but() fails.

Also, as we now disable reenlightenment notifications upon hibernation we
need to restore them on resume. Check if hv_reenlightenment_cb was
previously set and restore from hv_resume().

<title>x86/hyperv: Suspend/resume the VP assist page for hibernation</title>

Unlike the other CPUs, CPU0 is never offlined during hibernation, so in the
resume path, the "new" kernel's VP assist page is not suspended (i.e. not
disabled), and later when we jump to the "old" kernel, the page is not
properly re-enabled for CPU0 with the allocated page from the old kernel.

So far, the VP assist page is used by hv_apic_eoi_write(), and is also
used in the case of nested virtualization (running KVM atop Hyper-V).

For hv_apic_eoi_write(), when the page is not properly re-enabled,
hvp-&gt;apic_assist is always 0, so the HV_X64_MSR_EOI MSR is always written.
This is not ideal with respect to performance, but Hyper-V can still
correctly handle this according to the Hyper-V spec; nevertheless, Linux
still must update the Hyper-V hypervisor with the correct VP assist page
to prevent Hyper-V from writing to the stale page, which causes guest
memory corruption and consequently may have caused the hangs and triple
faults seen during non-boot CPUs resume.

Fix the issue by calling hv_cpu_die()/hv_cpu_init() in the syscore ops.
Without the fix, hibernation can fail at a rate of 1/300 ~ 1/500.
With the fix, hibernation can pass a long-haul test of 2000 runs.

In the case of nested virtualization, disabling/reenabling the assist
page upon hibernation may be unsafe if there are active L2 guests.
It looks KVM should be enhanced to abort the hibernation request if
there is any active L2 guest.
