 "The main one is a fix for a broken strscpy() conversion that landed in
  the merge window and broke early parsing of the kernel command line.

   - Fix an incorrect mask in the CXL PMU driver

   - Fix a regression in early parsing of the kernel command line

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "ARM:

   - Clean up vCPU targets, always returning generic v8 as the preferred
     target

   - Trap forwarding infrastructure for nested virtualization (used for
     traps that are taken from an L2 guest and are needed by the L1
     hypervisor)

   - FEAT_TLBIRANGE support to only invalidate specific ranges of
     addresses when collapsing a table PTE to a block PTE. This avoids
     that the guest refills the TLBs again for addresses that aren't
     covered by the table PTE.

   - Fix vPMU issues related to handling of PMUver.

   - Don't unnecessary align non-stack allocations in the EL2 VA space

   - Drop HCR_VIRT_EXCP_MASK, which was never used...

   - Don't use smp_processor_id() in kvm_arch_vcpu_load(), but the cpu
     parameter instead

   - Drop redundant call to kvm_set_pfn_accessed() in user_mem_abort()

   - Remove prototypes without implementations

  RISC-V:

   - Zba, Zbs, Zicntr, Zicsr, Zifencei, and Zihpm support for guest

   - Added ONE_REG interface for SATP mode

   - Added ONE_REG interface to enable/disable multiple ISA extensions

   - Improved error codes returned by ONE_REG interfaces

   - Added KVM_GET_REG_LIST ioctl() implementation for KVM RISC-V

   - Added get-reg-list selftest for KVM RISC-V

  s390:

   - PV crypto passthrough enablement (Tony, Steffen, Viktor, Janosch)

     Allows a PV guest to use crypto cards. Card access is governed by
     the firmware and once a crypto queue is "bound" to a PV VM every
     other entity (PV or not) looses access until it is not bound
     anymore. Enablement is done via flags when creating the PV VM.

   - Guest debug fixes (Ilya)

  x86:

   - Clean up KVM's handling of Intel architectural events

   - Intel bugfixes

   - Add support for SEV-ES DebugSwap, allowing SEV-ES guests to use
     debug registers and generate/handle #DBs

   - Clean up LBR virtualization code

   - Fix a bug where KVM fails to set the target pCPU during an IRTE
     update

   - Fix fatal bugs in SEV-ES intrahost migration

   - Fix a bug where the recent (architecturally correct) change to
     reinject #BP and skip INT3 broke SEV guests (can't decode INT3 to
     skip it)

   - Retry APIC map recalculation if a vCPU is added/enabled

   - Overhaul emergency reboot code to bring SVM up to par with VMX, tie
     the "emergency disabling" behavior to KVM actually being loaded,
     and move all of the logic within KVM

   - Fix user triggerable WARNs in SVM where KVM incorrectly assumes the
     TSC ratio MSR cannot diverge from the default when TSC scaling is
     disabled up related code

   - Add a framework to allow "caching" feature flags so that KVM can
     check if the guest can use a feature without needing to search
     guest CPUID

   - Rip out the ancient MMU_DEBUG crud and replace the useful bits with
     CONFIG_KVM_PROVE_MMU

   - Fix KVM's handling of !visible guest roots to avoid premature
     triple fault injection

   - Overhaul KVM's page-track APIs, and KVMGT's usage, to reduce the
     API surface that is needed by external users (currently only
     KVMGT), and fix a variety of issues in the process

  Generic:

   - Wrap kvm_{gfn,hva}_range.pte in a union to allow mmu_notifier
     events to pass action specific data without needing to constantly
     update the main handlers.

   - Drop unused function declarations

  Selftests:

   - Add testcases to x86's sync_regs_test for detecting KVM TOCTOU bugs

   - Add support for printf() in guest code and covert all guest asserts
     to use printf-based reporting

   - Clean up the PMU event filter test and add new testcases

   - Include x86 selftests in the KVM x86 MAINTAINERS entry"

   - Fix hw_breakpoint single-stepping when called from bpf

   - Fixes for DDR PMU on i.MX8MP SoC

   - Add NUMA-awareness to Hisilicon PCIe PMU driver

   - Fix locking dependency issue in Arm DMC620 PMU driver

   - Workaround Hisilicon erratum 162001900 in the SMMUv3 PMU driver

   - Add support for Arm CMN-700 r3 parts to the CMN PMU driver

   - Add support for recent Arm Cortex CPU PMUs

   - Update Hisilicon PMU maintainers

     SHA1, etc)

   - Fix SSVE test to leave streaming-mode after grabbing the signal
     context

   - Add new test for SVE vector-length changes with SME enabled

   - Allow compiler to warn on suspicious looking system register
     expressions

   - Work around SDEI firmware bug by aborting any running handlers on a

<title>KVM: arm64: pmu: Resync EL0 state on counter rotation</title>

Huang Shijie reports that, when profiling a guest from the host
with a number of events that exceeds the number of available
counters, the reported counts are wildly inaccurate. Without
the counter oversubscription, the reported counts are correct.

Their investigation indicates that upon counter rotation (which
takes place on the back of a timer interrupt), we fail to
re-apply the guest EL0 enabling, leading to the counting of host
events instead of guest events.

In order to solve this, add yet another hook between the host PMU
driver and KVM, re-applying the guest EL0 configuration if the
right conditions apply (the host is VHE, we are in interrupt
context, and we interrupted a running vcpu). This triggers a new
vcpu request which will apply the correct configuration on guest
reentry.

With this, we have the correct counts, even when the counters are
oversubscribed.

ACPI TRBE does not have a HID for identification which could create and add
a platform device into the platform bus. Also without a platform device, it
cannot be probed and bound to a platform driver.

This creates a dummy platform device for TRBE after ascertaining that ACPI
provides required interrupts uniformly across all cpus on the system. This
device gets created inside drivers/perf/arm_pmu_acpi.c to accommodate TRBE
being built as a module.

Sanity checking all the GICC tables for same interrupt number, and ensuring
a homogeneous ACPI based machine, could be used for other platform devices
as well. Hence this refactors arm_spe_acpi_register_device() into a common
helper arm_acpi_register_pmu_device().

We used to unconditionnally expose the cycle and instret csrs to
userspace, which gives rise to security concerns.

So now we only allow access to hw counters from userspace through the perf
framework which will handle context switches, per-task events...etc. A
sysctl allows to revert the behaviour to the legacy mode so that userspace
applications which are not ready for this change do not break.

But the default value is to allow userspace only through perf: this will
break userspace applications which rely on direct access to rdcycle.
This choice was made for security reasons [1][2]: most of the applications
which use rdcycle can instead use rdtime to count the elapsed time.
