66d73e12f2 KVM: X86: MMU: no mmu_notifier_seq++ in kvm_age_hva
The MMU notifier sequence number keeps GPA->HPA mappings in sync when
GPA->HPA lookups are done outside of the MMU lock (e.g., in
tdp_page_fault). Since kvm_age_hva doesn't change GPA->HPA, it's
unnecessary to increment the sequence number.

 (vSIE), the STHYI opcode, initial extensions for CPU model support.

 - x86: support for execute-only mappings in nested EPT; reduced vmexit
 latency for TSC deadline timer (by about 30%) on Intel hosts; support for
 more than 255 vCPUs.
 
 - PPC: bugfixes.
 
 The ugly bit is the conflicts.  A couple of them are simple conflicts due
 to 4.7 fixes, but most of them are with other trees. There was definitely
 too much reliance on Acked-by here.  Some conflicts are for KVM patches
 where _I_ gave my Acked-by, but the worst are for this pull request's
 patches that touch files outside arch/*/kvm.  KVM submaintainers should
 probably learn to synchronize better with arch maintainers, with the
 latter providing topic branches whenever possible instead of Acked-by.
 This is what we do with arch/x86.  And I should learn to refuse pull
 requests when linux-next sends scary signals, even if that means that
 submaintainers have to rebase their branches.
 
 Anyhow, here's the list:
 
 - arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c: handle_pcommit and EXIT_REASON_PCOMMIT was removed
 by the nvdimm tree.  This tree adds handle_preemption_timer and
 EXIT_REASON_PREEMPTION_TIMER at the same place.  In general all mentions
 of pcommit have to go.
 
 There is also a conflict between a stable fix and this patch, where the
 stable fix removed the vmx_create_pml_buffer function and its call.
 
 - virt/kvm/kvm_main.c: kvm_cpu_notifier was removed by the hotplug tree.
 This tree adds kvm_io_bus_get_dev at the same place.
 
 - virt/kvm/arm/vgic.c: a few final bugfixes went into 4.7 before the
 file was completely removed for 4.8.
 
 - include/linux/irqchip/arm-gic-v3.h: this one is entirely our fault;
 this is a change that should have gone in through the irqchip tree and
 pulled by kvm-arm.  I think I would have rejected this kvm-arm pull
 request.  The KVM version is the right one, except that it lacks
 GITS_BASER_PAGES_SHIFT.
 
 - arch/powerpc: what a mess.  For the idle_book3s.S conflict, the KVM
 tree is the right one; everything else is trivial.  In this case I am
 not quite sure what went wrong.  The commit that is causing the mess
 (fd7bacbca4, "KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix TB corruption in guest exit
 path on HMI interrupt", 2016-05-15) touches both arch/powerpc/kernel/
 and arch/powerpc/kvm/.  It's large, but at 396 insertions/5 deletions
 I guessed that it wasn't really possible to split it and that the 5
 deletions wouldn't conflict.  That wasn't the case.
 
 - arch/s390: also messy.  First is hypfs_diag.c where the KVM tree
 moved some code and the s390 tree patched it.  You have to reapply the
 relevant part of commits 6c22c98637, plus all of e030c1125e, to
 arch/s390/kernel/diag.c.  Or pick the linux-next conflict
 resolution from http://marc.info/?l=kvm&m=146717549531603&w=2.
 Second, there is a conflict in gmap.c between a stable fix and 4.8.
 The KVM version here is the correct one.
 
 I have pushed my resolution at refs/heads/merge-20160802 (commit
 3d1f53419842) at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm.git.

1767e931e3 x86/kvm: Audit and remove any unnecessary uses of module.h
Historically a lot of these existed because we did not have
a distinction between what was modular code and what was providing
support to modules via EXPORT_SYMBOL and friends.  That changed
when we forked out support for the latter into the export.h file.

This means we should be able to reduce the usage of module.h
in code that is obj-y Makefile or bool Kconfig.  In the case of
kvm where it is modular, we can extend that to also include files
that are building basic support functionality but not related
to loading or registering the final module; such files also have
no need whatsoever for module.h

The advantage in removing such instances is that module.h itself
sources about 15 other headers; adding significantly to what we feed
cpp, and it can obscure what headers we are effectively using.

Since module.h was the source for init.h (for __init) and for
export.h (for EXPORT_SYMBOL) we consider each instance for the
presence of either and replace as needed.

Several instances got replaced with moduleparam.h since that was
really all that was required for those particular files.

d95c55687e kvm: mmu: track read permission explicitly for shadow EPT page tables
To support execute only mappings on behalf of L1 hypervisors,
reuse ACC_USER_MASK to signify if the L1 hypervisor has the R bit
set.

For the nested EPT case, we assumed that the U bit was always set
since there was no equivalent in EPT page tables.  Strictly
speaking, this was not necessary because handle_ept_violation
never set PFERR_USER_MASK in the error code (uf=0 in the
parlance of update_permission_bitmask).  We now have to set
both U and UF correctly, respectively in FNAME(gpte_access)
and in handle_ept_violation.

Also in handle_ept_violation bit 3 of the exit qualification is
not enough to detect a present PTE; all three bits 3-5 have to
be checked.

This is safe because this function is called

b19ee2ff3b KVM: x86: avoid write-tearing of TDP
In theory, nothing prevents the compiler from write-tearing PTEs, or
split PTE writes. These partially-modified PTEs can be fetched by other
cores and cause mayhem. I have not really encountered such case in
real-life, but it does seem possible.

For example, the compiler may try to do something creative for
kvm_set_pte_rmapp() and perform multiple writes to the PTE.

127393fbe5 mm: thp: kvm: fix memory corruption in KVM with THP enabled
After the THP refcounting change, obtaining a compound pages from
get_user_pages() no longer allows us to assume the entire compound page
is immediately mappable from a secondary MMU.

A secondary MMU doesn't want to call get_user_pages() more than once for
each compound page, in order to know if it can map the whole compound
page.  So a secondary MMU needs to know from a single get_user_pages()
invocation when it can map immediately the entire compound page to avoid
a flood of unnecessary secondary MMU faults and spurious
atomic_inc()/atomic_dec() (pages don't have to be pinned by MMU notifier
users).

Ideally instead of the page->_mapcount < 1 check, get_user_pages()
should return the granularity of the "page" mapping in the "mm" passed
to get_user_pages().  However it's non trivial change to pass the "pmd"
status belonging to the "mm" walked by get_user_pages up the stack (up
to the caller of get_user_pages).  So the fix just checks if there is
not a single pte mapping on the page returned by get_user_pages, and in
turn if the caller can assume that the whole compound page is mapped in
the current "mm" (in a pmd_trans_huge()).  In such case the entire
compound page is safe to map into the secondary MMU without additional
get_user_pages() calls on the surrounding tail/head pages.  In addition
of being faster, not having to run other get_user_pages() calls also
reduces the memory footprint of the secondary MMU fault in case the pmd
split happened as result of memory pressure.

Without this fix after a MADV_DONTNEED (like invoked by QEMU during
postcopy live migration or balloning) or after generic swapping (with a
failure in split_huge_page() that would only result in pmd splitting and
not a physical page split), KVM would map the whole compound page into
the shadow pagetables, despite regular faults or userfaults (like
UFFDIO_COPY) may map regular pages into the primary MMU as result of the
pte faults, leading to the guest mode and userland mode going out of
sync and not working on the same memory at all times.

Any other secondary MMU notifier manager (KVM is just one of the many
MMU notifier users) will need the same information if it doesn't want to
run a flood of get_user_pages_fast and it can support multiple
granularity in the secondary MMU mappings, so I think it is justified to
be exposed not just to KVM.

The other option would be to move transparent_hugepage_adjust to
mm/huge_memory.c but that currently has all kind of KVM data structures
in it, so it's definitely not a cut-and-paste work, so I couldn't do a
fix as cleaner as this one for 4.6.

5f0b819995 KVM: MMU: fix reserved bit check for ept=0/CR0.WP=0/CR4.SMEP=1/EFER.NX=0
KVM has special logic to handle pages with pte.u=1 and pte.w=0 when
CR0.WP=1.  These pages' SPTEs flip continuously between two states:
U=1/W=0 (user and supervisor reads allowed, supervisor writes not allowed)
and U=0/W=1 (supervisor reads and writes allowed, user writes not allowed).

When SMEP is in effect, however, U=0 will enable kernel execution of
this page.  To avoid this, KVM also sets NX=1 in the shadow PTE together
with U=0, making the two states U=1/W=0/NX=gpte.NX and U=0/W=1/NX=1.
When guest EFER has the NX bit cleared, the reserved bit check thinks
that the latter state is invalid; teach it that the smep_andnot_wp case
will also use the NX bit of SPTEs.

is simply doing a range check, like

it is enough to cache N.

9a43c5d9c3 KVM: MMU: cleanup __kvm_sync_page and its callers
Calling kvm_unlink_unsync_page in the middle of __kvm_sync_page makes
things unnecessarily tricky.  If kvm_mmu_prepare_zap_page is called,
it will call kvm_unlink_unsync_page too.  So kvm_unlink_unsync_page can
be called just as well at the beginning or the end of __kvm_sync_page...
which means that we might do it in kvm_sync_page too and remove the
parameter.

kvm_sync_page ends up being the same code that kvm_sync_pages used
to have before the previous patch.

0a47cd8583 KVM: MMU: Fix ubsan warnings
kvm_mmu_pages_init is doing some really yucky stuff.  It is setting
up a sentinel for mmu_page_clear_parents; however, because of a) the
way levels are numbered starting from 1 and b) the way mmu_page_path
sizes its arrays with PT64_ROOT_LEVEL-1 elements, the access can be
out of bounds.  This is harmless because the code overwrites up to the
first two elements of parents->idx and these are initialized, and
because the sentinel is not needed in this case---mmu_page_clear_parents
exits anyway when it gets to the end of the array.  However ubsan
complains, and everyone else should too.

This fix does three things.  First it makes the mmu_page_path arrays
PT64_ROOT_LEVEL elements in size, so that we can write to them without
checking the level in advance.  Second it disintegrates kvm_mmu_pages_init
between mmu_unsync_walk (to reset the struct kvm_mmu_pages) and
for_each_sp (to place the NULL sentinel at the end of the current path).
This is okay because the mmu_page_path is only used in
mmu_pages_clear_parents; mmu_pages_clear_parents itself is called within
a for_each_sp iterator, and hence always after a call to mmu_pages_next.
Third it changes mmu_pages_clear_parents to just use the sentinel to
stop iteration, without checking the bounds on level.

These two have only slight differences:
 - whether 'addr' is of type u64 or of type gva_t

Concerning the former, quickly_check_mmio_pf()'s u64 is better because
'addr' needs to be able to have both a guest physical address and a
guest virtual address.

The latter is just a stylistic issue as we can always calculate the mode
from the 'vcpu' as is_mmio_page_fault() does.  This patch keeps the
parameter to make the following patch cleaner.

In addition, the patch renames the function to mmio_info_in_cache() to

ba049e93ae kvm: rename pfn_t to kvm_pfn_t
To date, we have implemented two I/O usage models for persistent memory,
PMEM (a persistent "ram disk") and DAX (mmap persistent memory into
userspace).  This series adds a third, DAX-GUP, that allows DAX mappings
to be the target of direct-i/o.  It allows userspace to coordinate
DMA/RDMA from/to persistent memory.

The implementation leverages the ZONE_DEVICE mm-zone that went into
4.3-rc1 (also discussed at kernel summit) to flag pages that are owned
and dynamically mapped by a device driver.  The pmem driver, after
mapping a persistent memory range into the system memmap via
devm_memremap_pages(), arranges for DAX to distinguish pfn-only versus
page-backed pmem-pfns via flags in the new pfn_t type.

The DAX code, upon seeing a PFN_DEV+PFN_MAP flagged pfn, flags the
resulting pte(s) inserted into the process page tables with a new
_PAGE_DEVMAP flag.  Later, when get_user_pages() is walking ptes it keys
off _PAGE_DEVMAP to pin the device hosting the page range active.
Finally, get_page() and put_page() are modified to take references
against the device driver established page mapping.

Finally, this need for "struct page" for persistent memory requires
memory capacity to store the memmap array.  Given the memmap array for a
large pool of persistent may exhaust available DRAM introduce a
mechanism to allocate the memmap from persistent memory.  The new
"struct vmem_altmap *" parameter to devm_memremap_pages() enables
arch_add_memory() to use reserved pmem capacity rather than the page
allocator.

This patch (of 18):

0af2593b2a kvm: x86: fix comment about {mmu,nested_mmu}.gva_to_gpa
The comment had the meaning of mmu.gva_to_gpa and nested_mmu.gva_to_gpa
swapped. Fix that, and also add some details describing how each translation
works.

774926641d KVM: x86: MMU: Use clear_page() instead of init_shadow_page_table()

enhanced instructions: the initialization became 20-30% faster on our
testing machine.
