Nothing in sigcontext.h seems to require anything from
linux/posix_types.h.  This include seems a MIPS relic originated from
an error in Linux 2.6.11-rc2 (in 2005).

The unneeded include was found debugging some vDSO self test build
failure (it's not the root cause though).

Probe ISA level, TLB, IOCSR information from CPUCFG to improve kernel
resilience to different core implementations.

BTW, IOCSR register definition appears to be a platform-specific spec
instead of an architecture spec, even for the Loongson CPUs there is no
guarantee that IOCSR will always present.

Thus it's dangerous to perform IOCSR probing without checking CPU type
and instruction availability.

<content type='text'>
Export kernel paravirt features to user space, so that VMM can control
each single paravirt feature. By default paravirt features will be the
same with kvm supported features if VMM does not set it.

Also a new feature KVM_FEATURE_VIRT_EXTIOI is added which can be set
from user space. This feature indicates that the virt EIOINTC can route
interrupts to 256 vCPUs, rather than 4 vCPUs like with real HW.

On LoongArch, the host and guest have their own PMU CSRs registers and
they share PMU hardware resources. A set of PMU CSRs consists of a CTRL
register and a CNTR register. We can set which PMU CSRs are used by the
guest by writing to the GCFG register [24:26] bits.

On KVM side:
- Save the host PMU CSRs into structure kvm_context.
- If the host supports the PMU feature.
  - When entering guest mode, save the host PMU CSRs and restore the guest PMU CSRs.
  - When exiting guest mode, save the guest PMU CSRs and restore the host PMU CSRs.

Every vcpu has separate LBT registers. And there are four scr registers,
one flags and ftop register for LBT extension. When VM migrates, VMM
needs to get LBT registers for every vcpu.

Here macro KVM_REG_LOONGARCH_LBT is added for new vcpu lbt register type,
the following macro is added to get/put LBT registers.
  KVM_REG_LOONGARCH_LBT_SCR0
  KVM_REG_LOONGARCH_LBT_SCR1
  KVM_REG_LOONGARCH_LBT_SCR2

<content type='text'>
Loongson SIMD Extension (LSX), Loongson Advanced SIMD Extension (LASX)
and Loongson Binary Translation (LBT) features are defined in register
CPUCFG2. Two kinds of LSX/LASX/LBT feature detection are added here, one
is VCPU feature, and the other is VM feature. VCPU feature dection can
only work with VCPU thread itself, and requires VCPU thread is created
already. So LSX/LASX/LBT feature detection for VM is added also, it can
be done even if VM is not created, and also can be done by any threads
besides VCPU threads.

Here ioctl command KVM_HAS_DEVICE_ATTR is added for VM, and macro
KVM_LOONGARCH_VM_FEAT_CTRL is added to check supported feature. And
five sub-features relative with LSX/LASX/LBT are added as following:
 KVM_LOONGARCH_VM_FEAT_LSX
 KVM_LOONGARCH_VM_FEAT_LASX
 KVM_LOONGARCH_VM_FEAT_X86BT
 KVM_LOONGARCH_VM_FEAT_ARMBT
 KVM_LOONGARCH_VM_FEAT_MIPSBT

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "ARM:

   - Initial infrastructure for shadow stage-2 MMUs, as part of nested
     virtualization enablement

   - Support for userspace changes to the guest CTR_EL0 value, enabling
     (in part) migration of VMs between heterogenous hardware

   - Fixes + improvements to pKVM's FF-A proxy, adding support for v1.1
     of the protocol

   - FPSIMD/SVE support for nested, including merged trap configuration
     and exception routing

   - New command-line parameter to control the WFx trap behavior under
     KVM

   - Introduce kCFI hardening in the EL2 hypervisor

   - Fixes + cleanups for handling presence/absence of FEAT_TCRX

   - Miscellaneous fixes + documentation updates

  LoongArch:

   - Add paravirt steal time support

   - Add support for KVM_DIRTY_LOG_INITIALLY_SET

   - Add perf kvm-stat support for loongarch

  RISC-V:

   - Redirect AMO load/store access fault traps to guest

   - perf kvm stat support

   - Use guest files for IMSIC virtualization, when available

  s390:

   - Assortment of tiny fixes which are not time critical

  x86:

   - Fixes for Xen emulation

   - Add a global struct to consolidate tracking of host values, e.g.
     EFER

   - Add KVM_CAP_X86_APIC_BUS_CYCLES_NS to allow configuring the
     effective APIC bus frequency, because TDX

   - Print the name of the APICv/AVIC inhibits in the relevant
     tracepoint

   - Clean up KVM's handling of vendor specific emulation to
     consistently act on "compatible with Intel/AMD", versus checking
     for a specific vendor

   - Drop MTRR virtualization, and instead always honor guest PAT on
     CPUs that support self-snoop

   - Update to the newfangled Intel CPU FMS infrastructure

   - Don't advertise IA32_PERF_GLOBAL_OVF_CTRL as an MSR-to-be-saved, as
     it reads '0' and writes from userspace are ignored

   - Misc cleanups

  x86 - MMU:

   - Small cleanups, renames and refactoring extracted from the upcoming
     Intel TDX support

   - Don't allocate kvm_mmu_page.shadowed_translation for shadow pages
     that can't hold leafs SPTEs

   - Unconditionally drop mmu_lock when allocating TDP MMU page tables
     for eager page splitting, to avoid stalling vCPUs when splitting
     huge pages

   - Bug the VM instead of simply warning if KVM tries to split a SPTE
     that is non-present or not-huge. KVM is guaranteed to end up in a
     broken state because the callers fully expect a valid SPTE, it's
     all but dangerous to let more MMU changes happen afterwards

  x86 - AMD:

   - Make per-CPU save_area allocations NUMA-aware

   - Force sev_es_host_save_area() to be inlined to avoid calling into
     an instrumentable function from noinstr code

   - Base support for running SEV-SNP guests. API-wise, this includes a
     new KVM_X86_SNP_VM type, encrypting/measure the initial image into
     guest memory, and finalizing it before launching it. Internally,
     there are some gmem/mmu hooks needed to prepare gmem-allocated
     pages before mapping them into guest private memory ranges

     This includes basic support for attestation guest requests, enough
     to say that KVM supports the GHCB 2.0 specification

     There is no support yet for loading into the firmware those signing
     keys to be used for attestation requests, and therefore no need yet
     for the host to provide certificate data for those keys.

     To support fetching certificate data from userspace, a new KVM exit
     type will be needed to handle fetching the certificate from
     userspace.

     An attempt to define a new KVM_EXIT_COCO / KVM_EXIT_COCO_REQ_CERTS
     exit type to handle this was introduced in v1 of this patchset, but
     is still being discussed by community, so for now this patchset
     only implements a stub version of SNP Extended Guest Requests that
     does not provide certificate data

  x86 - Intel:

   - Remove an unnecessary EPT TLB flush when enabling hardware

   - Fix a series of bugs that cause KVM to fail to detect nested
     pending posted interrupts as valid wake eents for a vCPU executing
     HLT in L2 (with HLT-exiting disable by L1)

   - KVM: x86: Suppress MMIO that is triggered during task switch
     emulation

     Explicitly suppress userspace emulated MMIO exits that are
     triggered when emulating a task switch as KVM doesn't support
     userspace MMIO during complex (multi-step) emulation

     Silently ignoring the exit request can result in the
     WARN_ON_ONCE(vcpu-&gt;mmio_needed) firing if KVM exits to userspace
     for some other reason prior to purging mmio_needed

     See commit 0dc902267cb3 ("KVM: x86: Suppress pending MMIO write
     exits if emulator detects exception") for more details on KVM's
     limitations with respect to emulated MMIO during complex emulator
     flows

  Generic:

   - Rename the AS_UNMOVABLE flag that was introduced for KVM to
     AS_INACCESSIBLE, because the special casing needed by these pages
     is not due to just unmovability (and in fact they are only
     unmovable because the CPU cannot access them)

   - New ioctl to populate the KVM page tables in advance, which is
     useful to mitigate KVM page faults during guest boot or after live
     migration. The code will also be used by TDX, but (probably) not
     through the ioctl

   - Enable halt poll shrinking by default, as Intel found it to be a
     clear win

   - Setup empty IRQ routing when creating a VM to avoid having to
     synchronize SRCU when creating a split IRQCHIP on x86

   - Rework the sched_in/out() paths to replace kvm_arch_sched_in() with
     a flag that arch code can use for hooking both sched_in() and
     sched_out()

   - Take the vCPU @id as an "unsigned long" instead of "u32" to avoid
     truncating a bogus value from userspace, e.g. to help userspace
     detect bugs

   - Mark a vCPU as preempted if and only if it's scheduled out while in
     the KVM_RUN loop, e.g. to avoid marking it preempted and thus
     writing guest memory when retrieving guest state during live
     migration blackout

  Selftests:

   - Remove dead code in the memslot modification stress test

   - Treat "branch instructions retired" as supported on all AMD Family
     17h+ CPUs

   - Print the guest pseudo-RNG seed only when it changes, to avoid
     spamming the log for tests that create lots of VMs

   - Make the PMU counters test less flaky when counting LLC cache
     misses by doing CLFLUSH{OPT} in every loop iteration"

The uapi/asm/unistd_64.h and asm/syscall_table_64.h headers can now be
generated from scripts/syscall.tbl, which makes this consistent with
the other architectures that have their own syscall.tbl.

Unlike the other architectures using the asm-generic header, loongarch
uses none of the deprecated system calls at the moment.

Both the user visible side of asm/unistd.h and the internal syscall
table in the kernel should have the same effective contents after this.

<title>clone3: drop __ARCH_WANT_SYS_CLONE3 macro</title>

<id>urn:sha1:505d66d1abfb90853e24ab6cbdf83b611473d6fc</id>
<content type='text'>
When clone3() was introduced, it was not obvious how each architecture
deals with setting up the stack and keeping the register contents in
a fork()-like system call, so this was left for the architecture
maintainers to implement, with __ARCH_WANT_SYS_CLONE3 defined by those
that already implement it.

Five years later, we still have a few architectures left that are missing
clone3(), and the macro keeps getting in the way as it's fundamentally
different from all the other __ARCH_WANT_SYS_* macros that are meant
to provide backwards-compatibility with applications using older
syscalls that are no longer provided by default.

Address this by reversing the polarity of the macro, adding an
__ARCH_BROKEN_SYS_CLONE3 macro to all architectures that don't
already provide the syscall, and remove __ARCH_WANT_SYS_CLONE3
from all the other ones.
