Before running a guest, the host process (e.g., QEMU) FP/VEC registers
are saved if they were being used, similarly to when the kernel uses FP
registers. The guest values are then loaded into regs, and the host
process registers will be restored lazily when it uses FP/VEC.
KVM HV has a bug here: the host process registers do get saved, but the
user MSR bits remain enabled, which indicates the registers are valid
for the process. After they are clobbered by running the guest, this
valid indication causes the host process to take on the FP/VEC register
values of the guest.

During floating point and vector save to thread data f0/vs0 are
clobbered by the FPSCR/VSCR store routine. This has been obvserved to
lead to userspace register corruption and application data corruption
with io-uring.
Fix it by restoring f0/vs0 after FPSCR/VSCR store has completed for
all the FP, altivec, VMX register save paths.
Tested under QEMU in kvm mode, running on a Talos II workstation with
dual POWER9 DD2.2 CPUs.
Additional detail (mpe):
Typically save_fpu() is called from __giveup_fpu() which saves the FP
regs and also *turns off FP* in the tasks MSR, meaning the kernel will
reload the FP regs from the thread struct before letting the task use FP
again. So in that case save_fpu() is free to clobber f0 because the FP
regs no longer hold live values for the task.
There is another case though, which is the path via:
sys_clone()
...
copy_process()
dup_task_struct()
arch_dup_task_struct()
flush_all_to_thread()
save_all()
That path saves the FP regs but leaves them live. That's meant as an
optimisation for a process that's using FP/VSX and then calls fork(),
leaving the regs live means the parent process doesn't have to take a
fault after the fork to get its FP regs back. The optimisation was added
in commit 8792468da5e1 ("powerpc: Add the ability to save FPU without
giving it up").
That path does clobber f0, but f0 is volatile across function calls,
and typically programs reach copy_process() from userspace via a syscall
wrapper function. So in normal usage f0 being clobbered across a
syscall doesn't cause visible data corruption.
But there is now a new path, because io-uring can call copy_process()
via create_io_thread() from the signal handling path. That's OK if the
signal is handled as part of syscall return, but it's not OK if the
signal is handled due to some other interrupt.
That path is:
interrupt_return_srr_user()
interrupt_exit_user_prepare()
interrupt_exit_user_prepare_main()
do_notify_resume()
get_signal()
task_work_run()
create_worker_cb()
create_io_worker()
copy_process()
dup_task_struct()
arch_dup_task_struct()
flush_all_to_thread()
save_all()
if (tsk->thread.regs->msr & MSR_FP)
save_fpu()
# f0 is clobbered and potentially live in userspace
Note the above discussion applies equally to save_altivec().

The rtas_read_config() and rtas_write_config() functions in
kernel/rtas_pci.c have external linkage and two users in arch/powerpc:
the rtas_pci code itself and the pseries platform's "enhanced error
handling" (EEH) support code.
The prototypes for these functions in asm/ppc-pci.h have until now
been guarded by CONFIG_EEH since the only external caller is the
pseries EEH code. However, this presumably has always generated
warnings when built with !CONFIG_EEH and -Wmissing-prototypes:
arch/powerpc/kernel/rtas_pci.c:46:5: error: no previous prototype for
function 'rtas_read_config' [-Werror,-Wmissing-prototypes]
46 | int rtas_read_config(struct pci_dn *pdn, int where,

function 'rtas_write_config' [-Werror,-Wmissing-prototypes]
98 | int rtas_write_config(struct pci_dn *pdn, int where,
int size, u32 val)
The introduction of commit c6345dfa6e3e ("Makefile.extrawarn: turn on
missing-prototypes globally") forces the issue.
The efika and chrp platform code have (static) functions with the same
names but different signatures. We may as well eliminate the potential
for conflicts and confusion by renaming the globally visible versions
as their prototypes get moved out of the CONFIG_EEH-guarded region;
their current names are too generic anyway. Since they operate on
objects of the type 'struct pci_dn *', give them the slightly more
verbose prefix "rtas_pci_dn_" and fix up all the call sites.

Building with GCC with -Warray-bounds enabled there are several warnings
in sstep.c along the lines of:
In function ‘do_byte_reverse’,
inlined from ‘do_vec_load’ at arch/powerpc/lib/sstep.c:691:3,
inlined from ‘emulate_loadstore’ at arch/powerpc/lib/sstep.c:3439:9:
arch/powerpc/lib/sstep.c:289:23: error: array subscript 2 is outside array bounds of ‘u8[16]’ {aka ‘unsigned char[16]’} [-Werror=array-bounds=]
289 | up[2] = byterev_8(up[1]);
| ~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
arch/powerpc/lib/sstep.c: In function ‘emulate_loadstore’:
arch/powerpc/lib/sstep.c:681:11: note: at offset 16 into object ‘u’ of size 16
681 | } u = {};
| ^
do_byte_reverse() supports a size up to 32 bytes, but in these cases the
caller is only passing a 16 byte buffer. In practice there is no bug,
do_vec_load() is only called from the LOAD_VMX case in emulate_loadstore().
That in turn is only reached when analyse_instr() recognises VMX ops,
and in all cases the size is no greater than 16:
$ git grep -w LOAD_VMX arch/powerpc/lib/sstep.c
arch/powerpc/lib/sstep.c: op->type = MKOP(LOAD_VMX, 0, 1);
arch/powerpc/lib/sstep.c: op->type = MKOP(LOAD_VMX, 0, 2);
arch/powerpc/lib/sstep.c: op->type = MKOP(LOAD_VMX, 0, 4);
arch/powerpc/lib/sstep.c: op->type = MKOP(LOAD_VMX, 0, 16);
Similarly for do_vec_store().
Although the warning is incorrect, the code would be safer if it clamped
the size from the caller to the known size of the buffer. Do that using
min_t().

The cpu_spec is a struct holding various information about the CPU the
kernel is executing on. It's populated early in boot and must not change
after that.
In particular the cpu_features and mmu_features hold the set of
discovered CPU/MMU features and are used to set static keys for each
feature, and do binary patching of assembly. So any change to the
cpu_features/mmu_features later in boot will not be reflected in
the state of the static keys or patched code.
There is already logic to check that cpu_features/mmu_features don't
change, see check_features() in feature-fixups.c.
But as another layer of protection the entire cpu_spec should be read
only after init, annotate it as such.

ioremap_uc() is only meaningful on old x86-32 systems with the PAT
extension, and on ia64 with its slightly unconventional ioremap()
behavior. So remove the ioremap_uc() definition in architecutures
other than x86 and ia64. These architectures all have asm-generic/io.h
included and will have the default ioremap_uc() definition which
returns NULL.
This changes the existing behaviour, while no need to worry about
any breakage because in the only callsite of ioremap_uc(), code
has been adjusted to eliminate the impact. Please see
atyfb_setup_generic() of drivers/video/fbdev/aty/atyfb_base.c.
If any new invocation of ioremap_uc() need be added, please consider
using ioremap() intead or adding a ARCH specific version if necessary.

Introduce several new KVM uAPIs to ultimately create a guest-first memory
subsystem within KVM, a.k.a. guest_memfd. Guest-first memory allows KVM
to provide features, enhancements, and optimizations that are kludgly
or outright impossible to implement in a generic memory subsystem.
The core KVM ioctl() for guest_memfd is KVM_CREATE_GUEST_MEMFD, which
similar to the generic memfd_create(), creates an anonymous file and
returns a file descriptor that refers to it. Again like "regular"
memfd files, guest_memfd files live in RAM, have volatile storage,
and are automatically released when the last reference is dropped.
The key differences between memfd files (and every other memory subystem)
is that guest_memfd files are bound to their owning virtual machine,
cannot be mapped, read, or written by userspace, and cannot be resized.
guest_memfd files do however support PUNCH_HOLE, which can be used to
convert a guest memory area between the shared and guest-private states.
A second KVM ioctl(), KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES, allows userspace to
specify attributes for a given page of guest memory. In the long term,
it will likely be extended to allow userspace to specify per-gfn RWX
protections, including allowing memory to be writable in the guest
without it also being writable in host userspace.
The immediate and driving use case for guest_memfd are Confidential
(CoCo) VMs, specifically AMD's SEV-SNP, Intel's TDX, and KVM's own pKVM.
For such use cases, being able to map memory into KVM guests without
requiring said memory to be mapped into the host is a hard requirement.
While SEV+ and TDX prevent untrusted software from reading guest private
data by encrypting guest memory, pKVM provides confidentiality and
integrity *without* relying on memory encryption. In addition, with
SEV-SNP and especially TDX, accessing guest private memory can be fatal
to the host, i.e. KVM must be prevent host userspace from accessing
guest memory irrespective of hardware behavior.
Long term, guest_memfd may be useful for use cases beyond CoCo VMs,
for example hardening userspace against unintentional accesses to guest
memory. As mentioned earlier, KVM's ABI uses userspace VMA protections to
define the allow guest protection (with an exception granted to mapping
guest memory executable), and similarly KVM currently requires the guest
mapping size to be a strict subset of the host userspace mapping size.
Decoupling the mappings sizes would allow userspace to precisely map
only what is needed and with the required permissions, without impacting
guest performance.
A guest-first memory subsystem also provides clearer line of sight to
things like a dedicated memory pool (for slice-of-hardware VMs) and
elimination of "struct page" (for offload setups where userspace _never_
needs to DMA from or into guest memory).
guest_memfd is the result of 3+ years of development and exploration;
taking on memory management responsibilities in KVM was not the first,
second, or even third choice for supporting CoCo VMs. But after many
failed attempts to avoid KVM-specific backing memory, and looking at
where things ended up, it is quite clear that of all approaches tried,
guest_memfd is the simplest, most robust, and most extensible, and the
right thing to do for KVM and the kernel at-large.
The "development cycle" for this version is going to be very short;
ideally, next week I will merge it as is in kvm/next, taking this through
the KVM tree for 6.8 immediately after the end of the merge window.
The series is still based on 6.6 (plus KVM changes for 6.7) so it
will require a small fixup for changes to get_file_rcu() introduced in
6.7 by commit 0ede61d8589c ("file: convert to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU").
The fixup will be done as part of the merge commit, and most of the text
above will become the commit message for the merge.
Pending post-merge work includes:
- hugepage support
- looking into using the restrictedmem framework for guest memory
- introducing a testing mechanism to poison memory, possibly using
the same memory attributes introduced here
- SNP and TDX support
There are two non-KVM patches buried in the middle of this series:
fs: Rename anon_inode_getfile_secure() and anon_inode_getfd_secure()
mm: Add AS_UNMOVABLE to mark mapping as completely unmovable
The first is small and mostly suggested-by Christian Brauner; the second
a bit less so but it was written by an mm person (Vlastimil Babka).

Let x86 track the number of address spaces on a per-VM basis so that KVM
can disallow SMM memslots for confidential VMs. Confidentials VMs are
fundamentally incompatible with emulating SMM, which as the name suggests
requires being able to read and write guest memory and register state.
Disallowing SMM will simplify support for guest private memory, as KVM
will not need to worry about tracking memory attributes for multiple
address spaces (SMM is the only "non-default" address space across all
architectures).

Convert KVM_ARCH_WANT_MMU_NOTIFIER into a Kconfig and select it where
appropriate to effectively maintain existing behavior. Using a proper
Kconfig will simplify building more functionality on top of KVM's
mmu_notifier infrastructure.
Add a forward declaration of kvm_gfn_range to kvm_types.h so that
including arch/powerpc/include/asm/kvm_ppc.h's with CONFIG_KVM=n doesn't
generate warnings due to kvm_gfn_range being undeclared. PPC defines
hooks for PR vs. HV without guarding them via #ifdeffery, e.g.
bool (*unmap_gfn_range)(struct kvm *kvm, struct kvm_gfn_range *range);
bool (*age_gfn)(struct kvm *kvm, struct kvm_gfn_range *range);
bool (*test_age_gfn)(struct kvm *kvm, struct kvm_gfn_range *range);
bool (*set_spte_gfn)(struct kvm *kvm, struct kvm_gfn_range *range);
Alternatively, PPC could forward declare kvm_gfn_range, but there's no
good reason not to define it in common KVM.

Advertise that KVM's MMU is synchronized with the primary MMU for all
flavors of PPC KVM support, i.e. advertise that the MMU is synchronized
when CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_HV_POSSIBLE=y but the VM is not using hypervisor
mode (a.k.a. PR VMs). PR VMs, via kvm_unmap_gfn_range_pr(), do the right
thing for mmu_notifier invalidation events, and more tellingly, KVM
returns '1' for KVM_CAP_SYNC_MMU when CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_HV_POSSIBLE=n
and CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_PR_POSSIBLE=y, i.e. KVM already advertises a
synchronized MMU for PR VMs, just not when CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_HV_POSSIBLE=y.

Assert that both KVM_ARCH_WANT_MMU_NOTIFIER and CONFIG_MMU_NOTIFIER are
defined when KVM is enabled, and return '1' unconditionally for the
CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_HV_POSSIBLE=n path. All flavors of PPC support for KVM
select MMU_NOTIFIER, and KVM_ARCH_WANT_MMU_NOTIFIER is unconditionally
defined by arch/powerpc/include/asm/kvm_host.h.
Effectively dropping use of KVM_ARCH_WANT_MMU_NOTIFIER will simplify a
future cleanup to turn KVM_ARCH_WANT_MMU_NOTIFIER into a Kconfig, i.e.
will allow combining all of the
#if defined(CONFIG_MMU_NOTIFIER) && defined(KVM_ARCH_WANT_MMU_NOTIFIER)
checks into a single
#ifdef CONFIG_KVM_GENERIC_MMU_NOTIFIER
without having to worry about PPC's "bare" usage of
KVM_ARCH_WANT_MMU_NOTIFIER.

own asm/kprobes.h header and provide an override, but some are missing
the prototype, which causes a warning for the __weak stub implementation:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Remove eventfs_file descriptor
This is the biggest change, and the second part of making eventfs
create its files dynamically.
In 6.6 the first part was added, and that maintained a one to one
mapping between eventfs meta descriptors and the directories and file
inodes and dentries that were dynamically created. The directories
were represented by a eventfs_inode and the files were represented by
a eventfs_file.
In v6.7 the eventfs_file is removed. As all events have the same
directory make up (sched_switch has an "enable", "id", "format", etc
files), the handing of what files are underneath each leaf eventfs
directory is moved back to the tracing subsystem via a callback.
When an event is added to the eventfs, it registers an array of
evenfs_entry's. These hold the names of the files and the callbacks
to call when the file is referenced. The callback gets the name so
that the same callback may be used by multiple files. The callback
then supplies the filesystem_operations structure needed to create
this file.
This has brought the memory footprint of creating multiple eventfs
instances down by 2 megs each!
- User events now has persistent events that are not associated to a
single processes. These are privileged events that hang around even
if no process is attached to them
- Clean up of seq_buf
There's talk about using seq_buf more to replace strscpy() and
friends. But this also requires some minor modifications of seq_buf
to be able to do this
- Expand instance ring buffers individually
Currently if boot up creates an instance, and a trace event is
enabled on that instance, the ring buffer for that instance and the
top level ring buffer are expanded (1.4 MB per CPU). This wastes
memory as this happens when nothing is using the top level instance
- Other minor clean ups and fixes

- Audra Mitchell has fixed issues in the procfs page_owner code's new
timestamping feature which was causing some misbehaviours. In the
series 'Fix page_owner's use of free timestamps'
- Lorenzo Stoakes has fixed the handling of new mappings of sealed
files in the series 'permit write-sealed memfd read-only shared
mappings'
- Mike Kravetz has optimized the hugetlb vmemmap optimization in the
series 'Batch hugetlb vmemmap modification operations'
- Some buffer_head folio conversions and cleanups from Matthew Wilcox
in the series 'Finish the create_empty_buffers() transition'
- As a page allocator performance optimization Huang Ying has added
automatic tuning to the allocator's per-cpu-pages feature, in the
series 'mm: PCP high auto-tuning'
- Roman Gushchin has contributed the patchset 'mm: improve
performance of accounted kernel memory allocations' which improves
their performance by ~30% as measured by a micro-benchmark
- folio conversions from Kefeng Wang in the series 'mm: convert page
cpupid functions to folios'
- Some kmemleak fixups in Liu Shixin's series 'Some bugfix about
kmemleak'
- Qi Zheng has improved our handling of memoryless nodes by keeping
them off the allocation fallback list. This is done in the series
'handle memoryless nodes more appropriately'
- khugepaged conversions from Vishal Moola in the series 'Some
khugepaged folio conversions'"
[ bcachefs conflicts with the dynamically allocated shrinkers have been
resolved as per Stephen Rothwell in
