Linux supports ELF binaries for ~25 years now. a.out coredumping has
bitrotten quite significantly and would need some fixing to get it into
shape again but considering how even the toolchains cannot create a.out
executables in its default configuration, let's deprecate a.out support
and remove it a couple of releases later, instead.

We're (finally) phasing out a.out support for good. As Borislav Petkov
points out, we've supported ELF binaries for about 25 years by now, and
coredumping in particular has bitrotted over the years.
None of the tool chains even support generating a.out binaries any more,
and the plan is to deprecate a.out support entirely for the kernel. But
I want to start with just removing the core dumping code, because I can
still imagine that somebody actually might want to support a.out as a
simpler biinary format.
Particularly if you generate some random binaries on the fly, ELF is a
much more complicated format (admittedly ELF also does have a lot of
toolchain support, mitigating that complexity a lot and you really
should have moved over in the last 25 years).
So it's at least somewhat possible that somebody out there has some
workflow that still involves generating and running a.out executables.
In contrast, it's very unlikely that anybody depends on debugging any
legacy a.out core files. But regardless, I want this phase-out to be
done in two steps, so that we can resurrect a.out support (if needed)
without having to resurrect the core file dumping that is almost
certainly not needed.
Jann Horn pointed to the <asm/a.out-core.h> file that my first trivial
cut at this had missed.
And Alan Cox points out that the a.out binary loader _could_ be done in
user space if somebody wants to, but we might keep just the loader in
the kernel if somebody really wants it, since the loader isn't that big
and has no really odd special cases like the core dumping does.

The kill() syscall operates on process identifiers (pid). After a process
has exited its pid can be reused by another process. If a caller sends a
signal to a reused pid it will end up signaling the wrong process. This
issue has often surfaced and there has been a push to address this problem [1].
This patch uses file descriptors (fd) from proc/<pid> as stable handles on
struct pid. Even if a pid is recycled the handle will not change. The fd
can be used to send signals to the process it refers to.
Thus, the new syscall pidfd_send_signal() is introduced to solve this
problem. Instead of pids it operates on process fds (pidfd).
/* prototype and argument /*
long pidfd_send_signal(int pidfd, int sig, siginfo_t *info, unsigned int flags);
/* syscall number 424 */
The syscall number was chosen to be 424 to align with Arnd's rework in his
y2038 to minimize merge conflicts (cf. [25]).
In addition to the pidfd and signal argument it takes an additional
siginfo_t and flags argument. If the siginfo_t argument is NULL then
pidfd_send_signal() is equivalent to kill(<positive-pid>, <signal>). If it
is not NULL pidfd_send_signal() is equivalent to rt_sigqueueinfo().
The flags argument is added to allow for future extensions of this syscall.
It currently needs to be passed as 0. Failing to do so will cause EINVAL.
/* pidfd_send_signal() replaces multiple pid-based syscalls */
The pidfd_send_signal() syscall currently takes on the job of
rt_sigqueueinfo(2) and parts of the functionality of kill(2), Namely, when a
positive pid is passed to kill(2). It will however be possible to also
replace tgkill(2) and rt_tgsigqueueinfo(2) if this syscall is extended.
/* sending signals to threads (tid) and process groups (pgid) */
Specifically, the pidfd_send_signal() syscall does currently not operate on
process groups or threads. This is left for future extensions.
In order to extend the syscall to allow sending signal to threads and
process groups appropriately named flags (e.g. PIDFD_TYPE_PGID, and
PIDFD_TYPE_TID) should be added. This implies that the flags argument will
determine what is signaled and not the file descriptor itself. Put in other
words, grouping in this api is a property of the flags argument not a
property of the file descriptor (cf. [13]). Clarification for this has been
requested by Eric (cf. [19]).
When appropriate extensions through the flags argument are added then
pidfd_send_signal() can additionally replace the part of kill(2) which
operates on process groups as well as the tgkill(2) and
rt_tgsigqueueinfo(2) syscalls.
How such an extension could be implemented has been very roughly sketched
in [14], [15], and [16]. However, this should not be taken as a commitment
to a particular implementation. There might be better ways to do it.
Right now this is intentionally left out to keep this patchset as simple as
possible (cf. [4]).
/* naming */
The syscall had various names throughout iterations of this patchset:
- procfd_signal()
- procfd_send_signal()
- taskfd_send_signal()
In the last round of reviews it was pointed out that given that if the
flags argument decides the scope of the signal instead of different types
of fds it might make sense to either settle for "procfd_" or "pidfd_" as
prefix. The community was willing to accept either (cf. [17] and [18]).
Given that one developer expressed strong preference for the "pidfd_"
prefix (cf. [13]) and with other developers less opinionated about the name
we should settle for "pidfd_" to avoid further bikeshedding.
The "_send_signal" suffix was chosen to reflect the fact that the syscall
takes on the job of multiple syscalls. It is therefore intentional that the
name is not reminiscent of neither kill(2) nor rt_sigqueueinfo(2). Not the
fomer because it might imply that pidfd_send_signal() is a replacement for
kill(2), and not the latter because it is a hassle to remember the correct
spelling - especially for non-native speakers - and because it is not
descriptive enough of what the syscall actually does. The name
"pidfd_send_signal" makes it very clear that its job is to send signals.
/* zombies */
Zombies can be signaled just as any other process. No special error will be
reported since a zombie state is an unreliable state (cf. [3]). However,
this can be added as an extension through the @flags argument if the need
ever arises.
/* cross-namespace signals */
The patch currently enforces that the signaler and signalee either are in
the same pid namespace or that the signaler's pid namespace is an ancestor
of the signalee's pid namespace. This is done for the sake of simplicity
and because it is unclear to what values certain members of struct
siginfo_t would need to be set to (cf. [5], [6]).
/* compat syscalls */
It became clear that we would like to avoid adding compat syscalls
(cf. [7]). The compat syscall handling is now done in kernel/signal.c
itself by adding __copy_siginfo_from_user_generic() which lets us avoid
compat syscalls (cf. [8]). It should be noted that the addition of
__copy_siginfo_from_user_any() is caused by a bug in the original
implementation of rt_sigqueueinfo(2) (cf. 12).
With upcoming rework for syscall handling things might improve
significantly (cf. [11]) and __copy_siginfo_from_user_any() will not gain
any additional callers.
/* testing */
This patch was tested on x64 and x86.
/* userspace usage */
An asciinema recording for the basic functionality can be found under [9].

Q-01: (Florian Weimer [20], Andrew Morton [21])
What happens when the target process has exited?
A-01: Sending the signal will fail with ESRCH (cf. [22]).
Q-02: (Andrew Morton [21])
Is the task_struct pinned by the fd?
A-02: No. A reference to struct pid is kept. struct pid - as far as I
understand - was created exactly for the reason to not require to
pin struct task_struct (cf. [22]).
Q-03: (Andrew Morton [21])
Does the entire procfs directory remain visible? Just one entry
within it?
A-03: The same thing that happens right now when you hold a file descriptor
to /proc/<pid> open (cf. [22]).
Q-04: (Andrew Morton [21])
Does the pid remain reserved?
A-04: No. This patchset guarantees a stable handle not that pids are not
recycled (cf. [22]).
Q-05: (Andrew Morton [21])
Do attempts to signal that fd return errors?
A-05: See {Q,A}-01.
Q-06: (Andrew Morton [22])
Is there a cleaner way of obtaining the fd? Another syscall perhaps.
A-06: Userspace can already trivially retrieve file descriptors from procfs
so this is something that we will need to support anyway. Hence,
there's no immediate need to add another syscalls just to make
pidfd_send_signal() not dependent on the presence of procfs. However,
adding a syscalls to get such file descriptors is planned for a
future patchset (cf. [22]).
Q-07: (Andrew Morton [21] and others)
This fd-for-a-process sounds like a handy thing and people may well
think up other uses for it in the future, probably unrelated to
signals. Are the code and the interface designed to permit such
future applications?
A-07: Yes (cf. [22]).
Q-08: (Andrew Morton [21] and others)
Now I think about it, why a new syscall? This thing is looking
rather like an ioctl?
A-08: This has been extensively discussed. It was agreed that a syscall is
preferred for a variety or reasons. Here are just a few taken from
prior threads. Syscalls are safer than ioctl()s especially when
signaling to fds. Processes are a core kernel concept so a syscall
seems more appropriate. The layout of the syscall with its four
arguments would require the addition of a custom struct for the
ioctl() thereby causing at least the same amount or even more
complexity for userspace than a simple syscall. The new syscall will
replace multiple other pid-based syscalls (see description above).
The file-descriptors-for-processes concept introduced with this
syscall will be extended with other syscalls in the future. See also
[22], [23] and various other threads already linked in here.
Q-09: (Florian Weimer [24])
What happens if you use the new interface with an O_PATH descriptor?
A-09:
pidfds opened as O_PATH fds cannot be used to send signals to a
process (cf. [2]). Signaling processes through pidfds is the
equivalent of writing to a file. Thus, this is not an operation that
operates "purely at the file descriptor level" as required by the
open(2) manpage. See also [4].

ftrace_call_replace()
Arnd reported the following compiler warning:
arch/x86/kernel/ftrace.c:669:23: error: 'ftrace_jmp_replace' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function]
The ftrace_jmp_replace() function now only has a single user and should be
simply moved by that user. But looking at the code, it shows that
ftrace_jmp_replace() is similar to ftrace_call_replace() except that instead
of using the opcode of 0xe8 it uses 0xe9. It makes more sense to consolidate
that function into one implementation that both ftrace_jmp_replace() and
ftrace_call_replace() use by passing in the op code separate.
The structure in ftrace_code_union is also modified to replace the "e8"
field with the more appropriate name "op".

The legacy hypercall handlers were originally added with
a comment explaining that "copying the argument structures in
HYPERVISOR_event_channel_op() and HYPERVISOR_physdev_op() into the local
variable is sufficiently safe" and only made sure to not write
past the end of the argument structure, the checks in linux/string.h
disagree with that, when link-time optimizations are used:
In function 'memcpy',
inlined from 'pirq_query_unmask' at drivers/xen/fallback.c:53:2,
inlined from '__startup_pirq' at drivers/xen/events/events_base.c:529:2,

include/linux/string.h:350:3: error: call to '__read_overflow2' declared with attribute error: detected read beyond size of object passed as 2nd parameter
__read_overflow2();
^
Further research turned out that only Xen 3.0.2 or earlier required the
fallback at all, while all versions in use today don't need it.
As far as I can tell, it is not even possible to run a mainline kernel
on those old Xen releases, at the time when they were in use, only
a patched kernel was supported anyway.

Every in-kernel use of this function defined it to KERNEL_DS (either as
an actual define, or as an inline function). It's an entirely
historical artifact, and long long long ago used to actually read the
segment selector valueof '%ds' on x86.
Which in the kernel is always KERNEL_DS.
Inspired by a patch from Jann Horn that just did this for a very small
subset of users (the ones in fs/), along with Al who suggested a script.
I then just took it to the logical extreme and removed all the remaining
gunk.
Roughly scripted with
git grep -l '(get_ds())' -- :^tools/ | xargs sed -i 's/(get_ds())/(KERNEL_DS)/'
git grep -lw 'get_ds' -- :^tools/ | xargs sed -i '/^#define get_ds()/d'
plus manual fixups to remove a few unusual usage patterns, the couple of
inline function cases and to fix up a comment that had become stale.
The 'get_ds()' function remains in an x86 kvm selftest, since in user
space it actually does something relevant.

This adds a warning (once) for any kernel dereference that has a user
exception handler, but accesses a non-canonical address. It basically
is a simpler - and more limited - version of commit 9da3f2b74054
("x86/fault: BUG() when uaccess helpers fault on kernel addresses") that
got reverted.
Note that unlike that original commit, this only causes a warning,
because there are real situations where we currently can do this
(notably speculative argument fetching for uprobes etc). Also, unlike
that original commit, this _only_ triggers for #GP accesses, so the
cases of valid kernel pointers that cross into a non-mapped page aren't
affected.
The intent of this is two-fold:
- the uprobe/tracing accesses really do need to be more careful. In
particular, from a portability standpoint it's just wrong to think
that "a pointer is a pointer", and use the same logic for any random
pointer value you find on the stack. It may _work_ on x86-64, but it
doesn't necessarily work on other architectures (where the same
pointer value can be either a kernel pointer _or_ a user pointer, and
you really need to be much more careful in how you try to access it)
The warning can hopefully end up being a reminder that just any
random pointer access won't do.
- Kees in particular wanted a way to actually report invalid uses of
wild pointers to user space accessors, instead of just silently
failing them. Automated fuzzers want a way to get reports if the
kernel ever uses invalid values that the fuzzer fed it.
The non-canonical address range is a fair chunk of the address space,
and with this you can teach syzkaller to feed in invalid pointer
values and find cases where we do not properly validate user
addresses (possibly due to bad uses of "set_fs()").

If we have fixed user buffers, we can map them into the kernel when we
setup the io_uring. That avoids the need to do get_user_pages() for
each and every IO.
To utilize this feature, the application must call io_uring_register()
after having setup an io_uring instance, passing in
IORING_REGISTER_BUFFERS as the opcode. The argument must be a pointer to
an iovec array, and the nr_args should contain how many iovecs the
application wishes to map.
If successful, these buffers are now mapped into the kernel, eligible
for IO. To use these fixed buffers, the application must use the
IORING_OP_READ_FIXED and IORING_OP_WRITE_FIXED opcodes, and then
set sqe->index to the desired buffer index. sqe->addr..sqe->addr+seq->len
must point to somewhere inside the indexed buffer.
The application may register buffers throughout the lifetime of the
io_uring instance. It can call io_uring_register() with
IORING_UNREGISTER_BUFFERS as the opcode to unregister the current set of
buffers, and then register a new set. The application need not
unregister buffers explicitly before shutting down the io_uring
instance.
It's perfectly valid to setup a larger buffer, and then sometimes only
use parts of it for an IO. As long as the range is within the originally
mapped region, it will work just fine.
For now, buffers must not be file backed. If file backed buffers are
passed in, the registration will fail with -1/EOPNOTSUPP. This
restriction may be relaxed in the future.
RLIMIT_MEMLOCK is used to check how much memory we can pin. A somewhat
arbitrary 1G per buffer size is also imposed.

The submission queue (SQ) and completion queue (CQ) rings are shared
between the application and the kernel. This eliminates the need to
copy data back and forth to submit and complete IO.
IO submissions use the io_uring_sqe data structure, and completions
are generated in the form of io_uring_cqe data structures. The SQ
ring is an index into the io_uring_sqe array, which makes it possible
to submit a batch of IOs without them being contiguous in the ring.
The CQ ring is always contiguous, as completion events are inherently
unordered, and hence any io_uring_cqe entry can point back to an
arbitrary submission.
Two new system calls are added for this:
io_uring_setup(entries, params)
Sets up an io_uring instance for doing async IO. On success,
returns a file descriptor that the application can mmap to
gain access to the SQ ring, CQ ring, and io_uring_sqes.
io_uring_enter(fd, to_submit, min_complete, flags, sigset, sigsetsize)
Initiates IO against the rings mapped to this fd, or waits for
them to complete, or both. The behavior is controlled by the
parameters passed in. If 'to_submit' is non-zero, then we'll
try and submit new IO. If IORING_ENTER_GETEVENTS is set, the
kernel will wait for 'min_complete' events, if they aren't
already available. It's valid to set IORING_ENTER_GETEVENTS
and 'min_complete' == 0 at the same time, this allows the
kernel to return already completed events without waiting
for them. This is useful only for polling, as for IRQ
driven IO, the application can just check the CQ ring
without entering the kernel.
With this setup, it's possible to do async IO with a single system
call. Future developments will enable polled IO with this interface,
and polled submission as well. The latter will enable an application
to do IO without doing ANY system calls at all.
For IRQ driven IO, an application only needs to enter the kernel for
completions if it wants to wait for them to occur.
Each io_uring is backed by a workqueue, to support buffered async IO
as well. We will only punt to an async context if the command would
need to wait for IO on the device side. Any data that can be accessed
directly in the page cache is done inline. This avoids the slowness
issue of usual threadpools, since cached data is accessed as quickly
as a sync interface.

From networking side, there are numerous attempts to get rid of indirect
calls in fast-path wherever feasible in order to avoid the cost of
retpolines, for example, just to name a few:
* 283c16a2dfd3 ("indirect call wrappers: helpers to speed-up indirect calls of builtin")
* aaa5d90b395a ("net: use indirect call wrappers at GRO network layer")
* 028e0a476684 ("net: use indirect call wrappers at GRO transport layer")
* 356da6d0cde3 ("dma-mapping: bypass indirect calls for dma-direct")
* 09772d92cd5a ("bpf: avoid retpoline for lookup/update/delete calls on maps")
* 10870dd89e95 ("netfilter: nf_tables: add direct calls for all builtin expressions")
[...]
Recent work on XDP from Björn and Magnus additionally found that manually
transforming the XDP return code switch statement with more than 5 cases
into if-else combination would result in a considerable speedup in XDP
layer due to avoidance of indirect calls in CONFIG_RETPOLINE enabled
builds. On i40e driver with XDP prog attached, a 20-26% speedup has been
observed [0]. Aside from XDP, there are many other places later in the
networking stack's critical path with similar switch-case
processing. Rather than fixing every XDP-enabled driver and locations in
stack by hand, it would be good to instead raise the limit where gcc would
emit expensive indirect calls from the switch under retpolines and stick
with the default as-is in case of !retpoline configured kernels. This would
also have the advantage that for archs where this is not necessary, we let
compiler select the underlying target optimization for these constructs and
avoid potential slow-downs by if-else hand-rewrite.
In case of gcc, this setting is controlled by case-values-threshold which
has an architecture global default that selects 4 or 5 (latter if target
does not have a case insn that compares the bounds) where some arch back
ends like arm64 or s390 override it with their own target hooks, for
example, in gcc commit db7a90aa0de5 ("S/390: Disable prediction of indirect
branches") the threshold pretty much disables jump tables by limit of 20
under retpoline builds. Comparing gcc's and clang's default code
generation on x86-64 under O2 level with retpoline build results in the
following outcome for 5 switch cases:

Raising the cases to a high number (e.g. 100) will still result in similar
code generation pattern with clang and gcc as above, in other words clang
generally turns off jump table emission by having an extra expansion pass
under retpoline build to turn indirectbr instructions from their IR into
switch instructions as a built-in -mno-jump-table lowering of a switch (in
this case, even if IR input already contained an indirect branch).
For gcc, adding --param=case-values-threshold=20 as in similar fashion as
s390 in order to raise the limit for x86 retpoline enabled builds results
in a small vmlinux size increase of only 0.13% (before=18,027,528
after=18,051,192). For clang this option is ignored due to i) not being
needed as mentioned and ii) not having above cmdline
parameter. Non-retpoline-enabled builds with gcc continue to use the
default case-values-threshold setting, so nothing changes here.

Make kernfs support superblock creation/mount/remount with fs_context.
This requires that sysfs, cgroup and intel_rdt, which are built on kernfs,
be made to support fs_context also.
Notes:
(1) A kernfs_fs_context struct is created to wrap fs_context and the
kernfs mount parameters are moved in here (or are in fs_context).
(2) kernfs_mount{,_ns}() are made into kernfs_get_tree(). The extra
namespace tag parameter is passed in the context if desired
(3) kernfs_free_fs_context() is provided as a destructor for the
kernfs_fs_context struct, but for the moment it does nothing except
get called in the right places.
(4) sysfs doesn't wrap kernfs_fs_context since it has no parameters to
pass, but possibly this should be done anyway in case someone wants to
add a parameter in future.
(5) A cgroup_fs_context struct is created to wrap kernfs_fs_context and
the cgroup v1 and v2 mount parameters are all moved there.
(6) cgroup1 parameter parsing error messages are now handled by invalf(),
which allows userspace to collect them directly.
(7) cgroup1 parameter cleanup is now done in the context destructor rather
than in the mount/get_tree and remount functions.
Weirdies:
(*) cgroup_do_get_tree() calls cset_cgroup_from_root() with locks held,
but then uses the resulting pointer after dropping the locks. I'm
told this is okay and needs commenting.
(*) The cgroup refcount web. This really needs documenting.
(*) cgroup2 only has one root?
Add a suggestion from Thomas Gleixner in which the RDT enablement code is
placed into its own function.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/playground into timers/2038
Pull additional syscall ABI cleanup for y2038 from Arnd Bergmann:
This is a follow-up to the y2038 syscall patches already merged in the tip
tree. As the final 32-bit RISC-V syscall ABI is still being decided on,
this is the last chance to make a few corrections to leave out interfaces
based on 32-bit time_t along with the old off_t and rlimit types.
The series achieves this in a few steps:
- A couple of bug fixes for minor regressions I introduced
in the original series
- A couple of older patches from Yury Norov that I had never
merged in the past, these fix up the openat/open_by_handle_at and
getrlimit/setrlimit syscalls to disallow the old versions of off_t
and rlimit.
- Hiding the deprecated system calls behind an #ifdef in
include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h
- Change arch/riscv to drop all these ABIs.
Originally, the plan was to also leave these out on C-Sky, but that now
has a glibc port that uses the older interfaces, so we need to leave
them in place.

In
c7d606f560e4 ("x86/mce: Improve error message when kernel cannot recover")
a case was added for a machine check caused by a DATA access to poison
memory from the kernel. A case should have been added also for an
uncorrectable error during an instruction fetch in the kernel.
Add that extra case so the error message now reads:

When calling __put_user(foo(), ptr), the __put_user() macro would call
foo() in between __uaccess_begin() and __uaccess_end(). If that code
were buggy, then those bugs would be run without SMAP protection.
Fortunately, there seem to be few instances of the problem in the
kernel. Nevertheless, __put_user() should be fixed to avoid doing this.
Therefore, evaluate __put_user()'s argument before setting AC.
This issue was noticed when an objtool hack by Peter Zijlstra complained
about genregs_get() and I compared the assembly output to the C source.

This reverts commit 9da3f2b74054406f87dff7101a569217ffceb29b.
It was well-intentioned, but wrong. Overriding the exception tables for
instructions for random reasons is just wrong, and that is what the new
code did.
It caused problems for tracing, and it caused problems for strncpy_from_user(),
because the new checks made perfectly valid use cases break, rather than
catch things that did bad things.
Unchecked user space accesses are a problem, but that's not a reason to
add invalid checks that then people have to work around with silly flags
(in this case, that 'kernel_uaccess_faults_ok' flag, which is just an
odd way to say "this commit was wrong" and was sprinked into random
places to hide the wrongness).
The real fix to unchecked user space accesses is to get rid of the
special "let's not check __get_user() and __put_user() at all" logic.
Make __{get|put}_user() be just aliases to the regular {get|put}_user()
functions, and make it impossible to access user space without having
the proper checks in places.
The raison d'être of the special double-underscore versions used to be
that the range check was expensive, and if you did multiple user
accesses, you'd do the range check up front (like the signal frame
handling code, for example). But SMAP (on x86) and PAN (on ARM) have
made that optimization pointless, because the _real_ expense is the "set
CPU flag to allow user space access".
Do let's not break the valid cases to catch invalid cases that shouldn't
even exist.

Three conflicts, one of which, for marvell10g.c is non-trivial and
requires some follow-up from Heiner or someone else.
The issue is that Heiner converted the marvell10g driver over to
use the generic c45 code as much as possible.
However, in 'net' a bug fix appeared which makes sure that a new
local mask (MDIO_AN_10GBT_CTRL_ADV_NBT_MASK) with value 0x01e0

Currently, the address range calculation for file-based filters works as
long as the vma that maps the matching part of the object file starts
from offset zero into the file (vm_pgoff==0). Otherwise, the resulting
filter range would be off by vm_pgoff pages. Another related problem is
that in case of a partially matching vma, that is, a vma that matches
part of a filter region, the filter range size wouldn't be adjusted.
Fix the arithmetics around address filter range calculations, taking
into account vma offset, so that the entire calculation is done before
the filter configuration is passed to the PMU drivers instead of having
those drivers do the final bit of arithmetics.

Previously, commit 7dcd57552008 ("x86/kvm/mmu: check if tdp/shadow
MMU reconfiguration is needed") offered some optimization to avoid
the unnecessary reconfiguration. Yet one scenario is broken - when
cpuid changes VM's maximum physical address width, reconfiguration
is needed to reset the reserved bits. Also, the TDP may need to
reset its shadow_root_level when this value is changed.
To fix this, a new field, maxphyaddr, is introduced in the extended
role structure to keep track of the configured guest physical address
width.

to not run in 5-level paging mode. Yet boot_cpu_data is queried by
do_cpuid_ent() as the host capability later when creating vcpus, and Qemu
will not be able to detect this feature and create VMs with LA57 feature.
As discussed earlier, VMs can still benefit from extended linear address
width, e.g. to enhance features like ASLR. So we would like to fix this,
by return the true hardware capability when Qemu queries.

Commit 14c07ad89f4d ("x86/kvm/mmu: introduce guest_mmu") brought one subtle
change: previously, when switching back from L2 to L1, we were resetting
MMU hooks (like mmu->get_cr3()) in kvm_init_mmu() called from
nested_vmx_load_cr3() and now we do that in nested_ept_uninit_mmu_context()
when we re-target vcpu->arch.mmu pointer.
The change itself looks logical: if nested_ept_init_mmu_context() changes
something than nested_ept_uninit_mmu_context() restores it back. There is,
however, one thing: the following call chain:
nested_vmx_load_cr3()
kvm_mmu_new_cr3()
__kvm_mmu_new_cr3()
fast_cr3_switch()
cached_root_available()
now happens with MMU hooks pointing to the new MMU (root MMU in our case)
while previously it was happening with the old one. cached_root_available()
tries to stash current root but it is incorrect to read current CR3 with
mmu->get_cr3(), we need to use old_mmu->get_cr3() which in case we're
switching from L2 to L1 is guest_mmu. (BTW, in shadow page tables case this
is a non-issue because we don't switch MMU).
While we could've tried to guess that we're switching between MMUs and call
the right ->get_cr3() from cached_root_available() this seems to be overly
complicated. Instead, just stash the corresponding CR3 when setting
root_hpa and make cached_root_available() use the stashed value.

The invariant TSC bit has the following meaning:
"The time stamp counter in newer processors may support an enhancement,
referred to as invariant TSC. Processor's support for invariant TSC
is indicated by CPUID.80000007H:EDX[8]. The invariant TSC will run
at a constant rate in all ACPI P-, C-. and T-states. This is the
architectural behavior moving forward. On processors with invariant TSC
support, the OS may use the TSC for wall clock timer services (instead
of ACPI or HPET timers). TSC reads are much more efficient and do not
incur the overhead associated with a ring transition or access to a
platform resource."
IOW, TSC does not change frequency. In such case, and with
TSC scaling hardware available to handle migration, it is possible
to use the TSC clocksource directly, whose system calls are
faster.
Reduce the rating of kvmclock clocksource to allow TSC clocksource
to be the default if invariant TSC is exposed.

Paolo expressed a concern that kvm_mmu_zap_mmio_sptes() could have a
quadratic runtime[1], i.e. restarting the spte walk while zapping only
MMIO sptes could result in re-walking large portions of the list over
and over due to the non-MMIO sptes encountered before the restart not
being removed.
At the time, the concern was legitimate as the walk was restarted when
any spte was zapped. But that is no longer the case as the walk is now
restarted iff one or more children have been zapped, which is necessary
because zapping children makes the active_mmu_pages list unstable.
Furthermore, it should be impossible for an MMIO spte to have children,
i.e. zapping an MMIO spte should never result in zapping children. In
other words, kvm_mmu_zap_mmio_sptes() should never restart its walk, and
so should always execute in linear time. WARN if this assertion fails.
Although it should never be needed, leave the restart logic in place.
In normal operation, the cost is at worst an extra CMP+Jcc, and if for
some reason the list does become unstable, not restarting would likely
crash KVM, or worse, the kernel.

The return value of kvm_mmu_prepare_zap_page() has evolved to become
overloaded to convey two separate pieces of information. 1) was at
least one page zapped and 2) has the list of MMU pages become unstable.
In it's original incarnation (as kvm_mmu_zap_page()), there was no
return value at all. Commit 0738541396be ("KVM: MMU: awareness of new
kvm_mmu_zap_page behaviour") added a return value in preparation for
commit 4731d4c7a077 ("KVM: MMU: out of sync shadow core"). Although
the return value was of type 'int', it was actually used as a boolean
to indicate whether or not active_mmu_pages may have become unstable due
to zapping children. Walking a list with list_for_each_entry_safe()
only protects against deleting/moving the current entry, i.e. zapping a
child page would break iteration due to modifying any number of entries.
Later, commit 60c8aec6e2c9 ("KVM: MMU: use page array in unsync walk")
modified mmu_zap_unsync_children() to return an approximation of the
number of children zapped. This was not intentional, it was simply a
side effect of how the code was written.
The unintented side affect was then morphed into an actual feature by
commit 77662e0028c7 ("KVM: MMU: fix kvm_mmu_zap_page() and its calling
path"), which modified kvm_mmu_change_mmu_pages() to use the number of
zapped pages when determining the number of MMU pages in use by the VM.
Finally, commit 54a4f0239f2e ("KVM: MMU: make kvm_mmu_zap_page() return
the number of pages it actually freed") added the initial page to the
return value to make its behavior more consistent with what most users
would expect. Incorporating the initial parent page in the return value
of kvm_mmu_zap_page() breaks the original usage of restarting a list
walk on a non-zero return value to handle a potentially unstable list,
i.e. walks will unnecessarily restart when any page is zapped.
Fix this by restoring the original behavior of kvm_mmu_zap_page(), i.e.
return a boolean to indicate that the list may be unstable and move the
number of zapped children to a dedicated parameter. Since the majority
of callers to kvm_mmu_prepare_zap_page() don't care about either return
value, preserve the current definition of kvm_mmu_prepare_zap_page() by
making it a wrapper of a new helper, __kvm_mmu_prepare_zap_page(). This
avoids having to update every call site and also provides cleaner code
for functions that only care about the number of pages zapped.

Call cond_resched_lock() when zapping all sptes to reschedule if needed
or to release and reacquire mmu_lock in case of contention. There is no
need to flush or zap when temporarily dropping mmu_lock as zapping all
sptes is done only when the owning userspace VMM has exited or when the
VM is being destroyed, i.e. there is no interplay with memslots or MMIO
generations to worry about.
Be paranoid and restart the walk if mmu_lock is dropped to avoid any
potential issues with consuming a stale iterator. The overhead in doing
so is negligible as at worst there will be a few root shadow pages at
the head of the list, i.e. the iterator is essentially the head of the
list already.

...to guarantee forward progress. When zapped, root pages are marked
invalid and moved to the head of the active pages list until they are
explicitly freed. Theoretically, having unzappable root pages at the
head of the list could prevent kvm_mmu_zap_all() from making forward
progress were a future patch to add a loop restart after processing a
page, e.g. to drop mmu_lock on contention.
Although kvm_mmu_prepare_zap_page() can theoretically take action on
invalid pages, e.g. to zap unsync children, functionally it's not
necessary (root pages will be re-zapped when freed) and practically
speaking the odds of e.g. @unsync or @unsync_children becoming %true
while zapping all pages is basically nil.

Revert to a slow kvm_mmu_zap_all() for kvm_arch_flush_shadow_all().
Flushing all shadow entries is only done during VM teardown, i.e.
kvm_arch_flush_shadow_all() is only called when the associated MM struct
is being released or when the VM instance is being freed.
Although the performance of teardown itself isn't critical, KVM should
still voluntarily schedule to play nice with the rest of the kernel;
but that can be done without the fast invalidate mechanism in a future
patch.
