LoongArch: Consolidate CPU names in /proc/cpuinfo
Some processors have no IOCSR.VENDOR and IOCSR.CPUNAME, some processors have these registers but there is no valid information. Consolidate CPU names in /proc/cpuinfo: 1. Add "PRID" to display the PRID & Core-Name; 2. Let "Model Name" display "Unknown" if no valid name. Signed-off-by: Huacai Chen <chenhuacai@loongson.cn> |

LoongArch: Use UAPI types in ptrace UAPI header
The kernel UAPI headers already contain fixed-width integer types, there
is no need to rely on the libc types. There may not be a libc available
or the libc may not provides the <stdint.h>, like for example on nolibc.
This also aligns the header with the rest of the LoongArch UAPI headers.

LoongArch: Use correct accessor to read FWPC/MWPC
CSR.FWPC and CSR.MWPC are 32bit registers, so use csr_read32() rather
than csr_read64() to read the values of FWPC/MWPC.

LoongArch: Refine the init_hw_perf_events() function
(1) Use the existing CPUCFG6_PMNUM_SHIFT macro definition instead of the magic value 4 to get the PMU number. (2) Detect the value of PMU bits via CPUCFG instruction according to the ISA manual instead of hard-coded as 64, because the value may be different for various micro-architectures.

LoongArch: Let {pte,pmd}_modify() record the status of _PAGE_DIRTY
Now if the PTE/PMD is dirty with _PAGE_DIRTY but without _PAGE_MODIFIED,
after {pte,pmd}_modify() we lose _PAGE_DIRTY, then {pte,pmd}_dirty()
return false and lead to data loss. This can happen in certain scenarios
such as HW PTW doesn't set _PAGE_MODIFIED automatically, so here we need
_PAGE_MODIFIED to record the dirty status (_PAGE_DIRTY).
The new modification involves checking whether the original PTE/PMD has
the _PAGE_DIRTY flag. If it exists, the _PAGE_MODIFIED bit is also set,
ensuring that the {pte,pmd}_dirty() interface can always return accurate
information.

LoongArch: Consolidate early_ioremap()/ioremap_prot()
1. Use phys_addr_t instead of u64, which can work for both 32/64 bits. 2. Check whether the input physical address is above TO_PHYS_MASK (and return NULL if yes) for the DMW version. Note: In theory early_ioremap() also need the TO_PHYS_MASK checking, but the UEFI BIOS pass some DMW virtual addresses.

LoongArch: Clarify 3 MSG interrupt features
LoongArch's MSG interrupt features are used across multiple subsystems. Clarify these features to avoid misuse, existing users will be adjusted if necessary. MSGINT: Infrastructure, means the CPU core supports message interupts. Indicated by CPUCFG1.MSGINT. AVECINT: AVEC interrupt controller based on MSGINT, means the CPU chip supports direct message interrupts. Indicated by IOCSR.FEATURES.DMSI. REDIRECTINT: REDIRECT interrupt controller based on MSGINT and AVECINT, means the CPU chip supports redirect message interrupts. Indicated by IOCSR.FEATURES.RMSI. For example: Loongson-3A5000/3C5000 doesn't support MSGINT/AVECINT/REDIRECTINT; Loongson-3A6000 supports MSGINT but doesn't support AVECINT/REDIRECTINT; Loongson-3C6000 supports MSGINT/AVECINT/REDIRECTINT.

guest_memfd:
* Add support for host userspace mapping of guest_memfd-backed memory for VM types that do NOT use support KVM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTE_PRIVATE (which isn't precisely the same thing as CoCo VMs, since x86's SEV-MEM and SEV-ES have no way to detect private vs. shared). This lays the groundwork for removal of guest memory from the kernel direct map, as well as for limited mmap() for guest_memfd-backed memory. For more information see: * |

LoongArch: Handle new atomic instructions for probes
The atomic instructions sc.q, llacq.{w/d}, screl.{w/d} were newly added
in the LoongArch Reference Manual v1.10, it is necessary to handle them
in insns_not_supported() to avoid putting a breakpoint in the middle of
a ll/sc atomic sequence, otherwise it will loop forever for kprobes and
uprobes.

LoongArch: Add ELF binary support for kexec_file
This patch creates kexec_elf_ops to load ELF binary file for
kexec_file_load() syscall.
However, for `kbuf->memsz` and `kbuf->buf_min`, special handling is
required, and the generic `kexec_elf_load()` cannot be used directly.
$ readelf -l vmlinux

phdr->p_paddr should have been a physical address, but it is a virtual
address on the current LoongArch. This will cause kexec_file to fail
when loading the kernel and need to be converted to a physical address.
From the above MemSiz, it can be seen that 0x287a0d8 isn't page aligned.
Although kexec_add_buffer() will perform PAGE_SIZE alignment on kbuf->
memsz, there is still a stampeding in the loaded kernel space and initrd
space. The initrd resolution failed when starting the second kernel.
It can be known from the link script vmlinux.lds.S that,
BSS_SECTION(0, SZ_64K, 8)
. = ALIGN(PECOFF_SEGMENT_ALIGN);
It needs to be aligned according to SZ_64K, so that after alignment, its
size is consistent with _kernel_asize.
The basic usage (vmlinux):
1) Load second kernel image:
# kexec -s -l vmlinux --initrd=initrd.img --reuse-cmdline
2) Startup second kernel:
# kexec -e

LoongArch: Add EFI binary support for kexec_file
This patch creates kexec_efi_ops to load EFI binary file for kexec_file_load() syscall. The efi_kexec_load() as two parts: - the first part loads the kernel image (vmlinuz.efi or vmlinux.efi) - the second part loads other segments (e.g: initrd, cmdline, etc) Currently, pez (vmlinuz.efi) and pei (vmlinux.efi) format images are supported. The basic usage (vmlinuz.efi or vmlinux.efi): 1) Load second kernel image: # kexec -s -l vmlinuz.efi --initrd=initrd.img --reuse-cmdline 2) Startup second kernel: # kexec -e Signed-off-by: Youling Tang <tangyouling@kylinos.cn> Signed-off-by: Huacai Chen <chenhuacai@loongson.cn> |

A set of changes to consolidate the generic TIF bits accross architectures
All architectures define the same set of generic TIF bits. This makes it pointlessly hard to add a new generic TIF bit or to change an existing one. Provide a generic variant and convert the architectures which utilize the generic entry code over to use it. The TIF space is divided into 16 generic bits and 16 architecture specific bits, which turned out to provide enough space on both sides. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCgAxFiEEQp8+kY+LLUocC4bMphj1TA10mKEFAmjaP78THHRnbHhAbGlu dXRyb25peC5kZQAKCRCmGPVMDXSYoTKyD/9NEg3DiN6aM959o1MhvhDk7jNdECXm QOvZ85wJYhCv3Pb7RSgMxJL/dR9aWV2b24TSzEeki0awbR4nPeUz82vExmgS7rWX 9rQLPrOZsrYd76IcAVoV5Ua/g48c+9TM8kLzoZFa9JEYMPmyTEiA3gy4bgab/aov L2b903ZrCNkWRKM1Wz5V8xdyPEzhE+cLhbWoPbeCqfzxqbv4+WWKQlPmqamQw+yq /61Xhq0tmx3+4hn1IB/Rc8yMTbAK0EwN7SHM+l7yaJ3ijlkGSele4S3mKAHv2I3c vODIFwdQ8pRbC1C5eMBnUKRm7Cmf+8CB3m+OIA5ghj10TPFiTUzQ6iG6nUSVniJm QB21LHYSWroeQBRibnT5k7RiW5QjtTQmcsjvO7S2rZ/7CkMr7LMu6kN1P0TSiOvc SKxs3MO72KaRU/JrEjLqvT2tvdpg2hpffg69U0jA1xCeFULE1jrqo3GwL8dPDk7z zKbC73JNg4QJDdi+hIn5nl0fRGVszLzkDum5eyCpCLY/W7BSiQ7q/ayzt9upsSOm uc7sqeIgelQMRDMoMNcQUsMnApT0JHOS74WQ03SfahZESj8eFoOb8pr7vaqu4lfi 6LV4fpwZPBTMDcQ36r2JLuUTqHNHNtWn4xXjQ72ngovIVUL9A2H0DqK+1JhLJ6yX tknZ9WVmWVf+JQ== =6L98 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'core-core-2025-09-29' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull TIF bit unification updates from Thomas Gleixner: "A set of changes to consolidate the generic TIF (thread info flag) bits accross architectures.

kasan: introduce ARCH_DEFER_KASAN and unify static key across modes
Patch series "kasan: unify kasan_enabled() and remove arch-specific
implementations", v6.
This patch series addresses the fragmentation in KASAN initialization
across architectures by introducing a unified approach that eliminates
duplicate static keys and arch-specific kasan_arch_is_ready()
implementations.
The core issue is that different architectures have inconsistent approaches
to KASAN readiness tracking:
- PowerPC, LoongArch, and UML arch, each implement own kasan_arch_is_ready()
- Only HW_TAGS mode had a unified static key (kasan_flag_enabled)
- Generic and SW_TAGS modes relied on arch-specific solutions
or always-on behavior
This patch (of 2):
Introduce CONFIG_ARCH_DEFER_KASAN to identify architectures [1] that need
to defer KASAN initialization until shadow memory is properly set up, and
unify the static key infrastructure across all KASAN modes.
[1] PowerPC, UML, LoongArch selects ARCH_DEFER_KASAN.
The core issue is that different architectures haveinconsistent approaches
to KASAN readiness tracking:
- PowerPC, LoongArch, and UML arch, each implement own
kasan_arch_is_ready()
- Only HW_TAGS mode had a unified static key (kasan_flag_enabled)
- Generic and SW_TAGS modes relied on arch-specific solutions or always-on
behavior
This patch addresses the fragmentation in KASAN initialization across
architectures by introducing a unified approach that eliminates duplicate
static keys and arch-specific kasan_arch_is_ready() implementations.
Let's replace kasan_arch_is_ready() with existing kasan_enabled() check,
which examines the static key being enabled if arch selects
ARCH_DEFER_KASAN or has HW_TAGS mode support. For other arch,
kasan_enabled() checks the enablement during compile time.
Now KASAN users can use a single kasan_enabled() check everywhere.

LoongArch: KVM: Fix VM migration failure with PTW enabled
With PTW disabled system, bit _PAGE_DIRTY is a HW bit for page writing. However with PTW enabled system, bit _PAGE_WRITE is also a "HW bit" for page writing, because hardware synchronizes _PAGE_WRITE to _PAGE_DIRTY automatically. Previously, _PAGE_WRITE is treated as a SW bit to record the page writeable attribute for the fast page fault handling in the secondary MMU, however with PTW enabled machine, this bit is used by HW already (so setting it will silence the TLB modify exception). Here define KVM_PAGE_WRITEABLE with the SW bit _PAGE_MODIFIED, so that it can work on both PTW disabled and enabled machines. And for HW write bits, both _PAGE_DIRTY and _PAGE_WRITE are set or clear together.

LoongArch: Increase COMMAND_LINE_SIZE up to 4096
The default COMMAND_LINE_SIZE of 512, inherited from asm-generic, is too small for modern use cases. For example, kdump configurations or extensive debugging parameters can easily exceed this limit. Therefore, increase the command line size to 4096 bytes, aligning LoongArch with the MIPS architecture. This change follows a broader trend among architectures to raise this limit to support modern needs; for instance, PowerPC increased its value for similar reasons in the commit |

LoongArch: BPF: Add dynamic code modification support
This commit adds support for BPF dynamic code modification on the LoongArch architecture: 1. Add bpf_arch_text_copy() for instruction block copying. 2. Add bpf_arch_text_poke() for runtime instruction patching. 3. Add bpf_arch_text_invalidate() for code invalidation. On LoongArch, since symbol addresses in the direct mapping region can't be reached via relative jump instructions from the paged mapping region, we use the move_imm+jirl instruction pair as absolute jump instructions. These require 2-5 instructions, so we reserve 5 NOP instructions in the program as placeholders for function jumps. The larch_insn_text_copy() function is solely used for BPF. And the use of larch_insn_text_copy() requires PAGE_SIZE alignment. Currently, only the size of the BPF trampoline is page-aligned.

alteration of DAMON's inter-node allocation policy.
- The 3 patch series "Remove unmap_and_put_page()" from Vishal Moola
provides a couple of page->folio conversions.
- The 4 patch series "mm: per-node proactive reclaim" from Davidlohr
Bueso implements a per-node control of proactive reclaim - beyond the
current memcg-based implementation.
- The 14 patch series "mm/damon: remove damon_callback" from SeongJae
Park replaces the damon_callback interface with a more general and
powerful damon_call()+damos_walk() interface.
- The 10 patch series "mm/mremap: permit mremap() move of multiple VMAs"
from Lorenzo Stoakes implements a number of mremap cleanups (of course)
in preparation for adding new mremap() functionality: newly permit the
remapping of multiple VMAs when the user is specifying MREMAP_FIXED. It
still excludes some specialized situations where this cannot be
performed reliably.
- The 3 patch series "drop hugetlb_free_pgd_range()" from Anthony Yznaga

the thus-unneeded hugetlb_free_pgd_range().
- The 4 patch series "mm/damon/sysfs: support periodic and automated
stats update" from SeongJae Park augments the present
userspace-requested update of DAMON sysfs monitoring files. Automatic
update is now provided, along with a tunable to control the update
interval.
- The 4 patch series "Some randome fixes and cleanups to swapfile" from
Kemeng Shi does what is claims.
- The 4 patch series "mm: introduce snapshot_page" from Luiz Capitulino
and David Hildenbrand provides (and uses) a means by which debug-style
functions can grab a copy of a pageframe and inspect it locklessly
without tripping over the races inherent in operating on the live
pageframe directly.
- The 6 patch series "use per-vma locks for /proc/pid/maps reads" from
Suren Baghdasaryan addresses the large contention issues which can be
triggered by reads from that procfs file. Latencies are reduced by more
than half in some situations. The series also introduces several new
selftests for the /proc/pid/maps interface.
- The 6 patch series "__folio_split() clean up" from Zi Yan cleans up
__folio_split()!
- The 7 patch series "Optimize mprotect() for large folios" from Dev
Jain provides some quite large (>3x) speedups to mprotect() when dealing
with large folios.
- The 2 patch series "selftests/mm: reuse FORCE_READ to replace "asm
volatile("" : "+r" (XXX));" and some cleanup" from wang lian does some
cleanup work in the selftests code.
- The 3 patch series "tools/testing: expand mremap testing" from Lorenzo
Stoakes extends the mremap() selftest in several ways, including adding
more checking of Lorenzo's recently added "permit mremap() move of
multiple VMAs" feature.
- The 22 patch series "selftests/damon/sysfs.py: test all parameters"
from SeongJae Park extends the DAMON sysfs interface selftest so that it
tests all possible user-requested parameters. Rather than the present
minimal subset.

"stop passing a writeback_control to swap/shmem writeout" (Christoph Hellwig)
is a cleanup to the writeback code which removes a couple of
pointers from struct writeback_control.
"drivers/base/node.c: optimization and cleanups" (Donet Tom)
contains largely uncorrelated cleanups to the NUMA node setup and
management code.
"mm: userfaultfd: assorted fixes and cleanups" (Tal Zussman)

provides some cleanup and consolidation work in DAMON.
"use vm_flags_t consistently" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
uses vm_flags_t in places where we were inappropriately using other
types.
"mm/memfd: Reserve hugetlb folios before allocation" (Vivek Kasireddy)

implememnts some cleanup and maintainability work in the DAMON
sysfs layer.
"madvise cleanup" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
does quite a lot of cleanup/maintenance work in the madvise() code.
"madvise anon_name cleanups" (Vlastimil Babka)
provides additional cleanups on top or Lorenzo's effort.
"Implement numa node notifier" (Oscar Salvador)
creates a standalone notifier for NUMA node memory state changes.
Previously these were lumped under the more general memory
on/offline notifier.
"Make MIGRATE_ISOLATE a standalone bit" (Zi Yan)
cleans up the pageblock isolation code and fixes a potential issue
which doesn't seem to cause any problems in practice.

adds additional drgn- and python-based DAMON selftests which are
more comprehensive than the existing selftest suite.
"Misc rework on hugetlb faulting path" (Oscar Salvador)
fixes a rather obscure deadlock in the hugetlb fault code and
follows that fix with a series of cleanups.

implements a per-node control of proactive reclaim - beyond the
current memcg-based implementation.
"mm/damon: remove damon_callback" (SeongJae Park)
replaces the damon_callback interface with a more general and
powerful damon_call()+damos_walk() interface.
"mm/mremap: permit mremap() move of multiple VMAs" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
implements a number of mremap cleanups (of course) in preparation
for adding new mremap() functionality: newly permit the remapping
of multiple VMAs when the user is specifying MREMAP_FIXED. It still
excludes some specialized situations where this cannot be performed
reliably.
"drop hugetlb_free_pgd_range()" (Anthony Yznaga)
switches some sparc hugetlb code over to the generic version and
removes the thus-unneeded hugetlb_free_pgd_range().
"mm/damon/sysfs: support periodic and automated stats update" (SeongJae Park)
augments the present userspace-requested update of DAMON sysfs
monitoring files. Automatic update is now provided, along with a
tunable to control the update interval.
"Some randome fixes and cleanups to swapfile" (Kemeng Shi)
does what is claims.
"mm: introduce snapshot_page" (Luiz Capitulino and David Hildenbrand)
provides (and uses) a means by which debug-style functions can grab
a copy of a pageframe and inspect it locklessly without tripping
over the races inherent in operating on the live pageframe
directly.
"use per-vma locks for /proc/pid/maps reads" (Suren Baghdasaryan)

more checking of Lorenzo's recently added "permit mremap() move of
multiple VMAs" feature.
"selftests/damon/sysfs.py: test all parameters" (SeongJae Park)
extends the DAMON sysfs interface selftest so that it tests all
possible user-requested parameters. Rather than the present minimal
subset"

ARM:
- Host driver for GICv5, the next generation interrupt controller for arm64, including support for interrupt routing, MSIs, interrupt translation and wired interrupts. - Use FEAT_GCIE_LEGACY on GICv5 systems to virtualize GICv3 VMs on GICv5 hardware, leveraging the legacy VGIC interface. - Userspace control of the 'nASSGIcap' GICv3 feature, allowing userspace to disable support for SGIs w/o an active state on hardware that previously advertised it unconditionally. - Map supporting endpoints with cacheable memory attributes on systems with FEAT_S2FWB and DIC where KVM no longer needs to perform cache maintenance on the address range. - Nested support for FEAT_RAS and FEAT_DoubleFault2, allowing the guest hypervisor to inject external aborts into an L2 VM and take traps of masked external aborts to the hypervisor. - Convert more system register sanitization to the config-driven implementation. - Fixes to the visibility of EL2 registers, namely making VGICv3 system registers accessible through the VGIC device instead of the ONE_REG vCPU ioctls. - Various cleanups and minor fixes. LoongArch: - Add stat information for in-kernel irqchip - Add tracepoints for CPUCFG and CSR emulation exits - Enhance in-kernel irqchip emulation - Various cleanups. RISC-V: - Enable ring-based dirty memory tracking - Improve perf kvm stat to report interrupt events - Delegate illegal instruction trap to VS-mode - MMU improvements related to upcoming nested virtualization s390x - Fixes x86: - Add CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC for x86 to allow disabling support for I/O APIC, PIC, and PIT emulation at compile time. - Share device posted IRQ code between SVM and VMX and harden it against bugs and runtime errors. - Use vcpu_idx, not vcpu_id, for GA log tag/metadata, to make lookups O(1) instead of O(n). - For MMIO stale data mitigation, track whether or not a vCPU has access to (host) MMIO based on whether the page tables have MMIO pfns mapped; using VFIO is prone to false negatives - Rework the MSR interception code so that the SVM and VMX APIs are more or less identical. - Recalculate all MSR intercepts from scratch on MSR filter changes, instead of maintaining shadow bitmaps. - Advertise support for LKGS (Load Kernel GS base), a new instruction that's loosely related to FRED, but is supported and enumerated independently. - Fix a user-triggerable WARN that syzkaller found by setting the vCPU in INIT_RECEIVED state (aka wait-for-SIPI), and then putting the vCPU into VMX Root Mode (post-VMXON). Trying to detect every possible path leading to architecturally forbidden states is hard and even risks breaking userspace (if it goes from valid to valid state but passes through invalid states), so just wait until KVM_RUN to detect that the vCPU state isn't allowed. - Add KVM_X86_DISABLE_EXITS_APERFMPERF to allow disabling interception of APERF/MPERF reads, so that a "properly" configured VM can access APERF/MPERF. This has many caveats (APERF/MPERF cannot be zeroed on vCPU creation or saved/restored on suspend and resume, or preserved over thread migration let alone VM migration) but can be useful whenever you're interested in letting Linux guests see the effective physical CPU frequency in /proc/cpuinfo. - Reject KVM_SET_TSC_KHZ for vm file descriptors if vCPUs have been created, as there's no known use case for changing the default frequency for other VM types and it goes counter to the very reason why the ioctl was added to the vm file descriptor. And also, there would be no way to make it work for confidential VMs with a "secure" TSC, so kill two birds with one stone. - Dynamically allocation the shadow MMU's hashed page list, and defer allocating the hashed list until it's actually needed (the TDP MMU doesn't use the list). - Extract many of KVM's helpers for accessing architectural local APIC state to common x86 so that they can be shared by guest-side code for Secure AVIC. - Various cleanups and fixes. x86 (Intel): - Preserve the host's DEBUGCTL.FREEZE_IN_SMM when running the guest. Failure to honor FREEZE_IN_SMM can leak host state into guests. - Explicitly check vmcs12.GUEST_DEBUGCTL on nested VM-Enter to prevent L1 from running L2 with features that KVM doesn't support, e.g. BTF. x86 (AMD): - WARN and reject loading kvm-amd.ko instead of panicking the kernel if the nested SVM MSRPM offsets tracker can't handle an MSR (which is pretty much a static condition and therefore should never happen, but still). - Fix a variety of flaws and bugs in the AVIC device posted IRQ code. - Inhibit AVIC if a vCPU's ID is too big (relative to what hardware supports) instead of rejecting vCPU creation. - Extend enable_ipiv module param support to SVM, by simply leaving IsRunning clear in the vCPU's physical ID table entry. - Disable IPI virtualization, via enable_ipiv, if the CPU is affected by erratum #1235, to allow (safely) enabling AVIC on such CPUs. - Request GA Log interrupts if and only if the target vCPU is blocking, i.e. only if KVM needs a notification in order to wake the vCPU. - Intercept SPEC_CTRL on AMD if the MSR shouldn't exist according to the vCPU's CPUID model. - Accept any SNP policy that is accepted by the firmware with respect to SMT and single-socket restrictions. An incompatible policy doesn't put the kernel at risk in any way, so there's no reason for KVM to care. - Drop a superfluous WBINVD (on all CPUs!) when destroying a VM and use WBNOINVD instead of WBINVD when possible for SEV cache maintenance. - When reclaiming memory from an SEV guest, only do cache flushes on CPUs that have ever run a vCPU for the guest, i.e. don't flush the caches for CPUs that can't possibly have cache lines with dirty, encrypted data. Generic: - Rework irqbypass to track/match producers and consumers via an xarray instead of a linked list. Using a linked list leads to O(n^2) insertion times, which is hugely problematic for use cases that create large numbers of VMs. Such use cases typically don't actually use irqbypass, but eliminating the pointless registration is a future problem to solve as it likely requires new uAPI. - Track irqbypass's "token" as "struct eventfd_ctx *" instead of a "void *", to avoid making a simple concept unnecessarily difficult to understand. - Decouple device posted IRQs from VFIO device assignment, as binding a VM to a VFIO group is not a requirement for enabling device posted IRQs. - Clean up and document/comment the irqfd assignment code. - Disallow binding multiple irqfds to an eventfd with a priority waiter, i.e. ensure an eventfd is bound to at most one irqfd through the entire host, and add a selftest to verify eventfd:irqfd bindings are globally unique. - Add a tracepoint for KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES to help debug issues related to private <=> shared memory conversions. - Drop guest_memfd's .getattr() implementation as the VFS layer will call generic_fillattr() if inode_operations.getattr is NULL. - Fix issues with dirty ring harvesting where KVM doesn't bound the processing of entries in any way, which allows userspace to keep KVM in a tight loop indefinitely. - Kill off kvm_arch_{start,end}_assignment() and x86's associated tracking, now that KVM no longer uses assigned_device_count as a heuristic for either irqbypass usage or MDS mitigation. Selftests: - Fix a comment typo. - Verify KVM is loaded when getting any KVM module param so that attempting to run a selftest without kvm.ko loaded results in a SKIP message about KVM not being loaded/enabled (versus some random parameter not existing). - Skip tests that hit EACCES when attempting to access a file, and rpint a "Root required?" help message. In most cases, the test just needs to be run with elevated permissions. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQFIBAABCAAyFiEE8TM4V0tmI4mGbHaCv/vSX3jHroMFAmiKXMgUHHBib256aW5p QHJlZGhhdC5jb20ACgkQv/vSX3jHroMhMQf/QDhC/CP1aGXph2whuyeD2NMqPKiU 9KdnDNST+ftPwjg9QxZ9mTaa8zeVz/wly6XlxD9OQHy+opM1wcys3k0GZAFFEEQm YrThgURdzEZ3nwJZgb+m0t4wjJQtpiFIBwAf7qq6z1VrqQBEmHXJ/8QxGuqO+BNC j5q/X+q6KZwehKI6lgFBrrOKWFaxqhnRAYfW6rGBxRXxzTJuna37fvDpodQnNceN zOiq+avfriUMArTXTqOteJNKU0229HjiPSnjILLnFQ+B3akBlwNG0jk7TMaAKR6q IZWG1EIS9q1BAkGXaw6DE1y6d/YwtXCR5qgAIkiGwaPt5yj9Oj6kRN2Ytw== =j2At -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini: "ARM: - Host driver for GICv5, the next generation interrupt controller for arm64, including support for interrupt routing, MSIs, interrupt translation and wired interrupts - Use FEAT_GCIE_LEGACY on GICv5 systems to virtualize GICv3 VMs on GICv5 hardware, leveraging the legacy VGIC interface - Userspace control of the 'nASSGIcap' GICv3 feature, allowing userspace to disable support for SGIs w/o an active state on hardware that previously advertised it unconditionally - Map supporting endpoints with cacheable memory attributes on systems with FEAT_S2FWB and DIC where KVM no longer needs to perform cache maintenance on the address range - Nested support for FEAT_RAS and FEAT_DoubleFault2, allowing the guest hypervisor to inject external aborts into an L2 VM and take traps of masked external aborts to the hypervisor - Convert more system register sanitization to the config-driven implementation - Fixes to the visibility of EL2 registers, namely making VGICv3 system registers accessible through the VGIC device instead of the ONE_REG vCPU ioctls - Various cleanups and minor fixes LoongArch: - Add stat information for in-kernel irqchip - Add tracepoints for CPUCFG and CSR emulation exits - Enhance in-kernel irqchip emulation - Various cleanups RISC-V: - Enable ring-based dirty memory tracking - Improve perf kvm stat to report interrupt events - Delegate illegal instruction trap to VS-mode - MMU improvements related to upcoming nested virtualization s390x - Fixes x86: - Add CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC for x86 to allow disabling support for I/O APIC, PIC, and PIT emulation at compile time - Share device posted IRQ code between SVM and VMX and harden it against bugs and runtime errors - Use vcpu_idx, not vcpu_id, for GA log tag/metadata, to make lookups O(1) instead of O(n) - For MMIO stale data mitigation, track whether or not a vCPU has access to (host) MMIO based on whether the page tables have MMIO pfns mapped; using VFIO is prone to false negatives - Rework the MSR interception code so that the SVM and VMX APIs are more or less identical - Recalculate all MSR intercepts from scratch on MSR filter changes, instead of maintaining shadow bitmaps - Advertise support for LKGS (Load Kernel GS base), a new instruction that's loosely related to FRED, but is supported and enumerated independently - Fix a user-triggerable WARN that syzkaller found by setting the vCPU in INIT_RECEIVED state (aka wait-for-SIPI), and then putting the vCPU into VMX Root Mode (post-VMXON).

mm/hugetlb: remove prepare_hugepage_range()
Only mips and loongarch implemented this API, however what it does was checking against stack overflow for either len or addr. That's already done in arch's arch_get_unmapped_area*() functions, even though it may not be 100% identical checks. For example, for both of the architectures, there will be a trivial difference on how stack top was defined. The old code uses STACK_TOP which may be slightly smaller than TASK_SIZE on either of them, but the hope is that shouldn't be a problem. It means the whole API is pretty much obsolete at least now, remove it completely.

mm: remove devmap related functions and page table bits
Now that DAX and all other reference counts to ZONE_DEVICE pages are managed normally there is no need for the special devmap PTE/PMD/PUD page table bits. So drop all references to these, freeing up a software defined page table bit on architectures supporting it.

LoongArch: Handle KCOV __init vs inline mismatches
When the KCOV is enabled all functions get instrumented, unless the __no_sanitize_coverage attribute is used. To prepare for __no_sanitize_coverage being applied to __init functions, we have to handle differences in how GCC's inline optimizations get resolved. For LoongArch this exposed several places where __init annotations were missing but ended up being "accidentally correct". So fix these cases.

LoongArch: Replace __ASSEMBLY__ with __ASSEMBLER__ in headers
While the GCC and Clang compilers already define __ASSEMBLER__ automatically when compiling assembler code, __ASSEMBLY__ is a macro that only gets defined by the Makefiles in the kernel. This is bad since macros starting with two underscores are names that are reserved by the C language. It can also be very confusing for the developers when switching between userspace and kernelspace coding, or when dealing with uapi headers that rather should use __ASSEMBLER__ instead. So let's now standardize on the __ASSEMBLER__ macro that is provided by the compilers. This is almost a completely mechanical patch (done with a simple "sed -i" statement), with one comment tweaked manually in the arch/loongarch/include/asm/cpu.h file (it was missing the trailing underscores).

loongarch, um, xtensa: get rid of generated arch/$ARCH/include/asm/param.h
For loongarch and xtensa that gets them to do what x86 et.al. are doing - have asm/param.h resolve to uapi variant, which is generated by mandatory-y += param.h and contains exact same include. On um it will resolve to x86 uapi variant instead, which also contains the same include (um doesn't have uapi headers, but it does build the host ones).

mm: pgtable: fix pte_swp_exclusive
Make pte_swp_exclusive return bool instead of int. This will better reflect how pte_swp_exclusive is actually used in the code. This fixes swap/swapoff problems on Alpha due pte_swp_exclusive not returning correct values when _PAGE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE bit resides in upper 32-bits of PTE (like on alpha).

LoongArch: vDSO: Correctly use asm parameters in syscall wrappers
The syscall wrappers use the "a0" register for two different register variables, both the first argument and the return value. Here the "ret" variable is used as both input and output while the argument register is only used as input. Clang treats the conflicting input parameters as an undefined behaviour and optimizes away the argument assignment. The code seems to work by chance for the most part today but that may change in the future. Specifically clock_gettime_fallback() fails with clockids from 16 to 23, as implemented by the upcoming auxiliary clocks. Switch the "ret" register variable to a pure output, similar to the other architectures' vDSO code. This works in both clang and GCC.

LoongArch: Avoid using $r0/$r1 as "mask" for csrxchg
When building kernel with LLVM there are occasionally such errors:
In file included from ./include/linux/spinlock.h:59:
In file included from ./include/linux/irqflags.h:17:
arch/loongarch/include/asm/irqflags.h:38:3: error: must not be $r0 or $r1
38 | "csrxchg %[val], %[mask], %[reg]\n\t"
| ^
<inline asm>:1:16: note: instantiated into assembly here
1 | csrxchg $a1, $ra, 0
| ^
To prevent the compiler from allocating $r0 or $r1 for the "mask" of the
csrxchg instruction, the 'q' constraint must be used but Clang < 21 does
not support it. So force to use $t0 in the inline asm, in order to avoid
using $r0/$r1 while keeping the backward compatibility.

LoongArch: Increase max supported CPUs up to 2048
Increase max supported CPUs up to 2048, including:
1. Increase CSR.CPUID register's effective width;
2. Define MAX_CORE_PIC (a.k.a. max physical ID) to 2048;
3. Allow NR_CPUS (a.k.a. max logical ID) to be as large as 2048;
4. Introduce acpi_numa_x2apic_affinity_init() to handle ACPI SRAT
for CPUID >= 256.
Note: The reason of increasing to 2048 rather than 4096/8192 is because
the IPI hardware can only support 2048 as a maximum.
