      arm64: kvm: report original PAR_EL1 upon panic · fbb4574c
      Mark Rutland authored
      If we call __kvm_hyp_panic while a guest context is active, we call
      __restore_sysregs before acquiring the system register values for the
      panic, in the process throwing away the PAR_EL1 value at the point of
      the panic.
      
      This patch modifies __kvm_hyp_panic to stash the PAR_EL1 value prior to
      restoring host register values, enabling us to report the original
      values at the point of the panic.

      arm64: kvm: avoid %p in __kvm_hyp_panic · 1d7a4e31
      Mark Rutland authored
      Currently __kvm_hyp_panic uses %p for values which are not pointers,
      such as the ESR value. This can confusingly lead to "(null)" being
      printed for the value.
      
      Use %x instead, and only use %p for host pointers.

      KVM: arm/arm64: vgic: Trust the LR state for HW IRQs · 9f958c11
      Christoffer Dall authored
      We were probing the physial distributor state for the active state of a
      HW virtual IRQ, because we had seen evidence that the LR state was not
      cleared when the guest deactivated a virtual interrupted.
      
      However, this issue turned out to be a software bug in the GIC, which
      was solved by: 84aab5e68c2a5e1e18d81ae8308c3ce25d501b29
      (KVM: arm/arm64: arch_timer: Preserve physical dist. active
      state on LR.active, 2015-11-24)
      
      Therefore, get rid of the complexities and just look at the LR.

      KVM: arm/arm64: arch_timer: Preserve physical dist. active state on LR.active · 0e3dfda9
      Christoffer Dall authored
      We were incorrectly removing the active state from the physical
      distributor on the timer interrupt when the timer output level was
      deasserted.  We shouldn't be doing this without considering the virtual
      interrupt's active state, because the architecture requires that when an
      LR has the HW bit set and the pending or active bits set, then the
      physical interrupt must also have the corresponding bits set.
      
      This addresses an issue where we have been observing an inconsistency
      between the LR state and the physical distributor state where the LR
      state was active and the physical distributor was not active, which
      shouldn't happen.

      KVM: arm/arm64: Fix preemptible timer active state crazyness · 7e16aa81
      Christoffer Dall authored
      We were setting the physical active state on the GIC distributor in a
      preemptible section, which could cause us to set the active state on
      different physical CPU from the one we were actually going to run on,
      hacoc ensues.
      
      Since we are no longer descheduling/scheduling soft timers in the
      flush/sync timer functions, simply moving the timer flush into a
      non-preemptible section.

      arm64: KVM: Add workaround for Cortex-A57 erratum 834220 · 498cd5c3
      Marc Zyngier authored
      Cortex-A57 parts up to r1p2 can misreport Stage 2 translation faults
      when a Stage 1 permission fault or device alignment fault should
      have been reported.
      
      This patch implements the workaround (which is to validate that the
      Stage-1 translation actually succeeds) by using code patching.

      arm64: KVM: Fix AArch32 to AArch64 register mapping · c0f09634
      Marc Zyngier authored
      When running a 32bit guest under a 64bit hypervisor, the ARMv8
      architecture defines a mapping of the 32bit registers in the 64bit
      space. This includes banked registers that are being demultiplexed
      over the 64bit ones.
      
      On exceptions caused by an operation involving a 32bit register, the
      HW exposes the register number in the ESR_EL2 register. It was so
      far understood that SW had to distinguish between AArch32 and AArch64
      accesses (based on the current AArch32 mode and register number).
      
      It turns out that I misinterpreted the ARM ARM, and the clue is in
      D1.20.1: "For some exceptions, the exception syndrome given in the
      ESR_ELx identifies one or more register numbers from the issued
      instruction that generated the exception. Where the exception is
      taken from an Exception level using AArch32 these register numbers
      give the AArch64 view of the register."
      
      Which means that the HW is already giving us the translated version,
      and that we shouldn't try to interpret it at all (for example, doing
      an MMIO operation from the IRQ mode using the LR register leads to
      very unexpected behaviours).
      
      The fix is thus not to perform a call to vcpu_reg32() at all from
      vcpu_reg(), and use whatever register number is supplied directly.
      The only case we need to find out about the mapping is when we
      actively generate a register access, which only occurs when injecting
      a fault in a guest.

      ARM/arm64: KVM: test properly for a PTE's uncachedness · e6fab544
      Ard Biesheuvel authored
      The open coded tests for checking whether a PTE maps a page as
      uncached use a flawed '(pte_val(xxx) & CONST) != CONST' pattern,
      which is not guaranteed to work since the type of a mapping is
      not a set of mutually exclusive bits
      
      For HYP mappings, the type is an index into the MAIR table (i.e, the
      index itself does not contain any information whatsoever about the
      type of the mapping), and for stage-2 mappings it is a bit field where
      normal memory and device types are defined as follows:
      
          #define MT_S2_NORMAL            0xf
          #define MT_S2_DEVICE_nGnRE      0x1
      
      I.e., masking *and* comparing with the latter matches on the former,
      and we have been getting lucky merely because the S2 device mappings
      also have the PTE_UXN bit set, or we would misidentify memory mappings
      as device mappings.
      
      Since the unmap_range() code path (which contains one instance of the
      flawed test) is used both for HYP mappings and stage-2 mappings, and
      considering the difference between the two, it is non-trivial to fix
      this by rewriting the tests in place, as it would involve passing
      down the type of mapping through all the functions.
      
      However, since HYP mappings and stage-2 mappings both deal with host
      physical addresses, we can simply check whether the mapping is backed
      by memory that is managed by the host kernel, and only perform the
      D-cache maintenance if this is the case.

       "This missed the merge window because I was waiting for some repairs to
        come in.  Nothing actually uses the bulk allocator yet and the changes
        to other code paths are pretty small.  And the net guys are waiting

      More comments from Jesper Dangaard Brouer:
       "The kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() call, in mm/slub.c, were included in
        previous kernel.  The present version contains a bug.  Vladimir
        Davydov noticed it contained a bug, when kernel is compiled with
        CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM (see commit 03ec0ed5: "slub: fix kmem cgroup
        bug in kmem_cache_alloc_bulk").  Plus the mem cgroup counterpart in
        kmem_cache_free_bulk() were missing (see commit 03374518 "slub:
        add missing kmem cgroup support to kmem_cache_free_bulk").
      
        I don't consider the fix stable-material because there are no in-tree
        users of the API.
      
        But with known bugs (for memcg) I cannot start using the API in the
        net-tree"
