      KVM: arm64: vgic-v3: Don't advertise ICC_CTLR_EL1.SEIS · f87ab682
      Marc Zyngier authored
      Since we are trapping all sysreg accesses when ICH_VTR_EL2.SEIS
      is set, and that we never deliver an SError when emulating
      any of the GICv3 sysregs, don't advertise ICC_CTLR_EL1.SEIS.

      KVM: arm64: vgic-v3: Reduce common group trapping to ICV_DIR_EL1 when possible · 0924729b
      Marc Zyngier authored
      On systems that advertise ICH_VTR_EL2.SEIS, we trap all GICv3 sysreg
      accesses from the guest. From a performance perspective, this is OK
      as long as the guest doesn't hammer the GICv3 CPU interface.
      
      In most cases, this is fine, unless the guest actively uses
      priorities and switches PMR_EL1 very often. Which is exactly what
      happens when a Linux guest runs with irqchip.gicv3_pseudo_nmi=1.
      In these condition, the performance plumets as we hit PMR each time
      we mask/unmask interrupts. Not good.
      
      There is however an opportunity for improvement. Careful reading
      of the architecture specification indicates that the only GICv3
      sysreg belonging to the common group (which contains the SGI
      registers, PMR, DIR, CTLR and RPR) that is allowed to generate
      a SError is DIR. Everything else is safe.
      
      It is thus possible to substitute the trapping of all the common
      group with just that of DIR if it supported by the implementation.
      Yes, that's yet another optional bit of the architecture.
      So let's just do that, as it leads to some impressive result on
      the M1:
      
      Without this change:
      	bash-5.1# /host/home/maz/hackbench 100 process 1000
      	Running with 100*40 (== 4000) tasks.
      	Time: 56.596
      
      With this change:
      	bash-5.1# /host/home/maz/hackbench 100 process 1000
      	Running with 100*40 (== 4000) tasks.
      	Time: 8.649
      
      which is a pretty convincing result.

      KVM: arm64: vgic-v3: Work around GICv3 locally generated SErrors · df652bcf
      Marc Zyngier authored
      The infamous M1 has a feature nobody else ever implemented,
      in the form of the "GIC locally generated SError interrupts",
      also known as SEIS for short.
      
      These SErrors are generated when a guest does something that violates
      the GIC state machine. It would have been simpler to just *ignore*
      the damned thing, but that's not what this HW does. Oh well.
      
      This part of of the architecture is also amazingly under-specified.
      There is a whole 10 lines that describe the feature in a spec that
      is 930 pages long, and some of these lines are factually wrong.
      Oh, and it is deprecated, so the insentive to clarify it is low.
      
      Now, the spec says that this should be a *virtual* SError when
      HCR_EL2.AMO is set. As it turns out, that's not always the case
      on this CPU, and the SError sometimes fires on the host as a
      physical SError. Goodbye, cruel world. This clearly is a HW bug,
      and it means that a guest can easily take the host down, on demand.
      
      Thankfully, we have seen systems that were just as broken in the
      past, and we have the perfect vaccine for it.
      
      Apple M1, please meet the Cavium ThunderX workaround. All your
      GIC accesses will be trapped, sanitised, and emulated. Only the
      signalling aspect of the HW will be used. It won't be super speedy,
      but it will at least be safe. You're most welcome.
      
      Given that this has only ever been seen on this single implementation,
      that the spec is unclear at best and that we cannot trust it to ever
      be implemented correctly, gate the workaround solely on ICH_VTR_EL2.SEIS
      being set.

      KVM: arm64: Force ID_AA64PFR0_EL1.GIC=1 when exposing a virtual GICv3 · 562e530f
      Marc Zyngier authored
      Until now, we always let ID_AA64PFR0_EL1.GIC reflect the value
      visible on the host, even if we were running a GICv2-enabled VM
      on a GICv3+compat host.
      
      That's fine, but we also now have the case of a host that does not
      expose ID_AA64PFR0_EL1.GIC==1 despite having a vGIC. Yes, this is
      confusing. Thank you M1.
      
      Let's go back to first principles and expose ID_AA64PFR0_EL1.GIC=1
      when a GICv3 is exposed to the guest. This also hides a GICv4.1
      CPU interface from the guest which has no business knowing about
      the v4.1 extension.

      elf: don't use MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE for elf interpreter mappings · 9b2f72cc
      Chen Jingwen authored
      In commit b212921b ("elf: don't use MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE for elf
      executable mappings") we still leave MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE in place for
      load_elf_interp.
      
      Unfortunately, this will cause kernel to fail to start with:
      
          1 (init): Uhuuh, elf segment at 00003ffff7ffd000 requested but the memory is mapped already
          Failed to execute /init (error -17)
      
      The reason is that the elf interpreter (ld.so) has overlapping segments.
      
        readelf -l ld-2.31.so
        Program Headers:
          Type           Offset             VirtAddr           PhysAddr

      The reason for this problem is the same as described in commit
      ad55eac7 ("elf: enforce MAP_FIXED on overlaying elf segments").
      
      Not only executable binaries, elf interpreters (e.g. ld.so) can have
      overlapping elf segments, so we better drop MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE and go
      back to MAP_FIXED in load_elf_interp.

      objtool: print out the symbol type when complaining about it · 7fab1c12
      Linus Torvalds authored
      The objtool warning that the kvm instruction emulation code triggered
      wasn't very useful:
      
          arch/x86/kvm/emulate.o: warning: objtool: __ex_table+0x4: don't know how to handle reloc symbol type: kvm_fastop_exception
      
      in that it helpfully tells you which symbol name it had trouble figuring
      out the relocation for, but it doesn't actually say what the unknown
      symbol type was that triggered it all.
      
      In this case it was because of missing type information (type 0, aka
      STT_NOTYPE), but on the whole it really should just have printed that
      out as part of the message.
      
      Because if this warning triggers, that's very much the first thing you
      want to know - why did reloc2sec_off() return failure for that symbol?
      
      So rather than just saying you can't handle some type of symbol without
      saying what the type _was_, just print out the type number too.

      kvm: fix objtool relocation warning · 291073a5
      Linus Torvalds authored
      The recent change to make objtool aware of more symbol relocation types
      (commit 24ff6525: "objtool: Teach get_alt_entry() about more
      relocation types") also added another check, and resulted in this
      objtool warning when building kvm on x86:
      
          arch/x86/kvm/emulate.o: warning: objtool: __ex_table+0x4: don't know how to handle reloc symbol type: kvm_fastop_exception
      
      The reason seems to be that kvm_fastop_exception() is marked as a global
      symbol, which causes the relocation to ke kept around for objtool.  And
      at the same time, the kvm_fastop_exception definition (which is done as
      an inline asm statement) doesn't actually set the type of the global,
      which then makes objtool unhappy.
      
      The minimal fix is to just not mark kvm_fastop_exception as being a
      global symbol.  It's only used in that one compilation unit anyway, so
      it was always pointless.  That's how all the other local exception table
      labels are done.
      
      I'm not entirely happy about the kinds of games that the kvm code plays
      with doing its own exception handling, and the fact that it confused
      objtool is most definitely a symptom of the code being a bit too subtle
      and ad-hoc.  But at least this trivial one-liner makes objtool no longer
      upset about what is going on.
