KVM now expects to be able to use HW-accelerated delivery of vSGIs as soon as the guest has enabled thm. Unfortunately, we only initialize the GICv4 context if we have a virtual ITS exposed to the guest. Fix it by always initializing the GICv4.1 context if it is available on the host.

We currently save/restore sp_el0 in C code. This is a bit unsafe, as a lot of the C code expects 'current' to be accessible from there (and the opportunity to run kernel code in HYP is specially great with VHE). Instead, let's move the save/restore of sp_el0 to the assembly code (in __guest_enter), making sure that sp_el0 is correct very early on when we exit the guest, and is preserved as long as possible to its host value when we enter the guest.

It's likely that the vcpu fails to handle all virtual interrupts if userspace decides to destroy it, leaving the pending ones stay in the ap_list. If the un-handled one is a LPI, its vgic_irq structure will be eventually leaked because of an extra refcount increment in vgic_queue_irq_unlock(). This was detected by kmemleak on almost every guest destroy, the backtrace is as follows: unreferenced object 0xffff80725aed5500 (size 128): comm "CPU 5/KVM", pid 40711, jiffies 4298024754 (age 166366.512s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 08 01 a9 73 6d 80 ff ff ...........sm... c8 61 ee a9 00 20 ff ff 28 1e 55 81 6c 80 ff ff .a... ..(.U.l... backtrace: [<000000004bcaa122>] kmem_cache_alloc_trace+0x2dc/0x418 [<0000000069c7dabb>] vgic_add_lpi+0x88/0x418 [<00000000bfefd5c5>] vgic_its_cmd_handle_mapi+0x4dc/0x588 [<00000000cf993975>] vgic_its_process_commands.part.5+0x484/0x1198 [<000000004bd3f8e3>] vgic_its_process_commands+0x50/0x80 [<00000000b9a65b2b>] vgic_mmio_write_its_cwriter+0xac/0x108 [<0000000009641ebb>] dispatch_mmio_write+0xd0/0x188 [<000000008f79d288>] __kvm_io_bus_write+0x134/0x240 [<00000000882f39ac>] kvm_io_bus_write+0xe0/0x150 [<0000000078197602>] io_mem_abort+0x484/0x7b8 [<0000000060954e3c>] kvm_handle_guest_abort+0x4cc/0xa58 [<00000000e0d0cd65>] handle_exit+0x24c/0x770 [<00000000b44a7fad>] kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run+0x460/0x1988 [<0000000025fb897c>] kvm_vcpu_ioctl+0x4f8/0xee0 [<000000003271e317>] do_vfs_ioctl+0x160/0xcd8 [<00000000e7f39607>] ksys_ioctl+0x98/0xd8 Fix it by retiring all pending LPIs in the ap_list on the destroy path. p.s.

There is no point in accessing the HW when writing to any of the ISPENDR/ICPENDR registers from userspace, as only the guest should be allowed to change the HW state. Introduce new userspace-specific accessors that deal solely with the virtual state. Note that the API differs from that of GICv3, where userspace exclusively uses ISPENDR to set the state. Too bad we can't reuse it.

When a guest tries to read the active state of its interrupts, we currently just return whatever state we have in memory. This means that if such an interrupt lives in a List Register on another CPU, we fail to obsertve the latest active state for this interrupt. In order to remedy this, stop all the other vcpus so that they exit and we can observe the most recent value for the state. This is similar to what we are doing for the write side of the same registers, and results in new MMIO handlers for userspace (which do not need to stop the guest, as it is supposed to be stopped already).

Implementing (and even advertising) 64bit PSCI functions to 32bit guests is at least a bit odd, if not altogether violating the spec which says ("5.2.1 Register usage in arguments and return values"): "Adherence to the SMC Calling Conventions implies that any AArch32 caller of an SMC64 function will get a return code of 0xFFFFFFFF(int32). This matches the NOT_SUPPORTED error code used in PSCI" Tighten the implementation by pretending these functions are not there for 32bit guests.

When deciding whether a guest has to be stopped we check whether this is a private interrupt or not. Unfortunately, there's an off-by-one bug here, and we fail to recognize a whole range of interrupts as being global (GICv2 SPIs 32-63). Fix the condition from > to be >=.

This sorts the actual field names too, potentially causing even more chaos and confusion at merge time if you have edited the MAINTAINERS file.

They are all supposed to be sorted, but people who add new entries don't always know the alphabet. Plus sometimes the entry names get edited, and people don't then re-order the entry. Let's see how painful this will be for merging purposes (the MAINTAINERS file is often edited in various different trees), but Joe claims there's relatively few patches in -next that touch this, and doing it just before -rc1 is likely the best time. Fingers crossed. This was scripted with /scripts/parse-maintainers.pl --input=MAINTAINERS --output=MAINTAINERS but then I also ended up manually upper-casing a few entry names that stood out when looking at the end result.

Without at least minimal handling for split lock detection induced #AC, VMX will just run into the same problem as the VMWare hypervisor, which was reported by Kenneth. It will inject the #AC blindly into the guest whether the guest is prepared or not. Provide a function for guest mode which acts depending on the host SLD mode.

If seq_file .next function does not change position index, read after some lseek can generate unexpected output. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=206283Signed-off-by: Vasily Averin <vvs@virtuozzo.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Acked-by: Waiman Long <longman@redhat.com> Cc: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@stgolabs.net> Cc: Manfred Spraul <manfred@colorfullife.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.com> Cc: Peter Oberparleiter <oberpar@linux.ibm.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/b7a20945-e315-8bb0-21e6-3875c14a8494@virtuozzo.comSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Patch series "seq_file .next functions should increase position index". In Aug 2018 NeilBrown noticed commit 1f4aace6 ("fs/seq_file.c: simplify seq_file iteration code and interface") "Some ->next functions do not increment *pos when they return NULL... Note that such ->next functions are buggy and should be fixed. A simple demonstration is dd if=/proc/swaps bs=1000 skip=1 Choose any block size larger than the size of /proc/swaps. This will always show the whole last line of /proc/swaps" Described problem is still actual. If you make lseek into middle of last output line following read will output end of last line and whole last line once again. $ dd if=/proc/swaps bs=1 # usual output Filename Type Size Used Priority /dev/dm-0 partition 4194812 97536 -2 104+0 records in 104+0 records out 104 bytes copied $ dd if=/proc/swaps bs=40 skip=1 # last line was generated twice dd: /proc/swaps: cannot skip to specified offset v/dm-0 partition 4194812 97536 -2 /dev/dm-0 partition 4194812 97536 -2 3+1 records in 3+1 records out 131 bytes copied There are lot of other affected files, I've found 30+ including /proc/net/ip_tables_matches and /proc/sysvipc/* I've sent patches into maillists of affected subsystems already, this patch-set fixes the problem in files related to pstore, tracing, gcov, sysvipc and other subsystems processed via linux-kernel@ mailing list directly https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=206283 This patch (of 4): Add debug code to seq_read() to detect missed or out-of-tree incorrect .next seq_file functions.
