When computing a linear address and segmentation is used, we need to know
the base address of the segment involved in the computation. In most of
the cases, the segment base address will be zero as in USER_DS/USER32_DS.
However, it may be possible that a user space program defines its own
segments via a local descriptor table. In such a case, the segment base
address may not be zero. Thus, the segment base address is needed to
calculate correctly the linear address.
If running in protected mode, the segment selector to be used when
computing a linear address is determined by either any of segment override
prefixes in the instruction or inferred from the registers involved in the
computation of the effective address; in that order. Also, there are cases
when the segment override prefixes shall be ignored (i.e., code segments
are always selected by the CS segment register; string instructions always
use the ES segment register when using rDI register as operand). In long
mode, segment registers are ignored, except for FS and GS. In these two
cases, base addresses are obtained from the respective MSRs.
For clarity, this process can be split into four steps (and an equal
number of functions): determine if segment prefixes overrides can be used;
parse the segment override prefixes, and use them if found; if not found
or cannot be used, use the default segment registers associated with the
operand registers. Once the segment register to use has been identified,
read its value to obtain the segment selector.
The method to obtain the segment selector depends on several factors. In
32-bit builds, segment selectors are saved into a pt_regs structure
when switching to kernel mode. The same is also true for virtual-8086
mode. In 64-bit builds, segmentation is mostly ignored, except when
running a program in 32-bit legacy mode. In this case, CS and SS can be
obtained from pt_regs. DS, ES, FS and GS can be read directly from
the respective segment registers.
In order to identify the segment registers, a new set of #defines is
introduced. It also includes two special identifiers. One of them
indicates when the default segment register associated with instruction
operands shall be used. Another one indicates that the contents of the
segment register shall be ignored; this identifier is used when in long
mode.

Physical addresses on processors supporting 5 level paging can be up to
52 bits wide. For a Xen pv guest running on such a machine those
physical addresses have to be supported in order to be able to use any
memory on the machine even if the guest itself does not support 5 level
paging.
So when reading/writing a MFN from/to a pte don't use the kernel's
PTE_PFN_MASK but a new XEN_PTE_MFN_MASK allowing full 40 bit wide MFNs.

Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the
coccinelle script shown below and apply its output.
For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in
preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the
former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of
ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in
churn.
However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to
correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write
accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining

We do not have tracepoints for sys_modify_ldt() because we define
it directly instead of using the normal SYSCALL_DEFINEx() macros.
However, there is a reason sys_modify_ldt() does not use the macros:
it has an 'int' return type instead of 'unsigned long'. This is
a bug, but it's a bug cemented in the ABI.
What does this mean? If we return -EINVAL from a function that
returns 'int', we have 0x00000000ffffffea in %rax. But, if we
return -EINVAL from a function returning 'unsigned long', we end
up with 0xffffffffffffffea in %rax, which is wrong.
To work around this and maintain the 'int' behavior while using
the SYSCALL_DEFINEx() macros, so we add a cast to 'unsigned int'
in both implementations of sys_modify_ldt().

Some CPUID features depend on other features. Currently it's
possible to to clear dependent features, but not clear the base features,
which can cause various interesting problems.
This patch implements a generic table to describe dependencies
between CPUID features, to be used by all code that clears
CPUID.
Some subsystems (like XSAVE) had an own implementation of this,
but it's better to do it all in a single place for everyone.
Then clear_cpu_cap and setup_clear_cpu_cap always look up
this table and clear all dependencies too.
This is intended to be a practical table: only for features
that make sense to clear. If someone for example clears FPU,
or other features that are essentially part of the required
base feature set, not much is going to work. Handling
that is right now out of scope. We're only handling
features which can be usefully cleared.

free_moved_vector() accesses the per cpu vector array with this_cpu_write()
to clear the vector. The function has two call sites:
1) The vector cleanup IPI
2) The force_complete_move() code path
For #1 this_cpu_write() is correct as it runs on the CPU on which the
vector needs to be freed.
For #2 this_cpu_write() is wrong because the function is called from an
outgoing CPU which is not necessarily the CPU on which the previous vector
needs to be freed. As a result it sets the vector on the outgoing CPU to
NULL, which is pointless as that CPU does not handle interrupts
anymore. What's worse is that it leaves the vector on the previous target
CPU in place which later on triggers the BUG_ON(vector) in the vector
allocation code when the vector gets reused. That's possible because the
bitmap allocator entry of that CPU is freed correctly.
Always use the CPU to which the vector was associated and clear the vector
entry on that CPU. Fixup the tracepoint as well so it tracks on which CPU
the vector gets removed.

Since commit:
94b1b03b51 ("x86/mm: Rework lazy TLB mode and TLB freshness tracking")
x86's lazy TLB mode has been all the way lazy: when running a kernel thread
(including the idle thread), the kernel keeps using the last user mm's
page tables without attempting to maintain user TLB coherence at all.
From a pure semantic perspective, this is fine -- kernel threads won't
attempt to access user pages, so having stale TLB entries doesn't matter.
Unfortunately, I forgot about a subtlety. By skipping TLB flushes,
we also allow any paging-structure caches that may exist on the CPU
to become incoherent. This means that we can have a
paging-structure cache entry that references a freed page table, and
the CPU is within its rights to do a speculative page walk starting
at the freed page table.
I can imagine this causing two different problems:
- A speculative page walk starting from a bogus page table could read
IO addresses. I haven't seen any reports of this causing problems.
- A speculative page walk that involves a bogus page table can install
garbage in the TLB. Such garbage would always be at a user VA, but
some AMD CPUs have logic that triggers a machine check when it notices
these bogus entries. I've seen a couple reports of this.
Boris further explains the failure mode:

To fix this, reinstate TLB coherence in lazy mode. With this patch
applied, we do it in one of two ways:
- If we have PCID, we simply switch back to init_mm's page tables
when we enter a kernel thread -- this seems to be quite cheap
except for the cost of serializing the CPU.
- If we don't have PCID, then we set a flag and switch to init_mm
the first time we would otherwise need to flush the TLB.
The /sys/kernel/debug/x86/tlb_use_lazy_mode debug switch can be changed
to override the default mode for benchmarking.
In theory, we could optimize this better by only flushing the TLB in
lazy CPUs when a page table is freed. Doing that would require
auditing the mm code to make sure that all page table freeing goes
through tlb_remove_page() as well as reworking some data structures
to implement the improved flush logic.

Entering SMM while running in guest mode wasn't working very well because several
pieces of the vcpu state were left set up for nested operation.
Some of the issues observed:
* L1 was getting unexpected VM exits (using L1 interception controls but running
in SMM execution environment)
* MMU was confused (walk_mmu was still set to nested_mmu)
* INTERCEPT_SMI was not emulated for L1 (KVM never injected SVM_EXIT_SMI)
Intel SDM actually prescribes the logical processor to "leave VMX operation" upon
entering SMM in 34.14.1 Default Treatment of SMI Delivery. AMD doesn't seem to
document this but they provide fields in the SMM state-save area to stash the
current state of SVM. What we need to do is basically get out of guest mode for
the duration of SMM. All this completely transparent to L1, i.e. L1 is not given
control and no L1 observable state changes.
To avoid code duplication this commit takes advantage of the existing nested
vmexit and run functionality, perhaps at the cost of efficiency. To get out of
guest mode, nested_svm_vmexit is called, unchanged. Re-entering is performed using
enter_svm_guest_mode.

The alt_max_short() macro in asm/alternative.h does not work as
intended, leading to nasty bugs. E.g. alt_max_short("1", "3")
evaluates to 3, but alt_max_short("3", "1") evaluates to 1 -- not
exactly the maximum of 1 and 3.
In fact, I had to learn it the hard way by crashing my kernel in not
so funny ways by attempting to make use of the ALTENATIVE_2 macro
with alternatives where the first one was larger than the second
one.
According to [1] and commit dbe4058a6a ("x86/alternatives: Fix
ALTERNATIVE_2 padding generation properly") the right handed side
should read "-(-(a < b))" not "-(-(a - b))". Fix that, to make the
macro work as intended.
While at it, fix up the comments regarding the additional "-", too.
It's not about gas' usage of s32 but brain dead logic of having a
"true" value of -1 for the < operator ... *sigh*
Btw., the one in asm/alternative-asm.h is correct. And, apparently,
all current users of ALTERNATIVE_2() pass same sized alternatives,
avoiding to hit the bug.

Currently, in PREEMPT_COUNT=n kernel, kvm_async_pf_task_wait() could call
schedule() to reschedule in some cases. This could result in
accidentally ending the current RCU read-side critical section early,
causing random memory corruption in the guest, or otherwise preempting
the currently running task inside between preempt_disable and
preempt_enable.
The difficulty to handle this well is because we don't know whether an
async PF delivered in a preemptible section or RCU read-side critical section
for PREEMPT_COUNT=n, since preempt_disable()/enable() and rcu_read_lock/unlock()
are both no-ops in that case.
To cure this, we treat any async PF interrupting a kernel context as one
that cannot be preempted, preventing kvm_async_pf_task_wait() from choosing
the schedule() path in that case.
To do so, a second parameter for kvm_async_pf_task_wait() is introduced,
so that we know whether it's called from a context interrupting the
kernel, and the parameter is set properly in all the callsites.
