Commit in Fixes added the FRED CR4 bit to the CR4 pinned bits mask so
that whenever something else modifies CR4, that bit remains set. Which
in itself is a perfectly fine idea.
However, there's an issue when during boot FRED is initialized: first on
the BSP and later on the APs. Thus, there's a window in time when
exceptions cannot be handled.
This becomes particularly nasty when running as SEV-{ES,SNP} or TDX
guests which, when they manage to trigger exceptions during that short
window described above, triple fault due to FRED MSRs not being set up
yet.
See Link tag below for a much more detailed explanation of the
situation.
So, as a result, the commit in that Link URL tried to address this
shortcoming by temporarily disabling CR4 pinning when an AP is not
online yet.
However, that is a problem in itself because in this case, an attack on
the kernel needs to only modify the online bit - a single bit in RW
memory - and then disable CR4 pinning and then disable SM*P, leading to
more and worse things to happen to the system.
So, instead, remove the FRED bit from the CR4 pinning mask, thus
obviating the need to temporarily disable CR4 pinning.
If someone manages to disable FRED when poking at CR4, then
idt_invalidate() would make sure the system would crash'n'burn on the
first exception triggered, which is a much better outcome security-wise.

Move FSGSBASE enablement from identify_cpu() to cpu_init_exception_handling()
to ensure it is enabled before any exceptions can occur on both boot and
secondary CPUs.
== Background ==
Exception entry code (paranoid_entry()) uses ALTERNATIVE patching based on
X86_FEATURE_FSGSBASE to decide whether to use RDGSBASE/WRGSBASE instructions
or the slower RDMSR/SWAPGS sequence for saving/restoring GSBASE.
On boot CPU, ALTERNATIVE patching happens after enabling FSGSBASE in CR4.
When the feature is available, the code is permanently patched to use
RDGSBASE/WRGSBASE, which require CR4.FSGSBASE=1 to execute without triggering
== Boot Sequence ==
Boot CPU (with CR pinning enabled):
trap_init()
cpu_init() <- Uses unpatched code (RDMSR/SWAPGS)
x2apic_setup()
...
arch_cpu_finalize_init()
identify_boot_cpu()
identify_cpu()
cr4_set_bits(X86_CR4_FSGSBASE) # Enables the feature
# This becomes part of cr4_pinned_bits
...
alternative_instructions() <- Patches code to use RDGSBASE/WRGSBASE
Secondary CPUs (with CR pinning enabled):
start_secondary()
cr4_init() <- Code already patched, CR4.FSGSBASE=1
set implicitly via cr4_pinned_bits
cpu_init() <- exceptions work because FSGSBASE is
already enabled
Secondary CPU (with CR pinning disabled):
start_secondary()
cr4_init() <- Code already patched, CR4.FSGSBASE=0
cpu_init()
x2apic_setup()
rdmsrq(MSR_IA32_APICBASE) <- Triggers #VC in SNP guests
exc_vmm_communication()
paranoid_entry() <- Uses RDGSBASE with CR4.FSGSBASE=0
(patched code)
...
ap_starting()
identify_secondary_cpu()
identify_cpu()
cr4_set_bits(X86_CR4_FSGSBASE) <- Enables the feature, which is
too late
== CR Pinning ==
Currently, for secondary CPUs, CR4.FSGSBASE is set implicitly through
CR-pinning: the boot CPU sets it during identify_cpu(), it becomes part of
cr4_pinned_bits, and cr4_init() applies those pinned bits to secondary CPUs.
This works but creates an undocumented dependency between cr4_init() and the
pinning mechanism.
== Problem ==
Secondary CPUs boot after alternatives have been applied globally. They
execute already-patched paranoid_entry() code that uses RDGSBASE/WRGSBASE
instructions, which require CR4.FSGSBASE=1. Upcoming changes to CR pinning
behavior will break the implicit dependency, causing secondary CPUs to
generate #UD.
This issue manifests itself on AMD SEV-SNP guests, where the rdmsrq() in
x2apic_setup() triggers a #VC exception early during cpu_init(). The #VC
handler (exc_vmm_communication()) executes the patched paranoid_entry() path.
Without CR4.FSGSBASE enabled, RDGSBASE instructions trigger #UD.
== Fix ==
Enable FSGSBASE explicitly in cpu_init_exception_handling() before loading
exception handlers. This makes the dependency explicit and ensures both
boot and secondary CPUs have FSGSBASE enabled before paranoid_entry()
executes.

People do effort to inject MCEs into guests in order to simulate/test
handling of hardware errors. The real use case behind it is testing the
handling of SIGBUS which the memory failure code sends to the process.
If that process is QEMU, instead of killing the whole guest, the MCE can
be injected into the guest kernel so that latter can attempt proper
handling and kill the user *process* in the guest, instead, which
caused the MCE. The assumption being here that the whole injection flow
can supply enough information that the guest kernel can pinpoint the
right process. But that's a different topic...
Regardless of virtualization or not, access to SMCA-specific registers
like MCA_DESTAT should only be done after having checked the smca
feature bit. And there are AMD machines like Bulldozer (the one before
Zen1) which do support deferred errors but are not SMCA machines.
Therefore, properly check the feature bit before accessing related MSRs.

When resuming from s2ram, firmware may re-enable x2apic mode, which may have
been disabled by the kernel during boot either because it doesn't support IRQ
remapping or for other reasons. This causes the kernel to continue using the
xapic interface, while the hardware is in x2apic mode, which causes hangs.
This happens on defconfig + bare metal + s2ram.
Fix this in lapic_resume() by disabling x2apic if the kernel expects it to be
disabled, i.e. when x2apic_mode = 0.
The ACPI v6.6 spec, Section 16.3 [1] says firmware restores either the
pre-sleep configuration or initial boot configuration for each CPU, including
MSR state:
When executing from the power-on reset vector as a result of waking from an
S2 or S3 sleep state, the platform firmware performs only the hardware
initialization required to restore the system to either the state the
platform was in prior to the initial operating system boot, or to the
pre-sleep configuration state. In multiprocessor systems, non-boot
processors should be placed in the same state as prior to the initial
operating system boot.
(further ahead)
If this is an S2 or S3 wake, then the platform runtime firmware restores
minimum context of the system before jumping to the waking vector. This
includes:
CPU configuration. Platform runtime firmware restores the pre-sleep
configuration or initial boot configuration of each CPU (MSR, MTRR,
firmware update, SMBase, and so on). Interrupts must be disabled (for
IA-32 processors, disabled by CLI instruction).
(and other things)
So at least as per the spec, re-enablement of x2apic by the firmware is
allowed if "x2apic on" is a part of the initial boot configuration.

Use the MADT and SRAT table data to compute __num_nodes_per_package.
Specifically, SRAT has already been parsed in x86_numa_init(), which is called
before acpi_boot_init() which parses MADT. So both are available in
topology_init_possible_cpus().
This number is useful to divinate the various Intel CoD/SNC and AMD NPS modes,
since the platforms are failing to provide this otherwise.
Doing it this way is independent of the number of online CPUs and

Commit 3e86e4d74c ("kbuild: keep .modinfo section in
vmlinux.unstripped") added .modinfo to ELF_DETAILS while removing it
from COMMON_DISCARDS, as it was needed in vmlinux.unstripped and
ELF_DETAILS was present in all architecture specific vmlinux linker
scripts. While this shuffle is fine for vmlinux, ELF_DETAILS and
COMMON_DISCARDS may be used by other linker scripts, such as the s390
and x86 compressed boot images, which may not expect to have a .modinfo
section. In certain circumstances, this could result in a bootloader
failing to load the compressed kernel [1].
Commit ddc6cbef3e ("s390/boot/vmlinux.lds.S: Ensure bzImage ends with
SecureBoot trailer") recently addressed this for the s390 bzImage but
the same bug remains for arm, parisc, and x86. The presence of .modinfo
in the x86 bzImage was the root cause of the issue worked around with
commit d50f210913 ("kbuild: align modinfo section for Secureboot
Authenticode EDK2 compat"). misc.c in arch/x86/boot/compressed includes
lib/decompress_unzstd.c, which in turn includes lib/xxhash.c and its
MODULE_LICENSE / MODULE_DESCRIPTION macros due to the STATIC definition.
Split .modinfo out from ELF_DETAILS into its own macro and handle it in
all vmlinux linker scripts. Discard .modinfo in the places where it was
previously being discarded from being in COMMON_DISCARDS, as it has
never been necessary in those uses.

The commit 5b472b6e5b ("x86_64/bug: Implement __WARN_printf()")
implemented __WARN_printf(), which changed the mechanism to use UD1
instead of UD2. However, it only handles the trap in the runtime IDT
handler, while the early booting IDT handler lacks this handling. As a
result, the usage of WARN() before the runtime IDT setup can lead to
kernel crashes. Since KMSAN is enabled after the runtime IDT setup, it
is safe to use handle_bug() directly in early_fixup_exception() to
address this issue.

This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split
over multiple lines. I only did the ones that are easy to verify the
resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next
line.
Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for
me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the
middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial.
So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the
syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed'
scripts.
The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want
whitespace cleanup anyway.

This is the exact same thing as the 'alloc_obj()' version, only much
smaller because there are a lot fewer users of the *alloc_flex()
interface.
As with alloc_obj() version, this was done entirely with mindless brute
force, using the same script, except using 'flex' in the pattern rather
than 'objs*'.
Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using
git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'
to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

MSVC compiler, used to compile the Microsoft Hypervisor, currently
has an assert intrinsic that uses interrupt vector 0x29 to create an
exception. This will cause hypervisor to then crash and collect core. As
such, if this interrupt number is assigned to a device by Linux and the
device generates it, hypervisor will crash. There are two other such
vectors hard coded in the hypervisor, 0x2C and 0x2D for debug purposes.
Fortunately, the three vectors are part of the kernel driver space and
that makes it feasible to reserve them early so they are not assigned
later.

Dave reports that kexec may fail when the first kernel boots via the EFI
stub but without EFI runtime services, as in that case, the RSDP address
field in struct bootparams is never assigned. Kexec copies this value
into the version of struct bootparams that it provides to the incoming
kernel, which may have no other means to locate the ACPI root pointer.
So take the value from the EFI config tables if no root pointer has been
set in the first kernel's struct bootparams.

Scheduler Kconfig space updates:
- Further consolidate configurable preemption modes: reduce
the number of architectures that are allowed to offer
PREEMPT_NONE and PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY, reducing the number
of preemption models from four to just two: 'full' and 'lazy'
on up-to-date architectures (arm64, loongarch, powerpc,
riscv, s390, x86).
None and voluntary are only available as legacy features
on platforms that don't implement lazy preemption yet,
or which don't even support preemption.
The goal is to eventually remove cond_resched() and
voluntary preemption altogether.
(Peter Zijlstra)
RSEQ based 'scheduler time slice extension' support:
This allows a thread to request a time slice extension when it
enters a critical section to avoid contention on a resource when
the thread is scheduled out inside of the critical section.
- Add fields and constants for time slice extension
- Provide static branch for time slice extensions
- Add statistics for time slice extensions
- Add prctl() to enable time slice extensions
- Implement sys_rseq_slice_yield()

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Scheduler Kconfig space updates:
- Further consolidate configurable preemption modes (Peter Zijlstra)
Reduce the number of architectures that are allowed to offer
PREEMPT_NONE and PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY, reducing the number of
preemption models from four to just two: 'full' and 'lazy' on
up-to-date architectures (arm64, loongarch, powerpc, riscv, s390,
x86).
None and voluntary are only available as legacy features on
platforms that don't implement lazy preemption yet, or which don't
even support preemption.
The goal is to eventually remove cond_resched() and voluntary
preemption altogether.
RSEQ based 'scheduler time slice extension' support (Thomas Gleixner
and Peter Zijlstra):
This allows a thread to request a time slice extension when it enters
a critical section to avoid contention on a resource when the thread
is scheduled out inside of the critical section.
- Add fields and constants for time slice extension
- Provide static branch for time slice extensions
- Add statistics for time slice extensions
- Add prctl() to enable time slice extensions
- Implement sys_rseq_slice_yield()
- Implement syscall entry work for time slice extensions
- Implement time slice extension enforcement timer
- Reset slice extension when scheduled
- Implement rseq_grant_slice_extension()
- entry: Hook up rseq time slice extension
- selftests: Implement time slice extension test
- Allow registering RSEQ with slice extension
- Move slice_ext_nsec to debugfs
- Lower default slice extension
- selftests/rseq: Add rseq slice histogram script
Scheduler performance/scalability improvements:
- Update rq->avg_idle when a task is moved to an idle CPU, which
improves the scalability of various workloads (Shubhang Kaushik)
- Reorder fields in 'struct rq' for better caching (Blake Jones)
- Fair scheduler SMP NOHZ balancing code speedups (Shrikanth Hegde):
- Move checking for nohz cpus after time check
- Change likelyhood of nohz.nr_cpus
- Remove nohz.nr_cpus and use weight of cpumask instead
- Avoid false sharing for sched_clock_irqtime (Wangyang Guo)
- Cleanups (Yury Norov):
- Drop useless cpumask_empty() in find_energy_efficient_cpu()
- Simplify task_numa_find_cpu()
- Use cpumask_weight_and() in sched_balance_find_dst_group()
DL scheduler updates:
- Add a deadline server for sched_ext tasks (by Andrea Righi and Joel
Fernandes, with fixes by Peter Zijlstra)
RT scheduler updates:
- Skip currently executing CPU in rto_next_cpu() (Chen Jinghuang)
Entry code updates and performance improvements (Jinjie Ruan)
This is part of the scheduler tree in this cycle due to inter-
dependencies with the RSEQ based time slice extension work:
- Remove unused syscall argument from syscall_trace_enter()
- Rework syscall_exit_to_user_mode_work() for architecture reuse
- Add arch_ptrace_report_syscall_entry/exit()
- Inline syscall_exit_work() and syscall_trace_enter()
Scheduler core updates (Peter Zijlstra):
- Rework sched_class::wakeup_preempt() and rq_modified_*()
- Avoid rq->lock bouncing in sched_balance_newidle()
- Rename rcu_dereference_check_sched_domain() =>
rcu_dereference_sched_domain()
- <linux/compiler_types.h>: Add the __signed_scalar_typeof() helper
Fair scheduler updates/refactoring (Peter Zijlstra and Ingo Molnar):
- Fold the sched_avg update
- Change rcu_dereference_check_sched_domain() to rcu-sched
- Switch to rcu_dereference_all()
- Remove superfluous rcu_read_lock()
- Limit hrtick work
- Join two #ifdef CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED blocks
- Clean up comments in 'struct cfs_rq'
- Separate se->vlag from se->vprot
- Rename cfs_rq::avg_load to cfs_rq::sum_weight
- Rename cfs_rq::avg_vruntime to ::sum_w_vruntime & helper functions
- Introduce and use the vruntime_cmp() and vruntime_op() wrappers for
wrapped-signed aritmetics
- Sort out 'blocked_load*' namespace noise
Scheduler debugging code updates:
- Export hidden tracepoints to modules (Gabriele Monaco)
- Convert copy_from_user() + kstrtouint() to kstrtouint_from_user()
(Fushuai Wang)
- Add assertions to QUEUE_CLASS (Peter Zijlstra)
- hrtimer: Fix tracing oddity (Thomas Gleixner)
Misc fixes and cleanups:
- Re-evaluate scheduling when migrating queued tasks out of throttled
cgroups (Zicheng Qu)
- Remove task_struct->faults_disabled_mapping (Christoph Hellwig)
- Fix math notation errors in avg_vruntime comment (Zhan Xusheng)
- sched/cpufreq: Use %pe format for PTR_ERR() printing

x86 PMU driver updates:
- Add support for the core PMU for Intel Diamond Rapids (DMR) CPUs.
Compared to previous iterations of the Intel PMU code, there's
been a lot of changes, which center around three main areas:
- Introduce the OFF-MODULE RESPONSE (OMR) facility to
replace the Off-Core Response (OCR) facility
- New PEBS data source encoding layout
- Support the new "RDPMC user disable" feature
(Dapeng Mi)
- Likewise, a large series adds uncore PMU support for
Intel Diamond Rapids (DMR) CPUs, which center around these
four main areas:
- DMR may have two Integrated I/O and Memory Hub (IMH) dies,
separate from the compute tile (CBB) dies. Each CBB and
each IMH die has its own discovery domain.
- Unlike prior CPUs that retrieve the global discovery table
portal exclusively via PCI or MSR, DMR uses PCI for IMH PMON
discovery and MSR for CBB PMON discovery.
- DMR introduces several new PMON types: SCA, HAMVF, D2D_ULA,
UBR, PCIE4, CRS, CPC, ITC, OTC, CMS, and PCIE6.
- IIO free-running counters in DMR are MMIO-based, unlike SPR.
(Zide Chen)
- Also add support for Add missing PMON units for Intel Panther Lake,
and support Nova Lake (NVL), which largely maps to Panther Lake.
(Zide Chen)
- KVM integration: Add support for mediated vPMUs (by Kan Liang
and Sean Christopherson, with fixes and cleanups by Peter Zijlstra,
Sandipan Das and Mingwei Zhang)
- Add Intel cstate driver to support for Wildcat Lake (WCL)
CPUs, which are a low-power variant of Panther Lake.
(Zide Chen)
- Add core, cstate and MSR PMU support for the Airmont NP Intel CPU
(aka MaxLinear Lightning Mountain), which maps to the existing
Airmont code. (Martin Schiller)
Performance enhancements:
- core: Speed up kexec shutdown by avoiding unnecessary
cross CPU calls. (Jan H. Schönherr)
- core: Fix slow perf_event_task_exit() with LBR callstacks
(Namhyung Kim)
User-space stack unwinding support:
- Various cleanups and refactorings in preparation to generalize
the unwinding code for other architectures. (Jens Remus)
Uprobes updates:
- Transition from kmap_atomic to kmap_local_page (Keke Ming)
- Fix incorrect lockdep condition in filter_chain() (Breno Leitao)
- Fix XOL allocation failure for 32-bit tasks (Oleg Nesterov)
Misc fixes and cleanups:
- s390: Remove kvm_types.h from Kbuild (Randy Dunlap)
- x86/intel/uncore: Convert comma to semicolon (Chen Ni)
- x86/uncore: Clean up const mismatch (Greg Kroah-Hartman)

Read-mostly sched_clock_irqtime may share the same cacheline with
frequently updated nohz struct. Make it as static_key to avoid
false sharing issue.
The only user of disable_sched_clock_irqtime()
is tsc_.*mark_unstable() which may be invoked under atomic context
and require a workqueue to disable static_key. But both of them
calls clear_sched_clock_stable() just before doing
disable_sched_clock_irqtime(). We can reuse
"sched_clock_work" to also disable sched_clock_irqtime().
One additional case need to handle is if the tsc is marked unstable
before late_initcall() phase, sched_clock_work will not be invoked
and sched_clock_irqtime will stay enabled although clock is unstable:
tsc_init()
enable_sched_clock_irqtime() # irqtime accounting is enabled here
...
if (unsynchronized_tsc()) # true
mark_tsc_unstable()
clear_sched_clock_stable()
__sched_clock_stable_early = 0;
...
if (static_key_count(&sched_clock_running.key) == 2)
# Only happens at sched_clock_init_late()
__clear_sched_clock_stable(); # Never executed
...
# late_initcall() phase
sched_clock_init_late()
if (__sched_clock_stable_early) # Already false
__set_sched_clock_stable(); # sched_clock is never marked stable
# TSC unstable, but sched_clock_work won't run to disable irqtime
So we need to disable_sched_clock_irqtime() in sched_clock_init_late()
if clock is unstable.
