mm: pgtable: introduce generic __tlb_remove_table()

2025-01-26T04:22:23Z

Several architectures (arm, arm64, riscv and x86) define exactly the same __tlb_remove_table(), just introduce generic __tlb_remove_table() to eliminate these duplications. The s390 __tlb_remove_table() is nearly the same, so also make s390 __tlb_remove_table() version generic.

arm64: pgtable: move pagetable_dtor() to __tlb_remove_table()

2025-01-26T04:22:22Z

Move pagetable_dtor() to __tlb_remove_table(), so that ptlock and page table pages can be freed together (regardless of whether RCU is used). This prevents the use-after-free problem where the ptlock is freed immediately but the page table pages is freed later via RCU. Page tables shouldn't have swap cache, so use pagetable_free() instead of free_page_and_swap_cache() to free page table pages.

mm: pgtable: introduce pagetable_dtor()

2025-01-26T04:22:22Z

The pagetable_p*_dtor() are exactly the same except for the handling of ptlock. If we make ptlock_free() handle the case where ptdesc->ptl is NULL and remove VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() from pmd_ptlock_free(), we can unify pagetable_p*_dtor() into one function. Let's introduce pagetable_dtor() to do this. Later, pagetable_dtor() will be moved to tlb_remove_ptdesc(), so that ptlock and page table pages can be freed together (regardless of whether RCU is used). This prevents the use-after-free problem where the ptlock is freed immediately but the page table pages is freed later via RCU.

asm-generic: pgalloc: provide generic p4d_{alloc_one,free}

2025-01-26T04:22:21Z

Four architectures currently implement 5-level pgtables: arm64, riscv, x86 and s390. The first three have essentially the same implementation for p4d_alloc_one() and p4d_free(), so we've got an opportunity to reduce duplication like at the lower levels. Provide a generic version of p4d_alloc_one() and p4d_free(), and make use of it on those architectures. Their implementation is the same as at PUD level, except that p4d_free() performs a runtime check by calling mm_p4d_folded(). 5-level pgtables depend on a runtime-detected hardware feature on all supported architectures, so we might as well include this check in the generic implementation. No runtime check is required in p4d_alloc_one() as the top-level p4d_alloc() already does the required check.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini: "Loongarch: - Clear LLBCTL if secondary mmu mapping changes - Add hypercall service support for usermode VMM x86: - Add a comment to kvm_mmu_do_page_fault() to explain why KVM performs a direct call to kvm_tdp_page_fault() when RETPOLINE is enabled - Ensure that all SEV code is compiled out when disabled in Kconfig, even if building with less brilliant compilers - Remove a redundant TLB flush on AMD processors when guest CR4.PGE changes - Use str_enabled_disabled() to replace open coded strings - Drop kvm_x86_ops.hwapic_irr_update() as KVM updates hardware's APICv cache prior to every VM-Enter - Overhaul KVM's CPUID feature infrastructure to track all vCPU capabilities instead of just those where KVM needs to manage state and/or explicitly enable the feature in hardware. Along the way, refactor the code to make it easier to add features, and to make it more self-documenting how KVM is handling each feature - Rework KVM's handling of VM-Exits during event vectoring; this plugs holes where KVM unintentionally puts the vCPU into infinite loops in some scenarios (e.g. if emulation is triggered by the exit), and brings parity between VMX and SVM - Add pending request and interrupt injection information to the kvm_exit and kvm_entry tracepoints respectively - Fix a relatively benign flaw where KVM would end up redoing RDPKRU when loading guest/host PKRU, due to a refactoring of the kernel helpers that didn't account for KVM's pre-checking of the need to do WRPKRU - Make the completion of hypercalls go through the complete_hypercall function pointer argument, no matter if the hypercall exits to userspace or not. Previously, the code assumed that KVM_HC_MAP_GPA_RANGE specifically went to userspace, and all the others did not; the new code need not special case KVM_HC_MAP_GPA_RANGE and in fact does not care at all whether there was an exit to userspace or not - As part of enabling TDX virtual machines, support support separation of private/shared EPT into separate roots. When TDX will be enabled, operations on private pages will need to go through the privileged TDX Module via SEAMCALLs; as a result, they are limited and relatively slow compared to reading a PTE. The patches included in 6.14 allow KVM to keep a mirror of the private EPT in host memory, and define entries in kvm_x86_ops to operate on external page tables such as the TDX private EPT - The recently introduced conversion of the NX-page reclamation kthread to vhost_task moved the task under the main process. The task is created as soon as KVM_CREATE_VM was invoked and this, of course, broke userspace that didn't expect to see any child task of the VM process until it started creating its own userspace threads. In particular crosvm refuses to fork() if procfs shows any child task, so unbreak it by creating the task lazily. This is arguably a userspace bug, as there can be other kinds of legitimate worker tasks and they wouldn't impede fork(); but it's not like userspace has a way to distinguish kernel worker tasks right now. Should they show as "Kthread: 1" in proc/.../status? x86 - Intel: - Fix a bug where KVM updates hardware's APICv cache of the highest ISR bit while L2 is active, while ultimately results in a hardware-accelerated L1 EOI effectively being lost - Honor event priority when emulating Posted Interrupt delivery during nested VM-Enter by queueing KVM_REQ_EVENT instead of immediately handling the interrupt - Rework KVM's processing of the Page-Modification Logging buffer to reap entries in the same order they were created, i.e. to mark gfns dirty in the same order that hardware marked the page/PTE dirty - Misc cleanups Generic: - Cleanup and harden kvm_set_memory_region(); add proper lockdep assertions when setting memory regions and add a dedicated API for setting KVM-internal memory regions. The API can then explicitly disallow all flags for KVM-internal memory regions - Explicitly verify the target vCPU is online in kvm_get_vcpu() to fix a bug where KVM would return a pointer to a vCPU prior to it being fully online, and give kvm_for_each_vcpu() similar treatment to fix a similar flaw - Wait for a vCPU to come online prior to executing a vCPU ioctl, to fix a bug where userspace could coerce KVM into handling the ioctl on a vCPU that isn't yet onlined - Gracefully handle xarray insertion failures; even though such failures are impossible in practice after xa_reserve(), reserving an entry is always followed by xa_store() which does not know (or differentiate) whether there was an xa_reserve() before or not RISC-V: - Zabha, Svvptc, and Ziccrse extension support for guests. None of them require anything in KVM except for detecting them and marking them as supported; Zabha adds byte and halfword atomic operations, while the others are markers for specific operation of the TLB and of LL/SC instructions respectively - Virtualize SBI system suspend extension for Guest/VM - Support firmware counters which can be used by the guests to collect statistics about traps that occur in the host Selftests: - Rework vcpu_get_reg() to return a value instead of using an out-param, and update all affected arch code accordingly - Convert the max_guest_memory_test into a more generic mmu_stress_test. The basic gist of the "conversion" is to have the test do mprotect() on guest memory while vCPUs are accessing said memory, e.g. to verify KVM and mmu_notifiers are working as intended - Play nice with treewrite builds of unsupported architectures, e.g. arm (32-bit), as KVM selftests' Makefile doesn't do anything to ensure the target architecture is actually one KVM selftests supports - Use the kernel's $(ARCH) definition instead of the target triple for arch specific directories, e.g. arm64 instead of aarch64, mainly so as not to be different from the rest of the kernel - Ensure that format strings for logging statements are checked by the compiler even when the logging statement itself is disabled - Attempt to whack the last LLC references/misses mole in the Intel PMU counters test by adding a data load and doing CLFLUSH{OPT} on the data instead of the code being executed. It seems that modern Intel CPUs have learned new code prefetching tricks that bypass the PMU counters - Fix a flaw in the Intel PMU counters test where it asserts that events are counting correctly without actually knowing what the events count given the underlying hardware; this can happen if Intel reuses a formerly microarchitecture-specific event encoding as an architectural event, as was the case for Top-Down Slots" * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm: (151 commits) kvm: defer huge page recovery vhost task to later KVM: x86/mmu: Return RET_PF* instead of 1 in kvm_mmu_page_fault() KVM: Disallow all flags for KVM-internal memslots KVM: x86: Drop double-underscores from __kvm_set_memory_region() KVM: Add a dedicated API for setting KVM-internal memslots KVM: Assert slots_lock is held when setting memory regions KVM: Open code kvm_set_memory_region() into its sole caller (ioctl() API) LoongArch: KVM: Add hypercall service support for usermode VMM LoongArch: KVM: Clear LLBCTL if secondary mmu mapping is changed KVM: SVM: Use str_enabled_disabled() helper in svm_hardware_setup() KVM: VMX: read the PML log in the same order as it was written KVM: VMX: refactor PML terminology KVM: VMX: Fix comment of handle_vmx_instruction() KVM: VMX: Reinstate __exit attribute for vmx_exit() KVM: SVM: Use str_enabled_disabled() helper in sev_hardware_setup() KVM: x86: Avoid double RDPKRU when loading host/guest PKRU KVM: x86: Use LVT_TIMER instead of an open coded literal RISC-V: KVM: Add new exit statstics for redirected traps RISC-V: KVM: Update firmware counters for various events RISC-V: KVM: Redirect instruction access fault trap to guest ...

Pull kthread updates from Frederic Weisbecker: "Kthreads affinity follow either of 4 existing different patterns: 1) Per-CPU kthreads must stay affine to a single CPU and never execute relevant code on any other CPU. This is currently handled by smpboot code which takes care of CPU-hotplug operations. Affinity here is a correctness constraint. 2) Some kthreads _have_ to be affine to a specific set of CPUs and can't run anywhere else. The affinity is set through kthread_bind_mask() and the subsystem takes care by itself to handle CPU-hotplug operations. Affinity here is assumed to be a correctness constraint. 3) Per-node kthreads _prefer_ to be affine to a specific NUMA node. This is not a correctness constraint but merely a preference in terms of memory locality. kswapd and kcompactd both fall into this category. The affinity is set manually like for any other task and CPU-hotplug is supposed to be handled by the relevant subsystem so that the task is properly reaffined whenever a given CPU from the node comes up. Also care should be taken so that the node affinity doesn't cross isolated (nohz_full) cpumask boundaries. 4) Similar to the previous point except kthreads have a _preferred_ affinity different than a node. Both RCU boost kthreads and RCU exp kworkers fall into this category as they refer to "RCU nodes" from a distinctly distributed tree. Currently the preferred affinity patterns (3 and 4) have at least 4 identified users, with more or less success when it comes to handle CPU-hotplug operations and CPU isolation. Each of which do it in its own ad-hoc way. This is an infrastructure proposal to handle this with the following API changes: - kthread_create_on_node() automatically affines the created kthread to its target node unless it has been set as per-cpu or bound with kthread_bind[_mask]() before the first wake-up. - kthread_affine_preferred() is a new function that can be called right after kthread_create_on_node() to specify a preferred affinity different than the specified node. When the preferred affinity can't be applied because the possible targets are offline or isolated (nohz_full), the kthread is affine to the housekeeping CPUs (which means to all online CPUs most of the time or only the non-nohz_full CPUs when nohz_full= is set). kswapd, kcompactd, RCU boost kthreads and RCU exp kworkers have been converted, along with a few old drivers. Summary of the changes: - Consolidate a bunch of ad-hoc implementations of kthread_run_on_cpu() - Introduce task_cpu_fallback_mask() that defines the default last resort affinity of a task to become nohz_full aware - Add some correctness check to ensure kthread_bind() is always called before the first kthread wake up. - Default affine kthread to its preferred node. - Convert kswapd / kcompactd and remove their halfway working ad-hoc affinity implementation - Implement kthreads preferred affinity - Unify kthread worker and kthread API's style - Convert RCU kthreads to the new API and remove the ad-hoc affinity implementation" * tag 'kthread-for-6.14-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/frederic/linux-dynticks: kthread: modify kernel-doc function name to match code rcu: Use kthread preferred affinity for RCU exp kworkers treewide: Introduce kthread_run_worker[_on_cpu]() kthread: Unify kthread_create_on_cpu() and kthread_create_worker_on_cpu() automatic format rcu: Use kthread preferred affinity for RCU boost kthread: Implement preferred affinity mm: Create/affine kswapd to its preferred node mm: Create/affine kcompactd to its preferred node kthread: Default affine kthread to its preferred NUMA node kthread: Make sure kthread hasn't started while binding it sched,arm64: Handle CPU isolation on last resort fallback rq selection arm64: Exclude nohz_full CPUs from 32bits el0 support lib: test_objpool: Use kthread_run_on_cpu() kallsyms: Use kthread_run_on_cpu() soc/qman: test: Use kthread_run_on_cpu() arm/bL_switcher: Use kthread_run_on_cpu()
