The hypercall page is no longer needed. It can be removed, as from the
Xen perspective it is optional.
But, from Linux's perspective, it removes naked RET instructions that
escape the speculative protections that Call Depth Tracking and/or
Untrain Ret are trying to achieve.
This is part of XSA-466 / CVE-2024-53241.

In order to be able to differentiate between AMD and Intel based
systems for very early hypercalls without having to rely on the Xen
hypercall page, make get_cpu_vendor() non-static.
Refactor early_cpu_init() for the same reason by splitting out the
loop initializing cpu_devs() into an externally callable function.

read_hv_sched_clock_tsc() assumes that the Hyper-V clock counter is
bigger than the variable hv_sched_clock_offset, which is cached during
early boot, but depending on the timing this assumption may be false
when a hibernated VM starts again (the clock counter starts from 0
again) and is resuming back (Note: hv_init_tsc_clocksource() is not
called during hibernation/resume); consequently,
read_hv_sched_clock_tsc() may return a negative integer (which is
interpreted as a huge positive integer since the return type is u64)
and new kernel messages are prefixed with huge timestamps before
read_hv_sched_clock_tsc() grows big enough (which typically takes
several seconds).
Fix the issue by saving the Hyper-V clock counter just before the
suspend, and using it to correct the hv_sched_clock_offset in
resume. This makes hv tsc page based sched_clock continuous and ensures
that post resume, it starts from where it left off during suspend.
Override x86_platform.save_sched_clock_state and
x86_platform.restore_sched_clock_state routines to correct this as soon
as possible.
Note: if Invariant TSC is available, the issue doesn't happen because
1) we don't register read_hv_sched_clock_tsc() for sched clock:
See commit e5313f1c5404 ("clocksource/drivers/hyper-v: Rework
clocksource and sched clock setup");
2) the common x86 code adjusts TSC similarly: see
__restore_processor_state() -> tsc_verify_tsc_adjust(true) and
x86_platform.restore_sched_clock_state().

Linux remembers cpu_cachinfo::num_leaves per CPU, but x86 initializes all
CPUs from the same global "num_cache_leaves".
This is erroneous on systems such as Meteor Lake, where each CPU has a
distinct num_leaves value. Delete the global "num_cache_leaves" and
initialize num_leaves on each CPU.
init_cache_level() no longer needs to set num_leaves. Also, it never had to
set num_levels as it is unnecessary in x86. Keep checking for zero cache
leaves. Such condition indicates a bug.

The restore_processor_state() function explicitly states that "the asm code
that gets us here will have restored a usable GDT". That wasn't true in the
case of returning from a ::preserve_context kexec. Make it so.
Without this, the kernel was depending on the called function to reload a
GDT which is appropriate for the kernel before returning.

When XSTATE_BV[i] is 0, and XRSTOR attempts to restore state component
'i' it ignores any value in the XSAVE buffer and instead restores the
state component's init value.
This means that if XSAVE writes XSTATE_BV[PKRU]=0 then XRSTOR will
ignore the value that update_pkru_in_sigframe() writes to the XSAVE buffer.
XSTATE_BV[PKRU] only gets written as 0 if PKRU is in its init state. On
Intel CPUs, basically never happens because the kernel usually
overwrites the init value (aside: this is why we didn't notice this bug
until now). But on AMD, the init tracker is more aggressive and will
track PKRU as being in its init state upon any wrpkru(0x0).
Unfortunately, sig_prepare_pkru() does just that: wrpkru(0x0).
This writes XSTATE_BV[PKRU]=0 which makes XRSTOR ignore the PKRU value
in the sigframe.
To fix this, always overwrite the sigframe XSTATE_BV with a value that
has XSTATE_BV[PKRU]==1. This ensures that XRSTOR will not ignore what
update_pkru_in_sigframe() wrote.
The problematic sequence of events is something like this:
Userspace does:
* wrpkru(0xffff0000) (or whatever)
* Hardware sets: XINUSE[PKRU]=1
Signal happens, kernel is entered:
* sig_prepare_pkru() => wrpkru(0x00000000)
* Hardware sets: XINUSE[PKRU]=0 (aggressive AMD init tracker)
* XSAVE writes most of XSAVE buffer, including
XSTATE_BV[PKRU]=XINUSE[PKRU]=0
* update_pkru_in_sigframe() overwrites PKRU in XSAVE buffer
... signal handling
* XRSTOR sees XSTATE_BV[PKRU]==0, ignores just-written value
from update_pkru_in_sigframe()

Add the build support for using Clang's Propeller optimizer. Like
AutoFDO, Propeller uses hardware sampling to gather information
about the frequency of execution of different code paths within a
binary. This information is then used to guide the compiler's
optimization decisions, resulting in a more efficient binary.
The support requires a Clang compiler LLVM 19 or later, and the
create_llvm_prof tool
(https://github.com/google/autofdo/releases/tag/v0.30.1). This
commit is limited to x86 platforms that support PMU features
like LBR on Intel machines and AMD Zen3 BRS.
Here is an example workflow for building an AutoFDO+Propeller
optimized kernel:
1) Build the kernel on the host machine, with AutoFDO and Propeller
build config
CONFIG_AUTOFDO_CLANG=y
CONFIG_PROPELLER_CLANG=y
then
$ make LLVM=1 CLANG_AUTOFDO_PROFILE=<autofdo_profile>
“<autofdo_profile>” is the profile collected when doing a non-Propeller
AutoFDO build. This step builds a kernel that has the same optimization
level as AutoFDO, plus a metadata section that records basic block
information. This kernel image runs as fast as an AutoFDO optimized
kernel.
2) Install the kernel on test/production machines.
3) Run the load tests. The '-c' option in perf specifies the sample
event period. We suggest using a suitable prime number,
like 500009, for this purpose.
For Intel platforms:
$ perf record -e BR_INST_RETIRED.NEAR_TAKEN:k -a -N -b -c <count> \
-o <perf_file> -- <loadtest>
For AMD platforms:
The supported system are: Zen3 with BRS, or Zen4 with amd_lbr_v2
# To see if Zen3 support LBR:
$ cat proc/cpuinfo | grep " brs"
# To see if Zen4 support LBR:
$ cat proc/cpuinfo | grep amd_lbr_v2
# If the result is yes, then collect the profile using:
$ perf record --pfm-events RETIRED_TAKEN_BRANCH_INSTRUCTIONS:k -a \
-N -b -c <count> -o <perf_file> -- <loadtest>
4) (Optional) Download the raw perf file to the host machine.
5) Generate Propeller profile:
$ create_llvm_prof --binary=<vmlinux> --profile=<perf_file> \
--format=propeller --propeller_output_module_name \
--out=<propeller_profile_prefix>_cc_profile.txt \
--propeller_symorder=<propeller_profile_prefix>_ld_profile.txt
“create_llvm_prof” is the profile conversion tool, and a prebuilt
binary for linux can be found on
https://github.com/google/autofdo/releases/tag/v0.30.1 (can also build
from source).
"<propeller_profile_prefix>" can be something like
"/home/user/dir/any_string".
This command generates a pair of Propeller profiles:
"<propeller_profile_prefix>_cc_profile.txt" and
"<propeller_profile_prefix>_ld_profile.txt".
6) Rebuild the kernel using the AutoFDO and Propeller profile files.
CONFIG_AUTOFDO_CLANG=y
CONFIG_PROPELLER_CLANG=y
and
$ make LLVM=1 CLANG_AUTOFDO_PROFILE=<autofdo_profile> \
CLANG_PROPELLER_PROFILE_PREFIX=<propeller_profile_prefix>

When the size isn't a small constant, __access_ok() will call
valid_user_address() with the address after the last byte of the user

It is valid for a buffer to end with the last valid user address so
valid_user_address() must allow accesses to the base of the guard page.
[ This introduces an off-by-one in the other direction for the plain
non-sized accesses, but since we have that guard region that is a

don't really matter. The access will fault anyway, whether to the

On systems that enumerate PPIN (protected processor inventory
number) using CPUID, but where the BIOS locked the MSR to
prevent access /proc/cpuinfo reports "intel_ppin" feature as
present on all logical CPUs except for CPU 0.
This happens because ppin_init() uses x86_match_cpu() to
determine whether PPIN is supported. When called on CPU 0
the test for locked PPIN MSR results in:
clear_cpu_cap(c, info->feature);
This clears the X86 FEATURE bit in boot_cpu_data. When other
CPUs are brought online the x86_match_cpu() fails, and the
PPIN FEATURE bit remains set for those other CPUs.
Fix by using setup_clear_cpu_cap() instead of clear_cpu_cap()
which force clears the FEATURE bit for all CPUS.

Pull ftrace updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Restructure the function graph shadow stack to prepare it for use
with kretprobes
With the goal of merging the shadow stack logic of function graph and
kretprobes, some more restructuring of the function shadow stack is
required.
Move out function graph specific fields from the fgraph
infrastructure and store it on the new stack variables that can pass
data from the entry callback to the exit callback.
Hopefully, with this change, the merge of kretprobes to use fgraph
shadow stacks will be ready by the next merge window.
- Make shadow stack 4k instead of using PAGE_SIZE.
Some architectures have very large PAGE_SIZE values which make its
use for shadow stacks waste a lot of memory.
- Give shadow stacks its own kmem cache.
When function graph is started, every task on the system gets a
shadow stack. In the future, shadow stacks may not be 4K in size.
Have it have its own kmem cache so that whatever size it becomes will
still be efficient in allocations.
- Initialize profiler graph ops as it will be needed for new updates to
fgraph
- Convert to use guard(mutex) for several ftrace and fgraph functions
- Add more comments and documentation
- Show function return address in function graph tracer
Add an option to show the caller of a function at each entry of the
function graph tracer, similar to what the function tracer does.
- Abstract out ftrace_regs from being used directly like pt_regs
ftrace_regs was created to store a partial pt_regs. It holds only the
registers and stack information to get to the function arguments and
return values. On several archs, it is simply a wrapper around
pt_regs. But some users would access ftrace_regs directly to get the
pt_regs which will not work on all archs. Make ftrace_regs an
abstract structure that requires all access to its fields be through
accessor functions.
- Show how long it takes to do function code modifications
When code modification for function hooks happen, it always had the
time recorded in how long it took to do the conversion. But this
value was never exported. Recently the code was touched due to new
ROX modification handling that caused a large slow down in doing the
modifications and had a significant impact on boot times.
Expose the timings in the dyn_ftrace_total_info file. This file was
created a while ago to show information about memory usage and such
to implement dynamic function tracing. It's also an appropriate file
to store the timings of this modification as well. This will make it
easier to see the impact of changes to code modification on boot up
timings.
- Other clean ups and small fixes

Pull vdso data page handling updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"First steps of consolidating the VDSO data page handling.
The VDSO data page handling is architecture specific for historical
reasons, but there is no real technical reason to do so.
Aside of that VDSO data has become a dump ground for various
mechanisms and fail to provide a clear separation of the
functionalities.
Clean this up by:
- consolidating the VDSO page data by getting rid of architecture
specific warts especially in x86 and PowerPC.
- removing the last includes of header files which are pulling in
other headers outside of the VDSO namespace.
- seperating timekeeping and other VDSO data accordingly.
Further consolidation of the VDSO page handling is done in subsequent
changes scheduled for the next merge window.
This also lays the ground for expanding the VDSO time getters for
independent PTP clocks in a generic way without making every
architecture add support seperately"

Pull interrupt subsystem updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Tree wide:
- Make nr_irqs static to the core code and provide accessor functions
to remove existing and prevent future aliasing problems with local
variables or function arguments of the same name.
Core code:
- Prevent freeing an interrupt in the devres code which is not
managed by devres in the first place.
- Use seq_put_decimal_ull_width() for decimal values output in
/proc/interrupts which increases performance significantly as it
avoids parsing the format strings over and over.
- Optimize raising the timer and hrtimer soft interrupts by using the
'set bit only' variants instead of the combined version which
checks whether ksoftirqd should be woken up. The latter is a
pointless exercise as both soft interrupts are raised in the
context of the timer interrupt and therefore never wake up
ksoftirqd.
- Delegate timer/hrtimer soft interrupt processing to a dedicated
thread on RT.
Timer and hrtimer soft interrupts are always processed in ksoftirqd
on RT enabled kernels. This can lead to high latencies when other
soft interrupts are delegated to ksoftirqd as well.
The separate thread allows to run them seperately under a RT
scheduling policy to reduce the latency overhead.
Drivers:
- New drivers or extensions of existing drivers to support Renesas
RZ/V2H(P), Aspeed AST27XX, T-HEAD C900 and ATMEL sam9x7 interrupt
chips
- Support for multi-cluster GICs on MIPS.
MIPS CPUs can come with multiple CPU clusters, where each CPU
cluster has its own GIC (Generic Interrupt Controller). This
requires to access the GIC of a remote cluster through a redirect
register block.
This is encapsulated into a set of helper functions to keep the
complexity out of the actual code paths which handle the GIC
details.
- Support for encrypted guests in the ARM GICV3 ITS driver
The ITS page needs to be shared with the hypervisor and therefore
must be decrypted.
