commit 3c0696076aad60a2f04c019761921954579e1b0e upstream.

It is currently possible for a userspace application to enter an
infinite page fault loop when using HugeTLB pages implemented with
contiguous PTEs when HAFDBS is not available. This happens because:

1. The kernel may sometimes write PTEs that are sw-dirty but hw-clean
   (PTE_DIRTY | PTE_RDONLY | PTE_WRITE).

2. If, during a write, the CPU uses a sw-dirty, hw-clean PTE in handling
   the memory access on a system without HAFDBS, we will get a page
   fault.

3. HugeTLB will check if it needs to update the dirty bits on the PTE.
   For contiguous PTEs, it will check to see if the pgprot bits need
   updating. In this case, HugeTLB wants to write a sequence of
   sw-dirty, hw-dirty PTEs, but it finds that all the PTEs it is about
   to overwrite are all pte_dirty() (pte_sw_dirty() =&gt; pte_dirty()),
   so it thinks no update is necessary.

We can get the kernel to write a sw-dirty, hw-clean PTE with the
following steps (showing the relevant VMA flags and pgprot bits):

i.   Create a valid, writable contiguous PTE.
       VMA vmflags:     VM_SHARED | VM_READ | VM_WRITE
       VMA pgprot bits: PTE_RDONLY | PTE_WRITE
       PTE pgprot bits: PTE_DIRTY | PTE_WRITE

ii.  mprotect the VMA to PROT_NONE.
       VMA vmflags:     VM_SHARED
       VMA pgprot bits: PTE_RDONLY
       PTE pgprot bits: PTE_DIRTY | PTE_RDONLY

iii. mprotect the VMA back to PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE.
       VMA vmflags:     VM_SHARED | VM_READ | VM_WRITE
       VMA pgprot bits: PTE_RDONLY | PTE_WRITE
       PTE pgprot bits: PTE_DIRTY | PTE_WRITE | PTE_RDONLY

Make it impossible to create a writeable sw-dirty, hw-clean PTE with
pte_modify(). Such a PTE should be impossible to create, and there may
be places that assume that pte_dirty() implies pte_hw_dirty().

<title>KVM: arm64: limit PMU version to PMUv3 for ARMv8.1</title>

commit c854188ea01062f5a5fd7f05658feb1863774eaa upstream.

We currently expose the PMU version of the host to the guest via
emulation of the DFR0_EL1 and AA64DFR0_EL1 debug feature registers.
However many of the features offered beyond PMUv3 for 8.1 are not
supported in KVM. Examples of this include support for the PMMIR
registers (added in PMUv3 for ARMv8.4) and 64-bit event counters
added in (PMUv3 for ARMv8.5).

Let's trap the Debug Feature Registers in order to limit
PMUVer/PerfMon in the Debug Feature Registers to PMUv3 for ARMv8.1
to avoid unexpected behaviour.

Both ID_AA64DFR0.PMUVer and ID_DFR0.PerfMon follow the "Alternative ID
scheme used for the Performance Monitors Extension version" where 0xF
means an IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED PMU is implemented, and values 0x0-0xE
are treated as with an unsigned field (with 0x0 meaning no PMU is
present). As we don't expect to expose an IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED PMU,
and our cap is below 0xF, we can treat these fields as unsigned when
applying the cap.

commit 8e35aa642ee4dab01b16cc4b2df59d1936f3b3c2 upstream.

When emulating ID registers there is often a need to cap the version
bits of a feature such that the guest will not use features that the
host is not aware of. For example, when KVM mediates access to the PMU
by emulating register accesses.

Let's add a helper that extracts a performance monitors ID field and
caps the version to a given value.

Fields that identify the version of the Performance Monitors Extension
do not follow the standard ID scheme, and instead follow the scheme
described in ARM DDI 0487E.a page D13-2825 "Alternative ID scheme used
for the Performance Monitors Extension version". The value 0xF means an
IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED PMU is present, and values 0x0-OxE can be treated
the same as an unsigned field with 0x0 meaning no PMU is present.

Currently only the first attempt to single-step has any effect. After
that all further stepping remains "stuck" at the same program counter
value.

Refer to the ARM Architecture Reference Manual (ARM DDI 0487E.a) D2.12,
PSTATE.SS=1 should be set at each step before transferring the PE to the
'Active-not-pending' state. The problem here is PSTATE.SS=1 is not set
since the second single-step.

After the first single-step, the PE transferes to the 'Inactive' state,
with PSTATE.SS=0 and MDSCR.SS=1, thus PSTATE.SS won't be set to 1 due to
kernel_active_single_step()=true. Then the PE transferes to the
'Active-pending' state when ERET and returns to the debugger by step
exception.

[ Upstream commit 031af50045ea97ed4386eb3751ca2c134d0fc911 ]

The inline assembly for arm64's cmpxchg_double*() implementations use a
+Q constraint to hazard against other accesses to the memory location
being exchanged. However, the pointer passed to the constraint is a
pointer to unsigned long, and thus the hazard only applies to the first
8 bytes of the location.

GCC can take advantage of this, assuming that other portions of the
location are unchanged, leading to a number of potential problems.

This is similar to what we fixed back in commit:

  fee960bed5e857eb ("arm64: xchg: hazard against entire exchange variable")

... but we forgot to adjust cmpxchg_double*() similarly at the same
time.

The same problem applies, as demonstrated with the following test:

| struct big {
|         u64 lo, hi;
| } __aligned(128);
|
| unsigned long foo(struct big *b)
| {
|         u64 hi_old, hi_new;
|
|         hi_old = b-&gt;hi;
|         cmpxchg_double_local(&amp;b-&gt;lo, &amp;b-&gt;hi, 0x12, 0x34, 0x56, 0x78);
|         hi_new = b-&gt;hi;
|
|         return hi_old ^ hi_new;
| }

... which GCC 12.1.0 compiles as:

Notice that at the lines with "BANG" comments, GCC has assumed that the
higher 8 bytes are unchanged by the cmpxchg_double() call, and that
`hi_old ^ hi_new` can be reduced to a constant zero, for both LSE and

... sampling the high 8 bytes before and after the cmpxchg, and
performing an EOR, as we'd expect.

For backporting, I've tested this atop linux-4.9.y with GCC 5.5.0. Note
that linux-4.9.y is oldest currently supported stable release, and
mandates GCC 5.1+. Unfortunately I couldn't get a GCC 5.1 binary to run
on my machines due to library incompatibilities.

I've also used a standalone test to check that we can use a __uint128_t
pointer in a +Q constraint at least as far back as GCC 4.8.5 and LLVM
3.9.1.

... sampling the high 8 bytes before and after the cmpxchg, and
performing an EOR, as we'd expect.

For backporting, I've tested this atop linux-4.9.y with GCC 5.5.0. Note
that linux-4.9.y is oldest currently supported stable release, and
mandates GCC 5.1+. Unfortunately I couldn't get a GCC 5.1 binary to run
on my machines due to library incompatibilities.

I've also used a standalone test to check that we can use a __uint128_t
pointer in a +Q constraint at least as far back as GCC 4.8.5 and LLVM
3.9.1.

<title>arm64: errata: Remove AES hwcap for COMPAT tasks</title>

commit 44b3834b2eed595af07021b1c64e6f9bc396398b upstream.

Cortex-A57 and Cortex-A72 have an erratum where an interrupt that
occurs between a pair of AES instructions in aarch32 mode may corrupt
the ELR. The task will subsequently produce the wrong AES result.

The AES instructions are part of the cryptographic extensions, which are
optional. User-space software will detect the support for these
instructions from the hwcaps. If the platform doesn't support these
instructions a software implementation should be used.

Remove the hwcap bits on affected parts to indicate user-space should
not use the AES instructions.

<title>arm64: map FDT as RW for early_init_dt_scan()</title>

commit e112b032a72c78f15d0c803c5dc6be444c2e6c66 upstream.

Currently in arm64, FDT is mapped to RO before it's passed to
early_init_dt_scan(). However, there might be some codes
(eg. commit "fdt: add support for rng-seed") that need to modify FDT
during init. Map FDT to RO after early fixups are done.
