The syszkaller folks reported a residual mmio emulation request to userspace
due to vm86 fails to emulate inject real mode interrupt(fails to read CS) and
incurs a triple fault. The vCPU returns to userspace with vcpu-&gt;mmio_needed == true
and KVM_EXIT_SHUTDOWN exit reason. However, the syszkaller testcase constructs
several threads to launch the same vCPU, the thread which lauch this vCPU after
the thread whichs get the vcpu-&gt;mmio_needed == true and KVM_EXIT_SHUTDOWN will
trigger the warning.

This patch fixes it by resetting the vcpu-&gt;mmio_needed once we receive
the triple fault to avoid the residue.

<title>KVM: nVMX: Ignore limit checks on VMX instructions using flat segments</title>

commit 34333cc6c2cb021662fd32e24e618d1b86de95bf upstream.

Regarding segments with a limit==0xffffffff, the SDM officially states:

    When the effective limit is FFFFFFFFH (4 GBytes), these accesses may
    or may not cause the indicated exceptions.  Behavior is
    implementation-specific and may vary from one execution to another.

In practice, all CPUs that support VMX ignore limit checks for "flat
segments", i.e. an expand-up data or code segment with base=0 and
limit=0xffffffff.  This is subtly different than wrapping the effective
address calculation based on the address size, as the flat segment
behavior also applies to accesses that would wrap the 4g boundary, e.g.
a 4-byte access starting at 0xffffffff will access linear addresses
0xffffffff, 0x0, 0x1 and 0x2.

<title>KVM: nVMX: Sign extend displacements of VMX instr's mem operands</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 946c522b603f281195af1df91837a1d4d1eb3bc9 upstream.

The VMCS.EXIT_QUALIFCATION field reports the displacements of memory
operands for various instructions, including VMX instructions, as a
naturally sized unsigned value, but masks the value by the addr size,
e.g. given a ModRM encoded as -0x28(%ebp), the -0x28 displacement is
reported as 0xffffffd8 for a 32-bit address size.  Despite some weird
wording regarding sign extension, the SDM explicitly states that bits
beyond the instructions address size are undefined:

    In all cases, bits of this field beyond the instructionâ€™s address
    size are undefined.

Failure to sign extend the displacement results in KVM incorrectly
treating a negative displacement as a large positive displacement when
the address size of the VMX instruction is smaller than KVM's native
size, e.g. a 32-bit address size on a 64-bit KVM.

The very original decoding, added by commit 064aea774768 ("KVM: nVMX:
Decoding memory operands of VMX instructions"), sort of modeled sign
extension by truncating the final virtual/linear address for a 32-bit
address size.  I.e. it messed up the effective address but made it work
by adjusting the final address.

When segmentation checks were added, the truncation logic was kept
as-is and no sign extension logic was introduced.  In other words, it
kept calculating the wrong effective address while mostly generating
the correct virtual/linear address.  As the effective address is what's
used in the segment limit checks, this results in KVM incorreclty
injecting #GP/#SS faults due to non-existent segment violations when
a nested VMM uses negative displacements with an address size smaller
than KVM's native address size.

Using the -0x28(%ebp) example, an EBP value of 0x1000 will result in
KVM using 0x100000fd8 as the effective address when checking for a
segment limit violation.  This causes a 100% failure rate when running
a 32-bit KVM build as L1 on top of a 64-bit KVM L0.

commit 7b62f9bd2246b7d3d086e571397c14ba52645ef1 upstream.

Currently the opal log is globally readable. It is kernel policy to
limit the visibility of physical addresses / kernel pointers to root.
Given this and the fact the opal log may contain this information it
would be better to limit the readability to root.

<title>powerpc/wii: properly disable use of BATs when requested.</title>

commit 6d183ca8baec983dc4208ca45ece3c36763df912 upstream.

'nobats' kernel parameter or some options like CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC
deny the use of BATS for mapping memory.

This patch makes sure that the specific wii RAM mapping function
takes it into account as well.

commit 9580b71b5a7863c24a9bd18bcd2ad759b86b1eff upstream.

Clear the on-stack STACK_FRAME_REGS_MARKER on exception exit in order
to avoid confusing stacktrace like the one below.

  Call Trace:

  [c0e9dff0] [00003484] 0x3484

With this patch the trace becomes:

<title>m68k: Add -ffreestanding to CFLAGS</title>

commit 28713169d879b67be2ef2f84dcf54905de238294 upstream.

This patch fixes a build failure when using GCC 8.1:

/usr/bin/ld: block/partitions/ldm.o: in function `ldm_parse_tocblock':
block/partitions/ldm.c:153: undefined reference to `strcmp'

This is caused by a new optimization which effectively replaces a
strncmp() call with a strcmp() call. This affects a number of strncmp()
call sites in the kernel.

The entire class of optimizations is avoided with -fno-builtin, which
gets enabled by -ffreestanding. This may avoid possible future build
failures in case new optimizations appear in future compilers.

I haven't done any performance measurements with this patch but I did
count the function calls in a defconfig build. For example, there are now
23 more sprintf() calls and 39 fewer strcpy() calls. The effect on the
other libc functions is smaller.

If this harms performance we can tackle that regression by optimizing
the call sites, ideally using semantic patches. That way, clang and ICC
builds might benfit too.

commit eaf46edf6ea89675bd36245369c8de5063a0272c upstream.

The NEON MAC calculation routine fails to handle the case correctly
where there is some data in the buffer, and the input fills it up
exactly. In this case, we enter the loop at the end with w8 == 0,
while a negative value is assumed, and so the loop carries on until
the increment of the 32-bit counter wraps around, which is quite
obviously wrong.

So omit the loop altogether in this case, and exit right away.
