commit 152482580a1b0accb60676063a1ac57b2d12daf6 upstream.

kvm_arch_memslots_updated() is at this point in time an x86-specific
hook for handling MMIO generation wraparound.  x86 stashes 19 bits of
the memslots generation number in its MMIO sptes in order to avoid
full page fault walks for repeat faults on emulated MMIO addresses.
Because only 19 bits are used, wrapping the MMIO generation number is
possible, if unlikely.  kvm_arch_memslots_updated() alerts x86 that
the generation has changed so that it can invalidate all MMIO sptes in
case the effective MMIO generation has wrapped so as to avoid using a
stale spte, e.g. a (very) old spte that was created with generation==0.

Given that the purpose of kvm_arch_memslots_updated() is to prevent
consuming stale entries, it needs to be called before the new generation
is propagated to memslots.  Invalidating the MMIO sptes after updating
memslots means that there is a window where a vCPU could dereference
the new memslots generation, e.g. 0, and incorrectly reuse an old MMIO
spte that was created with (pre-wrap) generation==0.

<title>x86/unwind/orc: Fix ORC unwind table alignment</title>

commit f76a16adc485699f95bb71fce114f97c832fe664 upstream.

The .orc_unwind section is a packed array of 6-byte structs.  It's
currently aligned to 6 bytes, which is causing warnings in the LLD
linker.

Six isn't a power of two, so it's not a valid alignment value.  The
actual alignment doesn't matter much because it's an array of packed
structs.  An alignment of two is sufficient.  In reality it always gets
aligned to four bytes because it comes immediately after the
4-byte-aligned .orc_unwind_ip section.

<title>dm: fix to_sector() for 32bit</title>

commit 0bdb50c531f7377a9da80d3ce2d61f389c84cb30 upstream.

A dm-raid array with devices larger than 4GB won't assemble on
a 32 bit host since _check_data_dev_sectors() was added in 4.16.
This is because to_sector() treats its argument as an "unsigned long"
which is 32bits (4GB) on a 32bit host.  Using "unsigned long long"
is more correct.

Kernels as early as 4.2 can have other problems due to to_sector()
being used on the size of a device.

<title>arm64: Fix HCR.TGE status for NMI contexts</title>

commit 5870970b9a828d8693aa6d15742573289d7dbcd0 upstream.

When using VHE, the host needs to clear HCR_EL2.TGE bit in order
to interact with guest TLBs, switching from EL2&amp;0 translation regime
to EL1&amp;0.

However, some non-maskable asynchronous event could happen while TGE is
cleared like SDEI. Because of this address translation operations
relying on EL2&amp;0 translation regime could fail (tlb invalidation,
userspace access, ...).

Fix this by properly setting HCR_EL2.TGE when entering NMI context and
clear it if necessary when returning to the interrupted context.

commit 2b6e492467c78183bb629bb0a100ea3509b615a5 upstream.

With string type property entries we need to use
sizeof(const char *) instead of the number of characters as
the length of the entry.

If the string was shorter then sizeof(const char *),
attempts to read it would have failed with -EOVERFLOW. The
problem has been hidden because all build-in string
properties have had a string longer then 8 characters until
now.

commit a0ce2f0aa6ad97c3d4927bf2ca54bcebdf062d55 upstream.

Before this patch, it was possible for two pipes to affect each other after
data had been transferred between them with tee():

============
$ cat tee_test.c

int main(void) {
  int pipe_a[2];
  if (pipe(pipe_a)) err(1, "pipe");
  int pipe_b[2];
  if (pipe(pipe_b)) err(1, "pipe");
  if (write(pipe_a[1], "abcd", 4) != 4) err(1, "write");
  if (tee(pipe_a[0], pipe_b[1], 2, 0) != 2) err(1, "tee");
  if (write(pipe_b[1], "xx", 2) != 2) err(1, "write");

  char buf[5];
  if (read(pipe_a[0], buf, 4) != 4) err(1, "read");
  buf[4] = 0;
  printf("got back: '%s'\n", buf);
}
$ gcc -o tee_test tee_test.c
$ ./tee_test
got back: 'abxx'
$
============

As suggested by Al Viro, fix it by creating a separate type for
non-mergeable pipe buffers, then changing the types of buffers in
splice_pipe_to_pipe() and link_pipe().

<title>drm: disable uncached DMA optimization for ARM and arm64</title>

[ Upstream commit e02f5c1bb2283cfcee68f2f0feddcc06150f13aa ]

The DRM driver stack is designed to work with cache coherent devices
only, but permits an optimization to be enabled in some cases, where
for some buffers, both the CPU and the GPU use uncached mappings,
removing the need for DMA snooping and allocation in the CPU caches.

The use of uncached GPU mappings relies on the correct implementation
of the PCIe NoSnoop TLP attribute by the platform, otherwise the GPU
will use cached mappings nonetheless. On x86 platforms, this does not
seem to matter, as uncached CPU mappings will snoop the caches in any
case. However, on ARM and arm64, enabling this optimization on a
platform where NoSnoop is ignored results in loss of coherency, which
breaks correct operation of the device. Since we have no way of
detecting whether NoSnoop works or not, just disable this
optimization entirely for ARM and arm64.
