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>kvm: properly check debugfs dentry before using it</title>

debugfs can now report an error code if something went wrong instead of
just NULL.  So if the return value is to be used as a "real" dentry, it
needs to be checked if it is an error before dereferencing it.

This is now happening because of ff9fb72bc077 ("debugfs: return error
values, not NULL").  syzbot has found a way to trigger multiple debugfs
files attempting to be created, which fails, and then the error code
gets passed to dentry_path_raw() which obviously does not like it.

KVM/ARM fixes for 5.0:

- Fix the way we reset vcpus, plugging the race that could happen on VHE
- Fix potentially inconsistent group setting for private interrupts
- Don't generate UNDEF when LORegion feature is present
- Relax the restriction on using stage2 PUD huge mapping
- Turn some spinlocks into raw_spinlocks to help RT compliance

<title>kvm: fix kvm_ioctl_create_device() reference counting (CVE-2019-6974)</title>

kvm_ioctl_create_device() does the following:

1. creates a device that holds a reference to the VM object (with a borrowed
   reference, the VM's refcount has not been bumped yet)
2. initializes the device
3. transfers the reference to the device to the caller's file descriptor table
4. calls kvm_get_kvm() to turn the borrowed reference to the VM into a real
   reference

The ownership transfer in step 3 must not happen before the reference to the VM
becomes a proper, non-borrowed reference, which only happens in step 4.
After step 3, an attacker can close the file descriptor and drop the borrowed
reference, which can cause the refcount of the kvm object to drop to zero.

This means that we need to grab a reference for the device before
anon_inode_getfd(), otherwise the VM can disappear from under us.

We restrict mapping the PUD huge pages in stage2 to only when the
stage2 has 4 level page table, leaving the feature unused with
the default IPA size. But we could use it even with a 3
level page table, i.e, when the PUD level is folded into PGD,
just like the stage1. Relax the condition to allow using the
PUD huge page mappings at stage2 when it is possible.

<title>KVM: arm/arm64: vgic: Always initialize the group of private IRQs</title>

<author>

<id>ab2d5eb03dbb7b37a1c6356686fb48626ab0c93e</id>
<content type='text'>
We currently initialize the group of private IRQs during
kvm_vgic_vcpu_init, and the value of the group depends on the GIC model
we are emulating.  However, CPUs created before creating (and
initializing) the VGIC might end up with the wrong group if the VGIC
is created as GICv3 later.

Since we have no enforced ordering of creating the VGIC and creating
VCPUs, we can end up with part the VCPUs being properly intialized and
the remaining incorrectly initialized.  That also means that we have no
single place to do the per-cpu data structure initialization which
depends on knowing the emulated GIC model (which is only the group
field).

This patch removes the incorrect comment from kvm_vgic_vcpu_init and
initializes the group of all previously created VCPUs's private
interrupts in vgic_init in addition to the existing initialization in
kvm_vgic_vcpu_init.

The current kvm_psci_vcpu_on implementation will directly try to
manipulate the state of the VCPU to reset it.  However, since this is
not done on the thread that runs the VCPU, we can end up in a strangely
corrupted state when the source and target VCPUs are running at the same
time.

Fix this by factoring out all reset logic from the PSCI implementation
and forwarding the required information along with a request to the
target VCPU.
