commit a9545779ee9e9e103648f6f2552e73cfe808d0f4 upstream.

Use kvm_pfn_t, a.k.a. u64, for the local 'pfn' variable when retrieving
a so called "remapped" hva/pfn pair.  In theory, the hva could resolve to
a pfn in high memory on a 32-bit kernel.

This bug was inadvertantly exposed by commit bd2fae8da794 ("KVM: do not
assume PTE is writable after follow_pfn"), which added an error PFN value
to the mix, causing gcc to comlain about overflowing the unsigned long.

  arch/x86/kvm/../../../virt/kvm/kvm_main.c: In function ‘hva_to_pfn_remapped’:
  include/linux/kvm_host.h:89:30: error: conversion from ‘long long unsigned int’

commit 9fd6dad1261a541b3f5fa7dc5b152222306e6702 upstream.

Currently, the follow_pfn function is exported for modules but
follow_pte is not.  However, follow_pfn is very easy to misuse,
because it does not provide protections (so most of its callers
assume the page is writable!) and because it returns after having
already unlocked the page table lock.

Provide instead a simplified version of follow_pte that does
not have the pmdpp and range arguments.  The older version
survives as follow_invalidate_pte() for use by fs/dax.c.

commit bd2fae8da794b55bf2ac02632da3a151b10e664c upstream.

In order to convert an HVA to a PFN, KVM usually tries to use
the get_user_pages family of functinso.  This however is not
possible for VM_IO vmas; in that case, KVM instead uses follow_pfn.

In doing this however KVM loses the information on whether the
PFN is writable.  That is usually not a problem because the main
use of VM_IO vmas with KVM is for BARs in PCI device assignment,
however it is a bug.  To fix it, use follow_pte and check pte_write
while under the protection of the PTE lock.  The information can
be used to fail hva_to_pfn_remapped or passed back to the
caller via *writable.

Usage of follow_pfn was introduced in commit add6a0cd1c5b ("KVM: MMU: try to fix
up page faults before giving up", 2016-07-05); however, even older version
have the same issue, all the way back to commit 2e2e3738af33 ("KVM:
Handle vma regions with no backing page", 2008-07-20), as they also did
not check whether the PFN was writable.

The use of a tagged address could be pretty confusing for the
whole memslot infrastructure as well as the MMU notifiers.

Forbid it altogether, as it never quite worked the first place.

In kvm_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start(), tlbs_dirty is used as:
        need_tlb_flush |= kvm-&gt;tlbs_dirty;
with need_tlb_flush's type being int and tlbs_dirty's type being long.

It means that tlbs_dirty is always used as int and the higher 32 bits
is useless.  We need to check tlbs_dirty in a correct way and this
change checks it directly without propagating it to need_tlb_flush.

Note: it's _extremely_ unlikely this neglecting of higher 32 bits can
cause problems in practice.  It would require encountering tlbs_dirty
on a 4 billion count boundary, and KVM would need to be using shadow
paging or be running a nested guest.

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "Much x86 work was pushed out to 5.12, but ARM more than made up for it.

  ARM:
   - PSCI relay at EL2 when "protected KVM" is enabled

   - Fix PMU accesses when no PMU is enabled
   - Expose CSV3 on non-Meltdown hosts
   - Cache hierarchy discovery fixes
   - PV steal-time cleanups
   - Allow function pointers at EL2
   - Various host EL2 entry cleanups
   - Simplification of the EL2 vector allocation

  s390:
   - memcg accouting for s390 specific parts of kvm and gmap
   - selftest for diag318
   - new kvm_stat for when async_pf falls back to sync

  x86:
   - Tracepoints for the new pagetable code from 5.10
   - Catch VFIO and KVM irqfd events before userspace
   - Reporting dirty pages to userspace with a ring buffer
   - SEV-ES host support
   - Nested VMX support for wait-for-SIPI activity state

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "Much x86 work was pushed out to 5.12, but ARM more than made up for it.

  ARM:
   - PSCI relay at EL2 when "protected KVM" is enabled
   - New exception injection code
   - Simplification of AArch32 system register handling
   - Fix PMU accesses when no PMU is enabled
   - Expose CSV3 on non-Meltdown hosts
   - Cache hierarchy discovery fixes
   - PV steal-time cleanups
   - Allow function pointers at EL2
   - Various host EL2 entry cleanups
   - Simplification of the EL2 vector allocation

  s390:
   - memcg accouting for s390 specific parts of kvm and gmap
   - selftest for diag318
   - new kvm_stat for when async_pf falls back to sync

  x86:
   - Tracepoints for the new pagetable code from 5.10
   - Catch VFIO and KVM irqfd events before userspace
   - Reporting dirty pages to userspace with a ring buffer
   - SEV-ES host support
   - Nested VMX support for wait-for-SIPI activity state
   - New feature flag (AVX512 FP16)
   - New system ioctl to report Hyper-V-compatible paravirtualization features

  Generic:
   - Selftest improvements"

A VCPU of a VM can allocate couple of pages which can be mmap'ed by the
user space application. At the moment this memory is not charged to the
memcg of the VMM. On a large machine running large number of VMs or
small number of VMs having large number of VCPUs, this unaccounted
memory can be very significant. So, charge this memory to the memcg of
the VMM. Please note that lifetime of these allocations corresponds to
the lifetime of the VMM.

<title>KVM: Don't allocate dirty bitmap if dirty ring is enabled</title>

Because kvm dirty rings and kvm dirty log is used in an exclusive way,
Let's avoid creating the dirty_bitmap when kvm dirty ring is enabled.
At the meantime, since the dirty_bitmap will be conditionally created
now, we can't use it as a sign of "whether this memory slot enabled
dirty tracking".  Change users like that to check against the kvm
memory slot flags.

Note that there still can be chances where the kvm memory slot got its
dirty_bitmap allocated, _if_ the memory slots are created before
enabling of the dirty rings and at the same time with the dirty
tracking capability enabled, they'll still with the dirty_bitmap.
However it should not hurt much (e.g., the bitmaps will always be
freed if they are there), and the real users normally won't trigger
this because dirty bit tracking flag should in most cases only be
applied to kvm slots only before migration starts, that should be far
latter than kvm initializes (VM starts).
