Instead of using six globally visible paravirt ops structures combine them in a single structure, keeping the original structures as sub-structures. This avoids the need to assemble struct paravirt_patch_template at runtime on the stack each time apply_paravirt() is being called (i.e. when loading a module).

A NMI can hit in the middle of context switching or in the middle of switch_mm_irqs_off(). In either case, CR3 might not match current->mm, which could cause copy_from_user_nmi() and friends to read the wrong memory.

Using only 32-bit writes for the pte will result in an intermediate L1TF vulnerable PTE. When running as a Xen PV guest this will at once switch the guest to shadow mode resulting in a loss of performance. Use arch_atomic64_xchg() instead which will perform the requested operation atomically with all 64 bits. Some performance considerations according to: https://software.intel.com/sites/default/files/managed/ad/dc/Intel-Xeon-Scalable-Processor-throughput-latency.pdf The main number should be the latency, as there is no tight loop around native_ptep_get_and_clear(). "lock cmpxchg8b" has a latency of 20 cycles, while "lock xchg" (with a memory operand) isn't mentioned in that document. "lock xadd" (with xadd having 3 cycles less latency than xchg) has a latency of 11, so we can assume a latency of 14 for "lock xchg". Signed-off-by:

On Nehalem and newer core CPUs the CPU cache internally uses 44 bits physical address space. The L1TF workaround is limited by this internal cache address width, and needs to have one bit free there for the mitigation to work. Older client systems report only 36bit physical address space so the range check decides that L1TF is not mitigated for a 36bit phys/32GB system with some memory holes. But since these actually have the larger internal cache width this warning is bogus because it would only really be needed if the system had more than 43bits of memory. Add a new internal x86_cache_bits field. Normally it is the same as the physical bits field reported by CPUID, but for Nehalem and newerforce it to be at least 44bits. Change the L1TF memory size warning to use the new cache_bits field to avoid bogus warnings and remove the bogus comment about memory size.

Two users have reported [1] that they have an "extremely unlikely" system with more than MAX_PA/2 memory and L1TF mitigation is not effective. In fact it's a CPU with 36bits phys limit (64GB) and 32GB memory, but due to holes in the e820 map, the main region is almost 500MB over the 32GB limit: [ 0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000000100000000-0x000000081effffff] usable Suggestions to use 'mem=32G' to enable the L1TF mitigation while losing the 500MB revealed, that there's an off-by-one error in the check in l1tf_select_mitigation(). l1tf_pfn_limit() returns the last usable pfn (inclusive) and the range check in the mitigation path does not take this into account. Instead of amending the range check, make l1tf_pfn_limit() return the first PFN which is over the limit which is less error prone. Adjust the other users accordingly.

An ordinary arm64 defconfig build has ~64 KB worth of __ksymtab entries, each consisting of two 64-bit fields containing absolute references, to the symbol itself and to a char array containing its name, respectively. When we build the same configuration with KASLR enabled, we end up with an additional ~192 KB of relocations in the .init section, i.e., one 24 byte entry for each absolute reference, which all need to be processed at boot time. Given how the struct kernel_symbol that describes each entry is completely local to module.c (except for the references emitted by EXPORT_SYMBOL() itself), we can easily modify it to contain two 32-bit relative references instead. This reduces the size of the __ksymtab section by 50% for all 64-bit architectures, and gets rid of the runtime relocations entirely for architectures implementing KASLR, either via standard PIE linking (arm64) or using custom host tools (x86). Note that the binary search involving __ksymtab contents relies on each section being sorted by symbol name. This is implemented based on the input section names, not the names in the ksymtab entries, so this patch does not interfere with that. Given that the use of place-relative relocations requires support both in the toolchain and in the module loader, we cannot enable this feature for all architectures. So make it dependent on whether CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_PREL32_RELOCATIONS is defined. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180704083651.24360-4-ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org Signed-off-by:

Hardware support for basic SGX virtualization adds a new execution control (ENCLS_EXITING), VMCS field (ENCLS_EXITING_BITMAP) and exit reason (ENCLS), that enables a VMM to intercept specific ENCLS leaf functions, e.g. to inject faults when the VMM isn't exposing SGX to a VM. When ENCLS_EXITING is enabled, the VMM can set/clear bits in the bitmap to intercept/allow ENCLS leaf functions in non-root, e.g. setting bit 2 in the ENCLS_EXITING_BITMAP will cause ENCLS[EINIT] to VMExit(ENCLS).

Currently memory_failure() returns zero if the error was handled. On that result mce_unmap_kpfn() is called to zap the page out of the kernel linear mapping to prevent speculative fetches of potentially poisoned memory. However, in the case of dax mapped devmap pages the page may be in active permanent use by the device driver, so it cannot be unmapped from the kernel. Instead of marking the page not present, marking the page UC should be sufficient for preventing poison from being pre-fetched into the cache. Convert mce_unmap_pfn() to set_mce_nospec() remapping the page as UC, to hide it from speculative accesses. Given that that persistent memory errors can be cleared by the driver, include a facility to restore the page to cacheable operation, clear_mce_nospec().

It turns out that we should *not* invert all not-present mappings, because the all zeroes case is obviously special. clear_page() does not undergo the XOR logic to invert the address bits, i.e. PTE, PMD and PUD entries that have not been individually written will have val=0 and so will trigger __pte_needs_invert(). As a result, {pte,pmd,pud}_pfn() will return the wrong PFN value, i.e. all ones (adjusted by the max PFN mask) instead of zero. A zeroed entry is ok because the page at physical address 0 is reserved early in boot specifically to mitigate L1TF, so explicitly exempt them from the inversion when reading the PFN. Manifested as an unexpected mprotect(..., PROT_NONE) failure when called on a VMA that has VM_PFNMAP and was mmap'd to as something other than PROT_NONE but never used. mprotect() sends the PROT_NONE request down prot_none_walk(), which walks the PTEs to check the PFNs. prot_none_pte_entry() gets the bogus PFN from pte_pfn() and returns -EACCES because it thinks mprotect() is trying to adjust a high MMIO address. [ This is a very modified version of Sean's original patch, but all credit goes to Sean for doing this and also pointing out that sometimes the __pte_needs_invert() function only gets the protection bits, not the full eventual pte. But zero remains special even in just protection bits, so that's ok. - Linus ] Fixes: f22cc87f ("x86/speculation/l1tf: Invert all not present mappings") Signed-off-by:

The kernel image is mapped into two places in the virtual address space (addresses without KASLR, of course): 1. The kernel direct map (0xffff880000000000) 2. The "high kernel map" (0xffffffff81000000) We actually execute out of #2. If we get the address of a kernel symbol, it points to #2, but almost all physical-to-virtual translations point to Parts of the "high kernel map" alias are mapped in the userspace page tables with the Global bit for performance reasons. The parts that we map to userspace do not (er, should not) have secrets. When PTI is enabled then the global bit is usually not set in the high mapping and just used to compensate for poor performance on systems which lack PCID. This is fine, except that some areas in the kernel image that are adjacent to the non-secret-containing areas are unused holes. We free these holes back into the normal page allocator and reuse them as normal kernel memory. The memory will, of course, get *used* via the normal map, but the alias mapping is kept. This otherwise unused alias mapping of the holes will, by default keep the Global bit, be mapped out to userspace, and be vulnerable to Meltdown. Remove the alias mapping of these pages entirely. This is likely to fracture the 2M page mapping the kernel image near these areas, but this should affect a minority of the area. The pageattr code changes *all* aliases mapping the physical pages that it operates on (by default). We only want to modify a single alias, so we need to tweak its behavior. This unmapping behavior is currently dependent on PTI being in place. Going forward, we should at least consider doing this for all configurations. Having an extra read-write alias for memory is not exactly ideal for debugging things like random memory corruption and this does undercut features like DEBUG_PAGEALLOC or future work like eXclusive Page Frame Ownership (XPFO).

Using hypercall to send IPIs by one vmexit instead of one by one for xAPIC/x2APIC physical mode and one vmexit per-cluster for x2APIC cluster mode. Intel guest can enter x2apic cluster mode when interrupt remmaping is enabled in qemu, however, latest AMD EPYC still just supports xapic mode which can get great improvement by Exit-less IPIs. This patchset lets a guest send multicast IPIs, with at most 128 destinations per hypercall in 64-bit mode and 64 vCPUs per hypercall in 32-bit mode.

Hyper-V supports a pv hypercall HvFlushGuestPhysicalAddressSpace to flush nested VM address space mapping in l1 hypervisor and it's to reduce overhead of flushing ept tlb among vcpus. This patch is to implement it. Signed-off-by:

It is a duplicate of X86_CR3_PCID_NOFLUSH. So just use that instead. Signed-off-by:

Adds support for storing multiple previous CR3/root_hpa pairs maintained as an LRU cache, so that the lockless CR3 switch path can be used when switching back to any of them. Signed-off-by:

This needs a minor bug fix. The updated patch is as follows. Thanks, Junaid ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ kvm_mmu_invlpg() and kvm_mmu_invpcid_gva() only need to flush the TLB entries for the specific guest virtual address, instead of flushing all TLB entries associated with the VM.

When PCIDs are enabled, the MSb of the source operand for a MOV-to-CR3 instruction indicates that the TLB doesn't need to be flushed. This change enables this optimization for MOV-to-CR3s in the guest that have been intercepted by KVM for shadow paging and are handled within the fast CR3 switch path. Signed-off-by:

When using shadow paging, a CR3 switch in the guest results in a VM Exit. In the common case, that VM exit doesn't require much processing by KVM. However, it does acquire the MMU lock, which can start showing signs of contention under some workloads even on a 2 VCPU VM when the guest is using KPTI. Therefore, we add a fast path that avoids acquiring the MMU lock in the most common cases e.g. when switching back and forth between the kernel and user mode CR3s used by KPTI with no guest page table changes in between. For now, this fast path is implemented only for 64-bit guests and hosts to avoid the handling of PDPTEs, but it can be extended later to 32-bit guests and/or hosts as well. Signed-off-by:
