45 hoursx86/irqflags: Use ASM_OUTPUT_RM in native_save_fl()Eric Dumazet
clang is generating very inefficient code for native_save_fl() which is used for local_irq_save() in critical spots. Allowing the "pop %0" to use memory: 1) forces the compiler to add annoying stack canaries when CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG=y in many places. 2) Almost always is followed by an immediate "move memory,register" One good example is _raw_spin_lock_irqsave, with 8 extra instructions ffffffff82067a30 <_raw_spin_lock_irqsave>: ffffffff82067a30: ... ffffffff82067a39: 53 push %rbx // Three instructions to ajust the stack, read the per-cpu canary // and copy it to 8(%rsp) ffffffff82067a3a: 48 83 ec 10 sub $0x10,%rsp ffffffff82067a3e: 65 48 8b 05 da 15 45 02 mov %gs:0x24515da(%rip),%rax # <__stack_chk_guard> ffffffff82067a46: 48 89 44 24 08 mov %rax,0x8(%rsp) ffffffff82067a4b: 9c pushf // instead of pop %rbx, compiler uses 2 instructions. ffffffff82067a4c: 8f 04 24 pop (%rsp) ffffffff82067a4f: 48 8b 1c 24 mov (%rsp),%rbx ffffffff82067a53: fa cli ffffffff82067a54: b9 01 00 00 00 mov $0x1,%ecx ffffffff82067a59: 31 c0 xor %eax,%eax ffffffff82067a5b: f0 0f b1 0f lock cmpxchg %ecx,(%rdi) ffffffff82067a5f: 75 1d jne ffffffff82067a7e <_raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x4e> // three instructions to check the stack canary ffffffff82067a61: 65 48 8b 05 b7 15 45 02 mov %gs:0x24515b7(%rip),%rax # <__stack_chk_guard> ffffffff82067a69: 48 3b 44 24 08 cmp 0x8(%rsp),%rax ffffffff82067a6e: 75 17 jne ffffffff82067a87 ... // One extra instruction to adjust the stack. ffffffff82067a73: 48 83 c4 10 add $0x10,%rsp ... // One more instruction in case the stack was mangled. ffffffff82067a87: e8 a4 35 ff ff call ffffffff8205b030 <__stack_chk_fail> This patch changes nothing for gcc, but for clang saves ~20000 bytes of text even though more functions are inlined. $ size vmlinux.gcc.before vmlinux.gcc.after vmlinux.clang.before vmlinux.clang.after text data bss dec hex filename 45565821 25005462 4704800 75276083 47c9f33 vmlinux.gcc.before 45565821 25005462 4704800 75276083 47c9f33 vmlinux.gcc.after 45121072 24638617 5533040 75292729 47ce039 vmlinux.clang.before 45093887 24638633 5536808 75269328 47c84d0 vmlinux.clang.after $ scripts/bloat-o-meter -t vmlinux.clang.before vmlinux.clang.after add/remove: 1/2 grow/shrink: 21/533 up/down: 2250/-22112 (-19862) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Uros Bizjak <ubizjak@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

4 daysx86/bug: Fix old GCC compile failsPeter Zijlstra
For some mysterious reasons the GCC 8 and 9 preprocessor manages to sporadically fumble _ASM_BYTES(0x0f, 0x0b): $ grep ".byte[ ]*0x0f" defconfig-build/drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi/base.s 1: .byte0x0f,0x0b ; 1: .byte 0x0f,0x0b ; which makes the assembler upset and all that. While there are more _ASM_BYTES() users (notably the NOP instructions), those don't seem affected. Therefore replace the offending ASM_UD2 with one using the ud2 mnemonic.

5 daysx86/msi: Make irq_retrigger() functional for posted MSIThomas Gleixner
Luigi reported that retriggering a posted MSI interrupt does not work correctly. The reason is that the retrigger happens at the vector domain by sending an IPI to the actual vector on the target CPU. That works correctly exactly once because the posted MSI interrupt chip does not issue an EOI as that's only required for the posted MSI notification vector itself. As a consequence the vector becomes stale in the ISR, which not only affects this vector but also any lower priority vector in the affected APIC because the ISR bit is not cleared. Luigi proposed to set the vector in the remap PIR bitmap and raise the posted MSI notification vector. That works, but that still does not cure a related problem: If there is ever a stray interrupt on such a vector, then the related APIC ISR bit becomes stale due to the lack of EOI as described above. Unlikely to happen, but if it happens it's not debuggable at all. So instead of playing games with the PIR, this can be actually solved for both cases by: 1) Keeping track of the posted interrupt vector handler state 2) Implementing a posted MSI specific irq_ack() callback which checks that state. If the posted vector handler is inactive it issues an EOI, otherwise it delegates that to the posted handler. This is correct versus affinity changes and concurrent events on the posted vector as the actual handler invocation is serialized through the interrupt descriptor lock.

10 daysperf/x86/intel: Fix NULL event dereference crash in handle_pmi_common()Evan Li
handle_pmi_common() may observe an active bit set in cpuc->active_mask while the corresponding cpuc->events[] entry has already been cleared, which leads to a NULL pointer dereference. This can happen when interrupt throttling stops all events in a group while PEBS processing is still in progress. perf_event_overflow() can trigger perf_event_throttle_group(), which stops the group and clears the cpuc->events[] entry, but the active bit may still be set when handle_pmi_common() iterates over the events. The following recent fix: 7e772a93eb61 ("perf/x86: Fix NULL event access and potential PEBS record loss") moved the cpuc->events[] clearing from x86_pmu_stop() to x86_pmu_del() and relied on cpuc->active_mask/pebs_enabled checks. However, handle_pmi_common() can still encounter a NULL cpuc->events[] entry despite the active bit being set. Add an explicit NULL check on the event pointer before using it, to cover this legitimate scenario and avoid the NULL dereference crash.

13 daysx86/fpu: Fix FPU state core dump truncation on CPUs with no extended xfeaturesYongxin Liu
Zero can be a valid value of num_records. For example, on Intel Atom x6425RE, only x87 and SSE are supported (features 0, 1), and fpu_user_cfg.max_features is 3. The for_each_extended_xfeature() loop only iterates feature 2, which is not enabled, so num_records = 0. This is valid and should not cause core dump failure. The issue is that dump_xsave_layout_desc() returns 0 for both genuine errors (dump_emit() failure) and valid cases (no extended features). Use negative return values for errors and only abort on genuine failures.

13 daysx86/unwind/orc: Support reliable unwinding through BPF stack framesJosh Poimboeuf
BPF JIT programs and trampolines use a frame pointer, so the current ORC unwinder strategy of falling back to frame pointers (when an ORC entry is missing) usually works in practice when unwinding through BPF JIT stack frames. However, that frame pointer fallback is just a guess, so the unwind gets marked unreliable for live patching, which can cause livepatch transition stalls. Make the common case reliable by calling the bpf_has_frame_pointer() helper to detect the valid frame pointer region of BPF JIT programs and trampolines.

2025-12-08KVM: nVMX: Immediately refresh APICv controls as needed on nested VM-ExitDongli Zhang
If an APICv status updated was pended while L2 was active, immediately refresh vmcs01's controls instead of pending KVM_REQ_APICV_UPDATE as kvm_vcpu_update_apicv() only calls into vendor code if a change is necessary. E.g. if APICv is inhibited, and then activated while L2 is running: kvm_vcpu_update_apicv() | -> __kvm_vcpu_update_apicv() | -> apic->apicv_active = true | -> vmx_refresh_apicv_exec_ctrl() | -> vmx->nested.update_vmcs01_apicv_status = true | -> return Then L2 exits to L1: __nested_vmx_vmexit() | -> kvm_make_request(KVM_REQ_APICV_UPDATE) vcpu_enter_guest(): KVM_REQ_APICV_UPDATE -> kvm_vcpu_update_apicv() | -> __kvm_vcpu_update_apicv() | -> return // because if (apic->apicv_active == activate) Reported-by: Chao Gao <chao.gao@intel.com> Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/all/aQ2jmnN8wUYVEawF@intel.com Fixes: 7c69661e225c ("KVM: nVMX: Defer APICv updates while L2 is active until L1 is active") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Dongli Zhang <dongli.zhang@oracle.com> [sean: write changelog] Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20251205231913.441872-3-seanjc@google.com Signed-off-by: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>
2025-12-08KVM: VMX: Update SVI during runtime APICv activationDongli Zhang
The APICv (apic->apicv_active) can be activated or deactivated at runtime, for instance, because of APICv inhibit reasons. Intel VMX employs different mechanisms to virtualize LAPIC based on whether APICv is active. When APICv is activated at runtime, GUEST_INTR_STATUS is used to configure and report the current pending IRR and ISR states. Unless a specific vector is explicitly included in EOI_EXIT_BITMAP, its EOI will not be trapped to KVM. Intel VMX automatically clears the corresponding ISR bit based on the GUEST_INTR_STATUS.SVI field. When APICv is deactivated at runtime, the VM_ENTRY_INTR_INFO_FIELD is used to specify the next interrupt vector to invoke upon VM-entry. The VMX IDT_VECTORING_INFO_FIELD is used to report un-invoked vectors on VM-exit. EOIs are always trapped to KVM, so the software can manually clear pending ISR bits. There are scenarios where, with APICv activated at runtime, a guest-issued EOI may not be able to clear the pending ISR bit. Taking vector 236 as an example, here is one scenario. 1. Suppose APICv is inactive. Vector 236 is pending in the IRR. 2. To handle KVM_REQ_EVENT, KVM moves vector 236 from the IRR to the ISR, and configures the VM_ENTRY_INTR_INFO_FIELD via vmx_inject_irq(). 3. After VM-entry, vector 236 is invoked through the guest IDT. At this point, the data in VM_ENTRY_INTR_INFO_FIELD is no longer valid. The guest interrupt handler for vector 236 is invoked. 4. Suppose a VM exit occurs very early in the guest interrupt handler, before the EOI is issued. 5. Nothing is reported through the IDT_VECTORING_INFO_FIELD because vector 236 has already been invoked in the guest. 6. Now, suppose APICv is activated. Before the next VM-entry, KVM calls kvm_vcpu_update_apicv() to activate APICv. 7. Unfortunately, GUEST_INTR_STATUS.SVI is not configured, although vector 236 is still pending in the ISR. 8. After VM-entry, the guest finally issues the EOI for vector 236. However, because SVI is not configured, vector 236 is not cleared. 9. ISR is stalled forever on vector 236. Here is another scenario. 1. Suppose APICv is inactive. Vector 236 is pending in the IRR. 2. To handle KVM_REQ_EVENT, KVM moves vector 236 from the IRR to the ISR, and configures the VM_ENTRY_INTR_INFO_FIELD via vmx_inject_irq(). 3. VM-exit occurs immediately after the next VM-entry. The vector 236 is not invoked through the guest IDT. Instead, it is saved to the IDT_VECTORING_INFO_FIELD during the VM-exit. 4. KVM calls kvm_queue_interrupt() to re-queue the un-invoked vector 236 into vcpu->arch.interrupt. A KVM_REQ_EVENT is requested. 5. Now, suppose APICv is activated. Before the next VM-entry, KVM calls kvm_vcpu_update_apicv() to activate APICv. 6. Although APICv is now active, KVM still uses the legacy VM_ENTRY_INTR_INFO_FIELD to re-inject vector 236. GUEST_INTR_STATUS.SVI is not configured. 7. After the next VM-entry, vector 236 is invoked through the guest IDT. Finally, an EOI occurs. However, due to the lack of GUEST_INTR_STATUS.SVI configuration, vector 236 is not cleared from the ISR. 8. ISR is stalled forever on vector 236. Using QEMU as an example, vector 236 is stuck in ISR forever.

In addition, APICV_INHIBIT_REASON_IRQWIN ensures AMD SVM AVIC is not activated until the last interrupt is EOI'd. Fix the bug by configuring Intel VMX GUEST_INTR_STATUS.SVI if APICv is activated at runtime.

2025-12-05mshv: Cleanly shutdown root partition with MSHVPraveen K Paladugu
Root partitions running on MSHV currently attempt ACPI power-off, which MSHV intercepts and triggers a Machine Check Exception (MCE), leading to a kernel panic. Root partitions panic with a trace similar to: [ 81.306348] reboot: Power down [ 81.314709] mce: [Hardware Error]: CPU 0: Machine Check Exception: 4 Bank 0: b2000000c0060001 [ 81.314711] mce: [Hardware Error]: TSC 3b8cb60a66 PPIN 11d98332458e4ea9 [ 81.314713] mce: [Hardware Error]: PROCESSOR 0:606a6 TIME 1759339405 SOCKET 0 APIC 0 microcode ffffffff [ 81.314715] mce: [Hardware Error]: Run the above through 'mcelog --ascii' [ 81.314716] mce: [Hardware Error]: Machine check: Processor context corrupt [ 81.314717] Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal machine check To avoid this, configure the sleep state in the hypervisor and invoke the HVCALL_ENTER_SLEEP_STATE hypercall as the final step in the shutdown sequence.

2025-12-04KVM: nSVM: Set exit_code_hi to -1 when synthesizing SVM_EXIT_ERR (failed VMRUN)Sean Christopherson
Set exit_code_hi to -1u as a temporary band-aid to fix a long-standing (effectively since KVM's inception) bug where KVM treats the exit code as a 32-bit value, when in reality it's a 64-bit value. Per the APM, offset 0x70 is a single 64-bit value: 070h 63:0 EXITCODE And a sane reading of the error values defined in "Table C-1. SVM Intercept Codes" is that negative values use the full 64 bits: –1 VMEXIT_INVALID Invalid guest state in VMCB. –2 VMEXIT_BUSYBUSY bit was set in the VMSA –3 VMEXIT_IDLE_REQUIREDThe sibling thread is not in an idle state -4 VMEXIT_INVALID_PMC Invalid PMC state And that interpretation is confirmed by testing on Milan and Turin (by setting bits in CR0[63:32] to generate VMEXIT_INVALID on VMRUN). Furthermore, Xen has treated exitcode as a 64-bit value since HVM support was adding in 2006 (see Xen commit d1bd157fbc ("Big merge the HVM full-virtualisation abstractions.")).

It includes: - Add SHA-3 support to lib/crypto/, including support for both the hash functions and the extendable-output functions. Reimplement the existing SHA-3 crypto_shash support on top of the library. This is motivated mainly by the upcoming support for the ML-DSA signature algorithm, which needs the SHAKE128 and SHAKE256 functions. But even on its own it's a useful cleanup. This also fixes the longstanding issue where the architecture-optimized SHA-3 code was disabled by default. - Add BLAKE2b support to lib/crypto/, and reimplement the existing BLAKE2b crypto_shash support on top of the library. This is motivated mainly by btrfs, which supports BLAKE2b checksums. With this change, all btrfs checksum algorithms now have library APIs. btrfs is planned to start just using the library directly. This refactor also improves consistency between the BLAKE2b code and BLAKE2s code. And as usual, it also fixes the issue where the architecture-optimized BLAKE2b code was disabled by default. - Add POLYVAL support to lib/crypto/, replacing the existing POLYVAL support in crypto_shash. Reimplement HCTR2 on top of the library. This simplifies the code and improves HCTR2 performance. As usual, it also makes the architecture-optimized code be enabled by default.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull x86 CPU feature updates from Dave Hansen: "The biggest thing of note here is Linear Address Space Separation (LASS). It represents the first time I can think of that the upper=>kernel/lower=>user address space convention is actually recognized by the hardware on x86. It ensures that userspace can not even get the hardware to _start_ page walks for the kernel address space. This, of course, is a really nice generic side channel defense. This is really only a down payment on LASS support. There are still some details to work out in its interaction with EFI calls and vsyscall emulation. For now, LASS is disabled if either of those features is compiled in (which is almost always the case). There's also one straggler commit in here which converts an under-utilized AMD CPU feature leaf into a generic Linux-defined leaf so more feature can be packed in there.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull misc x86 updates from Dave Hansen: "The most significant are some changes to ensure that symbols exported for KVM are used only by KVM modules themselves, along with some related cleanups. In true x86/misc fashion, the other patch is completely unrelated and just enhances an existing pr_warn() to make it clear to users how they have tainted their kernel when something is mucking with MSRs.
