Problem:
When a kernel module is compiled as a separate module, some important
information about the kernel module is available via .modinfo section of
the module. In contrast, when the kernel module is compiled into the
kernel, that information is not available.
Information about built-in modules is necessary in the following cases:
1. When it is necessary to find out what additional parameters can be
passed to the kernel at boot time.
2. When you need to know which module names and their aliases are in
the kernel. This is very useful for creating an initrd image.
Proposal:
The proposed patch does not remove .modinfo section with module
information from the vmlinux at the build time and saves it into a
separate file after kernel linking. So, the kernel does not increase in
size and no additional information remains in it. Information is stored
in the same format as in the separate modules (null-terminated string
array). Because the .modinfo section is already exported with a separate
modules, we are not creating a new API.
It can be easily read in the userspace:

These files do not define (USBHS_)DRIVER_NAME. Yet, they can be
successfully compiled because they are never built as a module by
anyone, i.e, the MODULE_ALIAS() calls are always no-op.
A problem showed up when a patch "moduleparam: Save information about
built-in modules in separate file" was applied. With this new feature,
MODULE_*() will be populated even if the callers are built-in.
To avoid the build errors, the lines referencing to the undefined
macro must be removed.
The complete fix is to remove all MODULE_* and #include <linux/module.h>
like many "make ... explicitly non-modular" commits did.
For now, I am touching only the offending lines.

I thought this script was run via "make tags" etc. but some people
run it directly.
Prior to commit a9a49c2ad9b9 ("kbuild: use $(srctree) instead of
KBUILD_SRC to check out-of-tree build"), in such a usecase, "tree"
was set empty since KBUILD_SRC is undefined. Now, "tree" is set to
"${srctree}/", which is evaluated to "/".
Fix it by taking into account the case where "srctree" is unset.

recordmcount.pl uses a set of regular expressions to parse the output of
objdump(1). However, if objdump(1) output is localized, it may not match
the regular expressions, thereby preventing recordmcount.pl from parsing
object files correctly.
In order to allow recordmcount.pl to function correctly regardless of the
current locale settings, set LANG=C when running objdump(1). LC_ALL is
already unset in the top-level Makefile, so it is not necessary to also
override that environment variable.

Commit ea837f1c0503 ("kbuild: make modpost processing configurable")
was intended to give KBUILD_MODPOST_WARN flexibility to be configurable.
Right now KBUILD_MODPOST_WARN gets just ignored when KBUILD_EXTMOD is
set which happens per default when building modules out of the tree.
This change gives the opportunity to define module build behaving also
in case of out of tree builds and default will become exit on error.
Errors which can be detected by the build should be trapped out of the box
there, unless somebody wants to notice broken stuff later at runtime.
As this patch changes the default behaving from warning to error,
users can consider to fix it for external module builds by:
- providing module symbol table via KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS for
modules which are dependent
- OR getting old behaving back by passing KBUILD_MODPOST_WARN to the build

After cross-compiling the kernel, "make mrproper" should be executed
with the proper ARCH= option. Otherwise, stale objects will remain
under arch/$(SRCARCH)/.
One bad scenario is like this:
$ make ARCH=arm defconfig all # cross-compile the kernel for arm
$ make mrproper # mrproper for host-arch (i.e. x86)
$ make ARCH=arm O=build_dir defconfig all
If you miss ARCH= for mrproper and cross-compile the kernel with O=
and ARCH= options, Kbuild will happily start to build, but may fail
due to stale objects in the srctree.
If $(srctree)/arch/$(SRCARCH)/include/generated/ exists, let's stop
the out-of-tree build. To detect this, mrproper should clean only
arch/$(SRCARCH)/include/generated/.

KBUILD_SRC was conventionally used for some different purposes:
[1] To remember the source tree path
[2] As a flag to check if sub-make is already done
[3] As a flag to check if Kbuild runs out of tree
For [1], we do not need to remember it because the top Makefile
can compute it by $(realpath $(dir $(lastword $(MAKEFILE_LIST))))
[2] has been replaced with self-commenting 'sub_make_done'.
For [3], we can distinguish in-tree/out-of-tree by comparing
$(srctree) and '.'
This commit converts [3] to prepare for the KBUILD_SRC removal.

This hunk was added to avoid accidental overwrite of the top Makefile
in case O= points to the top of the source tree.
As commit 4f1127e20437 ("kbuild: fix infinite make recursion"),
it caused some troubles in the past because Kbuild assumes O=
as out-of-tree build, while it actually works in the source tree.
Now this works more properly; if O= points to the source directory,
it is handled as in-tree build. So, this sanity check is unneeded.

Kbuild always runs in the top of the output directory.
If Make starts in the source directory with O=, it relocates the
working directory to the location specified by O=.
Also, users can start build from the output directory by using the
Makefile generated by scripts/mkmakefile.
With a little more effort, Kbuild will be able to start from any
directory path.
This commit allows to specify the source directory by using
the -f option.
For example, you can do:
$ cd path/to/output/dir
$ make -f path/to/source/dir/Makefile
Or, for the equivalent behavior, you can do:
$ make O=path/to/output/dir -f path/to/source/dir/Makefile
KBUILD_SRC is now deprecated.

Manipulating $(MAKECMDGOALS) for sub-make seems odd to me.
[1] 'make O=foo sub-make' is turned into 'make O=foo', which builds
the default targets. It would make sense to terminate the build with:
*** No rule to make target 'sub-make'. Stop.
[2] 'make O=foo defconfig _all' is turned into 'make O=foo defconfig',
which changes the behavior.
Let's pass $(MAKECMDGOALS) as is.

When you run a "make *config" target, the retpoline compiler flags
are evaluated for nothing because the code is located above the
'ifeq ($(config-targets),1)'.
Move it a bit below to avoid unneeded computation in the Kconfig stage.

We rely on the mmu_notifier call backs to handle the split/merge
of huge pages and thus we are guaranteed that, while creating a
block mapping, either the entire block is unmapped at stage2 or it
is missing permission.
However, we miss a case where the block mapping is split for dirty
logging case and then could later be made block mapping, if we cancel the
dirty logging. This not only creates inconsistent TLB entries for
the pages in the the block, but also leakes the table pages for
PMD level.
Handle this corner case for the huge mappings at stage2 by
unmapping the non-huge mapping for the block. This could potentially
release the upper level table. So we need to restart the table walk
once we unmap the range.

commit 6794ad5443a2118 ("KVM: arm/arm64: Fix unintended stage 2 PMD mappings")
made the checks to skip huge mappings, stricter. However it introduced
a bug where we still use huge mappings, ignoring the flag to
use PTE mappings, by not reseting the vma_pagesize to PAGE_SIZE.
Also, the checks do not cover the PUD huge pages, that was
under review during the same period. This patch fixes both
the issues.

When halting a guest, QEMU flushes the virtual ITS caches, which
amounts to writing to the various tables that the guest has allocated.
When doing this, we fail to take the srcu lock, and the kernel
shouts loudly if running a lockdep kernel:

The normal interrupt flow is not to enable the vgic when no virtual
interrupt is to be injected (i.e. the LRs are empty). But when a guest
is likely to use GICv4 for LPIs, we absolutely need to switch it on
at all times. Otherwise, VLPIs only get delivered when there is something
in the LRs, which doesn't happen very often.

We've become very cautious to now always reset the vcpu when nothing
is loaded on the physical CPU. To do so, we now disable preemption
and do a kvm_arch_vcpu_put() to make sure we have all the state
in memory (and that it won't be loaded behind out back).
This now causes issues with resetting the PMU, which calls into perf.
Perf itself uses mutexes, which clashes with the lack of preemption.
It is worth realizing that the PMU is fully emulated, and that
no PMU state is ever loaded on the physical CPU. This means we can
perfectly reset the PMU outside of the non-preemptible section.

The series to add memcg accounting to KVM allocations[1] states:
There are many KVM kernel memory allocations which are tied to the
life of the VM process and should be charged to the VM process's
cgroup.
While it is correct to account KVM kernel allocations to the cgroup of
the process that created the VM, it's technically incorrect to state
that the KVM kernel memory allocations are tied to the life of the VM
process. This is because the VM itself, i.e. struct kvm, is not tied to
the life of the process which created it, rather it is tied to the life
of its associated file descriptor. In other words, kvm_destroy_vm() is
not invoked until fput() decrements its associated file's refcount to
zero. A simple example is to fork() in Qemu and have the child sleep
indefinitely; kvm_destroy_vm() isn't called until Qemu closes its file
descriptor *and* the rogue child is killed.
The allocations are guaranteed to be *accounted* to the process which
created the VM, but only because KVM's per-{VM,vCPU} ioctls reject the
ioctl() with -EIO if kvm->mm != current->mm. I.e. the child can keep
the VM "alive" but can't do anything useful with its reference.
Note that because 'struct kvm' also holds a reference to the mm_struct
of its owner, the above behavior also applies to userspace allocations.
Given that mucking with a VM's file descriptor can lead to subtle and
undesirable behavior, e.g. memcg charges persisting after a VM is shut
down, explicitly document a VM's lifecycle and its impact on the VM's
resources.
Alternatively, KVM could aggressively free resources when the creating
process exits, e.g. via mmu_notifier->release(). However, mmu_notifier
isn't guaranteed to be available, and freeing resources when the creator
exits is likely to be error prone and fragile as KVM would need to
ensure that it only freed resources that are truly out of reach. In
practice, the existing behavior shouldn't be problematic as a properly
configured system will prevent a child process from being moved out of
the appropriate cgroup hierarchy, i.e. prevent hiding the process from
the OOM killer, and will prevent an unprivileged user from being able to
to hold a reference to struct kvm via another method, e.g. debugfs.

Documentation/virtual/kvm/api.txt states:
NOTE: For KVM_EXIT_IO, KVM_EXIT_MMIO, KVM_EXIT_OSI, KVM_EXIT_PAPR and
KVM_EXIT_EPR the corresponding operations are complete (and guest
state is consistent) only after userspace has re-entered the
kernel with KVM_RUN. The kernel side will first finish incomplete
operations and then check for pending signals. Userspace can
re-enter the guest with an unmasked signal pending to complete
pending operations.
Because guest state may be inconsistent, starting state migration after
an IO exit without first completing IO may result in test failures, e.g.
a proposed change to KVM's handling of %rip in its fast PIO handling[1]
will cause the new VM, i.e. the post-migration VM, to have its %rip set
to the IN instruction that triggered KVM_EXIT_IO, leading to a test
assertion due to a stage mismatch.
For simplicitly, require KVM_CAP_IMMEDIATE_EXIT to complete IO and skip
the test if it's not available. The addition of KVM_CAP_IMMEDIATE_EXIT
predates the state selftest by more than a year.

Since 4.8.3, gcc has enabled -fstack-protector by default. This is
problematic for the KVM selftests as they do not configure fs or gs
segments (the stack canary is pulled from fs:0x28). With the default
behavior, gcc will insert a stack canary on any function that creates
buffers of 8 bytes or more. As a result, ucall() will hit a triple
fault shutdown due to reading a bad fs segment when inserting its
stack canary, i.e. every test fails with an unexpected SHUTDOWN.

KVM selftests embed the guest "image" as a function in the test itself
and extract the guest code at runtime by manually parsing the elf
headers. The parsing is very simple and doesn't supporting fancy things
like position independent executables. Recent versions of gcc enable
pie by default, which results in triple fault shutdowns in the guest due
to the virtual address in the headers not matching up with the virtual
address retrieved from the function pointer.

Most (all?) x86 platforms provide a port IO based reset mechanism, e.g.
OUT 92h or CF9h. Userspace may emulate said mechanism, i.e. reset a
vCPU in response to KVM_EXIT_IO, without explicitly announcing to KVM
that it is doing a reset, e.g. Qemu jams vCPU state and resumes running.
To avoid corruping %rip after such a reset, commit 0967b7bf1c22 ("KVM:
Skip pio instruction when it is emulated, not executed") changed the
behavior of PIO handlers, i.e. today's "fast" PIO handling to skip the
instruction prior to exiting to userspace. Full emulation doesn't need
such tricks becase re-emulating the instruction will naturally handle
%rip being changed to point at the reset vector.
Updating %rip prior to executing to userspace has several drawbacks:
- Userspace sees the wrong %rip on the exit, e.g. if PIO emulation
fails it will likely yell about the wrong address.
- Single step exits to userspace for are effectively dropped as
KVM_EXIT_DEBUG is overwritten with KVM_EXIT_IO.
- Behavior of PIO emulation is different depending on whether it
goes down the fast path or the slow path.
Rather than skip the PIO instruction before exiting to userspace,
snapshot the linear %rip and cancel PIO completion if the current
value does not match the snapshot. For a 64-bit vCPU, i.e. the most
common scenario, the snapshot and comparison has negligible overhead
as VMCS.GUEST_RIP will be cached regardless, i.e. there is no extra
VMREAD in this case.
All other alternatives to snapshotting the linear %rip that don't
rely on an explicit reset announcenment suffer from one corner case
or another. For example, canceling PIO completion on any write to
%rip fails if userspace does a save/restore of %rip, and attempting to
avoid that issue by canceling PIO only if %rip changed then fails if PIO
collides with the reset %rip. Attempting to zero in on the exact reset
vector won't work for APs, which means adding more hooks such as the
vCPU's MP_STATE, and so on and so forth.
Checking for a linear %rip match technically suffers from corner cases,
e.g. userspace could theoretically rewrite the underlying code page and
expect a different instruction to execute, or the guest hardcodes a PIO
reset at 0xfffffff0, but those are far, far outside of what can be
considered normal operation.

When userspace initializes guest vCPUs it may want to zero all supported
MSRs including Hyper-V related ones including HV_X64_MSR_STIMERn_CONFIG/
HV_X64_MSR_STIMERn_COUNT. With commit f3b138c5d89a ("kvm/x86: Update SynIC
timers on guest entry only") we began doing stimer_mark_pending()
unconditionally on every config change.
The issue I'm observing manifests itself as following:
- Qemu writes 0 to STIMERn_{CONFIG,COUNT} MSRs and marks all stimers as
pending in stimer_pending_bitmap, arms KVM_REQ_HV_STIMER;
- kvm_hv_has_stimer_pending() starts returning true;
- kvm_vcpu_has_events() starts returning true;
- kvm_arch_vcpu_runnable() starts returning true;
- when kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run() gets into
(vcpu->arch.mp_state == KVM_MP_STATE_UNINITIALIZED) case:
- kvm_vcpu_block() gets in 'kvm_vcpu_check_block(vcpu) < 0' and returns
immediately, avoiding normal wait path;
- -EAGAIN is returned from kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run() immediately forcing
userspace to retry.
So instead of normal wait path we get a busy loop on all secondary vCPUs
before they get INIT signal. This seems to be undesirable, especially given
that this happens even when Hyper-V extensions are not used.
Generally, it seems to be pointless to mark an stimer as pending in
stimer_pending_bitmap and arm KVM_REQ_HV_STIMER as the only thing
kvm_hv_process_stimers() will do is clear the corresponding bit. We may
just not mark disabled timers as pending instead.

The CPUID flag ARCH_CAPABILITIES is unconditioinally exposed to host
userspace for all x86 hosts, i.e. KVM advertises ARCH_CAPABILITIES
regardless of hardware support under the pretense that KVM fully
emulates MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES. Unfortunately, only VMX hosts
handle accesses to MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES (despite KVM_GET_MSRS
also reporting MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES for all hosts).
Move the MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES handling to common x86 code so
that it's emulated on AMD hosts.

Replace kvm_flush_remote_tlbs with kvm_flush_remote_tlbs_with_address
in slot_handle_level_range. When range based flushes are not enabled
kvm_flush_remote_tlbs_with_address falls back to kvm_flush_remote_tlbs.
This changes the behavior of many functions that indirectly use
slot_handle_level_range, iff the range based flushes are enabled. The
only potential problem I see with this is that kvm->tlbs_dirty will be
cleared less often, however the only caller of slot_handle_level_range that
checks tlbs_dirty is kvm_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start which
checks it and does a kvm_flush_remote_tlbs after calling
kvm_unmap_hva_range anyway.
Tested: Ran all kvm-unit-tests on a Intel Haswell machine with and
without this patch. The patch introduced no new failures.

I do not see any consistency about headers_install of <linux/kvm_para.h>
and <asm/kvm_para.h>.
According to my analysis of Linux 5.1-rc1, there are 3 groups:
[1] Both <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h> are exported
alpha, arm, hexagon, mips, powerpc, s390, sparc, x86
[2] <asm/kvm_para.h> is exported, but <linux/kvm_para.h> is not
arc, arm64, c6x, h8300, ia64, m68k, microblaze, nios2, openrisc,
parisc, sh, unicore32, xtensa
[3] Neither <linux/kvm_para.h> nor <asm/kvm_para.h> is exported
csky, nds32, riscv
This does not match to the actual KVM support. At least, [2] is
half-baked.
Nor do arch maintainers look like they care about this. For example,
commit 0add53713b1c ("microblaze: Add missing kvm_para.h to Kbuild")
exported <asm/kvm_para.h> to user-space in order to fix an in-kernel
build error.
We have two ways to make this consistent:
[A] export both <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h> for all
architectures, irrespective of the KVM support
[B] Match the header export of <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h>
to the KVM support
My first attempt was [A] because the code looks cleaner, but Paolo
suggested [B].
So, this commit goes with [B].
For most architectures, <asm/kvm_para.h> was moved to the kernel-space.
I changed include/uapi/linux/Kbuild so that it checks generated
asm/kvm_para.h as well as check-in ones.
After this commit, there will be two groups:
[1] Both <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h> are exported
arm, arm64, mips, powerpc, s390, x86
[2] Neither <linux/kvm_para.h> nor <asm/kvm_para.h> is exported

* nr_mmu_pages would be non-zero only if kvm->arch.n_requested_mmu_pages is
non-zero.
* nr_mmu_pages is always non-zero, since kvm_mmu_calculate_mmu_pages()
never return zero.
Based on these two reasons, we can merge the two *if* clause and use the
return value from kvm_mmu_calculate_mmu_pages() directly. This simplify
the code and also eliminate the possibility for reader to believe
nr_mmu_pages would be zero.

According to section "Checks on VMX Controls" in Intel SDM vol 3C, the
following check is performed on vmentry of L2 guests:
On processors that support Intel 64 architecture, the IA32_SYSENTER_ESP
field and the IA32_SYSENTER_EIP field must each contain a canonical
address.

Errata#1096:
On a nested data page fault when CR.SMAP=1 and the guest data read
generates a SMAP violation, GuestInstrBytes field of the VMCB on a
VMEXIT will incorrectly return 0h instead the correct guest
instruction bytes .
Recommend Workaround:
To determine what instruction the guest was executing the hypervisor
will have to decode the instruction at the instruction pointer.
The recommended workaround can not be implemented for the SEV
guest because guest memory is encrypted with the guest specific key,
and instruction decoder will not be able to decode the instruction
bytes. If we hit this errata in the SEV guest then log the message
and request a guest shutdown.

KVM's API requires thats ioctls must be issued from the same process
that created the VM. In other words, userspace can play games with a
VM's file descriptors, e.g. fork(), SCM_RIGHTS, etc..., but only the
creator can do anything useful. Explicitly reject device ioctls that
are issued by a process other than the VM's creator, and update KVM's
API documentation to extend its requirements to device ioctls.

Per Paolo[1], instantiating multiple VMs in a single process is legal;
but this conflicts with KVM's API documentation, which states:
The only supported use is one virtual machine per process, and one
vcpu per thread.
However, an earlier section in the documentation states:
Only run VM ioctls from the same process (address space) that was used
to create the VM.
and:
Only run vcpu ioctls from the same thread that was used to create the
vcpu.
This suggests that the conflicting documentation is simply an incorrect
ordering of of words, i.e. what's really meant is that a virtual machine
can't be shared across multiple processes and a vCPU can't be shared
across multiple threads.
Tweak the blurb on issuing ioctls to use a more assertive tone, and
rewrite the "supported use" sentence to reference said blurb instead of
poorly restating it in different terms.
Opportunistically add missing punctuation.

The cr4_pae flag is a bit of a misnomer, its purpose is really to track
whether the guest PTE that is being shadowed is a 4-byte entry or an
8-byte entry. Prior to supporting nested EPT, the size of the gpte was
reflected purely by CR4.PAE. KVM fudged things a bit for direct sptes,
but it was mostly harmless since the size of the gpte never mattered.
Now that a spte may be tracking an indirect EPT entry, relying on
CR4.PAE is wrong and ill-named.
For direct shadow pages, force the gpte_size to '1' as they are always
8-byte entries; EPT entries can only be 8-bytes and KVM always uses
8-byte entries for NPT and its identity map (when running with EPT but
not unrestricted guest).
Likewise, nested EPT entries are always 8-bytes. Nested EPT presents a
unique scenario as the size of the entries are not dictated by CR4.PAE,
but neither is the shadow page a direct map. To handle this scenario,
set cr0_wp=1 and smap_andnot_wp=1, an otherwise impossible combination,
to denote a nested EPT shadow page. Use the information to avoid
incorrectly zapping an unsync'd indirect page in __kvm_sync_page().
Providing a consistent and accurate gpte_size fixes a bug reported by
Vitaly where fast_cr3_switch() always fails when switching from L2 to
L1 as kvm_mmu_get_page() would force role.cr4_pae=0 for direct pages,
whereas kvm_calc_mmu_role_common() would set it according to CR4.PAE.
