commit 785a19f9d1dd8a4ab2d0633be4656653bd3de1fc upstream.
The following kernel panic was observed on ARM64 platform due to a stale
TLB entry.
1. ioremap with 4K size, a valid pte page table is set.
2. iounmap it, its pte entry is set to 0.
3. ioremap the same address with 2M size, update its pmd entry with
a new value.
4. CPU may hit an exception because the old pmd entry is still in TLB,
which leads to a kernel panic.
Commit b6bdb7517c3d ("mm/vmalloc: add interfaces to free unmapped page
table") has addressed this panic by falling to pte mappings in the above
case on ARM64.
To support pmd mappings in all cases, TLB purge needs to be performed
in this case on ARM64.
Add a new arg, 'addr', to pud_free_pmd_page() and pmd_free_pte_page()
so that TLB purge can be added later in seprate patches.

commit 8088d3dd4d7c6933a65aa169393b5d88d8065672 upstream.
scatterwalk_done() is only meant to be called after a nonzero number of
bytes have been processed, since scatterwalk_pagedone() will flush the
dcache of the *previous* page. But in the error case of
skcipher_walk_done(), e.g. if the input wasn't an integer number of
blocks, scatterwalk_done() was actually called after advancing 0 bytes.
This caused a crash ("BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request")
during '!PageSlab(page)' on architectures like arm and arm64 that define
ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE, provided that the input was
page-aligned as in that case walk->offset == 0.
Fix it by reorganizing skcipher_walk_done() to skip the
scatterwalk_advance() and scatterwalk_done() if an error has occurred.
This bug was found by syzkaller fuzzing.

commit bb29648102335586e9a66289a1d98a0cb392b6e5 upstream.
syzbot reported a crash in vmac_final() when multiple threads
concurrently use the same "vmac(aes)" transform through AF_ALG. The bug
is pretty fundamental: the VMAC template doesn't separate per-request
state from per-tfm (per-key) state like the other hash algorithms do,
but rather stores it all in the tfm context. That's wrong.
Also, vmac_final() incorrectly zeroes most of the state including the
derived keys and cached pseudorandom pad. Therefore, only the first
VMAC invocation with a given key calculates the correct digest.
Fix these bugs by splitting the per-tfm state from the per-request state
and using the proper init/update/final sequencing for requests.
Reproducer for the crash:
#include <linux/if_alg.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main()
{
int fd;
struct sockaddr_alg addr = {
.salg_type = "hash",
.salg_name = "vmac(aes)",
};
char buf[256] = { 0 };
fd = socket(AF_ALG, SOCK_SEQPACKET, 0);
bind(fd, (void *)&addr, sizeof(addr));
setsockopt(fd, SOL_ALG, ALG_SET_KEY, buf, 16);
fork();
fd = accept(fd, NULL, NULL);
for (;;)
write(fd, buf, 256);
}
The immediate cause of the crash is that vmac_ctx_t.partial_size exceeds
VMAC_NHBYTES, causing vmac_final() to memset() a negative length.

The VMAC template assumes the block cipher has a 128-bit block size, but
it failed to check for that. Thus it was possible to instantiate it
using a 64-bit block size cipher, e.g. "vmac(cast5)", causing
uninitialized memory to be used.
Add the needed check when instantiating the template.

The wait_event() function is used to detect command completion. The
interrupt handler will set the wait condition variable when the interrupt
is triggered. However, the variable used for wait_event() is initialized
after the command has been submitted, which can create a race condition
with the interrupt handler and result in the wait_event() never returning.
Move the initialization of the wait condition variable to just before
command submission.

At module unload, psp_dev_destroy() does not check if the pointer

ioremap() supports pmd mappings on x86-PAE. However, kernel's pmd
tables are not shared among processes on x86-PAE. Therefore, any
update to sync'd pmd entries need re-syncing. Freeing a pte page
also leads to a vmalloc fault and hits the BUG_ON in vmalloc_sync_one().
Disable free page handling on x86-PAE. pud_free_pmd_page() and
pmd_free_pte_page() simply return 0 if a given pud/pmd entry is present.
This assures that ioremap() does not update sync'd pmd entries at the
cost of falling back to pte mappings.

commit 405c018a25fe464dc68057bbc8014a58f2bd4422 upstream.
Commit d94a155c59c9 ("x86/cpu: Prevent cpuinfo_x86::x86_phys_bits
adjustment corruption") has moved the query and calculation of the
x86_virt_bits and x86_phys_bits fields of the cpuinfo_x86 struct
from the get_cpu_cap function to a new function named
get_cpu_address_sizes.
One of the call sites related to Xen PV VMs was unfortunately missed
in the aforementioned commit. This prevents successful boot-up of
kernel versions 4.17 and up in Xen PV VMs if CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL
is enabled, due to the following code path:
enlighten_pv.c::xen_start_kernel
mmu_pv.c::xen_reserve_special_pages
page.h::__pa
physaddr.c::__phys_addr
physaddr.h::phys_addr_valid
phys_addr_valid uses boot_cpu_data.x86_phys_bits to validate physical
addresses. boot_cpu_data.x86_phys_bits is no longer populated before
the call to xen_reserve_special_pages due to the aforementioned commit
though, so the validation performed by phys_addr_valid fails, which
causes __phys_addr to trigger a BUG, preventing boot-up.

commit eac7073aa69aa1cac819aa712146284f53f642b1 upstream.
The kernel image starts out with the Global bit set across the entire
kernel image. The bit is cleared with set_memory_nonglobal() in the
configurations with PCIDs where the performance benefits of the Global bit
are not needed.
However, this is fragile. It means that we are stuck opting *out* of the
less-secure (Global bit set) configuration, which seems backwards. Let's
start more secure (Global bit clear) and then let things opt back in if
they want performance, or are truly mapping common data between kernel and
userspace.
This fixes a bug. Before this patch, there are areas that are unmapped
from the user page tables (like like everything above 0xffffffff82600000 in
the example below). These have the hallmark of being a wrong Global area:
they are not identical in the 'current_kernel' and 'current_user' page
table dumps. They are also read-write, which means they're much more
likely to contain secrets.

Commit 1268ed0c474a ("x86/hyper-v: Fix the circular dependency in IPI
enlightenment") pre-filled hv_vp_index with VP_INVAL so it is now
(theoretically) possible to observe hv_cpu_number_to_vp_number()
returning VP_INVAL. We need to check for that in hyperv_flush_tlb_others().
Not checking for VP_INVAL on the first call site where we do
if (hv_cpu_number_to_vp_number(cpumask_last(cpus)) >= 64)
goto do_ex_hypercall;
is OK, in case we're eligible for non-ex hypercall we'll catch the
issue later in for_each_cpu() cycle and in case we'll be doing ex-
hypercall cpumask_to_vpset() will fail.
It would be nice to change hv_cpu_number_to_vp_number() return
value's type to 'u32' but this will likely be a bigger change as
all call sites need to be checked first.

Josh reported that the late SMT evaluation in cpu_smt_state_init() sets
cpu_smt_control to CPU_SMT_NOT_SUPPORTED in case that 'nosmt' was supplied
on the kernel command line as it cannot differentiate between SMT disabled
by BIOS and SMT soft disable via 'nosmt'. That wreckages the state and
makes the sysfs interface unusable.
Rework this so that during bringup of the non boot CPUs the availability of
SMT is determined in cpu_smt_allowed(). If a newly booted CPU is not a
'primary' thread then set the local cpu_smt_available marker and evaluate
this explicitely right after the initial SMP bringup has finished.
SMT evaulation on x86 is a trainwreck as the firmware has all the
information _before_ booting the kernel, but there is no interface to query
it.

It follows that these interrupts get accounted for in the

The subsequently executed vmx_l1d_flush() will thus be aware that some
interrupts have happened and conduct a L1d flush anyway.

commit 447ae316670230d7d29430e2cbf1f5db4f49d14c upstream.
The next patch in this series will have to make the definition of
irq_cpustat_t available to entering_irq().
Inclusion of asm/hardirq.h into asm/apic.h would cause circular header
dependencies like
asm/smp.h
asm/apic.h
asm/hardirq.h
linux/irq.h
linux/topology.h
linux/smp.h
asm/smp.h
or
linux/gfp.h
linux/mmzone.h
asm/mmzone.h
asm/mmzone_64.h
asm/smp.h
asm/apic.h
asm/hardirq.h
linux/irq.h
linux/irqdesc.h
linux/kobject.h
linux/sysfs.h
linux/kernfs.h
linux/idr.h
linux/gfp.h
and others.
This causes compilation errors because of the header guards becoming
effective in the second inclusion: symbols/macros that had been defined
before wouldn't be available to intermediate headers in the #include chain
anymore.
A possible workaround would be to move the definition of irq_cpustat_t
into its own header and include that from both, asm/hardirq.h and
asm/apic.h.
However, this wouldn't solve the real problem, namely asm/harirq.h
unnecessarily pulling in all the linux/irq.h cruft: nothing in
asm/hardirq.h itself requires it. Also, note that there are some other
archs, like e.g. arm64, which don't have that #include in their
asm/hardirq.h.
Remove the linux/irq.h #include from x86' asm/hardirq.h.
Fix resulting compilation errors by adding appropriate #includes to *.c
files as needed.
Note that some of these *.c files could be cleaned up a bit wrt. to their
set of #includes, but that should better be done from separate patches, if
at all.

commit 45b575c00d8e72d69d75dd8c112f044b7b01b069 upstream.
Part of the L1TF mitigation for vmx includes flushing the L1D cache upon
VMENTRY.
L1D flushes are costly and two modes of operations are provided to users:
"always" and the more selective "conditional" mode.
If operating in the latter, the cache would get flushed only if a host side
code path considered unconfined had been traversed. "Unconfined" in this
context means that it might have pulled in sensitive data like user data
or kernel crypto keys.
The need for L1D flushes is tracked by means of the per-vcpu flag
l1tf_flush_l1d. KVM exit handlers considered unconfined set it. A
vmx_l1d_flush() subsequently invoked before the next VMENTER will conduct a
L1d flush based on its value and reset that flag again.
Currently, interrupts delivered "normally" while in root operation between
VMEXIT and VMENTER are not taken into account. Part of the reason is that
these don't leave any traces and thus, the vmx code is unable to tell if
any such has happened.
As proposed by Paolo Bonzini, prepare for tracking all interrupts by
introducing a new per-cpu flag, "kvm_cpu_l1tf_flush_l1d". It will be in
strong analogy to the per-vcpu ->l1tf_flush_l1d.
A later patch will make interrupt handlers set it.
For the sake of cache locality, group kvm_cpu_l1tf_flush_l1d into x86'
per-cpu irq_cpustat_t as suggested by Peter Zijlstra.
Provide the helpers kvm_set_cpu_l1tf_flush_l1d(),
kvm_clear_cpu_l1tf_flush_l1d() and kvm_get_cpu_l1tf_flush_l1d(). Make them
trivial resp. non-existent for !CONFIG_KVM_INTEL as appropriate.
Let vmx_l1d_flush() handle kvm_cpu_l1tf_flush_l1d in the same way as
l1tf_flush_l1d.

This test is unncessary for the "always flush L1D" mode.
Move the check to vmx_l1d_flush()'s conditional mode code path.
Notes:
- vmx_l1d_flush() is likely to get inlined anyway and thus, there's no

The slow path in vmx_l1d_flush() reads from vmx_l1d_flush_pages in order
to evict the L1d cache.
However, these pages are never cleared and, in theory, their data could be
leaked.
More importantly, KSM could merge a nested hypervisor's vmx_l1d_flush_pages
to fewer than 1 << L1D_CACHE_ORDER host physical pages and this would break
the L1d flushing algorithm: L1D on x86_64 is tagged by physical addresses.
Fix this by initializing the individual vmx_l1d_flush_pages with a
different pattern each.
Rename the "empty_zp" asm constraint identifier in vmx_l1d_flush() to
"flush_pages" to reflect this change.

disabled.
full,force
Same as 'full', but disables SMT control. Implies the 'nosmt=force'
command line option. sysfs control of SMT and the hypervisor flush
control is disabled.
flush
Leaves SMT enabled and enables the conditional hypervisor mitigation.
Hypervisors will issue a warning when the first VM is started in a
potentially insecure configuration, i.e. SMT enabled or L1D flush
disabled.
flush,nosmt
Disables SMT and enables the conditional hypervisor mitigation. SMT
control via /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control is still possible
after boot. If SMT is reenabled or flushing disabled at runtime
hypervisors will issue a warning.
flush,nowarn
Same as 'flush', but hypervisors will not warn when
a VM is started in a potentially insecure configuration.
off
Disables hypervisor mitigations and doesn't emit any warnings.
Default is 'flush'.
Let KVM adhere to these semantics, which means:
- 'lt1f=full,force' : Performe L1D flushes. No runtime control
possible.
- 'l1tf=full'
- 'l1tf-flush'
- 'l1tf=flush,nosmt' : Perform L1D flushes and warn on VM start if
SMT has been runtime enabled or L1D flushing
has been run-time enabled
- 'l1tf=flush,nowarn' : Perform L1D flushes and no warnings are emitted.
- 'l1tf=off' : L1D flushes are not performed and no warnings
are emitted.
KVM can always override the L1D flushing behavior using its 'vmentry_l1d_flush'
module parameter except when lt1f=full,force is set.
This makes KVM's private 'nosmt' option redundant, and as it is a bit
non-systematic anyway (this is something to control globally, not on
hypervisor level), remove that option.
Add the missing Documentation entry for the l1tf vulnerability sysfs file
while at it.
