drivers/xen: Improve the late XenStore init protocol
Currently, the late XenStore init protocol is only triggered properly
for the case that HVM_PARAM_STORE_PFN is ~0ULL (invalid). For the
case that XenStore interface is allocated but not ready (the connection
status is not XENSTORE_CONNECTED), Linux should also wait until the
XenStore is set up properly.
Introduce a macro to describe the XenStore interface is ready, use
it in xenbus_probe_initcall() to select the code path of doing the
late XenStore init protocol or not. Since now we have more than one
condition for XenStore late init, rework the check in xenbus_probe()
for the free_irq().
Take the opportunity to enhance the check of the allocated XenStore
interface can be properly mapped, and return error early if the
memremap() fails.

swiotlb: remove alloc_size argument to swiotlb_tbl_map_single()
Currently swiotlb_tbl_map_single() takes alloc_align_mask and alloc_size arguments to specify an swiotlb allocation that is larger than mapping_size. This larger allocation is used solely by iommu_dma_map_single() to handle untrusted devices that should not have DMA visibility to memory pages that are partially used for unrelated kernel data. Having two arguments to specify the allocation is redundant. While alloc_align_mask naturally specifies the alignment of the starting address of the allocation, it can also implicitly specify the size by rounding up the mapping_size to that alignment. Additionally, the current approach has an edge case bug. iommu_dma_map_page() already does the rounding up to compute the alloc_size argument. But swiotlb_tbl_map_single() then calculates the alignment offset based on the DMA min_align_mask, and adds that offset to alloc_size. If the offset is non-zero, the addition may result in a value that is larger than the max the swiotlb can allocate. If the rounding up is done _after_ the alignment offset is added to the mapping_size (and the original mapping_size conforms to the value returned by swiotlb_max_mapping_size), then the max that the swiotlb can allocate will not be exceeded. In view of these issues, simplify the swiotlb_tbl_map_single() interface by removing the alloc_size argument. Most call sites pass the same value for mapping_size and alloc_size, and they pass alloc_align_mask as zero. Just remove the redundant argument from these callers, as they will see no functional change. For iommu_dma_map_page() also remove the alloc_size argument, and have swiotlb_tbl_map_single() compute the alloc_size by rounding up mapping_size after adding the offset based on min_align_mask. This has the side effect of fixing the edge case bug but with no other functional change. Also add a sanity test on the alloc_align_mask. While IOMMU code currently ensures the granule is not larger than PAGE_SIZE, if that guarantee were to be removed in the future, the downstream effect on the swiotlb might go unnoticed until strange allocation failures occurred. Tested on an ARM64 system with 16K page size and some kernel test-only hackery to allow modifying the DMA min_align_mask and the granule size that becomes the alloc_align_mask. Tested these combinations with a variety of original memory addresses and sizes, including those that reproduce the edge case bug: * 4K granule and 0 min_align_mask * 4K granule and 0xFFF min_align_mask (4K - 1) * 16K granule and 0xFFF min_align_mask * 64K granule and 0xFFF min_align_mask * 64K granule and 0x3FFF min_align_mask (16K - 1) With the changes, all combinations pass.

xen/evtchn: avoid WARN() when unbinding an event channel
When unbinding a user event channel, the related handler might be
called a last time in case the kernel was built with
CONFIG_DEBUG_SHIRQ. This might cause a WARN() in the handler.
Avoid that by adding an "unbinding" flag to struct user_event which
will short circuit the handler.

x86/xen: attempt to inflate the memory balloon on PVH
When running as PVH or HVM Linux will use holes in the memory map as scratch space to map grants, foreign domain pages and possibly miscellaneous other stuff. However the usage of such memory map holes for Xen purposes can be problematic. The request of holesby Xen happen quite early in the kernel boot process (grant table setup already uses scratch map space), and it's possible that by then not all devices have reclaimed their MMIO space. It's not unlikely for chunks of Xen scratch map space to end up using PCI bridge MMIO window memory, which (as expected) causes quite a lot of issues in the system. At least for PVH dom0 we have the possibility of using regions marked as UNUSABLE in the e820 memory map. Either if the region is UNUSABLE in the native memory map, or it has been converted into UNUSABLE in order to hide RAM regions from dom0, the second stage translation page-tables can populate those areas without issues. PV already has this kind of logic, where the balloon driver is inflated at boot. Re-use the current logic in order to also inflate it when running as PVH. onvert UNUSABLE regions up to the ratio specified in EXTRA_MEM_RATIO to RAM, while reserving them using xen_add_extra_mem() (which is also moved so it's no longer tied to CONFIG_PV).

xen/grant-dma-iommu: Convert to platform remove callback returning void
The .remove() callback for a platform driver returns an int which makes many driver authors wrongly assume it's possible to do error handling by returning an error code. However the value returned is ignored (apart from emitting a warning) and this typically results in resource leaks. To improve here there is a quest to make the remove callback return void. In the first step of this quest all drivers are converted to .remove_new(), which already returns void. Eventually after all drivers are converted, .remove_new() will be renamed to .remove(). Trivially convert this driver from always returning zero in the remove callback to the void returning variant.

Support for x86 Fast Return and Event Delivery (FRED):
FRED is a replacement for IDT event delivery on x86 and addresses most of
the technical nightmares which IDT exposes:
1) Exception cause registers like CR2 need to be manually preserved in
nested exception scenarios.
2) Hardware interrupt stack switching is suboptimal for nested exceptions
as the interrupt stack mechanism rewinds the stack on each entry which
requires a massive effort in the low level entry of #NMI code to handle
this.
3) No hardware distinction between entry from kernel or from user which
makes establishing kernel context more complex than it needs to be
especially for unconditionally nestable exceptions like NMI.
4) NMI nesting caused by IRET unconditionally reenabling NMIs, which is a
problem when the perf NMI takes a fault when collecting a stack trace.
5) Partial restore of ESP when returning to a 16-bit segment
6) Limitation of the vector space which can cause vector exhaustion on
large systems.
7) Inability to differentiate NMI sources
FRED addresses these shortcomings by:
1) An extended exception stack frame which the CPU uses to save exception
cause registers. This ensures that the meta information for each
exception is preserved on stack and avoids the extra complexity of
preserving it in software.
2) Hardware interrupt stack switching is non-rewinding if a nested
exception uses the currently interrupt stack.
3) The entry points for kernel and user context are separate and GS BASE
handling which is required to establish kernel context for per CPU
variable access is done in hardware.
4) NMIs are now nesting protected. They are only reenabled on the return
from NMI.
5) FRED guarantees full restore of ESP
6) FRED does not put a limitation on the vector space by design because it
uses a central entry points for kernel and user space and the CPUstores
the entry type (exception, trap, interrupt, syscall) on the entry stack
along with the vector number. The entry code has to demultiplex this
information, but this removes the vector space restriction.
The first hardware implementations will still have the current
restricted vector space because lifting this limitation requires
further changes to the local APIC.
7) FRED stores the vector number and meta information on stack which
allows having more than one NMI vector in future hardware when the
required local APIC changes are in place.
The series implements the initial FRED support by:
- Reworking the existing entry and IDT handling infrastructure to
accomodate for the alternative entry mechanism.
- Expanding the stack frame to accomodate for the extra 16 bytes FRED
requires to store context and meta information
- Providing FRED specific C entry points for events which have information
pushed to the extended stack frame, e.g. #PF and #DB.
- Providing FRED specific C entry points for #NMI and #MCE
- Implementing the FRED specific ASM entry points and the C code to
demultiplex the events
- Providing detection and initialization mechanisms and the necessary
tweaks in context switching, GS BASE handling etc.
The FRED integration aims for maximum code reuse vs. the existing IDT
implementation to the extent possible and the deviation in hot paths like
context switching are handled with alternatives to minimalize the
impact. The low level entry and exit paths are seperate due to the extended
stack frame and the hardware based GS BASE swichting and therefore have no
impact on IDT based systems.
It has been extensively tested on existing systems and on the FRED
simulation and as of now there are know outstanding problems.

xen/events: close evtchn after mapping cleanup
shutdown_pirq and startup_pirq are not taking the
irq_mapping_update_lock because they can't due to lock inversion. Both
are called with the irq_desc->lock being taking. The lock order,
however, is first irq_mapping_update_lock and then irq_desc->lock.
This opens multiple races:
- shutdown_pirq can be interrupted by a function that allocates an event
channel:
CPU0 CPU1
shutdown_pirq {
xen_evtchn_close(e)
__startup_pirq {
EVTCHNOP_bind_pirq
-> returns just freed evtchn e
set_evtchn_to_irq(e, irq)
}
xen_irq_info_cleanup() {
set_evtchn_to_irq(e, -1)
}
}
Assume here event channel e refers here to the same event channel
number.
After this race the evtchn_to_irq mapping for e is invalid (-1).
- __startup_pirq races with __unbind_from_irq in a similar way. Because
__startup_pirq doesn't take irq_mapping_update_lock it can grab the
evtchn that __unbind_from_irq is currently freeing and cleaning up. In
this case even though the event channel is allocated, its mapping can
be unset in evtchn_to_irq.
The fix is to first cleanup the mappings and then close the event
channel. In this way, when an event channel gets allocated it's
potential previous evtchn_to_irq mappings are guaranteed to be unset already.
This is also the reverse order of the allocation where first the event
channel is allocated and then the mappings are setup.

Features:
- Add Jan Kara as VFS reviewer
- Show correct device and inode numbers in proc/<pid>/maps for vma
files on stacked filesystems. This is now easily doable thanks to
the backing file work from the last cycles. This comes with
selftests
Cleanups:
- Remove a redundant might_sleep() from wait_on_inode()
- Initialize pointer with NULL, not 0
- Clarify comment on access_override_creds()
- Rework and simplify eventfd_signal() and eventfd_signal_mask()
helpers
- Process aio completions in batches to avoid needless wakeups
- Completely decouple struct mnt_idmap from namespaces. We now only
keep the actual idmapping around and don't stash references to
namespaces
- Reformat maintainer entries to indicate that a given subsystem
belongs to fs/
- Simplify fput() for files that were never opened
- Get rid of various pointless file helpers
- Rename various file helpers
- Rename struct file members after SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU switch from
last cycle
- Make relatime_need_update() return bool
- Use GFP_KERNEL instead of GFP_USER when allocating superblocks
- Replace deprecated ida_simple_*() calls with their current ida_*()
counterparts
Fixes:
- Fix comments on user namespace id mapping helpers. They aren't
kernel doc comments so they shouldn't be using /**
- s/Retuns/Returns/g in various places
- Add missing parameter documentation on can_move_mount_beneath()
- Rename i_mapping->private_data to i_mapping->i_private_data
- Fix a false-positive lockdep warning in pipe_write() for watch
queues
- Improve __fget_files_rcu() code generation to improve performance
- Only notify writer that pipe resizing has finished after setting
pipe->max_usage otherwise writers are never notified that the pipe
has been resized and hang
- Fix some kernel docs in hfsplus
- s/passs/pass/g in various places
- Fix kernel docs in ntfs
- Fix kcalloc() arguments order reported by gcc 14

xen: privcmd: Replace zero-length array with flex-array member and use __counted_by
Fake flexible arrays (zero-length and one-element arrays) are deprecated, and should be replaced by flexible-array members. So, replace zero-length array with a flexible-array member in `struct privcmd_kernel_ioreq`. Also annotate array `ports` with `__counted_by()` to prepare for the coming implementation by GCC and Clang of the `__counted_by` attribute. Flexible array members annotated with `__counted_by` can have their accesses bounds-checked at run-time via `CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS` (for array indexing) and `CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE` (for strcpy/memcpy-family functions). This fixes multiple -Warray-bounds warnings: drivers/xen/privcmd.c:1239:30: warning: array subscript i is outside array bounds of 'struct ioreq_port[0]' [-Warray-bounds=] drivers/xen/privcmd.c:1240:30: warning: array subscript i is outside array bounds of 'struct ioreq_port[0]' [-Warray-bounds=] drivers/xen/privcmd.c:1241:30: warning: array subscript i is outside array bounds of 'struct ioreq_port[0]' [-Warray-bounds=] drivers/xen/privcmd.c:1245:33: warning: array subscript i is outside array bounds of 'struct ioreq_port[0]' [-Warray-bounds=] drivers/xen/privcmd.c:1258:67: warning: array subscript i is outside array bounds of 'struct ioreq_port[0]' [-Warray-bounds=] This results in no differences in binary output.

There's a bug that when using the XEN hypervisor with bios with large multi-page bio vectors on NVMe, the kernel deadlocks [1]. The deadlocks are caused by inability to map a large bio vector - dma_map_sgtable always returns an error, this gets propagated to the block layer as BLK_STS_RESOURCE and the block layer retries the request indefinitely. XEN uses the swiotlb framework to map discontiguous pages into contiguous runs that are submitted to the PCIe device. The swiotlb framework has a limitation on the length of a mapping - this needs to be announced with the max_mapping_size method to make sure that the hardware drivers do not create larger mappings. Without max_mapping_size, the NVMe block driver would create large mappings that overrun the maximum mapping size.

xen/events: drop xen_allocate_irqs_dynamic()
Instead of having a common function for allocating a single IRQ or a consecutive number of IRQs, split up the functionality into the callers of xen_allocate_irqs_dynamic(). This allows to handle any allocation error in xen_irq_init() gracefully instead of panicing the system. Let xen_irq_init() return the irq_info pointer or NULL in case of an allocation error. Additionally set the IRQ into irq_info already at allocation time, as otherwise the IRQ would be '0' (which is a valid IRQ number) until being set.

xen/events: fix delayed eoi list handling
When delaying eoi handling of events, the related elements are queued
into the percpu lateeoi list. In case the list isn't empty, the
elements should be sorted by the time when eoi handling is to happen.
Unfortunately a new element will never be queued at the start of the
list, even if it has a handling time lower than all other list
elements.
Fix that by handling that case the same way as for an empty list.

acpi/processor: sanitize _OSC/_PDC capabilities for Xen dom0
The Processor capability bits notify ACPI of the OS capabilities, and
so ACPI can adjust the return of other Processor methods taking the OS
capabilities into account.
When Linux is running as a Xen dom0, the hypervisor is the entity
in charge of processor power management, and hence Xen needs to make
sure the capabilities reported by _OSC/_PDC match the capabilities of
the driver in Xen.
Introduce a small helper to sanitize the buffer when running as Xen
dom0.
When Xen supports HWP, this serves as the equivalent of commit

xen/events: avoid using info_for_irq() in xen_send_IPI_one()
xen_send_IPI_one() is being used by cpuhp_report_idle_dead() after
it calls rcu_report_dead(), meaning that any RCU usage by
xen_send_IPI_one() is a bad idea.
Unfortunately xen_send_IPI_one() is using notify_remote_via_irq()
today, which is using irq_get_chip_data() via info_for_irq(). And
irq_get_chip_data() in turn is using a maple-tree lookup requiring
RCU.
Avoid this problem by caching the ipi event channels in another
percpu variable, allowing the use notify_remote_via_evtchn() in
xen_send_IPI_one().

sysctl-6.7-rc1
To help make the move of sysctls out of kernel/sysctl.c not incur a size
penalty sysctl has been changed to allow us to not require the sentinel, the
final empty element on the sysctl array. Joel Granados has been doing all this
work. On the v6.6 kernel we got the major infrastructure changes required to
support this. For v6.7-rc1 we have all arch/ and drivers/ modified to remove
the sentinel. Both arch and driver changes have been on linux-next for a bit
less than a month. It is worth re-iterating the value:
- this helps reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time
memory consumed by the kernel by about ~64 bytes per array
- the extra 64-byte penalty is no longer inncurred now when we move sysctls
out from kernel/sysctl.c to their own files
For v6.8-rc1 expect removal of all the sentinels and also then the unneeded
check for procname == NULL.
The last 2 patches are fixes recently merged by Krister Johansen which allow
us again to use softlockup_panic early on boot. This used to work but the
alias work broke it. This is useful for folks who want to detect softlockups
super early rather than wait and spend money on cloud solutions with nothing
but an eventual hung kernel. Although this hadn't gone through linux-next it's
also a stable fix, so we might as well roll through the fixes now.

xen-pciback: Consider INTx disabled when MSI/MSI-X is enabled
Linux enables MSI-X before disabling INTx, but keeps MSI-X masked until
the table is filled. Then it disables INTx just before clearing MASKALL
bit. Currently this approach is rejected by xen-pciback.
According to the PCIe spec, device cannot use INTx when MSI/MSI-X is
enabled (in other words: enabling MSI/MSI-X implicitly disables INTx).
Change the logic to consider INTx disabled if MSI/MSI-X is enabled. This
applies to three places:
- checking currently enabled interrupts type,
- transition to MSI/MSI-X - where INTx would be implicitly disabled,
- clearing INTx disable bit - which can be allowed even if MSI/MSI-X is
enabled, as device should consider INTx disabled anyway in that case

xen: privcmd: Add support for ioeventfd
Virtio guests send VIRTIO_MMIO_QUEUE_NOTIFY notification when they need
to notify the backend of an update to the status of the virtqueue. The
backend or another entity, polls the MMIO address for updates to know
when the notification is sent.
It works well if the backend does this polling by itself. But as we move
towards generic backend implementations, we end up implementing this in
a separate user-space program.
Generally, the Virtio backends are implemented to work with the Eventfd
based mechanism. In order to make such backends work with Xen, another
software layer needs to do the polling and send an event via eventfd to
the backend once the notification from guest is received. This results
in an extra context switch.
This is not a new problem in Linux though. It is present with other
hypervisors like KVM, etc. as well. The generic solution implemented in
the kernel for them is to provide an IOCTL call to pass the address to
poll and eventfd, which lets the kernel take care of polling and raise
an event on the eventfd, instead of handling this in user space (which
involves an extra context switch).
This patch adds similar support for xen.
Inspired by existing implementations for KVM, etc..
This also copies ioreq.h header file (only struct ioreq and related
macros) from Xen's source tree (Top commit 5d84f07fe6bf ("xen/pci: drop
remaining uses of bool_t")).

xen: evtchn: Allow shared registration of IRQ handers
Currently the handling of events is supported either in the kernel or userspace, but not both. In order to support fast delivery of interrupts from the guest to the backend, we need to handle the Queue notify part of Virtio protocol in kernel and the rest in userspace. Update the interrupt handler registration flag to IRQF_SHARED for event channels, which would allow multiple entities to bind their interrupt handler for the same event channel port. Also increment the reference count of irq_info when multiple entities try to bind event channel to irqchip, so the unbinding happens only after all the users are gone.

xen: Make struct privcmd_irqfd's layout architecture independent
Using indirect pointers in an ioctl command argument means that the
layout is architecture specific, in particular we can't use the same one
from 32-bit compat tasks. The general recommendation is to have __u64
members and use u64_to_user_ptr() to access it from the kernel if we are
unable to avoid the pointers altogether.

xen/xenbus: Add __counted_by for struct read_buffer and use struct_size()
Prepare for the coming implementation by GCC and Clang of the __counted_by attribute. Flexible array members annotated with __counted_by can have their accesses bounds-checked at run-time via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS (for array indexing) and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE (for strcpy/memcpy-family functions). While there, use struct_size() helper, instead of the open-coded version, to calculate the size for the allocation of the whole flexible structure, including of course, the flexible-array member. This code was found with the help of Coccinelle, and audited and fixed manually. Signed-off-by: Gustavo A. R.
