Pull x86 kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"x86:

- KVM currently invalidates the entirety of the page tables, not just
those for the memslot being touched, when a memslot is moved or
deleted.

This does not traditionally have particularly noticeable overhead,
but Intel's TDX will require the guest to re-accept private pages
if they are dropped from the secure EPT, which is a non starter.

Actually, the only reason why this is not already being done is a
bug which was never fully investigated and caused VM instability
with assigned GeForce GPUs, so allow userspace to opt into the new
behavior.

- Advertise AVX10.1 to userspace (effectively prep work for the
"real" AVX10 functionality that is on the horizon)

- Rework common MSR handling code to suppress errors on userspace
accesses to unsupported-but-advertised MSRs

This will allow removing (almost?) all of KVM's exemptions for
userspace access to MSRs that shouldn't exist based on the vCPU
model (the actual cleanup is non-trivial future work)

- Rework KVM's handling of x2APIC ICR, again, because AMD (x2AVIC)
splits the 64-bit value into the legacy ICR and ICR2 storage,
whereas Intel (APICv) stores the entire 64-bit value at the ICR
offset

- Fix a bug where KVM would fail to exit to userspace if one was
triggered by a fastpath exit handler

- Add fastpath handling of HLT VM-Exit to expedite re-entering the
guest when there's already a pending wake event at the time of the
exit

- Fix a WARN caused by RSM entering a nested guest from SMM with
invalid guest state, by forcing the vCPU out of guest mode prior to
signalling SHUTDOWN (the SHUTDOWN hits the VM altogether, not the
nested guest)

- Overhaul the "unprotect and retry" logic to more precisely identify
cases where retrying is actually helpful, and to harden all retry
paths against putting the guest into an infinite retry loop

- Add support for yielding, e.g. to honor NEED_RESCHED, when zapping
rmaps in the shadow MMU

- Refactor pieces of the shadow MMU related to aging SPTEs in
prepartion for adding multi generation LRU support in KVM

- Don't stuff the RSB after VM-Exit when RETPOLINE=y and AutoIBRS is
enabled, i.e. when the CPU has already flushed the RSB

- Trace the per-CPU host save area as a VMCB pointer to improve
readability and cleanup the retrieval of the SEV-ES host save area

- Remove unnecessary accounting of temporary nested VMCB related
allocations

- Set FINAL/PAGE in the page fault error code for EPT violations if
and only if the GVA is valid. If the GVA is NOT valid, there is no
guest-side page table walk and so stuffing paging related metadata
is nonsensical

- Fix a bug where KVM would incorrectly synthesize a nested VM-Exit
instead of emulating posted interrupt delivery to L2

- Add a lockdep assertion to detect unsafe accesses of vmcs12
structures

- Harden eVMCS loading against an impossible NULL pointer deref
(really truly should be impossible)

- Minor SGX fix and a cleanup

- Misc cleanups

Generic:

- Register KVM's cpuhp and syscore callbacks when enabling
virtualization in hardware, as the sole purpose of said callbacks
is to disable and re-enable virtualization as needed

- Enable virtualization when KVM is loaded, not right before the
first VM is created

Together with the previous change, this simplifies a lot the logic
of the callbacks, because their very existence implies
virtualization is enabled

- Fix a bug that results in KVM prematurely exiting to userspace for
coalesced MMIO/PIO in many cases, clean up the related code, and
add a testcase

- Fix a bug in kvm_clear_guest() where it would trigger a buffer
overflow _if_ the gpa+len crosses a page boundary, which thankfully
is guaranteed to not happen in the current code base. Add WARNs in
more helpers that read/write guest memory to detect similar bugs

Selftests:

- Fix a goof that caused some Hyper-V tests to be skipped when run on
bare metal, i.e. NOT in a VM

- Add a regression test for KVM's handling of SHUTDOWN for an SEV-ES
guest

- Explicitly include one-off assets in .gitignore. Past Sean was
completely wrong about not being able to detect missing .gitignore
entries

- Verify userspace single-stepping works when KVM happens to handle a
VM-Exit in its fastpath

- Misc cleanups"

Merge branch 'kvm-memslot-zap-quirk' into HEAD

Today whenever a memslot is moved or deleted, KVM invalidates the entire
page tables and generates fresh ones based on the new memslot layout.

This behavior traditionally was kept because of a bug which was never
fully investigated and caused VM instability with assigned GeForce
GPUs. It generally does not have a huge overhead, because the old
MMU is able to reuse cached page tables and the new one is more
scalabale and can resolve EPT violations/nested page faults in parallel,
but it has worse performance if the guest frequently deletes and
adds small memslots, and it's entirely not viable for TDX. This is
because TDX requires re-accepting of private pages after page dropping.

For non-TDX VMs, this series therefore introduces the
KVM_X86_QUIRK_SLOT_ZAP_ALL quirk, enabling users to control the behavior
of memslot zapping when a memslot is moved/deleted. The quirk is turned
on by default, leading to the zapping of all SPTEs when a memslot is
moved/deleted; users however have the option to turn off the quirk,
which limits the zapping only to those SPTEs hat lie within the range
of memslot being moved/deleted.

KVM: nVMX: Honor userspace MSR filter lists for nested VM-Enter/VM-Exit

KVM: nVMX: Honor userspace MSR filter lists for nested VM-Enter/VM-Exit

Synthesize a consistency check VM-Exit (VM-Enter) or VM-Abort (VM-Exit) if
L1 attempts to load/store an MSR via the VMCS MSR lists that userspace has
disallowed access to via an MSR filter. Intel already disallows including
a handful of "special" MSRs in the VMCS lists, so denying access isn't
completely without precedent.

More importantly, the behavior is well-defined _and_ can be communicated
the end user, e.g. to the customer that owns a VM running as L1 on top of
KVM. On the other hand, ignoring userspace MSR filters is all but
guaranteed to result in unexpected behavior as the access will hit KVM's
internal state, which is likely not up-to-date.

Unlike KVM-internal accesses, instruction emulation, and dedicated VMCS
fields, the MSRs in the VMCS load/store lists are 100% guest controlled,
thus making it all but impossible to reason about the correctness of
ignoring the MSR filter. And if userspace *really* wants to deny access
to MSRs via the aforementioned scenarios, userspace can hide the
associated feature from the guest, e.g. by disabling the PMU to prevent
accessing PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL via its VMCS field. But for the MSR lists, KVM
is blindly processing MSRs; the MSR filters are the _only_ way for
userspace to deny access.

This partially reverts commit ac8d6cad3c7b ("KVM: x86: Only do MSR
filtering when access MSR by rdmsr/wrmsr").

KVM: x86/mmu: Introduce a quirk to control memslot zap behavior

KVM: x86/mmu: Introduce a quirk to control memslot zap behavior

Introduce the quirk KVM_X86_QUIRK_SLOT_ZAP_ALL to allow users to select
KVM's behavior when a memslot is moved or deleted for KVM_X86_DEFAULT_VM
VMs. Make sure KVM behave as if the quirk is always disabled for
non-KVM_X86_DEFAULT_VM VMs.

The KVM_X86_QUIRK_SLOT_ZAP_ALL quirk offers two behavior options:
- when enabled: Invalidate/zap all SPTEs ("zap-all"),
- when disabled: Precisely zap only the leaf SPTEs within the range of the
moving/deleting memory slot ("zap-slot-leafs-only").

"zap-all" is today's KVM behavior to work around a bug [1] where the
changing the zapping behavior of memslot move/deletion would cause VM
instability for VMs with an Nvidia GPU assigned; while
"zap-slot-leafs-only" allows for more precise zapping of SPTEs within the
memory slot range, improving performance in certain scenarios [2], and
meeting the functional requirements for TDX.

Previous attempts to select "zap-slot-leafs-only" include a per-VM
capability approach [3] (which was not preferred because the root cause of
the bug remained unidentified) and a per-memslot flag approach [4]. Sean
and Paolo finally recommended the implementation of this quirk and
explained that it's the least bad option [5].

By default, the quirk is enabled on KVM_X86_DEFAULT_VM VMs to use
"zap-all". Users have the option to disable the quirk to select
"zap-slot-leafs-only" for specific KVM_X86_DEFAULT_VM VMs that are
unaffected by this bug.

For non-KVM_X86_DEFAULT_VM VMs, the "zap-slot-leafs-only" behavior is
always selected without user's opt-in, regardless of if the user opts for
"zap-all".
This is because it is assumed until proven otherwise that non-
KVM_X86_DEFAULT_VM VMs will not be exposed to the bug [1], and most
importantly, it's because TDX must have "zap-slot-leafs-only" always
selected. In TDX's case a memslot's GPA range can be a mixture of "private"
or "shared" memory. Shared is roughly analogous to how EPT is handled for
normal VMs, but private GPAs need lots of special treatment:
1) "zap-all" would require to zap private root page or non-leaf entries or
at least leaf-entries beyond the deleting memslot scope. However, TDX
demands that the root page of the private page table remains unchanged,
with leaf entries being zapped before non-leaf entries, and any dropped
private guest pages must be re-accepted by the guest.
2) if "zap-all" zaps only shared page tables, it would result in private
pages still being mapped when the memslot is gone. This may affect even
other processes if later the gmem fd was whole punched, causing the
pages being freed on the host while still mapped in the TD, because
there's no pgoff to the gfn information to zap the private page table
after memslot is gone.

So, simply go "zap-slot-leafs-only" as if the quirk is always disabled for
non-KVM_X86_DEFAULT_VM VMs to avoid manual opt-in for every VM type [6] or
complicating quirk disabling interface (current quirk disabling interface
is limited, no way to query quirks, or force them to be disabled).

Add a new function kvm_mmu_zap_memslot_leafs() to implement
"zap-slot-leafs-only". This function does not call kvm_unmap_gfn_range(),
bypassing special handling to APIC_ACCESS_PAGE_PRIVATE_MEMSLOT, as
1) The APIC_ACCESS_PAGE_PRIVATE_MEMSLOT cannot be created by users, nor can
it be moved. It is only deleted by KVM when APICv is permanently
inhibited.
2) kvm_vcpu_reload_apic_access_page() effectively does nothing when
APIC_ACCESS_PAGE_PRIVATE_MEMSLOT is deleted.
3) Avoid making all cpus request of KVM_REQ_APIC_PAGE_RELOAD can save on
costly IPIs.

Hi,

For XIP kernel, the writable data section is always at offset specified in

Introducing Multi-Path DMA Support for mlx5 RDMA Driver

Introducing Multi-Path DMA Support for mlx5 RDMA Driver

From Yishai,

Overview
--------
This patch series aims to enable multi-path DMA support, allowing an
mlx5 RDMA device to issue DMA commands through multiple paths. This
feature is critical for improving performance and reaching line rate
in certain environments where issuing PCI transactions over one path
may be significantly faster than over another. These differences can
arise from various PCI generations in the system or the specific system
topology.

To achieve this functionality, we introduced a data direct DMA device
that can serve the RDMA device by issuing DMA transactions on its
behalf.

The main key features and changes are described below.

Multi-Path Discovery
--------------------
API Implementation:
* Introduced an API to discover multiple paths for a given mlx5 RDMA
device.
IOCTL Command:
* Added a new IOCTL command, MLX5_IB_METHOD_GET_DATA_DIRECT_SYSFS_PATH, to
the DEVICE object. When an affiliated Data-Direct/DMA device is present,
its sysfs path is returned.

Feature Activation by mlx5 RDMA Application
-------------------------------------------
UVERBS Extension:
* Extended UVERBS_METHOD_REG_DMABUF_MR over UVERBS_OBJECT_MR to include
mlx5 extended flags.
Access Flag:
* Introduced the MLX5_IB_UAPI_REG_DMABUF_ACCESS_DATA_DIRECT flag, allowing
applications to request the use of the affiliated DMA device for DMABUF
registration.

Data-Direct/DMA Device
----------------------
New Driver:
* Introduced a new driver to manage the new DMA PF device ID (0x2100).
Its registration/un-registration is handled as part of the mlx5_ib init/exit
flows, with mlx5 IB devices as its clients.
Functionality:
* The driver does not interface directly with the firmware (no command interface,
no caps, etc.) but works over PCI to activate its DMA functionality. It serves
as the DMA device for efficiently accessing other PCI devices (e.g., GPU PF) and
reads its VUID over PCI to handle NICs registrations with the same VUID.

mlx5 IB RDMA Device
---------------------------
VUID Query:
* Reads its affiliated DMA PF VUID via the QUERY_VUID command with the data_direct
bit set.
Driver Registration:
* Registers with the DMA PF driver to be notified upon bind/unbind.
Application Request Handling:
* Uses the DMA PF device upon application request as described above.

DMABUF over Umem
----------------
Introduced an option to obtain a DMABUF UMEM using a different DMA
device instead of the IB device, allowing the device to register over
IOMMU with the expected DMA device for a given buffer registration.

Further details are provided in the commit logs of the patches in this series.

the changes in this pull request.

The first has has undergone through a series of cleanups that
have been sent to the mailing list a year ago for the first time
and finally get merged in this pull request. They are many, from
typos (e.g. i2/i2c), to cosmetics, to refactoring (e.g. move
inline functions to librarieas) and many others.

Besides that, all the DesignWare Kconfig options have been
grouped under the I2C_DESIGNWARE_CORE and this required some
adaptation in many of the kernel configuration files for
different arm and mips boards.

Follows the list of the rest of the changes grouped by type of
change.

Cleanups
--------
The Qualcomm Geni platform improves the exit path in the runtime
resume function.

The Intel LJCA driver loses "target_addr" parameter in
ljca_i2c_stop() because it was unused.

The MediaTek controller intializes the restart_flag in the
transfer function using the ternary conditional operator ("? :")
instead of initializing it in different parts.

Constified a few global data structures in the virtio driver.

The Renesas driver simplifies the bus speed handling in the init
function making it more readable.

Improved an if/else statement in probe function of the Renesas
R-Car driver.

The iMX/MXC driver switches to using the RUNTIME_PM_OPS() instead
of SET_RUNTIME_PM_OPS().

Still in the iMX/MXC driver a comma ',' has been replaced by a
semicolon ';', while in different drivers the ',' has been
removed from the '{ }' delimiters.

Finally three devm_clk_get_enabled() have been used to simplify
the devm_clk_get/clk_prepare_enable tuple in the Renesas EMEV2,
Ingenic and MPC drivers.

Refactors
---------
The Nuvoton fixes a potential out of boundary array access. This
is not a bug fix because the issue could never occur due to
hardware not having the properties listed in the array. The
change makes the driver more future proof and, at the same time,
silences code analyzers.

Improvements
------------
The Renesas I2C (riic) driver undergoes several patches improving
the runtime power management handling.

The Intel i801 driver uses a more descriptive adapter's name to
show the presence of the IDF feature.

In the Intel Denverton (ismt) adapter the pending transactions
are killed when irq's can't complete their handling, triggering a
timeout. This could have been considered as a bug fix, but
because, standing to Vasily, it's very sporadic, I preferred
considering the patch rather as an improvement.

New Feature
-----------
The Renesas I2C (riic) driver now supports the fast mode plus.

New support
-----------
Added support for:

- Renesas R9A08G045
- Rockchip RK3576
- KEBA I2C
- Theobroma Systems Mule Multiplexer.

The Keba comes with a new driver, i2c-keba.c.
The Mule is an i2c multiplexer and it also comes with a new
driver, mux/i2c-mux-mule.c.

Core patch
----------
This pull request includes also a patch in the I2C framework, in
i2c-core-base.c where the runtime PM functions have been replaced
in order to allow to be accessed during the device add.

Devicetree
----------
Some cleanups in the devicetree, as well. nVidia and Qualcomm
bindings improve their "if:then:" blocks. While the aspeed
binding loses the "multi-master" property because it was
redundant.

The i2c-sprd binding has been converted to YAML.
