Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini: "On top of a lot of Arm fixes, this includes a massive rename of types and variables in tools/testing/selftests/kvm - these were unnecessarily different from what the kernel uses, so they're being made consistent.
arm64:
- Allow tracing for non-pKVM, which was accidentally disabled when the series was merged
- Rationalise the way the pKVM hypercall ranges are defined by using the same mechanism as already used for the vcpu_sysreg enum
- Enforce that SMCCC function numbers relayed by the pKVM proxy are actually compliant with the specification
- Fix a couple of feature to idreg mappings which resulted in the wrong sanitisation being applied
- Fix the GICD_IIDR revision number field that could never been written correctly by userspace
- Make kvm_vcpu_initialized() correctly use its parameter instead of relying on the surrounding context
- Enforce correct ordering in __pkvm_init_vcpu(), plugging a potential pin leak at the same time
- Move __pkvm_init_finalise() to a less dangerous spot, avoiding future problems
- Restore functional userspace irqchip support after a four year breakage (last functional kernel was 5.18...)
- Spelling fixes
Selftests:
- Rename types across all KVM selftests to more closely align with types used in the kernel:
vm_vaddr_t -> gva_t vm_paddr_t -> gpa_t
uint64_t -> u64 uint32_t -> u32 uint16_t -> u16 uint8_t -> u8
int64_t -> s64 int32_t -> s32 int16_t -> s16 int8_t -> s8
- Fix Loongarch compilation"

Merge tag 'kvm-x86-selftests_kernel_types-7.1' of https://github.com/kvm-x86/linux into HEAD
KVM selftests type renames for 7.1
Renames types across all KVM selftests to more closely align with types used in the kernel:
vm_vaddr_t -> gva_t vm_paddr_t -> gpa_t
uint64_t -> u64 uint32_t -> u32 uint16_t -> u16 uint8_t -> u8
int64_t -> s64 int32_t -> s32 int16_t -> s16 int8_t -> s8
Using the kernel's preferred types eliminates a source of friction for many contributors, as the majority of KVM selftests contributions come from kernel developers. The kernel names are also shorter, which allows for more concise code, and in any many cases eliminates newlines thanks to shorter types and parameter names.
Rename variables and parameters as well as types, e.g. gpa instead of paddr, to again align with the kernel, and in a few cases to remove ambiguity, e.g. where paddr is used to refer to a _host_ physical address.

Include <linux/types.h> in include/kvm_util_types.h, iinclude/test_util.h, and include/x86/pmu.h to pick up the tools-defined u64. Arguably, all headers (especially kvm_util_types.h) should have already been including stdint.h to get uint64_t from the libc headers, but the missing dependency only rears its head once KVM uses u64 instead of uint64_t.

Merge tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm
Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini: "Arm:
- Add support for tracing in the standalone EL2 hypervisor code, which should help both debugging and performance analysis. This uses the new infrastructure for 'remote' trace buffers that can be exposed by non-kernel entities such as firmware, and which came through the tracing tree
- Add support for GICv5 Per Processor Interrupts (PPIs), as the starting point for supporting the new GIC architecture in KVM
- Finally add support for pKVM protected guests, where pages are unmapped from the host as they are faulted into the guest and can be shared back from the guest using pKVM hypercalls. Protected guests are created using a new machine type identifier. As the elusive guestmem has not yet delivered on its promises, anonymous memory is also supported
This is only a first step towards full isolation from the host; for example, the CPU register state and DMA accesses are not yet isolated. Because this does not really yet bring fully what it promises, it is hidden behind CONFIG_ARM_PKVM_GUEST + 'kvm-arm.mode=protected', and also triggers TAINT_USER when a VM is created. Caveat emptor
- Rework the dreaded user_mem_abort() function to make it more maintainable, reducing the amount of state being exposed to the various helpers and rendering a substantial amount of state immutable
- Expand the Stage-2 page table dumper to support NV shadow page tables on a per-VM basis
- Tidy up the pKVM PSCI proxy code to be slightly less hard to follow
- Fix both SPE and TRBE in non-VHE configurations so that they do not generate spurious, out of context table walks that ultimately lead to very bad HW lockups
- A small set of patches fixing the Stage-2 MMU freeing in error cases
- Tighten-up accepted SMC immediate value to be only #0 for host SMCCC calls
- The usual cleanups and other selftest churn
LoongArch:
- Use CSR_CRMD_PLV for kvm_arch_vcpu_in_kernel()
- Add DMSINTC irqchip in kernel support
RISC-V:
- Fix steal time shared memory alignment checks
- Fix vector context allocation leak
- Fix array out-of-bounds in pmu_ctr_read() and pmu_fw_ctr_read_hi()
- Fix double-free of sdata in kvm_pmu_clear_snapshot_area()
- Fix integer overflow in kvm_pmu_validate_counter_mask()
- Fix shift-out-of-bounds in make_xfence_request()
- Fix lost write protection on huge pages during dirty logging
- Split huge pages during fault handling for dirty logging
- Skip CSR restore if VCPU is reloaded on the same core
- Implement kvm_arch_has_default_irqchip() for KVM selftests
- Factored-out ISA checks into separate sources
- Added hideleg to struct kvm_vcpu_config
- Factored-out VCPU config into separate sources
- Support configuration of per-VM HGATP mode from KVM user space
s390:
- Support for ESA (31-bit) guests inside nested hypervisors
- Remove restriction on memslot alignment, which is not needed anymore with the new gmap code
- Fix LPSW/E to update the bear (which of course is the breaking event address register)
x86:
- Shut up various UBSAN warnings on reading module parameter before they were initialized
- Don't zero-allocate page tables that are used for splitting hugepages in the TDP MMU, as KVM is guaranteed to set all SPTEs in the page table and thus write all bytes
- As an optimization, bail early when trying to unsync 4KiB mappings if the target gfn can just be mapped with a 2MiB hugepage
x86 generic:
- Copy single-chunk MMIO write values into struct kvm_vcpu (more precisely struct kvm_mmio_fragment) to fix use-after-free stack bugs where KVM would dereference stack pointer after an exit to userspace
- Clean up and comment the emulated MMIO code to try to make it easier to maintain (not necessarily "easy", but "easier")
- Move VMXON+VMXOFF and EFER.SVME toggling out of KVM (not *all* of VMX and SVM enabling) as it is needed for trusted I/O
- Advertise support for AVX512 Bit Matrix Multiply (BMM) instructions
- Immediately fail the build if a required #define is missing in one of KVM's headers that is included multiple times
- Reject SET_GUEST_DEBUG with -EBUSY if there's an already injected exception, mostly to prevent syzkaller from abusing the uAPI to trigger WARNs, but also because it can help prevent userspace from unintentionally crashing the VM
- Exempt SMM from CPUID faulting on Intel, as per the spec
- Misc hardening and cleanup changes
x86 (AMD):
- Fix and optimize IRQ window inhibit handling for AVIC; make it per-vCPU so that KVM doesn't prematurely re-enable AVIC if multiple vCPUs have to-be-injected IRQs
- Clean up and optimize the OSVW handling, avoiding a bug in which KVM would overwrite state when enabling virtualization on multiple CPUs in parallel. This should not be a problem because OSVW should usually be the same for all CPUs
- Drop a WARN in KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_REG_REGION where KVM complains about a "too large" size based purely on user input
- Clean up and harden the pinning code for KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_REG_REGION
- Disallow synchronizing a VMSA of an already-launched/encrypted vCPU, as doing so for an SNP guest will crash the host due to an RMP violation page fault
- Overhaul KVM's APIs for detecting SEV+ guests so that VM-scoped queries are required to hold kvm->lock, and enforce it by lockdep. Fix various bugs where sev_guest() was not ensured to be stable for the whole duration of a function or ioctl
- Convert a pile of kvm->lock SEV code to guard()
- Play nicer with userspace that does not enable KVM_CAP_EXCEPTION_PAYLOAD, for which KVM needs to set CR2 and DR6 as a response to ioctls such as KVM_GET_VCPU_EVENTS (even if the payload would end up in EXITINFO2 rather than CR2, for example). Only set CR2 and DR6 when consumption of the payload is imminent, but on the other hand force delivery of the payload in all paths where userspace retrieves CR2 or DR6
- Use vcpu->arch.cr2 when updating vmcb12's CR2 on nested #VMEXIT instead of vmcb02->save.cr2. The value is out of sync after a save/restore or after a #PF is injected into L2
- Fix a class of nSVM bugs where some fields written by the CPU are not synchronized from vmcb02 to cached vmcb12 after VMRUN, and so are not up-to-date when saved by KVM_GET_NESTED_STATE
- Fix a class of bugs where the ordering between KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE and KVM_SET_{S}REGS could cause vmcb02 to be incorrectly initialized after save+restore
- Add a variety of missing nSVM consistency checks
- Fix several bugs where KVM failed to correctly update VMCB fields on nested #VMEXIT
- Fix several bugs where KVM failed to correctly synthesize #UD or #GP for SVM-related instructions
- Add support for save+restore of virtualized LBRs (on SVM)
- Refactor various helpers and macros to improve clarity and (hopefully) make the code easier to maintain
- Aggressively sanitize fields when copying from vmcb12, to guard against unintentionally allowing L1 to utilize yet-to-be-defined features
- Fix several bugs where KVM botched rAX legality checks when emulating SVM instructions. There are remaining issues in that KVM doesn't handle size prefix overrides for 64-bit guests
- Fail emulation of VMRUN/VMLOAD/VMSAVE if mapping vmcb12 fails instead of somewhat arbitrarily synthesizing #GP (i.e. don't double down on AMD's architectural but sketchy behavior of generating #GP for "unsupported" addresses)
- Cache all used vmcb12 fields to further harden against TOCTOU bugs
x86 (Intel):
- Drop obsolete branch hint prefixes from the VMX instruction macros
- Use ASM_INPUT_RM() in __vmcs_writel() to coerce clang into using a register input when appropriate
- Code cleanups
guest_memfd:
- Don't mark guest_memfd folios as accessed, as guest_memfd doesn't support reclaim, the memory is unevictable, and there is no storage to write back to
LoongArch selftests:
- Add KVM PMU test cases
s390 selftests:
- Enable more memory selftests
x86 selftests:
- Add support for Hygon CPUs in KVM selftests
- Fix a bug in the MSR test where it would get false failures on AMD/Hygon CPUs with exactly one of RDPID or RDTSCP
- Add an MADV_COLLAPSE testcase for guest_memfd as a regression test for a bug where the kernel would attempt to collapse guest_memfd folios against KVM's will"

KVM: selftests: Add a flag to identify AMD compatible test cases
Most of KVM x86 selftests for AMD are compatible with Hygon architecture (but not all), add a flag "host_cpu_is_amd_compatible" to figure out these cases.
Following test failures on Hygon platform can be fixed:
* Fix hypercall test: Hygon architecture also uses VMMCALL as guest hypercall instruction.
* Following test failures due to access reserved memory address regions: - access_tracking_perf_test - demand_paging_test - dirty_log_perf_test - dirty_log_test - kvm_page_table_test - memslot_modification_stress_test - pre_fault_memory_test - x86/dirty_log_page_splitting_test
Hygon CSV also makes the "physical address space width reduction", the reduced physical address bits are reported by bits 11:6 of CPUID[0x8000001f].EBX as well, so the existed logic is totally applicable for Hygon processors. Mapping memory into these regions and accessing to them results in a #PF.

Merge branch 'for-6.15/amd_sfh' into for-linus
From: Mario Limonciello <mario.limonciello@amd.com>
Some platforms include a human presence detection (HPD) sensor. When enabled and a user is detected a wake event will be emitted from the sensor fusion hub that software can react to.
Example use cases are "wake from suspend on approach" or to "lock when leaving".
This is currently enabled by default on supported systems, but users can't control it. This essentially means that wake on approach is enabled which is a really surprising behavior to users that don't expect it.
Instead of defaulting to enabled add a sysfs knob that users can use to enable the feature if desirable and set it to disabled by default.

Along the way, refactor the code to make it easier to add features, and to make it more self-documenting how KVM is handling each feature
- Rework KVM's handling of VM-Exits during event vectoring; this plugs holes where KVM unintentionally puts the vCPU into infinite loops in some scenarios (e.g. if emulation is triggered by the exit), and brings parity between VMX and SVM
- Add pending request and interrupt injection information to the kvm_exit and kvm_entry tracepoints respectively
- Fix a relatively benign flaw where KVM would end up redoing RDPKRU when loading guest/host PKRU, due to a refactoring of the kernel helpers that didn't account for KVM's pre-checking of the need to do WRPKRU
- Make the completion of hypercalls go through the complete_hypercall function pointer argument, no matter if the hypercall exits to userspace or not.
Previously, the code assumed that KVM_HC_MAP_GPA_RANGE specifically went to userspace, and all the others did not; the new code need not special case KVM_HC_MAP_GPA_RANGE and in fact does not care at all whether there was an exit to userspace or not
- As part of enabling TDX virtual machines, support support separation of private/shared EPT into separate roots.
When TDX will be enabled, operations on private pages will need to go through the privileged TDX Module via SEAMCALLs; as a result, they are limited and relatively slow compared to reading a PTE.
The patches included in 6.14 allow KVM to keep a mirror of the private EPT in host memory, and define entries in kvm_x86_ops to operate on external page tables such as the TDX private EPT
- The recently introduced conversion of the NX-page reclamation kthread to vhost_task moved the task under the main process. The task is created as soon as KVM_CREATE_VM was invoked and this, of course, broke userspace that didn't expect to see any child task of the VM process until it started creating its own userspace threads.
In particular crosvm refuses to fork() if procfs shows any child task, so unbreak it by creating the task lazily. This is arguably a userspace bug, as there can be other kinds of legitimate worker tasks and they wouldn't impede fork(); but it's not like userspace has a way to distinguish kernel worker tasks right now. Should they show as "Kthread: 1" in proc/.../status?
x86 - Intel:
- Fix a bug where KVM updates hardware's APICv cache of the highest ISR bit while L2 is active, while ultimately results in a hardware-accelerated L1 EOI effectively being lost
- Honor event priority when emulating Posted Interrupt delivery during nested VM-Enter by queueing KVM_REQ_EVENT instead of immediately handling the interrupt
- Rework KVM's processing of the Page-Modification Logging buffer to reap entries in the same order they were created, i.e. to mark gfns dirty in the same order that hardware marked the page/PTE dirty
- Misc cleanups
Generic:
- Cleanup and harden kvm_set_memory_region(); add proper lockdep assertions when setting memory regions and add a dedicated API for setting KVM-internal memory regions. The API can then explicitly disallow all flags for KVM-internal memory regions
- Explicitly verify the target vCPU is online in kvm_get_vcpu() to fix a bug where KVM would return a pointer to a vCPU prior to it being fully online, and give kvm_for_each_vcpu() similar treatment to fix a similar flaw
- Wait for a vCPU to come online prior to executing a vCPU ioctl, to fix a bug where userspace could coerce KVM into handling the ioctl on a vCPU that isn't yet onlined
- Gracefully handle xarray insertion failures; even though such failures are impossible in practice after xa_reserve(), reserving an entry is always followed by xa_store() which does not know (or differentiate) whether there was an xa_reserve() before or not
RISC-V:
- Zabha, Svvptc, and Ziccrse extension support for guests. None of them require anything in KVM except for detecting them and marking them as supported; Zabha adds byte and halfword atomic operations, while the others are markers for specific operation of the TLB and of LL/SC instructions respectively
- Virtualize SBI system suspend extension for Guest/VM
- Support firmware counters which can be used by the guests to collect statistics about traps that occur in the host
Selftests:
- Rework vcpu_get_reg() to return a value instead of using an out-param, and update all affected arch code accordingly
- Convert the max_guest_memory_test into a more generic mmu_stress_test. The basic gist of the "conversion" is to have the test do mprotect() on guest memory while vCPUs are accessing said memory, e.g. to verify KVM and mmu_notifiers are working as intended
- Play nice with treewrite builds of unsupported architectures, e.g. arm (32-bit), as KVM selftests' Makefile doesn't do anything to ensure the target architecture is actually one KVM selftests supports
- Use the kernel's $(ARCH) definition instead of the target triple for arch specific directories, e.g. arm64 instead of aarch64, mainly so as not to be different from the rest of the kernel
- Ensure that format strings for logging statements are checked by the compiler even when the logging statement itself is disabled
- Attempt to whack the last LLC references/misses mole in the Intel PMU counters test by adding a data load and doing CLFLUSH{OPT} on the data instead of the code being executed. It seems that modern Intel CPUs have learned new code prefetching tricks that bypass the PMU counters
- Fix a flaw in the Intel PMU counters test where it asserts that events are counting correctly without actually knowing what the events count given the underlying hardware; this can happen if Intel reuses a formerly microarchitecture-specific event encoding as an architectural event, as was the case for Top-Down Slots"

KVM: selftests: Use canonical $(ARCH) paths for KVM selftests directories
Use the kernel's canonical $(ARCH) paths instead of the raw target triple for KVM selftests directories. KVM selftests are quite nearly the only place in the entire kernel that using the target triple for directories, tools/testing/selftests/drivers/s390x being the lone holdout.
Using the kernel's preferred nomenclature eliminates the minor, but annoying, friction of having to translate to KVM's selftests directories, e.g. for pattern matching, opening files, running selftests, etc.
Opportunsitically delete file comments that reference the full path of the file, as they are obviously prone to becoming stale, and serve no known purpose.
