AMD does not have the requirement for a synchronization barrier when
acccessing a certain group of MSRs. Do not incur that unnecessary
penalty there.
There will be a CPUID bit which explicitly states that a MFENCE is not
needed. Once that bit is added to the APM, this will be extended with
it.
While at it, move to processor.h to avoid include hell. Untangling that
file properly is a matter for another day.
Some notes on the performance aspect of why this is relevant, courtesy
of Kishon VijayAbraham <Kishon.VijayAbraham@amd.com>:
On a AMD Zen4 system with 96 cores, a modified ipi-bench[1] on a VM
shows x2AVIC IPI rate is 3% to 4% lower than AVIC IPI rate. The
ipi-bench is modified so that the IPIs are sent between two vCPUs in the
same CCX. This also requires to pin the vCPU to a physical core to
prevent any latencies. This simulates the use case of pinning vCPUs to
the thread of a single CCX to avoid interrupt IPI latency.
In order to avoid run-to-run variance (for both x2AVIC and AVIC), the
below configurations are done:
1) Disable Power States in BIOS (to prevent the system from going to
lower power state)
2) Run the system at fixed frequency 2500MHz (to prevent the system
from increasing the frequency when the load is more)
With the above configuration:
*) Performance measured using ipi-bench for AVIC:
Average Latency: 1124.98ns [Time to send IPI from one vCPU to another vCPU]
Cumulative throughput: 42.6759M/s [Total number of IPIs sent in a second from
48 vCPUs simultaneously]
*) Performance measured using ipi-bench for x2AVIC:
Average Latency: 1172.42ns [Time to send IPI from one vCPU to another vCPU]
Cumulative throughput: 40.9432M/s [Total number of IPIs sent in a second from
48 vCPUs simultaneously]
From above, x2AVIC latency is ~4% more than AVIC. However, the expectation is
x2AVIC performance to be better or equivalent to AVIC. Upon analyzing
the perf captures, it is observed significant time is spent in
weak_wrmsr_fence() invoked by x2apic_send_IPI().
With the fix to skip weak_wrmsr_fence()
*) Performance measured using ipi-bench for x2AVIC:
Average Latency: 1117.44ns [Time to send IPI from one vCPU to another vCPU]
Cumulative throughput: 42.9608M/s [Total number of IPIs sent in a second from
48 vCPUs simultaneously]
Comparing the performance of x2AVIC with and without the fix, it can be seen
the performance improves by ~4%.
Performance captured using an unmodified ipi-bench using the 'mesh-ipi' option
with and without weak_wrmsr_fence() on a Zen4 system also showed significant
performance improvement without weak_wrmsr_fence(). The 'mesh-ipi' option ignores
CCX or CCD and just picks random vCPU.
Average throughput (10 iterations) with weak_wrmsr_fence(),
Cumulative throughput: 4933374 IPI/s
Average throughput (10 iterations) without weak_wrmsr_fence(),
Cumulative throughput: 6355156 IPI/s

- Limit the hardcoded topology quirk for Hygon CPUs to those which have a
model ID less than 4. The newer models have the topology CPUID leaf 0xB
correctly implemented and are not affected.
- Make SMT control more robust against enumeration failures
SMT control was added to allow controlling SMT at boottime or
runtime. The primary purpose was to provide a simple mechanism to
disable SMT in the light of speculation attack vectors.
It turned out that the code is sensible to enumeration failures and
worked only by chance for XEN/PV. XEN/PV has no real APIC enumeration
which means the primary thread mask is not set up correctly. By chance
a XEN/PV boot ends up with smp_num_siblings == 2, which makes the
hotplug control stay at its default value "enabled". So the mask is
never evaluated.
The ongoing rework of the topology evaluation caused XEN/PV to end up
with smp_num_siblings == 1, which sets the SMT control to "not
supported" and the empty primary thread mask causes the hotplug core to
deny the bringup of the APS.
Make the decision logic more robust and take 'not supported' and 'not
implemented' into account for the decision whether a CPU should be
booted or not.
- Fake primary thread mask for XEN/PV
Pretend that all XEN/PV vCPUs are primary threads, which makes the
usage of the primary thread mask valid on XEN/PV. That is consistent
with because all of the topology information on XEN/PV is fake or even
non-existent.
- Encapsulate topology information in cpuinfo_x86
Move the randomly scattered topology data into a separate data
structure for readability and as a preparatory step for the topology
evaluation overhaul.
- Consolidate APIC ID data type to u32
It's fixed width hardware data and not randomly u16, int, unsigned long
or whatever developers decided to use.
- Cure the abuse of cpuinfo for persisting logical IDs.
Per CPU cpuinfo is used to persist the logical package and die
IDs. That's really not the right place simply because cpuinfo is
subject to be reinitialized when a CPU goes through an offline/online
cycle.
Use separate per CPU data for the persisting to enable the further
topology management rework. It will be removed once the new topology
management is in place.
- Provide a debug interface for inspecting topology information
Useful in general and extremly helpful for validating the topology
management rework in terms of correctness or "bug" compatibility.

the per CPU topology information.
Move them into cpuinfo_x86::cpuinfo_topo and get rid of the extra per CPU
data and the related exports.

Booting with mitigations=off incorrectly prevents the
X86_FEATURE_{IBPB_BRTYPE,SBPB} CPUID bits from getting set.
Also, future CPUs without X86_BUG_SRSO might still have IBPB with branch
type prediction flushing, in which case SBPB should be used instead of
IBPB. The current code doesn't allow for that.
Also, cpu_has_ibpb_brtype_microcode() has some surprising side effects
and the setting of these feature bits really doesn't belong in the
mitigation code anyway. Move it to earlier.

Pull x86 shadow stack support from Dave Hansen:
"This is the long awaited x86 shadow stack support, part of Intel's
Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET).
CET consists of two related security features: shadow stacks and
indirect branch tracking. This series implements just the shadow stack
part of this feature, and just for userspace.
The main use case for shadow stack is providing protection against
return oriented programming attacks. It works by maintaining a
secondary (shadow) stack using a special memory type that has
protections against modification. When executing a CALL instruction,
the processor pushes the return address to both the normal stack and
to the special permission shadow stack. Upon RET, the processor pops
the shadow stack copy and compares it to the normal stack copy.
For more information, refer to the links below for the earlier
versions of this patch set"

Pull x86 apic updates from Dave Hansen:
"This includes a very thorough rework of the 'struct apic' handlers.
Quite a variety of them popped up over the years, especially in the
32-bit days when odd apics were much more in vogue.
The end result speaks for itself, which is a removal of a ton of code
and static calls to replace indirect calls.
If there's any breakage here, it's likely to be around the 32-bit
museum pieces that get light to no testing these days.
Summary:
- Rework apic callbacks, getting rid of unnecessary ones and
coalescing lots of silly duplicates.
- Use static_calls() instead of indirect calls for apic->foo()
- Tons of cleanups an crap removal along the way"

The only remaining consumer is new_inode, where it showed up in 2001 as
commit c37fa164f793 ("v2.4.9.9 -> v2.4.9.10") in a historical repo [1]
with a changelog which does not mention it.
Since then the line got only touched up to keep compiling.
While it may have been of benefit back in the day, it is guaranteed to
at best not get in the way in the multicore setting -- as the code
performs *a lot* of work between the prefetch and actual lock acquire,
any contention means the cacheline is already invalid by the time the
routine calls spin_lock(). It adds spurious traffic, for short.
On top of it prefetch is notoriously tricky to use for single-threaded
purposes, making it questionable from the get go.
As such, remove it.
I admit upfront I did not see value in benchmarking this change, but I
can do it if that is deemed appropriate.
Removal from new_inode and of the entire thing are in the same patch as
requested by Linus, so whatever weird looks can be directed at that guy.

Introduce basic shadow stack enabling/disabling/allocation routines.
A task's shadow stack is allocated from memory with VM_SHADOW_STACK flag
and has a fixed size of min(RLIMIT_STACK, 4GB).
Keep the task's shadow stack address and size in thread_struct. This will
be copied when cloning new threads, but needs to be cleared during exec,
so add a function to do this.
32 bit shadow stack is not expected to have many users and it will
complicate the signal implementation. So do not support IA32 emulation
or x32.

The newly added amd_check_microcode() function has two conflicting definitions
if CONFIG_CPU_SUP_AMD is enabled and CONFIG_MICROCODE_AMD is disabled. Since
the header with the stub definition is not included in cpu/amd.c, this only
causes a -Wmissing-prototype warning with W=1:
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/amd.c:1289:6: error: no previous prototype for 'amd_check_microcode' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
Adding the missing #include shows the other problem:

arch/x86/include/asm/microcode_amd.h:58:20: note: previous definition of 'amd_check_microcode' with type 'void(void)'
Move the declaration into a more appropriate header that is already
included, with the #ifdef check changed to match the definition's.

Add a mitigation for the speculative return address stack overflow
vulnerability found on AMD processors.
The mitigation works by ensuring all RET instructions speculate to
a controlled location, similar to how speculation is controlled in the
retpoline sequence. To accomplish this, the __x86_return_thunk forces
the CPU to mispredict every function return using a 'safe return'
sequence.
To ensure the safety of this mitigation, the kernel must ensure that the
safe return sequence is itself free from attacker interference. In Zen3
and Zen4, this is accomplished by creating a BTB alias between the
untraining function srso_untrain_ret_alias() and the safe return
function srso_safe_ret_alias() which results in evicting a potentially
poisoned BTB entry and using that safe one for all function returns.
In older Zen1 and Zen2, this is accomplished using a reinterpretation
technique similar to Retbleed one: srso_untrain_ret() and
srso_safe_ret().

In order to facilitate parallel startup, start to eliminate some of the
global variables passing information to CPUs in the startup path.
However, start by introducing one more: smpboot_control. For now this
merely holds the CPU# of the CPU which is coming up. Each CPU can then
find its own per-cpu data, and everything else it needs can be found
from there, allowing the other global variables to be removed.
First to be removed is initial_stack. Each CPU can load %rsp from its
current_task->thread.sp instead. That is already set up with the correct
idle thread for APs. Set up the .sp field in INIT_THREAD on x86 so that
the BSP also finds a suitable stack pointer in the static per-cpu data
when coming up on first boot.
On resume from S3, the CPU needs a temporary stack because its idle task
is already active. Instead of setting initial_stack, the sleep code can
simply set its own current->thread.sp to point to the temporary stack.
Nobody else cares about ->thread.sp for a thread which is currently on
a CPU, because the true value is actually in the %rsp register. Which
is restored with the rest of the CPU context in do_suspend_lowlevel().

and which proves for a gazillionth time that late loading is a bad bad
idea.
microcode_check() is called after an update to report any previously
cached CPUID bits which might have changed due to the update.
Therefore, store the cached CPU caps before the update and compare them
with the CPU caps after the microcode update has succeeded.
Thus, the comparison is done between the CPUID *hardware* bits before
and after the upgrade instead of using the cached, possibly runtime
modified values in BSP's boot_cpu_data copy.
As a result, false warnings about CPUID bits changes are avoided.

it patches a call accounting thunk which is used to track the call depth

The only place where switch_to_new_gdt() is required is early boot to
switch from the early GDT to the direct GDT. Any other invocation is
completely redundant because it does not change anything.
Secondary CPUs come out of the ASM code with GDT and GSBASE correctly set
up. The same is true for XEN_PV.
Remove all the voodoo invocations which are left overs from the ancient
past, rename the function to switch_gdt_and_percpu_base() and mark it init.

On 32bit FS and on 64bit GS segments are already set up correctly, but
load_percpu_segment() still sets [FG]S after switching from the early GDT
to the direct GDT.
For 32bit the segment load has no side effects, but on 64bit it causes
GSBASE to become 0, which means that any per CPU access before GSBASE is
set to the new value is going to fault. That's the reason why the whole
file containing this code has stackprotector removed.
But that's a pointless exercise for both 32 and 64 bit as the relevant
segment selector is already correct. Loading the new GDT does not change
that.
Remove the segment loads and add comments.

Currently, the PPIN (Protected Processor Inventory Number) MSR is read
by every CPU that processes a machine check, CMCI, or just polls machine
check banks from a periodic timer. This is not a "fast" MSR, so this

Currently when kvm_update_cpuid_runtime() runs, it assumes that the
KVM_CPUID_FEATURES leaf is located at 0x40000001. This is not true,
however, if Hyper-V support is enabled. In this case the KVM leaves will
be offset.
This patch introdues as new 'kvm_cpuid_base' field into struct
kvm_vcpu_arch to track the location of the KVM leaves and function
kvm_update_kvm_cpuid_base() (called from kvm_set_cpuid()) to locate the
leaves using the 'KVMKVMKVM\0\0\0' signature (which is now given a
definition in kvm_para.h). Adjustment of KVM_CPUID_FEATURES will hence now
target the correct leaf.
NOTE: A new for_each_possible_hypervisor_cpuid_base() macro is intoduced
into processor.h to avoid having duplicate code for the iteration
over possible hypervisor base leaves.

code evaluates.
- A large refactoring of the FPU code to prepare for adding AMX support:
- Distangle the public header maze and remove especially the misnomed
kitchen sink internal.h which is despite it's name included all over
the place.
- Add a proper abstraction for the register buffer storage (struct
fpstate) which allows to dynamically size the buffer at runtime by
flipping the pointer to the buffer container from the default
container which is embedded in task_struct::tread::fpu to a
dynamically allocated container with a larger register buffer.
- Convert the code over to the new fpstate mechanism.
- Consolidate the KVM FPU handling by moving the FPU related code into
the FPU core which removes the number of exports and avoids adding
even more export when AMX has to be supported in KVM. This also
removes duplicated code which was of course unnecessary different and
incomplete in the KVM copy.
- Simplify the KVM FPU buffer handling by utilizing the new fpstate
container and just switching the buffer pointer from the user space
buffer to the KVM guest buffer when entering vcpu_run() and flipping
it back when leaving the function. This cuts the memory requirements
of a vCPU for FPU buffers in half and avoids pointless memory copy
operations.
This also solves the so far unresolved problem of adding AMX support
because the current FPU buffer handling of KVM inflicted a circular
dependency between adding AMX support to the core and to KVM. With
the new scheme of switching fpstate AMX support can be added to the
core code without affecting KVM.
- Replace various variables with proper data structures so the extra
information required for adding dynamically enabled FPU features (AMX)
can be added in one place
- Add AMX (Advanved Matrix eXtensions) support (finally):
AMX is a large XSTATE component which is going to be available with
Saphire Rapids XEON CPUs. The feature comes with an extra MSR (MSR_XFD)
which allows to trap the (first) use of an AMX related instruction,
which has two benefits:
1) It allows the kernel to control access to the feature
2) It allows the kernel to dynamically allocate the large register
state buffer instead of burdening every task with the the extra 8K
or larger state storage.
It would have been great to gain this kind of control already with
AVX512.
The support comes with the following infrastructure components:
1) arch_prctl() to
- read the supported features (equivalent to XGETBV(0))
- read the permitted features for a task
- request permission for a dynamically enabled feature
Permission is granted per process, inherited on fork() and cleared
on exec(). The permission policy of the kernel is restricted to
sigaltstack size validation, but the syscall obviously allows
further restrictions via seccomp etc.
2) A stronger sigaltstack size validation for sys_sigaltstack(2) which
takes granted permissions and the potentially resulting larger
signal frame into account. This mechanism can also be used to
enforce factual sigaltstack validation independent of dynamic
features to help with finding potential victims of the 2K
sigaltstack size constant which is broken since AVX512 support was
added.
3) Exception handling for #NM traps to catch first use of a extended
feature via a new cause MSR. If the exception was caused by the use
of such a feature, the handler checks permission for that
feature. If permission has not been granted, the handler sends a
SIGILL like the #UD handler would do if the feature would have been
disabled in XCR0. If permission has been granted, then a new fpstate
which fits the larger buffer requirement is allocated.
In the unlikely case that this allocation fails, the handler sends
SIGSEGV to the task. That's not elegant, but unavoidable as the
other discussed options of preallocation or full per task
permissions come with their own set of horrors for kernel and/or
userspace. So this is the lesser of the evils and SIGSEGV caused by
unexpected memory allocation failures is not a fundamentally new
concept either.
When allocation succeeds, the fpstate properties are filled in to
reflect the extended feature set and the resulting sizes, the
fpu::fpstate pointer is updated accordingly and the trap is disarmed
for this task permanently.
4) Enumeration and size calculations
5) Trap switching via MSR_XFD
The XFD (eXtended Feature Disable) MSR is context switched with the
same life time rules as the FPU register state itself. The mechanism
is keyed off with a static key which is default disabled so !AMX
equipped CPUs have zero overhead. On AMX enabled CPUs the overhead
is limited by comparing the tasks XFD value with a per CPU shadow
variable to avoid redundant MSR writes. In case of switching from a
AMX using task to a non AMX using task or vice versa, the extra MSR
write is obviously inevitable.
All other places which need to be aware of the variable feature sets
and resulting variable sizes are not affected at all because they
retrieve the information (feature set, sizes) unconditonally from
the fpstate properties.
6) Enable the new AMX states
Note, this is relatively new code despite the fact that AMX support is in
the works for more than a year now.
The big refactoring of the FPU code, which allowed to do a proper
integration has been started exactly 3 weeks ago. Refactoring of the
existing FPU code and of the original AMX patches took a week and has
been subject to extensive review and testing. The only fallout which has
not been caught in review and testing right away was restricted to AMX
enabled systems, which is completely irrelevant for anyone outside Intel
and their early access program. There might be dragons lurking as usual,
but so far the fine grained refactoring has held up and eventual yet
undetected fallout is bisectable and should be easily addressable before
the 5.16 release. Famous last words...
Many thanks to Chang Bae and Dave Hansen for working hard on this and
also to the various test teams at Intel who reserved extra capacity to
follow the rapid development of this closely which provides the
confidence level required to offer this rather large update for inclusion
into 5.16-rc1.

DM&P devices were not being properly identified, which resulted in
unneeded Spectre/Meltdown mitigations being applied.
The manufacturer states that these devices execute always in-order and
don't support either speculative execution or branch prediction, so
they are not vulnerable to this class of attack. [1]
This is something I've personally tested by a simple timing analysis
on my Vortex86MX CPU, and can confirm it is true.
Add identification for some devices that lack the CPUID product name
call, so they appear properly on /proc/cpuinfo.
