arm64: mm: Remove pmd_sect() and pud_sect()
The semantics of pXd_leaf() are very similar to pXd_sect(). The only
difference is that pXd_sect() only considers it a section if PTE_VALID
is set, whereas pXd_leaf() permits both "valid" and "present-invalid"
types.
Using pXd_sect() has caused issues now that large leaf entries can be
present-invalid since commit a166563e7ec37 ("arm64: mm: support large
block mapping when rodata=full"), so let's just remove the API and
standardize on pXd_leaf().
There are a few callsites of the form pXd_leaf(READ_ONCE(*pXdp)). This
was previously fine for the pXd_sect() macro because it only evaluated
its argument once. But pXd_leaf() evaluates its argument multiple times.
So let's avoid unintended side effects by reimplementing pXd_leaf() as
an inline function.

arm64: mm: Handle invalid large leaf mappings correctly
It has been possible for a long time to mark ptes in the linear map as
invalid. This is done for secretmem, kfence, realm dma memory un/share,
and others, by simply clearing the PTE_VALID bit. But until commit a166563e7ec37 ("arm64: mm: support large block mapping when
rodata=full") large leaf mappings were never made invalid in this way.
It turns out various parts of the code base are not equipped to handle
invalid large leaf mappings (in the way they are currently encoded) and
I've observed a kernel panic while booting a realm guest on a
BBML2_NOABORT system as a result:
This panic occurs because the swiotlb memory was previously shared to
the host (__set_memory_enc_dec()), which involves transitioning the
(large) leaf mappings to invalid, sharing to the host, then marking the
mappings valid again. But pageattr_p[mu]d_entry() would only update the
entry if it is a section mapping, since otherwise it concluded it must
be a table entry so shouldn't be modified. But p[mu]d_sect() only
returns true if the entry is valid. So the result was that the large
leaf entry was made invalid in the first pass then ignored in the second
pass. It remains invalid until the above code tries to access it and
blows up.
The simple fix would be to update pageattr_pmd_entry() to use
!pmd_table() instead of pmd_sect(). That would solve this problem.
But the ptdump code also suffers from a similar issue. It checks
pmd_leaf() and doesn't call into the arch-specific note_page() machinery
if it returns false. As a result of this, ptdump wasn't even able to
show the invalid large leaf mappings; it looked like they were valid
which made this super fun to debug. the ptdump code is core-mm and
pmd_table() is arm64-specific so we can't use the same trick to solve
that.
But we already support the concept of "present-invalid" for user space
entries. And even better, pmd_leaf() will return true for a leaf mapping
that is marked present-invalid. So let's just use that encoding for
present-invalid kernel mappings too. Then we can use pmd_leaf() where we
previously used pmd_sect() and everything is magically fixed.
Additionally, from inspection kernel_page_present() was broken in a
similar way, so I'm also updating that to use pmd_leaf().
The transitional page tables component was also similarly broken; it
creates a copy of the kernel page tables, making RO leaf mappings RW in
the process. It also makes invalid (but-not-none) pte mappings valid.
But it was not doing this for large leaf mappings. This could have
resulted in crashes at kexec- or hibernate-time. This code is fixed to
flip "present-invalid" mappings back to "present-valid" at all levels.
Finally, I have hardened split_pmd()/split_pud() so that if it is passed
a "present-invalid" leaf, it will maintain that property in the split
leaves, since I wasn't able to convince myself that it would only ever
be called for "present-valid" leaves.

arm64: mm: Fix rodata=full block mapping support for realm guests
Commit a166563e7ec37 ("arm64: mm: support large block mapping when
rodata=full") enabled the linear map to be mapped by block/cont while
still allowing granular permission changes on BBML2_NOABORT systems by
lazily splitting the live mappings. This mechanism was intended to be
usable by realm guests since they need to dynamically share dma buffers
with the host by "decrypting" them - which for Arm CCA, means marking
them as shared in the page tables.
However, it turns out that the mechanism was failing for realm guests
because realms need to share their dma buffers (via
__set_memory_enc_dec()) much earlier during boot than
split_kernel_leaf_mapping() was able to handle. The report linked below
showed that GIC's ITS was one such user. But during the investigation I
found other callsites that could not meet the
split_kernel_leaf_mapping() constraints.
The problem is that we block map the linear map based on the boot CPU
supporting BBML2_NOABORT, then check that all the other CPUs support it
too when finalizing the caps. If they don't, then we stop_machine() and
split to ptes. For safety, split_kernel_leaf_mapping() previously
wouldn't permit splitting until after the caps were finalized. That
ensured that if any secondary cpus were running that didn't support
BBML2_NOABORT, we wouldn't risk breaking them.
I've fix this problem by reducing the black-out window where we refuse
to split; there are now 2 windows. The first is from T0 until the page
allocator is inititialized. Splitting allocates memory for the page
allocator so it must be in use. The second covers the period between
starting to online the secondary cpus until the system caps are
finalized (this is a very small window).
All of the problematic callers are calling __set_memory_enc_dec() before
the secondary cpus come online, so this solves the problem. However, one
of these callers, swiotlb_update_mem_attributes(), was trying to split
before the page allocator was initialized. So I have moved this call
from arch_mm_preinit() to mem_init(), which solves the ordering issue.
I've added warnings and return an error if any attempt is made to split
in the black-out windows.
Note there are other issues which prevent booting all the way to user
space, which will be fixed in subsequent patches.

- Provides a distinct warning message

This is a more refined version of the previous patch series fixing
and cleaning up the TSO code.
I'm not sure whether "TSO" or "GSO" should be used to describe this
feature - although it primarily handles TCP, dwmac4 appears to also
be able to handle UDP.
In essence, this series adds a .ndo_features_check() method to handle
whether TSO/GSO can be used for a particular skbuff - checking which
queue the skbuff is destined for and whether that has TBS available
which precludes TSO being enabled on that channel.
I'm also adding a check that the header is smaller than 1024 bytes,
as documented in those sources which have TSO support - this is due
to the hardware buffering the header in "TSO memory" which I guess
is limited to 1KiB. I expect this test never to trigger, but if
the headers ever exceed that size, the hardware will likely fail.
While IPv4 headers are unlikely to be anywhere near this, there is
nothing in the protocol which prevents IPv6 headers up to 64KiB.
As we now have a .ndo_features_check() method, I'm moving the VLAN
insertion for TSO packets into core code by unpublishing the VLAN
insertion features when we use TSO. Another move is for checksumming,
which is required for TSO, but stmmac's requirements for offloading
checksums are more strict - and this seems to be a bug in the TSO
path.
I've changed the hardware initialisation to always enable TSO support
on the channels even if the user requests TSO/GSO to be disabled -
this fixes another issue as pointed out by Jakub in a previous review.
I'm moving the setup of the GSO features, cleaning those up, and
adding a warning if platform glue requests this to be enabled but the
hardware has no support. Hopefully this will never trigger if everyone
got the STMMAC_FLAG_TSO_EN flag correct. Also adding a check for TxPBL
value.
Finally, moving the "TSO supported" message to the new
stmmac_set_gso_features() function so keep all this TSO stuff together.

Documentation states that TxPBL must be >= 4 to allow TSO support, but
the driver doesn't check this. TxPBL comes from the platform glue code
or DT. Add a check with a warning if platform glue code attempts to
enable TSO support with TxPBL too low.
net: stmmac: simplify GSO/TSO test in stmmac_xmit()
The test in stmmac_xmit() to see whether we should pass the skbuff to
stmmac_tso_xmit() is more complex than it needs to be. This test can
be simplified by storing the mask of GSO types that we will pass, and
setting it according to the enabled features.
Note that "tso" is a mis-nomer since commit b776620651a1 ("net:
stmmac: Implement UDP Segmentation Offload"). Also note that this
commit controls both via the TSO feature. We preserve this behaviour
in this commit.
Also, this commit unconditionally accessed skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_type
for all frames, even when skb_is_gso() was false. This access is
eliminated.
net: stmmac: move check for hardware checksum supported
Add a check in .ndo_features_check() to indicate whether hardware
checksum can be performed on the skbuff. Where hardware checksum is
not supported - either because the channel does not support Tx COE
or the skb isn't suitable (stmmac uses a tighter test than
can_checksum_protocol()) we also need to disable TSO, which will be
done by harmonize_features() in net/core/dev.c
This fixes a bug where a channel which has COE disabled may still
receive TSO skbuffs.
net: stmmac: move TSO VLAN tag insertion to core code
stmmac_tso_xmit() checks whether the skbuff is trying to offload
vlan tag insertion to hardware, which from the comment in the code
appears to be buggy when the TSO feature is used.
Rather than stmmac_tso_xmit() inserting the VLAN tag, handle this
in stmmac_features_check() which will then use core net code to
handle this. See net/core/dev.c::validate_xmit_skb()
net: stmmac: fix TSO support when some channels have TBS available
According to the STM32MP25xx manual, which is dwmac v5.3, TBS (time
based scheduling) is not permitted for channels which have hardware
TSO enabled. Intel's commit 5e6038b88a57 ("net: stmmac: fix TSO and
TBS feature enabling during driver open") concurs with this, but it
is incomplete.
This commit avoids enabling TSO support on the channels which have
TBS available, which, as far as the hardware is concerned, means we
do not set the TSE bit in the DMA channel's transmit control register.
However, the net device's features apply to all queues(channels), which
means these channels may still be handed TSO skbs to transmit, and the
driver will pass them to stmmac_tso_xmit(). This will generate the
descriptors for TSO, even though the channel has the TSE bit clear.
Fix this by checking whether the queue(channel) has TBS available,
and if it does, fall back to software GSO support.
netdev features documentation requires that .ndo_fix_features() is
stateless: it shouldn't modify driver state. Yet, stmmac_fix_features()
does exactly that, changing whether GSO frames are processed by the
driver.
Move this code to stmmac_set_features() instead, which is the correct
place for it. We don't need to check whether TSO is supported; this
is already handled via the setup of netdev->hw_features, and we are
guaranteed that if netdev->hw_features indicates that a feature is
not supported, .ndo_set_features() won't be called with it set.
Rather than configuring the channels depending on whether GSO/TSO is
currently enabled by the user, always enable if the hardware has TSO
support and the platform wants TSO to be enabled.
This avoids the channel TSO enable bit being disabled after a resume
when the user has disabled TSO features. This will cause problems when
the user re-enables TSO.
This bug goes back to commit f748be531d70 ("stmmac: support new GMAC4")

tracing: Allow backup to save persistent ring buffer before it starts
When the persistent ring buffer was first introduced, it did not make
sense to start tracing for it on the kernel command line. That's because
if there was a crash, the start of events would invalidate the events from
the previous boot that had the crash.
But now that there's a "backup" instance that can take a snapshot of the
persistent ring buffer when boot starts, it is possible to have the
persistent ring buffer start events at boot up and not lose the old events.
Update the code where the boot events start after all boot time instances
are created. This will allow the backup instance to copy the persistent
ring buffer from the previous boot, and allow the persistent ring buffer
to start tracing new events for the current boot.
The above will create a boot_mapped persistent ring buffer and enabled the
scheduler events. If there's a crash, a "backup" instance will be created
holding the events of the persistent ring buffer from the previous boot,
while the persistent ring buffer will once again start tracing scheduler
events of the current boot.
Now the user doesn't have to remember to start the persistent ring buffer.
It will always have the events started at each boot.

Use max() to simplify brcmstb_get_temp() and improve its readability.
Since avs_tmon_code_to_temp() returns an int, change the data type of
the local variable 't' from long to int. No functional changes.
tracing: Remove the backup instance automatically after read
Since the backup instance is readonly, after reading all data via pipe, no
data is left on the instance. Thus it can be removed safely after closing
all files. This also removes it if user resets the ring buffer manually
via 'trace' file.
Since there is no reason to reuse the backup instance, make it readonly
(but erasable). Note that only backup instances are readonly, because
other trace instances will be empty unless it is writable. Only backup
instances have copy entries from the original.
With this change, most of the trace control files are removed from the
backup instance, including eventfs enable/filter etc.
ring-buffer: Enforce read ordering of trace_buffer cpumask and buffers
On CPU hotplug, if it is the first time a trace_buffer sees a CPU, a
ring_buffer_per_cpu will be allocated and its corresponding bit toggled
in the cpumask. Many readers check this cpumask to know if they can
safely read the ring_buffer_per_cpu but they are doing so without memory
ordering and may observe the cpumask bit set while having NULL buffer
pointer.
Enforce the memory read ordering by sending an IPI to all online CPUs.
The hotplug path is a slow-path anyway and it saves us from adding read
barriers in numerous call sites.

selftests/bpf: Add more precision tracking tests for atomics
Add verifier precision tracking tests for BPF atomic fetch operations.
Validate that backtrack_insn correctly propagates precision from the
fetch dst_reg to the stack slot for {fetch_add,xchg,cmpxchg} atomics.
For the first two src_reg gets the old memory value, and for the last
one r0. The fetched register is used for pointer arithmetic to trigger
backtracking. Also add coverage for fetch_{or,and,xor} flavors which
exercises the bitwise atomic fetch variants going through the same
insn->imm & BPF_FETCH check but with different imm values.
Add dual-precision regression tests for fetch_add and cmpxchg where
both the fetched value and a reread of the same stack slot are tracked
for precision. After the atomic operation, the stack slot is STACK_MISC,
so the ldx does not set INSN_F_STACK_ACCESS. These tests verify that
stack precision propagates solely through the atomic fetch's load side.
Add map-based tests for fetch_add and cmpxchg which validate that non-
stack atomic fetch completes precision tracking without falling back
to mark_all_scalars_precise. Lastly, add 32-bit variants for {fetch_add,
cmpxchg} on map values to cover the second valid atomic operand size.

bpf: Fix incorrect pruning due to atomic fetch precision tracking
When backtrack_insn encounters a BPF_STX instruction with BPF_ATOMIC
and BPF_FETCH, the src register (or r0 for BPF_CMPXCHG) also acts as
a destination, thus receiving the old value from the memory location.
The current backtracking logic does not account for this. It treats
atomic fetch operations the same as regular stores where the src
register is only an input. This leads the backtrack_insn to fail to
propagate precision to the stack location, which is then not marked
as precise!
Later, the verifier's path pruning can incorrectly consider two states
equivalent when they differ in terms of stack state. Meaning, two
branches can be treated as equivalent and thus get pruned when they
should not be seen as such.
Fix it as follows: Extend the BPF_LDX handling in backtrack_insn to
also cover atomic fetch operations via is_atomic_fetch_insn() helper.
When the fetch dst register is being tracked for precision, clear it,
and propagate precision over to the stack slot. For non-stack memory,
the precision walk stops at the atomic instruction, same as regular
BPF_LDX. This covers all fetch variants.

Sleepable BPF programs hold rcu_read_lock_trace but not

v1 -> v2:
* Drop patch #1 in v1, as it wasn't an issue (per Toke).
* Check kprobe_write_ctx value at attach time instead of at load time, to
prevent attaching kprobe_write_ctx=true freplace progs on
kprobe_write_ctx=false kprobe progs (per Gemini/sashiko).
* Move kprobe_write_ctx test code to attach_probe.c and kprobe_write_ctx.c.

selftests/bpf: Add test to verify the fix of kprobe_write_ctx abuse
Add a test to verify the issue: kprobe_write_ctx can be abused to modify
struct pt_regs of kernel functions via kprobe_write_ctx=true freplace
progs.
Without the fix, the issue is verified:
kprobe_write_ctx=true freplace prog is allowed to attach to
kprobe_write_ctx=false kprobe prog. Then, the first arg of
bpf_fentry_test1 will be set as 0, and bpf_prog_test_run_opts() gets
-EFAULT instead of 0.
With the fix, the issue is rejected at attach time.

bpf: Fix abuse of kprobe_write_ctx via freplace
uprobe programs are allowed to modify struct pt_regs.
Since the actual program type of uprobe is KPROBE, it can be abused to
modify struct pt_regs via kprobe+freplace when the kprobe attaches to
kernel functions.
For example,
SEC("?kprobe")
int kprobe(struct pt_regs *regs)
{
return 0;
}
freplace_kprobe prog will attach to kprobe prog.
kprobe prog will attach to a kernel function.
Without this patch, when the kernel function runs, its first arg will
always be set as 0 via the freplace_kprobe prog.
To fix the abuse of kprobe_write_ctx=true via kprobe+freplace, disallow
attaching freplace programs on kprobe programs with different
kprobe_write_ctx values.

cpufreq/amd-pstate: Add support for raw EPP writes
The energy performance preference field of the CPPC request MSR
supports values from 0 to 255, but the strings only offer 4 values.
The other values are useful for tuning the performance of some
workloads.
Add support for writing the raw energy performance preference value
to the sysfs file. If the last value written was an integer then
an integer will be returned. If the last value written was a string
then a string will be returned.
