Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: Strip trailing padding bytes from
modules.builtin.modinfo
After commit d50f21091358 ("kbuild: align modinfo section for Secureboot
Authenticode EDK2 compat"), running modules_install with certain
versions of kmod (such as 29.1 in Ubuntu Jammy) in certain
configurations may fail with:
depmod: ERROR: kmod_builtin_iter_next: unexpected string without modname prefix
The additional padding bytes to ensure .modinfo is aligned within
vmlinux.unstripped are unexpected by kmod, as this section has always
just been null-terminated strings.
Strip the trailing padding bytes from modules.builtin.modinfo after it
has been extracted from vmlinux.unstripped to restore the format that
kmod expects while keeping .modinfo aligned within vmlinux.unstripped to
avoid regressing the Authenticode calculation fix for EDK2.

Hi Sasha,
Same here, can you backport the previous related commit (2f9c63883730
"drm/amd/display: update color on atomic commit time" [1]) too?
Otherwise, the commit below alone will cause regressions.
Thanks,
Melissa

Set the DMA mask before calling nvkm_device_ctor(), so that when the
flush page is created in nvkm_fb_ctor(), the allocation will not fail
if the page is outside of DMA address space, which can easily happen if
IOMMU is disable. In such situations, you will get an error like this:
nouveau 0000:65:00.0: DMA addr 0x0000000107c56000+4096 overflow (mask ffffffff, bus limit 0).
Commit 38f5359354d4 ("rm/nouveau/pci: set streaming DMA mask early")
set the mask after calling nvkm_device_ctor(), but back then there was
no flush page being created, which might explain why the mask wasn't
set earlier.
Flush page allocation was added in commit 5728d064190e ("drm/nouveau/fb:
handle sysmem flush page from common code"). nvkm_fb_ctor() calls
alloc_page(), which can allocate a page anywhere in system memory, but
then calls dma_map_page() on that page. But since the DMA mask is still
set to 32, the map can fail if the page is allocated above 4GB. This is
easy to reproduce on systems with a lot of memory and IOMMU disabled.
An alternative approach would be to force the allocation of the flush
page to low memory, by specifying __GFP_DMA32. However, this would
always allocate the page in low memory, even though the hardware can
access high memory.

2.51.0
KVM currenty fails a nested VMRUN and injects VMEXIT_INVALID (aka
SVM_EXIT_ERR) if L1 sets NP_ENABLE and the host does not support NPTs.
On first glance, it seems like the check should actually be for
guest_cpu_cap_has(X86_FEATURE_NPT) instead, as it is possible for the
host to support NPTs but the guest CPUID to not advertise it.
However, the consistency check is not architectural to begin with. The
APM does not mention VMEXIT_INVALID if NP_ENABLE is set on a processor
that does not have X86_FEATURE_NPT. Hence, NP_ENABLE should be ignored
if X86_FEATURE_NPT is not available for L1. Apart from the consistency
check, this is currently the case because NP_ENABLE is actually copied
from VMCB01 to VMCB02, not from VMCB12.
On the other hand, the APM does mention two other consistency checks for
NP_ENABLE, both of which are missing (paraphrased):
In Volume #2, 15.25.3 (24593—Rev. 3.42—March 2024):
If VMRUN is executed with hCR0.PG cleared to zero and NP_ENABLE set to
1, VMRUN terminates with #VMEXIT(VMEXIT_INVALID)
In Volume #2, 15.25.4 (24593—Rev. 3.42—March 2024):
When VMRUN is executed with nested paging enabled (NP_ENABLE = 1), the
following conditions are considered illegal state combinations, in
addition to those mentioned in “Canonicalization and Consistency
Checks”:
• Any MBZ bit of nCR3 is set.
• Any G_PAT.PA field has an unsupported type encoding or any
reserved field in G_PAT has a nonzero value.
Replace the existing consistency check with consistency checks on
hCR0.PG and nCR3. Only perform the consistency checks if L1 has
X86_FEATURE_NPT and NP_ENABLE is set in VMCB12. The G_PAT consistency
check will be addressed separately.
As it is now possible for an L1 to run L2 with NP_ENABLE set but
ignored, also check that L1 has X86_FEATURE_NPT in nested_npt_enabled().
Pass L1's CR0 to __nested_vmcb_check_controls(). In
nested_vmcb_check_controls(), L1's CR0 is available through
kvm_read_cr0(), as vcpu->arch.cr0 is not updated to L2's CR0 until later
through nested_vmcb02_prepare_save() -> svm_set_cr0().
In svm_set_nested_state(), L1's CR0 is available in the captured save
area, as svm_get_nested_state() captures L1's save area when running L2,
and L1's CR0 is stashed in VMCB01 on nested VMRUN (in
nested_svm_vmrun()).

it clear that in one case, vmcb_mark_dirty() was being called on VMCB12.
It is not architecturally defined for the CPU to clear arbitrary clean
bits, and it is not needed, so drop that one call.
Technically fixes the non-architectural behavior of setting the dirty
bit on VMCB12.

From: Samuel Zhang <guoqing.zhang(a)amd.com>
[ Upstream commit eb6e7f520d6efa4d4ebf1671455abe4a681f7a05 ]
On PF passthrough environment, after hibernate and then resume, coralgemm
will cause gpu page fault.
Mode1 reset happens during hibernate, but partition mode is not restored
on resume, register mmCP_HYP_XCP_CTL and mmCP_PSP_XCP_CTL is not right
after resume. When CP access the MQD BO, wrong stride size is used,
this will cause out of bound access on the MQD BO, resulting page fault.
The fix is to ensure gfx_v9_4_3_switch_compute_partition() is called
when resume from a hibernation.
KFD resume is called separately during a reset recovery or resume from
suspend sequence. Hence it's not required to be called as part of
partition switch.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:
Based on my comprehensive analysis using semantic code analysis tools
and repository examination, here's my assessment:
## **BACKPORT DECISION: YES**
### Analysis Process and Findings:
#### 1. **Semantic Analysis Tools Used:**
- **mcp__semcode__find_function**: Located
`aqua_vanjaram_switch_partition_mode`, `gfx_v9_4_3_cp_resume`, and
`amdgpu_xcp_restore_partition_mode`
- **mcp__semcode__find_callers**: Traced call graph showing
`gfx_v9_4_3_cp_resume` is called during resume via
`gfx_v9_4_3_hw_init`
- **mcp__semcode__find_callchain**: Confirmed the resume path and
analyzed impact scope
- **mcp__semcode__find_type**: Examined `struct amdgpu_device` to verify
`in_suspend` flag management
- **WebSearch**: Found mailing list discussions showing multiple patch
iterations (v2, v3, v4)
- **Repository analysis**: Traced historical context and related commits
#### 2. **Impact Analysis:**
**Severity: HIGH** - This fixes GPU page faults that crash user
workloads
- **Hardware affected**: Aqua Vanjaram/MI300 series datacenter GPUs
(gfx_v9_4_3, IP versions 9.4.4 and 9.5.0)
- **Configuration**: PF passthrough environments (SR-IOV virtualization)
- **Trigger**: User-space reachable via hibernation cycle + workload
execution
- **Root cause**: Out-of-bounds memory access on MQD (Memory Queue
Descriptor) buffer object due to wrong CP register values
(CP_HYP_XCP_CTL)
#### 3. **Code Changes Analysis:**
**Two minimal, targeted changes:**
**Change 1** (drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/aqua_vanjaram.c:410-411):
```c
-if (adev->kfd.init_complete && !amdgpu_in_reset(adev))
+if (adev->kfd.init_complete && !amdgpu_in_reset(adev) &&
!adev->in_suspend)
flags |= AMDGPU_XCP_OPS_KFD;
```
- Prevents KFD operations during suspend/hibernation
- KFD resume is handled separately in the resume sequence
**Change 2** (drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/gfx_v9_4_3.c:2295-2298):
```c
+if (adev->in_suspend)
+ amdgpu_xcp_restore_partition_mode(adev->xcp_mgr);
+else if (amdgpu_xcp_query_partition_mode(...) ==
AMDGPU_UNKNOWN_COMPUTE_PARTITION_MODE)
```
- Adds hibernation resume handling to restore partition mode
- Uses existing `amdgpu_xcp_restore_partition_mode()` function (added in
c45e38f21754b, Sept 2023)
- Ensures CP registers get correct values on resume
#### 4. **Scope and Dependencies:**
- **Contained fix**: Only 3 lines changed across 2 files
- **Existing infrastructure**: Depends on
`amdgpu_xcp_restore_partition_mode()` which has been in the kernel
since Sept 2023
- **Low coupling**: Changes are isolated to resume path, don't affect
normal operation
- **Call graph impact**: Minimal - only affects hibernation resume
codepath
#### 5. **Stable Tree Compliance:**
✅ **Bug fix**: Yes - fixes GPU page faults
✅ **Small and contained**: 3-line change
✅ **No new features**: Uses existing restore function
✅ **No architectural changes**: Follows pattern from c45e38f21754b
❌ **Stable tags**: No "Fixes:" or "Cc: stable@" tags present
However, the absence of stable tags appears to be an oversight given the
severity.
#### 6. **Risk Assessment:**
**Low regression risk:**
- Only affects specific hardware (Aqua Vanjaram GPUs)
- Only impacts PF passthrough configuration
- Only touches hibernation resume path
- Multiple patch iterations suggest thorough testing
- Builds on proven pattern from 2023 reset handling
#### 7. **Historical Context:**
- Part of ongoing partition mode fixes (multiple related commits in
2024-2025)
- Web search revealed extensive mailing list discussion
- Multiple patch versions (v2, v3, v4) indicate careful upstream review
- Targeted for drm-next-6.19
### Conclusion:
This commit **SHOULD be backported** because it:
1. Fixes a serious user-visible bug (GPU crashes from page faults)
2. Has minimal code changes with low regression risk
3. Affects critical datacenter hardware (MI300 series)
4. Is well-tested with multiple upstream review cycles
5. Follows established architectural patterns
6. Is confined to a specific use case, limiting blast radius
The fix is essential for users running AMD MI300 GPUs in virtualized
environments with hibernation support.
