[PATCH v5 3/3] KVM: x86: Add x2APIC "features" to control EOI broadcast suppression

by Khushit Shah

Add two flags for KVM_CAP_X2APIC_API to allow userspace to control support for Suppress EOI Broadcasts, which KVM completely mishandles. When x2APIC support was first added, KVM incorrectly advertised and "enabled" Suppress EOI Broadcast, without fully supporting the I/O APIC side of the equation, i.e. without adding directed EOI to KVM's in-kernel I/O APIC. That flaw was carried over to split IRQCHIP support, i.e. KVM advertised support for Suppress EOI Broadcasts irrespective of whether or not the userspace I/O APIC implementation supported directed EOIs. Even worse, KVM didn't actually suppress EOI broadcasts, i.e. userspace VMMs without support for directed EOI came to rely on the "spurious" broadcasts. KVM "fixed" the in-kernel I/O APIC implementation by completely disabling support for Suppress EOI Broadcasts in commit 0bcc3fb95b97 ("KVM: lapic: stop advertising DIRECTED_EOI when in-kernel IOAPIC is in use"), but didn't do anything to remedy userspace I/O APIC implementations. KVM's bogus handling of Suppress EOI Broadcast is problematic when the guest relies on interrupts being masked in the I/O APIC until well after the initial local APIC EOI. E.g. Windows with Credential Guard enabled handles interrupts in the following order: 1. Interrupt for L2 arrives. 2. L1 APIC EOIs the interrupt. 3. L1 resumes L2 and injects the interrupt. 4. L2 EOIs after servicing. 5. L1 performs the I/O APIC EOI. Because KVM EOIs the I/O APIC at step #2, the guest can get an interrupt storm, e.g. if the IRQ line is still asserted and userspace reacts to the EOI by re-injecting the IRQ, because the guest doesn't de-assert the line until step #4, and doesn't expect the interrupt to be re-enabled until step #5. Unfortunately, simply "fixing" the bug isn't an option, as KVM has no way of knowing if the userspace I/O APIC supports directed EOIs, i.e. suppressing EOI broadcasts would result in interrupts being stuck masked in the userspace I/O APIC due to step #5 being ignored by userspace. And fully disabling support for Suppress EOI Broadcast is also undesirable, as picking up the fix would require a guest reboot, *and* more importantly would change the virtual CPU model exposed to the guest without any buy-in from userspace. Add KVM_X2APIC_ENABLE_SUPPRESS_EOI_BROADCAST and KVM_X2APIC_DISABLE_SUPPRESS_EOI_BROADCAST flags to allow userspace to explicitly enable or disable support for Suppress EOI Broadcasts. This gives userspace control over the virtual CPU model exposed to the guest, as KVM should never have enabled support for Suppress EOI Broadcast without userspace opt-in. Not setting either flag will result in legacy quirky behavior for backward compatibility. When KVM_X2APIC_ENABLE_SUPPRESS_EOI_BROADCAST is set and using in-kernel IRQCHIP mode, KVM will use I/O APIC version 0x20, which includes support for the EOI Register. Note, Suppress EOI Broadcasts is defined only in Intel's SDM, not in AMD's APM. But the bit is writable on some AMD CPUs, e.g. Turin, and KVM's ABI is to support Directed EOI (KVM's name) irrespective of guest CPU vendor.

If you do that subtitution and work it all out, you end up with: \Sum w_i * (v_i - v0) avg = --------------------- + v0 \Sum w_i Since you cannot very well track a ratio like that (and not suffer terrible numerical problems) we simpy track the numerator and denominator individually and only perform the division when strictly needed. Notably, the numerator lives in cfs_rq->avg_vruntime and the denominator lives in cfs_rq->avg_load. The one extra 'funny' is that these numbers track the entities in the tree, and current is typically outside of the tree, so avg_vruntime() adds current when needed before doing the division. (vruntime_eligible() elides the division by cross-wise multiplication) Anyway, as mentioned above, we currently use the CFS era min_vruntime for this purpose. However, this thing can only move forward, while the above avg can in fact move backward (when a non-eligible task leaves, the average becomes smaller), this can cause trouble when through happenstance (or construction) these values drift far enough apart to wreck the game. Replace cfs_rq::min_vruntime with cfs_rq::zero_vruntime which is kept near/at avg_vruntime, following its motion. The down-side is that this requires computing the avg more often.

[PATCH 0/3] fs: add immutable rootfs and support pivot_root() in the initramfs

by Christian Brauner

Currently pivot_root() doesnt't work on the real rootfs because it cannot be unmounted. Userspace has to do a recursive removal of the initramfs contents manually before continuing the boot. Really all we want from the real rootfs is to serve as the parent mount for anything that is actually useful such as the tmpfs or ramfs for initramfs unpacking or the rootfs itself. There's no need for the real rootfs to actually be anything meaningful or useful. Add a immutable rootfs that can be selected via the "immutable_rootfs" kernel command line option. The kernel will mount a tmpfs/ramfs on top of it, unpack the initramfs and fire up userspace which mounts the rootfs and can then just do: chdir(rootfs); pivot_root(".", "."); umount2(".", MNT_DETACH); and be done with it. (Ofc, userspace can also choose to retain the initramfs contents by using something like pivot_root(".", "/initramfs") without unmounting it.) Technically this also means that the rootfs mount in unprivileged namespaces doesn't need to become MNT_LOCKED anymore as it's guaranteed that the immutable rootfs remains permanently empty so there cannot be anything revealed by unmounting the covering mount. In the future this will also allow us to create completely empty mount namespaces without risking to leak anything. systemd already handles this all correctly as it tries to pivot_root() first and falls back to MS_MOVE only when that fails. This goes back to various discussion in previous years and a LPC 2024 presentation about this very topic.

ba1b40ed0e34bab597fd90d4c4e9f7397f878c8f for 6.18.y

by Miguel Ojeda

Hi Greg, Sasha, Please consider commit ba1b40ed0e34 ("drm: nova: depend on CONFIG_64BIT") for 6.18.y. It should cherry-pick cleanly. Without this commit, one can create a config where `CONFIG_DRM_NOVA` selects `CONFIG_NOVA_CORE` without satisfying its `CONFIG_64BIT` dependency. In turn, this means arm32 builds can fail -- Kconfig warns: WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for NOVA_CORE Depends on [n]: HAS_IOMEM [=y] && 64BIT && PCI [=y] && RUST [=y] && RUST_FW_LOADER_ABSTRACTIONS [=y] Selected by [y]: - DRM_NOVA [=y] && HAS_IOMEM [=y] && DRM [=y]=y [=y] && PCI [=y] && RUST [=y] And then the build fails with (among others, see the related commit 5c5a41a75452 ("gpu: nova-core: depend on CONFIG_64BIT") for more): error[E0308]: mismatched types --> drivers/gpu/nova-core/fb.rs:50:59 | 50 | hal::fb_hal(chipset).write_sysmem_flush_page(bar, page.dma_handle())?; | ----------------------- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ expected `u64`, found `u32` | | | arguments to this method are incorrect | Cc'ing Danilo and Alexandre so that they can confirm they agree.

Please add 127b90315ca0 ("sched/proxy: Yield the donor task") to 6.12.y / 6.18.y

by Holger Hoffstätte

Hi - a Gentoo user recently found that 6.18.2 started to reproducuibly crash when building their go toolchain [1]. Apparently the addition of "sched/fair: Forfeit vruntime on yield" (mainline 79104becf42b) can result in the infamous NULL returned from pick_eevdf(), which is not supposed to happen. It turned out that the mentioned commit triggered a bug related to the recently added proxy execution feature, which was already fixed in mainline by "sched/proxy: Yield the donor task" (127b90315ca0), though not marked for stable. Applying this to 6.18.2/.3-rc1 (and probably 6.12 as well) has reproducibly fixed the problem. A possible reason the crash was triggered by the Go runtime could be its specific use of yield(), though that's just speculation on my part. So please add 127b90315ca0 ("sched/proxy: Yield the donor task") to 6.18.y/6.12.y. I know we're already in 6.18.3-rc1, but the crasher seems reproducible. Fernand, please correct me if I got the explanations wrong. Thanks! Holger [1] https://bugs.gentoo.org/968116 starting at #8
