After this patch, VMX- and SVM-specific code can set a flag in
switch_db_regs, telling vcpu_enter_guest that on the next exit the debug
registers might be dirty and need to be reloaded (syncing will be taken
care of by a new callback in kvm_x86_ops). This flag can be set on the
first access to a debug registers, so that multiple accesses to the
debug registers only cause one vmexit.
Note that since the guest will be able to read debug registers and
enable breakpoints in DR7, we need to ensure that they are synchronized
on entry to the guest---including DR6 that was not synced before.

It's no longer possible to enter enable_irq_window in guest mode when
L1 intercepts external interrupts and we are entering L2. This is now

We cannot rely on the hardware-provided preemption timer support because
we are holding L2 in HLT outside non-root mode. Furthermore, emulating
the preemption will resolve tick rate errata on older Intel CPUs.
The emulation is based on hrtimer which is started on L2 entry, stopped
on L2 exit and evaluated via the new check_nested_events hook. As we no
longer rely on hardware features, we can enable both the preemption
timer support and value saving unconditionally.

Move the check for leaving L2 on pending and intercepted IRQs or NMIs
from the *_allowed handler into a dedicated callback. Invoke this
callback at the relevant points before KVM checks if IRQs/NMIs can be
injected. The callback has the task to switch from L2 to L1 if needed
and inject the proper vmexit events.
The rework fixes L2 wakeups from HLT and provides the foundation for
preemption timer emulation.

Don Zickus reports:
A customer generated an external NMI using their iLO to test kdump
worked. Unfortunately, the machine hung. Disabling the nmi_watchdog
made things work.
I speculated the external NMI fired, caused the machine to panic (as
expected) and the perf NMI from the watchdog came in and was latched.
My guess was this somehow caused the hang.
----
It appears that the latched NMI stays latched until the early page
table generation on 64 bits, which causes exceptions to happen which
end in IRET, which re-enable NMI. Therefore, ignore NMIs that come in
during early execution, until we have proper exception handling.

Ftrace modifies function calls using Int3 breakpoints on x86.
The breakpoints are handled only when the patching is in progress.
If something goes wrong, there is a recovery code that removes
the breakpoints. If this fails, the system might get silently
rebooted when a remaining break is not handled or an invalid
instruction is proceed.
We should BUG() when the breakpoint could not be removed. Otherwise,
the system silently crashes when the function finishes the Int3
handler is disabled.
Note that we need to modify remove_breakpoint() to return non-zero
value only when there is an error. The return value was ignored before,
so it does not cause any troubles.

No architecture uses the "data" parameter in ftrace_dyn_arch_init() in any
way, it just sets the value to 0. And this is used as a return value
in the caller -- ftrace_init, which just checks the retval against
zero.
Note there is also "return 0" in every ftrace_dyn_arch_init. So it is
enough to check the retval and remove all the indirect sets of data on
all archs.

The dump_trace() function in dumpstack_64.c is hard to follow.
The test for exception stack is processed differently than the
test for irq stack, and the normal stack is outside completely.
By restructuring this code to have all the stacks determined by
a single function that returns an enum of the following:
STACK_IS_NORMAL
STACK_IS_EXCEPTION
STACK_IS_IRQ
STACK_IS_UNKNOWN
and has the logic of each within a switch statement.
This should make the code much easier to read and understand.

x86_64 uses a per_cpu variable kernel_stack to always point to
the thread stack of current. This is where the thread_info is stored
and is accessed from this location even when the irq or exception stack
is in use. This removes the complexity of having to maintain the
thread info on the stack when interrupts are running and having to
copy the preempt_count and other fields to the interrupt stack.
x86_32 uses the old method of copying the thread_info from the thread
stack to the exception stack just before executing the exception.
Having the two different requires #ifdefs and also the x86_32 way
is a bit of a pain to maintain. By converting x86_32 to the same
method of x86_64, we can remove #ifdefs, clean up the x86_32 code
a little, and remove the overhead of the copy.

The i386 thread_info contains a previous_esp field that is used
to daisy chain the different stacks for dump_stack()
(ie. irq, softirq, thread stacks).
The goal is to eventual make i386 handling of thread_info the same
as x86_64, which means that the thread_info will not be in the stack
but as a per_cpu variable. We will no longer depend on thread_info
being able to daisy chain different stacks as it will only exist
in one location (the thread stack).
By moving previous_esp to the end of thread_info and referencing
it as an offset instead of using a thread_info field, this becomes
a stepping stone to moving the thread_info.
The offset to get to the previous stack is rather ugly in this
patch, but this is only temporary and the prev_esp will be changed
in the next commit. This commit is more for sanity checks of the
change.

Building on commit 0ac09f9f8c ("x86, trace: Fix CR2 corruption when

- Now that read_cr2() is lifted into trace_do_page_fault(), we should
pass the address to trace_page_fault_entries() to avoid it
re-reading a potentially changed cr2.
- Put both trace_do_page_fault() and trace_page_fault_entries() under
CONFIG_TRACING.
- Mark both fault entry functions {,trace_}do_page_fault() as notrace
to avoid getting __mcount or other function entry trace callbacks
before we've observed CR2.
- Mark __do_page_fault() as noinline to guarantee the function tracer
does get to see the fault.

Reboot is the last service linux OS provides to the end user. We are
supposed to make this function more robust than today. This patch adds
all of the known reboot methods into the default attempt list. The
machines requiring reboot=efi or reboot=p or reboot=bios get a chance
to reboot automatically now.
If there is a new reboot method emerged, we are supposed to add it to
the default list as well, instead of adding the endless dmidecode entry.
If one method required is in the default list in this patch but the
machine reboot still hangs, that means some methods ahead of the
required method cause the system hangs, then reboot the machine by
passing reboot= arguments and submit the reboot dmidecode table quirk.
We are supposed to remove the reboot dmidecode table from the kernel,
but to be safe, we keep it. This patch prevents us from adding more.
If you happened to have a machine listed in the reboot dmidecode
table and this patch makes reboot work on your machine, please submit
a patch to remove the quirk.
The default reboot order with this patch is now:
ACPI > KBD > ACPI > KBD > EFI > CF9_COND > BIOS
Because BIOS and TRIPLE are mutually exclusive (either will either
work or hang the machine) that method is not included.

to be monitored carefully for regressions. ]

The trace_do_page_fault function trigger tracepoint
and then handles the actual page fault.
This could lead to error if the tracepoint caused page
fault. The original cr2 value gets lost and the original
page fault handler kills current process with SIGSEGV.
This happens if you record page faults with callchain
data, the user part of it will cause tracepoint handler
to page fault:
# perf record -g -e exceptions:page_fault_user ls
Fixing this by saving the original cr2 value
and using it after tracepoint handler is done.
v2: Moving the cr2 read before exception_enter, because
it could trigger tracepoint as well.

Some firmware appears to enable interrupts during boot service calls,
even if we've explicitly disabled them prior to the call. This is
actually allowed per the UEFI spec because boottime services expect to
be called with interrupts enabled.
So that's fine, we just need to ensure that we disable them again in
efi_enter32() before switching to a 64-bit GDT, otherwise an interrupt
may fire causing a 32-bit IRQ handler to run after we've left
compatibility mode.
Despite efi_enter32() being called both for boottime and runtime
services, this really only affects boottime because the runtime services
callchain is executed with interrupts disabled. See efi_thunk().

Some EFI firmware makes use of the FPU during boottime services and
clearing X86_CR4_OSFXSR by overwriting %cr4 causes the firmware to
crash.
Add the PAE bit explicitly instead of trashing the existing contents,
leaving the rest of the bits as the firmware set them.

Add the Kconfig option and bump the kernel header version so that boot
loaders can check whether the handover code is available if they want.
The xloadflags field in the bzImage header is also updated to reflect
that the kernel supports both entry points by setting both of
XLF_EFI_HANDOVER_32 and XLF_EFI_HANDOVER_64 when CONFIG_EFI_MIXED=y.
XLF_CAN_BE_LOADED_ABOVE_4G is disabled so that the kernel text is
guaranteed to be addressable with 32-bits.
Note that no boot loaders should be using the bits set in xloadflags to
decide which entry point to jump to. The entire scheme is based on the
concept that 32-bit bootloaders always jump to ->handover_offset and
64-bit loaders always jump to ->handover_offset + 512. We set both bits
merely to inform the boot loader that it's safe to use the native
handover offset even if the machine type in the PE/COFF header claims
otherwise.

Setup the runtime services based on whether we're booting in EFI native
mode or not. For non-native mode we need to thunk from 64-bit into
32-bit mode before invoking the EFI runtime services.
Using the runtime services after SetVirtualAddressMap() is slightly more
complicated because we need to ensure that all the addresses we pass to
the firmware are below the 4GB boundary so that they can be addressed
with 32-bit pointers, see efi_setup_page_tables().

The EFI handover code only works if the "bitness" of the firmware and
the kernel match, i.e. 64-bit firmware and 64-bit kernel - it is not
possible to mix the two. This goes against the tradition that a 32-bit
kernel can be loaded on a 64-bit BIOS platform without having to do
anything special in the boot loader. Linux distributions, for one thing,
regularly run only 32-bit kernels on their live media.
Despite having only one 'handover_offset' field in the kernel header,
EFI boot loaders use two separate entry points to enter the kernel based
on the architecture the boot loader was compiled for,
(1) 32-bit loader: handover_offset
(2) 64-bit loader: handover_offset + 512
Since we already have two entry points, we can leverage them to infer
the bitness of the firmware we're running on, without requiring any boot
loader modifications, by making (1) and (2) valid entry points for both
CONFIG_X86_32 and CONFIG_X86_64 kernels.
To be clear, a 32-bit boot loader will always use (1) and a 64-bit boot
loader will always use (2). It's just that, if a single kernel image
supports (1) and (2) that image can be used with both 32-bit and 64-bit
boot loaders, and hence both 32-bit and 64-bit EFI.
(1) and (2) must be 512 bytes apart at all times, but that is already
part of the boot ABI and we could never change that delta without
breaking existing boot loaders anyhow.

Implement the transition code to go from IA32e mode to protected mode in
the EFI boot stub. This is required to use 32-bit EFI services from a
64-bit kernel.
Since EFI boot stub is executed in an identity-mapped region, there's
not much we need to do before invoking the 32-bit EFI boot services.
However, we do reload the firmware's global descriptor table
(efi32_boot_gdt) in case things like timer events are still running in
the firmware.

It's not possible to dereference the EFI System table directly when
booting a 64-bit kernel on a 32-bit EFI firmware because the size of
pointers don't match.
In preparation for supporting the above use case, build a list of
function pointers on boot so that callers don't have to worry about
converting pointer sizes through multiple levels of indirection.

The traditional approach of using machine-specific types such as
'unsigned long' does not allow the kernel to interact with firmware
running in a different CPU mode, e.g. 64-bit kernel with 32-bit EFI.
Add distinct EFI structure definitions for both 32-bit and 64-bit so
that we can use them in the 32-bit and 64-bit code paths.
