Update kcpuid's CSV file to version 2.1, as generated by x86-cpuid-db.
Summary of the v2.1 changes:
* Use a standardized style for all x86 trademarks, registers, opcodes,
byte units, hexadecimal digits, and x86 technical terms. This was
enforced by a number of x86-specific hunspell(5) dictionary and affix
files at the x86-cpuid-db project's CI pipeline.
* Expand abbreviated terms that might be OK in code but not in official
listings (e.g., "addr", "instr", "reg", "virt", etc.)
* Add new Zen5 SoC bits to leaf 0x80000020 and leaf 0x80000021.

Update kcpuid's CSV file to version v2.0, as generated by x86-cpuid-db.
Summary of the v2.0 changes:
* Introduce the leaves:
- Leaf 0x00000003, Transmeta Processor serial number
- Leaf 0x80860000, Transmeta max leaf number + CPU vendor ID
- Leaf 0x80860001, Transmeta extended CPU information
- Leaf 0x80860002, Transmeta Code Morphing Software (CMS) enumeration
- Leaf 0x80860003 => 0x80860006, Transmeta CPU information string
- Leaf 0x80860007, Transmeta "live" CPU information
- Leaf 0xc0000000, Centaur/Zhaoxin's max leaf number
- Leaf 0xc0000001, Centaur/Zhaoxin's extended CPU features
* Add a 0x prefix for leaves 0x0 to 0x9. This maintains consistency with
the rest of the CSV entries.
* Add the new bitfields:
- Leaf 0x7: nmi_src, NMI-source reporting
- Leaf 0x80000001: e_base_type and e_mmx (Transmeta)
* Update the section headers for leaves 0x80000000 and 0x80000005 to
indicate that they are also valid for Transmeta.
Notes:
Leaf 0x3, being not unique to Transmeta, is handled at the generated
CSV file v2.3 update, later in this patch queue.
Leaf 0x80000001 EDX:23 bit, e_mmx, is also available on AMD. A bugfix
is already merged at x86-cpuid-db's -tip for that, and it will be part
of the project's upcoming v2.4 release.:

Explicitly define the CPUID index ranges for Transmeta (0x80860000) and
Centaur/Zhaoxin (0xc0000000).
Without these explicit definitions, their respective CPUID indices would
be skipped during CSV bitfield parsing.

Next commits will introduce vendor-specific CPUID ranges like Transmeta's
0x8086000 range and Centaur's 0xc0000000.
Initially explicit vendor detection was implemented, but it turned out to
be not strictly necessary. As Dave Hansen noted, even established tools
like cpuid(1) just tries all ranges indices, and see if the CPU responds
back with something sensible.
Do something similar at setup_cpuid_range(). Query the range's index,
and check the maximum range function value returned. If it's within an
expected interval of [range_index, range_index + MAX_RANGE_INDEX_OFFSET],
accept the range as valid and further query its leaves.
Set MAX_RANGE_INDEX_OFFSET to a heuristic of 0xff. That should be
sensible enough since all the ranges covered by x86-cpuid-db XML database
are:
0x00000000 0x00000023
0x40000000 0x40000000
0x80000000 0x80000026
0x80860000 0x80860007
0xc0000000 0xc0000001
At setup_cpuid_range(), if the range's returned maximum function was not
sane, mark it as invalid by setting its number of leaves, range->nr, to
zero.
Introduce the for_each_valid_cpuid_range() iterator instead of sprinkling
"range->nr != 0" checks throughout the code.

Let index_to_cpuid_range() return a CPUID range only if the passed index
is within a CPUID range's maximum supported function on the CPU.
Returning a CPUID range that is invalid on the CPU for the passed index
does not make sense.
This also avoids repeating the "function index is within CPUID range"
checks, both at setup_cpuid_range() and index_to_func().

Extend the CPUID index mask macro from 0x80000000 to 0xffff0000. This
accommodates the Transmeta (0x80860000) and Centaur (0xc0000000) index
ranges which will be later added.
This also automatically sets CPUID_FUNCTION_MASK to 0x0000ffff, which is
the actual correct value. Use that macro, instead of the 0xffff literal
where appropriate.

The kcpuid code assumes only two CPUID index ranges, standard (0x0...)
and extended (0x80000000...).
Since additional CPUID index ranges will be added in further commits,
replace the "is_ext" boolean with enumeration-based range classification.
Collect all CPUID ranges in a structured array and introduce helper
macros to iterate over it. Use such helpers throughout the code.

Use the __cpuid_count() intrinsic, provided by GCC and LLVM, instead of
rolling a manual version. Both of the kernel's minimum required GCC
version (5.1) and LLVM version (13.0.1) supports it, and it is heavily
used across standard Linux user-space tooling.
This also makes the CPUID call sites more readable.

Since commit e8c07082a8 ("Kbuild: move to -std=gnu11") and the kernel
allows C99-style variable declarations inside of a for() loop.
Adjust the kcpuid code accordingly.
Note, this helps readability as some of the kcpuid functions have a huge
list of variable declarations on top.
Note, remove the empty lines before cpuid() invocations as it is clearer
to have their parameter initialization and the actual call in one block.

kcpuid --all --detail claims that all bits belong to ECX, in the form
of the header CPUID_${leaf}_ECX[${subleaf}].
Print the correct register name for all CPUID output.
kcpuid --detail also dumps the raw register value if a leaf/subleaf is
covered in the CSV file, but a certain output register within it is not
covered by any CSV entry. Since register names are now properly printed,
and since the CSV file has become exhaustive using x86-cpuid-db, remove
that value dump as it pollutes the output.
While at it, rename decode_bits() to show_reg(). This makes it match its
show_range(), show_leaf() and show_reg_header() counterparts.

instead of spelling it out using EAX to EDX variables.
This allows the CPUID output to be accessed programmatically instead of

If the user passed an invalid CPUID index value through --leaf=index,
kcpuid prints a warning, does nothing, then exits successfully.
Transform the warning to an error, and exit the program with a proper
error code.
Similarly, if the user passed an invalid subleaf, kcpuid prints a
warning, dumps the whole leaf, then exits successfully. Print a clear
error message regarding the invalid subleaf and exit the program with the
proper error code.
Note, moving the "Invalid input index" message from index_to_func() to
show_info() localizes error message handling to the latter, where it
should be. It also allows index_to_func() to be refactored at further
commits.
Note, since after this commit and its parent kcpuid does not just "move
on" on failures, remove the NULL parameter check plus silent exit at
show_func() and show_leaf().

Error handling in kcpuid is unreliable. On malloc() failures, the code
prints an error then just goes on. The error messages are also printed
to standard output instead of standard error.
Use err() and errx() from <err.h> to direct all error messages to
standard error and automatically exit the program. Use err() to include
the errno information, and errx() otherwise. Use warnx() for warnings.
While at it, alphabetically reorder the header includes.

: of vCPU scheduling. This can be particularly annoying when the guest
: needs to know the underlying implementation to mitigate errata.

:
: In absence of an architected solution to this wart on the ecosystem,
: introduce support for paravirtualizing the implementation exposed
: to a VM, allowing the VMM to describe the pool of implementations that a
: VM may be exposed to due to scheduling/migration.
:
: Userspace is expected to intercept and handle these hypercalls using the

While the GCC and Clang compilers already define __ASSEMBLER__
automatically when compiling assembly code, __ASSEMBLY__ is a
macro that only gets defined by the Makefiles in the kernel.
This can be very confusing when switching between userspace
and kernelspace coding, or when dealing with UAPI headers that
rather should use __ASSEMBLER__ instead. So let's standardize on
the __ASSEMBLER__ macro that is provided by the compilers now.
This is mostly a mechanical patch (done with a simple "sed -i"
statement), with some manual tweaks in <asm/frame.h>, <asm/hw_irq.h>
and <asm/setup.h> that mentioned this macro in comments with some
missing underscores.

With AMD TCE (translation cache extensions) only the intermediate mappings
that cover the address range zapped by INVLPG / INVLPGB get invalidated,
rather than all intermediate mappings getting zapped at every TLB invalidation.
This can help reduce the TLB miss rate, by keeping more intermediate mappings
in the cache.
From the AMD manual:
Translation Cache Extension (TCE) Bit. Bit 15, read/write. Setting this bit to
1 changes how the INVLPG, INVLPGB, and INVPCID instructions operate on TLB
entries. When this bit is 0, these instructions remove the target PTE from the
TLB as well as all upper-level table entries that are cached in the TLB,
whether or not they are associated with the target PTE. When this bit is set,
these instructions will remove the target PTE and only those upper-level
entries that lead to the target PTE in the page table hierarchy, leaving
unrelated upper-level entries intact.

The VGIC maintenance IRQ signals various conditions about the LRs, when
the GIC's virtualization extension is used.
So far we didn't need it, but nested virtualization needs to know about
this interrupt, so add a userland interface to setup the IRQ number.
The architecture mandates that it must be a PPI, on top of that this code
only exports a per-device option, so the PPI is the same on all VCPUs.

X86_FEATURE_USE_IBPB was introduced in:
2961298efe ("x86/cpufeatures: Clean up Spectre v2 related CPUID flags")
to have separate flags for when the CPU supports IBPB (i.e. X86_FEATURE_IBPB)
and when an IBPB is actually used to mitigate Spectre v2.
Ever since then, the uses of IBPB expanded. The name became confusing
because it does not control all IBPB executions in the kernel.
Furthermore, because its name is generic and it's buried within
indirect_branch_prediction_barrier(), it's easy to use it not knowing
that it is specific to Spectre v2.
X86_FEATURE_USE_IBPB is no longer needed because all the IBPB executions
it used to control are now controlled through other means (e.g.
switch_mm_*_ibpb static branches).

Convert TRFCR to automatic generation. Add separate definitions for ELx
and EL2 as TRFCR_EL1 doesn't have CX. This also mirrors the previous
definition so no code change is required.
Also add TRFCR_EL12 which will start to be used in a later commit.
Unfortunately, to avoid breaking the Perf build with duplicate
definition errors, the tools copy of the sysreg.h header needs to be
updated at the same time rather than the usual second commit. This is
because the generated version of sysreg
(arch/arm64/include/generated/asm/sysreg-defs.h), is currently shared

essentially guessing which pfns are refcounted pages. The reason to
do so was that KVM needs to map both non-refcounted pages (for example
BARs of VFIO devices) and VM_PFNMAP/VM_MIXMEDMAP VMAs that contain
refcounted pages. However, the result was security issues in the past,
and more recently the inability to map VM_IO and VM_PFNMAP memory
that _is_ backed by struct page but is not refcounted. In particular
this broke virtio-gpu blob resources (which directly map host graphics
buffers into the guest as "vram" for the virtio-gpu device) with the
amdgpu driver, because amdgpu allocates non-compound higher order pages
and the tail pages could not be mapped into KVM.
This requires adjusting all uses of struct page in the per-architecture
code, to always work on the pfn whenever possible. The large series that
did this, from David Stevens and Sean Christopherson, also cleaned up
substantially the set of functions that provided arch code with the
pfn for a host virtual addresses. The previous maze of twisty little
passages, all different, is replaced by five functions (__gfn_to_page,
__kvm_faultin_pfn, the non-__ versions of these two, and kvm_prefetch_pages)
saving almost 200 lines of code.
ARM:
* Support for stage-1 permission indirection (FEAT_S1PIE) and
permission overlays (FEAT_S1POE), including nested virt + the
emulated page table walker
* Introduce PSCI SYSTEM_OFF2 support to KVM + client driver. This call
was introduced in PSCIv1.3 as a mechanism to request hibernation,
similar to the S4 state in ACPI
* Explicitly trap + hide FEAT_MPAM (QoS controls) from KVM guests. As
part of it, introduce trivial initialization of the host's MPAM
context so KVM can use the corresponding traps
* PMU support under nested virtualization, honoring the guest
hypervisor's trap configuration and event filtering when running a
nested guest
* Fixes to vgic ITS serialization where stale device/interrupt table
entries are not zeroed when the mapping is invalidated by the VM
* Avoid emulated MMIO completion if userspace has requested synchronous
external abort injection
* Various fixes and cleanups affecting pKVM, vCPU initialization, and
selftests
LoongArch:
* Add iocsr and mmio bus simulation in kernel.
* Add in-kernel interrupt controller emulation.
* Add support for virtualization extensions to the eiointc irqchip.
PPC:
* Drop lingering and utterly obsolete references to PPC970 KVM, which was
removed 10 years ago.
* Fix incorrect documentation references to non-existing ioctls
RISC-V:
* Accelerate KVM RISC-V when running as a guest
* Perf support to collect KVM guest statistics from host side
s390:
* New selftests: more ucontrol selftests and CPU model sanity checks
* Support for the gen17 CPU model
* List registers supported by KVM_GET/SET_ONE_REG in the documentation
x86:
* Cleanup KVM's handling of Accessed and Dirty bits to dedup code, improve
documentation, harden against unexpected changes. Even if the hardware
A/D tracking is disabled, it is possible to use the hardware-defined A/D
bits to track if a PFN is Accessed and/or Dirty, and that removes a lot
of special cases.
* Elide TLB flushes when aging secondary PTEs, as has been done in x86's
primary MMU for over 10 years.
* Recover huge pages in-place in the TDP MMU when dirty page logging is
toggled off, instead of zapping them and waiting until the page is
re-accessed to create a huge mapping. This reduces vCPU jitter.
* Batch TLB flushes when dirty page logging is toggled off. This reduces
the time it takes to disable dirty logging by ~3x.
* Remove the shrinker that was (poorly) attempting to reclaim shadow page
tables in low-memory situations.
* Clean up and optimize KVM's handling of writes to MSR_IA32_APICBASE.
* Advertise CPUIDs for new instructions in Clearwater Forest
* Quirk KVM's misguided behavior of initialized certain feature MSRs to
their maximum supported feature set, which can result in KVM creating
invalid vCPU state. E.g. initializing PERF_CAPABILITIES to a non-zero
value results in the vCPU having invalid state if userspace hides PDCM
from the guest, which in turn can lead to save/restore failures.
* Fix KVM's handling of non-canonical checks for vCPUs that support LA57
to better follow the "architecture", in quotes because the actual
behavior is poorly documented. E.g. most MSR writes and descriptor
table loads ignore CR4.LA57 and operate purely on whether the CPU
supports LA57.
* Bypass the register cache when querying CPL from kvm_sched_out(), as
filling the cache from IRQ context is generally unsafe; harden the
cache accessors to try to prevent similar issues from occuring in the
future. The issue that triggered this change was already fixed in 6.12,

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"The biggest change here is eliminating the awful idea that KVM had of
essentially guessing which pfns are refcounted pages.
The reason to do so was that KVM needs to map both non-refcounted
pages (for example BARs of VFIO devices) and VM_PFNMAP/VM_MIXMEDMAP
VMAs that contain refcounted pages.
However, the result was security issues in the past, and more recently
the inability to map VM_IO and VM_PFNMAP memory that _is_ backed by
struct page but is not refcounted. In particular this broke virtio-gpu
blob resources (which directly map host graphics buffers into the
guest as "vram" for the virtio-gpu device) with the amdgpu driver,
because amdgpu allocates non-compound higher order pages and the tail
pages could not be mapped into KVM.
This requires adjusting all uses of struct page in the
per-architecture code, to always work on the pfn whenever possible.
The large series that did this, from David Stevens and Sean
Christopherson, also cleaned up substantially the set of functions
that provided arch code with the pfn for a host virtual addresses.
The previous maze of twisty little passages, all different, is
replaced by five functions (__gfn_to_page, __kvm_faultin_pfn, the
non-__ versions of these two, and kvm_prefetch_pages) saving almost
200 lines of code.
ARM:
- Support for stage-1 permission indirection (FEAT_S1PIE) and
permission overlays (FEAT_S1POE), including nested virt + the
emulated page table walker
- Introduce PSCI SYSTEM_OFF2 support to KVM + client driver. This
call was introduced in PSCIv1.3 as a mechanism to request
hibernation, similar to the S4 state in ACPI
- Explicitly trap + hide FEAT_MPAM (QoS controls) from KVM guests. As
part of it, introduce trivial initialization of the host's MPAM
context so KVM can use the corresponding traps
- PMU support under nested virtualization, honoring the guest
hypervisor's trap configuration and event filtering when running a
nested guest
- Fixes to vgic ITS serialization where stale device/interrupt table
entries are not zeroed when the mapping is invalidated by the VM
- Avoid emulated MMIO completion if userspace has requested
synchronous external abort injection
- Various fixes and cleanups affecting pKVM, vCPU initialization, and
selftests
LoongArch:
- Add iocsr and mmio bus simulation in kernel.
- Add in-kernel interrupt controller emulation.
- Add support for virtualization extensions to the eiointc irqchip.
PPC:
- Drop lingering and utterly obsolete references to PPC970 KVM, which
was removed 10 years ago.
- Fix incorrect documentation references to non-existing ioctls
RISC-V:
- Accelerate KVM RISC-V when running as a guest
- Perf support to collect KVM guest statistics from host side
s390:
- New selftests: more ucontrol selftests and CPU model sanity checks
- Support for the gen17 CPU model
- List registers supported by KVM_GET/SET_ONE_REG in the
documentation
x86:
- Cleanup KVM's handling of Accessed and Dirty bits to dedup code,
improve documentation, harden against unexpected changes.
Even if the hardware A/D tracking is disabled, it is possible to
use the hardware-defined A/D bits to track if a PFN is Accessed
and/or Dirty, and that removes a lot of special cases.
- Elide TLB flushes when aging secondary PTEs, as has been done in
x86's primary MMU for over 10 years.
- Recover huge pages in-place in the TDP MMU when dirty page logging
is toggled off, instead of zapping them and waiting until the page
is re-accessed to create a huge mapping. This reduces vCPU jitter.
- Batch TLB flushes when dirty page logging is toggled off. This
reduces the time it takes to disable dirty logging by ~3x.
- Remove the shrinker that was (poorly) attempting to reclaim shadow
page tables in low-memory situations.
- Clean up and optimize KVM's handling of writes to
MSR_IA32_APICBASE.
- Advertise CPUIDs for new instructions in Clearwater Forest
- Quirk KVM's misguided behavior of initialized certain feature MSRs
to their maximum supported feature set, which can result in KVM
creating invalid vCPU state. E.g. initializing PERF_CAPABILITIES to
a non-zero value results in the vCPU having invalid state if
userspace hides PDCM from the guest, which in turn can lead to
save/restore failures.
- Fix KVM's handling of non-canonical checks for vCPUs that support
LA57 to better follow the "architecture", in quotes because the
actual behavior is poorly documented. E.g. most MSR writes and
descriptor table loads ignore CR4.LA57 and operate purely on
whether the CPU supports LA57.
- Bypass the register cache when querying CPL from kvm_sched_out(),
as filling the cache from IRQ context is generally unsafe; harden
the cache accessors to try to prevent similar issues from occuring
in the future. The issue that triggered this change was already
fixed in 6.12, but was still kinda latent.
- Advertise AMD_IBPB_RET to userspace, and fix a related bug where
KVM over-advertises SPEC_CTRL when trying to support cross-vendor
VMs.
- Minor cleanups
- Switch hugepage recovery thread to use vhost_task.
These kthreads can consume significant amounts of CPU time on
behalf of a VM or in response to how the VM behaves (for example
how it accesses its memory); therefore KVM tried to place the
thread in the VM's cgroups and charge the CPU time consumed by that
work to the VM's container.
However the kthreads did not process SIGSTOP/SIGCONT, and therefore
cgroups which had KVM instances inside could not complete freezing.
Fix this by replacing the kthread with a PF_USER_WORKER thread, via
the vhost_task abstraction. Another 100+ lines removed, with
generally better behavior too like having these threads properly
parented in the process tree.
- Revert a workaround for an old CPU erratum (Nehalem/Westmere) that

the broken patch was meant to fix nested virtualization, but the
PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL MSR is virtualized and therefore unaffected by the

- Fix 6.12 regression where CONFIG_KVM will be built as a module even
if asked to be builtin, as long as neither KVM_INTEL nor KVM_AMD is
'y'.

- x86 selftests can now use AVX.

To get the changes in:
924725707d ("arm64: cputype: Add Neoverse-N3 definitions")
That makes this perf source code to be rebuilt:
CC /tmp/build/perf-tools/util/arm-spe.o
The changes in the above patch add MIDR_NEOVERSE_N3, that probably need
changes in arm-spe.c, so probably we need to add it to that array? Or
maybe we need to leave this for later when this is all tested on those
machines?
static const struct midr_range neoverse_spe[] = {
MIDR_ALL_VERSIONS(MIDR_NEOVERSE_N1),
MIDR_ALL_VERSIONS(MIDR_NEOVERSE_N2),

};
Mark Rutland recommended about arm-spe.c in a previous update to this
file:
"I would not touch this for now -- someone would have to go audit the
TRMs to check that those other cores have the same encoding, and I think
it'd be better to do that as a follow-up."
That addresses this perf build warning:
