commit 288d152c23dcf3c09da46c5c481903ca10ebfef7 upstream.
The slow path in vmx_l1d_flush() reads from vmx_l1d_flush_pages in order
to evict the L1d cache.
However, these pages are never cleared and, in theory, their data could be
leaked.
More importantly, KSM could merge a nested hypervisor's vmx_l1d_flush_pages
to fewer than 1 << L1D_CACHE_ORDER host physical pages and this would break
the L1d flushing algorithm: L1D on x86_64 is tagged by physical addresses.
Fix this by initializing the individual vmx_l1d_flush_pages with a
different pattern each.
Rename the "empty_zp" asm constraint identifier in vmx_l1d_flush() to
"flush_pages" to reflect this change.

commit 6c26fcd2abfe0a56bbd95271fce02df2896cfd24 upstream.
pfn_modify_allowed() and arch_has_pfn_modify_check() are outside of the
!__ASSEMBLY__ section in include/asm-generic/pgtable.h, which confuses
assembler on archs that don't have __HAVE_ARCH_PFN_MODIFY_ALLOWED (e.g.
ia64) and breaks build:
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h: Assembler messages:
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h:538: Error: Unknown opcode `static inline bool pfn_modify_allowed(unsigned long pfn,pgprot_t prot)'

Move those two static inlines into the !__ASSEMBLY__ section so that they
don't confuse the asm build pass.

commit d90a7a0ec83fb86622cd7dae23255d3c50a99ec8 upstream.
Introduce the 'l1tf=' kernel command line option to allow for boot-time
switching of mitigation that is used on processors affected by L1TF.
The possible values are:
full
Provides all available mitigations for the L1TF vulnerability. Disables
SMT and enables all mitigations in the hypervisors. SMT control via
/sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control is still possible after boot.
Hypervisors will issue a warning when the first VM is started in
a potentially insecure configuration, i.e. SMT enabled or L1D flush
disabled.
full,force
Same as 'full', but disables SMT control. Implies the 'nosmt=force'
command line option. sysfs control of SMT and the hypervisor flush
control is disabled.
flush
Leaves SMT enabled and enables the conditional hypervisor mitigation.
Hypervisors will issue a warning when the first VM is started in a
potentially insecure configuration, i.e. SMT enabled or L1D flush
disabled.
flush,nosmt
Disables SMT and enables the conditional hypervisor mitigation. SMT
control via /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control is still possible
after boot. If SMT is reenabled or flushing disabled at runtime
hypervisors will issue a warning.
flush,nowarn
Same as 'flush', but hypervisors will not warn when
a VM is started in a potentially insecure configuration.
off
Disables hypervisor mitigations and doesn't emit any warnings.
Default is 'flush'.
Let KVM adhere to these semantics, which means:
- 'lt1f=full,force' : Performe L1D flushes. No runtime control
possible.
- 'l1tf=full'
- 'l1tf-flush'
- 'l1tf=flush,nosmt' : Perform L1D flushes and warn on VM start if
SMT has been runtime enabled or L1D flushing
has been run-time enabled
- 'l1tf=flush,nowarn' : Perform L1D flushes and no warnings are emitted.
- 'l1tf=off' : L1D flushes are not performed and no warnings
are emitted.
KVM can always override the L1D flushing behavior using its 'vmentry_l1d_flush'
module parameter except when lt1f=full,force is set.
This makes KVM's private 'nosmt' option redundant, and as it is a bit
non-systematic anyway (this is something to control globally, not on
hypervisor level), remove that option.
Add the missing Documentation entry for the l1tf vulnerability sysfs file
while at it.

commit fee0aede6f4739c87179eca76136f83210953b86 upstream.
The CPU_SMT_NOT_SUPPORTED state is set (if the processor does not support
SMT) when the sysfs SMT control file is initialized.
That was fine so far as this was only required to make the output of the
control file correct and to prevent writes in that case.
With the upcoming l1tf command line parameter, this needs to be set up
before the L1TF mitigation selection and command line parsing happens.

commit 2f055947ae5e2741fb2dc5bba1033c417ccf4faa upstream.
The VMX module parameter to control the L1D flush should become
writeable.
The MSR list is set up at VM init per guest VCPU, but the run time
switching is based on a static key which is global. Toggling the MSR list
at run time might be feasible, but for now drop this optimization and use
the regular MSR write to make run-time switching possible.
The default mitigation is the conditional flush anyway, so for extra
paranoid setups this will add some small overhead, but the extra code
executed is in the noise compared to the flush itself.
Aside of that the EPT disabled case is not handled correctly at the moment
and the MSR list magic is in the way for fixing that as well.
If it's really providing a significant advantage, then this needs to be
revisited after the code is correct and the control is writable.

commit c595ceee45707f00f64f61c54fb64ef0cc0b4e85 upstream.
Add the logic for flushing L1D on VMENTER. The flush depends on the static
key being enabled and the new l1tf_flush_l1d flag being set.
The flags is set:
- Always, if the flush module parameter is 'always'
- Conditionally at:
- Entry to vcpu_run(), i.e. after executing user space
- From the sched_in notifier, i.e. when switching to a vCPU thread.
- From vmexit handlers which are considered unsafe, i.e. where
sensitive data can be brought into L1D:
- The emulator, which could be a good target for other speculative
execution-based threats,
- The MMU, which can bring host page tables in the L1 cache.
- External interrupts
- Nested operations that require the MMU (see above). That is
vmptrld, vmptrst, vmclear,vmwrite,vmread.
- When handling invept,invvpid

commit 3fa045be4c720146b18a19cea7a767dc6ad5df94 upstream.
336996-Speculative-Execution-Side-Channel-Mitigations.pdf defines a new MSR
(IA32_FLUSH_CMD aka 0x10B) which has similar write-only semantics to other
MSRs defined in the document.
The semantics of this MSR is to allow "finer granularity invalidation of
caching structures than existing mechanisms like WBINVD. It will writeback
and invalidate the L1 data cache, including all cachelines brought in by
preceding instructions, without invalidating all caches (eg. L2 or
LLC). Some processors may also invalidate the first level level instruction
cache on a L1D_FLUSH command. The L1 data and instruction caches may be
shared across the logical processors of a core."
Use it instead of the loop based L1 flush algorithm.

commit a47dd5f06714c844b33f3b5f517b6f3e81ce57b5 upstream.
To mitigate the L1 Terminal Fault vulnerability it's required to flush L1D
on VMENTER to prevent rogue guests from snooping host memory.
CPUs will have a new control MSR via a microcode update to flush L1D with a
single MSR write, but in the absence of microcode a fallback to a software
based flush algorithm is required.
Add a software flush loop which is based on code from Intel.

- "never" Disable the L1D cache flush mitigation
"cond" is trying to avoid L1D cache flushes on VMENTER if the code executed

commit 26acfb666a473d960f0fd971fe68f3e3ad16c70b upstream.
If the L1TF CPU bug is present we allow the KVM module to be loaded as the
major of users that use Linux and KVM have trusted guests and do not want a
broken setup.
Cloud vendors are the ones that are uncomfortable with CVE 2018-3620 and as
such they are the ones that should set nosmt to one.
Setting 'nosmt' means that the system administrator also needs to disable
SMT (Hyper-threading) in the BIOS, or via the 'nosmt' command line
parameter, or via the /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control. See commit
05736e4ac13c ("cpu/hotplug: Provide knobs to control SMT").
Other mitigations are to use task affinity, cpu sets, interrupt binding,
etc - anything to make sure that _only_ the same guests vCPUs are running
on sibling threads.

commit 0cc3cd21657be04cb0559fe8063f2130493f92cf upstream.
Due to the way Machine Check Exceptions work on X86 hyperthreads it's
required to boot up _all_ logical cores at least once in order to set the
CR4.MCE bit.
So instead of ignoring the sibling threads right away, let them boot up
once so they can configure themselves. After they came out of the initial
boot stage check whether its a "secondary" sibling and cancel the operation
which puts the CPU back into offline state.

commit 506a66f374891ff08e064a058c446b336c5ac760 upstream.
Dave Hansen reported, that it's outright dangerous to keep SMT siblings
disabled completely so they are stuck in the BIOS and wait for SIPI.
The reason is that Machine Check Exceptions are broadcasted to siblings and
the soft disabled sibling has CR4.MCE = 0. If a MCE is delivered to a
logical core with CR4.MCE = 0, it asserts IERR#, which shuts down or
reboots the machine. The MCE chapter in the SDM contains the following
blurb:
Because the logical processors within a physical package are tightly
coupled with respect to shared hardware resources, both logical
processors are notified of machine check errors that occur within a
given physical processor. If machine-check exceptions are enabled when
a fatal error is reported, all the logical processors within a physical
package are dispatched to the machine-check exception handler. If
machine-check exceptions are disabled, the logical processors enter the
shutdown state and assert the IERR# signal. When enabling machine-check
exceptions, the MCE flag in control register CR4 should be set for each
logical processor.
Reverting the commit which ignores siblings at enumeration time solves only
half of the problem. The core cpuhotplug logic needs to be adjusted as
well.
This thoughtful engineered mechanism also turns the boot process on all
Intel HT enabled systems into a MCE lottery. MCE is enabled on the boot CPU
before the secondary CPUs are brought up. Depending on the number of
physical cores the window in which this situation can happen is smaller or
larger. On a HSW-EX it's about 750ms:
MCE is enabled on the boot CPU:
[ 0.244017] mce: CPU supports 22 MCE banks
The corresponding sibling #72 boots:
[ 1.008005] .... node #0, CPUs: #72
That means if an MCE hits on physical core 0 (logical CPUs 0 and 72)
between these two points the machine is going to shutdown. At least it's a
known safe state.
It's obvious that the early boot can be hit by an MCE as well and then runs
into the same situation because MCEs are not yet enabled on the boot CPU.
But after enabling them on the boot CPU, it does not make any sense to
prevent the kernel from recovering.
Adjust the nosmt kernel parameter documentation as well.

commit 0d0f6249058834ffe1ceaad0bb31464af66f6e7a upstream.
The PAE 3-level paging code currently doesn't mitigate L1TF by flipping the
offset bits, and uses the high PTE word, thus bits 32-36 for type, 37-63 for
offset. The lower word is zeroed, thus systems with less than 4GB memory are
safe. With 4GB to 128GB the swap type selects the memory locations vulnerable
to L1TF; with even more memory, also the swap offfset influences the address.
This might be a problem with 32bit PAE guests running on large 64bit hosts.
By continuing to keep the whole swap entry in either high or low 32bit word of
PTE we would limit the swap size too much. Thus this patch uses the whole PAE
PTE with the same layout as the 64bit version does. The macros just become a
bit tricky since they assume the arch-dependent swp_entry_t to be 32bit.

commit 7ce2f0393ea2396142b7faf6ee9b1f3676d08a5f upstream.
The TOPOEXT reenablement is a workaround for broken BIOSen which didn't
enable the CPUID bit. amd_get_topology_early(), however, relies on
that bit being set so that it can read out the CPUID leaf and set
smp_num_siblings properly.
Move the reenablement up to early_init_amd(). While at it, simplify
amd_get_topology_early().

commit 11e34e64e4103955fc4568750914c75d65ea87ee upstream.
336996-Speculative-Execution-Side-Channel-Mitigations.pdf defines a new MSR
(IA32_FLUSH_CMD) which is detected by CPUID.7.EDX[28]=1 bit being set.
This new MSR "gives software a way to invalidate structures with finer
granularity than other architectual methods like WBINVD."

commit 1a7ed1ba4bba6c075d5ad61bb75e3fbc870840d6 upstream.
The previous patch has limited swap file size so that large offsets cannot
clear bits above MAX_PA/2 in the pte and interfere with L1TF mitigation.
It assumed that offsets are encoded starting with bit 12, same as pfn. But
on x86_64, offsets are encoded starting with bit 9.
Thus the limit can be raised by 3 bits. That means 16TB with 42bit MAX_PA
and 256TB with 46bit MAX_PA.

commit 2207def700f902f169fc237b717252c326f9e464 upstream.
nosmt on the kernel command line merely prevents the onlining of the
secondary SMT siblings.
nosmt=force makes the APIC detection code ignore the secondary SMT siblings
completely, so they even do not show up as possible CPUs. That reduces the
amount of memory allocations for per cpu variables and saves other
resources from being allocated too large.
This is not fully equivalent to disabling SMT in the BIOS because the low
level SMT enabling in the BIOS can result in partitioning of resources
between the siblings, which is not undone by just ignoring them. Some CPUs
can use the full resources when their sibling is not onlined, but this is
depending on the CPU family and model and it's not well documented whether
this applies to all partitioned resources. That means depending on the
workload disabling SMT in the BIOS might result in better performance.
Linus analysis of the Intel manual:
The intel optimization manual is not very clear on what the partitioning
rules are.
I find:
"In general, the buffers for staging instructions between major pipe
stages are partitioned. These buffers include µop queues after the
execution trace cache, the queues after the register rename stage, the
reorder buffer which stages instructions for retirement, and the load
and store buffers.
In the case of load and store buffers, partitioning also provided an
easier implementation to maintain memory ordering for each logical
processor and detect memory ordering violations"
but some of that partitioning may be relaxed if the HT thread is "not
active":
"In Intel microarchitecture code name Sandy Bridge, the micro-op queue
is statically partitioned to provide 28 entries for each logical
processor, irrespective of software executing in single thread or
multiple threads. If one logical processor is not active in Intel
microarchitecture code name Ivy Bridge, then a single thread executing
on that processor core can use the 56 entries in the micro-op queue"
but I do not know what "not active" means, and how dynamic it is. Some of
that partitioning may be entirely static and depend on the early BIOS
disabling of HT, and even if we park the cores, the resources will just be
wasted.

commit 05736e4ac13c08a4a9b1ef2de26dd31a32cbee57 upstream.
Provide a command line and a sysfs knob to control SMT.
The command line options are:
'nosmt': Enumerate secondary threads, but do not online them
'nosmt=force': Ignore secondary threads completely during enumeration
via MP table and ACPI/MADT.
The sysfs control file has the following states (read/write):
'on': SMT is enabled. Secondary threads can be freely onlined
'off': SMT is disabled. Secondary threads, even if enumerated
cannot be onlined
'forceoff': SMT is permanentely disabled. Writes to the control
file are rejected.
'notsupported': SMT is not supported by the CPU
The command line option 'nosmt' sets the sysfs control to 'off'. This
can be changed to 'on' to reenable SMT during runtime.
The command line option 'nosmt=force' sets the sysfs control to
'forceoff'. This cannot be changed during runtime.
When SMT is 'on' and the control file is changed to 'off' then all online
secondary threads are offlined and attempts to online a secondary thread
later on are rejected.
When SMT is 'off' and the control file is changed to 'on' then secondary
threads can be onlined again. The 'off' -> 'on' transition does not
automatically online the secondary threads.
When the control file is set to 'forceoff', the behaviour is the same as
setting it to 'off', but the operation is irreversible and later writes to
the control file are rejected.
When the control status is 'notsupported' then writes to the control file
are rejected.

commit 6a4d2657e048f096c7ffcad254010bd94891c8c0 upstream.
If the CPU is supporting SMT then the primary thread can be found by
checking the lower APIC ID bits for zero. smp_num_siblings is used to build
the mask for the APIC ID bits which need to be taken into account.
This uses the MPTABLE or ACPI/MADT supplied APIC ID, which can be different
than the initial APIC ID in CPUID. But according to AMD the lower bits have
to be consistent. Intel gave a tentative confirmation as well.

commit 377eeaa8e11fe815b1d07c81c4a0e2843a8c15eb upstream.
For the L1TF workaround its necessary to limit the swap file size to below
MAX_PA/2, so that the higher bits of the swap offset inverted never point
to valid memory.
Add a mechanism for the architecture to override the swap file size check
in swapfile.c and add a x86 specific max swapfile check function that
enforces that limit.
The check is only enabled if the CPU is vulnerable to L1TF.
In VMs with 42bit MAX_PA the typical limit is 2TB now, on a native system
with 46bit PA it is 32TB. The limit is only per individual swap file, so
it's always possible to exceed these limits with multiple swap files or
partitions.

commit 42e4089c7890725fcd329999252dc489b72f2921 upstream.
For L1TF PROT_NONE mappings are protected by inverting the PFN in the page
table entry. This sets the high bits in the CPU's address space, thus
making sure to point to not point an unmapped entry to valid cached memory.
Some server system BIOSes put the MMIO mappings high up in the physical
address space. If such an high mapping was mapped to unprivileged users
they could attack low memory by setting such a mapping to PROT_NONE. This
could happen through a special device driver which is not access
protected. Normal /dev/mem is of course access protected.
To avoid this forbid PROT_NONE mappings or mprotect for high MMIO mappings.
Valid page mappings are allowed because the system is then unsafe anyways.
It's not expected that users commonly use PROT_NONE on MMIO. But to
minimize any impact this is only enforced if the mapping actually refers to
a high MMIO address (defined as the MAX_PA-1 bit being set), and also skip
the check for root.
For mmaps this is straight forward and can be handled in vm_insert_pfn and
in remap_pfn_range().
For mprotect it's a bit trickier. At the point where the actual PTEs are
accessed a lot of state has been changed and it would be difficult to undo
on an error. Since this is a uncommon case use a separate early page talk
walk pass for MMIO PROT_NONE mappings that checks for this condition
early. For non MMIO and non PROT_NONE there are no changes.

commit 17dbca119312b4e8173d4e25ff64262119fcef38 upstream.
L1TF core kernel workarounds are cheap and normally always enabled, However
they still should be reported in sysfs if the system is vulnerable or
mitigated. Add the necessary CPU feature/bug bits.
- Extend the existing checks for Meltdowns to determine if the system is
vulnerable. All CPUs which are not vulnerable to Meltdown are also not
vulnerable to L1TF
- Check for 32bit non PAE and emit a warning as there is no practical way
for mitigation due to the limited physical address bits
- If the system has more than MAX_PA/2 physical memory the invert page
workarounds don't protect the system against the L1TF attack anymore,
because an inverted physical address will also point to valid
memory. Print a warning in this case and report that the system is
vulnerable.
Add a function which returns the PFN limit for the L1TF mitigation, which
will be used in follow up patches for sanity and range checks.

It's not entirely clear that the first page is reserved in all

it's likely a nop.
