commit 5d81f7dc9bca4f4963092433e27b508cbe524a32 upstream.

Now that all our infrastructure is in place, let's expose the
availability of ARCH_WORKAROUND_2 to guests. We take this opportunity
to tidy up a couple of SMCCC constants.

<content type='text'>
commit 55e3748e8902ff641e334226bdcb432f9a5d78d3 upstream.

In order to offer ARCH_WORKAROUND_2 support to guests, we need
a bit of infrastructure.

Let's add a flag indicating whether or not the guest uses
SSBD mitigation. Depending on the state of this flag, allow
KVM to disable ARCH_WORKAROUND_2 before entering the guest,
and enable it when exiting it.

<title>ARM: 8764/1: kgdb: fix NUMREGBYTES so that gdb_regs[] is the correct size</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 76ed0b803a2ab793a1b27d1dfe0de7955282cd34 upstream.

NUMREGBYTES (which is used as the size for gdb_regs[]) is incorrectly
based on DBG_MAX_REG_NUM instead of GDB_MAX_REGS. DBG_MAX_REG_NUM
is the number of total registers, while GDB_MAX_REGS is the number
of 'unsigned longs' it takes to serialize those registers. Since
FP registers require 3 'unsigned longs' each, DBG_MAX_REG_NUM is
smaller than GDB_MAX_REGS.

This causes GDB 8.0 give the following error on connect:
"Truncated register 19 in remote 'g' packet"

This also causes the register serialization/deserialization logic
to overflow gdb_regs[], overwriting whatever follows.

Commit 7771c6645700 ("signal/arm: Document conflicts with SI_USER and
SIGFPE") broke the siginfo structure for userspace triggered signals,
causing the strace testsuite to regress.  Fix this by eliminating
the FPE_FIXME definition (which is at the root of the breakage) and
use FPE_FLTINV instead for the case where the hardware appears to be
reporting nonsense.

Since do_undefinstr() uses get_user to get the undefined
instruction, it can be called before kprobes processes
recursive check. This can cause an infinit recursive
exception.
Prohibit probing on get_user functions.

kvm_read_guest() will eventually look up in kvm_memslots(), which requires
either to hold the kvm-&gt;slots_lock or to be inside a kvm-&gt;srcu critical
section.
In contrast to x86 and s390 we don't take the SRCU lock on every guest
exit, so we have to do it individually for each kvm_read_guest() call.

Provide a wrapper which does that and use that everywhere.

Note that ending the SRCU critical section before returning from the
kvm_read_guest() wrapper is safe, because the data has been *copied*, so
we don't need to rely on valid references to the memslot anymore.

<title>arm/arm64: KVM: Add PSCI version selection API</title>

<content type='text'>
Although we've implemented PSCI 0.1, 0.2 and 1.0, we expose either 0.1
or 1.0 to a guest, defaulting to the latest version of the PSCI
implementation that is compatible with the requested version. This is
no different from doing a firmware upgrade on KVM.

But in order to give a chance to hypothetical badly implemented guests
that would have a fit by discovering something other than PSCI 0.2,
let's provide a new API that allows userspace to pick one particular
version of the API.

This is implemented as a new class of "firmware" registers, where
we expose the PSCI version. This allows the PSCI version to be
save/restored as part of a guest migration, and also set to
any supported version if the guest requires it.

Remove the address_space -&gt;tree_lock and use the xa_lock newly added to
the radix_tree_root.  Rename the address_space -&gt;page_tree to -&gt;i_pages,
since we don't really care that it's a tree.

ARM, ARM64 and UniCore32 duplicate the definition of UL():

  #define UL(x) _AC(x, UL)

This is not actually arch-specific, so it will be useful to move it to a
common header.  Currently, we only have the uapi variant for
linux/const.h, so I am creating include/linux/const.h.

I also added _UL(), _ULL() and ULL() because _AC() is mostly used in
the form either _AC(..., UL) or _AC(..., ULL).  I expect they will be
replaced in follow-up cleanups.  The underscore-prefixed ones should
be used for exported headers.
