2026-04-05mm: rename zap_vma_ptes() to zap_special_vma_range()David Hildenbrand (Arm)
zap_vma_ptes() is the only zapping function we export to modules. It's essentially a wrapper around zap_vma_range(), however, with some safety checks: * That the passed range fits fully into the VMA * That it's only used for VM_PFNMAP We will add support for VM_MIXEDMAP next, so use the more-generic term "special vma", although "special" is a bit overloaded. Maybe we'll later just support any VM_SPECIAL flag. While at it, improve the kerneldoc.

2026-04-05x86/mce/amd: Filter bogus hardware errors on Zen3 clientsYazen Ghannam
Users have been observing multiple L3 cache deferred errors after recent kernel rework of deferred error handling.¹ ⁴ The errors are bogus due to inconsistent status values. Also, user verified that bogus MCA_DESTAT values are present on the system even with an older kernel.² The errors seem to be garbage values present in the MCA_DESTAT of some L3 cache banks. These were implicitly ignored before the recent kernel rework because these do not generate a deferred error interrupt. A later revision of the rework patch was merged for v6.19. This naturally filtered out most of the bogus error logs. However, a few signatures still remain.³ Minimize the scope of the filter to the reported CPU family/model/stepping and only for errors which don't have the Enabled bit in the MCi status MSR. ¹ https://lore.kernel.org/20250915010010.3547-1-spasswolf@web.de ² https://lore.kernel.org/6e1eda7dd55f6fa30405edf7b0f75695cf55b237.camel@web.de ³ https://lore.kernel.org/21ba47fa8893b33b94370c2a42e5084cf0d2e975.camel@web.de ⁴ https://lore.kernel.org/r/CAKFB093B2k3sKsGJ_QNX1jVQsaXVFyy=wNwpzCGLOXa_vSDwXw@mail.gmail.com [ bp: Generalize the condition according to which errors are bogus. ] Fixes: 7cb735d7c0cb ("x86/mce: Unify AMD DFR handler with MCA Polling") Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/20250915010010.3547-1-spasswolf@web.de Reported-by: Bert Karwatzki <spasswolf@web.de> Signed-off-by: Yazen Ghannam <yazen.ghannam@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov (AMD) <bp@alien8.de> Reviewed-by: Mario Limonciello <mario.limonciello@amd.com> Tested-By: Bert Karwatzki <spasswolf@web.de> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Link: https://lore.kernel.org/20250915010010.3547-1-spasswolf@web.de
2026-04-04Drivers: hv: Move add_interrupt_randomness() to hypervisor callback sysvecMichael Kelley
The Hyper-V ISRs, for normal guests and when running in the hypervisor root patition, are calling add_interrupt_randomness() as a primary source of entropy. The call is currently in the ISRs as a common place to handle both x86/x64 and arm64. On x86/x64, hypervisor interrupts come through a custom sysvec entry, and do not go through a generic interrupt handler. On arm64, hypervisor interrupts come through an emulated GICv3. GICv3 uses the generic handler handle_percpu_devid_irq(), which does not do add_interrupt_randomness() -- unlike its counterpart handle_percpu_irq(). But handle_percpu_devid_irq() is now updated to do the add_interrupt_randomness(). So add_interrupt_randomness() is now needed only in Hyper-V's x86/x64 custom sysvec path. Move add_interrupt_randomness() from the Hyper-V ISRs into the Hyper-V x86/x64 custom sysvec path, matching the existing STIMER0 sysvec path. With this change, add_interrupt_randomness() is no longer called from any device drivers, which is appropriate.

Also drop the IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_CPU_SUP_AMD/HYGON) guards, because 1) they are dead code: when a vendor's CONFIG_CPU_SUP_* is disabled, its vendor detection code (in amd.c / hygon.c) is not compiled, so x86_vendor will never be set to X86_VENDOR_AMD / X86_VENDOR_HYGON, instead it will default to X86_VENDOR_UNKNOWN and those switch cases are unreachable. 2) topology_amd.o is always built (obj-y), so cpu_parse_topology_amd() is always available regardless of CPU_SUP_* configuration.

2026-03-23x86/cpu: Remove X86_CR4_FRED from the CR4 pinned bits maskBorislav Petkov (AMD)
Commit in Fixes added the FRED CR4 bit to the CR4 pinned bits mask so that whenever something else modifies CR4, that bit remains set. Which in itself is a perfectly fine idea. However, there's an issue when during boot FRED is initialized: first on the BSP and later on the APs. Thus, there's a window in time when exceptions cannot be handled. This becomes particularly nasty when running as SEV-{ES,SNP} or TDX guests which, when they manage to trigger exceptions during that short window described above, triple fault due to FRED MSRs not being set up yet. See Link tag below for a much more detailed explanation of the situation. So, as a result, the commit in that Link URL tried to address this shortcoming by temporarily disabling CR4 pinning when an AP is not online yet. However, that is a problem in itself because in this case, an attack on the kernel needs to only modify the online bit - a single bit in RW memory - and then disable CR4 pinning and then disable SM*P, leading to more and worse things to happen to the system. So, instead, remove the FRED bit from the CR4 pinning mask, thus obviating the need to temporarily disable CR4 pinning. If someone manages to disable FRED when poking at CR4, then idt_invalidate() would make sure the system would crash'n'burn on the first exception triggered, which is a much better outcome security-wise.

2026-03-23x86/cpu: Enable FSGSBASE early in cpu_init_exception_handling()Nikunj A Dadhania
Move FSGSBASE enablement from identify_cpu() to cpu_init_exception_handling() to ensure it is enabled before any exceptions can occur on both boot and secondary CPUs. == Background == Exception entry code (paranoid_entry()) uses ALTERNATIVE patching based on X86_FEATURE_FSGSBASE to decide whether to use RDGSBASE/WRGSBASE instructions or the slower RDMSR/SWAPGS sequence for saving/restoring GSBASE. On boot CPU, ALTERNATIVE patching happens after enabling FSGSBASE in CR4. When the feature is available, the code is permanently patched to use RDGSBASE/WRGSBASE, which require CR4.FSGSBASE=1 to execute without triggering == Boot Sequence == Boot CPU (with CR pinning enabled): trap_init() cpu_init() <- Uses unpatched code (RDMSR/SWAPGS) x2apic_setup() ... arch_cpu_finalize_init() identify_boot_cpu() identify_cpu() cr4_set_bits(X86_CR4_FSGSBASE) # Enables the feature # This becomes part of cr4_pinned_bits ... alternative_instructions() <- Patches code to use RDGSBASE/WRGSBASE Secondary CPUs (with CR pinning enabled): start_secondary() cr4_init() <- Code already patched, CR4.FSGSBASE=1 set implicitly via cr4_pinned_bits cpu_init() <- exceptions work because FSGSBASE is already enabled Secondary CPU (with CR pinning disabled): start_secondary() cr4_init() <- Code already patched, CR4.FSGSBASE=0 cpu_init() x2apic_setup() rdmsrq(MSR_IA32_APICBASE) <- Triggers #VC in SNP guests exc_vmm_communication() paranoid_entry() <- Uses RDGSBASE with CR4.FSGSBASE=0 (patched code) ... ap_starting() identify_secondary_cpu() identify_cpu() cr4_set_bits(X86_CR4_FSGSBASE) <- Enables the feature, which is too late == CR Pinning == Currently, for secondary CPUs, CR4.FSGSBASE is set implicitly through CR-pinning: the boot CPU sets it during identify_cpu(), it becomes part of cr4_pinned_bits, and cr4_init() applies those pinned bits to secondary CPUs. This works but creates an undocumented dependency between cr4_init() and the pinning mechanism. == Problem == Secondary CPUs boot after alternatives have been applied globally. They execute already-patched paranoid_entry() code that uses RDGSBASE/WRGSBASE instructions, which require CR4.FSGSBASE=1. Upcoming changes to CR pinning behavior will break the implicit dependency, causing secondary CPUs to generate #UD. This issue manifests itself on AMD SEV-SNP guests, where the rdmsrq() in x2apic_setup() triggers a #VC exception early during cpu_init(). The #VC handler (exc_vmm_communication()) executes the patched paranoid_entry() path. Without CR4.FSGSBASE enabled, RDGSBASE instructions trigger #UD. == Fix == Enable FSGSBASE explicitly in cpu_init_exception_handling() before loading exception handlers. This makes the dependency explicit and ensures both boot and secondary CPUs have FSGSBASE enabled before paranoid_entry() executes.

2026-03-18x86/mce/amd: Check SMCA feature bit before accessing SMCA MSRsWilliam Roche
People do effort to inject MCEs into guests in order to simulate/test handling of hardware errors. The real use case behind it is testing the handling of SIGBUS which the memory failure code sends to the process. If that process is QEMU, instead of killing the whole guest, the MCE can be injected into the guest kernel so that latter can attempt proper handling and kill the user *process* in the guest, instead, which caused the MCE. The assumption being here that the whole injection flow can supply enough information that the guest kernel can pinpoint the right process. But that's a different topic... Regardless of virtualization or not, access to SMCA-specific registers like MCA_DESTAT should only be done after having checked the smca feature bit. And there are AMD machines like Bulldozer (the one before Zen1) which do support deferred errors but are not SMCA machines. Therefore, properly check the feature bit before accessing related MSRs.

2026-03-05x86/microcode: Add platform mask to Intel microcode "old" listDave Hansen
Intel sometimes has CPUs with identical family/model/stepping but which need different microcode. These CPUs are differentiated with the platform ID. The Intel "microcode-20250512" release was used to generate the existing contents of intel-ucode-defs.h. Use that same release and add the platform mask to the definitions. This makes the list a few entries longer because some CPUs previously that shared a definition now need two or more. for example for the ancient Pentium III there are two CPUs that differ only in their platform and have two different microcode versions (note: .driver_data is the microcode version): { ..., .model = 0x05, .steppings = 0x0001, .platform_mask = 0x01, .driver_data = 0x40 }, { ..., .model = 0x05, .steppings = 0x0001, .platform_mask = 0x08, .driver_data = 0x45 }, Another example is the state-of-the-art Granite Rapids: { ..., .model = 0xad, .steppings = 0x0002, .platform_mask = 0x20, .driver_data = 0xa0000d1 }, { ..., .model = 0xad, .steppings = 0x0002, .platform_mask = 0x95, .driver_data = 0x10003a2 }, As you can see, this differentiation with platform ID has been necessary for a long time and is still relevant today. Without the platform matching, the old microcode table is incomplete. For instance, it might lead someone with a Pentium III, platform 0x0, and microcode 0x40 to think that they should have microcode 0x45, which is really only for platform 0x4 (.platform_mask==0x08). In practice, this meant that folks with fully updated microcode were seeing "Vulnerable" in the "old_microcode" file. 1. https://github.com/intel/Intel-Linux-Processor-Microcode-Data-Files Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/all/38660F8F-499E-48CD-B58B-4822228A5941@nutanix.com/ Fixes: 4e2c719782a8 ("x86/cpu: Help users notice when running old Intel microcode") Reported-by: Jon Kohler <jon@nutanix.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: Sohil Mehta <sohil.mehta@intel.com> Tested-by: Zhao Liu <zhao1.liu@intel.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/3ECBB974-C6F0-47A7-94B6-3646347F1CC2@nutanix.com/ Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260304181024.76E3F038@davehans-spike.ostc.intel.com
2026-03-05x86/cpu: Add platform ID to CPU matching structureDave Hansen
The existing x86_match_cpu() infrastructure can be used to match a bunch of attributes of a CPU: vendor, family, model, steppings and CPU features. But, there's one more attribute that's missing and unable to be matched against: the platform ID, enumerated on Intel CPUs in MSR_IA32_PLATFORM_ID. It is a little more obscure and is only queried during microcode loading. This is because Intel sometimes has CPUs with identical family/model/stepping but which need different microcode. These CPUs are differentiated with the platform ID. Add a field in 'struct x86_cpu_id' for the platform ID. Similar to the stepping field, make the new field a mask of platform IDs. Some examples: 0x01: matches only platform ID 0x0 0x02: matches only platform ID 0x1 0x03: matches platform IDs 0x0 or 0x1 0x80: matches only platform ID 0x7 0xff: matches all 8 possible platform IDs Since the mask is only a byte wide, it nestles in next to another u8 and does not even increase the size of 'struct x86_cpu_id'. Reserve the all 0's value as the wildcard (X86_PLATFORM_ANY). This avoids forcing changes to existing 'struct x86_cpu_id' users. They can just continue to fill the field with 0's and their matching will work exactly as before. Note: If someone is ever looking for space in 'struct x86_cpu_id', this new field could probably get stuck over in ->driver_data for the one user that there is.

2026-03-05x86/cpu: Add platform ID to CPU info structureDave Hansen
The end goal here is to be able to do x86_match_cpu() and match on a specific platform ID. While it would be possible to stash this ID off somewhere or read it dynamically, that approaches would not be consistent with the other fields which can be matched. Read the platform ID and store it in cpuinfo_x86. There are lots of sites to set this new field. Place it near the place c->microcode is established since the platform ID is so closely intertwined with microcode updates. Note: This should not grow the size of 'struct cpuinfo_x86' in practice since the u8 fits next to another u8 in the structure.

2026-03-05x86/microcode: Refactor platform ID enumeration into a helperDave Hansen
Today, the only code that cares about the platform ID is the microcode update code itself. To facilitate storing the platform ID in a more generic place and using it outside of the microcode update itself, put the enumeration into a helper function. Mirror intel_get_microcode_revision()'s naming and location. But, moving away from intel_collect_cpu_info() means that the model and family information in CPUID is not readily available. Just call CPUID again. Note that the microcode header is a mask of supported platform IDs. Only stick the ID part in the helper. Leave the 1<<id part in the microcode handling. Also note that the PII is weird. It does not really have a platform ID because it doesn't even have the MSR. Just consider it to be platform ID 0. Instead of saying >=PII, say <=PII. The PII is the real oddball here being the only CPU with Linux microcode updates but no platform ID. It's worth calling it out by name. This does subtly change the sig->pf for the PII though from 0x0 to 0x1. Make up for that by ignoring sig->pf when the microcode update platform mask is 0x0.

2026-03-04KVM: VMX: Unconditionally allocate root VMCSes during boot CPU bringupSean Christopherson
Allocate the root VMCS (misleading called "vmxarea" and "kvm_area" in KVM) for each possible CPU during early boot CPU bringup, before early TDX initialization, so that TDX can eventually do VMXON on-demand (to make SEAMCALLs) without needing to load kvm-intel.ko. Allocate the pages early on, e.g. instead of trying to do so on-demand, to avoid having to juggle allocation failures at runtime. Opportunistically rename the per-CPU pointers to better reflect the role of the VMCS. Use Intel's "root VMCS" terminology, e.g. from various VMCS patents[1][2] and older SDMs, not the more opaque "VMXON region" used in recent versions of the SDM. While it's possible the VMCS passed to VMXON no longer serves as _the_ root VMCS on modern CPUs, it is still in effect a "root mode VMCS", as described in the patents.

2026-03-03x86/cpu: Defer LASS enabling until userspace comes upSohil Mehta
LASS blocks any kernel access to the lower half of the virtual address space. Unfortunately, some EFI accesses happen during boot with bit 63 cleared, which causes a #GP fault when LASS is enabled. Notably, the SetVirtualAddressMap() call can only happen in EFI physical mode. Also, EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_CODE/_DATA could be accessed even after ExitBootServices(). The boot services memory is truly freed during efi_free_boot_services() after SVAM has completed. To prevent EFI from tripping LASS, at a minimum, LASS enabling must be deferred until EFI has completely finished entering virtual mode (including freeing boot services memory). Moving setup_lass() to arch_cpu_finalize_init() would do the trick, but that would make the implementation very fragile. Something else might come in the future that would need the LASS enabling to be moved again. In general, security features such as LASS provide limited value before userspace is up. They aren't necessary during early boot while only trusted ring0 code is executing. Introduce a generic late initcall to defer activating some CPU features until userspace is enabled. For now, only move the LASS CR4 programming to this initcall. As APs are already up by the time late initcalls run, some extra steps are needed to enable LASS on all CPUs. Use a CPU hotplug callback instead of on_each_cpu() or smp_call_function(). This ensures that LASS is enabled on every CPU that is currently online as well as any future CPUs that come online later. Note, even though hotplug callbacks run with preemption enabled, cr4_set_bits() would disable interrupts while updating CR4. Keep the existing logic in place to clear the LASS feature bits early. setup_clear_cpu_cap() must be called before boot_cpu_data is finalized and alternatives are patched. Eventually, the entire setup_lass() logic can go away once the restrictions based on vsyscall emulation and EFI are removed.

2026-02-21Convert more 'alloc_obj' cases to default GFP_KERNEL argumentsLinus Torvalds
This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split over multiple lines. I only did the ones that are easy to verify the resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next line. Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial. So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed' scripts. The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want whitespace cleanup anyway. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered: they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically. For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate conversion. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

There are two other such vectors hard coded in the hypervisor, 0x2C and 0x2D for debug purposes. Fortunately, the three vectors are part of the kernel driver space and that makes it feasible to reserve them early so they are not assigned later.
