If you wish to utilise a pidfd interface to refer to the current process or
thread it is rather cumbersome, requiring something like:
int pidfd = pidfd_open(getpid(), 0 or PIDFD_THREAD);
...
close(pidfd);
Or the equivalent call opening /proc/self. It is more convenient to use a
sentinel value to indicate to an interface that accepts a pidfd that we
simply wish to refer to the current process thread.
This series introduces sentinels for this purposes which can be passed as
the pidfd in this instance rather than having to establish a dummy fd for
this purpose.
It is useful to refer to both the current thread from the userland's
perspective for which we use PIDFD_SELF, and the current process from the
userland's perspective, for which we use PIDFD_SELF_PROCESS.
There is unfortunately some confusion between the kernel and userland as to
what constitutes a process - a thread from the userland perspective is a
process in userland, and a userland process is a thread group (more
specifically the thread group leader from the kernel perspective). We
therefore alias things thusly:
* PIDFD_SELF_THREAD aliased by PIDFD_SELF - use PIDTYPE_PID.
* PIDFD_SELF_THREAD_GROUP alised by PIDFD_SELF_PROCESS - use PIDTYPE_TGID.
In all of the kernel code we refer to PIDFD_SELF_THREAD and
PIDFD_SELF_THREAD_GROUP. However we expect users to use PIDFD_SELF and
PIDFD_SELF_PROCESS.
This matters for cases where, for instance, a user unshare()'s FDs or does
thread-specific signal handling and where the user would be hugely confused
if the FDs referenced or signal processed referred to the thread group
leader rather than the individual thread.
We ensure that pidfd_send_signal() and pidfd_getfd() work correctly, and
assert as much in selftests. All other interfaces except setns() will work
implicitly with this new interface, however it doesn't make sense to test
waitid(P_PIDFD, ...) as waiting on ourselves is a blocking operation.
In the case of setns() we explicitly disallow use of PIDFD_SELF* as it
doesn't make sense to obtain the namespaces of our own process, and it
would require work to implement this functionality there that would be of
no use.
We also do not provide the ability to utilise PIDFD_SELF* in ordinary fd
operations such as open() or poll(), as this would require extensive work
and be of no real use.
v3:
* Do not fput() an invalid fd as reported by kernel test bot.
* Fix unintended churn from moving variable declaration.
v2:
* Fix tests as reported by Shuah.
* Correct RFC version lore link.
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/cover.1728643714.git.lorenzo.stoakes@oracl…
Non-RFC v1:
* Removed RFC tag - there seems to be general consensus that this change is
a good idea, but perhaps some debate to be had on implementation. It
seems sensible then to move forward with the RFC flag removed.
* Introduced PIDFD_SELF_THREAD, PIDFD_SELF_THREAD_GROUP and their aliases
PIDFD_SELF and PIDFD_SELF_PROCESS respectively.
* Updated testing accordingly.

2.46.2
This patch series extends the sev_init2 and the sev_smoke test to
exercise the SEV-SNP VM launch workflow.
Primarily, it introduces the architectural defines, its support in the
SEV library and extends the tests to interact with the SEV-SNP ioctl()
wrappers.
Patch 1 - Do not advertise SNP on initialization failure
Patch 2 - SNP test for KVM_SEV_INIT2
Patch 3 - Add vmgexit helper
Patch 4 - Add SMT control interface helper
Patch 5 - Replace assert() with TEST_ASSERT_EQ()
Patch 6 - Introduce SEV+ VM type check
Patch 7 - SNP iotcl() plumbing for the SEV library
Patch 8 - Force set GUEST_MEMFD for SNP
Patch 9 - Cleanups of smoke test - Decouple policy from type
Patch 10 - SNP smoke test
The series is based on
git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm.git next
v7..v8:
* Dropped exporting the SNP initialized API from ccp to KVM. Instead
call SNP_PLATFORM_STATUS within KVM to query the initialization. (Tom)
While it may be cheaper to query sev->snp_initialized from ccp, making
the SNP platform call within KVM does away with any dependencies.
v6..v7:
https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20250221210200.244405-7-prsampat@amd.com/
Based on comments from Sean -
* Replaced FW check with sev->snp_initialized
* Dropped the patch which removes SEV+ KVM advertisement if INIT fails.
This should be now be resolved by the combination of the patches [1,2]
from Ashish.
* Change vmgexit to an inline function
* Export SMT control parsing interface to kvm_util
Note: hyperv_cpuid KST only compile tested
* Replace assert() with TEST_ASSERT_EQ() within SEV library
* Define KVM_SEV_PAGE_TYPE_INVALID for SEV call of encrypt_region()
* Parameterize encrypt_region() to include privatize_region()
* Deduplication of sev test calls between SEV,SEV-ES and SNP
* Removed FW version tests for SNP
* Included testing of SNP_POLICY_DBG
* Dropped most tags from patches that have been changed or indirectly
affected

[2] https://lore.kernel.org/all/f78ddb64087df27e7bcb1ae0ab53f55aa0804fab.173922…
v5..v6:
https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/ab433246-e97c-495b-ab67-b0cb1721fb99@amd.com/
* Rename is_sev_platform_init to sev_fw_initialized (Nikunj)
* Rename KVM CPU feature X86_FEATURE_SNP to X86_FEATURE_SEV_SNP (Nikunj)
* Collected Tags from Nikunj, Pankaj, Srikanth.
v4..v5:
https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/8e7d8172-879e-4a28-8438-343b1c386ec9@amd.com/
* Introduced a check to disable advertising support for SEV, SEV-ES
and SNP when platform initialization fails (Nikunj)
* Remove the redundant SNP check within is_sev_vm() (Nikunj)
* Cleanup of the encrypt_region flow for better readability (Nikunj)
* Refactor paths to use the canonical $(ARCH) to rebase for kvm/next
v3..v4:
https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20241114234104.128532-1-pratikrajesh.sampat@amd…
* Remove SNP FW API version check in the test and ensure the KVM
capability advertises the presence of the feature. Retain the minimum
version definitions to exercise these API versions in the smoke test
* Retained only the SNP smoke test and SNP_INIT2 test
* The SNP architectural defined merged with SNP_INIT2 test patch
* SNP shutdown merged with SNP smoke test patch
* Add SEV VM type check to abstract comparisons and reduce clutter
* Define a SNP default policy which sets bits based on the presence of
SMT
* Decouple privatization and encryption for it to be SNP agnostic
* Assert for only positive tests using vm_ioctl()
* Dropped tested-by tags
In summary - based on comments from Sean, I have primarily reduced the
scope of this patch series to focus on breaking down the SNP smoke test
patch (v3 - patch2) to first introduce SEV-SNP support and use this
interface to extend the sev_init2 and the sev_smoke test.
The rest of the v3 patchset that introduces ioctl, pre fault, fallocate
and negative tests, will be re-worked and re-introduced subsequently in
future patch series post addressing the issues discussed.
v2..v3:
https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20240905124107.6954-1-pratikrajesh.sampat@amd.c…
* Remove the assignments for the prefault and fallocate test type
enums.
* Fix error message for sev launch measure and finish.
* Collect tested-by tags [Peter, Srikanth]

2.43.0
Hello,
This patchset builds upon the code at
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230718234512.1690985-1-seanjc@google.com/T/.
This code is available at
https://github.com/googleprodkernel/linux-cc/tree/kvm-gmem-link-migrate-rfc….
In guest_mem v11, a split file/inode model was proposed, where memslot
bindings belong to the file and pages belong to the inode. This model
lends itself well to having different VMs use separate files pointing
to the same inode.
This RFC proposes an ioctl, KVM_LINK_GUEST_MEMFD, that takes a VM and
a gmem fd, and returns another gmem fd referencing a different file
and associated with VM. This RFC also includes an update to
KVM_CAP_VM_MOVE_ENC_CONTEXT_FROM to migrate memory context
(slot->arch.lpage_info and kvm->mem_attr_array) from source to
destination vm, intra-host.
Intended usage of the two ioctls:
1. Source VM’s fd is passed to destination VM via unix sockets
2. Destination VM uses new ioctl KVM_LINK_GUEST_MEMFD to link source
VM’s fd to a new fd.
3. Destination VM will pass new fds to KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION,
which will bind the new file, pointing to the same inode that the
source VM’s file points to, to memslots
4. Use KVM_CAP_VM_MOVE_ENC_CONTEXT_FROM to move kvm->mem_attr_array
and slot->arch.lpage_info to the destination VM.
5. Run the destination VM as per normal
Some other approaches considered were:
+ Using the linkat() syscall, but that requires a mount/directory for
a source fd to be linked to
+ Using the dup() syscall, but that only duplicates the fd, and both
fds point to the same file

2.49.0.rc1.451.g8f38331e32-goog
Misbehaving guests can cause bus locks to degrade the performance of
a system. Non-WB (write-back) and misaligned locked RMW (read-modify-write)
instructions are referred to as "bus locks" and require system wide
synchronization among all processors to guarantee the atomicity. The bus
locks can impose notable performance penalties for all processors within
the system.
Support for the Bus Lock Threshold is indicated by CPUID
Fn8000_000A_EDX[29] BusLockThreshold=1, the VMCB provides a Bus Lock
Threshold enable bit and an unsigned 16-bit Bus Lock Threshold count.
VMCB intercept bit
VMCB Offset Bits Function
14h 5 Intercept bus lock operations
Bus lock threshold count
VMCB Offset Bits Function
120h 15:0 Bus lock counter
During VMRUN, the bus lock threshold count is fetched and stored in an
internal count register. Prior to executing a bus lock within the guest,
the processor verifies the count in the bus lock register. If the count is
greater than zero, the processor executes the bus lock, reducing the count.
However, if the count is zero, the bus lock operation is not performed, and
instead, a Bus Lock Threshold #VMEXIT is triggered to transfer control to
the Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM).
A Bus Lock Threshold #VMEXIT is reported to the VMM with VMEXIT code 0xA5h,
VMEXIT_BUSLOCK. EXITINFO1 and EXITINFO2 are set to 0 on a VMEXIT_BUSLOCK.
On a #VMEXIT, the processor writes the current value of the Bus Lock
Threshold Counter to the VMCB.
Note: Currently, virtualizing the Bus Lock Threshold feature for L1 guest is
not supported.
More details about the Bus Lock Threshold feature can be found in AMD APM
[1].
v3 -> v4
- Incorporated Sean's review comments
- Added a preparatory patch to move linear_rip out of kvm_pio_request, so
that it can be used by the bus lock threshold patches.
- Added complete_userspace_buslock() function to reload bus_lock_counter
to '1' only if the usespace has not changed the RIP.
- Added changes to continue running bus_lock_counter accross the nested
transitions.
v2 -> v3
- Drop parch to add virt tag in /proc/cpuinfo.
- Incorporated Tom's review comments.
v1 -> v2
- Incorporated misc review comments from Sean.
- Removed bus_lock_counter module parameter.
- Set the value of bus_lock_counter to zero by default and reload the value by 1
in bus lock exit handler.
- Add documentation for the behavioral difference for KVM_EXIT_BUS_LOCK.
- Improved selftest for buslock to work on SVM and VMX.
- Rewrite the commit messages.
Patches are prepared on kvm-next/next (c9ea48bb6ee6).
Testing done:
- Tested the Bus Lock Threshold functionality on normal, SEV, SEV-ES and SEV-SNP guests.
- Tested the Bus Lock Threshold functionality on nested guests.

2.34.1
From: Yicong Yang <yangyicong(a)hisilicon.com>
Armv8.7 introduces single-copy atomic 64-byte loads and stores
instructions and its variants named under FEAT_{LS64, LS64_V}.
Add support for Armv8.7 FEAT_{LS64, LS64_V}:
- Add identifying and enabling in the cpufeature list
- Expose the support of these features to userspace through HWCAP3
and cpuinfo
- Add related hwcap test
- Handle the trap of unsupported memory (normal/uncacheable) access in a VM
A real scenario for this feature is that the userspace driver can make use of
this to implement direct WQE (workqueue entry) - a mechanism to fill WQE
directly into the hardware.
This patchset also complement with Marc's patchset v2[1] for handling LS64*
trapped if not advertised for a VM.

2.24.0
Some unit tests intentionally trigger warning backtraces by passing bad
parameters to kernel API functions. Such unit tests typically check the
return value from such calls, not the existence of the warning backtrace.
Such intentionally generated warning backtraces are neither desirable
nor useful for a number of reasons.
- They can result in overlooked real problems.
- A warning that suddenly starts to show up in unit tests needs to be
investigated and has to be marked to be ignored, for example by
adjusting filter scripts. Such filters are ad-hoc because there is
no real standard format for warnings. On top of that, such filter
scripts would require constant maintenance.
One option to address problem would be to add messages such as "expected
warning backtraces start / end here" to the kernel log. However, that
would again require filter scripts, it might result in missing real
problematic warning backtraces triggered while the test is running, and
the irrelevant backtrace(s) would still clog the kernel log.
Solve the problem by providing a means to identify and suppress specific
warning backtraces while executing test code. Support suppressing multiple
backtraces while at the same time limiting changes to generic code to the
absolute minimum. Architecture specific changes are kept at minimum by
retaining function names only if both CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE and
CONFIG_KUNIT are enabled.
The first patch of the series introduces the necessary infrastructure.
The second patch introduces support for counting suppressed backtraces.
This capability is used in patch three to implement unit tests.
Patch four documents the new API.
The next two patches add support for suppressing backtraces in drm_rect
and dev_addr_lists unit tests. These patches are intended to serve as
examples for the use of the functionality introduced with this series.
The remaining patches implement the necessary changes for all
architectures with GENERIC_BUG support.
With CONFIG_KUNIT enabled, image size increase with this series applied is
approximately 1%. The image size increase (and with it the functionality
introduced by this series) can be avoided by disabling
CONFIG_KUNIT_SUPPRESS_BACKTRACE.
This series is based on the RFC patch and subsequent discussion at
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-kselftest/patch/02546e59-1afe-4b…
and offers a more comprehensive solution of the problem discussed there.
Design note:
Function pointers are only added to the __bug_table section if both
CONFIG_KUNIT_SUPPRESS_BACKTRACE and CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE are enabled
to avoid image size increases if CONFIG_KUNIT is disabled. There would be
some benefits to adding those pointers all the time (reduced complexity,
ability to display function names in BUG/WARNING messages). That change,
if desired, can be made later.
Checkpatch note:
Remaining checkpatch errors and warnings were deliberately ignored.
Some are triggered by matching coding style or by comments interpreted
as code, others by assembler macros which are disliked by checkpatch.
Suggestions for improvements are welcome.
Changes since RFC:
- Introduced CONFIG_KUNIT_SUPPRESS_BACKTRACE
- Minor cleanups and bug fixes
- Added support for all affected architectures
- Added support for counting suppressed warnings
- Added unit tests using those counters
- Added patch to suppress warning backtraces in dev_addr_lists tests
Changes since v1:
- Rebased to v6.9-rc1
- Added Tested-by:, Acked-by:, and Reviewed-by: tags
[I retained those tags since there have been no functional changes]
- Introduced KUNIT_SUPPRESS_BACKTRACE configuration option, enabled by
default.
