ARINC653 specification requires partition scheduling to be deterministic
and periodic over time.
However, the use of current timestamp (now) as the baseline to calculate
next_major_frame and next_switch_time introduces a delay in the start of
major frame at every period, which breaks determinism and periodicity in
partition scheduling.
For example, we observe 3.5 msec of accumulated delay at the 21st major
frame with the following configuration.
Target : qemuarm64
xen version : 4.19 (43aeacff86, x86/IRQ: constrain creator-domain-ID assertion)
dom1 : 10 msec runtime
dom2 : 10 msec runtime
$ a653_sched -p Pool-arinc dom1:10 dom2:10
0.014553536 ---x d?v? runstate_change d1v0 runnable->running //1st major
frame
0.034629712 ---x d?v? runstate_change d1v0 runnable->running //2nd major

<snip>
0.397747008 |||x d?v? runstate_change d1v0 runnable->running //20th
major frame
0.418066096 -||x d?v? runstate_change d1v0 runnable->running //21st
major frame
This is due to an inherent delta between the time value the scheduler timer
is programmed to be fired with and the time value the schedule function
is executed.
Another observation that breaks the deterministic behavior of partition
scheduling is a delayed execution of schedule(); It was called 14 msec
later than programmed.
1.530603952 ---x d?v? runstate_change d1v0 runnable->running
1.564956784 --|x d?v? runstate_change d1v0 runnable->running
Enforce the periodic behavior of partition scheduling by using the value
next_major_frame as the base to calculate the start of major frame and
the next domain switch time.
Per discussion with Nathan Studer, there are odd cases the first minor
frame can be also missed. In that scenario, iterate through the schedule
after resyncing the expected next major frame.
Per suggestion from Stewart Hildebrand, use a modulo operation to
calculate the start of next major frame.

When a running unit is about to be scheduled out due to a competing unit
with the highest remaining credit, the residual credit of the previous
unit is currently ignored in csched2_runtime() because it hasn't yet
been reinserted into the runqueue.
As a result, two equally weighted, busy units can often each be granted
almost the maximum possible runtime (i.e. consuming CSCHED2_CREDIT_INIT
in one shot) when only those two are active. In broad strokes two units
switch back and forth every 10ms (CSCHED2_MAX_TIMER). In contrast, when
more than two busy units are competing, such coarse runtime allocations
are rarely seen, since at least one active unit remains in the runqueue.
To ensure consistent behavior, have csched2_runtime() take into account
the previous unit's latest credit when it still can/wants to run.

Xen currently uses an ASID scheme where:
- ASIDs are cycled where a "TLB flush" is performed
- When ASIDs wrap around, perform a full TLB flush
- In exceptional cases, stop using ASIDs
However, the TLB control mode used only flushes the current active ASID of
the logical processor. Which mean that will supply "stale" ASIDs (not flushed),
because it hasn't been actually flushed (TLB_CTRL_FLUSH_ASID only performs a
TLB flush of the ASID set in VMCB).
This affects CPUs where flush-by-asid is available (Fam15h (2011) and later).
To fix this, always flush all ASIDs even when flush-by-asid is available.

Before CPU identification has run (and it may not have run at all e.g.
when AP bringup failed altogether), cpu_data[].phys_proc_id (which is
what cpu_to_socket() resolves to) can't really be used. The use of
cpu_to_socket()'s result as an array index in cpu_smpboot_free()
therefore needs guarding, as the function will also be invoked upon AP
bringup failure, in which case CPU identification may not have run.
Without "x86/CPU: re-work populating of cpu_data[]" [1] the issue is
less pronounced: The field starts out as zero, then has the BSP value
(likely again zero) copied into it, and it is properly invalidated only
in cpu_smpboot_free(). Still it is clearly wrong to use the BSP's socket
number here.
Making the guard work with and without the above patch applied turns out
interesting: Prior to that patch, the sole invalidation done is that in
cpu_smpboot_free(). Upon a later bringup attempt, the fields invalidated
are overwritten by the BSP values again, though. Hence compare APIC IDs,
as they cannot validly be the same once CPU identification has run.

Because of the inconsistency (sometimes even errata, and because
documentation doesn't look to be quite right about PF), best we can do
is simply take the flag values from what the processor produces, just
like we do for various other arithmetic insns. (Note also that AMD and
Intel have always been disagreeing on arithmetic flags other than ZF.)
To be both safe (against further anomalies) and consistent, extend this
to {L,T}ZCNT as well. (Emulating the two insns correctly even when
underlying hardware doesn't support it was perhaps nice, but yielded

ahead of MONITOR.
Split spec_ctrl_enter_idle() in two and allow the VERW aspect to be handled
separately. While adjusting, update a stale comment concerning MSBDS; more
issues have been mitigated using VERW since it was written.
By moving VERW earlier, it is ahead of the determination of whether to go
idle. We can't move the check on softirq_pending (for correctness reasons),

cpuidle_wakeup_mwait() is a TOCTOU race. The cpumask_and() sampling
cpuidle_mwait_flags can take a arbitrary period of time, and there's no
guarantee that the target CPUs are still in MWAIT when writing into
mwait_wakeup(cpu).
The consequence of the race is that we'll fail to IPI certain targets. Also,
there's no guarantee that mwait_idle_with_hints() will raise a TIMER_SOFTIRQ
on it's way out.
The fundamental bug is that the "in_mwait" variable needs to be in the
monitored line, and not in a separate cpuidle_mwait_flags variable, in order
to do this in a race-free way.
Arranging to fix this while keeping the old implementation is prohibitive, so
strip the current one out in order to implement the new one cleanly. In the
interim, this causes IPIs to be used unconditionally which is safe albeit
suboptimal.

Most of the patch (handling of CPUIDLE_FLAG_IBRS) is fine, but the
adjustements to mwait_idle() are not; spec_ctrl_enter_idle() does more than
just alter MSR_SPEC_CTRL.IBRS.
The only reason this doesn't need an XSA is because the unconditional
spec_ctrl_{enter,exit}_idle() in mwait_idle_with_hints() were left unaltered,
and thus the MWAIT remained properly protected.
There (would have been) two problems. In the ibrs_disable (== deep C) case:
* On entry, VERW and RSB-stuffing are architecturally skipped.
* On exit, there's a branch crossing the WRMSR which reinstates the
speculative safety for indirect branches.
All this change did was double up the expensive operations in the deep C case,

I have an idea of how to plumb this more nicely, but it requires larger

(cherry picked from commit 07d7163334)
Commit 48d32458bc ("x86, idle: add barriers to CLFLUSH workaround") was
inherited from Linux and added MFENCEs around the AAI65 errata fix.
The SDM now states:
Executions of the CLFLUSH instruction are ordered with respect to each
other and with respect to writes, locked read-modify-write instructions,
and fence instructions[1].
with footnote 1 reading:
Earlier versions of this manual specified that executions of the CLFLUSH
instruction were ordered only by the MFENCE instruction. All processors
implementing the CLFLUSH instruction also order it relative to the other
operations enumerated above.
I.e. the MFENCEs came about because of an incorrect statement in the SDM.
The Spec Update (no longer available on Intel's website) simply says "issue a
CLFLUSH", with no mention of MFENCEs.
As this erratum is specific to Intel, it's fine to remove the the MFENCEs; AMD
CPUs of a similar vintage do sport otherwise-unordered CLFLUSHs.
Move the feature bit into the BUG range (rather than FEATURE), and move the
workaround into monitor() itself.
The erratum check itself must use setup_force_cpu_cap(). It needs activating
if any CPU needs it, not if all of them need it.

(cherry picked from commit 6a039b0500)
When support was originally introduced, ebx, ecx and edx were reserved and
should have been zeroed in recalculate_misc() to avoid leaking into guests.
Since then, fields have been added into ebx. Guests can't load microcode, so
shouldn't see ucode_size, and while in principle we do want to support larger
RAP sizes in guests, virtualising this for guests depends on AMD procuding any
official documentation for ERAPS, which is long overdue and with no ETA.
This patch will cause a difference in guests on Zen5 CPUs, but as the main
ERAPS feature is hidden, guests should be ignoring the rap_size field too.

See the respective bullet point in the Caveats section of

While I'm unaware of us currently relying on the pre-gcc15 behavior,
let's still play safe and retain what unknowingly we may have been
relying upon.
According to my observations, on x86 generated code changes
- somewhere deep in modify_bars(), presumably from the struct map_data
initializer in apply_map() (a new MOVQ),
- in vpci_process_pending(), apparently again from the struct map_data

xc_pm_get_pxstat() requires the caller to allocate the pt and trans_pt
buffers but then calls xc_pm_get_max_px() to determine how big they are
(and hence how much Xen will copy into them). This is susceptible to
races if xc_pm_get_max_px() changes so avoid the problem by requiring
the caller to also pass in the size of the buffers.

For exception recovery in the stubs, the registered address for fixup is the
return address of the CALL entering the stub.
In invoke_stub(), the '.Lret%=:' label is the wrong side of the 'post'
parameter. The 'post' parameter is non-empty in cases where the arithmetic
flags of the operation need recovering.
Split the line to separate 'pre' and 'post', making it more obvious that the
return address label was in the wrong position.
However, in the case that an exception did occur, we want to skip 'post' as
it's logically part of the operation which had already failed. Therefore, add
a new skip label and use that for the exception recovery path.
This is XSA-470 / CVE-2025-27465

If set_px_pminfo is called a second time with a larger state_count than
the first call, calls to PMSTAT_get_pxstat will read beyond the end of
the pt and trans_pt buffers allocated in cpufreq_statistic_init() since
they would have been allocated with the original state_count.
Secondly, the states array leaks on each subsequent call of
set_px_pminfo.
Fix both these issues by ignoring subsequent calls to set_px_pminfo if
it completed successfully previously. Return success rather than an
error to avoid errors in the dom0 kernel log when reloading the
xen_acpi_processor module.
At the same time, fix a leak of the states array on error.

x86/pmstat: correct PMSTAT_get_pxstat buffer size checking
min(pmpt->perf.state_count, op->u.getpx.total) == op->u.getpx.total can
be expressed differently as pmpt->perf.state_count >= op->u.getpx.total.
Copying when the two are equal is fine; (partial) copying when the state
count is larger than the number of array elements that a buffer was
allocated to hold is what - as per the comment - we mean to avoid. Drop
the use of min() again, but retain its effect for the subsequent copying
from pxpt->u.pt.

x86_merge_dr6() calls.
Feed the same pending_dbg in the second time. This makes pv_inject_event()'s

For once the message printed when a BAR overlaps with a non-hole regions is
not accurate on x86. While the BAR won't be mapped by the vPCI logic, it
is quite likely overlapping with a reserved region in the memory map, and
already mapped as by default all reserved regions are identity mapped in
the p2m. Avoid printing the warning message in modify_bars(), and instead
print a more lax message in the x86 implementation of pci_check_bar() to
note the current BAR position overlaps with non-hole region(s).
Secondly, when an overlap is detected the BAR 'enabled' field is not set,
hence other vPCI code that depends on it like vPCI MSI-X handling won't
function properly, as it sees the BAR as disabled, even when memory
decoding is enabled for the device and the BAR is likely mapped in the
p2m. Change the handling of BARs that overlap non-hole regions to instead
remove any overlapped regions from the rangeset, so the resulting ranges to
map just contain the hole regions. This requires introducing a new
pci_sanitize_bar_memory() that's implemented per-arch and sanitizes the
address range to add to the p2m.
For x86 pci_sanitize_bar_memory() removes any regions present in the host
memory map, for ARM this is currently left as a dummy handler to not change
existing behavior.
Ultimately the above changes should fix the vPCI MSI-X handlers not working
correctly when the BAR that contains the MSI-X table overlaps with a
non-hole region, as then the 'enabled' BAR bit won't be set and the MSI-X
traps won't handle accesses as expected.
