tracing: Disable branch profiling in noinstr code

CONFIG_TRACE_BRANCH_PROFILING inserts a call to ftrace_likely_update()
for each use of likely() or unlikely(). That breaks noinstr rules if
the affected function is annotated as noinstr.

Disable branch profiling for files with noinstr functions. In addition
to some individual files, this also includes the entire arch/x86
subtree, as well as the kernel/entry, drivers/cpuidle, and drivers/idle
directories, all of which are noinstr-heavy.

Due to the nature of how sched binaries are built by combining multiple
.c files into one, branch profiling is disabled more broadly across the
sched code than would otherwise be needed.

This fixes many warnings like the following:

vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: do_syscall_64+0x40: call to ftrace_likely_update() leaves .noinstr.text section
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: __rdgsbase_inactive+0x33: call to ftrace_likely_update() leaves .noinstr.text section

x86/build: Use obj-y to descend into arch/x86/virt/

Commit c33621b4c5ad ("x86/virt/tdx: Wire up basic SEAMCALL functions")
introduced a new instance of core-y instead of the standardized obj-y
syntax.

X86 Makefiles descend into subdirectories of arch/x86/virt inconsistently;
into arch/x86/virt/ via core-y defined in arch/x86/Makefile, but into
arch/x86/virt/svm/ via obj-y defined in arch/x86/Kbuild.

This is problematic when you build a single object in parallel because
multiple threads attempt to build the same file.

$ make -j$(nproc) arch/x86/virt/vmx/tdx/seamcall.o
[ snip ]
AS arch/x86/virt/vmx/tdx/seamcall.o
AS arch/x86/virt/vmx/tdx/seamcall.o
fixdep: error opening file: arch/x86/virt/vmx/tdx/.seamcall.o.d: No such file or directory
make[4]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:362: arch/x86/virt/vmx/tdx/seamcall.o] Error 2

Use the obj-y syntax, as it works correctly.

x86/sev: Add SEV-SNP host initialization support

The memory integrity guarantees of SEV-SNP are enforced through a new
structure called the Reverse Map Table (RMP). The RMP is a single data
structure shared across the system that contains one entry for every 4K
page of DRAM that may be used by SEV-SNP VMs. The APM Volume 2 section
on Secure Nested Paging (SEV-SNP) details a number of steps needed to
detect/enable SEV-SNP and RMP table support on the host:

- Detect SEV-SNP support based on CPUID bit
- Initialize the RMP table memory reported by the RMP base/end MSR
registers and configure IOMMU to be compatible with RMP access
restrictions
- Set the MtrrFixDramModEn bit in SYSCFG MSR
- Set the SecureNestedPagingEn and VMPLEn bits in the SYSCFG MSR
- Configure IOMMU

RMP table entry format is non-architectural and it can vary by
processor. It is defined by the PPR document for each respective CPU
family. Restrict SNP support to CPU models/families which are compatible
with the current RMP table entry format to guard against any undefined
behavior when running on other system types. Future models/support will
handle this through an architectural mechanism to allow for broader
compatibility.

SNP host code depends on CONFIG_KVM_AMD_SEV config flag which may be
enabled even when CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT isn't set, so update the
SNP-specific IOMMU helpers used here to rely on CONFIG_KVM_AMD_SEV
instead of CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT.

kbuild: use more subdir- for visiting subdirectories while cleaning

Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.rst suggests to use "archclean" for
cleaning arch/$(SRCARCH)/boot/, but it is not a hard requirement.

Since commit d92cc4d51643 ("kbuild: require all architectures to have
arch/$(SRCARCH)/Kbuild"), we can use the "subdir- += boot" trick for
all architectures. This can take advantage of the parallel option (-j)
for "make clean".

I also cleaned up the comments in arch/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile. The "archdep"
target no longer exists.

KVM: x86: Allow Qemu/KVM to use PVH entry point

For certain applications it is desirable to rapidly boot a KVM virtual
machine. In cases where legacy hardware and software support within the
guest is not needed, Qemu should be able to boot directly into the
uncompressed Linux kernel binary without the need to run firmware.

There already exists an ABI to allow this for Xen PVH guests and the ABI
is supported by Linux and FreeBSD:

https://xenbits.xen.org/docs/unstable/misc/pvh.html

This patch enables Qemu to use that same entry point for booting KVM
guests.

Once hypervisors other than Xen start using the PVH entry point for

capable kernels without enabling CONFIG_XEN and all the code that comes
along with that. To allow that, we are moving the PVH code out of Xen and
into files sitting at a higher level in the tree.

This patch is not introducing any code or functional changes, just moving
files from one location to another.

kexec: create a new config option CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE for new syscall

Currently new system call kexec_file_load() and all the associated code
compiles if CONFIG_KEXEC=y. But new syscall also compiles purgatory
code which currently uses gcc option -mcmodel=large. This option seems
to be available only gcc 4.4 onwards.

Hiding new functionality behind a new config option will not break
existing users of old gcc. Those who wish to enable new functionality
will require new gcc. Having said that, I am trying to figure out how
can I move away from using -mcmodel=large but that can take a while.

I think there are other advantages of introducing this new config
option. As this option will be enabled only on x86_64, other arches
don't have to compile generic kexec code which will never be used. This
new code selects CRYPTO=y and CRYPTO_SHA256=y. And all other arches had
to do this for CONFIG_KEXEC. Now with introduction of new config
option, we can remove crypto dependency from other arches.

Now CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE is available only on x86_64. So whereever I had
CONFIG_X86_64 defined, I got rid of that.

For CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE, instead of doing select CRYPTO=y, I changed it to
"depends on CRYPTO=y". This should be safer as "select" is not
recursive.

purgatory: core purgatory functionality

Create a stand alone relocatable object purgatory which runs between two
kernels. This name, concept and some code has been taken from
kexec-tools. Idea is that this code runs after a crash and it runs in
minimal environment. So keep it separate from rest of the kernel and in
long term we will have to practically do no maintenance of this code.

This code also has the logic to do verify sha256 hashes of various
segments which have been loaded into memory. So first we verify that the
kernel we are jumping to is fine and has not been corrupted and make
progress only if checsums are verified.

This code also takes care of copying some memory contents to backup region.

x86, realmode: realmode.bin infrastructure

Create realmode.bin and realmode.relocs files. Piggy
pack them into relocatable object that will be included
into .init.data section of the main kernel image.

The first file includes binary image of the real-mode code.
The latter file includes all relocations. The layout of the
binary image is specified in realmode.lds.S. The makefile
generates pa_ prefixed symbols for each exported global.
These are used in 32-bit code and in realmode header to
define symbols that need to be relocated.

It is disabled by default, and must be enabled by the admin.

echo 1 >/proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable

It uses module_alloc() and module_free() to get memory in the 2GB text
kernel range since we call helpers functions from the generated code.

EAX : BPF A accumulator
EBX : BPF X accumulator
RDI : pointer to skb (first argument given to JIT function)
RBP : frame pointer (even if CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=n)
r9d : skb->len - skb->data_len (headlen)
r8 : skb->data

To get a trace of generated code, use :
