Schspa Shi recently reported[1] that some of the vgic code interacting with userspace was reading uninitialised stack memory, and although that read wasn't used any further, it prompted me to revisit this part of the code. Needless to say, this area of the kernel is pretty crufty, and shows a bunch of issues in other parts of the KVM/arm64 infrastructure. This series tries to remedy a bunch of them: - Sanitise the way we deal with sysregs from userspace: at the moment, each and every .set_user/.get_user callback has to implement its own userspace accesses (directly or indirectly). It'd be much better if that was centralised so that we can reason about it. - Enforce that all AArch64 sysregs are 64bit. Always. This was sort of implied by the code, but it took some effort to convince myself that this was actually the case. - Move the vgic-v3 sysreg userspace accessors to the userspace callbacks instead of hijacking the vcpu trap callback. This allows us to reuse the sysreg infrastructure. - Consolidate userspace accesses for both GICv2, GICv3 and common code as much as possible. - Cleanup a bunch of not-very-useful helpers, tidy up some of the code as we touch it. Overall, this is essentially a cosmetic exercise, as there is no new feature here. But I have the feeling that the result is somehow more maintainable. This has been (lightly) tested on my Synquacer, and nothing exploded. Yet. YMMV.
