Commit 01dc9262ff upstream.
It recently became apparent that the ARMv8 architecture has interesting
rules regarding attributes being used when fetching instructions
if the MMU is off at Stage-1.
In this situation, the CPU is allowed to fetch from the PoC and
allocate into the I-cache (unless the memory is mapped with
the XN attribute at Stage-2).
If we transpose this to vcpus sharing a single physical CPU,
it is possible for a vcpu running with its MMU off to influence
another vcpu running with its MMU on, as the latter is expected to
fetch from the PoU (and self-patching code doesn't flush below that
level).
In order to solve this, reuse the vcpu-private TLB invalidation
code to apply the same policy to the I-cache, nuking it every time
the vcpu runs on a physical CPU that ran another vcpu of the same
VM in the past.
This involve renaming __kvm_tlb_flush_local_vmid() to
__kvm_flush_cpu_context(), and inserting a local i-cache invalidation
there.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
