Two critical fixes for v6.0.

Haitao Huang (1):

    ksgxd

[PATCH 1/2] x86/sgx: Do not fail on incomplete sanitization on premature stop of ksgxd

[Jarkko Sakkinen]

Unsanitized pages trigger WARN_ON() unconditionally, which can panic the
whole computer, if /proc/sys/kernel/panic_on_warn is set.

In sgx_init(), if misc_register() fails or misc_register() succeeds but
neither sgx_drv_init() nor sgx_vepc_init() succeeds, then ksgxd will be
prematurely stopped. This may leave unsanitized pages, which will result a
false warning.

Refine __sgx_sanitize_pages() to return:

1. Zero when the sanitization process is complete or ksgxd has been
   requested to stop.
2. The number of unsanitized pages otherwise.

Use the return value as the criteria for triggering output, and tone down
the output to pr_err() to prevent the whole system to be taken down if for
some reason sanitization process does not complete.

- Rewrote commit message.
- Do not return -ECANCELED on premature stop. Instead use zero both
  premature stop and complete sanitization.

v5:
- Add the klog dump and sysctl option to the commit message.

v4:
- Explain expectations for dirty_page_list in the function header, instead

- Improve commit message to explain the conditions better.
- Return the number of pages left dirty to ksgxd() and print warning after
  the 2nd call, if there are any.

v3:
- Remove WARN_ON().
- Tuned comments and the commit message a bit.

v2:
- Replaced WARN_ON() with optional pr_info() inside
  __sgx_sanitize_pages().
- Rewrote the commit message.
- Added the fixes tag.

I assume the intention is to print out the unsanitized SECS pages, but what is
the value of printing it? To me it doesn't provide any useful information, even
for debug.

Besides, the first call of __sgx_sanitize_pages() can return 0, due to either
kthread_should_stop() being true, or all EPC pages are EREMOVED successfully. 
So in this case kernel will print out "0 unsanitized pages\n", which doesn't
make a lot sense?

No strong opinion, but IMHO we can still just WARN() when it is driver bug:

1) There's no guarantee the driver can continue to work if it has bug;

2) WARN() can panic() the kernel if /proc/sys/kernel/panic_on_warn is set is
fine.  It's expected behaviour.  If I understand correctly, there are many
places in the kernel that uses WARN() to catch bugs.

In fact, we can even view WARN() as an advantage. For instance, if we only print
out "xx unsanitized pages" in the existing code, people may even wouldn't have
noticed this bug.

From this perspective, if you want to print out, I think you may want to make
the message more visible, that people can know it's driver bug.  Perhaps
something like "The driver has bug, please report to kernel community..", etc.

3) Changing WARN() to pr_err() conceptually isn't mandatory to fix this
particular bug.  So, it's kinda mixing things together.

But again, no strong opinion here.

How do you measure "useful"?

If for some reason there were unsanitized pages, I would at least
want to know where it ended on the first value.

Plus it does zero harm unless you explicitly turn it on.

I would split it though for a separate patch because it does not need
to be part of the stable fix and change it to:

        if (left_dirty)
                pr_debug("%lu unsanitized pages\n", left_dirty);

Using pr_debug() means it's for debugging the driver, but to me it doesn't help
on debugging the driver, so it is not useful.

Anyway, I will stop argue here.

[PATCH 2/2] x86/sgx: Handle VA page allocation failure for EAUG on PF.

[Jarkko Sakkinen]

From: Haitao Huang <haitao.huang@linux.intel.com>

VM_FAULT_NOPAGE is expected behaviour for -EBUSY failure path, when
augmenting a page, as this means that the reclaimer thread has been
triggered, and the intention is just to round-trip in ring-3, and
retry with a new page fault.
