<title>virt: vbox: Implement passing requestor info to the host for VirtualBox 6.0.x</title>

<content type='text'>
VirtualBox 6.0.x has a new feature where the guest kernel driver passes
info about the origin of the request (e.g. userspace or kernelspace) to
the hypervisor.

If we do not pass this information then when running the 6.0.x userspace
guest-additions tools on a 6.0.x host, some requests will get denied
with a VERR_VERSION_MISMATCH error, breaking vboxservice.service and
the mounting of shared folders marked to be auto-mounted.

This commit implements passing the requestor info to the host, fixing this.

<title>virt: vbox: Mark expected switch fall-through</title>

<content type='text'>
In preparation to enabling -Wimplicit-fallthrough, mark switch
cases where we are expecting to fall through.

This patch fixes the following warning:

drivers/virt/vboxguest/vboxguest_core.c: In function ‘vbg_core_ioctl’:
drivers/virt/vboxguest/vboxguest_core.c:1486:10: warning: this statement may fall through [-Wimplicit-fallthrough=]
   f32bit = true;
   ~~~~~~~^~~~~~
drivers/virt/vboxguest/vboxguest_core.c:1489:2: note: here
  case VBG_IOCTL_HGCM_CALL(0):
  ^~~~

Warning level 3 was used: -Wimplicit-fallthrough=3

Notice that, in this particular case, the code comment is modified
in accordance with what GCC is expecting to find.

This patch is part of the ongoing efforts to enable
-Wimplicit-fallthrough.

<content type='text'>
With the new CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_DEBUGGING option, we get a link
error in the vboxguest driver, when that fails to optimize out the
call to the compat handler:

drivers/virt/vboxguest/vboxguest_core.o: In function `vbg_ioctl_hgcm_call':
vboxguest_core.c:(.text+0x1f6e): undefined reference to `vbg_hgcm_call32'

Another compile-time check documents better what we want and avoids
the error.

The kzalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kcalloc(). This
patch replaces cases of:

        kzalloc(a * b, gfp)

with:
        kcalloc(a * b, gfp)

as well as handling cases of:

        kzalloc(a * b * c, gfp)

with:

        kzalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)

as it's slightly less ugly than:

        kzalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp)

This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:

        kzalloc(4 * 1024, gfp)

though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.

Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.

The Coccinelle script used for this was:

The kmalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kmalloc_array(). This
patch replaces cases of:

with:
        kmalloc_array(a * b, gfp)

as well as handling cases of:

        kmalloc(a * b * c, gfp)

        kmalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)

as it's slightly less ugly than:

        kmalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp)

This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:

        kmalloc(4 * 1024, gfp)

though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.

Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.

The tools/ directory was manually excluded, since it has its own
implementation of kmalloc().

<title>virt: vbox: Only copy_from_user the request-header once</title>

<content type='text'>
In vbg_misc_device_ioctl(), the header of the ioctl argument is copied from
the userspace pointer 'arg' and saved to the kernel object 'hdr'. Then the
'version', 'size_in', and 'size_out' fields of 'hdr' are verified.

Before this commit, after the checks a buffer for the entire request would
be allocated and then all data including the verified header would be
copied from the userspace 'arg' pointer again.

Given that the 'arg' pointer resides in userspace, a malicious userspace
process can race to change the data pointed to by 'arg' between the two
copies. By doing so, the user can bypass the verifications on the ioctl
argument.

This commit fixes this by using the already checked copy of the header
to fill the header part of the allocated buffer and only copying the
remainder of the data from userspace.

This was the only error path during probe without a message being logged
about what went wrong, this fixes this.

<title>virt: vbox: Use __get_free_pages instead of kmalloc for DMA32 memory</title>

It is not possible to get DMA32 zone memory through kmalloc, causing
the vboxguest driver to malfunction due to getting memory above
4G which the PCI device cannot handle.

This commit changes the kmalloc calls where the 4G limit matters to
using __get_free_pages() fixing vboxguest not working on x86_64 guests
with more then 4G RAM.

<content type='text'>
This is a preparation patch for fixing issues on x86_64 virtual-machines
with more then 4G of RAM, atm we pass __GFP_DMA32 to kmalloc, but kmalloc
does not honor that, so we need to switch to get_pages, which means we
will not be able to use kfree to free memory allocated with vbg_alloc_req.

While at it also remove a comment on a vbg_alloc_req call which talks
about Windows (inherited from the vbox upstream cross-platform code).

Move the declarations of functions from vboxguest_utils.c which are only
meant for vboxguest internal use from include/linux/vbox_utils.h to
drivers/virt/vboxguest/vboxguest_core.h.
