This large commit contains the initial support for TDX in KVM. All x86
parts enable the host-side hypercalls that KVM uses to talk to the TDX
module, a software component that runs in a special CPU mode called SEAM
(Secure Arbitration Mode).
The series is in turn split into multiple sub-series, each with a separate
merge commit:
- Initialization: basic setup for using the TDX module from KVM, plus
ioctls to create TDX VMs and vCPUs.
- MMU: in TDX, private and shared halves of the address space are mapped by
different EPT roots, and the private half is managed by the TDX module.
Using the support that was added to the generic MMU code in 6.14,
add support for TDX's secure page tables to the Intel side of KVM.
Generic KVM code takes care of maintaining a mirror of the secure page
tables so that they can be queried efficiently, and ensuring that changes
are applied to both the mirror and the secure EPT.
- vCPU enter/exit: implement the callbacks that handle the entry of a TDX
vCPU (via the SEAMCALL TDH.VP.ENTER) and the corresponding save/restore
of host state.
- Userspace exits: introduce support for guest TDVMCALLs that KVM forwards to
userspace. These correspond to the usual KVM_EXIT_* "heavyweight vmexits"
but are triggered through a different mechanism, similar to VMGEXIT for
SEV-ES and SEV-SNP.
- Interrupt handling: support for virtual interrupt injection as well as
handling VM-Exits that are caused by vectored events. Exclusive to
TDX are machine-check SMIs, which the kernel already knows how to
handle through the kernel machine check handler (commit 7911f145de5f,
"x86/mce: Implement recovery for errors in TDX/SEAM non-root mode")
- Loose ends: handling of the remaining exits from the TDX module, including
EPT violation/misconfig and several TDVMCALL leaves that are handled in
the kernel (CPUID, HLT, RDMSR/WRMSR, GetTdVmCallInfo); plus returning
an error or ignoring operations that are not supported by TDX guests

Detect SEPT violations that occur when an SEPT entry is in PENDING state
while the TD is configured not to receive #VE on SEPT violations.
A TD guest can be configured not to receive #VE by setting SEPT_VE_DISABLE
to 1 in tdh_mng_init() or modifying pending_ve_disable to 1 in TDCS when
flexible_pending_ve is permitted. In such cases, the TDX module will not
inject #VE into the TD upon encountering an EPT violation caused by an SEPT
entry in the PENDING state. Instead, TDX module will exit to VMM and set
extended exit qualification type to PENDING_EPT_VIOLATION and exit
qualification bit 6:3 to 0.
Since #VE will not be injected to such TDs, they are not able to be
notified to accept a GPA. TD accessing before accepting a private GPA
is regarded as an error within the guest.
Detect such guest error by inspecting the (extended) exit qualification
bits and make such VM dead.

TDX uses two EPT pointers, one for the private half of the GPA space and
one for the shared half. The private half uses the normal EPT_POINTER vmcs
field, which is managed in a special way by the TDX module. For TDX, KVM is
not allowed to operate on it directly. The shared half uses a new
SHARED_EPT_POINTER field and will be managed by the conventional MMU
management operations that operate directly on the EPT root. This means for
TDX the .load_mmu_pgd() operation will need to know to use the
SHARED_EPT_POINTER field instead of the normal one. Add a new wrapper in
x86 ops for load_mmu_pgd() that either directs the write to the existing
vmx implementation or a TDX one.
tdx_load_mmu_pgd() is so much simpler than vmx_load_mmu_pgd() since for the
TDX mode of operation, EPT will always be used and KVM does not need to be
involved in virtualization of CR3 behavior. So tdx_load_mmu_pgd() can
simply write to SHARED_EPT_POINTER.

Define independent macros for the RWX protection bits that are enumerated
via EXIT_QUALIFICATION for EPT Violations, and tie them to the RWX bits in
EPT entries via compile-time asserts. Piggybacking the EPTE defines works
for now, but it creates holes in the EPT_VIOLATION_xxx macros and will
cause headaches if/when KVM emulates Mode-Based Execution (MBEC), or any
other features that introduces additional protection information.
Opportunistically rename EPT_VIOLATION_RWX_MASK to EPT_VIOLATION_PROT_MASK
so that it doesn't become stale if/when MBEC support is added.
No functional change intended.

in MSR_IA32_VMX_BASIC, i.e. when synthesizing KVM's supported BASIC MSR
value, and delete the now unused VMCS size and memtype shift macros.
For a variety of reasons, KVM has shifted (pun intended) to using helpers
to *get* information from the VMX MSRs, as opposed to defined MASK and
SHIFT macros for direct use. Provide a similar helper for the nested VMX
code, which needs to *set* information, so that KVM isn't left with a mix
of SHIFT macros and dedicated helpers.

Add defines for the architectural memory types that can be shoved into
various MSRs and registers, e.g. MTRRs, PAT, VMX capabilities MSRs, EPTPs,
etc. While most MSRs/registers support only a subset of all memory types,
the values themselves are architectural and identical across all users.
Leave the goofy MTRR_TYPE_* definitions as-is since they are in a uapi
header, but add compile-time assertions to connect the dots (and sanity
check that the msr-index.h values didn't get fat-fingered).
Keep the VMX_EPTP_MT_* defines so that it's slightly more obvious that the
EPTP holds a single memory type in 3 of its 64 bits; those bits just
happen to be 2:0, i.e. don't need to be shifted.

There are cases that malicious virtual machines can cause CPU stuck (due
to event windows don't open up), e.g., infinite loop in microcode when
nested #AC (CVE-2015-5307). No event window means no event (NMI, SMI and
IRQ) can be delivered. It leads the CPU to be unavailable to host or
other VMs.
VMM can enable notify VM exit that a VM exit generated if no event
window occurs in VM non-root mode for a specified amount of time (notify
window).
Feature enabling:
- The new vmcs field SECONDARY_EXEC_NOTIFY_VM_EXITING is introduced to
enable this feature. VMM can set NOTIFY_WINDOW vmcs field to adjust
the expected notify window.
- Add a new KVM capability KVM_CAP_X86_NOTIFY_VMEXIT so that user space
can query and enable this feature in per-VM scope. The argument is a
64bit value: bits 63:32 are used for notify window, and bits 31:0 are
for flags. Current supported flags:
- KVM_X86_NOTIFY_VMEXIT_ENABLED: enable the feature with the notify
window provided.
- KVM_X86_NOTIFY_VMEXIT_USER: exit to userspace once the exits happen.
- It's safe to even set notify window to zero since an internal hardware
threshold is added to vmcs.notify_window.
VM exit handling:
- Introduce a vcpu state notify_window_exits to records the count of
notify VM exits and expose it through the debugfs.
- Notify VM exit can happen incident to delivery of a vector event.
Allow it in KVM.
- Exit to userspace unconditionally for handling when VM_CONTEXT_INVALID
bit is set.
Nested handling
- Nested notify VM exits are not supported yet. Keep the same notify
window control in vmcs02 as vmcs01, so that L1 can't escape the
restriction of notify VM exits through launching L2 VM.
Notify VM exit is defined in latest Intel Architecture Instruction Set
Extensions Programming Reference, chapter 9.2.

With IPI virtualization enabled, the processor emulates writes to
APIC registers that would send IPIs. The processor sets the bit
corresponding to the vector in target vCPU's PIR and may send a
notification (IPI) specified by NDST and NV fields in target vCPU's
Posted-Interrupt Descriptor (PID). It is similar to what IOMMU
engine does when dealing with posted interrupt from devices.
A PID-pointer table is used by the processor to locate the PID of a
vCPU with the vCPU's APIC ID. The table size depends on maximum APIC
ID assigned for current VM session from userspace. Allocating memory
for PID-pointer table is deferred to vCPU creation, because irqchip
mode and VM-scope maximum APIC ID is settled at that point. KVM can
skip PID-pointer table allocation if !irqchip_in_kernel().
Like VT-d PI, if a vCPU goes to blocked state, VMM needs to switch its
notification vector to wakeup vector. This can ensure that when an IPI
for blocked vCPUs arrives, VMM can get control and wake up blocked
vCPUs. And if a VCPU is preempted, its posted interrupt notification
is suppressed.
Note that IPI virtualization can only virualize physical-addressing,
flat mode, unicast IPIs. Sending other IPIs would still cause a
trap-like APIC-write VM-exit and need to be handled by VMM.

Add support for handling VM-Exits that originate from a guest SGX
enclave. In SGX, an "enclave" is a new CPL3-only execution environment,
wherein the CPU and memory state is protected by hardware to make the
state inaccesible to code running outside of the enclave. When exiting
an enclave due to an asynchronous event (from the perspective of the
enclave), e.g. exceptions, interrupts, and VM-Exits, the enclave's state
is automatically saved and scrubbed (the CPU loads synthetic state), and
then reloaded when re-entering the enclave. E.g. after an instruction
based VM-Exit from an enclave, vmcs.GUEST_RIP will not contain the RIP
of the enclave instruction that trigered VM-Exit, but will instead point
to a RIP in the enclave's untrusted runtime (the guest userspace code
that coordinates entry/exit to/from the enclave).
To help a VMM recognize and handle exits from enclaves, SGX adds bits to
existing VMCS fields, VM_EXIT_REASON.VMX_EXIT_REASON_FROM_ENCLAVE and
GUEST_INTERRUPTIBILITY_INFO.GUEST_INTR_STATE_ENCLAVE_INTR. Define the
new architectural bits, and add a boolean to struct vcpu_vmx to cache
VMX_EXIT_REASON_FROM_ENCLAVE. Clear the bit in exit_reason so that
checks against exit_reason do not need to account for SGX, e.g.
"if (exit_reason == EXIT_REASON_EXCEPTION_NMI)" continues to work.
KVM is a largely a passive observer of the new bits, e.g. KVM needs to
account for the bits when propagating information to a nested VMM, but
otherwise doesn't need to act differently for the majority of VM-Exits
from enclaves.
The one scenario that is directly impacted is emulation, which is for
all intents and purposes impossible[1] since KVM does not have access to
the RIP or instruction stream that triggered the VM-Exit. The inability
to emulate is a non-issue for KVM, as most instructions that might
trigger VM-Exit unconditionally #UD in an enclave (before the VM-Exit
check. For the few instruction that conditionally #UD, KVM either never
sets the exiting control, e.g. PAUSE_EXITING[2], or sets it if and only
if the feature is not exposed to the guest in order to inject a #UD,
e.g. RDRAND_EXITING.
But, because it is still possible for a guest to trigger emulation,
e.g. MMIO, inject a #UD if KVM ever attempts emulation after a VM-Exit
from an enclave. This is architecturally accurate for instruction
VM-Exits, and for MMIO it's the least bad choice, e.g. it's preferable
to killing the VM. In practice, only broken or particularly stupid
guests should ever encounter this behavior.
Add a WARN in skip_emulated_instruction to detect any attempt to
modify the guest's RIP during an SGX enclave VM-Exit as all such flows
should either be unreachable or must handle exits from enclaves before
getting to skip_emulated_instruction.
[1] Impossible for all practical purposes. Not truly impossible
since KVM could implement some form of para-virtualization scheme.
[2] PAUSE_LOOP_EXITING only affects CPL0 and enclaves exist only at
CPL3, so we also don't need to worry about that interaction.

Virtual Machine can exploit bus locks to degrade the performance of
system. Bus lock can be caused by split locked access to writeback(WB)
memory or by using locks on uncacheable(UC) memory. The bus lock is
typically >1000 cycles slower than an atomic operation within a cache
line. It also disrupts performance on other cores (which must wait for
the bus lock to be released before their memory operations can
complete).
To address the threat, bus lock VM exit is introduced to notify the VMM
when a bus lock was acquired, allowing it to enforce throttling or other
policy based mitigations.
A VMM can enable VM exit due to bus locks by setting a new "Bus Lock
Detection" VM-execution control(bit 30 of Secondary Processor-based VM
execution controls). If delivery of this VM exit was preempted by a
higher priority VM exit (e.g. EPT misconfiguration, EPT violation, APIC
access VM exit, APIC write VM exit, exception bitmap exiting), bit 26 of
exit reason in vmcs field is set to 1.
In current implementation, the KVM exposes this capability through
KVM_CAP_X86_BUS_LOCK_EXIT. The user can get the supported mode bitmap
(i.e. off and exit) and enable it explicitly (disabled by default). If
bus locks in guest are detected by KVM, exit to user space even when
current exit reason is handled by KVM internally. Set a new field
KVM_RUN_BUS_LOCK in vcpu->run->flags to inform the user space that there
is a bus lock detected in guest.
Document for Bus Lock VM exit is now available at the latest "Intel
Architecture Instruction Set Extensions Programming Reference".

Background: We have a lightweight HV, it needs INIT-VMExit and
SIPI-VMExit to wake-up APs for guests since it do not monitor
the Local APIC. But currently virtual wait-for-SIPI(WFS) state
is not supported in nVMX, so when running on top of KVM, the L1
HV cannot receive the INIT-VMExit and SIPI-VMExit which cause
the L2 guest cannot wake up the APs.
According to Intel SDM Chapter 25.2 Other Causes of VM Exits,
SIPIs cause VM exits when a logical processor is in
wait-for-SIPI state.
In this patch:
1. introduce SIPI exit reason,
2. introduce wait-for-SIPI state for nVMX,
3. advertise wait-for-SIPI support to guest.
When L1 hypervisor is not monitoring Local APIC, L0 need to emulate
INIT-VMExit and SIPI-VMExit to L1 to emulate INIT-SIPI-SIPI for
L2. L2 LAPIC write would be traped by L0 Hypervisor(KVM), L0 should
emulate the INIT/SIPI vmexit to L1 hypervisor to set proper state
for L2's vcpu state.
Handle procdure:
Source vCPU:
L2 write LAPIC.ICR(INIT).
L0 trap LAPIC.ICR write(INIT): inject a latched INIT event to target
vCPU.
Target vCPU:
L0 emulate an INIT VMExit to L1 if is guest mode.
L1 set guest VMCS, guest_activity_state=WAIT_SIPI, vmresume.
L0 set vcpu.mp_state to INIT_RECEIVED if (vmcs12.guest_activity_state
== WAIT_SIPI).
Source vCPU:
L2 write LAPIC.ICR(SIPI).
L0 trap LAPIC.ICR write(INIT): inject a latched SIPI event to traget
vCPU.
Target vCPU:
L0 emulate an SIPI VMExit to L1 if (vcpu.mp_state == INIT_RECEIVED).
L1 set CS:IP, guest_activity_state=ACTIVE, vmresume.
L0 resume to L2.
L2 start-up.

Use an enum for passing around the failure code for a failed VM-Enter
that results in VM-Exit to provide a level of indirection from the final
resting place of the failure code, vmcs.EXIT_QUALIFICATION. The exit
qualification field is an unsigned long, e.g. passing around
'u32 exit_qual' throws up red flags as it suggests KVM may be dropping
bits when reporting errors to L1. This is a red herring because the
only defined failure codes are 0, 2, 3, and 4, i.e. don't come remotely
close to overflowing a u32.
Setting vmcs.EXIT_QUALIFICATION on entry failure is further complicated
by the MSR load list, which returns the (1-based) entry that failed, and
the number of MSRs to load is a 32-bit VMCS field. At first blush, it
would appear that overflowing a u32 is possible, but the number of MSRs
that can be loaded is hardcapped at 4096 (limited by MSR_IA32_VMX_MISC).
In other words, there are two completely disparate types of data that
eventually get stuffed into vmcs.EXIT_QUALIFICATION, neither of which is
an 'unsigned long' in nature. This was presumably the reasoning for
switching to 'u32' when the related code was refactored in commit
ca0bde28f2ed6 ("kvm: nVMX: Split VMCS checks from nested_vmx_run()").
Using an enum for the failure code addresses the technically-possible-
but-will-never-happen scenario where Intel defines a failure code that
doesn't fit in a 32-bit integer. The enum variables and values will
either be automatically sized (gcc 5.4 behavior) or be subjected to some
combination of truncation. The former case will simply work, while the
latter will trigger a compile-time warning unless the compiler is being
particularly unhelpful.
Separating the failure code from the failed MSR entry allows for
disassociating both from vmcs.EXIT_QUALIFICATION, which avoids the
conundrum where KVM has to choose between 'u32 exit_qual' and tracking
values as 'unsigned long' that have no business being tracked as such.
To cement the split, set vmcs12->exit_qualification directly from the
entry error code or failed MSR index instead of bouncing through a local
variable.
Opportunistically rename the variables in load_vmcs12_host_state() and
vmx_set_nested_state() to call out that they're ignored, set exit_reason
on demand on nested VM-Enter failure, and add a comment in
nested_vmx_load_msr() to call out that returning 'i + 1' can't wrap.
No functional change intended.

Allowing an unlimited number of MSRs to be specified via the VMX
load/store MSR lists (e.g., vm-entry MSR load list) is bad for two
reasons. First, a guest can specify an unreasonable number of MSRs,
forcing KVM to process all of them in software. Second, the SDM bounds
the number of MSRs allowed to be packed into the atomic switch MSR lists.
Quoting the "Miscellaneous Data" section in the "VMX Capability
Reporting Facility" appendix:
"Bits 27:25 is used to compute the recommended maximum number of MSRs
that should appear in the VM-exit MSR-store list, the VM-exit MSR-load
list, or the VM-entry MSR-load list. Specifically, if the value bits
27:25 of IA32_VMX_MISC is N, then 512 * (N + 1) is the recommended
maximum number of MSRs to be included in each list. If the limit is
exceeded, undefined processor behavior may result (including a machine
check during the VMX transition)."
Because KVM needs to protect itself and can't model "undefined processor
behavior", arbitrarily force a VM-entry to fail due to MSR loading when
the MSR load list is too large. Similarly, trigger an abort during a VM
exit that encounters an MSR load list or MSR store list that is too large.
The MSR list size is intentionally not pre-checked so as to maintain
compatibility with hardware inasmuch as possible.
Test these new checks with the kvm-unit-test "x86: nvmx: test max atomic
switch MSRs".

UMONITOR, UMWAIT and TPAUSE are a set of user wait instructions.
This patch adds support for user wait instructions in KVM. Availability
of the user wait instructions is indicated by the presence of the CPUID
feature flag WAITPKG CPUID.0x07.0x0:ECX[5]. User wait instructions may
be executed at any privilege level, and use 32bit IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL MSR
to set the maximum time.
The behavior of user wait instructions in VMX non-root operation is
determined first by the setting of the "enable user wait and pause"
secondary processor-based VM-execution control bit 26.
If the VM-execution control is 0, UMONITOR/UMWAIT/TPAUSE cause
an invalid-opcode exception (#UD).
If the VM-execution control is 1, treatment is based on the
setting of the “RDTSC exiting†VM-execution control. Because KVM never
enables RDTSC exiting, if the instruction causes a delay, the amount of
time delayed is called here the physical delay. The physical delay is
first computed by determining the virtual delay. If
IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL[31:2] is zero, the virtual delay is the value in
EDX:EAX minus the value that RDTSC would return; if
IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL[31:2] is not zero, the virtual delay is the minimum
of that difference and AND(IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL,FFFFFFFCH).
Because umwait and tpause can put a (psysical) CPU into a power saving
state, by default we dont't expose it to kvm and enable it only when
guest CPUID has it.
Detailed information about user wait instructions can be found in the
latest Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer's Manual.

Intel Processor Trace virtualization can be work in one
of 2 possible modes:
a. System-Wide mode (default):
When the host configures Intel PT to collect trace packets
of the entire system, it can leave the relevant VMX controls
clear to allow VMX-specific packets to provide information
across VMX transitions.
KVM guest will not aware this feature in this mode and both
host and KVM guest trace will output to host buffer.
b. Host-Guest mode:
Host can configure trace-packet generation while in
VMX non-root operation for guests and root operation
for native executing normally.
Intel PT will be exposed to KVM guest in this mode, and
the trace output to respective buffer of host and guest.
In this mode, tht status of PT will be saved and disabled
before VM-entry and restored after VM-exit if trace
a virtual machine.

Recently the minimum required version of binutils was changed to 2.20,
which supports all VMX instruction mnemonics. The patch removes
all .byte #defines and uses real instruction mnemonics instead.
The compiler is now able to pass memory operand to the instruction,
so there is no need for memory clobber anymore. Also, the compiler
adds CC register clobber automatically to all extended asm clauses,
so the patch also removes explicit CC clobber.
The immediate benefit of the patch is removal of many unnecesary
register moves, resulting in 1434 saved bytes in vmx.o:
text data bss dec hex filename
151257 18246 8500 178003 2b753 vmx.o
152691 18246 8500 179437 2bced vmx-old.o
Some examples of improvement include removal of unneeded moves
of %rsp to %rax in front of invept and invvpid instructions:
a57e: b9 01 00 00 00 mov $0x1,%ecx
a583: 48 89 04 24 mov %rax,(%rsp)
a587: 48 89 e0 mov %rsp,%rax
a58a: 48 c7 44 24 08 00 00 movq $0x0,0x8(%rsp)
a591: 00 00

a46c: 00 00
a46e: 66 0f 38 80 04 24 invept (%rsp),%rax

Hardware support for basic SGX virtualization adds a new execution

reason (ENCLS), that enables a VMM to intercept specific ENCLS leaf
functions, e.g. to inject faults when the VMM isn't exposing SGX to
a VM. When ENCLS_EXITING is enabled, the VMM can set/clear bits in
the bitmap to intercept/allow ENCLS leaf functions in non-root, e.g.
setting bit 2 in the ENCLS_EXITING_BITMAP will cause ENCLS[EINIT]
to VMExit(ENCLS).

This patch extends the checks done prior to a nested VM entry.
Specifically, it extends the check_vmentry_prereqs function with checks
for fields relevant to the VM-entry event injection information, as
described in the Intel SDM, volume 3.
This patch is motivated by a syzkaller bug, where a bad VM-entry
interruption information field is generated in the VMCS02, which causes
the nested VM launch to fail. Then, KVM fails to resume L1.
While KVM should be improved to correctly resume L1 execution after a
failed nested launch, this change is justified because the existing code
to resume L1 is flaky/ad-hoc and the test coverage for resuming L1 is
sparse.

The undocumented 'icebp' instruction (aka 'int1') works pretty much like
'int3' in the absense of in-circuit probing equipment (except,
obviously, that it raises #DB instead of raising #BP), and is used by
some validation test-suites as such.
But Andy Lutomirski noticed that his test suite acted differently in kvm
than on bare hardware.
The reason is that kvm used an inexact test for the icebp instruction:
it just assumed that an all-zero VM exit qualification value meant that
the VM exit was due to icebp.
That is not unlike the guess that do_debug() does for the actual
exception handling case, but it's purely a heuristic, not an absolute
rule. do_debug() does it because it wants to ascribe _some_ reasons to
the #DB that happened, and an empty %dr6 value means that 'icebp' is the
most likely casue and we have no better information.
But kvm can just do it right, because unlike the do_debug() case, kvm
actually sees the real reason for the #DB in the VM-exit interruption
information field.
So instead of relying on an inexact heuristic, just use the actual VM
exit information that says "it was 'icebp'".
Right now the 'icebp' instruction isn't technically documented by Intel,
but that will hopefully change. The special "privileged software
exception" information _is_ actually mentioned in the Intel SDM, even
though the cause of it isn't enumerated.
