2024-03-18KVM: SEV: fix compat ABI for KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_OPPaolo Bonzini
The data structs for KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_OP have different sizes for 32- and 64-bit userspace, but they do not make any attempt to convert from one ABI to the other when 32-bit userspace is running on 64-bit kernels. This configuration never worked, and SEV is only for 64-bit kernels so we're not breaking ABI on 32-bit kernels. Fix this by adding the appropriate padding; no functional change intended for 64-bit userspace.

2024-02-22KVM: x86/xen: allow vcpu_info to be mapped by fixed HVAPaul Durrant
If the guest does not explicitly set the GPA of vcpu_info structure in memory then, for guests with 32 vCPUs or fewer, the vcpu_info embedded in the shared_info page may be used. As described in a previous commit, the shared_info page is an overlay at a fixed HVA within the VMM, so in this case it also more optimal to activate the vcpu_info cache with a fixed HVA to avoid unnecessary invalidation if the guest memory layout is modified.

2024-02-22KVM: x86/xen: allow shared_info to be mapped by fixed HVAPaul Durrant
The shared_info page is not guest memory as such. It is a dedicated page allocated by the VMM and overlaid onto guest memory in a GFN chosen by the guest and specified in the XENMEM_add_to_physmap hypercall. The guest may even request that shared_info be moved from one GFN to another by re-issuing that hypercall, but the HVA is never going to change. Because the shared_info page is an overlay the memory slots need to be updated in response to the hypercall. However, memory slot adjustment is not atomic and, whilst all vCPUs are paused, there is still the possibility that events may be delivered (which requires the shared_info page to be updated) whilst the shared_info GPA is absent. The HVA is never absent though, so it makes much more sense to use that as the basis for the kernel's mapping. Hence add a new KVM_XEN_ATTR_TYPE_SHARED_INFO_HVA attribute type for this purpose and a KVM_XEN_HVM_CONFIG_SHARED_INFO_HVA flag to advertize its availability. Don't actually advertize it yet though. That will be done in a subsequent patch, which will also add tests for the new attribute type. Also update the KVM API documentation with the new attribute and also fix it up to consistently refer to 'shared_info' (with the underscore).

2024-02-08KVM: define __KVM_HAVE_GUEST_DEBUG unconditionallyPaolo Bonzini
Since all architectures (for historical reasons) have to define struct kvm_guest_debug_arch, and since userspace has to check KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION(KVM_CAP_SET_GUEST_DEBUG) anyway, there is no advantage in masking the capability #define itself.

2024-02-08kvm: replace __KVM_HAVE_READONLY_MEM with Kconfig symbolPaolo Bonzini
KVM uses __KVM_HAVE_* symbols in the architecture-dependent uapi/asm/kvm.h to mask unused definitions in include/uapi/linux/kvm.h. __KVM_HAVE_READONLY_MEM however was nothing but a misguided attempt to define KVM_CAP_READONLY_MEM only on architectures where KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION(KVM_CAP_READONLY_MEM) could possibly return nonzero. This however does not make sense, and it prevented userspace from supporting this architecture-independent feature without recompilation. Therefore, these days __KVM_HAVE_READONLY_MEM does not mask anything and is only used in virt/kvm/kvm_main.c. Userspace does not need to test it and there should be no need for it to exist. Remove it and replace it with a Kconfig symbol within Linux source code. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

2023-11-14KVM: x86: Add support for "protected VMs" that can utilize private memorySean Christopherson
Add a new x86 VM type, KVM_X86_SW_PROTECTED_VM, to serve as a development and testing vehicle for Confidential (CoCo) VMs, and potentially to even become a "real" product in the distant future, e.g. a la pKVM. The private memory support in KVM x86 is aimed at AMD's SEV-SNP and Intel's TDX, but those technologies are extremely complex (understatement), difficult to debug, don't support running as nested guests, and require hardware that's isn't universally accessible. I.e. relying SEV-SNP or TDX for maintaining guest private memory isn't a realistic option. At the very least, KVM_X86_SW_PROTECTED_VM will enable a variety of selftests for guest_memfd and private memory support without requiring unique hardware.

Since other architectures are looking to add support for KVM_EXIT_HYPERCALL, now is probably a good time to clean it up. Redefine the field (and the remaining padding) as a set of flags.

2023-02-15Merge tag 'kvm-x86-pmu-6.3' of https://github.com/kvm-x86/linux into HEADPaolo Bonzini
KVM x86 PMU changes for 6.3: - Add support for created masked events for the PMU filter to allow userspace to heavily restrict what events the guest can use without needing to create an absurd number of events - Clean up KVM's handling of "PMU MSRs to save", especially when vPMU support is disabled - Add PEBS support for Intel SPR
2023-01-24KVM: x86/pmu: Introduce masked events to the pmu event filterAaron Lewis
When building a list of filter events, it can sometimes be a challenge to fit all the events needed to adequately restrict the guest into the limited space available in the pmu event filter. This stems from the fact that the pmu event filter requires each event (i.e. event select + unit mask) be listed, when the intention might be to restrict the event select all together, regardless of it's unit mask. Instead of increasing the number of filter events in the pmu event filter, add a new encoding that is able to do a more generalized match on the unit mask. Introduce masked events as another encoding the pmu event filter understands. Masked events has the fields: mask, match, and exclude. When filtering based on these events, the mask is applied to the guest's unit mask to see if it matches the match value (i.e. umask & mask == match). The exclude bit can then be used to exclude events from that match. E.g. for a given event select, if it's easier to say which unit mask values shouldn't be filtered, a masked event can be set up to match all possible unit mask values, then another masked event can be set up to match the unit mask values that shouldn't be filtered. Userspace can query to see if this feature exists by looking for the capability, KVM_CAP_PMU_EVENT_MASKED_EVENTS. This feature is enabled by setting the flags field in the pmu event filter to KVM_PMU_EVENT_FLAG_MASKED_EVENTS. Events can be encoded by using KVM_PMU_ENCODE_MASKED_ENTRY(). It is an error to have a bit set outside the valid bits for a masked event, and calls to KVM_SET_PMU_EVENT_FILTER will return -EINVAL in such cases, including the high bits of the event select (35:32) if called on Intel. With these updates the filter matching code has been updated to match on a common event. Masked events were flexible enough to handle both event types, so they were used as the common event. This changes how guest events get filtered because regardless of the type of event used in the uAPI, they will be converted to masked events. Because of this there could be a slight performance hit because instead of matching the filter event with a lookup on event select + unit mask, it does a lookup on event select then walks the unit masks to find the match. This shouldn't be a big problem because I would expect the set of common event selects to be small, and if they aren't the set can likely be reduced by using masked events to generalize the unit mask. Using one type of event when filtering guest events allows for a common code path to be used.

Add a quirk for KVM's behavior of emulating intercepted MONITOR/MWAIT instructions a NOPs regardless of whether or not they are supported in guest CPUID. KVM's current behavior was likely motiviated by a certain fruity operating system that expects MONITOR/MWAIT to be supported unconditionally and blindly executes MONITOR/MWAIT without first checking CPUID. And because KVM does NOT advertise MONITOR/MWAIT to userspace, that's effectively the default setup for any VMM that regurgitates KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID to KVM_SET_CPUID2. Note, this quirk interacts with KVM_X86_QUIRK_MISC_ENABLE_NO_MWAIT. The behavior is actually desirable, as userspace VMMs that want to unconditionally hide MONITOR/MWAIT from the guest can leave the MISC_ENABLE quirk enabled.

KVM handles the VMCALL/VMMCALL instructions very strangely. Even though both of these instructions really should #UD when executed on the wrong vendor's hardware (i.e. VMCALL on SVM, VMMCALL on VMX), KVM replaces the guest's instruction with the appropriate instruction for the vendor. Nonetheless, older guest kernels without commit c1118b3602c2 ("x86: kvm: use alternatives for VMCALL vs. VMMCALL if kernel text is read-only") do not patch in the appropriate instruction using alternatives, likely motivating KVM's intervention.

2022-01-28KVM: x86: add system attribute to retrieve full set of supported xsave statesPaolo Bonzini
Because KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID is meant to be passed (by simple-minded VMMs) to KVM_SET_CPUID2, it cannot include any dynamic xsave states that have not been enabled. Probing those, for example so that they can be passed to ARCH_REQ_XCOMP_GUEST_PERM, requires a new ioctl or arch_prctl. The latter is in fact worse, even though that is what the rest of the API uses, because it would require supported_xcr0 to be moved from the KVM module to the kernel just for this use. In addition, the value would be nonsensical (or an error would have to be returned) until the KVM module is loaded in. Therefore, to limit the growth of system ioctls, add a /dev/kvm variant of KVM_{GET,HAS}_DEVICE_ATTR, and implement it in x86 with just one group (0) and attribute (KVM_X86_XCOMP_GUEST_SUPP).

This doesn't work when dynamic xfeatures (e.g. AMX) are exposed to the guest as they require a larger buffer size. Introduce a new capability (KVM_CAP_XSAVE2). Userspace VMM gets the required xstate buffer size via KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION(KVM_CAP_XSAVE2). KVM_SET_XSAVE is extended to work with both legacy and new capabilities by doing properly-sized memdup_user() based on the guest fpu container. KVM_GET_XSAVE is kept for backward-compatible reason.

To date, VMM-directed TSC synchronization and migration has been a bit messy. KVM has some baked-in heuristics around TSC writes to infer if the VMM is attempting to synchronize. This is problematic, as it depends on host userspace writing to the guest's TSC within 1 second of the last write. A much cleaner approach to configuring the guest's views of the TSC is to simply migrate the TSC offset for every vCPU. Offsets are idempotent, and thus not subject to change depending on when the VMM actually reads/writes values from/to KVM. The VMM can then read the TSC once with KVM_GET_CLOCK to capture a (realtime, host_tsc) pair at the instant when the guest is paused.

2021-08-20KVM: x86: implement KVM_GUESTDBG_BLOCKIRQMaxim Levitsky
KVM_GUESTDBG_BLOCKIRQ will allow KVM to block all interrupts while running. This change is mostly intended for more robust single stepping of the guest and it has the following benefits when enabled: * Resuming from a breakpoint is much more reliable. When resuming execution from a breakpoint, with interrupts enabled, more often than not, KVM would inject an interrupt and make the CPU jump immediately to the interrupt handler and eventually return to the breakpoint, to trigger it again. From the user point of view it looks like the CPU never executed a single instruction and in some cases that can even prevent forward progress, for example, when the breakpoint is placed by an automated script (e.g lx-symbols), which does something in response to the breakpoint and then continues the guest automatically. If the script execution takes enough time for another interrupt to arrive, the guest will be stuck on the same breakpoint RIP forever. * Normal single stepping is much more predictable, since it won't land the debugger into an interrupt handler. * RFLAGS.TF has less chance to be leaked to the guest: We set that flag behind the guest's back to do single stepping but if single step lands us into an interrupt/exception handler it will be leaked to the guest in the form of being pushed to the stack. This doesn't completely eliminate this problem as exceptions can still happen, but at least this reduces the chances of this happening.

2021-02-04KVM: VMX: Enable bus lock VM exitChenyi Qiang
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".

2020-11-15KVM: X86: Implement ring-based dirty memory trackingPeter Xu
This patch is heavily based on previous work from Lei Cao <lei.cao@stratus.com> and Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>. [1] KVM currently uses large bitmaps to track dirty memory. These bitmaps are copied to userspace when userspace queries KVM for its dirty page information. The use of bitmaps is mostly sufficient for live migration, as large parts of memory are be dirtied from one log-dirty pass to another. However, in a checkpointing system, the number of dirty pages is small and in fact it is often bounded---the VM is paused when it has dirtied a pre-defined number of pages. Traversing a large, sparsely populated bitmap to find set bits is time-consuming, as is copying the bitmap to user-space. A similar issue will be there for live migration when the guest memory is huge while the page dirty procedure is trivial. In that case for each dirty sync we need to pull the whole dirty bitmap to userspace and analyse every bit even if it's mostly zeros. The preferred data structure for above scenarios is a dense list of guest frame numbers (GFN). This patch series stores the dirty list in kernel memory that can be memory mapped into userspace to allow speedy harvesting. This patch enables dirty ring for X86 only. However it should be easily extended to other archs as well.

2020-09-28KVM: x86: Introduce MSR filteringAlexander Graf
It's not desireable to have all MSRs always handled by KVM kernel space. Some MSRs would be useful to handle in user space to either emulate behavior (like uCode updates) or differentiate whether they are valid based on the CPU model. To allow user space to specify which MSRs it wants to see handled by KVM, this patch introduces a new ioctl to push filter rules with bitmaps into KVM. Based on these bitmaps, KVM can then decide whether to reject MSR access. With the addition of KVM_CAP_X86_USER_SPACE_MSR it can also deflect the denied MSR events to user space to operate on. If no filter is populated, MSR handling stays identical to before.

Since commit 5f3d45e7f282 ("kvm/x86: add support for MONITOR_TRAP_FLAG"), KVM has allowed an L1 guest to use the monitor trap flag processor-based execution control for its L2 guest. KVM simply forwards any MTF VM-exits to the L1 guest, which works for normal instruction execution. However, when KVM needs to emulate an instruction on the behalf of an L2 guest, the monitor trap flag is not emulated. Add the necessary logic to kvm_skip_emulated_instruction() to synthesize an MTF VM-exit to L1 upon instruction emulation for L2.

Improve the KVM_{GET,SET}_NESTED_STATE structs by detailing the format of VMX nested state data in a struct. In order to avoid changing the ioctl values of KVM_{GET,SET}_NESTED_STATE, there is a need to preserve sizeof(struct kvm_nested_state). This is done by defining the data struct as "data.vmx[0]". It was the most elegant way I found to preserve struct size while still keeping struct readable and easy to maintain. It does have a misfortunate side-effect that now it has to be accessed as "data.vmx[0]" rather than just "data.vmx". Because we are already modifying these structs, I also modified the following: * Define the "format" field values as macros. * Rename vmcs_pa to vmcs12_pa for better readability.

2019-04-30KVM: x86: Whitelist port 0x7e for pre-incrementing %ripSean Christopherson
KVM's recent bug fix to update %rip after emulating I/O broke userspace that relied on the previous behavior of incrementing %rip prior to exiting to userspace. When running a Windows XP guest on AMD hardware, Qemu may patch "OUT 0x7E" instructions in reaction to the OUT itself. Because KVM's old behavior was to increment %rip before exiting to userspace to handle the I/O, Qemu manually adjusted %rip to account for the OUT instruction. Arguably this is a userspace bug as KVM requires userspace to re-enter the kernel to complete instruction emulation before taking any other actions. That being said, this is a bit of a grey area and breaking userspace that has worked for many years is bad. Pre-increment %rip on OUT to port 0x7e before exiting to userspace to hack around the issue.

2018-09-20x86/kvm/lapic: always disable MMIO interface in x2APIC modeVitaly Kuznetsov
When VMX is used with flexpriority disabled (because of no support or if disabled with module parameter) MMIO interface to lAPIC is still available in x2APIC mode while it shouldn't be (kvm-unit-tests): PASS: apic_disable: Local apic enabled in x2APIC mode PASS: apic_disable: CPUID.1H:EDX.APIC[bit 9] is set FAIL: apic_disable: *0xfee00030: 50014 The issue appears because we basically do nothing while switching to x2APIC mode when APIC access page is not used. apic_mmio_{read,write} only check if lAPIC is disabled before proceeding to actual write. When APIC access is virtualized we correctly manipulate with VMX controls in vmx_set_virtual_apic_mode() and we don't get vmexits from memory writes in x2APIC mode so there's no issue. Disabling MMIO interface seems to be easy. The question is: what do we do with these reads and writes? If we add apic_x2apic_mode() check to apic_mmio_in_range() and return -EOPNOTSUPP these reads and writes will go to userspace. When lAPIC is in kernel, Qemu uses this interface to inject MSIs only (see kvm_apic_mem_write() in hw/i386/kvm/apic.c). This somehow works with disabled lAPIC but when we're in xAPIC mode we will get a real injected MSI from every write to lAPIC. Not good. The simplest solution seems to be to just ignore writes to the region and return ~0 for all reads when we're in x2APIC mode. This is what this patch does. However, this approach is inconsistent with what currently happens when flexpriority is enabled: we allocate APIC access page and create KVM memory region so in x2APIC modes all reads and writes go to this pre-allocated page which is, btw, the same for all vCPUs.
