KVM GUEST_MEMFD fixes for 6.8:
- Make KVM_MEM_GUEST_MEMFD mutually exclusive with KVM_MEM_READONLY to
avoid creating ABI that KVM can't sanely support.
- Update documentation for KVM_SW_PROTECTED_VM to make it abundantly
clear that such VMs are purely a development and testing vehicle, and
come with zero guarantees.
- Limit KVM_SW_PROTECTED_VM guests to the TDP MMU, as the long term plan
is to support confidential VMs with deterministic private memory (SNP
and TDX) only in the TDP MMU.
- Fix a bug in a GUEST_MEMFD negative test that resulted in false passes
when verifying that KVM_MEM_GUEST_MEMFD memslots can't be dirty logged.
|
|
Advertise and support software-protected VMs if and only if the TDP MMU is
enabled, i.e. disallow KVM_SW_PROTECTED_VM if TDP is enabled for KVM's
legacy/shadow MMU. TDP support for the shadow MMU is maintenance-only,
e.g. support for TDX and SNP will also be restricted to the TDP MMU.

When emulating an atomic access on behalf of the guest, mark the target
gfn dirty if the CMPXCHG by KVM is attempted and doesn't fault. This
fixes a bug where KVM effectively corrupts guest memory during live
migration by writing to guest memory without informing userspace that the
page is dirty.
Marking the page dirty got unintentionally dropped when KVM's emulated
CMPXCHG was converted to do a user access. Before that, KVM explicitly
mapped the guest page into kernel memory, and marked the page dirty during
the unmap phase.
Mark the page dirty even if the CMPXCHG fails, as the old data is written
back on failure, i.e. the page is still written. The value written is
guaranteed to be the same because the operation is atomic, but KVM's ABI
is that all writes are dirty logged regardless of the value written. And
more importantly, that's what KVM did before the buggy commit.
Huge kudos to the folks on the Cc list (and many others), who did all the
actual work of triaging and debugging.

KVM selftests fixes/cleanups (and one KVM x86 cleanup) for 6.8:
- Remove redundant newlines from error messages.
- Delete an unused variable in the AMX test (which causes build failures when
compiling with -Werror).
- Fail instead of skipping tests if open(), e.g. of /dev/kvm, fails with an
error code other than ENOENT (a Hyper-V selftest bug resulted in an EMFILE,
and the test eventually got skipped).
- Fix TSC related bugs in several Hyper-V selftests.
- Fix a bug in the dirty ring logging test where a sem_post() could be left
pending across multiple runs, resulting in incorrect synchronization between
the main thread and the vCPU worker thread.
- Relax the dirty log split test's assertions on 4KiB mappings to fix false
positives due to the number of mappings for memslot 0 (used for code and
data that is NOT being dirty logged) changing, e.g. due to NUMA balancing.
- Have KVM's gtod_is_based_on_tsc() return "bool" instead of an "int" (the
function generates boolean values, and all callers treat the return value as
a bool).

KVM x86 fixes for 6.8:
- Make a KVM_REQ_NMI request while handling KVM_SET_VCPU_EVENTS if and only
if the incoming events->nmi.pending is non-zero. If the target vCPU is in
the UNITIALIZED state, the spurious request will result in KVM exiting to
userspace, which in turn causes QEMU to constantly acquire and release
QEMU's global mutex, to the point where the BSP is unable to make forward
progress.
- Fix a type (u8 versus u64) goof that results in pmu->fixed_ctr_ctrl being
incorrectly truncated, and ultimately causes KVM to think a fixed counter
has already been disabled (KVM thinks the old value is '0').
- Fix a stack leak in KVM_GET_MSRS where a failed MSR read from userspace
that is ultimately ignored due to ignore_msrs=true doesn't zero the output
as intended.
|
|
Commit 6abe9c1386e5 ("KVM: X86: Move ignore_msrs handling upper the
stack") changed the 'ignore_msrs' handling, including sanitizing return
values to the caller. This was fine until commit 12bc2132b15e ("KVM:
X86: Do the same ignore_msrs check for feature msrs") which allowed
non-existing feature MSRs to be ignored, i.e. to not generate an error
on the ioctl() level. It even tried to preserve the sanitization of the
return value. However, the logic is flawed, as '*data' will be
overwritten again with the uninitialized stack value of msr.data.
Fix this by simplifying the logic and always initializing msr.data,
vanishing the need for an additional error exit path.

gtod_is_based_on_tsc() is boolean in nature, i.e. it returns '1' for good
clocksources and '0' otherwise. Moreover, its result is used raw by
kvm_get_time_and_clockread()/kvm_get_walltime_and_clockread() which are
'bool'.

Since commit b0563468eeac ("x86/CPU/AMD: Disable XSAVES on AMD family 0x17")
kernel unconditionally clears the XSAVES CPU feature bit on Zen1/2 CPUs.
Because KVM CPU caps are initialized from the kernel boot CPU features this
makes the XSAVES feature also unavailable for KVM guests in this case.
At the same time the XSAVEC feature is left enabled.
Unfortunately, having XSAVEC but no XSAVES in CPUID breaks Hyper-V enabled
Windows Server 2016 VMs that have more than one vCPU.
Let's at least give users hint in the kernel log what could be wrong since
these VMs currently simply hang at boot with a black screen - giving no
clue what suddenly broke them and how to make them work again.
Trigger the kernel message hint based on the particular guest ID written to
the Guest OS Identity Hyper-V MSR implemented by KVM.
Defer this check to when the L1 Hyper-V hypervisor enables SVM in EFER
since we want to limit this message to Hyper-V enabled Windows guests only
(Windows session running nested as L2) but the actual Guest OS Identity MSR
write is done by L1 and happens before it enables SVM.

As the kvm api(https://docs.kernel.org/virt/kvm/api.html) reads,
KVM_CREATE_PIT2 call is only valid after enabling in-kernel irqchip
support via KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP.
Without this check, I can create PIT first and enable irqchip-split
then, which may cause the PIT invalid because of lacking of in-kernel
PIC to inject the interrupt.

kvm_vcpu_ioctl_x86_set_vcpu_events() routine makes 'KVM_REQ_NMI'
request for a vcpu even when its 'events->nmi.pending' is zero.
Ex:
qemu_thread_start
kvm_vcpu_thread_fn
qemu_wait_io_event
qemu_wait_io_event_common
process_queued_cpu_work
do_kvm_cpu_synchronize_post_init/_reset
kvm_arch_put_registers
kvm_put_vcpu_events (cpu, level=[2|3])
This leads vCPU threads in QEMU to constantly acquire & release the
global mutex lock, delaying the guest boot due to lock contention.
Add check to make KVM_REQ_NMI request only if vcpu has NMI pending.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"Generic:
- Use memdup_array_user() to harden against overflow.
- Unconditionally advertise KVM_CAP_DEVICE_CTRL for all
architectures.
- Clean up Kconfigs that all KVM architectures were selecting
- New functionality around "guest_memfd", a new userspace API that
creates an anonymous file and returns a file descriptor that refers
to it. guest_memfd files are bound to their owning virtual machine,
cannot be mapped, read, or written by userspace, and cannot be
resized. guest_memfd files do however support PUNCH_HOLE, which can
be used to switch a memory area between guest_memfd and regular
anonymous memory.
- New ioctl KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES allowing userspace to specify
per-page attributes for a given page of guest memory; right now the
only attribute is whether the guest expects to access memory via
guest_memfd or not, which in Confidential SVMs backed by SEV-SNP,
TDX or ARM64 pKVM is checked by firmware or hypervisor that
guarantees confidentiality (AMD PSP, Intel TDX module, or EL2 in
the case of pKVM).
x86:
- Support for "software-protected VMs" that can use the new
guest_memfd and page attributes infrastructure. This is mostly
useful for testing, since there is no pKVM-like infrastructure to
provide a meaningfully reduced TCB.
- Fix a relatively benign off-by-one error when splitting huge pages
during CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG.
- Fix a bug where KVM could incorrectly test-and-clear dirty bits in
non-leaf TDP MMU SPTEs if a racing thread replaces a huge SPTE with
a non-huge SPTE.
- Use more generic lockdep assertions in paths that don't actually
care about whether the caller is a reader or a writer.
- let Xen guests opt out of having PV clock reported as "based on a
stable TSC", because some of them don't expect the "TSC stable" bit
(added to the pvclock ABI by KVM, but never set by Xen) to be set.
- Revert a bogus, made-up nested SVM consistency check for
TLB_CONTROL.
- Advertise flush-by-ASID support for nSVM unconditionally, as KVM
always flushes on nested transitions, i.e. always satisfies flush
requests. This allows running bleeding edge versions of VMware
Workstation on top of KVM.
- Sanity check that the CPU supports flush-by-ASID when enabling SEV
support.
- On AMD machines with vNMI, always rely on hardware instead of
intercepting IRET in some cases to detect unmasking of NMIs
- Support for virtualizing Linear Address Masking (LAM)
- Fix a variety of vPMU bugs where KVM fail to stop/reset counters
and other state prior to refreshing the vPMU model.
- Fix a double-overflow PMU bug by tracking emulated counter events
using a dedicated field instead of snapshotting the "previous"
counter. If the hardware PMC count triggers overflow that is
recognized in the same VM-Exit that KVM manually bumps an event
count, KVM would pend PMIs for both the hardware-triggered overflow
and for KVM-triggered overflow.
- Turn off KVM_WERROR by default for all configs so that it's not
inadvertantly enabled by non-KVM developers, which can be
problematic for subsystems that require no regressions for W=1
builds.
- Advertise all of the host-supported CPUID bits that enumerate
IA32_SPEC_CTRL "features".
- Don't force a masterclock update when a vCPU synchronizes to the
current TSC generation, as updating the masterclock can cause
kvmclock's time to "jump" unexpectedly, e.g. when userspace
hotplugs a pre-created vCPU.
- Use RIP-relative address to read kvm_rebooting in the VM-Enter
fault paths, partly as a super minor optimization, but mostly to
make KVM play nice with position independent executable builds.
- Guard KVM-on-HyperV's range-based TLB flush hooks with an #ifdef on
CONFIG_HYPERV as a minor optimization, and to self-document the
code.
- Add CONFIG_KVM_HYPERV to allow disabling KVM support for HyperV
"emulation" at build time.
ARM64:
- LPA2 support, adding 52bit IPA/PA capability for 4kB and 16kB base
granule sizes. Branch shared with the arm64 tree.
- Large Fine-Grained Trap rework, bringing some sanity to the
feature, although there is more to come. This comes with a prefix
branch shared with the arm64 tree.
- Some additional Nested Virtualization groundwork, mostly
introducing the NV2 VNCR support and retargetting the NV support to
that version of the architecture.
- A small set of vgic fixes and associated cleanups.
Loongarch:
- Optimization for memslot hugepage checking
- Cleanup and fix some HW/SW timer issues
- Add LSX/LASX (128bit/256bit SIMD) support
RISC-V:
- KVM_GET_REG_LIST improvement for vector registers
- Generate ISA extension reg_list using macros in get-reg-list
selftest
- Support for reporting steal time along with selftest
s390:
- Bugfixes
Selftests:
- Fix an annoying goof where the NX hugepage test prints out garbage
instead of the magic token needed to run the test.
- Fix build errors when a header is delete/moved due to a missing
flag in the Makefile.
- Detect if KVM bugged/killed a selftest's VM and print out a helpful
message instead of complaining that a random ioctl() failed.
- Annotate the guest printf/assert helpers with __printf(), and fix
the various bugs that were lurking due to lack of said annotation"

KVM Xen change for 6.8:
To workaround Xen guests that don't expect Xen PV clocks to be marked as being
based on a stable TSC, add a Xen config knob to allow userspace to opt out of
KVM setting the "TSC stable" bit in Xen PV clocks. Note, the "TSC stable" bit
was added to the PVCLOCK ABI by KVM without an ack from Xen, i.e. KVM isn't
entirely blameless for the buggy guest behavior.

KVM x86 support for virtualizing Linear Address Masking (LAM)
Add KVM support for Linear Address Masking (LAM). LAM tweaks the canonicality
checks for most virtual address usage in 64-bit mode, such that only the most
significant bit of the untranslated address bits must match the polarity of the
last translated address bit. This allows software to use ignored, untranslated
address bits for metadata, e.g. to efficiently tag pointers for address
sanitization.
LAM can be enabled separately for user pointers and supervisor pointers, and
for userspace LAM can be select between 48-bit and 57-bit masking
- 48-bit LAM: metadata bits 62:48, i.e. LAM width of 15.
- 57-bit LAM: metadata bits 62:57, i.e. LAM width of 6.
For user pointers, LAM enabling utilizes two previously-reserved high bits from
CR3 (similar to how PCID_NOFLUSH uses bit 63): LAM_U48 and LAM_U57, bits 62 and
61 respectively. Note, if LAM_57 is set, LAM_U48 is ignored, i.e.:
- CR3.LAM_U48=0 && CR3.LAM_U57=0 == LAM disabled for user pointers
- CR3.LAM_U48=1 && CR3.LAM_U57=0 == LAM-48 enabled for user pointers
- CR3.LAM_U48=x && CR3.LAM_U57=1 == LAM-57 enabled for user pointers
For supervisor pointers, LAM is controlled by a single bit, CR4.LAM_SUP, with
the 48-bit versus 57-bit LAM behavior following the current paging mode, i.e.:
- CR4.LAM_SUP=0 && CR4.LA57=x == LAM disabled for supervisor pointers
- CR4.LAM_SUP=1 && CR4.LA57=0 == LAM-48 enabled for supervisor pointers
- CR4.LAM_SUP=1 && CR4.LA57=1 == LAM-57 enabled for supervisor pointers
The modified LAM canonicality checks:
- LAM_S48 : [ 1 ][ metadata ][ 1 ]
63 47
- LAM_U48 : [ 0 ][ metadata ][ 0 ]
63 47
- LAM_S57 : [ 1 ][ metadata ][ 1 ]
63 56
- LAM_U57 + 5-lvl paging : [ 0 ][ metadata ][ 0 ]
63 56
- LAM_U57 + 4-lvl paging : [ 0 ][ metadata ][ 0...0 ]
63 56..47
The bulk of KVM support for LAM is to emulate LAM's modified canonicality
checks. The approach taken by KVM is to "fill" the metadata bits using the
highest bit of the translated address, e.g. for LAM-48, bit 47 is sign-extended
to bits 62:48. The most significant bit, 63, is *not* modified, i.e. its value
from the raw, untagged virtual address is kept for the canonicality check. This
untagging allows
Aside from emulating LAM's canonical checks behavior, LAM has the usual KVM
touchpoints for selectable features: enumeration (CPUID.7.1:EAX.LAM[bit 26],
enabling via CR3 and CR4 bits, etc.

kvm-master
KVM fixes for 6.7-rcN:
- When checking if a _running_ vCPU is "in-kernel", i.e. running at CPL0,
get the CPL directly instead of relying on preempted_in_kernel, which
is valid if and only if the vCPU was preempted, i.e. NOT running.
- Set .owner for various KVM file_operations so that files refcount the
KVM module until KVM is done executing _all_ code, including the last
few instructions of kvm_put_kvm(). And then revert the misguided
attempt to rely on "struct kvm" refcounts to pin KVM-the-module.
- Fix a benign "return void" that was recently introduced.

Unless explicitly told to do so (by passing 'clocksource=tsc' and
'tsc=stable:socket', and then jumping through some hoops concerning
potential CPU hotplug) Xen will never use TSC as its clocksource.
Hence, by default, a Xen guest will not see PVCLOCK_TSC_STABLE_BIT set
in either the primary or secondary pvclock memory areas. This has
led to bugs in some guest kernels which only become evident if
PVCLOCK_TSC_STABLE_BIT *is* set in the pvclocks. Hence, to support
such guests, give the VMM a new Xen HVM config flag to tell KVM to
forcibly clear the bit in the Xen pvclocks.

surface. Introduce CONFIG_KVM_HYPERV option to make it possible.

Hyper-V partition assist page is used when KVM runs on top of Hyper-V and
is not used for Windows/Hyper-V guests on KVM, this means that 'hv_pa_pg'
placement in 'struct kvm_hv' is unfortunate. As a preparation to making
Hyper-V emulation optional, move 'hv_pa_pg' to 'struct kvm_arch' and put it

Drop kvm_vcpu_reset()'s call to kvm_pmu_reset(), the call is performed
only for RESET, which is really just the same thing as vCPU creation,
and kvm_arch_vcpu_create() *just* called kvm_pmu_init(), i.e. there can't
possibly be any work to do.
Unlike Intel, AMD's amd_pmu_refresh() does fill all_valid_pmc_idx even if
guest CPUID is empty, but everything that is at all dynamic is guaranteed

Don't force a masterclock update when a vCPU synchronizes to the current
TSC generation, e.g. when userspace hotplugs a pre-created vCPU into the
VM. Unnecessarily updating the masterclock is undesirable as it can cause
kvmclock's time to jump, which is particularly painful on systems with a
stable TSC as kvmclock _should_ be fully reliable on such systems.
The unexpected time jumps are due to differences in the TSC=>nanoseconds
conversion algorithms between kvmclock and the host's CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW
(the pvclock algorithm is inherently lossy). When updating the
masterclock, KVM refreshes the "base", i.e. moves the elapsed time since
the last update from the kvmclock/pvclock algorithm to the
CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW algorithm. Synchronizing kvmclock with
CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW is the lesser of evils when the TSC is unstable, but
adds no real value when the TSC is stable.
Prior to commit 7f187922ddf6 ("KVM: x86: update masterclock values on TSC
writes"), KVM did NOT force an update when synchronizing a vCPU to the
current generation.
commit 7f187922ddf6b67f2999a76dcb71663097b75497
Author: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>
Date: Tue Nov 4 21:30:44 2014 -0200
KVM: x86: update masterclock values on TSC writes
When the guest writes to the TSC, the masterclock TSC copy must be
updated as well along with the TSC_OFFSET update, otherwise a negative
tsc_timestamp is calculated at kvm_guest_time_update.
Once "if (!vcpus_matched && ka->use_master_clock)" is simplified to
"if (ka->use_master_clock)", the corresponding "if (!ka->use_master_clock)"
becomes redundant, so remove the do_request boolean and collapse
everything into a single condition.
Before that, KVM only re-synced the masterclock if the masterclock was
enabled or disabled Note, at the time of the above commit, VMX
synchronized TSC on *guest* writes to MSR_IA32_TSC:
case MSR_IA32_TSC:
kvm_write_tsc(vcpu, msr_info);
break;
which is why the changelog specifically says "guest writes", but the bug
that was being fixed wasn't unique to guest write, i.e. a TSC write from
the host would suffer the same problem.
So even though KVM stopped synchronizing on guest writes as of commit
0c899c25d754 ("KVM: x86: do not attempt TSC synchronization on guest
writes"), simply reverting commit 7f187922ddf6 is not an option. Figuring
out how a negative tsc_timestamp could be computed requires a bit more
sleuthing.
In kvm_write_tsc() (at the time), except for KVM's "less than 1 second"
hack, KVM snapshotted the vCPU's current TSC *and* the current time in
nanoseconds, where kvm->arch.cur_tsc_nsec is the current host kernel time
in nanoseconds:
ns = get_kernel_ns();
...
if (usdiff < USEC_PER_SEC &&
vcpu->arch.virtual_tsc_khz == kvm->arch.last_tsc_khz) {
...
} else {
/*
* We split periods of matched TSC writes into generations.
* For each generation, we track the original measured
* nanosecond time, offset, and write, so if TSCs are in
* sync, we can match exact offset, and if not, we can match
* exact software computation in compute_guest_tsc()
*
* These values are tracked in kvm->arch.cur_xxx variables.
*/
kvm->arch.cur_tsc_generation++;
kvm->arch.cur_tsc_nsec = ns;
kvm->arch.cur_tsc_write = data;
kvm->arch.cur_tsc_offset = offset;
matched = false;
pr_debug("kvm: new tsc generation %llu, clock %llu\n",
kvm->arch.cur_tsc_generation, data);
}
...
/* Keep track of which generation this VCPU has synchronized to */
vcpu->arch.this_tsc_generation = kvm->arch.cur_tsc_generation;
vcpu->arch.this_tsc_nsec = kvm->arch.cur_tsc_nsec;
vcpu->arch.this_tsc_write = kvm->arch.cur_tsc_write;
Note that the above creates a new generation and sets "matched" to false!
But because kvm_track_tsc_matching() looks for matched+1, i.e. doesn't
require the vCPU that creates the new generation to match itself, KVM
would immediately compute vcpus_matched as true for VMs with a single vCPU.
As a result, KVM would skip the masterlock update, even though a new TSC
generation was created:
vcpus_matched = (ka->nr_vcpus_matched_tsc + 1 ==
atomic_read(&vcpu->kvm->online_vcpus));
if (vcpus_matched && gtod->clock.vclock_mode == VCLOCK_TSC)
if (!ka->use_master_clock)
do_request = 1;
if (!vcpus_matched && ka->use_master_clock)
do_request = 1;
if (do_request)
kvm_make_request(KVM_REQ_MASTERCLOCK_UPDATE, vcpu);
On hardware without TSC scaling support, vcpu->tsc_catchup is set to true
if the guest TSC frequency is faster than the host TSC frequency, even if
the TSC is otherwise stable. And for that mode, kvm_guest_time_update(),
by way of compute_guest_tsc(), uses vcpu->arch.this_tsc_nsec, a.k.a. the
kernel time at the last TSC write, to compute the guest TSC relative to
kernel time:
static u64 compute_guest_tsc(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu, s64 kernel_ns)
{
u64 tsc = pvclock_scale_delta(kernel_ns-vcpu->arch.this_tsc_nsec,
vcpu->arch.virtual_tsc_mult,
vcpu->arch.virtual_tsc_shift);
tsc += vcpu->arch.this_tsc_write;
return tsc;
}
Except the "kernel_ns" passed to compute_guest_tsc() isn't the current
kernel time, it's the masterclock snapshot!
spin_lock(&ka->pvclock_gtod_sync_lock);
use_master_clock = ka->use_master_clock;
if (use_master_clock) {
host_tsc = ka->master_cycle_now;
kernel_ns = ka->master_kernel_ns;
}
spin_unlock(&ka->pvclock_gtod_sync_lock);
if (vcpu->tsc_catchup) {
u64 tsc = compute_guest_tsc(v, kernel_ns);
if (tsc > tsc_timestamp) {
adjust_tsc_offset_guest(v, tsc - tsc_timestamp);
tsc_timestamp = tsc;
}
}
And so when KVM skips the masterclock update after a TSC write, i.e. after
a new TSC generation is started, the "kernel_ns-vcpu->arch.this_tsc_nsec"
is *guaranteed* to generate a negative value, because this_tsc_nsec was
captured after ka->master_kernel_ns.
Forcing a masterclock update essentially fudged around that problem, but
in a heavy handed way that introduced undesirable side effects, i.e.
unnecessarily forces a masterclock update when a new vCPU joins the party
via hotplug.
Note, KVM forces masterclock updates in other weird ways that are also
likely unnecessary, e.g. when establishing a new Xen shared info page and
when userspace creates a brand new vCPU. But the Xen thing is firmly a
separate mess, and there are no known userspace VMMs that utilize kvmclock
*and* create new vCPUs after the VM is up and running. I.e. the other
issues are future problems.

When querying whether or not a vCPU "is" running in kernel mode, directly
get the CPL if the vCPU is the currently loaded vCPU. In scenarios where
a guest is profiled via perf-kvm, querying vcpu->arch.preempted_in_kernel
from kvm_guest_state() is wrong if vCPU is actively running, i.e. isn't
scheduled out due to being preempted and so preempted_in_kernel is stale.
This affects perf/core's ability to accurately tag guest RIP with
PERF_RECORD_MISC_GUEST_{KERNEL|USER} and record it in the sample. This
causes perf/tool to fail to connect the vCPU RIPs to the guest kernel
space symbols when parsing these samples due to incorrect PERF_RECORD_MISC
flags:
Before (perf-report of a cpu-cycles sample):
1.23% :58945 [unknown] [u] 0xffffffff818012e0
After:
1.35% :60703 [kernel.vmlinux] [g] asm_exc_page_fault
Note, checking preempted_in_kernel in kvm_arch_vcpu_in_kernel() is awful
as nothing in the API's suggests that it's safe to use if and only if the
vCPU was preempted. That can be cleaned up in the future, for now just
fix the glaring correctness bug.
Note #2, checking vcpu->preempted is NOT safe, as getting the CPL on VMX
requires VMREAD, i.e. is correct if and only if the vCPU is loaded. If
the target vCPU *was* preempted, then it can be scheduled back in after
the check on vcpu->preempted in kvm_vcpu_on_spin(), i.e. KVM could end up
trying to do VMREAD on a VMCS that isn't loaded on the current pCPU.

Stub in vmx_get_untagged_addr() and wire up calls from the emulator (via
get_untagged_addr()) and "direct" calls from various VM-Exit handlers in
VMX where LAM untagging is supposed to be applied. Defer implementing
the guts of vmx_get_untagged_addr() to future patches purely to make the
changes easier to consume.
LAM is active only for 64-bit linear addresses and several types of
accesses are exempted.
- Cases need to untag address (handled in get_vmx_mem_address())
Operand(s) of VMX instructions and INVPCID.
Operand(s) of SGX ENCLS.
- Cases LAM doesn't apply to (no change needed)
Operand of INVLPG.
Linear address in INVPCID descriptor.
Linear address in INVVPID descriptor.
BASEADDR specified in SECS of ECREATE.
Note:
- LAM doesn't apply to write to control registers or MSRs
- LAM masking is applied before walking page tables, i.e. the faulting
linear address in CR2 doesn't contain the metadata.
- The guest linear address saved in VMCS doesn't contain metadata.

When enabled feature like Intel Linear Address Masking (LAM) or AMD Upper

needs to be dropped prior to canonicality checks, i.e. the metadata is
ignored.
Introduce get_untagged_addr() to kvm_x86_ops to hide the vendor specific

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.

Let x86 track the number of address spaces on a per-VM basis so that KVM
can disallow SMM memslots for confidential VMs. Confidentials VMs are
fundamentally incompatible with emulating SMM, which as the name suggests
requires being able to read and write guest memory and register state.
Disallowing SMM will simplify support for guest private memory, as KVM
will not need to worry about tracking memory attributes for multiple
address spaces (SMM is the only "non-default" address space across all
architectures).

Disallow creating hugepages with mixed memory attributes, e.g. shared
versus private, as mapping a hugepage in this case would allow the guest
to access memory with the wrong attributes, e.g. overlaying private memory
with a shared hugepage.
Tracking whether or not attributes are mixed via the existing
disallow_lpage field, but use the most significant bit in 'disallow_lpage'
to indicate a hugepage has mixed attributes instead using the normal
refcounting. Whether or not attributes are mixed is binary; either they
are or they aren't. Attempting to squeeze that info into the refcount is
unnecessarily complex as it would require knowing the previous state of
the mixed count when updating attributes. Using a flag means KVM just
needs to ensure the current status is reflected in the memslots.

Initialize run->exit_reason to KVM_EXIT_UNKNOWN early in KVM_RUN to reduce
the probability of exiting to userspace with a stale run->exit_reason that
*appears* to be valid.
To support fd-based guest memory (guest memory without a corresponding
userspace virtual address), KVM will exit to userspace for various memory
related errors, which userspace *may* be able to resolve, instead of using
e.g. BUS_MCEERR_AR. And in the more distant future, KVM will also likely
utilize the same functionality to let userspace "intercept" and handle
memory faults when the userspace mapping is missing, i.e. when fast gup()
fails.
Because many of KVM's internal APIs related to guest memory use '0' to
indicate "success, continue on" and not "exit to userspace", reporting
memory faults/errors to userspace will set run->exit_reason and
corresponding fields in the run structure fields in conjunction with a
a non-zero, negative return code, e.g. -EFAULT or -EHWPOISON. And because
KVM already returns -EFAULT in many paths, there's a relatively high
probability that KVM could return -EFAULT without setting run->exit_reason,
in which case reporting KVM_EXIT_UNKNOWN is much better than reporting
whatever exit reason happened to be in the run structure.
Note, KVM must wait until after run->immediate_exit is serviced to
sanitize run->exit_reason as KVM's ABI is that run->exit_reason is
preserved across KVM_RUN when run->immediate_exit is true.

Add a new KVM exit type to allow userspace to handle memory faults that
KVM cannot resolve, but that userspace *may* be able to handle (without
terminating the guest).
KVM will initially use KVM_EXIT_MEMORY_FAULT to report implicit
conversions between private and shared memory. With guest private memory,
there will be two kind of memory conversions:
- explicit conversion: happens when the guest explicitly calls into KVM
to map a range (as private or shared)
- implicit conversion: happens when the guest attempts to access a gfn
that is configured in the "wrong" state (private vs. shared)
On x86 (first architecture to support guest private memory), explicit
conversions will be reported via KVM_EXIT_HYPERCALL+KVM_HC_MAP_GPA_RANGE,
but reporting KVM_EXIT_HYPERCALL for implicit conversions is undesriable
as there is (obviously) no hypercall, and there is no guarantee that the
guest actually intends to convert between private and shared, i.e. what
KVM thinks is an implicit conversion "request" could actually be the
result of a guest code bug.
KVM_EXIT_MEMORY_FAULT will be used to report memory faults that appear to
be implicit conversions.
Note! To allow for future possibilities where KVM reports
KVM_EXIT_MEMORY_FAULT and fills run->memory_fault on _any_ unresolved
fault, KVM returns "-EFAULT" (-1 with errno == EFAULT from userspace's
perspective), not '0'! Due to historical baggage within KVM, exiting to
userspace with '0' from deep callstacks, e.g. in emulation paths, is
infeasible as doing so would require a near-complete overhaul of KVM,
whereas KVM already propagates -errno return codes to userspace even when
the -errno originated in a low level helper.
Report the gpa+size instead of a single gfn even though the initial usage
is expected to always report single pages. It's entirely possible, likely
even, that KVM will someday support sub-page granularity faults, e.g.
Intel's sub-page protection feature allows for additional protections at
128-byte granularity.

Introduce a "version 2" of KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION so that additional
information can be supplied without setting userspace up to fail. The
padding in the new kvm_userspace_memory_region2 structure will be used to
pass a file descriptor in addition to the userspace_addr, i.e. allow
userspace to point at a file descriptor and map memory into a guest that
is NOT mapped into host userspace.
Alternatively, KVM could simply add "struct kvm_userspace_memory_region2"
without a new ioctl(), but as Paolo pointed out, adding a new ioctl()
makes detection of bad flags a bit more robust, e.g. if the new fd field
is guarded only by a flag and not a new ioctl(), then a userspace bug
(setting a "bad" flag) would generate out-of-bounds access instead of an
-EINVAL error.

using stale entries with the wrong memtype.
- Don't ignore guest PAT for CR0.CD=1 && KVM_X86_QUIRK_CD_NW_CLEARED=y, as
there's zero reason to ignore guest PAT if the effective MTRR memtype is WB.
This will also allow for future optimizations of handling guest MTRR updates

- Add IBPB and SBPB virtualization support.
- Fix a bug where restoring a vCPU snapshot that was taken within 1 second of
creating the original vCPU would cause KVM to try to synchronize the vCPU's
TSC and thus clobber the correct TSC being set by userspace.
- Compute guest wall clock using a single TSC read to avoid generating an
inaccurate time, e.g. if the vCPU is preempted between multiple TSC reads.
- "Virtualize" HWCR.TscFreqSel to make Linux guests happy, which complain
about a "Firmware Bug" if the bit isn't set for select F/M/S combos.
- Don't apply side effects to Hyper-V's synthetic timer on writes from
userspace to fix an issue where the auto-enable behavior can trigger
spurious interrupts, i.e. do auto-enabling only for guest writes.
- Remove an unnecessary kick of all vCPUs when synchronizing the dirty log
without PML enabled.
- Advertise "support" for non-serializing FS/GS base MSR writes as appropriate.
- Use octal notation for file permissions through KVM x86.
- Fix a handful of typo fixes and warts.

Service NMI and SMI requests after PMI requests in vcpu_enter_guest() so
that KVM does not need to cancel and redo the VM-Enter if the guest
configures its PMIs to be delivered as NMIs (likely) or SMIs (unlikely).
Because APIC emulation "injects" NMIs via KVM_REQ_NMI, handling PMI
requests after NMI requests (the likely case) means KVM won't detect the
pending NMI request until the final check for outstanding requests.
Detecting requests at the final stage is costly as KVM has already loaded
guest state, potentially queued events for injection, disabled IRQs,
dropped SRCU, etc., most of which needs to be unwound.
Note that changing the order of request processing doesn't change the end
result, as KVM's final check for outstanding requests prevents entering
the guest until all requests are serviced. I.e. KVM will ultimately
coalesce events (or not) regardless of the ordering.
Using SPEC2017 benchmark programs running along with Intel vtune in a VM
demonstrates that the following code change reduces 800~1500 canceled
VM-Enters per second.
Some glory details:
Probe the invocation to vmx_cancel_injection():
$ perf probe -a vmx_cancel_injection
$ perf stat -a -e probe:vmx_cancel_injection -I 10000 # per 10 seconds
Partial results when SPEC2017 with Intel vtune are running in the VM:

Hyper-V enabled Windows Server 2022 KVM VM cannot be started on Zen1 Ryzen
since it crashes at boot with SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED +
STATUS_PRIVILEGED_INSTRUCTION (in other words, because of an unexpected #GP
in the guest kernel).
This is because Windows tries to set bit 8 in MSR_AMD64_TW_CFG and can't
handle receiving a #GP when doing so.
Give this MSR the same treatment that commit 2e32b7190641
("x86, kvm: Add MSR_AMD64_BU_CFG2 to the list of ignored MSRs") gave
MSR_AMD64_BU_CFG2 under justification that this MSR is baremetal-relevant
only.
Although apparently it was then needed for Linux guests, not Windows as in
this case.
With this change, the aforementioned guest setup is able to finish booting
successfully.
This issue can be reproduced either on a Summit Ridge Ryzen (with
just "-cpu host") or on a Naples EPYC (with "-cpu host,stepping=1" since
EPYC is ordinarily stepping 2).
Alternatively, userspace could solve the problem by using MSR filters, but
forcing every userspace to define a filter isn't very friendly and doesn't
add much, if any, value. The only potential hiccup is if one of these
"baremetal-only" MSRs ever requires actual emulation and/or has F/M/S
specific behavior. But if that happens, then KVM can still punt *that*
handling to userspace since userspace MSR filters "win" over KVM's default
handling.

The 'kvmclock_periodic_sync' is a readonly param that cannot change after
bootup.
The kvm_arch_vcpu_postcreate() is not going to schedule the
kvmclock_sync_work if kvmclock_periodic_sync == false.
As a result, the "if (!kvmclock_periodic_sync)" can never be true if the
kvmclock_sync_work = kvmclock_sync_fn() is scheduled.

Stop kicking vCPUs in kvm_arch_sync_dirty_log() when PML is disabled.
Kicking vCPUs when PML is disabled serves no purpose and could
negatively impact guest performance.
This restores KVM's behavior to prior to 5.12 commit a018eba53870 ("KVM:
x86: Move MMU's PML logic to common code"), which replaced a
static_call_cond(kvm_x86_flush_log_dirty) with unconditional calls to
kvm_vcpu_kick().

KVM x86/pmu fixes for 6.6:
- Truncate writes to PMU counters to the counter's width to avoid spurious
overflows when emulating counter events in software.
- Set the LVTPC entry mask bit when handling a PMI (to match Intel-defined
architectural behavior).
- Treat KVM_REQ_PMI as a wake event instead of queueing host IRQ work to
kick the guest out of emulated halt.

Mask off xfeatures that aren't exposed to the guest only when saving guest
state via KVM_GET_XSAVE{2} instead of modifying user_xfeatures directly.
Preserving the maximal set of xfeatures in user_xfeatures restores KVM's
ABI for KVM_SET_XSAVE, which prior to commit ad856280ddea ("x86/kvm/fpu:
Limit guest user_xfeatures to supported bits of XCR0") allowed userspace
to load xfeatures that are supported by the host, irrespective of what
xfeatures are exposed to the guest.
There is no known use case where userspace *intentionally* loads xfeatures
that aren't exposed to the guest, but the bug fixed by commit ad856280ddea
was specifically that KVM_GET_SAVE{2} would save xfeatures that weren't
exposed to the guest, e.g. would lead to userspace unintentionally loading
guest-unsupported xfeatures when live migrating a VM.
Restricting KVM_SET_XSAVE to guest-supported xfeatures is especially
problematic for QEMU-based setups, as QEMU has a bug where instead of
terminating the VM if KVM_SET_XSAVE fails, QEMU instead simply stops
loading guest state, i.e. resumes the guest after live migration with
incomplete guest state, and ultimately results in guest data corruption.
Note, letting userspace restore all host-supported xfeatures does not fix
setups where a VM is migrated from a host *without* commit ad856280ddea,
to a target with a subset of host-supported xfeatures. However there is
no way to safely address that scenario, e.g. KVM could silently drop the
unsupported features, but that would be a clear violation of KVM's ABI and
so would require userspace to opt-in, at which point userspace could
simply be updated to sanitize the to-be-loaded XSAVE state.

Plumb an xfeatures mask into __copy_xstate_to_uabi_buf() so that KVM can
constrain which xfeatures are saved into the userspace buffer without
having to modify the user_xfeatures field in KVM's guest_fpu state.
KVM's ABI for KVM_GET_XSAVE{2} is that features that are not exposed to
guest must not show up in the effective xstate_bv field of the buffer.
Saving only the guest-supported xfeatures allows userspace to load the
saved state on a different host with a fewer xfeatures, so long as the
target host supports the xfeatures that are exposed to the guest.
KVM currently sets user_xfeatures directly to restrict KVM_GET_XSAVE{2} to
the set of guest-supported xfeatures, but doing so broke KVM's historical
ABI for KVM_SET_XSAVE, which allows userspace to load any xfeatures that
are supported by the *host*.
