x86/fred: Fix early boot failures on SEV-ES/SNP guests

2026-04-02T11:25:44+00:00

commit 3645eb7e3915990a149460c151a00894cb586253 upstream. FRED-enabled SEV-(ES,SNP) guests fail to boot due to the following issues in the early boot sequence: * FRED does not have a #VC exception handler in the dispatch logic * Early FRED #VC exceptions attempt to use uninitialized per-CPU GHCBs instead of boot_ghcb Add X86_TRAP_VC case to fred_hwexc() with a new exc_vmm_communication() function that provides the unified entry point FRED requires, dispatching to existing user/kernel handlers based on privilege level. The function is already declared via DECLARE_IDTENTRY_VC(). Fix early GHCB access by falling back to boot_ghcb in __sev_{get,put}_ghcb() when per-CPU GHCBs are not yet initialized.

x86/sev: Allow IBPB-on-Entry feature for SNP guests

2026-03-12T11:09:31+00:00

commit 9073428bb204d921ae15326bb7d4558d9d269aab upstream. The SEV-SNP IBPB-on-Entry feature does not require a guest-side implementation. It was added in Zen5 h/w, after the first SNP Zen implementation, and thus was not accounted for when the initial set of SNP features were added to the kernel. In its abundant precaution, commit 8c29f0165405 ("x86/sev: Add SEV-SNP guest feature negotiation support") included SEV_STATUS' IBPB-on-Entry bit as a reserved bit, thereby masking guests from using the feature. Allow guests to make use of IBPB-on-Entry when supported by the hypervisor, as the bit is now architecturally defined and safe to expose.

x86/sev: Disable GCOV on noinstr object

2026-01-05T09:22:48+00:00

With Debian clang version 19.1.7 (3+build5) there are calls to kasan_check_write() from __sev_es_nmi_complete(), which violates noinstr. Fix it by disabling GCOV for the noinstr object, as has been done for previous such instrumentation issues. Note that this file already disables __SANITIZE_ADDRESS__ and __SANITIZE_THREAD__, thus calls like kasan_check_write() ought to be nops regardless of GCOV. This has been fixed in other patches. However, to avoid any other accidental instrumentation showing up, (and since, in principle GCOV is instrumentation and hence should be disabled for noinstr code anyway), disable GCOV overall as well.

x86/sev: Include XSS value in GHCB CPUID request

2025-10-30T16:47:49+00:00

When a guest issues a CPUID instruction for Fn0000000D_x01, the hypervisor may be intercepting the CPUID instruction and need to access the guest XSS value. For SEV-ES, the XSS value is encrypted and needs to be included in the GHCB to be visible to the hypervisor.

x86/boot: Create a confined code area for startup code

2025-09-03T16:00:01+00:00

In order to be able to have tight control over which code may execute from the early 1:1 mapping of memory, but still link vmlinux as a single executable, prefix all symbol references in startup code with __pi_, and invoke it from outside using the __pi_ prefix. Use objtool to check that no absolute symbol references are present in the startup code, as these cannot be used from code running from the 1:1 mapping. Note that this also requires disabling the latent-entropy GCC plugin, as the global symbol references that it injects would require explicit exports, and given that the startup code rarely executes more than once, it is not a useful source of entropy anyway.

x86/sev: Move __sev_[get|put]_ghcb() into separate noinstr object

2025-09-03T15:59:46+00:00

Rename sev-nmi.c to noinstr.c, and move the get/put GHCB routines into it too, which are also annotated as 'noinstr' and suffer from the same problem as the NMI code, i.e., that GCC may ignore the __no_sanitize_address__ function attribute implied by 'noinstr' and insert KASAN instrumentation anyway.
