KVM: Allow building irqbypass.ko as as module when kvm.ko is a module

2025-04-20T08:15:54+00:00

commit 459a35111b0a890172a78d51c01b204e13a34a18 upstream. Convert HAVE_KVM_IRQ_BYPASS into a tristate so that selecting IRQ_BYPASS_MANAGER follows KVM={m,y}, i.e. doesn't force irqbypass.ko to be built-in. Note, PPC allows building KVM as a module, but selects HAVE_KVM_IRQ_BYPASS from a boolean Kconfig, i.e. KVM PPC unnecessarily forces irqbpass.ko to be built-in. But that flaw is a longstanding PPC specific issue.

KVM: rename CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_GMEM_* to CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_ARCH_GMEM_*

2024-07-26T18:46:14+00:00

Add "ARCH" to the symbols; shortly, the "prepare" phase will include both the arch-independent step to clear out contents left in the page by the host, and the arch-dependent step enabled by CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_GMEM_PREPARE. For consistency do the same for CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_GMEM_INVALIDATE as well. Reviewed-by: Michael Roth Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini

KVM: Add KVM_PRE_FAULT_MEMORY vcpu ioctl to pre-populate guest memory

2024-07-12T15:17:35+00:00

Add a new ioctl KVM_PRE_FAULT_MEMORY in the KVM common code. It iterates on the memory range and calls the arch-specific function. The implementation is optional and enabled by a Kconfig symbol.

KVM: guest_memfd: Add hook for invalidating memory

2024-05-10T17:11:48+00:00

In some cases, like with SEV-SNP, guest memory needs to be updated in a platform-specific manner before it can be safely freed back to the host. Wire up arch-defined hooks to the .free_folio kvm_gmem_aops callback to allow for special handling of this sort when freeing memory in response to FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE operations and when releasing the inode, and go ahead and define an arch-specific hook for x86 since it will be needed for handling memory used for SEV-SNP guests.

KVM: guest_memfd: Add hook for initializing memory

2024-05-10T17:11:46+00:00

guest_memfd pages are generally expected to be in some arch-defined initial state prior to using them for guest memory. For SEV-SNP this initial state is 'private', or 'guest-owned', and requires additional operations to move these pages into a 'private' state by updating the corresponding entries the RMP table. Allow for an arch-defined hook to handle updates of this sort, and go ahead and implement one for x86 so KVM implementations like AMD SVM can register a kvm_x86_ops callback to handle these updates for SEV-SNP guests. The preparation callback is always called when allocating/grabbing folios via gmem, and it is up to the architecture to keep track of whether or not the pages are already in the expected state (e.g. the RMP table in the case of SEV-SNP). In some cases, it is necessary to defer the preparation of the pages to handle things like in-place encryption of initial guest memory payloads before marking these pages as 'private'/'guest-owned'. Add an argument (always true for now) to kvm_gmem_get_folio() that allows for the preparation callback to be bypassed. To detect possible issues in the way userspace initializes memory, it is only possible to add an unprepared page if it is not already included in the filemap.

Merge branch 'kvm-kconfig'

2024-02-08T13:47:51+00:00

Cleanups to Kconfig definitions for KVM * replace HAVE_KVM with an architecture-dependent symbol, when CONFIG_KVM may or may not be available depending on CPU capabilities (MIPS) * replace HAVE_KVM with IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_KVM) for host-side code that is not part of the KVM module, so that it is completely compiled out * factor common "select" statements in common code instead of requiring each architecture to specify it

kvm: move "select IRQ_BYPASS_MANAGER" to common code

2024-02-08T13:45:34+00:00

CONFIG_IRQ_BYPASS_MANAGER is a dependency of the common code included by CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_IRQ_BYPASS. There is no advantage in adding the corresponding "select" directive to each architecture. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini

kvm: replace __KVM_HAVE_READONLY_MEM with Kconfig symbol

2024-02-08T13:41:06+00:00

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

KVM: fix direction of dependency on MMU notifiers

2024-01-08T13:09:38+00:00

KVM_GENERIC_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES requires the generic MMU notifier code, because it uses kvm_mmu_invalidate_begin/end. However, it would not work with a bespoke implementation of MMU notifiers that does not use KVM_GENERIC_MMU_NOTIFIER, because most likely it would not synchronize correctly on invalidation. So the right thing to do is to note the problematic configuration if the architecture does not select itself KVM_GENERIC_MMU_NOTIFIER; not to enable it blindly. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini
