KVM fixes for 6.10
- Fix a "shift too big" goof in the KVM_SEV_INIT2 selftest.
- Compute the max mappable gfn for KVM selftests on x86 using GuestMaxPhyAddr
from KVM's supported CPUID (if it's available).
- Fix a race in kvm_vcpu_on_spin() by ensuring loads and stores are atomic.
- Fix technically benign bug in __kvm_handle_hva_range() where KVM consumes
the return from a void-returning function as if it were a boolean.

Function kvm_reset_dirty_gfn may be called with parameters cur_slot /
cur_offset / mask are all zero, it does not represent real dirty page.
It is not necessary to clear dirty page in this condition. Also return
value of macro __fls() is undefined if mask is zero which is called in
funciton kvm_reset_dirty_gfn(). Here just return.

If kvm_gmem_get_pfn() detects an hwpoisoned page, it returns -EHWPOISON
but it does not put back the reference that kvm_gmem_get_folio() had
grabbed. Add the forgotten folio_put().

Some allocations done by KVM are temporary, they are created as result
of program actions, but can't exists for arbitrary long times.
They should have been GFP_TEMPORARY (rip!).
OTOH, kvm-nx-lpage-recovery and kvm-pit kernel threads exist for as long
as VM exists but their task_struct memory is not accounted.
This is story for another day.

Bail from outer address space loop, not just the inner memslot loop, when
a "null" handler is encountered by __kvm_handle_hva_range(), which is the
intended behavior. On x86, which has multiple address spaces thanks to
SMM emulation, breaking from just the memslot loop results in undefined
behavior due to assigning the non-existent return value from kvm_null_fn()
to a bool.
In practice, the bug is benign as kvm_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end()
is the only caller that passes handler=kvm_null_fn, and it doesn't set
flush_on_ret, i.e. assigning garbage to r.ret is ultimately ignored. And
for most configuration the compiler elides the entire sequence, i.e. there
is no undefined behavior at runtime.

Use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() to access kvm->last_boosted_vcpu to ensure the
loads and stores are atomic. In the extremely unlikely scenario the
compiler tears the stores, it's theoretically possible for KVM to attempt
to get a vCPU using an out-of-bounds index, e.g. if the write is split
into multiple 8-bit stores, and is paired with a 32-bit load on a VM with
257 vCPUs:
CPU0 CPU1
last_boosted_vcpu = 0xff;
(last_boosted_vcpu = 0x100)
last_boosted_vcpu[15:8] = 0x01;
i = (last_boosted_vcpu = 0x1ff)
last_boosted_vcpu[7:0] = 0x00;
vcpu = kvm->vcpu_array[0x1ff];

KVM x86 misc changes for 6.10:
- Advertise the max mappable GPA in the "guest MAXPHYADDR" CPUID field, which
is unused by hardware, so that KVM can communicate its inability to map GPAs
that set bits 51:48 due to lack of 5-level paging. Guest firmware is
expected to use the information to safely remap BARs in the uppermost GPA
space, i.e to avoid placing a BAR at a legal, but unmappable, GPA.
- Use vfree() instead of kvfree() for allocations that always use vcalloc()
or __vcalloc().
- Don't completely ignore same-value writes to immutable feature MSRs, as
doing so results in KVM failing to reject accesses to MSR that aren't
supposed to exist given the vCPU model and/or KVM configuration.
- Don't mark APICv as being inhibited due to ABSENT if APICv is disabled
KVM-wide to avoid confusing debuggers (KVM will never bother clearing the
ABSENT inhibit, even if userspace enables in-kernel local APIC).
|
|
KVM cleanups for 6.10:
- Misc cleanups extracted from the "exit on missing userspace mapping" series,
which has been put on hold in anticipation of a "KVM Userfault" approach,
which should provide a superset of functionality.
- Remove kvm_make_all_cpus_request_except(), which got added to hack around an
AVIC bug, and then became dead code when a more robust fix came along.
- Fix a goof in the KVM_CREATE_GUEST_MEMFD documentation.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvmarm/kvmarm into HEAD
KVM/arm64 updates for Linux 6.10
- Move a lot of state that was previously stored on a per vcpu
basis into a per-CPU area, because it is only pertinent to the
host while the vcpu is loaded. This results in better state
tracking, and a smaller vcpu structure.
- Add full handling of the ERET/ERETAA/ERETAB instructions in
nested virtualisation. The last two instructions also require
emulating part of the pointer authentication extension.
As a result, the trap handling of pointer authentication has
been greattly simplified.
- Turn the global (and not very scalable) LPI translation cache
into a per-ITS, scalable cache, making non directly injected
LPIs much cheaper to make visible to the vcpu.
- A batch of pKVM patches, mostly fixes and cleanups, as the
upstreaming process seems to be resuming. Fingers crossed!
- Allocate PPIs and SGIs outside of the vcpu structure, allowing
for smaller EL2 mapping and some flexibility in implementing
more or less than 32 private IRQs.
- Purge stale mpidr_data if a vcpu is created after the MPIDR
map has been created.
- Preserve vcpu-specific ID registers across a vcpu reset.
- Various minor cleanups and improvements.

Remove kvm_make_all_cpus_request_except() as it effectively has no users,
and arguably should never have been added in the first place.
Commit 54163a346d4a ("KVM: Introduce kvm_make_all_cpus_request_except()")
added the "except" variation for use in SVM's AVIC update path, which used
it to skip sending a request to the current vCPU (commit 7d611233b016
("KVM: SVM: Disable AVIC before setting V_IRQ")).
But the AVIC usage of kvm_make_all_cpus_request_except() was essentially a
hack-a-fix that simply squashed the most likely scenario of a racy WARN
without addressing the underlying problem(s). Commit f1577ab21442 ("KVM:
SVM: svm_set_vintr don't warn if AVIC is active but is about to be
deactivated") eventually fixed the WARN itself, and the "except" usage was
subsequently dropped by df63202fe52b ("KVM: x86: APICv: drop immediate
APICv disablement on current vCPU").
That kvm_make_all_cpus_request_except() hasn't gained any users in the
last ~3 years isn't a coincidence. If a VM-wide broadcast *needs* to skip
the current vCPU, then odds are very good that there is underlying bug
that could be better fixed elsewhere.

A subsequent change to KVM/arm64 will necessitate walking the device
list outside of the kvm->lock. Prepare by converting to an rculist. This
has zero effect on the VM destruction path, as it is expected every
reader is backed by a reference on the kvm struct.
On the other hand, ensure a given device is completely destroyed before
dropping the kvm->lock in the release() path, as certain devices expect
to be a singleton (e.g. the vfio-kvm device).

Add support to MMU caches for initializing a page with a custom 64-bit
value, e.g. to pre-fill an entire page table with non-zero PTE values.
The functionality will be used by x86 to support Intel's TDX, which needs
to set bit 63 in all non-present PTEs in order to prevent !PRESENT page
faults from getting reflected into the guest (Intel's EPT Violation #VE
architecture made the less than brilliant decision of having the per-PTE
behavior be opt-out instead of opt-in).

The .change_pte() MMU notifier callback was intended as an
optimization. The original point of it was that KSM could tell KVM to flip
its secondary PTE to a new location without having to first zap it. At
the time there was also an .invalidate_page() callback; both of them were
*not* bracketed by calls to mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_{start,end}(),
and .invalidate_page() also doubled as a fallback implementation of
.change_pte().
Later on, however, both callbacks were changed to occur within an
invalidate_range_start/end() block.
In the case of .change_pte(), commit 6bdb913f0a70 ("mm: wrap calls to
set_pte_at_notify with invalidate_range_start and invalidate_range_end",
2012-10-09) did so to remove the fallback from .invalidate_page() to
.change_pte() and allow sleepable .invalidate_page() hooks.
This however made KVM's usage of the .change_pte() callback completely
moot, because KVM unmaps the sPTEs during .invalidate_range_start()
and therefore .change_pte() has no hope of finding a sPTE to change.
Drop the generic KVM code that dispatches to kvm_set_spte_gfn(), as
well as all the architecture specific implementations.

Explicit disallow activating a gfn_to_pfn_cache with an error gpa, i.e.
INVALID_GPA, to ensure that KVM doesn't mistake a GPA-based cache for an
HVA-based cache (KVM uses INVALID_GPA as a magic value to differentiate
between GPA-based and HVA-based caches).
WARN if KVM attempts to activate a cache with INVALID_GPA, purely so that
new caches need to at least consider what to do with a "bad" GPA, as all
existing usage of kvm_gpc_activate() guarantees gpa != INVALID_GPA. I.e.
removing the WARN in the future is completely reasonable if doing so would
yield cleaner/better code overall.

When activating a gfn_to_pfn_cache, verify that the offset+length is sane
and usable before marking the cache active. Letting __kvm_gpc_refresh()
detect the problem results in a cache being marked active without setting
the GPA (or any other fields), which in turn results in KVM trying to
refresh a cache with INVALID_GPA.
Attempting to refresh a cache with INVALID_GPA isn't functionally
problematic, but it runs afoul of the sanity check that exactly one of
GPA or userspace HVA is valid, i.e. that a cache is either GPA-based or
HVA-based.

Add a helper to check that the incoming length for a gfn_to_pfn_cache is
valid with respect to the cache's GPA and/or HVA. To avoid activating a
cache with a bogus GPA, a future fix will fork the page split check in
the inner refresh path into activate() and the public rerfresh() APIs, at
which point KVM will check the length in three separate places.
Deliberately keep the "page offset" logic open coded, as the only other
path that consumes the offset, __kvm_gpc_refresh(), already needs to
differentiate between GPA-based and HVA-based caches, and it's not obvious
that using a helper is a net positive in overall code readability.
Note, for GPA-based caches, this has a subtle side effect of using the GPA
instead of the resolved HVA in the check() path, but that should be a nop
as the HVA offset is derived from the GPA, i.e. the two offsets are
identical, barring a KVM bug.

KVM Xen and pfncache changes for 6.9:
- Rip out the half-baked support for using gfn_to_pfn caches to manage pages
that are "mapped" into guests via physical addresses.
- Add support for using gfn_to_pfn caches with only a host virtual address,
i.e. to bypass the "gfn" stage of the cache. The primary use case is
overlay pages, where the guest may change the gfn used to reference the
overlay page, but the backing hva+pfn remains the same.
- Add an ioctl() to allow mapping Xen's shared_info page using an hva instead
of a gpa, so that userspace doesn't need to reconfigure and invalidate the
cache/mapping if the guest changes the gpa (but userspace keeps the resolved
hva the same).
- When possible, use a single host TSC value when computing the deadline for
Xen timers in order to improve the accuracy of the timer emulation.
- Inject pending upcall events when the vCPU software-enables its APIC to fix
a bug where an upcall can be lost (and to follow Xen's behavior).
- Fall back to the slow path instead of warning if "fast" IRQ delivery of Xen
events fails, e.g. if the guest has aliased xAPIC IDs.
- Extend gfn_to_pfn_cache's mutex to cover (de)activation (in addition to
refresh), and drop a now-redundant acquisition of xen_lock (that was
protecting the shared_info cache) to fix a deadlock due to recursively
acquiring xen_lock.

KVM x86 misc changes for 6.9:
- Explicitly initialize a variety of on-stack variables in the emulator that
triggered KMSAN false positives (though in fairness in KMSAN, it's comically
difficult to see that the uninitialized memory is never truly consumed).
- Fix the deubgregs ABI for 32-bit KVM, and clean up code related to reading
DR6 and DR7.
- Rework the "force immediate exit" code so that vendor code ultimately
decides how and when to force the exit. This allows VMX to further optimize
handling preemption timer exits, and allows SVM to avoid sending a duplicate
IPI (SVM also has a need to force an exit).
- Fix a long-standing bug where kvm_has_noapic_vcpu could be left elevated if
vCPU creation ultimately failed, and add WARN to guard against similar bugs.
- Provide a dedicated arch hook for checking if a different vCPU was in-kernel
(for directed yield), and simplify the logic for checking if the currently
loaded vCPU is in-kernel.
- Misc cleanups and fixes.

KVM common MMU changes for 6.9:
- Harden KVM against underflowing the active mmu_notifier invalidation

- Fix a benign bug in __kvm_mmu_topup_memory_cache() where the object size
and number of objects parameters to kvmalloc_array() were swapped.

KVM async page fault changes for 6.9:
- Always flush the async page fault workqueue when a work item is being

workers running in KVM code when all references to KVM-the-module are gone,
i.e. to prevent a use-after-free if kvm.ko is unloaded.
- Grab a reference to the VM's mm_struct in the async #PF worker itself instead
of gifting the worker a reference, e.g. so that there's no need to remember
to *conditionally* clean up after the worker.

The locking on the gfn_to_pfn_cache is... interesting. And awful.
There is a rwlock in ->lock which readers take to ensure protection
against concurrent changes. But __kvm_gpc_refresh() makes assumptions
that certain fields will not change even while it drops the write lock
and performs MM operations to revalidate the target PFN and kernel
mapping.
Commit 93984f19e7bc ("KVM: Fully serialize gfn=>pfn cache refresh via
mutex") partly addressed that — not by fixing it, but by adding a new
mutex, ->refresh_lock. This prevented concurrent __kvm_gpc_refresh()
calls on a given gfn_to_pfn_cache, but is still only a partial solution.
There is still a theoretical race where __kvm_gpc_refresh() runs in
parallel with kvm_gpc_deactivate(). While __kvm_gpc_refresh() has
dropped the write lock, kvm_gpc_deactivate() clears the ->active flag
and unmaps ->khva. Then __kvm_gpc_refresh() determines that the previous
->pfn and ->khva are still valid, and reinstalls those values into the
structure. This leaves the gfn_to_pfn_cache with the ->valid bit set,
but ->active clear. And a ->khva which looks like a reasonable kernel
address but is actually unmapped.
All it takes is a subsequent reactivation to cause that ->khva to be
dereferenced. This would theoretically cause an oops which would look
something like this:
[1724749.564994] BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffaa3540ace0e0
[1724749.565039] RIP: 0010:__kvm_xen_has_interrupt+0x8b/0xb0
I say "theoretically" because theoretically, that oops that was seen in
production cannot happen. The code which uses the gfn_to_pfn_cache is
supposed to have its *own* locking, to further paper over the fact that
the gfn_to_pfn_cache's own papering-over (->refresh_lock) of its own
rwlock abuse is not sufficient.
For the Xen vcpu_info that external lock is the vcpu->mutex, and for the
shared info it's kvm->arch.xen.xen_lock. Those locks ought to protect
the gfn_to_pfn_cache against concurrent deactivation vs. refresh in all
but the cases where the vcpu or kvm object is being *destroyed*, in
which case the subsequent reactivation should never happen.
Theoretically.
Nevertheless, this locking abuse is awful and should be fixed, even if
no clear explanation can be found for how the oops happened. So expand
the use of the ->refresh_lock mutex to ensure serialization of
activate/deactivate vs. refresh and make the pfncache locking entirely
self-sufficient.
This means that a future commit can simplify the locking in the callers,
such as the Xen emulation code which has an outstanding problem with
recursive locking of kvm->arch.xen.xen_lock, which will no longer be
necessary.
The rwlock abuse described above is still not best practice, although
it's harmless now that the ->refresh_lock is held for the entire duration
while the offending code drops the write lock, does some other stuff,
then takes the write lock again and assumes nothing changed. That can
also be fixed^W cleaned up in a subsequent commit, but this commit is
a simpler basis for the Xen deadlock fix mentioned above.

The general expectation with debugfs is that any initialization failure
is nonfatal. Nevertheless, kvm_arch_create_vm_debugfs() allows
implementations to return an error and kvm_create_vm_debugfs() allows
that to fail VM creation.
Change to a void return to discourage architectures from making debugfs
failures fatal for the VM. Seems like everyone already had the right

Disallow creating read-only memslots that support GUEST_MEMFD, as
GUEST_MEMFD is fundamentally incompatible with KVM's semantics for
read-only memslots. Read-only memslots allow the userspace VMM to emulate
option ROMs by filling the backing memory with readable, executable code
and data, while triggering emulated MMIO on writes. GUEST_MEMFD doesn't
currently support writes from userspace and KVM doesn't support emulated
MMIO on private accesses, i.e. the guest can only ever read zeros, and
writes will always be treated as errors.

Plumb in a dedicated hook for querying whether or not a vCPU was preempted
in-kernel. Unlike literally every other architecture, x86's VMX can check
if a vCPU is in kernel context if and only if the vCPU is loaded on the
current pCPU.
x86's kvm_arch_vcpu_in_kernel() works around the limitation by querying
kvm_get_running_vcpu() and redirecting to vcpu->arch.preempted_in_kernel
as needed. But that's unnecessary, confusing, and fragile, e.g. x86 has
had at least one bug where KVM incorrectly used a stale
preempted_in_kernel.

When processing mmu_notifier invalidations for gpc caches, pre-check for
overlap with the invalidation event while holding gpc->lock for read, and
only take gpc->lock for write if the cache needs to be invalidated. Doing
a pre-check without taking gpc->lock for write avoids unnecessarily
contending the lock for unrelated invalidations, which is very beneficial
for caches that are heavily used (but rarely subjected to mmu_notifier
invalidations).

As noted in [1] the KVM_GUEST_USES_PFN usage flag is never set by any
callers of kvm_gpc_init(), and for good reason: the implementation is
incomplete/broken. And it's not clear that there will ever be a user of
KVM_GUEST_USES_PFN, as coordinating vCPUs with mmu_notifier events is
non-trivial.
Remove KVM_GUEST_USES_PFN and all related code, e.g. dropping
KVM_GUEST_USES_PFN also makes the 'vcpu' argument redundant, to avoid
having to reason about broken code as __kvm_gpc_refresh() evolves.
Moreover, all existing callers specify KVM_HOST_USES_PFN so the usage
check in hva_to_pfn_retry() and hence the 'usage' argument to
kvm_gpc_init() are also redundant.

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.

Get a reference to the target VM's address space in async_pf_execute()

i.e. if the process is exiting and all vCPUs are dead, then NOT doing

Handling the mm reference entirely within async_pf_execute() also
