Non secure software has no practical need to traverse the caches by set/way in the first place - Add support for taking stage-2 access faults in parallel. This was an accidental omission in the original parallel faults implementation, but should provide a marginal improvement to machines w/o FEAT_HAFDBS (such as hardware from the fruit company) - A preamble to adding support for nested virtualization to KVM, including vEL2 register state, rudimentary nested exception handling and masking unsupported features for nested guests - Fixes to the PSCI relay that avoid an unexpected host SVE trap when resuming a CPU when running pKVM - VGIC maintenance interrupt support for the AIC - Improvements to the arch timer emulation, primarily aimed at reducing the trap overhead of running nested - Add CONFIG_USERFAULTFD to the KVM selftests config fragment in the interest of CI systems - Avoid VM-wide stop-the-world operations when a vCPU accesses its own redistributor - Serialize when toggling CPACR_EL1.SMEN to avoid unexpected exceptions in the host - Aesthetic and comment/kerneldoc fixes - Drop the vestiges of the old Columbia mailing list and add [Oliver] as co-maintainer RISC-V: - Fix wrong usage of PGDIR_SIZE instead of PUD_SIZE - Correctly place the guest in S-mode after redirecting a trap to the guest - Redirect illegal instruction traps to guest - SBI PMU support for guest s390: - Sort out confusion between virtual and physical addresses, which currently are the same on s390 - A new ioctl that performs cmpxchg on guest memory - A few fixes x86: - Change tdp_mmu to a read-only parameter - Separate TDP and shadow MMU page fault paths - Enable Hyper-V invariant TSC control - Fix a variety of APICv and AVIC bugs, some of them real-world, some of them affecting architecurally legal but unlikely to happen in practice - Mark APIC timer as expired if its in one-shot mode and the count underflows while the vCPU task was being migrated - Advertise support for Intel's new fast REP string features - Fix a double-shootdown issue in the emergency reboot code - Ensure GIF=1 and disable SVM during an emergency reboot, i.e. give SVM similar treatment to VMX - Update Xen's TSC info CPUID sub-leaves as appropriate - Add support for Hyper-V's extended hypercalls, where "support" at this point is just forwarding the hypercalls to userspace - Clean up the kvm->lock vs. kvm->srcu sequences when updating the PMU and MSR filters - One-off fixes and cleanups - Fix and cleanup the range-based TLB flushing code, used when KVM is running on Hyper-V - Add support for filtering PMU events using a mask.

2023-02-07KVM: s390: disable migration mode when dirty tracking is disabledNico Boehr2-6/+16
Migration mode is a VM attribute which enables tracking of changes in storage attributes (PGSTE). It assumes dirty tracking is enabled on all memslots to keep a dirty bitmap of pages with changed storage attributes. When enabling migration mode, we currently check that dirty tracking is enabled for all memslots. However, userspace can disable dirty tracking without disabling migration mode. Since migration mode is pointless with dirty tracking disabled, disable migration mode whenever userspace disables dirty tracking on any slot. Also update the documentation to clarify that dirty tracking must be enabled when enabling migration mode, which is already enforced by the code in kvm_s390_vm_start_migration(). Also highlight in the documentation for KVM_S390_GET_CMMA_BITS that it can now fail with -EINVAL when dirty tracking is disabled while migration mode is on. Move all the error codes to a table so this stays readable. To disable migration mode, slots_lock should be held, which is taken in kvm_set_memory_region() and thus held in kvm_arch_prepare_memory_region(). Restructure the prepare code a bit so all the sanity checking is done before disabling migration mode. This ensures migration mode isn't disabled when some sanity check fails.

2023-01-24KVM: x86/pmu: Introduce masked events to the pmu event filterAaron Lewis1-7/+71
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.

2023-01-13KVM: x86: Honor architectural behavior for aliased 8-bit APIC IDsSean Christopherson1-0/+11
Apply KVM's hotplug hack if and only if userspace has enabled 32-bit IDs for x2APIC. If 32-bit IDs are not enabled, disable the optimized map to honor x86 architectural behavior if multiple vCPUs shared a physical APIC ID. As called out in the changelog that added the hack, all CPUs whose (possibly truncated) APIC ID matches the target are supposed to receive the IPI. KVM intentionally differs from real hardware, because real hardware (Knights Landing) does just "x2apic_id & 0xff" to decide whether to accept the interrupt in xAPIC mode and it can deliver one interrupt to more than one physical destination, e.g. 0x123 to 0x123 and 0x23. Applying the hack even when x2APIC is not fully enabled means KVM doesn't correctly handle scenarios where the guest has aliased xAPIC IDs across multiple vCPUs, as only the vCPU with the lowest vCPU ID will receive any interrupts. It's extremely unlikely any real world guest aliases APIC IDs, or even modifies APIC IDs, but KVM's behavior is arbitrary, e.g. the lowest vCPU ID "wins" regardless of which vCPU is "aliasing" and which vCPU is "normal". Furthermore, the hack is _not_ guaranteed to work! The hack works if and only if the optimized APIC map is successfully allocated. If the map allocation fails (unlikely), KVM will fall back to its unoptimized behavior, which _does_ honor the architectural behavior. Pivot on 32-bit x2APIC IDs being enabled as that is required to take advantage of the hotplug hack (see kvm_apic_state_fixup()), i.e. won't break existing setups unless they are way, way off in the weeds. And an entry in KVM's errata to document the hack. Alternatively, KVM could provide an actual x2APIC quirk and document the hack that way, but there's unlikely to ever be a use case for disabling the quirk. Go the errata route to avoid having to validate a quirk no one cares about.

In commit 14243b387137a ("KVM: x86/xen: Add KVM_IRQ_ROUTING_XEN_EVTCHN and event channel delivery") the clever version of me left some helpful notes for those who would come after him: /* * For the irqfd workqueue, using the main kvm->lock mutex is * fine since this function is invoked from kvm_set_irq() with * no other lock held, no srcu.

Passing the host topology to the guest is almost certainly wrong and will confuse the scheduler. In addition, several fields of these CPUID leaves vary on each processor; it is simply impossible to return the right values from KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID in such a way that they can be passed to KVM_SET_CPUID2. The values that will most likely prevent confusion are all zeroes. Userspace will have to override it anyway if it wishes to present a specific topology to the guest.

Although the KVM API says that a write to a RO memslot must result in a KVM_EXIT_MMIO describing the write, the arm64 architecture doesn't provide the *data* written by a Stage-1 page table walk (we only get the address). Since there isn't much userspace can do with so little information anyway, document the fact that such an access results in a guest exception, not an exit. This is consistent with the guest being terminally broken anyway. Reviewed-by: Oliver Upton <oliver.upton@linux.dev> Signed-off-by: Marc Zyngier <maz@kernel.org>
2022-12-29KVM: Drop kvm_count_lock and instead protect kvm_usage_count with kvm_lockIsaku Yamahata1-9/+10
Drop kvm_count_lock and instead protect kvm_usage_count with kvm_lock now that KVM hooks CPU hotplug during the ONLINE phase, which can sleep. Previously, KVM hooked the STARTING phase, which is not allowed to sleep and thus could not take kvm_lock (a mutex). This effectively allows the task that's initiating hardware enabling/disabling to preempted and/or migrated. Note, the Documentation/virt/kvm/locking.rst statement that kvm_count_lock is "raw" because hardware enabling/disabling needs to be atomic with respect to migration is wrong on multiple fronts. First, while regular spinlocks can be preempted, the task holding the lock cannot be migrated. Second, preventing migration is not required. on_each_cpu() disables preemption, which ensures that cpus_hardware_enabled correctly reflects hardware state. The task may be preempted/migrated between bumping kvm_usage_count and invoking on_each_cpu(), but that's perfectly ok as kvm_usage_count is still protected, e.g. other tasks that call hardware_enable_all() will be blocked until the preempted/migrated owner exits its critical section. KVM does have lockless accesses to kvm_usage_count in the suspend/resume flows, but those are safe because all tasks must be frozen prior to suspending CPUs, and a task cannot be frozen while it holds one or more locks (userspace tasks are frozen via a fake signal). Preemption doesn't need to be explicitly disabled in the hotplug path. The hotplug thread is pinned to the CPU that's being hotplugged, and KVM only cares about having a stable CPU, i.e. to ensure hardware is enabled on the correct CPU. Lockep, i.e. check_preemption_disabled(), plays nice with this state too, as is_percpu_thread() is true for the hotplug thread.

KVM rejects attempts to load vendor modules if a different module has already been loaded, but doesn't handle the case where multiple vendor modules are loaded at the same time, and module_init() doesn't run under the global module_mutex. Note, in practice, this is likely a benign bug as no platform exists that supports both SVM and VMX, i.e. barring a weird VM setup, one of the vendor modules is guaranteed to fail a support check before modifying common KVM state. Alternatively, KVM could perform an atomic CMPXCHG on .hardware_enable, but that comes with its own ugliness as it would require setting .hardware_enable before success is guaranteed, e.g. attempting to load the "wrong" could result in spurious failure to load the "right" module. Introduce a new mutex as using kvm_lock is extremely deadlock prone due to kvm_lock being taken under cpus_write_lock(), and in the future, under under cpus_read_lock(). Any operation that takes cpus_read_lock() while holding kvm_lock would potentially deadlock, e.g. kvm_timer_init() takes cpus_read_lock() to register a callback. In theory, KVM could avoid such problematic paths, i.e. do less setup under kvm_lock, but avoiding all calls to cpus_read_lock() is subtly difficult and thus fragile. E.g. updating static calls also acquires cpus_read_lock(). Inverting the lock ordering, i.e. always taking kvm_lock outside cpus_read_lock(), is not a viable option as kvm_lock is taken in various callbacks that may be invoked under cpus_read_lock(), e.g. x86's kvmclock_cpufreq_notifier(). The lockdep splat below is dependent on future patches to take cpus_read_lock() in hardware_enable_all(), but as above, deadlock is already is already possible. ====================================================== WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected 6.0.0-smp--7ec93244f194-init2 #27 Tainted: G O ------------------------------------------------------ stable/251833 is trying to acquire lock: ffffffffc097ea28 (kvm_lock){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: hardware_enable_all+0x1f/0xc0 [kvm] but task is already holding lock: ffffffffa2456828 (cpu_hotplug_lock){++++}-{0:0}, at: hardware_enable_all+0xf/0xc0 [kvm] which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #1 (cpu_hotplug_lock){++++}-{0:0}: cpus_read_lock+0x2a/0xa0 __cpuhp_setup_state+0x2b/0x60 __kvm_x86_vendor_init+0x16a/0x1870 [kvm] kvm_x86_vendor_init+0x23/0x40 [kvm] 0xffffffffc0a4d02b do_one_initcall+0x110/0x200 do_init_module+0x4f/0x250 load_module+0x1730/0x18f0 __se_sys_finit_module+0xca/0x100 __x64_sys_finit_module+0x1d/0x20 do_syscall_64+0x3d/0x80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd -> #0 (kvm_lock){+.+.}-{3:3}: __lock_acquire+0x16f4/0x30d0 lock_acquire+0xb2/0x190 __mutex_lock+0x98/0x6f0 mutex_lock_nested+0x1b/0x20 hardware_enable_all+0x1f/0xc0 [kvm] kvm_dev_ioctl+0x45e/0x930 [kvm] __se_sys_ioctl+0x77/0xc0 __x64_sys_ioctl+0x1d/0x20 do_syscall_64+0x3d/0x80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd other info that might help us debug this: Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(cpu_hotplug_lock); lock(kvm_lock); lock(cpu_hotplug_lock); lock(kvm_lock); *** DEADLOCK *** 1 lock held by stable/251833: #0: ffffffffa2456828 (cpu_hotplug_lock){++++}-{0:0}, at: hardware_enable_all+0xf/0xc0 [kvm] Signed-off-by: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com> Message-Id: <20221130230934.1014142-16-seanjc@google.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

2022-11-30KVM: x86/xen: Allow XEN_RUNSTATE_UPDATE flag behaviour to be configuredDavid Woodhouse1-6/+28
Closer inspection of the Xen code shows that we aren't supposed to be using the XEN_RUNSTATE_UPDATE flag unconditionally. It should be explicitly enabled by guests through the HYPERVISOR_vm_assist hypercall. If we randomly set the top bit of ->state_entry_time for a guest that hasn't asked for it and doesn't expect it, that could make the runtimes fail to add up and confuse the guest. Without the flag it's perfectly safe for a vCPU to read its own vcpu_runstate_info; just not for one vCPU to read *another's*. I briefly pondered adding a word for the whole set of VMASST_TYPE_* flags but the only one we care about for HVM guests is this, so it seemed a bit pointless.
