KVM x86 MMU changes for 6.17
- Exempt nested EPT from the the !USER + CR0.WP logic, as EPT doesn't interact
with CR0.WP.
- Move the TDX hardware setup code to tdx.c to better co-locate TDX code
and eliminate a few global symbols.
- Dynamically allocation the shadow MMU's hashed page list, and defer
allocating the hashed list until it's actually needed (the TDP MMU doesn't
use the list).
KVM x86 misc changes for 6.17
- Prevert the host's DEBUGCTL.FREEZE_IN_SMM (Intel only) when running the
guest. Failure to honor FREEZE_IN_SMM can bleed host state into the guest.
- Explicitly check vmcs12.GUEST_DEBUGCTL on nested VM-Enter (Intel only) to
prevent L1 from running L2 with features that KVM doesn't support, e.g. BTF.
- Intercept SPEC_CTRL on AMD if the MSR shouldn't exist according to the
vCPU's CPUID model.
- Rework the MSR interception code so that the SVM and VMX APIs are more or
less identical.
- Recalculate all MSR intercepts from the "source" on MSR filter changes, and
drop the dedicated "shadow" bitmaps (and their awful "max" size defines).
- WARN and reject loading kvm-amd.ko instead of panicking the kernel if the
nested SVM MSRPM offsets tracker can't handle an MSR.
- Advertise support for LKGS (Load Kernel GS base), a new instruction that's
loosely related to FRED, but is supported and enumerated independently.
- Fix a user-triggerable WARN that syzkaller found by stuffing INIT_RECEIVED,
a.k.a. WFS, and then putting the vCPU into VMX Root Mode (post-VMXON). Use
the same approach KVM uses for dealing with "impossible" emulation when
running a !URG guest, and simply wait until KVM_RUN to detect that the vCPU
has architecturally impossible state.
- Add KVM_X86_DISABLE_EXITS_APERFMPERF to allow disabling interception of
APERF/MPERF reads, so that a "properly" configured VM can "virtualize"
APERF/MPERF (with many caveats).
- Reject KVM_SET_TSC_KHZ if vCPUs have been created, as changing the "default"
frequency is unsupported for VMs with a "secure" TSC, and there's no known
use case for changing the default frequency for other VM types.
Allow a guest to read the physical IA32_APERF and IA32_MPERF MSRs
without interception.
The IA32_APERF and IA32_MPERF MSRs are not virtualized. Writes are not
handled at all. The MSR values are not zeroed on vCPU creation, saved
on suspend, or restored on resume. No accommodation is made for
processor migration or for sharing a logical processor with other
tasks. No adjustments are made for non-unit TSC multipliers. The MSRs
do not account for time the same way as the comparable PMU events,
whether the PMU is virtualized by the traditional emulation method or
the new mediated pass-through approach.
Nonetheless, in a properly constrained environment, this capability
can be combined with a guest CPUID table that advertises support for
CPUID.6:ECX.APERFMPERF[bit 0] to induce a Linux guest to report the
effective physical CPU frequency in /proc/cpuinfo. Moreover, there is
no performance cost for this capability.

Allocate VM structs via kvzalloc(), i.e. try to use a contiguous physical
allocation before falling back to __vmalloc(), to avoid the overhead of
establishing the virtual mappings. For non-debug builds, The SVM and VMX
(and TDX) structures are now just below 7000 bytes in the worst case
scenario (see below), i.e. are order-1 allocations, and will likely remain
that way for quite some time.
Add compile-time assertions in vendor code to ensure the size of the
structures, sans the memslot hash tables, are order-0 allocations, i.e.
are less than 4KiB. There's nothing fundamentally wrong with a larger
kvm_{svm,vmx,tdx} size, but given that the size of the structure (without
the memslots hash tables) is below 2KiB after 18+ years of existence,
more than doubling the size would be quite notable.
Add sanity checks on the memslot hash table sizes, partly to ensure they
aren't resized without accounting for the impact on VM structure size, and
partly to document that the majority of the size of VM structures comes
from the memslots.

Let userspace "disable" IPI virtualization for AVIC via the enable_ipiv
module param, by never setting IsRunning. SVM doesn't provide a way to
disable IPI virtualization in hardware, but by ensuring CPUs never see
IsRunning=1, every IPI in the guest (except for self-IPIs) will generate a
VM-Exit.
To avoid setting the real IsRunning bit, while still allowing KVM to use
each vCPU's entry to update GA log entries, simply maintain a shadow of
the entry, without propagating IsRunning updates to the real table when
IPI virtualization is disabled.
Providing a way to effectively disable IPI virtualization will allow KVM
to safely enable AVIC on hardware that is susceptible to erratum #1235,
which causes hardware to sometimes fail to detect that the IsRunning bit
has been cleared by software.
Note, the table _must_ be fully populated, as broadcast IPIs skip invalid
entries, i.e. won't generate VM-Exit if every entry is invalid, and so
simply pointing the VMCB at a common dummy table won't work.
Alternatively, KVM could allocate a shadow of the entire table, but that'd
be a waste of 4KiB since the per-vCPU entry doesn't actually consume an
additional 8 bytes of memory (vCPU structures are large enough that they
are backed by order-N pages).

vmx_disable_intercept_for_msr(vcpu, msr, type)
vmx_enable_intercept_for_msr(vcpu, msr, type)
vmx_set_intercept_for_msr(vcpu, msr, type, intercept)
to eventually replace SVM's single helper:
set_msr_interception(vcpu, msrpm, msr, allow_read, allow_write)
which is awkward to use (in all cases, KVM either applies the same logic
for both reads and writes, or intercepts one of read or write), and is
unintuitive due to using '0' to indicate interception should be *set*.
Keep the guts of the old API for the moment to avoid churning the MSR

Add macro-built helpers for testing, setting, and clearing MSRPM entries
without relying on precomputed offsets. This sets the stage for eventually
removing general KVM use of precomputed offsets, which are quite confusing
and rather inefficient for the vast majority of KVM's usage.
Outside of merging L0 and L1 bitmaps for nested SVM, using u32-indexed
offsets and accesses is at best unnecessary, and at worst introduces extra
operations to retrieve the individual bit from within the offset u32 value.
And simply calling them "offsets" is very confusing, as the "unit" of the
offset isn't immediately obvious.
Use the new helpers in set_msr_interception_bitmap() and
msr_write_intercepted() to verify the math and operations, but keep the
existing offset-based logic in set_msr_interception_bitmap() to sanity
check the "clear" and "set" operations. Manipulating MSR interceptions
isn't a hot path and no kernel release is ever expected to contain this
specific version of set_msr_interception_bitmap() (it will be removed

Pull more kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
Generic:
- Clean up locking of all vCPUs for a VM by using the *_nest_lock()
family of functions, and move duplicated code to virt/kvm/. kernel/
patches acked by Peter Zijlstra
- Add MGLRU support to the access tracking perf test
ARM fixes:
- Make the irqbypass hooks resilient to changes in the GSI<->MSI
routing, avoiding behind stale vLPI mappings being left behind. The
fix is to resolve the VGIC IRQ using the host IRQ (which is stable)
and nuking the vLPI mapping upon a routing change
- Close another VGIC race where vCPU creation races with VGIC
creation, leading to in-flight vCPUs entering the kernel w/o
private IRQs allocated
- Fix a build issue triggered by the recently added workaround for
Ampere's AC04_CPU_23 erratum
- Correctly sign-extend the VA when emulating a TLBI instruction
potentially targeting a VNCR mapping
- Avoid dereferencing a NULL pointer in the VGIC debug code, which
can happen if the device doesn't have any mapping yet
s390:
- Fix interaction between some filesystems and Secure Execution
- Some cleanups and refactorings, preparing for an upcoming big
series
x86:
- Wait for target vCPU to ack KVM_REQ_UPDATE_PROTECTED_GUEST_STATE
to fix a race between AP destroy and VMRUN
- Decrypt and dump the VMSA in dump_vmcb() if debugging enabled for
the VM
- Refine and harden handling of spurious faults
- Add support for ALLOWED_SEV_FEATURES
- Add #VMGEXIT to the set of handlers special cased for
CONFIG_RETPOLINE=y
- Treat DEBUGCTL[5:2] as reserved to pave the way for virtualizing
features that utilize those bits
- Don't account temporary allocations in sev_send_update_data()
- Add support for KVM_CAP_X86_BUS_LOCK_EXIT on SVM, via Bus Lock
Threshold
- Unify virtualization of IBRS on nested VM-Exit, and cross-vCPU
IBPB, between SVM and VMX
- Advertise support to userspace for WRMSRNS and PREFETCHI
- Rescan I/O APIC routes after handling EOI that needed to be
intercepted due to the old/previous routing, but not the
new/current routing
- Add a module param to control and enumerate support for device

Merge tag 'kvm-x86-misc-6.16' of https://github.com/kvm-x86/linux into HEAD
KVM x86 misc changes for 6.16:
- Unify virtualization of IBRS on nested VM-Exit, and cross-vCPU IBPB, between
SVM and VMX.
- Advertise support to userspace for WRMSRNS and PREFETCHI.
- Rescan I/O APIC routes after handling EOI that needed to be intercepted due
to the old/previous routing, but not the new/current routing.
- Add a module param to control and enumerate support for device posted
interrupts.
- Misc cleanups.
Add support for KVM_CAP_X86_BUS_LOCK_EXIT on SVM CPUs with Bus Lock
Threshold, which is close enough to VMX's Bus Lock Detection VM-Exit to
allow reusing KVM_CAP_X86_BUS_LOCK_EXIT.
The biggest difference between the two features is that Threshold is
fault-like, whereas Detection is trap-like. To allow the guest to make
forward progress, Threshold provides a per-VMCB counter which is
decremented every time a bus lock occurs, and a VM-Exit is triggered if
and only if the counter is '0'.
To provide Detection-like semantics, initialize the counter to '0', i.e.
exit on every bus lock, and when re-executing the guilty instruction, set
the counter to '1' to effectively step past the instruction.
Note, in the unlikely scenario that re-executing the instruction doesn't
trigger a bus lock, e.g. because the guest has changed memory types or
patched the guilty instruction, the bus lock counter will be left at '1',
i.e. the guest will be able to do a bus lock on a different instruction.
In a perfect world, KVM would ensure the counter is '0' if the guest has
made forward progress, e.g. if RIP has changed. But trying to close that
hole would incur non-trivial complexity, for marginal benefit; the intent
of KVM_CAP_X86_BUS_LOCK_EXIT is to allow userspace rate-limit bus locks,
not to allow for precise detection of problematic guest code. And, it's
simply not feasible to fully close the hole, e.g. if an interrupt arrives
before the original instruction can re-execute, the guest could step past
a different bus lock.

Set the magic BP_SPEC_REDUCE bit to mitigate SRSO when running VMs if and
only if KVM has at least one active VM. Leaving the bit set at all times
unfortunately degrades performance by a wee bit more than expected.
Use a dedicated spinlock and counter instead of hooking virtualization
enablement, as changing the behavior of kvm.enable_virt_at_load based on
SRSO_BP_SPEC_REDUCE is painful, and has its own drawbacks, e.g. could
result in performance issues for flows that are sensitive to VM creation
latency.
Defer setting BP_SPEC_REDUCE until VMRUN is imminent to avoid impacting
performance on CPUs that aren't running VMs, e.g. if a setup is using
housekeeping CPUs. Setting BP_SPEC_REDUCE in task context, i.e. without
blasting IPIs to all CPUs, also helps avoid serializing 1<=>N transitions
without incurring a gross amount of complexity (see the Link for details
on how ugly coordinating via IPIs gets).

Modify the function type of native_read_msr_safe() to:
int native_read_msr_safe(u32 msr, u64 *val)
This change makes the function return an error code instead of the
MSR value, aligning it with the type of native_write_msr_safe().
Consequently, their callers can check the results in the same way.
While at it, convert leftover MSR data type "unsigned int" to u32.

An MSR value is represented as a 64-bit unsigned integer, with existing
MSR instructions storing it in EDX:EAX as two 32-bit segments.
The new immediate form MSR instructions, however, utilize a 64-bit
general-purpose register to store the MSR value. To unify the usage of
all MSR instructions, let the default MSR access APIs accept an MSR
value as a single 64-bit argument instead of two 32-bit segments.
The dual 32-bit APIs are still available as convenient wrappers over the
APIs that handle an MSR value as a single 64-bit argument.
The following illustrates the updated derivation of the MSR write APIs:
__wrmsrq(u32 msr, u64 val)
/ \
/ \
native_wrmsrq(msr, val) native_wrmsr(msr, low, high)
|
|
native_write_msr(msr, val)
/ \
/ \
wrmsrq(msr, val) wrmsr(msr, low, high)
When CONFIG_PARAVIRT is enabled, wrmsrq() and wrmsr() are defined on top
of paravirt_write_msr():
paravirt_write_msr(u32 msr, u64 val)
/ \
/ \
wrmsrq(msr, val) wrmsr(msr, low, high)
paravirt_write_msr() invokes cpu.write_msr(msr, val), an indirect layer
of pv_ops MSR write call:
If on native:
cpu.write_msr = native_write_msr
If on Xen:
cpu.write_msr = xen_write_msr
Therefore, refactor pv_cpu_ops.write_msr{_safe}() to accept an MSR value
in a single u64 argument, replacing the current dual u32 arguments.
No functional change intended.

For historic reasons there are some TSC-related functions in the

To facilitate the relocation of rdtsc{,_ordered}() from <asm/msr.h>

<asm/msr.h> in <asm/tsc.h>, add an explicit <asm/msr.h> dependency
to the source files that reference definitions from <asm/msr.h>.

Both SVM and VMX have similar implementation for executing an IBPB
between running different vCPUs on the same CPU to create separate
prediction domains for different vCPUs.
For VMX, when the currently loaded VMCS is changed in
vmx_vcpu_load_vmcs(), an IBPB is executed if there is no 'buddy', which
is the case on vCPU load. The intention is to execute an IBPB when
switching vCPUs, but not when switching the VMCS within the same vCPU.
Executing an IBPB on nested transitions within the same vCPU is handled
separately and conditionally in nested_vmx_vmexit().
For SVM, the current VMCB is tracked on vCPU load and an IBPB is
executed when it is changed. The intention is also to execute an IBPB
when switching vCPUs, although it is possible that in some cases an IBBP
is executed when switching VMCBs for the same vCPU. Executing an IBPB on
nested transitions should be handled separately, and is proposed at [1].
Unify the logic by tracking the last loaded vCPU and execuintg the IBPB
on vCPU change in kvm_arch_vcpu_load() instead. When a vCPU is
destroyed, make sure all references to it are removed from any CPU. This
is similar to how SVM clears the current_vmcb tracking on vCPU
destruction. Remove the current VMCB tracking in SVM as it is no longer
required, as well as the 'buddy' parameter to vmx_vcpu_load_vmcs().

When freeing a vCPU and thus its VMCB, clear current_vmcb for all possible
CPUs, not just online CPUs, as it's theoretically possible a CPU could go
offline and come back online in conjunction with KVM reusing the page for
a new VMCB.

Stop ignoring DEBUGCTL[5:2] on AMD CPUs and instead treat them as reserved.
KVM has never properly virtualized AMD's legacy PBi bits, but did allow
the guest (and host userspace) to set the bits. To avoid breaking guests
when running on CPUs with BusLockTrap, which redefined bit 2 to BLCKDB and
made bits 5:3 reserved, a previous KVM change ignored bits 5:3, e.g. so
that legacy guest software wouldn't inadvertently enable BusLockTrap or
hit a VMRUN failure due to setting reserved.
To allow for virtualizing BusLockTrap and whatever future features may use
bits 5:3, treat bits 5:2 as reserved (and hope that doing so doesn't break
any existing guests).
