When marking a page dirty, complain about not having a running/loaded vCPU
if and only if the VM is still alive, i.e. its refcount is non-zero. This
will allow fixing a memory leak for x86 SEV-ES guests without hitting what
is effectively a false positive on the WARN.
For some SEV-ES VM-Exits, KVM keeps a writable mapping of a guest page
across an exit to userspace, and typically unmaps the page on the next
KVM_RUN. But if userspace never calls KVM_RUN after such an exit, then KVM
needs to unmap the page when the vCPU is destroyed, which in turn triggers
the WARN about not having a running vCPU.
Alternatively, SEV-ES could temporarily load the vCPU to suppress the WARN,
as is done in nested_vmx_free_vcpu() (but for completely unrelated reasons;
suppressing WARN from nested_put_vmcs12_pages() is pure happenstance). But
loading a vCPU during destruction is gross (ideally nVMX code would be
cleaned up), risks complicating the SEV-ES code (KVM would need to ensure
the temporarily load()+put() only runs when the vCPU isn't already loaded),
and is ultimately pointless.
The motivation for the WARN is to guard against KVM dirtying guest memory
without pushing the corresponding GFN to the active vCPU's dirty ring, e.g.
to ensure userspace doesn't miss a dirty page. But for the VM's refcount
to reach zero, there can't be _any_ userspace mappings to the dirty ring,
as mapping the dirty ring requires doing mmap() on the vCPU FD. I.e. if
userspace had a valid mapping for the dirty ring, then the vCPU file and
thus the owning VM would still be alive. And so since userspace can't
possibly reach the dirty ring, whether or not KVM technically "misses" a
push to the dirty ring is irrelevant.

kvm_reset_dirty_gfn() guards the gfn range with
if (!memslot || (offset + __fls(mask)) >= memslot->npages)
return;
but offset is u64 and the addition is unchecked. The check can be
silently bypassed by a u64 wrap.
The dirty ring backing those entries is MAP_SHARED at
KVM_DIRTY_LOG_PAGE_OFFSET of the vcpu fd, so the VMM can rewrite the
slot and offset fields of any entry between when the kernel pushes
them and when KVM_RESET_DIRTY_RINGS consumes them. On reset,
kvm_dirty_ring_reset() re-reads the values via READ_ONCE() and feeds
them straight back into this check; only the flags handshake is
treated as the handover, the slot/offset payload is taken on trust.
Crafting two entries
entry[i].offset = 0xffffffffffffffc1
entry[i+1].offset = 0
makes the coalescing loop in kvm_dirty_ring_reset() compute
delta = (s64)(0 - 0xffffffffffffffc1) = 63
which falls in [0, BITS_PER_LONG), so it folds entry[i+1] into the
existing mask by setting bit 63. The trailing kvm_reset_dirty_gfn()
call then sees offset = 0xffffffffffffffc1 and __fls(mask) = 63;
the sum is 0 in u64 and the bounds check passes.
That offset propagates into kvm_arch_mmu_enable_log_dirty_pt_masked()
unchanged. On the legacy MMU path -- kvm_memslots_have_rmaps() ==
true, i.e. shadow paging, any VM that has allocated shadow roots, or
a write-tracked slot -- it reaches gfn_to_rmap(), which indexes
slot->arch.rmap[0][] with a near-U64_MAX gfn. That is an
out-of-bounds load of a kvm_rmap_head, followed by a conditional
clear of PT_WRITABLE_MASK in whatever the loaded pointer points at.
The path is reachable from any process holding /dev/kvm.
Range-check offset on its own first, so the addition cannot wrap.
memslot->npages is bounded well below U64_MAX, so once offset <
npages holds, offset + __fls(mask) (with __fls(mask) < BITS_PER_LONG)
stays in range.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"Arm:
- Add support for tracing in the standalone EL2 hypervisor code,
which should help both debugging and performance analysis. This
uses the new infrastructure for 'remote' trace buffers that can be
exposed by non-kernel entities such as firmware, and which came
through the tracing tree
- Add support for GICv5 Per Processor Interrupts (PPIs), as the
starting point for supporting the new GIC architecture in KVM
- Finally add support for pKVM protected guests, where pages are
unmapped from the host as they are faulted into the guest and can
be shared back from the guest using pKVM hypercalls. Protected
guests are created using a new machine type identifier. As the
elusive guestmem has not yet delivered on its promises, anonymous
memory is also supported
This is only a first step towards full isolation from the host; for
example, the CPU register state and DMA accesses are not yet
isolated. Because this does not really yet bring fully what it
promises, it is hidden behind CONFIG_ARM_PKVM_GUEST +
'kvm-arm.mode=protected', and also triggers TAINT_USER when a VM is
created. Caveat emptor
- Rework the dreaded user_mem_abort() function to make it more
maintainable, reducing the amount of state being exposed to the
various helpers and rendering a substantial amount of state
immutable
- Expand the Stage-2 page table dumper to support NV shadow page
tables on a per-VM basis
- Tidy up the pKVM PSCI proxy code to be slightly less hard to
follow
- Fix both SPE and TRBE in non-VHE configurations so that they do not
generate spurious, out of context table walks that ultimately lead
to very bad HW lockups
- A small set of patches fixing the Stage-2 MMU freeing in error
cases
- Tighten-up accepted SMC immediate value to be only #0 for host
SMCCC calls
- The usual cleanups and other selftest churn
LoongArch:
- Use CSR_CRMD_PLV for kvm_arch_vcpu_in_kernel()
- Add DMSINTC irqchip in kernel support
RISC-V:
- Fix steal time shared memory alignment checks
- Fix vector context allocation leak
- Fix array out-of-bounds in pmu_ctr_read() and pmu_fw_ctr_read_hi()
- Fix double-free of sdata in kvm_pmu_clear_snapshot_area()
- Fix integer overflow in kvm_pmu_validate_counter_mask()
- Fix shift-out-of-bounds in make_xfence_request()
- Fix lost write protection on huge pages during dirty logging
- Split huge pages during fault handling for dirty logging
- Skip CSR restore if VCPU is reloaded on the same core
- Implement kvm_arch_has_default_irqchip() for KVM selftests
- Factored-out ISA checks into separate sources
- Added hideleg to struct kvm_vcpu_config
- Factored-out VCPU config into separate sources
- Support configuration of per-VM HGATP mode from KVM user space
s390:
- Support for ESA (31-bit) guests inside nested hypervisors
- Remove restriction on memslot alignment, which is not needed
anymore with the new gmap code
- Fix LPSW/E to update the bear (which of course is the breaking
event address register)
x86:
- Shut up various UBSAN warnings on reading module parameter before
they were initialized
- Don't zero-allocate page tables that are used for splitting
hugepages in the TDP MMU, as KVM is guaranteed to set all SPTEs in
the page table and thus write all bytes
- As an optimization, bail early when trying to unsync 4KiB mappings
if the target gfn can just be mapped with a 2MiB hugepage
x86 generic:
- Copy single-chunk MMIO write values into struct kvm_vcpu (more
precisely struct kvm_mmio_fragment) to fix use-after-free stack
bugs where KVM would dereference stack pointer after an exit to
userspace
- Clean up and comment the emulated MMIO code to try to make it
easier to maintain (not necessarily "easy", but "easier")
- Move VMXON+VMXOFF and EFER.SVME toggling out of KVM (not *all* of
VMX and SVM enabling) as it is needed for trusted I/O
- Advertise support for AVX512 Bit Matrix Multiply (BMM) instructions
- Immediately fail the build if a required #define is missing in one
of KVM's headers that is included multiple times
- Reject SET_GUEST_DEBUG with -EBUSY if there's an already injected
exception, mostly to prevent syzkaller from abusing the uAPI to
trigger WARNs, but also because it can help prevent userspace from
unintentionally crashing the VM
- Exempt SMM from CPUID faulting on Intel, as per the spec
- Misc hardening and cleanup changes
x86 (AMD):
- Fix and optimize IRQ window inhibit handling for AVIC; make it
per-vCPU so that KVM doesn't prematurely re-enable AVIC if multiple
vCPUs have to-be-injected IRQs
- Clean up and optimize the OSVW handling, avoiding a bug in which
KVM would overwrite state when enabling virtualization on multiple
CPUs in parallel. This should not be a problem because OSVW should
usually be the same for all CPUs
- Drop a WARN in KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_REG_REGION where KVM complains
about a "too large" size based purely on user input
- Clean up and harden the pinning code for KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_REG_REGION
- Disallow synchronizing a VMSA of an already-launched/encrypted
vCPU, as doing so for an SNP guest will crash the host due to an
RMP violation page fault
- Overhaul KVM's APIs for detecting SEV+ guests so that VM-scoped
queries are required to hold kvm->lock, and enforce it by lockdep.
Fix various bugs where sev_guest() was not ensured to be stable for
the whole duration of a function or ioctl
- Convert a pile of kvm->lock SEV code to guard()
- Play nicer with userspace that does not enable
KVM_CAP_EXCEPTION_PAYLOAD, for which KVM needs to set CR2 and DR6
as a response to ioctls such as KVM_GET_VCPU_EVENTS (even if the
payload would end up in EXITINFO2 rather than CR2, for example).
Only set CR2 and DR6 when consumption of the payload is imminent,
but on the other hand force delivery of the payload in all paths
where userspace retrieves CR2 or DR6
- Use vcpu->arch.cr2 when updating vmcb12's CR2 on nested #VMEXIT
instead of vmcb02->save.cr2. The value is out of sync after a
save/restore or after a #PF is injected into L2
- Fix a class of nSVM bugs where some fields written by the CPU are
not synchronized from vmcb02 to cached vmcb12 after VMRUN, and so
are not up-to-date when saved by KVM_GET_NESTED_STATE
- Fix a class of bugs where the ordering between KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE
and KVM_SET_{S}REGS could cause vmcb02 to be incorrectly
initialized after save+restore
- Add a variety of missing nSVM consistency checks
- Fix several bugs where KVM failed to correctly update VMCB fields
on nested #VMEXIT
- Fix several bugs where KVM failed to correctly synthesize #UD or
#GP for SVM-related instructions
- Add support for save+restore of virtualized LBRs (on SVM)
- Refactor various helpers and macros to improve clarity and
(hopefully) make the code easier to maintain
- Aggressively sanitize fields when copying from vmcb12, to guard
against unintentionally allowing L1 to utilize yet-to-be-defined
features
- Fix several bugs where KVM botched rAX legality checks when
emulating SVM instructions. There are remaining issues in that KVM
doesn't handle size prefix overrides for 64-bit guests
- Fail emulation of VMRUN/VMLOAD/VMSAVE if mapping vmcb12 fails
instead of somewhat arbitrarily synthesizing #GP (i.e. don't double
down on AMD's architectural but sketchy behavior of generating #GP
for "unsupported" addresses)
- Cache all used vmcb12 fields to further harden against TOCTOU bugs
x86 (Intel):
- Drop obsolete branch hint prefixes from the VMX instruction macros
- Use ASM_INPUT_RM() in __vmcs_writel() to coerce clang into using a
register input when appropriate
- Code cleanups
guest_memfd:
- Don't mark guest_memfd folios as accessed, as guest_memfd doesn't
support reclaim, the memory is unevictable, and there is no storage
to write back to
LoongArch selftests:
- Add KVM PMU test cases
s390 selftests:
- Enable more memory selftests
x86 selftests:
- Add support for Hygon CPUs in KVM selftests
- Fix a bug in the MSR test where it would get false failures on
AMD/Hygon CPUs with exactly one of RDPID or RDTSCP
- Add an MADV_COLLAPSE testcase for guest_memfd as a regression test
for a bug where the kernel would attempt to collapse guest_memfd
folios against KVM's will"

KVM x86 VMXON and EFER.SVME extraction for 7.1
Move _only_ VMXON+VMXOFF and EFER.SVME toggling out of KVM (versus all of VMX
and SVM enabling) out of KVM and into the core kernel so that non-KVM TDX
enabling, e.g. for trusted I/O, can make SEAMCALLs without needing to ensure
KVM is fully loaded.
TIO isn't a hypervisor, and isn't trying to be a hypervisor. Specifically, TIO
should _never_ have it's own VMCSes (that are visible to the host; the
TDX-Module has it's own VMCSes to do SEAMCALL/SEAMRET), and so there is simply
no reason to move that functionality out of KVM.
With that out of the way, dealing with VMXON/VMXOFF and EFER.SVME is a fairly
simple refcounting game.

HEAD
KVM generic changes for 7.0
- Remove a subtle pseudo-overlay of kvm_stats_desc, which, aside from being
unnecessary and confusing, triggered compiler warnings due to
-Wflex-array-member-not-at-end.
- Document that vcpu->mutex is take outside of kvm->slots_lock and
kvm->slots_arch_lock, which is intentional and desirable despite being
rather unintuitive.

Move kvm_rebooting, which is only read by x86, to KVM x86 so that it can
be moved again to core x86 code. Add a "shutdown" arch hook to facilate
setting the flag in KVM x86, along with a pile of comments to provide more
context around what KVM x86 is doing and why.

Add '__read_mostly' to the halt polling parameters (halt_poll_ns,
halt_poll_ns_grow, halt_poll_ns_grow_start, halt_poll_ns_shrink) since
they are frequently read in hot paths (e.g., vCPU halt handling) but only
occasionally updated via sysfs. This improves cache locality on SMP
systems.
Conversely, mark 'allow_unsafe_mappings' and 'enable_virt_at_load' with
'__ro_after_init', as they are set only during module initialization via
kernel command line or early sysfs writes and remain constant thereafter.
This enhances security by preventing runtime modification and enables
compiler optimizations.

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using
git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'
to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from

avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)

KVM mediated PMU support for 6.20
Add support for mediated PMUs, where KVM gives the guest full ownership of PMU
hardware (contexted switched around the fastpath run loop) and allows direct
access to data MSRs and PMCs (restricted by the vPMU model), but intercepts
access to control registers, e.g. to enforce event filtering and to prevent the
guest from profiling sensitive host state.
To keep overall complexity reasonable, mediated PMU usage is all or nothing
for a given instance of KVM (controlled via module param). The Mediated PMU
is disabled default, partly to maintain backwards compatilibity for existing
setup, partly because there are tradeoffs when running with a mediated PMU that
may be non-starters for some use cases, e.g. the host loses the ability to
profile guests with mediated PMUs, the fastpath run loop is also a blind spot,
entry/exit transitions are more expensive, etc.
Versus the emulated PMU, where KVM is "just another perf user", the mediated
PMU delivers more accurate profiling and monitoring (no risk of contention and
thus dropped events), with significantly less overhead (fewer exits and faster
emulation/programming of event selectors) E.g. when running Specint-2017 on
a single-socket Sapphire Rapids with 56 cores and no-SMT, and using perf from
within the guest:
Perf command:
a. basic-sampling: perf record -F 1000 -e 6-instructions -a --overwrite
b. multiplex-sampling: perf record -F 1000 -e 10-instructions -a --overwrite
Guest performance overhead:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Test case | emulated vPMU | all passthrough | passthrough with |
| | | | event filters |
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
| basic-sampling | 33.62% | 4.24% | 6.21% |
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
| multiplex-sampling | 79.32% | 7.34% | 10.45% |

KVM x86 APIC-ish changes for 6.20
- Fix a benign bug where KVM could use the wrong memslots (ignored SMM) when
creating a vCPU-specific mapping of guest memory.
- Clean up KVM's handling of marking mapped vCPU pages dirty.
- Drop a pile of *ancient* sanity checks hidden behind in KVM's unused
ASSERT() macro, most of which could be trivially triggered by the guest
and/or user, and all of which were useless.
- Fold "struct dest_map" into its sole user, "struct rtc_status", to make it
more obvious what the weird parameter is used for, and to allow burying the
RTC shenanigans behind CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC=y.
- Bury all of ioapic.h and KVM_IRQCHIP_KERNEL behind CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC=y.
- Add a regression test for recent APICv update fixes.
- Rework KVM's handling of VMCS updates while L2 is active to temporarily
switch to vmcs01 instead of deferring the update until the next nested
VM-Exit. The deferred updates approach directly contributed to several
bugs, was proving to be a maintenance burden due to the difficulty in
auditing the correctness of deferred updates, and was polluting
"struct nested_vmx" with a growing pile of booleans.
- Handle "hardware APIC ISR", a.k.a. SVI, updates in kvm_apic_update_apicv()
to consolidate the updates, and to co-locate SVI updates with the updates
for KVM's own cache of ISR information.
- Drop a dead function declaration.

KVM guest_memfd changes for 6.20
- Remove kvm_gmem_populate()'s preparation tracking and half-baked hugepage
handling, and instead rely on SNP (the only user of the tracking) to do its
own tracking via the RMP.
- Retroactively document and enforce (for SNP) that KVM_SEV_SNP_LAUNCH_UPDATE
and KVM_TDX_INIT_MEM_REGION require the source page to be 4KiB aligned, to
avoid non-trivial complexity for a non-existent usecase (and because
in-place conversion simply can't support unaligned sources).
- When populating guest_memfd memory, GUP the source page in common code and
pass the refcounted page to the vendor callback, instead of letting vendor
code do the heavy lifting. Doing so avoids a looming deadlock bug with
in-place due an AB-BA conflict betwee mmap_lock and guest_memfd's filemap
invalidate lock.
|
|
Currently the post-populate callbacks handle copying source pages into
private GPA ranges backed by guest_memfd, where kvm_gmem_populate()
acquires the filemap invalidate lock, then calls a post-populate
callback which may issue a get_user_pages() on the source pages prior to
copying them into the private GPA (e.g. TDX).
This will not be compatible with in-place conversion, where the
userspace page fault path will attempt to acquire the filemap invalidate
lock while holding the mm->mmap_lock, leading to a potential ABBA
deadlock.
Address this by hoisting the GUP above the filemap invalidate lock so
that these page faults path can be taken early, prior to acquiring the
filemap invalidate lock.
It's not currently clear whether this issue is reachable with the
current implementation of guest_memfd, which doesn't support in-place
conversion, however it does provide a consistent mechanism to provide
stable source/target PFNs to callbacks rather than punting to
vendor-specific code, which allows for more commonality across
architectures, which may be worthwhile even without in-place conversion.
As part of this change, also begin enforcing that the 'src' argument to
kvm_gmem_populate() must be page-aligned, as this greatly reduces the
complexity around how the post-populate callbacks are implemented, and
since no current in-tree users support using a non-page-aligned 'src'
argument.

guest_memfd currently uses the folio uptodate flag to track:
1) whether or not a page has been cleared before initial usage
2) whether or not the architecture hooks have been issued to put the
page in a private state as defined by the architecture
In practice, (2) is only actually being tracked for SEV-SNP VMs, and
there do not seem to be any plans/reasons that would suggest this will
change in the future, so this additional tracking/complexity is not
really providing any general benefit to guest_memfd users. On the other
hand, future plans around in-place conversion and hugepage support will
make the burden of tracking this information within guest_memfd even more
complex.
With in-place conversion and hugepage support, the plan is to use the
per-folio uptodate flag purely to track the initial clearing of folios,
whereas conversion operations could trigger multiple transitions between
'prepared' and 'unprepared' and thus need separate tracking. Since
preparation generally happens during fault time, i.e. on the "read-side"
of any VM-wide locks that might protect state tracked by guest_memfd,
supporting concurrent handling of page faults would likely require more
complex locking schemes if the "preparedness" state were tracked by
guest_memfd, i.e. if it needs to be updated as part of handling the fault.
Instead of keeping this current/future complexity within guest_memfd for
what is essentially just SEV-SNP, just drop the tracking for (2) and have
the arch-specific preparation hooks get triggered unconditionally on
every fault so the arch-specific hooks can check the preparation state
directly and decide whether or not a folio still needs additional
preparation. In the case of SEV-SNP, the preparation state is already
checked again via the preparation hooks to avoid double-preparation, so
nothing extra needs to be done to update the handling of things there.

kvm_gmem_populate(), and the associated post-populate callbacks, have
some limited support for dealing with guests backed by hugepages by
passing the order information along to each post-populate callback and
iterating through the pages passed to kvm_gmem_populate() in
hugepage-chunks.
However, guest_memfd doesn't yet support hugepages, and in most cases
additional changes in the kvm_gmem_populate() path would also be needed
to actually allow for this functionality.
This makes the existing code unnecessarily complex, and makes changes
difficult to work through upstream due to theoretical impacts on
hugepage support that can't be considered properly without an actual
hugepage implementation to reference. So for now, remove what's there
so changes for things like in-place conversion can be
implemented/reviewed more efficiently.

When deassigning a KVM_IRQFD, don't clobber the irqfd's copy of the IRQ's
routing entry as doing so breaks kvm_arch_irq_bypass_del_producer() on x86
and arm64, which explicitly look for KVM_IRQ_ROUTING_MSI. Instead, to
handle a concurrent routing update, verify that the irqfd is still active
before consuming the routing information. As evidenced by the x86 and
arm64 bugs, and another bug in kvm_arch_update_irqfd_routing() (see below),
clobbering the entry type without notifying arch code is surprising and
error prone.
As a bonus, checking that the irqfd is active provides a convenient
location for documenting _why_ KVM must not consume the routing entry for
an irqfd that is in the process of being deassigned: once the irqfd is
deleted from the list (which happens *before* the eventfd is detached), it
will no longer receive updates via kvm_irq_routing_update(), and so KVM
could deliver an event using stale routing information (relative to
KVM_SET_GSI_ROUTING returning to userspace).
As an even better bonus, explicitly checking for the irqfd being active
fixes a similar bug to the one the clobbering is trying to prevent: if an
irqfd is deactivated, and then its routing is changed,
kvm_irq_routing_update() won't invoke kvm_arch_update_irqfd_routing()
(because the irqfd isn't in the list). And so if the irqfd is in bypass
mode, IRQs will continue to be posted using the old routing information.
As for kvm_arch_irq_bypass_del_producer(), clobbering the routing type
results in KVM incorrectly keeping the IRQ in bypass mode, which is
especially problematic on AMD as KVM tracks IRQs that are being posted to
a vCPU in a list whose lifetime is tied to the irqfd.
Without the help of KASAN to detect use-after-free, the most common
sympton on AMD is a NULL pointer deref in amd_iommu_update_ga() due to
the memory for irqfd structure being re-allocated and zeroed, resulting
in irqfd->irq_bypass_data being NULL when read by
avic_update_iommu_vcpu_affinity():

On Intel and arm64, the bug is less noisy, as the end result is that the
device keeps posting IRQs to the vCPU even after it's been deassigned.
Note, the worst of the breakage can be traced back to commit cb210737675e
("KVM: Pass new routing entries and irqfd when updating IRTEs"), as before
that commit KVM would pull the routing information from the per-VM routing
table. But as above, similar bugs have existed since support for IRQ
bypass was added. E.g. if a routing change finished before irq_shutdown()
invoked kvm_arch_irq_bypass_del_producer(), VMX and SVM would see stale
routing information and potentially leave the irqfd in bypass mode.
Alternatively, x86 could be fixed by explicitly checking irq_bypass_vcpu
instead of irq_entry.type in kvm_arch_irq_bypass_del_producer(), and arm64
could be modified to utilize irq_bypass_vcpu in a similar manner. But (a)
that wouldn't fix the routing updates bug, and (b) fixing core code doesn't
preclude x86 (or arm64) from adding such code as a sanity check (spoiler
alert).
