Pull x86 kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini: "x86: - KVM currently invalidates the entirety of the page tables, not just those for the memslot being touched, when a memslot is moved or deleted. This does not traditionally have particularly noticeable overhead, but Intel's TDX will require the guest to re-accept private pages if they are dropped from the secure EPT, which is a non starter. Actually, the only reason why this is not already being done is a bug which was never fully investigated and caused VM instability with assigned GeForce GPUs, so allow userspace to opt into the new behavior. - Advertise AVX10.1 to userspace (effectively prep work for the "real" AVX10 functionality that is on the horizon) - Rework common MSR handling code to suppress errors on userspace accesses to unsupported-but-advertised MSRs This will allow removing (almost?) all of KVM's exemptions for userspace access to MSRs that shouldn't exist based on the vCPU model (the actual cleanup is non-trivial future work) - Rework KVM's handling of x2APIC ICR, again, because AMD (x2AVIC) splits the 64-bit value into the legacy ICR and ICR2 storage, whereas Intel (APICv) stores the entire 64-bit value at the ICR offset - Fix a bug where KVM would fail to exit to userspace if one was triggered by a fastpath exit handler - Add fastpath handling of HLT VM-Exit to expedite re-entering the guest when there's already a pending wake event at the time of the exit - Fix a WARN caused by RSM entering a nested guest from SMM with invalid guest state, by forcing the vCPU out of guest mode prior to signalling SHUTDOWN (the SHUTDOWN hits the VM altogether, not the nested guest) - Overhaul the "unprotect and retry" logic to more precisely identify cases where retrying is actually helpful, and to harden all retry paths against putting the guest into an infinite retry loop - Add support for yielding, e.g. to honor NEED_RESCHED, when zapping rmaps in the shadow MMU - Refactor pieces of the shadow MMU related to aging SPTEs in prepartion for adding multi generation LRU support in KVM - Don't stuff the RSB after VM-Exit when RETPOLINE=y and AutoIBRS is enabled, i.e. when the CPU has already flushed the RSB - Trace the per-CPU host save area as a VMCB pointer to improve readability and cleanup the retrieval of the SEV-ES host save area - Remove unnecessary accounting of temporary nested VMCB related allocations - Set FINAL/PAGE in the page fault error code for EPT violations if and only if the GVA is valid. If the GVA is NOT valid, there is no guest-side page table walk and so stuffing paging related metadata is nonsensical - Fix a bug where KVM would incorrectly synthesize a nested VM-Exit instead of emulating posted interrupt delivery to L2 - Add a lockdep assertion to detect unsafe accesses of vmcs12 structures - Harden eVMCS loading against an impossible NULL pointer deref (really truly should be impossible) - Minor SGX fix and a cleanup - Misc cleanups Generic: - Register KVM's cpuhp and syscore callbacks when enabling virtualization in hardware, as the sole purpose of said callbacks is to disable and re-enable virtualization as needed - Enable virtualization when KVM is loaded, not right before the first VM is created Together with the previous change, this simplifies a lot the logic of the callbacks, because their very existence implies virtualization is enabled - Fix a bug that results in KVM prematurely exiting to userspace for coalesced MMIO/PIO in many cases, clean up the related code, and add a testcase - Fix a bug in kvm_clear_guest() where it would trigger a buffer overflow _if_ the gpa+len crosses a page boundary, which thankfully is guaranteed to not happen in the current code base. Add WARNs in more helpers that read/write guest memory to detect similar bugs Selftests: - Fix a goof that caused some Hyper-V tests to be skipped when run on bare metal, i.e. NOT in a VM - Add a regression test for KVM's handling of SHUTDOWN for an SEV-ES guest - Explicitly include one-off assets in .gitignore. Past Sean was completely wrong about not being able to detect missing .gitignore entries - Verify userspace single-stepping works when KVM happens to handle a VM-Exit in its fastpath - Misc cleanups" * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm: (127 commits) Documentation: KVM: fix warning in "make htmldocs" s390: Enable KVM_S390_UCONTROL config in debug_defconfig selftests: kvm: s390: Add VM run test case KVM: SVM: let alternatives handle the cases when RSB filling is required KVM: VMX: Set PFERR_GUEST_{FINAL,PAGE}_MASK if and only if the GVA is valid KVM: x86/mmu: Use KVM_PAGES_PER_HPAGE() instead of an open coded equivalent KVM: x86/mmu: Add KVM_RMAP_MANY to replace open coded '1' and '1ul' literals KVM: x86/mmu: Fold mmu_spte_age() into kvm_rmap_age_gfn_range() KVM: x86/mmu: Morph kvm_handle_gfn_range() into an aging specific helper KVM: x86/mmu: Honor NEED_RESCHED when zapping rmaps and blocking is allowed KVM: x86/mmu: Add a helper to walk and zap rmaps for a memslot KVM: x86/mmu: Plumb a @can_yield parameter into __walk_slot_rmaps() KVM: x86/mmu: Move walk_slot_rmaps() up near for_each_slot_rmap_range() KVM: x86/mmu: WARN on MMIO cache hit when emulating write-protected gfn KVM: x86/mmu: Detect if unprotect will do anything based on invalid_list KVM: x86/mmu: Subsume kvm_mmu_unprotect_page() into the and_retry() version KVM: x86: Rename reexecute_instruction()=>kvm_unprotect_and_retry_on_failure() KVM: x86: Update retry protection fields when forcing retry on emulation failure KVM: x86: Apply retry protection to "unprotect on failure" path KVM: x86: Check EMULTYPE_WRITE_PF_TO_SP before unprotecting gfn ...

[tree-wide] finally take no_llseek out

2024-09-27T15:18:43Z

no_llseek had been defined to NULL two years ago, in commit 868941b14441 ("fs: remove no_llseek") To quote that commit, At -rc1 we'll need do a mechanical removal of no_llseek - git grep -l -w no_llseek | grep -v porting.rst | while read i; do sed -i '/\/d' $i done would do it. Unfortunately, that hadn't been done. Linus, could you do that now, so that we could finally put that thing to rest? All instances are of the form .llseek = no_llseek, so it's obviously safe.

KVM: use follow_pfnmap API

2024-09-17T08:06:59Z

Use the new pfnmap API to allow huge MMIO mappings for VMs. The rest work is done perfectly on the other side (host_pfn_mapping_level()).

KVM: Harden guest memory APIs against out-of-bounds accesses

2024-09-10T03:15:34Z

When reading or writing a guest page, WARN and bail if offset+len would result in a read to a different page so that KVM bugs are more likely to be detected, and so that any such bugs are less likely to escalate to an out-of-bounds access. E.g. if userspace isn't using guard pages and the target page is at the end of a memslot. Note, KVM already hardens itself in similar APIs, e.g. in the "cached" variants, it's just the vanilla APIs that are playing with fire.

KVM: Write the per-page "segment" when clearing (part of) a guest page

2024-09-10T03:15:34Z

Pass "seg" instead of "len" when writing guest memory in kvm_clear_guest(), as "seg" holds the number of bytes to write for the current page, while "len" holds the total bytes remaining. Luckily, all users of kvm_clear_guest() are guaranteed to not cross a page boundary, and so the bug is unhittable in the current code base.

KVM: Add arch hooks for enabling/disabling virtualization

2024-09-04T15:02:33Z

Add arch hooks that are invoked when KVM enables/disable virtualization. x86 will use the hooks to register an "emergency disable" callback, which is essentially an x86-specific shutdown notifier that is used when the kernel is doing an emergency reboot/shutdown/kexec. Add comments for the declarations to help arch code understand exactly when the callbacks are invoked. Alternatively, the APIs themselves could communicate most of the same info, but kvm_arch_pre_enable_virtualization() and kvm_arch_post_disable_virtualization() are a bit cumbersome, and make it a bit less obvious that they are intended to be implemented as a pair.

KVM: Add a module param to allow enabling virtualization when KVM is loaded

2024-09-04T15:02:33Z

Add an on-by-default module param, enable_virt_at_load, to let userspace force virtualization to be enabled in hardware when KVM is initialized, i.e. just before /dev/kvm is exposed to userspace. Enabling virtualization during KVM initialization allows userspace to avoid the additional latency when creating/destroying the first/last VM (or more specifically, on the 0=>1 and 1=>0 edges of creation/destruction). Now that KVM uses the cpuhp framework to do per-CPU enabling, the latency could be non-trivial as the cpuhup bringup/teardown is serialized across CPUs, e.g. the latency could be problematic for use case that need to spin up VMs quickly. Prior to commit 10474ae8945c ("KVM: Activate Virtualization On Demand"), KVM _unconditionally_ enabled virtualization during load, i.e. there's no fundamental reason KVM needs to dynamically toggle virtualization. These days, the only known argument for not enabling virtualization is to allow KVM to be autoloaded without blocking other out-of-tree hypervisors, and such use cases can simply change the module param, e.g. via command line. Note, the aforementioned commit also mentioned that enabling SVM (AMD's virtualization extensions) can result in "using invalid TLB entries". It's not clear whether the changelog was referring to a KVM bug, a CPU bug, or something else entirely. Regardless, leaving virtualization off by default is not a robust "fix", as any protection provided is lost the instant userspace creates the first VM.

KVM: Rename arch hooks related to per-CPU virtualization enabling

2024-09-04T15:02:33Z

Rename the per-CPU hooks used to enable virtualization in hardware to align with the KVM-wide helpers in kvm_main.c, and to better capture that the callbacks are invoked on every online CPU. No functional change intended.
