This patch adds a new capability KVM_CAP_SMALLER_MAXPHYADDR which allows userspace to query if the underlying architecture would support GUEST_MAXPHYADDR < HOST_MAXPHYADDR and hence act accordingly (e.g. qemu can decide if it should warn for -cpu ..,phys-bits=X) The complications in this patch are due to unexpected (but documented) behaviour we see with NPF vmexit handling in AMD processor. If SVM is modified to add guest physical address checks in the NPF and guest #PF paths, we see the followning error multiple times in the 'access' test in kvm-unit-tests: test pte.p pte.36 pde.p: FAIL: pte 2000021 expected 2000001 Dump mapping: address: 0x123400000000 ------L4: 24c3027 ------L3: 24c4027 ------L2: 24c5021 ------L1: 1002000021 This is because the PTE's accessed bit is set by the CPU hardware before the NPF vmexit. This is handled completely by hardware and cannot be fixed in software. Therefore, availability of the new capability depends on a boolean variable allow_smaller_maxphyaddr which is set individually by VMX and SVM init routines. On VMX it's always set to true, on SVM it's only set to true when NPT is not enabled.

Ignore non-present page faults, since those cannot have reserved bits set. When running access.flat with "-cpu Haswell,phys-bits=36", the number of trapped page faults goes down from 8872644 to 3978948.

Check guest physical address against its maximum, which depends on the guest MAXPHYADDR. If the guest's physical address exceeds the maximum (i.e. has reserved bits set), inject a guest page fault with PFERR_RSVD_MASK set. This has to be done both in the EPT violation and page fault paths, as there are complications in both cases with respect to the computation of the correct error code. For EPT violations, unfortunately the only possibility is to emulate, because the access type in the exit qualification might refer to an access to a paging structure, rather than to the access performed by the program. Trapping page faults instead is needed in order to correct the error code, but the access type can be obtained from the original error code and passed to gva_to_gpa. The corrections required in the error code are subtle. For example, imagine that a PTE for a supervisor page has a reserved bit set. On a supervisor-mode access, the EPT violation path would trigger. However, on a user-mode access, the processor will not notice the reserved bit and not include PFERR_RSVD_MASK in the error code.

We would like to introduce a callback to update the #PF intercept when CPUID changes. Just reuse update_bp_intercept since VMX is already using update_exception_bitmap instead of a bespoke function. While at it, remove an unnecessary assignment in the SVM version, which is already done in the caller (kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_set_guest_debug) and has nothing to do with the exception bitmap.

Intel processors of various generations have supported 36, 39, 46 or 52 bits for physical addresses. Until IceLake introduced MAXPHYADDR==52, running on a machine with higher MAXPHYADDR than the guest more or less worked, because software that relied on reserved address bits (like KVM) generally used bit 51 as a marker and therefore the page faults where generated anyway. Unfortunately this is not true anymore if the host MAXPHYADDR is 52, and this can cause problems when migrating from a MAXPHYADDR<52 machine to one with MAXPHYADDR==52. Typically, the latter are machines that support 5-level page tables, so they can be identified easily from the LA57 CPUID bit. When that happens, the guest might have a physical address with reserved bits set, but the host won't see that and trap it. Hence, we need to check page faults' physical addresses against the guest's maximum physical memory and if it's exceeded, we need to add the PFERR_RSVD_MASK bits to the page fault error code. This patch does this for the MMU's page walks. The next patches will ensure that the correct exception and error code is produced whenever no host-reserved bits are set in page table entries.

This patch adds two helper functions that will be used to support virtualizing MAXPHYADDR in both kvm-intel.ko and kvm.ko. kvm_fixup_and_inject_pf_error() injects a page fault for a user-specified GVA, while kvm_mmu_is_illegal_gpa() checks whether a GPA exceeds vCPU address limits.

The mmu_check_root() check in fast_pgd_switch() seems to be superfluous: when GPA is outside of the visible range cached_root_available() will fail for non-direct roots (as we can't have a matching one on the list) and we don't seem to care for direct ones. Also, raising #TF immediately when a non-existent GFN is written to CR3 doesn't seem to mach architectural behavior. Drop the check.

Make nSVM code resemble nVMX where nested_vmx_load_cr3() is used on both guest->host and host->guest transitions. Also, we can now eliminate unconditional kvm_mmu_reset_context() and speed things up. Note, nVMX has two different paths: load_vmcs12_host_state() and nested_vmx_restore_host_state() and the later is used to restore from 'partial' switch to L2, it always uses kvm_mmu_reset_context(). nSVM doesn't have this yet. Also, nested_svm_vmexit()'s return value is almost always ignored nowadays.

Undesired triple fault gets injected to L1 guest on SVM when L2 is launched with certain CR3 values. #TF is raised by mmu_check_root() check in fast_pgd_switch() and the root cause is that when kvm_set_cr3() is called from nested_prepare_vmcb_save() with NPT enabled CR3 points to a nGPA so we can't check it with kvm_is_visible_gfn(). Using generic kvm_set_cr3() when switching to nested guest is not a great idea as we'll have to distinguish between 'real' CR3s and 'nested' CR3s to e.g. not call kvm_mmu_new_pgd() with nGPA. Following nVMX implement nested-specific nested_svm_load_cr3() doing the job. To support the change, nested_svm_load_cr3() needs to be re-ordered with nested_svm_init_mmu_context(). Note: the current implementation is sub-optimal as we always do TLB flush/MMU sync but this is still an improvement as we at least stop doing kvm_mmu_reset_context().

kvm_mmu_new_pgd() refers to arch.mmu and at this point it still references arch.guest_mmu while arch.root_mmu is expected. Note, the change is effectively a nop: when !npt_enabled, nested_svm_uninit_mmu_context() does nothing (as we don't do nested_svm_init_mmu_context()) and with npt_enabled we don't do kvm_set_cr3(). However, it will matter when we move the call to kvm_mmu_new_pgd into nested_svm_load_cr3(). No functional change intended.

Clean up the minimums in mmu_topup_memory_caches() to document the driving mechanisms behind the minimums. Now that encountering an empty cache is unlikely to trigger BUG_ON(), it is less dangerous to be more precise when defining the minimums. For rmaps, the logic is 1 parent PTE per level, plus a single rmap, and prefetched rmaps. The extra objects in the current '8 + PREFETCH' minimum came about due to an abundance of paranoia in commit c41ef344 ("KVM: MMU: increase per-vcpu rmap cache alloc size"), i.e. it could have increased the minimum to 2 rmaps. Furthermore, the unexpected extra rmap case was killed off entirely by commits f759e2b4 ("KVM: MMU: avoid pte_list_desc running out in kvm_mmu_pte_write") and f5a1e9f8 ("KVM: MMU: remove call to kvm_mmu_pte_write from walk_addr"). For the so called page cache, replace '8' with 2*PT64_ROOT_MAX_LEVEL. The 2x multiplier is needed because the cache is used for both shadow pages and gfn arrays for indirect MMUs. And finally, for page headers, replace '4' with PT64_ROOT_MAX_LEVEL. Note, KVM now supports 5-level paging, i.e. the old minimums that used a baseline derived from 4-level paging were technically wrong. But, KVM always allocates roots in a separate flow, e.g. it's impossible in the current implementation to actually need 5 new shadow pages in a single flow. Use PT64_ROOT_MAX_LEVEL unmodified instead of subtracting 1, as the direct usage is likely more intuitive to uninformed readers, and the inflated minimum is unlikely to affect functionality in practice.

Topup memory caches after walking the GVA->GPA translation during a shadow page fault, there is no need to ensure the caches are full when walking the GVA. As of commit f5a1e9f8 ("KVM: MMU: remove call to kvm_mmu_pte_write from walk_addr"), the FNAME(walk_addr) flow no longer add rmaps via kvm_mmu_pte_write(). This avoids allocating memory in the case that the GVA is unmapped in the guest, and also provides a paper trail of why/when the memory caches need to be filled.
