If MSR access is rejected by MSR filtering, kvm_set_msr()/kvm_get_msr() would return KVM_MSR_RET_FILTERED, and the return value is only handled well for rdmsr/wrmsr. However, some instruction emulation and state transition also use kvm_set_msr()/kvm_get_msr() to do msr access but may trigger some unexpected results if MSR access is rejected, E.g. RDPID emulation would inject a #UD but RDPID wouldn't cause a exit when RDPID is supported in hardware and ENABLE_RDTSCP is set. And it would also cause failure when load MSR at nested entry/exit. Since msr filtering is based on MSR bitmap, it is better to only do MSR filtering for rdmsr/wrmsr. Signed-off-by:

When RDTSCP is supported but RDPID is not supported in host, RDPID emulation is available. However, __kvm_get_msr() would only fail when RDTSCP/RDPID both are disabled in guest, so the emulator wouldn't inject a #UD when RDPID is disabled but RDTSCP is enabled in guest.

HSW_IN_TX* bits are used in generic code which are not supported on AMD. Worse, these bits overlap with AMD EventSelect[11:8] and hence using HSW_IN_TX* bits unconditionally in generic code is resulting in unintentional pmu behavior on AMD. For example, if EventSelect[11:8] is 0x2, pmc_reprogram_counter() wrongly assumes that HSW_IN_TX_CHECKPOINTED is set and thus forces sampling period to be 0. Also per the SDM, both bits 32 and 33 "may only be set if the processor supports HLE or RTM" and for "IN_TXCP (bit 33): this bit may only be set for IA32_PERFEVTSEL2." Opportunistically eliminate code redundancy, because if the HSW_IN_TX* bit is set in pmc->eventsel, it is already set in attr.config. Reported-by:

AMD EPYC CPUs never raise a #GP for a WRMSR to a PerfEvtSeln MSR. Some reserved bits are cleared, and some are not. Specifically, on Zen3/Milan, bits 19 and 42 are not cleared. When emulating such a WRMSR, KVM should not synthesize a #GP, regardless of which bits are set. However, undocumented bits should not be passed through to the hardware MSR. So, rather than checking for reserved bits and synthesizing a #GP, just clear the reserved bits. This may seem pedantic, but since KVM currently does not support the "Host/Guest Only" bits (41:40), it is necessary to clear these bits rather than synthesizing #GP, because some popular guests (e.g Linux) will set the "Host Only" bit even on CPUs that don't support EFER.SVME, and they don't expect a #GP.

Trace all APICv inhibit changes instead of just those that result in APICv being (un)inhibited, and log the current state. Debugging why APICv isn't working is frustrating as it's hard to see why APICv is still inhibited, and logging only the first inhibition means unnecessary onion peeling. Opportunistically drop the export of the tracepoint, it is not and should not be used by vendor code due to the need to serialize toggling via apicv_update_lock. Note, using the common flow means kvm_apicv_init() switched from atomic to non-atomic bitwise operations. The VM is unreachable at init, so non-atomic is perfectly ok. Signed-off-by:

Add set/clear wrappers for toggling APICv inhibits to make the call sites more readable, and opportunistically rename the inner helpers to align with the new wrappers and to make them more readable as well. Invert the flag from "activate" to "set"; activate is painfully ambiguous as it's not obvious if the inhibit is being activated, or if APICv is being activated, in which case the inhibit is being deactivated. For the functions that take @set, swap the order of the inhibit reason and @set so that the call sites are visually similar to those that bounce through the wrapper. Signed-off-by:

Use an enum for the APICv inhibit reasons, there is no meaning behind their values and they most definitely are not "unsigned longs". Rename the various params to "reason" for consistency and clarity (inhibit may be confused as a command, i.e. inhibit APICv, instead of the reason that is getting toggled/checked). No functional change intended. Signed-off-by:

There are two kinds of implicit supervisor access implicit supervisor access when CPL = 3 implicit supervisor access when CPL < 3 Current permission_fault() handles only the first kind for SMAP. But if the access is implicit when SMAP is on, data may not be read nor write from any user-mode address regardless the current CPL. So the second kind should be also supported. The first kind can be detect via CPL and access mode: if it is supervisor access and CPL = 3, it must be implicit supervisor access. But it is not possible to detect the second kind without extra information, so this patch adds an artificial PFERR_EXPLICIT_ACCESS into @access. This extra information also works for the first kind, so the logic is changed to use this information for both cases. The value of PFERR_EXPLICIT_ACCESS is deliberately chosen to be bit 48 which is in the most significant 16 bits of u64 and less likely to be forced to change due to future hardware uses it. This patch removes the call to ->get_cpl() for access mode is determined by @access. Not only does it reduce a function call, but also remove confusions when the permission is checked for nested TDP. The nested TDP shouldn't have SMAP checking nor even the L2's CPL have any bearing on it. The original code works just because it is always user walk for NPT and SMAP fault is not set for EPT in update_permission_bitmask. Signed-off-by:

Change the type of access u32 to u64 for FNAME(walk_addr) and ->gva_to_gpa(). The kinds of accesses are usually combinations of UWX, and VMX/SVM's nested paging adds a new factor of access: is it an access for a guest page table or for a final guest physical address. And SMAP relies a factor for supervisor access: explicit or implicit. So @access in FNAME(walk_addr) and ->gva_to_gpa() is better to include all these information to do the walk. Although @access(u32) has enough bits to encode all the kinds, this patch extends it to u64: o Extra bits will be in the higher 32 bits, so that we can easily obtain the traditional access mode (UWX) by converting it to u32. o Reuse the value for the access kind defined by SVM's nested paging (PFERR_GUEST_FINAL_MASK and PFERR_GUEST_PAGE_MASK) as @error_code in kvm_handle_page_fault().

It isn't OK to cache the dirty status of a page in internal structures for an indefinite period of time. Any time a vCPU exits the run loop to userspace might be its last; the VMM might do its final check of the dirty log, flush the last remaining dirty pages to the destination and complete a live migration. If we have internal 'dirty' state which doesn't get flushed until the vCPU is finally destroyed on the source after migration is complete, then we have lost data because that will escape the final copy. This problem already exists with the use of kvm_vcpu_unmap() to mark pages dirty in e.g. VMX nesting. Note that the actual Linux MM already considers the page to be dirty since we have a writeable mapping of it. This is just about the KVM dirty logging. For the nesting-style use cases (KVM_GUEST_USES_PFN) we will need to track which gfn_to_pfn_caches have been used and explicitly mark the corresponding pages dirty before returning to userspace. But we would have needed external tracking of that anyway, rather than walking the full list of GPCs to find those belonging to this vCPU which are dirty. So let's rely *solely* on that external tracking, and keep it simple rather than laying a tempting trap for callers to fall into. Signed-off-by:

Don't actually set a request bit in vcpu->requests when making a request purely to force a vCPU to exit the guest. Logging a request but not actually consuming it would cause the vCPU to get stuck in an infinite loop during KVM_RUN because KVM would see the pending request and bail from VM-Enter to service the request. Note, it's currently impossible for KVM to set KVM_REQ_GPC_INVALIDATE as nothing in KVM is wired up to set guest_uses_pa=true. But, it'd be all too easy for arch code to introduce use of kvm_gfn_to_pfn_cache_init() without implementing handling of the request, especially since getting test coverage of MMU notifier interaction with specific KVM features usually requires a directed test. Opportunistically rename gfn_to_pfn_cache_invalidate_start()'s wake_vcpus to evict_vcpus. The purpose of the request is to get vCPUs out of guest mode, it's supposed to _avoid_ waking vCPUs that are blocking. Opportunistically rename KVM_REQ_GPC_INVALIDATE to be more specific as to what it wants to accomplish, and to genericize the name so that it can used for similar but unrelated scenarios, should they arise in the future. Add a comment and documentation to explain why the "no action" request exists. Add compile-time assertions to help detect improper usage. Use the inner assertless helper in the one s390 path that makes requests without a hardcoded request. Cc: David Woodhouse <dwmw@amazon.co.uk> Signed-off-by:

Re-introduce zapping only leaf SPTEs in kvm_zap_gfn_range() and kvm_tdp_mmu_unmap_gfn_range(), this time without losing a pending TLB flush when processing multiple roots (including nested TDP shadow roots). Dropping the TLB flush resulted in random crashes when running Hyper-V Server 2019 in a guest with KSM enabled in the host (or any source of mmu_notifier invalidations, KSM is just the easiest to force). This effectively revert commits 873dd122 and fcb93eb6, and thus restores commit cf3e2642, plus this delta on top: bool kvm_tdp_mmu_zap_leafs(struct kvm *kvm, int as_id, gfn_t start, gfn_t end, struct kvm_mmu_page *root; for_each_tdp_mmu_root_yield_safe(kvm, root, as_id) - flush = tdp_mmu_zap_leafs(kvm, root, start, end, can_yield, false); + flush = tdp_mmu_zap_leafs(kvm, root, start, end, can_yield, flush); return flush; } Cc: Ben Gardon <bgardon@google.com> Signed-off-by:

Tie the lifetime the KVM module to the lifetime of each VM via kvm.users_count. This way anything that grabs a reference to the VM via kvm_get_kvm() cannot accidentally outlive the KVM module. Prior to this commit, the lifetime of the KVM module was tied to the lifetime of /dev/kvm file descriptors, VM file descriptors, and vCPU file descriptors by their respective file_operations "owner" field. This approach is insufficient because references grabbed via kvm_get_kvm() do not prevent closing any of the aforementioned file descriptors. This fixes a long standing theoretical bug in KVM that at least affects async page faults. kvm_setup_async_pf() grabs a reference via kvm_get_kvm(), and drops it in an asynchronous work callback. Nothing prevents the VM file descriptor from being closed and the KVM module from being unloaded before this callback runs.

KVM_CAP_DISABLE_QUIRKS is irrevocably broken. The capability does not advertise the set of quirks which may be disabled to userspace, so it is impossible to predict the behavior of KVM. Worse yet, KVM_CAP_DISABLE_QUIRKS will tolerate any value for cap->args[0], meaning it fails to reject attempts to set invalid quirk bits. The only valid workaround for the quirky quirks API is to add a new CAP. Actually advertise the set of quirks that can be disabled to userspace so it can predict KVM's behavior. Reject values for cap->args[0] that contain invalid bits. Finally, add documentation for the new capability and describe the existing quirks. Signed-off-by:
