Commit "KVM: MMU: Make tdp_enabled a mmu-context parameter" made real-mode set ->direct_map, and changed the code that merges in the memory type depend on direct_map instead of tdp_enabled. However, in this case what really matters is tdp, not direct_map, since tdp changes the pte format regardless of whether the mapping is direct or not. As a result, real-mode shadow mappings got corrupted with ept memory types. The result was a huge slowdown, likely due to the cache being disabled. Change it back as the simplest fix for the regression (real fix is to move all that to vmx code, and not use tdp_enabled as a synonym for ept). Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

This patch fixes a bug in KVM where it _always_ reports the support of the SVM feature to userspace. But KVM only supports SVM on AMD hardware and only when it is enabled in the kernel module. This patch fixes the wrong reporting. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

This patch adds INTR and NMI intercepts to the list of expected intercepts with an exit_int_info set. While this can't happen on bare metal it is architectural legal and may happen with KVMs SVM emulation. Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

With Nested Paging emulation the NX state between the two MMU contexts may differ. To make sure that always the right fault error code is recorded this patch moves the NX state into struct kvm_mmu so that the code can distinguish between L1 and L2 NX state.

Currently the KVM softmmu implementation can not shadow a 32 bit legacy or PAE page table with a long mode page table. This is a required feature for nested paging emulation because the nested page table must alway be in host format. So this patch implements the missing pieces to allow long mode page tables for page table types. Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

This patch factors out the direct-mapping paths of the mmu_alloc_roots function into a seperate function. This makes it a lot easier to avoid all the unnecessary checks done in the shadow path which may break when running direct. In fact, this patch already fixes a problem when running PAE guests on a PAE shadow page table. Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

This function is implemented to load the pdptr pointers of the currently running guest (l1 or l2 guest). Therefore it takes care about the current paging mode and can read pdptrs out of l2 guest physical memory.

This function need to be able to load the pdptrs from any mmu context currently in use. So change this function to take an kvm_mmu parameter to fit these needs. As a side effect this patch also moves the cached pdptrs from vcpu_arch into the kvm_mmu struct. Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

This patch introduces the kvm_read_guest_page_x86 function which reads from the physical memory of the guest. If the guest is running in guest-mode itself with nested paging enabled it will read from the guest's guest physical memory instead.

This is the first patch in the series towards a generic walk_addr implementation which could walk two-dimensional page tables in the end. In this first step the walk_addr function is renamed into walk_addr_generic which takes a mmu context as an additional parameter.

This patch introduces a struct with two new fields in vcpu_arch for x86: * fault.address * fault.error_code This will be used to correctly propagate page faults back into the guest when we could have either an ordinary page fault or a nested page fault. In the case of a nested page fault the fault-address is different from the original address that should be walked. So we need to keep track about the real fault-address.

Some logic of the init_kvm_softmmu function is required to build the Nested Nested Paging context. So factor the required logic into a seperate function and export it.

This patch changes the tdp_enabled flag from its global meaning to the mmu-context and renames it to direct_map there. This is necessary for Nested SVM with emulation of Nested Paging where we need an extra MMU context to shadow the Nested Nested Page Table.

The walk_addr function checks for !is_long_mode in its 64 bit version. But what is meant here is a check for pae paging.

This patch implements restoring of the correct rip, rsp, and rax after the svm emulation in KVM injected a selective_cr0 write intercept into the guest hypervisor. The problem was that the vmexit is emulated in the instruction emulation which later commits the registers right after the write-cr0 instruction. So the l1 guest will continue to run with the l2 rip, rsp and rax resulting in unpredictable behavior. This patch is not the final word, it is just an easy patch to fix the issue. The real fix will be done when the instruction emulator is made aware of nested virtualization. Until this is done this patch fixes the issue and provides an easy way to fix this in -stable too.

This patch fixes 32 bit legacy paging with NPT enabled. The mmu_check_root call on the top-level of the loop causes root_gfn to take values (in the tdp_enabled path) which are outside of guest memory. So the mmu_check_root call fails at some point in the loop interation causing the guest to tiple-fault. This patch changes the mmu_check_root calls to the places where they are really necessary. As a side-effect it introduces a check for the root of a pae page table too. Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>
