When zapping a TDP MMU root, perform the zap in two passes to avoid zapping an entire top-level SPTE while holding RCU, which can induce RCU stalls. In the first pass, zap SPTEs at PG_LEVEL_1G, and then zap top-level entries in the second pass. With 4-level paging, zapping a PGD that is fully populated with 4kb leaf SPTEs take up to ~7 or so seconds (time varies based on kernel config, number of (v)CPUs, etc...). With 5-level paging, that time can balloon well into hundreds of seconds. Before remote TLB flushes were omitted, the problem was even worse as waiting for all active vCPUs to respond to the IPI introduced significant overhead for VMs with large numbers of vCPUs. By zapping 1gb SPTEs (both shadow pages and hugepages) in the first pass, the amount of work that is done without dropping RCU protection is strictly bounded, with the worst case latency for a single operation being less than 100ms. Zapping at 1gb in the first pass is not arbitrary. First and foremost, KVM relies on being able to zap 1gb shadow pages in a single shot when when repacing a shadow page with a hugepage. Zapping a 1gb shadow page that is fully populated with 4kb dirty SPTEs also triggers the worst case latency due writing back the struct page accessed/dirty bits for each 4kb page, i.e. the two-pass approach is guaranteed to work so long as KVM can cleany zap a 1gb shadow page. rcu: INFO: rcu_sched self-detected stall on CPU rcu: 52-....: (20999 ticks this GP) idle=7be/1/0x4000000000000000 softirq=15759/15759 fqs=5058 (t=21016 jiffies g=66453 q=238577) NMI backtrace for cpu 52 Call Trace: ... mark_page_accessed+0x266/0x2f0 kvm_set_pfn_accessed+0x31/0x40 handle_removed_tdp_mmu_page+0x259/0x2e0 __handle_changed_spte+0x223/0x2c0 handle_removed_tdp_mmu_page+0x1c1/0x2e0 __handle_changed_spte+0x223/0x2c0 handle_removed_tdp_mmu_page+0x1c1/0x2e0 __handle_changed_spte+0x223/0x2c0 zap_gfn_range+0x141/0x3b0 kvm_tdp_mmu_zap_invalidated_roots+0xc8/0x130 kvm_mmu_zap_all_fast+0x121/0x190 kvm_mmu_invalidate_zap_pages_in_memslot+0xe/0x10 kvm_page_track_flush_slot+0x5c/0x80 kvm_arch_flush_shadow_memslot+0xe/0x10 kvm_set_memslot+0x172/0x4e0 __kvm_set_memory_region+0x337/0x590 kvm_vm_ioctl+0x49c/0xf80 Reported-by:David Matlack <dmatlack@google.com> Cc: Ben Gardon <bgardon@google.com> Cc: Mingwei Zhang <mizhang@google.com> Signed-off-by:

Allow yielding when zapping SPTEs after the last reference to a valid root is put. Because KVM must drop all SPTEs in response to relevant mmu_notifier events, mark defunct roots invalid and reset their refcount prior to zapping the root. Keeping the refcount elevated while the zap is in-progress ensures the root is reachable via mmu_notifier until the zap completes and the last reference to the invalid, defunct root is put. Allowing kvm_tdp_mmu_put_root() to yield fixes soft lockup issues if the root in being put has a massive paging structure, e.g. zapping a root that is backed entirely by 4kb pages for a guest with 32tb of memory can take hundreds of seconds to complete. watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#49 stuck for 485s!

Yield-unfriendly iteration uses for_each_tdp_mmu_root(), which doesn't take a reference to each root (it requires mmu_lock be held for the entire duration of the walk). tdp_mmu_next_root() is used only by the yield-friendly iterator. tdp_mmu_zap_root_work() is explicitly yield friendly. kvm_mmu_free_roots() => mmu_free_root_page() is a much bigger fan-out, but is still yield-friendly in all call sites, as all callers can be traced back to some combination of vcpu_run(), kvm_destroy_vm(), and/or kvm_create_vm().

Use the system worker threads to zap the roots invalidated by the TDP MMU's "fast zap" mechanism, implemented by kvm_tdp_mmu_invalidate_all_roots(). At this point, apart from allowing some parallelism in the zapping of roots, the workqueue is a glorified linked list: work items are added and flushed entirely within a single kvm->slots_lock critical section. However, the workqueue fixes a latent issue where kvm_mmu_zap_all_invalidated_roots() assumes that it owns a reference to all invalid roots; therefore, no one can set the invalid bit outside kvm_mmu_zap_all_fast(). Putting the invalidated roots on a linked list... erm, on a workqueue ensures that tdp_mmu_zap_root_work() only puts back those extra references that kvm_mmu_zap_all_invalidated_roots() had gifted to it.

Defer TLB flushes to the caller when freeing TDP MMU shadow pages instead of immediately flushing. Because the shadow pages are freed in an RCU callback, so long as at least one CPU holds RCU, all CPUs are protected. For vCPUs running in the guest, i.e. consuming TLB entries, KVM only needs to ensure the caller services the pending TLB flush before dropping its RCU protections. I.e. use the caller's RCU as a proxy for all vCPUs running in the guest. Deferring the flushes allows batching flushes, e.g. when installing a 1gb hugepage and zapping a pile of SPs. And when zapping an entire root, deferring flushes allows skipping the flush entirely (because flushes are not needed in that case). Avoiding flushes when zapping an entire root is especially important as synchronizing with other CPUs via IPI after zapping every shadow page can cause significant performance issues for large VMs. The issue is exacerbated by KVM zapping entire top-level entries without dropping RCU protection, which can lead to RCU stalls even when zapping roots backing relatively "small" amounts of guest memory, e.g. 2tb. Removing the IPI bottleneck largely mitigates the RCU issues, though it's likely still a problem for 5-level paging. A future patch will further address the problem by zapping roots in multiple passes to avoid holding RCU for an extended duration. Reviewed-by:

Zap only leaf SPTEs in the TDP MMU's zap_gfn_range(), and rename various functions accordingly. When removing mappings for functional correctness (except for the stupid VFIO GPU passthrough memslots bug), zapping the leaf SPTEs is sufficient as the paging structures themselves do not point at guest memory and do not directly impact the final translation (in the TDP MMU). Note, this aligns the TDP MMU with the legacy/full MMU, which zaps only the rmaps, a.k.a. leaf SPTEs, in kvm_zap_gfn_range() and kvm_unmap_gfn_range(). Signed-off-by:

Now that all callers of zap_gfn_range() hold mmu_lock for write, drop support for zapping with mmu_lock held for read. That all callers hold mmu_lock for write isn't a random coincidence; now that the paths that need to zap _everything_ have their own path, the only callers left are those that need to zap for functional correctness. And when zapping is required for functional correctness, mmu_lock must be held for write, otherwise the caller has no guarantees about the state of the TDP MMU page tables after it has run, e.g. the SPTE(s) it zapped can be immediately replaced by a vCPU faulting in a page.

Add a dedicated helper for zapping a TDP MMU root, and use it in the three flows that do "zap_all" and intentionally do not do a TLB flush if SPTEs are zapped (zapping an entire root is safe if and only if it cannot be in use by any vCPU). Because a TLB flush is never required, unconditionally pass "false" to tdp_mmu_iter_cond_resched() when potentially yielding. Opportunistically document why KVM must not yield when zapping roots that are being zapped by kvm_tdp_mmu_put_root(), i.e. roots whose refcount has reached zero, and further harden the flow to detect improper KVM behavior with respect to roots that are supposed to be unreachable. In addition to hardening zapping of roots, isolating zapping of roots will allow future simplification of zap_gfn_range() by having it zap only leaf SPTEs, and by removing its tricky "zap all" heuristic. By having all paths that truly need to free _all_ SPs flow through the dedicated root zapper, the generic zapper can be freed of those concerns. Signed-off-by:

Drop RCU protection after processing each root when handling MMU notifier hooks that aren't the "unmap" path, i.e. aren't zapping. Temporarily drop RCU to let RCU do its thing between roots, and to make it clear that there's no special behavior that relies on holding RCU across all roots. Currently, the RCU protection is completely superficial, it's necessary only to make rcu_dereference() of SPTE pointers happy. A future patch will rely on holding RCU as a proxy for vCPUs in the guest, e.g. to ensure shadow pages aren't freed before all vCPUs do a TLB flush (or rather, acknowledge the need for a flush), but in that case RCU needs to be held until the flush is complete if and only if the flush is needed because a shadow page may have been removed. And except for the "unmap" path, MMU notifier events cannot remove SPs (don't toggle PRESENT bit, and can't change the PFN for a SP). Signed-off-by:

Look for a !leaf=>leaf conversion instead of a PFN change when checking if a SPTE change removed a TDP MMU shadow page. Convert the PFN check into a WARN, as KVM should never change the PFN of a shadow page (except when its being zapped or replaced). From a purely theoretical perspective, it's not illegal to replace a SP with a hugepage pointing at the same PFN. In practice, it's impossible as that would require mapping guest memory overtop a kernel-allocated SP. Either way, the check is odd. Signed-off-by:

After this patch, all readers except kvm_tdp_mmu_zap_invalidated_roots() treat refcount=0/valid, refcount=0/invalid and refcount=1/invalid in exactly the same way. kvm_tdp_mmu_zap_invalidated_roots() is different but it also does not acquire a reference to the invalid root, and it cannot see refcount=0/invalid because it is guaranteed to run after kvm_tdp_mmu_invalidate_all_roots().

Assert that mmu_lock is held for write by users of the yield-unfriendly TDP iterator. The nature of a shared walk means that the caller needs to play nice with other tasks modifying the page tables, which is more or less the same thing as playing nice with yielding. Theoretically, KVM could gain a flow where it could legitimately take mmu_lock for read in a non-preemptible context, but that's highly unlikely and any such case should be viewed with a fair amount of scrutiny.

Explicitly ignore the result of zap_gfn_range() when putting the last reference to a TDP MMU root, and add a pile of comments to formalize the TDP MMU's behavior of deferring TLB flushes to alloc/reuse. Note, this only affects the !shared case, as zap_gfn_range() subtly never returns true for "flush" as the flush is handled by tdp_mmu_zap_spte_atomic(). Putting the root without a flush is ok because even if there are stale references to the root in the TLB, they are unreachable because KVM will not run the guest with the same ASID without first flushing (where ASID in this context refers to both SVM's explicit ASID and Intel's implicit ASID that is constructed from VPID+PCID+EPT4A+etc...).

Fix misleading and arguably wrong comments in the TDP MMU's fast zap flow. The comments, and the fact that actually zapping invalid roots was added separately, strongly suggests that zapping invalid roots is an optimization and not required for correctness. That is a lie. KVM _must_ zap invalid roots before returning from kvm_mmu_zap_all_fast(), because when it's called from kvm_mmu_invalidate_zap_pages_in_memslot(), KVM is relying on it to fully remove all references to the memslot. Once the memslot is gone, KVM's mmu_notifier hooks will be unable to find the stale references as the hva=>gfn translation is done via the memslots. If KVM doesn't immediately zap SPTEs and userspace unmaps a range after deleting a memslot, KVM will fail to zap in response to the mmu_notifier due to not finding a memslot corresponding to the notifier's range, which leads to a variation of use-after-free. The other misleading comment (and code) explicitly states that roots without a reference should be skipped. While that's technically true, it's also extremely misleading as it should be impossible for KVM to encounter a defunct root on the list while holding mmu_lock for write. Opportunistically add a WARN to enforce that invariant.

Exit to userspace if setup_vmgexit_scratch() fails due to OOM or because copying data from guest (userspace) memory failed/faulted. The OOM scenario is clearcut, it's userspace's decision as to whether it should terminate the guest, free memory, etc... As for -EFAULT, arguably, any guest issue is a violation of the guest's contract with userspace, and thus userspace needs to decide how to proceed. E.g. userspace defines what is RAM vs. MMIO and communicates that directly to the guest, KVM is not involved in deciding what is/isn't RAM nor in communicating that information to the guest. If the scratch GPA doesn't resolve to a memslot, then the guest is not honoring the memory configuration as defined by userspace. And if userspace unmaps an hva for whatever reason, then exiting to userspace with -EFAULT is absolutely the right thing to do. KVM's ABI currently sucks and doesn't provide enough information to act on the -EFAULT, but that will hopefully be remedied in the future as there are multiple use cases, e.g. uffd and virtiofs truncation, that shouldn't require any work in KVM beyond returning -EFAULT with a small amount of metadata. KVM could define its ABI such that failure to access the scratch area is reflected into the guest, i.e. establish a contract with userspace, but that's undesirable as it limits KVM's options in the future, e.g. in the potential uffd case any failure on a uaccess needs to kick out to userspace. KVM does have several cases where it reflects these errors into the guest, e.g. kvm_pv_clock_pairing() and Hyper-V emulation, but KVM would preferably "fix" those instead of propagating the falsehood that any memory failure is the guest's fault. Lastly, returning a boolean as an "error" for that a helper that isn't named accordingly never works out well.

Zap only obsolete roots when responding to zapping a single root shadow page. Because KVM keeps root_count elevated when stuffing a previous root into its PGD cache, shadowing a 64-bit guest means that zapping any root causes all vCPUs to reload all roots, even if their current root is not affected by the zap.

Remove the generic kvm_reload_remote_mmus() and open code its functionality into the two x86 callers. x86 is (obviously) the only architecture that uses the hook, and is also the only architecture that uses KVM_REQ_MMU_RELOAD in a way that's consistent with the name. That will change in a future patch, as x86's usage when zapping a single shadow page x86 doesn't actually _need_ to reload all vCPUs' MMUs, only MMUs whose root is being zapped actually need to be reloaded. s390 also uses KVM_REQ_MMU_RELOAD, but for a slightly different purpose.

Although, the emulator has use x86_transfer_type enumerate to differentiate them, but it is not really used in __load_segment_descriptor(). Note, far jump/call to call gate, task gate or task state segment are not implemented in emulator. As for far jump/call to code segment, if DPL > CPL for conforming code or (RPL > CPL or DPL != CPL) for non-conforming code, it should trigger #GP. The current checks are ok. As for far return, if RPL < CPL or DPL > RPL for conforming code or DPL != RPL for non-conforming code, it should trigger #GP. Outer level return is not implemented above virtual-8086 mode in emulator. So it implies that RPL <= CPL, but the current checks wouldn't trigger #GP if RPL < CPL. As for code segment loading in task switch, if DPL > RPL for conforming code or DPL != RPL for non-conforming code, it should trigger #TS. Since segment selector is loaded before segment descriptor when load state from tss, it implies that RPL = CPL, so the current checks are ok. The only problem in current implementation is missing RPL < CPL check for far return. However, change code to follow the manual is better. Reviewed-by:

Per Intel's SDM on the "Instruction Set Reference", when loading segment descriptor, not-present segment check should be after all type and privilege checks. But the emulator checks it first, then #NP is triggered instead of #GP if privilege fails and segment is not present. Put not-present segment check after type and privilege checks in __load_segment_descriptor(). Fixes: 38ba30ba (KVM: x86 emulator: Emulate task switch in emulator.c) Reviewed-by:
