KVM currently does not check the value written to guest MSR_IA32_FEATURE_CONTROL, though bits corresponding to disabled features may be set. This patch makes KVM to validate individual bits written to guest MSR_IA32_FEATURE_CONTROL according to enabled features.

Merge tag 'kvm-s390-next-4.8-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvms390/linux into HEAD KVM: s390: vSIE (nested virtualization) feature for 4.8 (kvm/next) With an updated QEMU this allows to create nested KVM guests (KVM under KVM) on s390. s390 memory management changes from Martin Schwidefsky or acked by Martin. One common code memory management change (pageref) acked by Andrew Morton. The feature has to be enabled with the nested medule parameter.

Let's be careful first and allow nested virtualization only if enabled by the system administrator. In addition, user space still has to explicitly enable it via SCLP features for it to work.

We have certain SIE features that we cannot support for now. Let's add these features, so user space can directly prepare to enable them, so we don't have to update yet another component. In addition, add a comment block, telling why it is for now not possible to forward/enable these features.

Guest 2 sets up the epoch of guest 3 from his point of view. Therefore, we have to add the guest 2 epoch to the guest 3 epoch. We also have to take care of guest 2 epoch changes on STP syncs. This will work just fine by also updating the guest 3 epoch when a vsie_block has been set for a VCPU.

Whenever a SIGP external call is injected via the SIGP external call interpretation facility, the VCPU is not kicked. When a VCPU is currently in the VSIE, the external call might not be processed immediately. Therefore we have to provoke partial execution exceptions, which leads to a kick of the VCPU and therefore also kick out of VSIE. This is done by simulating the WAIT state. This bit has no other side effects.

We can avoid one unneeded SIE entry after we reported a fault to g2.

As soon as guest 2 is allowed to use transactional execution (indicated via STFLE), he can also enable it for guest 3.

Issuing STFLE is extremely rare. Instead of copying 2k on every VSIE call, let's do this lazily, when a guest 3 tries to execute STFLE. We can setup the block and retry. Unfortunately, we can't directly forward that facility list, as we only have a 31 bit address for the facility list designation. So let's use a DMA allocation for our vsie_page instead for now.

In order to not always map the prefix, we have to take care of certain aspects that implicitly unmap the prefix: - Changes to the prefix address - Changes to MSO, because the HVA of the prefix is changed - Changes of the gmap shadow (e.g. unshadowed, asce or edat changes) By properly handling these cases, we can stop remapping the prefix when there is no reason to do so. This also allows us now to not acquire any gmap shadow locks when rerunning the vsie and still having a valid gmap shadow. Please note, to detect changing gmap shadows, we have to keep the reference of the gmap shadow. The address of a gmap shadow does otherwise not reliably indicate if the gmap shadow has changed (the memory chunk could get reused).

This patch adds basic support for nested virtualization on s390x, called VSIE (virtual SIE) and allows it to be used by the guest if the necessary facilities are supported by the hardware and enabled for the guest. In order to make this work, we have to shadow the sie control block provided by guest 2. In order to gain some performance, we have to reuse the same shadow blocks as good as possible. For now, we allow as many shadow blocks as we have VCPUs (that way, every VCPU can run the VSIE concurrently). We have to watch out for the prefix getting unmapped out of our shadow gmap and properly get the VCPU out of VSIE in that case, to fault the prefix pages back in. We use the PROG_REQUEST bit for that purpose. This patch is based on an initial prototype by Tobias Elpelt.

Nested virtualization will have to enable own gmaps. Current code would enable the wrong gmap whenever scheduled out and back in, therefore resulting in the wrong gmap being enabled.

Let's not fault in everything in read-write but limit it to read-only where possible. When restricting access rights, we already have the required protection level in our hands. When reading from guest 2 storage (gmap_read_table), it is obviously PROT_READ. When shadowing a pte, the required protection level is given via the guest 2 provided pte.

We have no known user of real-space designation and only support it to be architecture compliant. Gmap shadows with real-space designation are never unshadowed automatically, as there is nothing to protect for the top level table.

We can easily support real-space designation just like EDAT1 and EDAT2. So guest2 can provide for guest3 an asce with the real-space control being set. We simply have to allocate the biggest page table possible and fake all levels. There is no protection to consider. If we exceed guest memory, vsie code will inject an addressing exception (via program intercept). In the future, we could limit the fake table level to the gmap page table. As the top level page table can never go away, such gmap shadows will never get unshadowed, we'll have to come up with another way to limit the number of kept gmap shadows.

If the guest is enabled for EDAT2, we can easily create shadows for guest2 -> guest3 provided tables that make use of EDAT2. If guest2 references a 2GB page, this memory looks consecutive for guest2, but it does not have to be so for us. Therefore we have to create fake segment and page tables. This works just like EDAT1 support, so page tables are removed when the parent table (r3t table entry) is changed. We don't hve to care about: - ACCF-Validity Control in RTTE - Access-Control Bits in RTTE - Fetch-Protection Bit in RTTE - Common-Region Bit in RTTE Just like for EDAT1, all bits might be dropped and there is no guaranteed that they are active.

If the guest is enabled for EDAT1, we can easily create shadows for guest2 -> guest3 provided tables that make use of EDAT1. If guest2 references a 1MB page, this memory looks consecutive for guest2, but it might not be so for us. Therefore we have to create fake page tables. We can easily add that to our existing infrastructure. The invalidation mechanism will make sure that fake page tables are removed when the parent table (sgt table entry) is changed. As EDAT1 also introduced protection on all page table levels, we have to also shadow these correctly. We don't have to care about: - ACCF-Validity Control in STE - Access-Control Bits in STE - Fetch-Protection Bit in STE - Common-Segment Bit in STE As all bits might be dropped and there is no guaranteed that they are active ("unpredictable whether the CPU uses these bits", "may be used"). Without using EDAT1 in the shadow ourselfes (STE-format control == 0), simply shadowing these bits would not be enough. They would be ignored. Please note that we are using the "fake" flag to make this look consistent with further changes (EDAT2, real-space designation support) and don't let the shadow functions handle fc=1 stes. In the future, with huge pages in the host, gmap_shadow_pgt() could simply try to map a huge host page if "fake" is set to one and indicate via return value that no lower fake tables / shadow ptes are required.

In preparation for EDAT1/EDAT2 support for gmap shadows, we have to store the requested edat level in the gmap shadow. The edat level used during shadow translation is a property of the gmap shadow. Depending on that level, the gmap shadow will look differently for the same guest tables. We have to store it internally in order to support it later.
