Expose VMCS shadowing to L1 as a VMX capability of the virtual CPU, whether or not VMCS shadowing is supported by the physical CPU. (VMCS shadowing emulation) Shadowed VMREADs and VMWRITEs from L2 are handled by L0, without a VM-exit to L1. Signed-off-by:

The shadow vmcs12 cannot be flushed on KVM_GET_NESTED_STATE, because at that point guest memory is assumed by userspace to be immutable. Capture the cache in vmx_get_nested_state, adding another page at the end if there is an active shadow vmcs12. Signed-off-by: -

Intel SDM considers these checks to be part of "Checks on Guest Non-Register State". Note that it is legal for vmcs->vmcs_link_pointer to be -1ull when VMCS shadowing is enabled. In this case, any VMREAD/VMWRITE to shadowed-field sets the ALU flags for VMfailInvalid (i.e. CF=1). Signed-off-by:

For nested virtualization L0 KVM is managing a bit of state for L2 guests, this state can not be captured through the currently available IOCTLs. In fact the state captured through all of these IOCTLs is usually a mix of L1 and L2 state. It is also dependent on whether the L2 guest was running at the moment when the process was interrupted to save its state. With this capability, there are two new vcpu ioctls: KVM_GET_NESTED_STATE and KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE. These can be used for saving and restoring a VM that is in VMX operation.

If the vCPU enters system management mode while running a nested guest, RSM starts processing the vmentry while still in SMM. In that case, however, the pages pointed to by the vmcs12 might be incorrectly loaded from SMRAM. To avoid this, delay the handling of the pages until just before the next vmentry. This is done with a new request and a new entry in kvm_x86_ops, which we will be able to reuse for nested VMX state migration. Extracted from a patch by Jim Mattson and KarimAllah Ahmed.

The test calls KVM_RUN repeatedly, and creates an entirely new VM with the old memory and vCPU state on every exit to userspace. The kvm_util API is expanded with two functions that manage the lifetime of a kvm_vm struct: the first closes the file descriptors and leaves the memory allocated, and the second opens the file descriptors and reuses the memory from the previous incarnation of the kvm_vm struct. For now the test is very basic, as it does not test for example XSAVE or vCPU events. However, it will test nested virtualization state starting with the next patch. Signed-off-by: -
Paolo Bonzini authored
The selftests were not munmap-ing the kvm_run area from the vcpu file descriptor. The result was that kvm_vcpu_release was not called and a reference was left in the parent "struct kvm". Ultimately this was visible in the upcoming state save/restore test as an error when KVM attempted to create a duplicate debugfs entry. Signed-off-by: -

The allocation of the VMXON and VMCS is currently done twice, in lib/vmx.c and in vmx_tsc_adjust_test.c. Reorganize the code to provide a cleaner and easier to use API to the tests. lib/vmx.c now does the complete setup of the VMX data structures, but does not create the VM or set CPUID. This has to be done by the caller. Signed-off-by: -

The GDT and the TSS base were left to zero, and this has interesting effects when the TSS descriptor is later read to set up a VMCS's TR_BASE. Basically it worked by chance, and this patch fixes it by setting up all the protected mode data structures properly. Because the GDT and TSS addresses are virtual, the page tables now always exist at the time of vcpu setup. Signed-off-by: -

Some of the MSRs returned by GET_MSR_INDEX_LIST currently cannot be sent back to KVM_GET_MSR and/or KVM_SET_MSR; either they can never be sent back, or you they are only accepted under special conditions. This makes the API a pain to use. To avoid this pain, this patch makes it so that the result of the get-list ioctl can always be used for host-initiated get and set. Since we don't have a separate way to check for read-only MSRs, this means some Hyper-V MSRs are ignored when written. Arguably they should not even be in the result of GET_MSR_INDEX_LIST, but I am leaving there in case userspace is using the outcome of GET_MSR_INDEX_LIST to derive the support for the corresponding Hyper-V feature.

Linux does not support Memory Protection Extensions (MPX) in the kernel itself, thus the BNDCFGS (Bound Config Supervisor) MSR will always be zero in the KVM host, i.e. RDMSR in vmx_save_host_state() is superfluous. KVM unconditionally sets VM_EXIT_CLEAR_BNDCFGS, i.e. BNDCFGS will always be zero after VMEXIT, thus manually loading BNDCFGS is also superfluous. And in the event the MPX kernel support is added (unlikely given that MPX for userspace is in its death throes[1]), BNDCFGS will likely be common across all CPUs[2], and at the least shouldn't change on a regular basis, i.e. saving the MSR on every VMENTRY is completely unnecessary. WARN_ONCE in hardware_setup() if the host's BNDCFGS is non-zero to document that KVM does not preserve BNDCFGS and to serve as a hint as to how BNDCFGS likely should be handled if MPX is used in the kernel, e.g. BNDCFGS should be saved once during KVM setup.

Switch 'requests' to be explicitly 64-bit and update BUILD_BUG_ON check to use the size of "requests" instead of the hard-coded '32'. That gives us a bit more room again for arch-specific requests as we already ran out of space for x86 due to the hard-coded check. The only exception here is ARM32 as it is still 32-bits.

KVM is supposed to update some guest VM's CPUID bits (e.g. OSXSAVE) when CR4 is changed. A bug was found in KVM recently and it was fixed by Commit c4d21882 ("KVM: x86: Update cpuid properly when CR4.OSXAVE or CR4.PKE is changed"). This patch adds a test to verify the synchronization between guest VM's CR4 and CPUID bits. Signed-off-by:

General KVM huge page support on s390 has to be enabled via the kvm.hpage module parameter. Either nested or hpage can be enabled, as we currently do not support vSIE for huge backed guests. Once the vSIE support is added we will either drop the parameter or enable it as default. For a guest the feature has to be enabled through the new KVM_CAP_S390_HPAGE_1M capability and the hpage module parameter. Enabling it means that cmm can't be enabled for the vm and disables pfmf and storage key interpretation. This is due to the fact that in some cases, in upcoming patches, we have to split huge pages in the guest mapping to be able to set more granular memory protection on 4k pages. These split pages have fake page tables that are not visible to the Linux memory management which subsequently will not manage its PGSTEs, while the SIE will. Disabling these features lets us manage PGSTE data in a consistent matter and solve that problem. Signed-off-by:

Guests backed by huge pages could theoretically free unused pages via the diagnose 10 instruction. We currently don't allow that, so we don't have to refault it once it's needed again. Signed-off-by:

Similarly to the pte skey handling, where we set the storage key to the default key for each newly mapped pte, we have to also do that for huge pmds. With the PG_arch_1 flag we keep track if the area has already been cleared of its skeys. Signed-off-by:

When a guest starts using storage keys, we trap and set a default one for its whole valid address space. With this patch we are now able to do that for large pages. To speed up the storage key insertion, we use __storage_key_init_range, which in-turn will use sske_frame to set multiple storage keys with one instruction. As it has been previously used for debuging we have to get rid of the default key check and make it quiescing. Signed-off-by:

To do dirty loging with huge pages, we protect huge pmds in the gmap. When they are written to, we unprotect them and mark them dirty. We introduce the function gmap_test_and_clear_dirty_pmd which handles dirty sync for huge pages. Signed-off-by:

If the host invalidates a pmd, we also have to invalidate the corresponding gmap pmds, as well as flush them from the TLB. This is necessary, as we don't share the pmd tables between host and guest as we do with ptes. The clearing part of these three new functions sets a guest pmd entry to _SEGMENT_ENTRY_EMPTY, so the guest will fault on it and we will re-link it. Flushing the gmap is not necessary in the host's lazy local and csp cases. Both purge the TLB completely. Signed-off-by:

Like for ptes, we also need invalidation notification for pmds, to make sure the guest lowcore pages are always accessible and later addition of shadowed pmds. With PMDs we do not have PGSTEs or some other bits we could use in the host PMD. Instead we pick one of the free bits in the gmap PMD. Every time a host pmd will be invalidated, we will check if the respective gmap PMD has the bit set and in that case fire up the notifier. Signed-off-by:
