Create a fake memslot for ucontrol VMs. The fake memslot identity-maps
userspace.
Now memslots will always be present, and ucontrol is not a special case
anymore.

Pull KVM/arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"New features:
- Support for non-protected guest in protected mode, achieving near
feature parity with the non-protected mode
- Support for the EL2 timers as part of the ongoing NV support
- Allow control of hardware tracing for nVHE/hVHE
Improvements, fixes and cleanups:
- Massive cleanup of the debug infrastructure, making it a bit less
awkward and definitely easier to maintain. This should pave the way
for further optimisations
- Complete rewrite of pKVM's fixed-feature infrastructure, aligning
it with the rest of KVM and making the code easier to follow
- Large simplification of pKVM's memory protection infrastructure
- Better handling of RES0/RES1 fields for memory-backed system
registers
- Add a workaround for Qualcomm's Snapdragon X CPUs, which suffer
from a pretty nasty timer bug
- Small collection of cleanups and low-impact fixes"

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"Loongarch:
- Clear LLBCTL if secondary mmu mapping changes
- Add hypercall service support for usermode VMM
x86:
- Add a comment to kvm_mmu_do_page_fault() to explain why KVM
performs a direct call to kvm_tdp_page_fault() when RETPOLINE is
enabled
- Ensure that all SEV code is compiled out when disabled in Kconfig,
even if building with less brilliant compilers
- Remove a redundant TLB flush on AMD processors when guest CR4.PGE
changes
- Use str_enabled_disabled() to replace open coded strings
- Drop kvm_x86_ops.hwapic_irr_update() as KVM updates hardware's
APICv cache prior to every VM-Enter
- Overhaul KVM's CPUID feature infrastructure to track all vCPU
capabilities instead of just those where KVM needs to manage state
and/or explicitly enable the feature in hardware. Along the way,
refactor the code to make it easier to add features, and to make it
more self-documenting how KVM is handling each feature
- Rework KVM's handling of VM-Exits during event vectoring; this
plugs holes where KVM unintentionally puts the vCPU into infinite
loops in some scenarios (e.g. if emulation is triggered by the
exit), and brings parity between VMX and SVM
- Add pending request and interrupt injection information to the
kvm_exit and kvm_entry tracepoints respectively
- Fix a relatively benign flaw where KVM would end up redoing RDPKRU
when loading guest/host PKRU, due to a refactoring of the kernel
helpers that didn't account for KVM's pre-checking of the need to
do WRPKRU
- Make the completion of hypercalls go through the complete_hypercall
function pointer argument, no matter if the hypercall exits to
userspace or not.
Previously, the code assumed that KVM_HC_MAP_GPA_RANGE specifically
went to userspace, and all the others did not; the new code need
not special case KVM_HC_MAP_GPA_RANGE and in fact does not care at
all whether there was an exit to userspace or not
- As part of enabling TDX virtual machines, support support
separation of private/shared EPT into separate roots.
When TDX will be enabled, operations on private pages will need to
go through the privileged TDX Module via SEAMCALLs; as a result,
they are limited and relatively slow compared to reading a PTE.
The patches included in 6.14 allow KVM to keep a mirror of the
private EPT in host memory, and define entries in kvm_x86_ops to
operate on external page tables such as the TDX private EPT
- The recently introduced conversion of the NX-page reclamation
kthread to vhost_task moved the task under the main process. The
task is created as soon as KVM_CREATE_VM was invoked and this, of
course, broke userspace that didn't expect to see any child task of
the VM process until it started creating its own userspace threads.
In particular crosvm refuses to fork() if procfs shows any child
task, so unbreak it by creating the task lazily. This is arguably a
userspace bug, as there can be other kinds of legitimate worker
tasks and they wouldn't impede fork(); but it's not like userspace
has a way to distinguish kernel worker tasks right now. Should they
show as "Kthread: 1" in proc/.../status?
x86 - Intel:
- Fix a bug where KVM updates hardware's APICv cache of the highest
ISR bit while L2 is active, while ultimately results in a
hardware-accelerated L1 EOI effectively being lost
- Honor event priority when emulating Posted Interrupt delivery
during nested VM-Enter by queueing KVM_REQ_EVENT instead of
immediately handling the interrupt
- Rework KVM's processing of the Page-Modification Logging buffer to
reap entries in the same order they were created, i.e. to mark gfns
dirty in the same order that hardware marked the page/PTE dirty
- Misc cleanups
Generic:
- Cleanup and harden kvm_set_memory_region(); add proper lockdep
assertions when setting memory regions and add a dedicated API for
setting KVM-internal memory regions. The API can then explicitly
disallow all flags for KVM-internal memory regions
- Explicitly verify the target vCPU is online in kvm_get_vcpu() to
fix a bug where KVM would return a pointer to a vCPU prior to it
being fully online, and give kvm_for_each_vcpu() similar treatment
to fix a similar flaw
- Wait for a vCPU to come online prior to executing a vCPU ioctl, to
fix a bug where userspace could coerce KVM into handling the ioctl
on a vCPU that isn't yet onlined
- Gracefully handle xarray insertion failures; even though such
failures are impossible in practice after xa_reserve(), reserving
an entry is always followed by xa_store() which does not know (or
differentiate) whether there was an xa_reserve() before or not
RISC-V:
- Zabha, Svvptc, and Ziccrse extension support for guests. None of
them require anything in KVM except for detecting them and marking
them as supported; Zabha adds byte and halfword atomic operations,
while the others are markers for specific operation of the TLB and
of LL/SC instructions respectively
- Virtualize SBI system suspend extension for Guest/VM
- Support firmware counters which can be used by the guests to
collect statistics about traps that occur in the host
Selftests:
- Rework vcpu_get_reg() to return a value instead of using an
out-param, and update all affected arch code accordingly
- Convert the max_guest_memory_test into a more generic
mmu_stress_test. The basic gist of the "conversion" is to have the
test do mprotect() on guest memory while vCPUs are accessing said
memory, e.g. to verify KVM and mmu_notifiers are working as
intended
- Play nice with treewrite builds of unsupported architectures, e.g.
arm (32-bit), as KVM selftests' Makefile doesn't do anything to
ensure the target architecture is actually one KVM selftests
supports
- Use the kernel's $(ARCH) definition instead of the target triple
for arch specific directories, e.g. arm64 instead of aarch64,
mainly so as not to be different from the rest of the kernel
- Ensure that format strings for logging statements are checked by
the compiler even when the logging statement itself is disabled
- Attempt to whack the last LLC references/misses mole in the Intel
PMU counters test by adding a data load and doing CLFLUSH{OPT} on
the data instead of the code being executed. It seems that modern
Intel CPUs have learned new code prefetching tricks that bypass the
PMU counters
- Fix a flaw in the Intel PMU counters test where it asserts that
events are counting correctly without actually knowing what the
events count given the underlying hardware; this can happen if
Intel reuses a formerly microarchitecture-specific event encoding
as an architectural event, as was the case for Top-Down Slots"

Unconditionally advertise TSC_DEADLINE_TIMER via KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID,
as KVM always emulates deadline mode, *if* the VM has an in-kernel local
APIC. The odds of a VMM emulating the local APIC in userspace, not
emulating the TSC deadline timer, _and_ reflecting
KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID back into KVM_SET_CPUID2, i.e. the risk of
over-advertising and breaking any setups, is extremely low.
KVM has _unconditionally_ advertised X2APIC via CPUID since commit
0d1de2d901f4 ("KVM: Always report x2apic as supported feature"), and it
is completely impossible for userspace to emulate X2APIC as KVM doesn't
support forwarding the MSR accesses to userspace. I.e. KVM has relied on
userspace VMMs to not misreport local APIC capabilities for nearly 13
years.

Reject KVM_CAP_X86_DISABLE_EXITS if vCPUs have been created, as disabling
PAUSE/MWAIT/HLT exits after vCPUs have been created is broken and useless,
e.g. except for PAUSE on SVM, the relevant intercepts aren't updated after
vCPU creation. vCPUs may also end up with an inconsistent configuration
if exits are disabled between creation of multiple vCPUs.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"The biggest change here is eliminating the awful idea that KVM had of
essentially guessing which pfns are refcounted pages.
The reason to do so was that KVM needs to map both non-refcounted
pages (for example BARs of VFIO devices) and VM_PFNMAP/VM_MIXMEDMAP
VMAs that contain refcounted pages.
However, the result was security issues in the past, and more recently
the inability to map VM_IO and VM_PFNMAP memory that _is_ backed by
struct page but is not refcounted. In particular this broke virtio-gpu
blob resources (which directly map host graphics buffers into the
guest as "vram" for the virtio-gpu device) with the amdgpu driver,
because amdgpu allocates non-compound higher order pages and the tail
pages could not be mapped into KVM.
This requires adjusting all uses of struct page in the
per-architecture code, to always work on the pfn whenever possible.
The large series that did this, from David Stevens and Sean
Christopherson, also cleaned up substantially the set of functions
that provided arch code with the pfn for a host virtual addresses.
The previous maze of twisty little passages, all different, is
replaced by five functions (__gfn_to_page, __kvm_faultin_pfn, the
non-__ versions of these two, and kvm_prefetch_pages) saving almost
200 lines of code.
ARM:
- Support for stage-1 permission indirection (FEAT_S1PIE) and
permission overlays (FEAT_S1POE), including nested virt + the
emulated page table walker
- Introduce PSCI SYSTEM_OFF2 support to KVM + client driver. This
call was introduced in PSCIv1.3 as a mechanism to request
hibernation, similar to the S4 state in ACPI
- Explicitly trap + hide FEAT_MPAM (QoS controls) from KVM guests. As
part of it, introduce trivial initialization of the host's MPAM
context so KVM can use the corresponding traps
- PMU support under nested virtualization, honoring the guest
hypervisor's trap configuration and event filtering when running a
nested guest
- Fixes to vgic ITS serialization where stale device/interrupt table
entries are not zeroed when the mapping is invalidated by the VM
- Avoid emulated MMIO completion if userspace has requested
synchronous external abort injection
- Various fixes and cleanups affecting pKVM, vCPU initialization, and
selftests
LoongArch:
- Add iocsr and mmio bus simulation in kernel.
- Add in-kernel interrupt controller emulation.
- Add support for virtualization extensions to the eiointc irqchip.
PPC:
- Drop lingering and utterly obsolete references to PPC970 KVM, which
was removed 10 years ago.
- Fix incorrect documentation references to non-existing ioctls
RISC-V:
- Accelerate KVM RISC-V when running as a guest
- Perf support to collect KVM guest statistics from host side
s390:
- New selftests: more ucontrol selftests and CPU model sanity checks
- Support for the gen17 CPU model
- List registers supported by KVM_GET/SET_ONE_REG in the
documentation
x86:
- Cleanup KVM's handling of Accessed and Dirty bits to dedup code,
improve documentation, harden against unexpected changes.
Even if the hardware A/D tracking is disabled, it is possible to
use the hardware-defined A/D bits to track if a PFN is Accessed
and/or Dirty, and that removes a lot of special cases.
- Elide TLB flushes when aging secondary PTEs, as has been done in
x86's primary MMU for over 10 years.
- Recover huge pages in-place in the TDP MMU when dirty page logging
is toggled off, instead of zapping them and waiting until the page
is re-accessed to create a huge mapping. This reduces vCPU jitter.
- Batch TLB flushes when dirty page logging is toggled off. This
reduces the time it takes to disable dirty logging by ~3x.
- Remove the shrinker that was (poorly) attempting to reclaim shadow
page tables in low-memory situations.
- Clean up and optimize KVM's handling of writes to
MSR_IA32_APICBASE.
- Advertise CPUIDs for new instructions in Clearwater Forest
- Quirk KVM's misguided behavior of initialized certain feature MSRs
to their maximum supported feature set, which can result in KVM
creating invalid vCPU state. E.g. initializing PERF_CAPABILITIES to
a non-zero value results in the vCPU having invalid state if
userspace hides PDCM from the guest, which in turn can lead to
save/restore failures.
- Fix KVM's handling of non-canonical checks for vCPUs that support
LA57 to better follow the "architecture", in quotes because the
actual behavior is poorly documented. E.g. most MSR writes and
descriptor table loads ignore CR4.LA57 and operate purely on
whether the CPU supports LA57.
- Bypass the register cache when querying CPL from kvm_sched_out(),
as filling the cache from IRQ context is generally unsafe; harden
the cache accessors to try to prevent similar issues from occuring
in the future. The issue that triggered this change was already
fixed in 6.12, but was still kinda latent.
- Advertise AMD_IBPB_RET to userspace, and fix a related bug where
KVM over-advertises SPEC_CTRL when trying to support cross-vendor
VMs.
- Minor cleanups
- Switch hugepage recovery thread to use vhost_task.
These kthreads can consume significant amounts of CPU time on
behalf of a VM or in response to how the VM behaves (for example
how it accesses its memory); therefore KVM tried to place the
thread in the VM's cgroups and charge the CPU time consumed by that
work to the VM's container.
However the kthreads did not process SIGSTOP/SIGCONT, and therefore
cgroups which had KVM instances inside could not complete freezing.
Fix this by replacing the kthread with a PF_USER_WORKER thread, via
the vhost_task abstraction. Another 100+ lines removed, with
generally better behavior too like having these threads properly
parented in the process tree.
- Revert a workaround for an old CPU erratum (Nehalem/Westmere) that
didn't really work; there was really nothing to work around anyway:
the broken patch was meant to fix nested virtualization, but the
PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL MSR is virtualized and therefore unaffected by the
erratum.
- Fix 6.12 regression where CONFIG_KVM will be built as a module even
if asked to be builtin, as long as neither KVM_INTEL nor KVM_AMD is
'y'.
x86 selftests:
- x86 selftests can now use AVX.
Documentation:
- Use rST internal links
- Reorganize the introduction to the API document
Generic:
- Protect vcpu->pid accesses outside of vcpu->mutex with a rwlock
instead of RCU, so that running a vCPU on a different task doesn't
encounter long due to having to wait for all CPUs become quiescent.
In general both reads and writes are rare, but userspace that
supports confidential computing is introducing the use of "helper"
vCPUs that may jump from one host processor to another. Those will
be very happy to trigger a synchronize_rcu(), and the effect on
performance is quite the disaster"

Pull s390 updates from Heiko Carstens:
- Add firmware sysfs interface which allows user space to retrieve the
dump area size of the machine
- Add 'measurement_chars_full' CHPID sysfs attribute to make the
complete associated Channel-Measurements Characteristics Block
available
- Add virtio-mem support
- Move gmap aka KVM page fault handling from the main fault handler to
KVM code. This is the first step to make s390 KVM page fault handling
similar to other architectures. With this first step the main fault
handler does not have any special handling anymore, and therefore
convert it to support LOCK_MM_AND_FIND_VMA
- With gcc 14 s390 support for flag output operand support for inline
assemblies was added. This allows for several optimizations:
- Provide a cmpxchg inline assembly which makes use of this, and
provide all variants of arch_try_cmpxchg() so that the compiler
can generate slightly better code
- Convert a few cmpxchg() loops to try_cmpxchg() loops
- Similar to x86 add a CC_OUT() helper macro (and other macros),
and convert all inline assemblies to make use of them, so that
depending on compiler version better code can be generated
- List installed host-key hashes in sysfs if the machine supports the
Query Ultravisor Keys UVC
- Add 'Retrieve Secret' ioctl which allows user space in protected
execution guests to retrieve previously stored secrets from the
Ultravisor
- Add pkey-uv module which supports the conversion of Ultravisor
retrievable secrets to protected keys
- Extend the existing paes cipher to exploit the full AES-XTS hardware
acceleration introduced with message-security assist extension 10
- Convert hopefully all sysfs show functions to use sysfs_emit() so
that the constant flow of such patches stop
- For PCI devices make use of the newly added Topology ID attribute to
enable whole card multi-function support despite the change to PCHID
per port. Additionally improve the overall robustness and usability
of the multifunction support
- Various other small improvements, fixes, and cleanups

KVM/arm64 changes for 6.13, part #1
- Support for stage-1 permission indirection (FEAT_S1PIE) and
permission overlays (FEAT_S1POE), including nested virt + the
emulated page table walker
- Introduce PSCI SYSTEM_OFF2 support to KVM + client driver. This call
was introduced in PSCIv1.3 as a mechanism to request hibernation,
similar to the S4 state in ACPI
- Explicitly trap + hide FEAT_MPAM (QoS controls) from KVM guests. As
part of it, introduce trivial initialization of the host's MPAM
context so KVM can use the corresponding traps
- PMU support under nested virtualization, honoring the guest
hypervisor's trap configuration and event filtering when running a
nested guest
- Fixes to vgic ITS serialization where stale device/interrupt table
entries are not zeroed when the mapping is invalidated by the VM
- Avoid emulated MMIO completion if userspace has requested synchronous
external abort injection
- Various fixes and cleanups affecting pKVM, vCPU initialization, and
selftests

KVM x86 misc changes for 6.13
- Clean up and optimize KVM's handling of writes to MSR_IA32_APICBASE.
- Quirk KVM's misguided behavior of initialized certain feature MSRs to
their maximum supported feature set, which can result in KVM creating
invalid vCPU state. E.g. initializing PERF_CAPABILITIES to a non-zero
value results in the vCPU having invalid state if userspace hides PDCM
from the guest, which can lead to save/restore failures.
- Fix KVM's handling of non-canonical checks for vCPUs that support LA57
to better follow the "architecture", in quotes because the actual
behavior is poorly documented. E.g. most MSR writes and descriptor
table loads ignore CR4.LA57 and operate purely on whether the CPU
supports LA57.
- Bypass the register cache when querying CPL from kvm_sched_out(), as
filling the cache from IRQ context is generally unsafe, and harden the
cache accessors to try to prevent similar issues from occuring in the
future.
- Advertise AMD_IBPB_RET to userspace, and fix a related bug where KVM
over-advertises SPEC_CTRL when trying to support cross-vendor VMs.
- Minor cleanups

Add a quirk to control KVM's misguided initialization of select feature
MSRs to KVM's max configuration, as enabling features by default violates
KVM's approach of letting userspace own the vCPU model, and is actively
problematic for MSRs that are conditionally supported, as the vCPU will
end up with an MSR value that userspace can't restore. E.g. if the vCPU
is configured with PDCM=0, userspace will save and attempt to restore a
non-zero PERF_CAPABILITIES, thanks to KVM's meddling.

Document a flaw in KVM's ABI which lets userspace attempt to inject a
"bad" hardware exception event, and thus induce VM-Fail on Intel CPUs.
Fixing the flaw is a fool's errand, as AMD doesn't sanity check the
validity of the error code, Intel CPUs that support CET relax the check
for Protected Mode, userspace can change the mode after queueing an
exception, KVM ignores the error code when emulating Real Mode exceptions,
and so on and so forth.
The VM-Fail itself doesn't harm KVM or the kernel beyond triggering a
ratelimited pr_warn(), so just document the oddity.

Now that KVM doesn't clobber Accessed bits of shadow-present SPTEs,
e.g. when prefetching, mark folios as accessed only when zapping leaf
SPTEs, which is a rough heuristic for "only in response to an mmu_notifier
invalidation". Page aging and LRUs are tolerant of false negatives, i.e.
KVM doesn't need to be precise for correctness, and re-marking folios as
accessed when zapping entire roots or when zapping collapsible SPTEs is
expensive and adds very little value.
E.g. when a VM is dying, all of its memory is being freed; marking folios
accessed at that time provides no known value. Similarly, because KVM
marks folios as accessed when creating SPTEs, marking all folios as
accessed when userspace happens to delete a memslot doesn't add value.
The folio was marked access when the old SPTE was created, and will be
marked accessed yet again if a vCPU accesses the pfn again after reloading
a new root. Zapping collapsible SPTEs is a similar story; marking folios
accessed just because userspace disable dirty logging is a side effect of
KVM behavior, not a deliberate goal.
As an intermediate step, a.k.a. bisection point, towards *never* marking
folios accessed when dropping SPTEs, mark folios accessed when the primary
MMU might be invalidating mappings, as such zappings are not KVM initiated,
i.e. might actually be related to page aging and LRU activity.
Note, x86 is the only KVM architecture that "double dips"; every other
arch marks pfns as accessed only when mapping into the guest, not when
mapping into the guest _and_ when removing from the guest.

The PSCI v1.3 specification adds support for a SYSTEM_OFF2 function
which is analogous to ACPI S4 state. This will allow hosting
environments to determine that a guest is hibernated rather than just
powered off, and ensure that they preserve the virtual environment
appropriately to allow the guest to resume safely (or bump the
hardware_signature in the FACS to trigger a clean reboot instead).
This feature is safe to enable unconditionally (in a subsequent commit)
because it is exposed to userspace through the existing
KVM_SYSTEM_EVENT_SHUTDOWN event, just with an additional flag which
userspace can use to know that the instance intended hibernation instead
of a plain power-off.
As with SYSTEM_RESET2, there is only one type available (in this case
HIBERNATE_OFF), and it is not explicitly reported to userspace through
the event; userspace can get it from the registers if it cares).

Massage the documentation for KVM_X86_QUIRK_SLOT_ZAP_ALL to call out that
it applies to moved memslots as well as deleted memslots, to avoid KVM's
"fast zap" terminology (which has no meaning for userspace), and to reword
the documented targeted zap behavior to specifically say that KVM _may_
zap a subset of all SPTEs. As evidenced by the fix to zap non-leafs SPTEs
with gPTEs, formally documenting KVM's exact internal behavior is risky
and unnecessary.

Pull x86 kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"x86:
- KVM currently invalidates the entirety of the page tables, not just
those for the memslot being touched, when a memslot is moved or
deleted.
This does not traditionally have particularly noticeable overhead,
but Intel's TDX will require the guest to re-accept private pages
if they are dropped from the secure EPT, which is a non starter.
Actually, the only reason why this is not already being done is a
bug which was never fully investigated and caused VM instability
with assigned GeForce GPUs, so allow userspace to opt into the new
behavior.
- Advertise AVX10.1 to userspace (effectively prep work for the
"real" AVX10 functionality that is on the horizon)
- Rework common MSR handling code to suppress errors on userspace
accesses to unsupported-but-advertised MSRs
This will allow removing (almost?) all of KVM's exemptions for
userspace access to MSRs that shouldn't exist based on the vCPU
model (the actual cleanup is non-trivial future work)
- Rework KVM's handling of x2APIC ICR, again, because AMD (x2AVIC)
splits the 64-bit value into the legacy ICR and ICR2 storage,
whereas Intel (APICv) stores the entire 64-bit value at the ICR
offset
- Fix a bug where KVM would fail to exit to userspace if one was
triggered by a fastpath exit handler
- Add fastpath handling of HLT VM-Exit to expedite re-entering the
guest when there's already a pending wake event at the time of the
exit
- Fix a WARN caused by RSM entering a nested guest from SMM with
invalid guest state, by forcing the vCPU out of guest mode prior to
signalling SHUTDOWN (the SHUTDOWN hits the VM altogether, not the
nested guest)
- Overhaul the "unprotect and retry" logic to more precisely identify
cases where retrying is actually helpful, and to harden all retry
paths against putting the guest into an infinite retry loop
- Add support for yielding, e.g. to honor NEED_RESCHED, when zapping
rmaps in the shadow MMU
- Refactor pieces of the shadow MMU related to aging SPTEs in
prepartion for adding multi generation LRU support in KVM
- Don't stuff the RSB after VM-Exit when RETPOLINE=y and AutoIBRS is
enabled, i.e. when the CPU has already flushed the RSB
- Trace the per-CPU host save area as a VMCB pointer to improve
readability and cleanup the retrieval of the SEV-ES host save area
- Remove unnecessary accounting of temporary nested VMCB related
allocations
- Set FINAL/PAGE in the page fault error code for EPT violations if
and only if the GVA is valid. If the GVA is NOT valid, there is no
guest-side page table walk and so stuffing paging related metadata
is nonsensical
- Fix a bug where KVM would incorrectly synthesize a nested VM-Exit
instead of emulating posted interrupt delivery to L2
- Add a lockdep assertion to detect unsafe accesses of vmcs12
structures
- Harden eVMCS loading against an impossible NULL pointer deref
(really truly should be impossible)
- Minor SGX fix and a cleanup
- Misc cleanups
Generic:
- Register KVM's cpuhp and syscore callbacks when enabling
virtualization in hardware, as the sole purpose of said callbacks
is to disable and re-enable virtualization as needed
- Enable virtualization when KVM is loaded, not right before the
first VM is created
Together with the previous change, this simplifies a lot the logic
of the callbacks, because their very existence implies
virtualization is enabled
- Fix a bug that results in KVM prematurely exiting to userspace for
coalesced MMIO/PIO in many cases, clean up the related code, and
add a testcase
- Fix a bug in kvm_clear_guest() where it would trigger a buffer
overflow _if_ the gpa+len crosses a page boundary, which thankfully
is guaranteed to not happen in the current code base. Add WARNs in
more helpers that read/write guest memory to detect similar bugs
Selftests:
- Fix a goof that caused some Hyper-V tests to be skipped when run on
bare metal, i.e. NOT in a VM
- Add a regression test for KVM's handling of SHUTDOWN for an SEV-ES
guest
- Explicitly include one-off assets in .gitignore. Past Sean was
completely wrong about not being able to detect missing .gitignore
entries
- Verify userspace single-stepping works when KVM happens to handle a
VM-Exit in its fastpath
- Misc cleanups"

Register KVM's cpuhp and syscore callback when enabling virtualization
in hardware instead of registering the callbacks during initialization,
and let the CPU up/down framework invoke the inner enable/disable
functions. Registering the callbacks during initialization makes things
more complex than they need to be, as KVM needs to be very careful about
handling races between enabling CPUs being onlined/offlined and hardware
being enabled/disabled.
Intel TDX support will require KVM to enable virtualization during KVM
initialization, i.e. will add another wrinkle to things, at which point
sorting out the potential races with kvm_usage_count would become even
more complex.
Note, using the cpuhp framework has a subtle behavioral change: enabling
will be done serially across all CPUs, whereas KVM currently sends an IPI
to all CPUs in parallel. While serializing virtualization enabling could
create undesirable latency, the issue is limited to the 0=>1 transition of
VM creation. And even that can be mitigated, e.g. by letting userspace
force virtualization to be enabled when KVM is initialized.

Use a dedicated mutex to guard kvm_usage_count to fix a potential deadlock
on x86 due to a chain of locks and SRCU synchronizations. Translating the
below lockdep splat, CPU1 #6 will wait on CPU0 #1, CPU0 #8 will wait on
CPU2 #3, and CPU2 #7 will wait on CPU1 #4 (if there's a writer, due to the
fairness of r/w semaphores).
CPU0 CPU1 CPU2
1 lock(&kvm->slots_lock);
2 lock(&vcpu->mutex);
3 lock(&kvm->srcu);
4 lock(cpu_hotplug_lock);
5 lock(kvm_lock);
6 lock(&kvm->slots_lock);
7 lock(cpu_hotplug_lock);
8 sync(&kvm->srcu);
Note, there are likely more potential deadlocks in KVM x86, e.g. the same
pattern of taking cpu_hotplug_lock outside of kvm_lock likely exists with
__kvmclock_cpufreq_notifier():
cpuhp_cpufreq_online()
|
-> cpufreq_online()
|
-> cpufreq_gov_performance_limits()
|
-> __cpufreq_driver_target()
|
-> __target_index()
|
-> cpufreq_freq_transition_begin()
|
-> cpufreq_notify_transition()
|
-> ... __kvmclock_cpufreq_notifier()
But, actually triggering such deadlocks is beyond rare due to the
combination of dependencies and timings involved. E.g. the cpufreq
notifier is only used on older CPUs without a constant TSC, mucking with
the NX hugepage mitigation while VMs are running is very uncommon, and
doing so while also onlining/offlining a CPU (necessary to generate
contention on cpu_hotplug_lock) would be even more unusual.
The most robust solution to the general cpu_hotplug_lock issue is likely
to switch vm_list to be an RCU-protected list, e.g. so that x86's cpufreq
notifier doesn't to take kvm_lock. For now, settle for fixing the most
blatant deadlock, as switching to an RCU-protected list is a much more
involved change, but add a comment in locking.rst to call out that care
needs to be taken when walking holding kvm_lock and walking vm_list.

Synthesize a consistency check VM-Exit (VM-Enter) or VM-Abort (VM-Exit) if
L1 attempts to load/store an MSR via the VMCS MSR lists that userspace has
disallowed access to via an MSR filter. Intel already disallows including
a handful of "special" MSRs in the VMCS lists, so denying access isn't
completely without precedent.
More importantly, the behavior is well-defined _and_ can be communicated
the end user, e.g. to the customer that owns a VM running as L1 on top of
KVM. On the other hand, ignoring userspace MSR filters is all but
guaranteed to result in unexpected behavior as the access will hit KVM's
internal state, which is likely not up-to-date.
Unlike KVM-internal accesses, instruction emulation, and dedicated VMCS
fields, the MSRs in the VMCS load/store lists are 100% guest controlled,
thus making it all but impossible to reason about the correctness of
ignoring the MSR filter. And if userspace *really* wants to deny access
to MSRs via the aforementioned scenarios, userspace can hide the
associated feature from the guest, e.g. by disabling the PMU to prevent
accessing PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL via its VMCS field. But for the MSR lists, KVM
is blindly processing MSRs; the MSR filters are the _only_ way for
userspace to deny access.
This partially reverts commit ac8d6cad3c7b ("KVM: x86: Only do MSR
filtering when access MSR by rdmsr/wrmsr").

Introduce the quirk KVM_X86_QUIRK_SLOT_ZAP_ALL to allow users to select
KVM's behavior when a memslot is moved or deleted for KVM_X86_DEFAULT_VM
VMs. Make sure KVM behave as if the quirk is always disabled for
non-KVM_X86_DEFAULT_VM VMs.
The KVM_X86_QUIRK_SLOT_ZAP_ALL quirk offers two behavior options:
- when enabled: Invalidate/zap all SPTEs ("zap-all"),
- when disabled: Precisely zap only the leaf SPTEs within the range of the
moving/deleting memory slot ("zap-slot-leafs-only").
"zap-all" is today's KVM behavior to work around a bug [1] where the
changing the zapping behavior of memslot move/deletion would cause VM
instability for VMs with an Nvidia GPU assigned; while
"zap-slot-leafs-only" allows for more precise zapping of SPTEs within the
memory slot range, improving performance in certain scenarios [2], and
meeting the functional requirements for TDX.
Previous attempts to select "zap-slot-leafs-only" include a per-VM
capability approach [3] (which was not preferred because the root cause of
the bug remained unidentified) and a per-memslot flag approach [4]. Sean
and Paolo finally recommended the implementation of this quirk and
explained that it's the least bad option [5].
By default, the quirk is enabled on KVM_X86_DEFAULT_VM VMs to use
"zap-all". Users have the option to disable the quirk to select
"zap-slot-leafs-only" for specific KVM_X86_DEFAULT_VM VMs that are
unaffected by this bug.
For non-KVM_X86_DEFAULT_VM VMs, the "zap-slot-leafs-only" behavior is
always selected without user's opt-in, regardless of if the user opts for
"zap-all".
This is because it is assumed until proven otherwise that non-
KVM_X86_DEFAULT_VM VMs will not be exposed to the bug [1], and most
importantly, it's because TDX must have "zap-slot-leafs-only" always
selected. In TDX's case a memslot's GPA range can be a mixture of "private"
or "shared" memory. Shared is roughly analogous to how EPT is handled for
normal VMs, but private GPAs need lots of special treatment:
1) "zap-all" would require to zap private root page or non-leaf entries or
at least leaf-entries beyond the deleting memslot scope. However, TDX
demands that the root page of the private page table remains unchanged,
with leaf entries being zapped before non-leaf entries, and any dropped
private guest pages must be re-accepted by the guest.
2) if "zap-all" zaps only shared page tables, it would result in private
pages still being mapped when the memslot is gone. This may affect even
other processes if later the gmem fd was whole punched, causing the
pages being freed on the host while still mapped in the TD, because
there's no pgoff to the gfn information to zap the private page table
after memslot is gone.
So, simply go "zap-slot-leafs-only" as if the quirk is always disabled for
non-KVM_X86_DEFAULT_VM VMs to avoid manual opt-in for every VM type [6] or
complicating quirk disabling interface (current quirk disabling interface
is limited, no way to query quirks, or force them to be disabled).
Add a new function kvm_mmu_zap_memslot_leafs() to implement
"zap-slot-leafs-only". This function does not call kvm_unmap_gfn_range(),
bypassing special handling to APIC_ACCESS_PAGE_PRIVATE_MEMSLOT, as
1) The APIC_ACCESS_PAGE_PRIVATE_MEMSLOT cannot be created by users, nor can
it be moved. It is only deleted by KVM when APICv is permanently
inhibited.
2) kvm_vcpu_reload_apic_access_page() effectively does nothing when
APIC_ACCESS_PAGE_PRIVATE_MEMSLOT is deleted.
3) Avoid making all cpus request of KVM_REQ_APIC_PAGE_RELOAD can save on
costly IPIs.
