Remove support for context switching between the guest's and host's
desired UMWAIT_CONTROL. Propagating the guest's value to hardware isn't
required for correct functionality, e.g. KVM intercepts reads and writes
to the MSR, and the latency effects of the settings controlled by the
MSR are not architecturally visible.
As a general rule, KVM should not allow the guest to control power
management settings unless explicitly enabled by userspace, e.g. see
KVM_CAP_X86_DISABLE_EXITS. E.g. Intel's SDM explicitly states that C0.2
can improve the performance of SMT siblings. A devious guest could
disable C0.2 so as to improve the performance of their workloads at the
detriment to workloads running in the host or on other VMs.
Wholesale removal of UMWAIT_CONTROL context switching also fixes a race
condition where updates from the host may cause KVM to enter the guest
with the incorrect value. Because updates are are propagated to all
CPUs via IPI (SMP function callback), the value in hardware may be
stale with respect to the cached value and KVM could enter the guest
with the wrong value in hardware. As above, the guest can't observe the
bad value, but it's a weird and confusing wart in the implementation.
Removal also fixes the unnecessary usage of VMX's atomic load/store MSR
lists. Using the lists is only necessary for MSRs that are required for
correct functionality immediately upon VM-Enter/VM-Exit, e.g. EFER on
old hardware, or for MSRs that need to-the-uop precision, e.g. perf
related MSRs. For UMWAIT_CONTROL, the effects are only visible in the
kernel via TPAUSE/delay(), and KVM doesn't do any form of delay in
vcpu_vmx_run(). Using the atomic lists is undesirable as they are more
expensive than direct RDMSR/WRMSR.
Furthermore, even if giving the guest control of the MSR is legitimate,
e.g. in pass-through scenarios, it's not clear that the benefits would
outweigh the overhead. E.g. saving and restoring an MSR across a VMX
roundtrip costs ~250 cycles, and if the guest diverged from the host
that cost would be paid on every run of the guest. In other words, if
there is a legitimate use case then it should be enabled by a new
per-VM capability.
Note, KVM still needs to emulate MSR_IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL so that it can
correctly expose other WAITPKG features to the guest, e.g. TPAUSE,
UMWAIT and UMONITOR.

Explicitly pass the L2 GPA to kvm_arch_write_log_dirty(), which for all
intents and purposes is vmx_write_pml_buffer(), instead of having the
latter pull the GPA from vmcs.GUEST_PHYSICAL_ADDRESS. If the dirty bit
update is the result of KVM emulation (rare for L2), then the GPA in the
VMCS may be stale and/or hold a completely unrelated GPA.

Guest crashes are observed on a Cascade Lake system when 'perf top' is
launched on the host, e.g.
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at fffffe0000073038

Call Trace:
serial8250_console_write+0xfe/0x1f0
call_console_drivers.constprop.0+0x9d/0x120
console_unlock+0x1ea/0x460
Call traces are different but the crash is imminent. The problem was
blindly bisected to the commit 041bc42ce2d0 ("KVM: VMX: Micro-optimize
vmexit time when not exposing PMU"). It was also confirmed that the
issue goes away if PMU is exposed to the guest.
With some instrumentation of the guest we can see what is being switched
(when we do atomic_switch_perf_msrs()):
vmx_vcpu_run: switching 2 msrs
vmx_vcpu_run: switching MSR38f guest: 70000000d host: 70000000f
vmx_vcpu_run: switching MSR3f1 guest: 0 host: 2
The current guess is that PEBS (MSR_IA32_PEBS_ENABLE, 0x3f1) is to blame.
Regardless of whether PMU is exposed to the guest or not, PEBS needs to
be disabled upon switch.
This reverts commit 041bc42ce2d0efac3b85bbb81dea8c74b81f4ef9.

Pull x86 entry updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The x86 entry, exception and interrupt code rework
This all started about 6 month ago with the attempt to move the Posix
CPU timer heavy lifting out of the timer interrupt code and just have
lockless quick checks in that code path. Trivial 5 patches.
This unearthed an inconsistency in the KVM handling of task work and
the review requested to move all of this into generic code so other
architectures can share.
Valid request and solved with another 25 patches but those unearthed
inconsistencies vs. RCU and instrumentation.
Digging into this made it obvious that there are quite some
inconsistencies vs. instrumentation in general. The int3 text poke
handling in particular was completely unprotected and with the batched
update of trace events even more likely to expose to endless int3
recursion.
In parallel the RCU implications of instrumenting fragile entry code
came up in several discussions.
The conclusion of the x86 maintainer team was to go all the way and
make the protection against any form of instrumentation of fragile and
dangerous code pathes enforcable and verifiable by tooling.
A first batch of preparatory work hit mainline with commit
d5f744f9a2ac ("Pull x86 entry code updates from Thomas Gleixner")
That (almost) full solution introduced a new code section
'.noinstr.text' into which all code which needs to be protected from
instrumentation of all sorts goes into. Any call into instrumentable
code out of this section has to be annotated. objtool has support to
validate this.
Kprobes now excludes this section fully which also prevents BPF from
fiddling with it and all 'noinstr' annotated functions also keep
ftrace off. The section, kprobes and objtool changes are already
merged.
The major changes coming with this are:
- Preparatory cleanups
- Annotating of relevant functions to move them into the
noinstr.text section or enforcing inlining by marking them
__always_inline so the compiler cannot misplace or instrument
them.
- Splitting and simplifying the idtentry macro maze so that it is
now clearly separated into simple exception entries and the more
interesting ones which use interrupt stacks and have the paranoid
handling vs. CR3 and GS.
- Move quite some of the low level ASM functionality into C code:
- enter_from and exit to user space handling. The ASM code now
calls into C after doing the really necessary ASM handling and
the return path goes back out without bells and whistels in
ASM.
- exception entry/exit got the equivivalent treatment
- move all IRQ tracepoints from ASM to C so they can be placed as
appropriate which is especially important for the int3
recursion issue.
- Consolidate the declaration and definition of entry points between
32 and 64 bit. They share a common header and macros now.
- Remove the extra device interrupt entry maze and just use the
regular exception entry code.
- All ASM entry points except NMI are now generated from the shared
header file and the corresponding macros in the 32 and 64 bit
entry ASM.
- The C code entry points are consolidated as well with the help of
DEFINE_IDTENTRY*() macros. This allows to ensure at one central
point that all corresponding entry points share the same
semantics. The actual function body for most entry points is in an
instrumentable and sane state.
There are special macros for the more sensitive entry points, e.g.
INT3 and of course the nasty paranoid #NMI, #MCE, #DB and #DF.
They allow to put the whole entry instrumentation and RCU handling
into safe places instead of the previous pray that it is correct
approach.
- The INT3 text poke handling is now completely isolated and the
recursion issue banned. Aside of the entry rework this required
other isolation work, e.g. the ability to force inline bsearch.
- Prevent #DB on fragile entry code, entry relevant memory and
disable it on NMI, #MC entry, which allowed to get rid of the
nested #DB IST stack shifting hackery.
- A few other cleanups and enhancements which have been made
possible through this and already merged changes, e.g.
consolidating and further restricting the IDT code so the IDT
table becomes RO after init which removes yet another popular
attack vector
- About 680 lines of ASM maze are gone.
There are a few open issues:
- An escape out of the noinstr section in the MCE handler which needs
some more thought but under the aspect that MCE is a complete
trainwreck by design and the propability to survive it is low, this
was not high on the priority list.
- Paravirtualization
When PV is enabled then objtool complains about a bunch of indirect
calls out of the noinstr section. There are a few straight forward
ways to fix this, but the other issues vs. general correctness were
more pressing than parawitz.
- KVM
KVM is inconsistent as well. Patches have been posted, but they
have not yet been commented on or picked up by the KVM folks.
- IDLE
Pretty much the same problems can be found in the low level idle
code especially the parts where RCU stopped watching. This was
beyond the scope of the more obvious and exposable problems and is
on the todo list.
The lesson learned from this brain melting exercise to morph the
evolved code base into something which can be validated and understood
is that once again the violation of the most important engineering
principle "correctness first" has caused quite a few people to spend
valuable time on problems which could have been avoided in the first
place. The "features first" tinkering mindset really has to stop.

this effort. Special thanks go to the following people (alphabetical

Consult only the basic exit reason, i.e. bits 15:0 of vmcs.EXIT_REASON,
when determining whether a nested VM-Exit should be reflected into L1 or
handled by KVM in L0.
For better or worse, the switch statement in nested_vmx_exit_reflected()
currently defaults to "true", i.e. reflects any nested VM-Exit without
dedicated logic. Because the case statements only contain the basic
exit reason, any VM-Exit with modifier bits set will be reflected to L1,
even if KVM intended to handle it in L0.
Practically speaking, this only affects EXIT_REASON_MCE_DURING_VMENTRY,
i.e. a #MC that occurs on nested VM-Enter would be incorrectly routed to
L1, as "failed VM-Entry" is the only modifier that KVM can currently
encounter. The SMM modifiers will never be generated as KVM doesn't
support/employ a SMI Transfer Monitor. Ditto for "exit from enclave",
as KVM doesn't yet support virtualizing SGX, i.e. it's impossible to
enter an enclave in a KVM guest (L1 or L2).

'exception' we're trying to inject with kvm_inject_emulated_page_fault()
comes from:
nested_vmx_get_vmptr()
kvm_read_guest_virt()
kvm_read_guest_virt_helper()
vcpu->arch.walk_mmu->gva_to_gpa()
but it is only set when GVA to GPA conversion fails. In case it doesn't but
we still fail kvm_vcpu_read_guest_page(), X86EMUL_IO_NEEDED is returned and
nested_vmx_get_vmptr() calls kvm_inject_emulated_page_fault() with zeroed
'exception'. This happen when the argument is MMIO.
Paolo also noticed that nested_vmx_get_vmptr() is not the only place in
KVM code where kvm_read/write_guest_virt*() return result is mishandled.
VMX instructions along with INVPCID have the same issue. This was already
noticed before, e.g. see commit 541ab2aeb282 ("KVM: x86: work around
leak of uninitialized stack contents") but was never fully fixed.
KVM could've handled the request correctly by going to userspace and
performing I/O but there doesn't seem to be a good need for such requests
in the first place.
Introduce vmx_handle_memory_failure() as an interim solution.
Note, nested_vmx_get_vmptr() now has three possible outcomes: OK, PF,
KVM_EXIT_INTERNAL_ERROR and callers need to know if userspace exit is
needed (for KVM_EXIT_INTERNAL_ERROR) in case of failure. We don't seem
to have a good enum describing this tristate, just add "int *ret" to
nested_vmx_get_vmptr() interface to pass the information.

Intel CPUs have a new alternative MSR range (starting from MSR_IA32_PMC0)
for GP counters that allows writing the full counter width. Enable this
range from a new capability bit (IA32_PERF_CAPABILITIES.FW_WRITE[bit 13]).
The guest would query CPUID to get the counter width, and sign extends
the counter values as needed. The traditional MSRs always limit to 32bit,
even though the counter internally is larger (48 or 57 bits).
When the new capability is set, use the alternative range which do not
have these restrictions. This lowers the overhead of perf stat slightly
because it has to do less interrupts to accumulate the counter value.

Currently, APF mechanism relies on the #PF abuse where the token is being
passed through CR2. If we switch to using interrupts to deliver page-ready
notifications we need a different way to pass the data. Extent the existing
'struct kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data' with token information for page-ready
notifications.
While on it, rename 'reason' to 'flags'. This doesn't change the semantics
as we only have reasons '1' and '2' and these can be treated as bit flags
but KVM_PV_REASON_PAGE_READY is going away with interrupt based delivery
making 'reason' name misleading.
The newly introduced apf_put_user_ready() temporary puts both flags and
token information, this will be changed to put token only when we switch
to interrupt based notifications.

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array
members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in
which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to
zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding
some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also
help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues.
This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

Similar to VMX, the state that is captured through the currently available
IOCTLs is a mix of L1 and L2 state, dependent on whether the L2 guest was
running at the moment when the process was interrupted to save its state.
In particular, the SVM-specific state for nested virtualization includes
the L1 saved state (including the interrupt flag), the cached L2 controls,
and the GIF.

vmx_load_mmu_pgd is delaying the write of GUEST_CR3 to prepare_vmcs02 as
an optimization, but this is only correct before the nested vmentry.
If userspace is modifying CR3 with KVM_SET_SREGS after the VM has
already been put in guest mode, the value of CR3 will not be updated.
Remove the optimization, which almost never triggers anyway.

In case an interrupt arrives after nested.check_events but before the
call to kvm_cpu_has_injectable_intr, we could end up enabling the interrupt
window even if the interrupt is actually going to be a vmexit. This is
useless rather than harmful, but it really complicates reasoning about
SVM's handling of the VINTR intercept. We'd like to never bother with
the VINTR intercept if V_INTR_MASKING=1 && INTERCEPT_INTR=1, because in
that case there is no interrupt window and we can just exit the nested
guest whenever we want.
This patch moves the opening of the interrupt window inside
inject_pending_event. This consolidates the check for pending
interrupt/NMI/SMI in one place, and makes KVM's usage of immediate
exits more consistent, extending it beyond just nested virtualization.
There are two functional changes here. They only affect corner cases,
but overall they simplify the inject_pending_event.
- re-injection of still-pending events will also use req_immediate_exit
instead of using interrupt-window intercepts. This should have no impact
on performance on Intel since it simply replaces an interrupt-window
or NMI-window exit for a preemption-timer exit. On AMD, which has no
equivalent of the preemption time, it may incur some overhead but an
actual effect on performance should only be visible in pathological cases.
- kvm_arch_interrupt_allowed and kvm_vcpu_has_events will return true
if an interrupt, NMI or SMI is blocked by nested_run_pending. This
makes sense because entering the VM will allow it to make progress
and deliver the event.

read. Replace it with "return" to indicate they are different cases, only
the #DB and #BP check vcpu->guest_debug, while others don't care. And this
also improves the readability.

Take a u32 for the index in has_emulated_msr() to match hardware, which
treats MSR indices as unsigned 32-bit values. Functionally, taking a
signed int doesn't cause problems with the current code base, but could
theoretically cause problems with 32-bit KVM, e.g. if the index were
checked via a less-than statement, which would evaluate incorrectly for
MSR indices with bit 31 set.

Even though we might not allow the guest to use WAITPKG's new
instructions, we should tell KVM that the feature is supported by the
host CPU.
Note that vmx_waitpkg_supported checks that WAITPKG _can_ be set in
secondary execution controls as specified by VMX capability MSR, rather
that we actually enable it for a guest.

While optimizing posted-interrupt delivery especially for the timer
fastpath scenario, I measured kvm_x86_ops.deliver_posted_interrupt()
to introduce substantial latency because the processor has to perform
all vmentry tasks, ack the posted interrupt notification vector,
read the posted-interrupt descriptor etc.
This is not only slow, it is also unnecessary when delivering an
interrupt to the current CPU (as is the case for the LAPIC timer) because
PIR->IRR and IRR->RVI synchronization is already performed on vmentry
Therefore skip kvm_vcpu_trigger_posted_interrupt in this case, and
instead do vmx_sync_pir_to_irr() on the EXIT_FASTPATH_REENTER_GUEST
fastpath as well.

Don't propagate GUEST_SYSENTER_* from vmcs02 to vmcs12 on nested VM-Exit
as the vmcs12 fields are updated in vmx_set_msr(), and writes to the
corresponding MSRs are always intercepted by KVM when running L2.
Dropping the propagation was intended to be done in the same commit that
added vmcs12 writes in vmx_set_msr()[1], but for reasons unknown was
only shuffled around[2][3].

Explicitly truncate the data written to vmcs.SYSENTER_EIP/ESP on WRMSR
if the virtual CPU doesn't support 64-bit mode. The SYSENTER address
fields in the VMCS are natural width, i.e. bits 63:32 are dropped if the
CPU doesn't support Intel 64 architectures. This behavior is visible to
the guest after a VM-Exit/VM-Exit roundtrip, e.g. if the guest sets bits
63:32 in the actual MSR.

enums are borderline impossible to remember and result in code that is
visually difficult to audit, e.g.
if (!enable_ept)
ept_lpage_level = 0;
else if (cpu_has_vmx_ept_1g_page())
ept_lpage_level = PT_PDPE_LEVEL;
else if (cpu_has_vmx_ept_2m_page())
ept_lpage_level = PT_DIRECTORY_LEVEL;
else
ept_lpage_level = PT_PAGE_TABLE_LEVEL;
versus
if (!enable_ept)
ept_lpage_level = 0;
else if (cpu_has_vmx_ept_1g_page())
ept_lpage_level = PG_LEVEL_1G;
else if (cpu_has_vmx_ept_2m_page())
ept_lpage_level = PG_LEVEL_2M;

Use an enum for passing around the failure code for a failed VM-Enter
that results in VM-Exit to provide a level of indirection from the final
resting place of the failure code, vmcs.EXIT_QUALIFICATION. The exit
qualification field is an unsigned long, e.g. passing around
'u32 exit_qual' throws up red flags as it suggests KVM may be dropping
bits when reporting errors to L1. This is a red herring because the
only defined failure codes are 0, 2, 3, and 4, i.e. don't come remotely
close to overflowing a u32.
Setting vmcs.EXIT_QUALIFICATION on entry failure is further complicated
by the MSR load list, which returns the (1-based) entry that failed, and
the number of MSRs to load is a 32-bit VMCS field. At first blush, it
would appear that overflowing a u32 is possible, but the number of MSRs
that can be loaded is hardcapped at 4096 (limited by MSR_IA32_VMX_MISC).
In other words, there are two completely disparate types of data that
eventually get stuffed into vmcs.EXIT_QUALIFICATION, neither of which is
an 'unsigned long' in nature. This was presumably the reasoning for
switching to 'u32' when the related code was refactored in commit
ca0bde28f2ed6 ("kvm: nVMX: Split VMCS checks from nested_vmx_run()").
Using an enum for the failure code addresses the technically-possible-
but-will-never-happen scenario where Intel defines a failure code that
doesn't fit in a 32-bit integer. The enum variables and values will
either be automatically sized (gcc 5.4 behavior) or be subjected to some
combination of truncation. The former case will simply work, while the
latter will trigger a compile-time warning unless the compiler is being
particularly unhelpful.
Separating the failure code from the failed MSR entry allows for
disassociating both from vmcs.EXIT_QUALIFICATION, which avoids the
conundrum where KVM has to choose between 'u32 exit_qual' and tracking
values as 'unsigned long' that have no business being tracked as such.
To cement the split, set vmcs12->exit_qualification directly from the
entry error code or failed MSR index instead of bouncing through a local
variable.
Opportunistically rename the variables in load_vmcs12_host_state() and
vmx_set_nested_state() to call out that they're ignored, set exit_reason
on demand on nested VM-Enter failure, and add a comment in
nested_vmx_load_msr() to call out that returning 'i + 1' can't wrap.

Snapshot the TDP level now that it's invariant (SVM) or dependent only
on host capabilities and guest CPUID (VMX). This avoids having to call
kvm_x86_ops.get_tdp_level() when initializing a TDP MMU and/or

Separate the "core" TDP level handling from the nested EPT path to make
it clear that kvm_x86_ops.get_tdp_level() is used if and only if nested
EPT is not in use (kvm_init_shadow_ept_mmu() calculates the level from
the passed in vmcs12->eptp). Add a WARN_ON() to enforce that the
kvm_x86_ops hook is not called for nested EPT.
This sets the stage for snapshotting the non-"nested EPT" TDP page level
during kvm_cpuid_update() to avoid the retpoline associated with
kvm_x86_ops.get_tdp_level() when resetting the MMU, a relatively
frequent operation when running a nested guest.

Unconditionally check the validity of the incoming CR3 during nested
VM-Enter/VM-Exit to avoid invoking kvm_read_cr3() in the common case
where the guest isn't using PAE paging. If vmcs.GUEST_CR3 hasn't yet
been cached (common case), kvm_read_cr3() will trigger a VMREAD. The
VMREAD (~30 cycles) alone is likely slower than nested_cr3_valid()
(~5 cycles if vcpu->arch.maxphyaddr gets a cache hit), and the poor
exchange only gets worse when retpolines are enabled as the call to
kvm_x86_ops.cache_reg() will incur a retpoline (60+ cycles).
