53efe527ca KVM: x86: Make CR4.VMXE reserved for the guest
CR4.VMXE is reserved unless the VMX CPUID bit is set.  On Intel,
it is also tested by vmx_set_cr4, but AMD relies on kvm_valid_cr4,
so fix it.

b899c13277 KVM: x86: Create mask for guest CR4 reserved bits in kvm_update_cpuid()
Instead of creating the mask for guest CR4 reserved bits in kvm_valid_cr4(),
do it in kvm_update_cpuid() so that it can be reused instead of creating it
each time kvm_valid_cr4() is called.

6abe9c1386 KVM: X86: Move ignore_msrs handling upper the stack
MSR accesses can be one of:

  (1) KVM internal access,
  (2) userspace access (e.g., via KVM_SET_MSRS ioctl),
  (3) guest access.

The ignore_msrs was previously handled by kvm_get_msr_common() and
kvm_set_msr_common(), which is the bottom of the msr access stack.  It's
working in most cases, however it could dump unwanted warning messages to dmesg
even if kvm get/set the msrs internally when calling __kvm_set_msr() or
__kvm_get_msr() (e.g. kvm_cpuid()).  Ideally we only want to trap cases (2)
or (3), but not (1) above.

To achieve this, move the ignore_msrs handling upper until the callers of
__kvm_get_msr() and __kvm_set_msr().  To identify the "msr missing" event, a
new return value (KVM_MSR_RET_INVALID==2) is used for that.

eeeb4f67a6 KVM: x86: Introduce KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH_CURRENT to flush current ASID
Add KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH_CURRENT to allow optimized TLB flushing of VMX's
EPTP/VPID contexts[*] from the KVM MMU and/or in a deferred manner, e.g.
to flush L2's context during nested VM-Enter.

Convert KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH to KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH_CURRENT in flows where
the flush is directly associated with vCPU-scoped instruction emulation,
i.e. MOV CR3 and INVPCID.

Add a comment in vmx_vcpu_load_vmcs() above its KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH to
make it clear that it deliberately requests a flush of all contexts.

Service any pending flush request on nested VM-Exit as it's possible a
nested VM-Exit could occur after requesting a flush for L2.  Add the
same logic for nested VM-Enter even though it's _extremely_ unlikely
for flush to be pending on nested VM-Enter, but theoretically possible
(in the future) due to RSM (SMM) emulation.

[*] Intel also has an Address Space Identifier (ASID) concept, e.g.
    EPTP+VPID+PCID == ASID, it's just not documented in the SDM because
    the rules of invalidation are different based on which piece of the
    ASID is being changed, i.e. whether the EPTP, VPID, or PCID context
    must be invalidated.

9b5e85320f KVM: x86: Take a u64 when checking for a valid dr7 value
Take a u64 instead of an unsigned long in kvm_dr7_valid() to fix a build
warning on i386 due to right-shifting a 32-bit value by 32 when checking
for bits being set in dr7[63:32].

Alternatively, the warning could be resolved by rewriting the check to
use an i386-friendly method, but taking a u64 fixes another oddity on
32-bit KVM.  Beause KVM implements natural width VMCS fields as u64s to
avoid layout issues between 32-bit and 64-bit, a devious guest can stuff
vmcs12->guest_dr7 with a 64-bit value even when both the guest and host
are 32-bit kernels.  KVM eventually drops vmcs12->guest_dr7[63:32] when
propagating vmcs12->guest_dr7 to vmcs02, but ideally KVM would not rely
on that behavior for correctness.

b91991bf6b KVM: nVMX: Check GUEST_DR7 on vmentry of nested guests
According to section "Checks on Guest Control Registers, Debug Registers, and
and MSRs" in Intel SDM vol 3C, the following checks are performed on vmentry
of nested guests:

    If the "load debug controls" VM-entry control is 1, bits 63:32 in the DR7
    field must be 0.

In KVM, GUEST_DR7 is set prior to the vmcs02 VM-entry by kvm_set_dr() and the
latter synthesizes a #GP if any bit in the high dword in the former is set.
Hence this field needs to be checked in software.

de761ea792 KVM: x86: Perform non-canonical checks in 32-bit KVM
Remove the CONFIG_X86_64 condition from the low level non-canonical
helpers to effectively enable non-canonical checks on 32-bit KVM.
Non-canonical checks are performed by hardware if the CPU *supports*
64-bit mode, whether or not the CPU is actually in 64-bit mode is
irrelevant.

For the most part, skipping non-canonical checks on 32-bit KVM is ok-ish
because 32-bit KVM always (hopefully) drops bits 63:32 of whatever value
it's checking before propagating it to hardware, and architecturally,
the expected behavior for the guest is a bit of a grey area since the
vCPU itself doesn't support 64-bit mode.  I.e. a 32-bit KVM guest can
observe the missed checks in several paths, e.g. INVVPID and VM-Enter,
but it's debatable whether or not the missed checks constitute a bug
because technically the vCPU doesn't support 64-bit mode.

The primary motivation for enabling the non-canonical checks is defense
in depth.  As mentioned above, a guest can trigger a missed check via
INVVPID or VM-Enter.  INVVPID is straightforward as it takes a 64-bit
virtual address as part of its 128-bit INVVPID descriptor and fails if
the address is non-canonical, even if INVVPID is executed in 32-bit PM.
Nested VM-Enter is a bit more convoluted as it requires the guest to
write natural width VMCS fields via memory accesses and then VMPTRLD the
VMCS, but it's still possible.  In both cases, KVM is saved from a true
bug only because its flows that propagate values to hardware (correctly)
take "unsigned long" parameters and so drop bits 63:32 of the bad value.

Explicitly performing the non-canonical checks makes it less likely that
a bad value will be propagated to hardware, e.g. in the INVVPID case,
if __invvpid() didn't implicitly drop bits 63:32 then KVM would BUG() on
the resulting unexpected INVVPID failure due to hardware rejecting the
non-canonical address.

The only downside to enabling the non-canonical checks is that it adds a
relatively small amount of overhead, but the affected flows are not hot
paths, i.e. the overhead is negligible.

Note, KVM technically could gate the non-canonical checks on 32-bit KVM
with static_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_LM), but on bare metal that's an even
bigger waste of code for everyone except the 0.00000000000001% of the
population running on Yonah, and nested 32-bit on 64-bit already fudges
things with respect to 64-bit CPU behavior.

6441fa6178 KVM: x86: avoid incorrect writes to host MSR_IA32_SPEC_CTRL
If the guest is configured to have SPEC_CTRL but the host does not
(which is a nonsensical configuration but these are not explicitly
forbidden) then a host-initiated MSR write can write vmx->spec_ctrl
(respectively svm->spec_ctrl) and trigger a #GP when KVM tries to
restore the host value of the MSR.  Add a more comprehensive check
for valid bits of SPEC_CTRL, covering host CPUID flags and,
since we are at it and it is more correct that way, guest CPUID
flags too.

For AMD, remove the unnecessary is_guest_mode check around setting
the MSR interception bitmap, so that the code looks the same as
for Intel.

1e9e2622a1 KVM: VMX: FIXED+PHYSICAL mode single target IPI fastpath
ICR and TSCDEADLINE MSRs write cause the main MSRs write vmexits in our
product observation, multicast IPIs are not as common as unicast IPI like
RESCHEDULE_VECTOR and CALL_FUNCTION_SINGLE_VECTOR etc.

This patch introduce a mechanism to handle certain performance-critical
WRMSRs in a very early stage of KVM VMExit handler.

This mechanism is specifically used for accelerating writes to x2APIC ICR
that attempt to send a virtual IPI with physical destination-mode, fixed
delivery-mode and single target. Which was found as one of the main causes
of VMExits for Linux workloads.

The reason this mechanism significantly reduce the latency of such virtual
IPIs is by sending the physical IPI to the target vCPU in a very early stage
of KVM VMExit handler, before host interrupts are enabled and before expensive
operations such as reacquiring KVM’s SRCU lock.
Latency is reduced even more when KVM is able to use APICv posted-interrupt
mechanism (which allows to deliver the virtual IPI directly to target vCPU
without the need to kick it to host).

Testing on Xeon Skylake server:

The virtual IPI latency from sender send to receiver receive reduces
more than 200+ cpu cycles.

736c291c9f KVM: x86: Use gpa_t for cr2/gpa to fix TDP support on 32-bit KVM
Convert a plethora of parameters and variables in the MMU and page fault
flows from type gva_t to gpa_t to properly handle TDP on 32-bit KVM.

Thanks to PSE and PAE paging, 32-bit kernels can access 64-bit physical
addresses.  When TDP is enabled, the fault address is a guest physical
address and thus can be a 64-bit value, even when both KVM and its guest
are using 32-bit virtual addressing, e.g. VMX's VMCS.GUEST_PHYSICAL is a
64-bit field, not a natural width field.

Using a gva_t for the fault address means KVM will incorrectly drop the
upper 32-bits of the GPA.  Ditto for gva_to_gpa() when it is used to
translate L2 GPAs to L1 GPAs.

Opportunistically rename variables and parameters to better reflect the
dual address modes, e.g. use "cr2_or_gpa" for fault addresses and plain
"addr" instead of "vaddr" when the address may be either a GVA or an L2
GPA.  Similarly, use "gpa" in the nonpaging_page_fault() flows to avoid
a confusing "gpa_t gva" declaration; this also sets the stage for a
future patch to combing nonpaging_page_fault() and tdp_page_fault() with
minimal churn.

Sprinkle in a few comments to document flows where an address is known
to be a GVA and thus can be safely truncated to a 32-bit value.  Add
WARNs in kvm_handle_page_fault() and FNAME(gva_to_gpa_nested)() to help
document such cases and detect bugs.

0c5f81dad4 KVM: LAPIC: Inject timer interrupt via posted interrupt
Dedicated instances are currently disturbed by unnecessary jitter due
to the emulated lapic timers firing on the same pCPUs where the
vCPUs reside.  There is no hardware virtual timer on Intel for guest
like ARM, so both programming timer in guest and the emulated timer fires
incur vmexits.  This patch tries to avoid vmexit when the emulated timer
fires, at least in dedicated instance scenario when nohz_full is enabled.

In that case, the emulated timers can be offload to the nearest busy
housekeeping cpus since APICv has been found for several years in server
processors. The guest timer interrupt can then be injected via posted interrupts,
which are delivered by the housekeeping cpu once the emulated timer fires.

The host should tuned so that vCPUs are placed on isolated physical
processors, and with several pCPUs surplus for busy housekeeping.
If disabled mwait/hlt/pause vmexits keep the vCPUs in non-root mode,
~3% redis performance benefit can be observed on Skylake server, and the
number of external interrupt vmexits drops substantially.  Without patch

39497d7660 KVM: lapic: Track lapic timer advance per vCPU
Automatically adjusting the globally-shared timer advancement could
corrupt the timer, e.g. if multiple vCPUs are concurrently adjusting
the advancement value.  That could be partially fixed by using a local
variable for the arithmetic, but it would still be susceptible to a
race when setting timer_advance_adjust_done.

And because virtual_tsc_khz and tsc_scaling_ratio are per-vCPU, the
correct calibration for a given vCPU may not apply to all vCPUs.

Furthermore, lapic_timer_advance_ns is marked __read_mostly, which is
effectively violated when finding a stable advancement takes an extended
amount of timer.

Opportunistically change the definition of lapic_timer_advance_ns to
a u32 so that it matches the style of struct kvm_timer.  Explicitly
pass the param to kvm_create_lapic() so that it doesn't have to be
exposed to lapic.c, thus reducing the probability of unintentionally
using the global value instead of the per-vCPU value.

1811d979c7 x86/kvm: move kvm_load/put_guest_xcr0 into atomic context
guest xcr0 could leak into host when MCE happens in guest mode. Because
do_machine_check() could schedule out at a few places.

For example:

kvm_load_guest_xcr0
...
kvm_x86_ops->run(vcpu) {
  vmx_vcpu_run
    vmx_complete_atomic_exit
      kvm_machine_check
        do_machine_check
          do_memory_failure
            memory_failure
              lock_page

In this case, host_xcr0 is 0x2ff, guest vcpu xcr0 is 0xff. After schedule
out, host cpu has guest xcr0 loaded (0xff).

In __switch_to {
     switch_fpu_finish
       copy_kernel_to_fpregs
         XRSTORS

If any bit i in XSTATE_BV[i] == 1 and xcr0[i] == 0, XRSTORS will
generate #GP (In this case, bit 9). Then ex_handler_fprestore kicks in
and tries to reinitialize fpu by restoring init fpu state. Same story as
last #GP, except we get DOUBLE FAULT this time.

361209e054 KVM: Explicitly define the "memslot update in-progress" bit
KVM uses bit 0 of the memslots generation as an "update in-progress"
flag, which is used by x86 to prevent caching MMIO access while the
memslots are changing.  Although the intended behavior is flag-like,
e.g. MMIO sptes intentionally drop the in-progress bit so as to avoid
caching data from in-flux memslots, the implementation oftentimes treats
the bit as part of the generation number itself, e.g. incrementing the
generation increments twice, once to set the flag and once to clear it.

Prior to commit 4bd518f159 ("KVM: use separate generations for
each address space"), incorporating the "update in-progress" bit into
the generation number largely made sense, e.g. "real" generations are
even, "bogus" generations are odd, most code doesn't need to be aware of
the bit, etc...

Now that unique memslots generation numbers are assigned to each address
space, stealthing the in-progress status into the generation number
results in a wide variety of subtle code, e.g. kvm_create_vm() jumps
over bit 0 when initializing the memslots generation without any hint as
to why.

Explicitly define the flag and convert as much code as possible (which
isn't much) to actually treat it like a flag.  This paves the way for
eventually using a different bit for "update in-progress" so that it can
be a flag in truth instead of a awkward extension to the generation
number.

ddfd1730fd KVM: x86/mmu: Do not cache MMIO accesses while memslots are in flux
When installing new memslots, KVM sets bit 0 of the generation number to
indicate that an update is in-progress.  Until the update is complete,
there are no guarantees as to whether a vCPU will see the old or the new
memslots.  Explicity prevent caching MMIO accesses so as to avoid using
an access cached from the old memslots after the new memslots have been
installed.

Note that it is unclear whether or not disabling caching during the
update window is strictly necessary as there is no definitive
documentation as to what ordering guarantees KVM provides with respect
to updating memslots.  That being said, the MMIO spte code does not
allow reusing sptes created while an update is in-progress, and the
associated documentation explicitly states:

    We do not want to use an MMIO sptes created with an odd generation
    number, ...  If KVM is unlucky and creates an MMIO spte while the
    low bit is 1, the next access to the spte will always be a cache miss.

At the very least, disabling the per-vCPU MMIO cache during updates will
make its behavior consistent with the MMIO spte behavior and
documentation.

0447378a4a kvm: vmx: Nested VM-entry prereqs for event inj.
This patch extends the checks done prior to a nested VM entry.
Specifically, it extends the check_vmentry_prereqs function with checks
for fields relevant to the VM-entry event injection information, as
described in the Intel SDM, volume 3.

This patch is motivated by a syzkaller bug, where a bad VM-entry
interruption information field is generated in the VMCS02, which causes
the nested VM launch to fail. Then, KVM fails to resume L1.

While KVM should be improved to correctly resume L1 execution after a
failed nested launch, this change is justified because the existing code
to resume L1 is flaky/ad-hoc and the test coverage for resuming L1 is
sparse.

04140b4144 KVM: x86: Rename interrupt.pending to interrupt.injected
For exceptions & NMIs events, KVM code use the following
coding convention:
*) "pending" represents an event that should be injected to guest at
some point but it's side-effects have not yet occurred.
*) "injected" represents an event that it's side-effects have already
occurred.

However, interrupts don't conform to this coding convention.
All current code flows mark interrupt.pending when it's side-effects
have already taken place (For example, bit moved from LAPIC IRR to
ISR). Therefore, it makes sense to just rename
interrupt.pending to interrupt.injected.

This change follows logic of previous commit 664f8e26b0 ("KVM: X86:
Fix loss of exception which has not yet been injected") which changed
exception to follow this coding convention as well.

It is important to note that in case !lapic_in_kernel(vcpu),
interrupt.pending usage was and still incorrect.
In this case, interrrupt.pending can only be set using one of the
following ioctls: KVM_INTERRUPT, KVM_SET_VCPU_EVENTS and
KVM_SET_SREGS. Looking at how QEMU uses these ioctls, one can see that
QEMU uses them either to re-set an "interrupt.pending" state it has
received from KVM (via KVM_GET_VCPU_EVENTS interrupt.pending or
via KVM_GET_SREGS interrupt_bitmap) or by dispatching a new interrupt
from QEMU's emulated LAPIC which reset bit in IRR and set bit in ISR
before sending ioctl to KVM. So it seems that indeed "interrupt.pending"
in this case is also suppose to represent "interrupt.injected".
However, kvm_cpu_has_interrupt() & kvm_cpu_has_injectable_intr()
is misusing (now named) interrupt.injected in order to return if
there is a pending interrupt.
This leads to nVMX/nSVM not be able to distinguish if it should exit
from L2 to L1 on EXTERNAL_INTERRUPT on pending interrupt or should
re-inject an injected interrupt.
Therefore, add a FIXME at these functions for handling this issue.

This patch introduce no semantics change.

dd60d21706 KVM: x86: Fix perf timer mode IP reporting
KVM and perf have a special backdoor mechanism to report the IP for interrupts
re-executed after vm exit. This works for the NMIs that perf normally uses.

However when perf is in timer mode it doesn't work because the timer interrupt
doesn't get this special treatment. This is common when KVM is running
nested in another hypervisor which may not implement the PMU, so only
timer mode is available.

Call the functions to set up the backdoor IP also for non NMI interrupts.

I renamed the functions to set up the backdoor IP reporting to be more
appropiate for their new use.  The SVM change is only compile tested.

v2: Moved the functions inline.
For the normal interrupt case the before/after functions are now
called from x86.c, not arch specific code.
For the NMI case we still need to call it in the architecture
specific code, because it's already needed in the low level *_run
functions.

5c7d4f9ad3 KVM: nVMX: Fix bug of injecting L2 exception into L1
kvm_clear_exception_queue() should clear pending exception.
This also includes exceptions which were only marked pending but not
yet injected. This is because exception.pending is used for both L1
and L2 to determine if an exception should be raised to guest.
Note that an exception which is pending but not yet injected will
be raised again once the guest will be resumed.

Consider the following scenario:
1) L0 KVM with ignore_msrs=false.
2) L1 prepare vmcs12 with the following:
    a) No intercepts on MSR (MSR_BITMAP exist and is filled with 0).
    b) No intercept for #GP.
    c) vmx-preemption-timer is configured.
3) L1 enters into L2.
4) L2 reads an unhandled MSR that exists in MSR_BITMAP
(such as 0x1fff).

L2 RDMSR could be handled as described below:
1) L2 exits to L0 on RDMSR and calls handle_rdmsr().
2) handle_rdmsr() calls kvm_inject_gp() which sets
KVM_REQ_EVENT, exception.pending=true and exception.injected=false.
3) vcpu_enter_guest() consumes KVM_REQ_EVENT and calls
inject_pending_event() which calls vmx_check_nested_events()
which sees that exception.pending=true but
nested_vmx_check_exception() returns 0 and therefore does nothing at
this point. However let's assume it later sees vmx-preemption-timer
expired and therefore exits from L2 to L1 by calling
nested_vmx_vmexit().
4) nested_vmx_vmexit() calls prepare_vmcs12()
which calls vmcs12_save_pending_event() but it does nothing as
exception.injected is false. Also prepare_vmcs12() calls
kvm_clear_exception_queue() which does nothing as
exception.injected is already false.
5) We now return from vmx_check_nested_events() with 0 while still
having exception.pending=true!
6) Therefore inject_pending_event() continues
and we inject L2 exception to L1!...

This commit will fix above issue by changing step (4) to
clear exception.pending in kvm_clear_exception_queue().

431f5d4443 KVM: x86: simplify kvm_mwait_in_guest()
If Intel/AMD implements MWAIT, we expect that it works well and only
reject known bugs;  no reason to do it the other way around for minor
vendors.  (Not that they are relevant ATM.)

This allows further simplification of kvm_mwait_in_guest().
And use boot_cpu_has() instead of "cpu_has(&boot_cpu_data," while at it.
