Similar to kvm_x86_call(), kvm_pmu_call() is added to streamline the usage
of static calls of kvm_pmu_ops, which improves code readability.

Introduces kvm_x86_call(), to streamline the usage of static calls of
kvm_x86_ops. The current implementation of these calls is verbose and
could lead to alignment challenges. This makes the code susceptible to
exceeding the "80 columns per single line of code" limit as defined in
the coding-style document. Another issue with the existing implementation
is that the addition of kvm_x86_ prefix to hooks at the static_call sites
hinders code readability and navigation. kvm_x86_call() is added to
improve code readability and maintainability, while adhering to the coding
style guidelines.

The use of static_call_cond() is essentially the same as static_call() on
x86 (e.g. static_call() now handles a NULL pointer as a NOP), so replace
it with static_call() to simplify the code.

The GHCB 2.0 specification defines 2 GHCB request types to allow SNP guests
to send encrypted messages/requests to firmware: SNP Guest Requests and SNP
Extended Guest Requests. These encrypted messages are used for things like
servicing attestation requests issued by the guest. Implementing support for
these is required to be fully GHCB-compliant.
For the most part, KVM only needs to handle forwarding these requests to
firmware (to be issued via the SNP_GUEST_REQUEST firmware command defined
in the SEV-SNP Firmware ABI), and then forwarding the encrypted response to
the guest.
However, in the case of SNP Extended Guest Requests, the host is also
able to provide the certificate data corresponding to the endorsement key
used by firmware to sign attestation report requests. This certificate data
is provided by userspace because:
1) It allows for different keys/key types to be used for each particular
guest with requiring any sort of KVM API to configure the certificate
table in advance on a per-guest basis.
2) It provides additional flexibility with how attestation requests might
be handled during live migration where the certificate data for
source/dest might be different.
3) It allows all synchronization between certificates and firmware/signing
key updates to be handled purely by userspace rather than requiring
some in-kernel mechanism to facilitate it. [1]
To support fetching certificate data from userspace, a new KVM exit type will
be needed to handle fetching the certificate from userspace. An attempt to
define a new KVM_EXIT_COCO/KVM_EXIT_COCO_REQ_CERTS exit type to handle this
was introduced in v1 of this patchset, but is still being discussed by
community, so for now this patchset only implements a stub version of SNP
Extended Guest Requests that does not provide certificate data, but is still
enough to provide compliance with the GHCB 2.0 spec.
|

sev_guest.h currently contains various definitions relating to the
format of SNP_GUEST_REQUEST commands to SNP firmware. Currently only the
sev-guest driver makes use of them, but when the KVM side of this is
implemented there's a need to parse the SNP_GUEST_REQUEST header to
determine whether additional information needs to be provided to the
guest. Prepare for this by moving those definitions to a common header
that's shared by host/guest code so that KVM can also make use of them.

KVM generic changes for 6.11
- Enable halt poll shrinking by default, as Intel found it to be a clear win.
- Setup empty IRQ routing when creating a VM to avoid having to synchronize

- Rework the sched_in/out() paths to replace kvm_arch_sched_in() with a flag
that arch code can use for hooking both sched_in() and sched_out().
- Take the vCPU @id as an "unsigned long" instead of "u32" to avoid
truncating a bogus value from userspace, e.g. to help userspace detect bugs.
- Mark a vCPU as preempted if and only if it's scheduled out while in the
KVM_RUN loop, e.g. to avoid marking it preempted and thus writing guest
memory when retrieving guest state during live migration blackout.

Merge minor word-at-a-time instruction choice improvements for x86 and
arm64.
This is the second of four branches that came out of me looking at the
code generation for path lookup on arm64.
The word-at-a-time infrastructure is used to do string operations in
chunks of one word both when copying the pathname from user space (in
strncpy_from_user()), and when parsing and hashing the individual path
components (in link_path_walk()).
In particular, the "find the first zero byte" uses various bit tricks to
figure out the end of the string or path component, and get the length
without having to do things one byte at a time. Both x86-64 and arm64
had less than optimal code choices for that.
The commit message for the arm64 change in particular tries to explain
the exact code flow for the zero byte finding for people who care. It's
made a bit more complicated by the fact that we support big-endian
hardware too, and so we have some extra abstraction layers to allow
different models for finding the zero byte, quite apart from the issue
of picking specialized instructions.

Merge runtime constants infrastructure with implementations for x86 and
arm64.
This is one of four branches that came out of me looking at profiles of
my kernel build filesystem load on my 128-core Altra arm64 system, where
pathname walking and the user copies (particularly strncpy_from_user()
for fetching the pathname from user space) is very hot.
This is a very specialized "instruction alternatives" model where the
dentry hash pointer and hash count will be constants for the lifetime of
the kernel, but the allocation are not static but done early during the
kernel boot. In order to avoid the pointer load and dynamic shift, we
just rewrite the constants in the instructions in place.
We can't use the "generic" alternative instructions infrastructure,
because different architectures do it very differently, and it's
actually simpler to just have very specific helpers, with a fallback to
the generic ("old") model of just using variables for architectures that
do not implement the runtime constant patching infrastructure.

When clone3() was introduced, it was not obvious how each architecture
deals with setting up the stack and keeping the register contents in
a fork()-like system call, so this was left for the architecture
maintainers to implement, with __ARCH_WANT_SYS_CLONE3 defined by those
that already implement it.
Five years later, we still have a few architectures left that are missing
clone3(), and the macro keeps getting in the way as it's fundamentally
different from all the other __ARCH_WANT_SYS_* macros that are meant
to provide backwards-compatibility with applications using older
syscalls that are no longer provided by default.
Address this by reversing the polarity of the macro, adding an
__ARCH_BROKEN_SYS_CLONE3 macro to all architectures that don't
already provide the syscall, and remove __ARCH_WANT_SYS_CLONE3
from all the other ones.

LAM can only be enabled when a process is single-threaded. But _kernel_
threads can temporarily use a single-threaded process's mm. That means
that a context-switching kernel thread can race and observe the mm's LAM
metadata (mm->context.lam_cr3_mask) change.
The context switch code does two logical things with that metadata:
populate CR3 and populate 'cpu_tlbstate.lam'. If it hits this race,
'cpu_tlbstate.lam' and CR3 can end up out of sync.
This de-synchronization is currently harmless. But it is confusing and
might lead to warnings or real bugs.
Update set_tlbstate_lam_mode() to take in the LAM mask and untag mask
instead of an mm_struct pointer, and while we are at it, rename it to
cpu_tlbstate_update_lam(). This should also make it clearer that we are
updating cpu_tlbstate. In switch_mm_irqs_off(), read the LAM mask once
and use it for both the cpu_tlbstate update and the CR3 update.

Hardware has two RMID configuration options for SNC systems. The default
mode divides RMID counters between SNC nodes. E.g. with 200 RMIDs and
two SNC nodes per L3 cache RMIDs 0..99 are used on node 0, and 100..199
on node 1. This isn't compatible with Linux resctrl usage. On this
example system a process using RMID 5 would only update monitor counters
while running on SNC node 0.
The other mode is "RMID Sharing Mode". This is enabled by clearing bit
0 of the RMID_SNC_CONFIG (0xCA0) model specific register. In this mode
the number of logical RMIDs is the number of physical RMIDs (from CPUID
leaf 0xF) divided by the number of SNC nodes per L3 cache instance. A
process can use the same RMID across different SNC nodes.
See the "Intel Resource Director Technology Architecture Specification"
for additional details.
When SNC is enabled, update the MSR when a monitor domain is marked
online. Technically this is overkill. It only needs to be done once
per L3 cache instance rather than per SNC domain. But there is no harm
in doing it more than once, and this is not in a critical path.

Between kexec and confidential VM support, handling the EFI memory maps
correctly on x86 is already proving to be rather difficult (as opposed
to other EFI architectures which manage to never modify the EFI memory
map to begin with)
EFI fake memory map support is essentially a development hack (for
testing new support for the 'special purpose' and 'more reliable' EFI
memory attributes) that leaked into production code. The regions marked
in this manner are not actually recognized as such by the firmware
itself or the EFI stub (and never have), and marking memory as 'more
reliable' seems rather futile if the underlying memory is just ordinary
RAM.
Marking memory as 'special purpose' in this way is also dubious, but may
be in use in production code nonetheless. However, the same should be
achievable by using the memmap= command line option with the ! operator.
EFI fake memmap support is not enabled by any of the major distros
(Debian, Fedora, SUSE, Ubuntu) and does not exist on other
architectures, so let's drop support for it.

objtool complains:
arch/x86/kvm/kvm.o: warning: objtool: .altinstr_replacement+0xc5: call without frame pointer save/setup
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: .altinstr_replacement+0x2eb: call without frame pointer save/setup
Make sure %rSP is an output operand to the respective asm() statements.
The test_cc() hunk and ALT_OUTPUT_SP() courtesy of peterz. Also from him
add some helpful debugging info to the documentation.
Now on to the explanations:
tl;dr: The alternatives macros are pretty fragile.
If I do ALT_OUTPUT_SP(output) in order to be able to package in a %rsp
reference for objtool so that a stack frame gets properly generated, the
inline asm input operand with positional argument 0 in clear_page():
"0" (page)
gets "renumbered" due to the added
: "+r" (current_stack_pointer), "=D" (page)
and then gcc says:
./arch/x86/include/asm/page_64.h:53:9: error: inconsistent operand constraints in an ‘asm’
The fix is to use an explicit "D" constraint which points to a singleton
register class (gcc terminology) which ends up doing what is expected
here: the page pointer - input and output - should be in the same %rdi
register.
Other register classes have more than one register in them - example:
"r" and "=r" or "A":
‘A’
The ‘a’ and ‘d’ registers. This class is used for
instructions that return double word results in the ‘ax:dx’
register pair. Single word values will be allocated either in
‘ax’ or ‘dx’.
so using "D" and "=D" just works in this particular case.
And yes, one would say, sure, why don't you do "+D" but then:
: "+r" (current_stack_pointer), "+D" (page)
: [old] "i" (clear_page_orig), [new1] "i" (clear_page_rep), [new2] "i" (clear_page_erms),
: "cc", "memory", "rax", "rcx")
now find the Waldo^Wcomma which throws a wrench into all this.
Because that silly macro has an "input..." consume-all last macro arg
and in it, one is supposed to supply input *and* clobbers, leading to
silly syntax snafus.
Yap, they need to be cleaned up, one fine day...

The kernel test robot reported that clang no longer compiles the 32-bit
x86 kernel in some configurations due to commit 95ece48165c1
("locking/atomic/x86: Rewrite x86_32 arch_atomic64_{,fetch}_{and,or,xor}()
functions").
The build fails with
arch/x86/include/asm/cmpxchg_32.h:149:9: error: inline assembly requires more registers than available
and the reason seems to be that not only does the cmpxchg8b instruction
need four fixed registers (EDX:EAX and ECX:EBX), with the emulation
fallback the inline asm also wants a fifth fixed register for the
address (it uses %esi for that, but that's just a software convention
with cmpxchg8b_emu).
Avoiding using another pointer input to the asm (and just forcing it to
use the "0(%esi)" addressing that we end up requiring for the sw
fallback) seems to fix the issue.

Refine the macros which define maximum General Purpose (GP) and fixed
counter numbers.
Currently the macro KVM_INTEL_PMC_MAX_GENERIC is used to represent the
maximum supported General Purpose (GP) counter number ambiguously across
Intel and AMD platforms. This would cause issues if AMD begins to support
more GP counters than Intel.
Thus a bunch of new macros including vendor specific and vendor
independent are introduced to replace the old macros. The vendor
independent macros are used in x86 common code to hide vendor difference
and eliminate the ambiguity.
No logic changes are introduced in this patch.

Check for a Requested Virtual Interrupt, i.e. a virtual interrupt that is
pending delivery, in vmx_has_nested_events() and drop the one-off
kvm_x86_ops.guest_apic_has_interrupt() hook.
In addition to dropping a superfluous hook, this fixes a bug where KVM
would incorrectly treat virtual interrupts _for L2_ as always enabled due
to kvm_arch_interrupt_allowed(), by way of vmx_interrupt_blocked(),
treating IRQs as enabled if L2 is active and vmcs12 is configured to exit
on IRQs, i.e. KVM would treat a virtual interrupt for L2 as a valid wake
event based on L1's IRQ blocking status.

When requesting an immediate exit from L2 in order to inject a pending
event, do so only if the pending event actually requires manual injection,
i.e. if and only if KVM actually needs to regain control in order to
deliver the event.
Avoiding the "immediate exit" isn't simply an optimization, it's necessary
to make forward progress, as the "already expired" VMX preemption timer
trick that KVM uses to force a VM-Exit has higher priority than events
that aren't directly injected.
At present time, this is a glorified nop as all events processed by
vmx_has_nested_events() require injection, but that will not hold true in
the future, e.g. if there's a pending virtual interrupt in vmcs02.RVI.
I.e. if KVM is trying to deliver a virtual interrupt to L2, the expired
VMX preemption timer will trigger VM-Exit before the virtual interrupt is
delivered, and KVM will effectively hang the vCPU in an endless loop of
forced immediate VM-Exits (because the pending virtual interrupt never
goes away).

An unintended consequence of commit 9c573cd31343 ("randomize_kstack:
Improve entropy diffusion") was that the per-architecture entropy size
filtering reduced how many bits were being added to the mix, rather than
how many bits were being used during the offsetting. All architectures
fell back to the existing default of 0x3FF (10 bits), which will consume
at most 1KiB of stack space. It seems that this is working just fine,
so let's avoid the confusion and update everything to use the default.
The prior intent of the per-architecture limits were:
arm64: capped at 0x1FF (9 bits), 5 bits effective
powerpc: uncapped (10 bits), 6 or 7 bits effective
riscv: uncapped (10 bits), 6 bits effective
x86: capped at 0xFF (8 bits), 5 (x86_64) or 6 (ia32) bits effective
s390: capped at 0xFF (8 bits), undocumented effective entropy
Current discussion has led to just dropping the original per-architecture
filters. The additional entropy appears to be safe for arm64, x86,
and s390. Quoting Arnd, "There is no point pretending that 15.75KB is
somehow safe to use while 15.00KB is not."

Introduce a vmware_hypercall family of functions. It is a common implementation
to be used by the VMware guest code and virtual device drivers in architecture
independent manner.
The API consists of vmware_hypercallX and vmware_hypercall_hb_{out,in}
set of functions analogous to KVM's hypercall API. Architecture-specific
implementation is hidden inside.
It will simplify future enhancements in VMware hypercalls such as SEV-ES and
TDX related changes without needs to modify a caller in device drivers code.
Current implementation extends an idea from
bac7b4e84323 ("x86/vmware: Update platform detection code for VMCALL/VMMCALL hypercalls")
to have a slow, but safe path vmware_hypercall_slow() earlier during the boot
when alternatives are not yet applied. The code inherits VMWARE_CMD logic from
the commit mentioned above.
Move common macros from vmware.c to vmware.h.
