2025-05-28Merge branch 'kvm-lockdep-common' into HEADPaolo Bonzini1-0/+59
Introduce new mutex locking functions mutex_trylock_nest_lock() and mutex_lock_killable_nest_lock() and use them to clean up locking of all vCPUs for a VM. For x86, this removes some complex code that was used instead of lockdep's "nest_lock" feature. For ARM and RISC-V, this removes a lockdep warning when the VM is configured to have more than MAX_LOCK_DEPTH vCPUs, and removes a fair amount of duplicate code by sharing the logic across all architectures.

2025-05-27KVM: add kvm_lock_all_vcpus and kvm_trylock_all_vcpusMaxim Levitsky1-0/+59
In a few cases, usually in the initialization code, KVM locks all vCPUs of a VM to ensure that userspace doesn't do funny things while KVM performs an operation that affects the whole VM. Until now, all these operations were implemented using custom code, and all of them share the same problem: Lockdep can't cope with simultaneous locking of a large number of locks of the same class. However if these locks are taken while another lock is already held, which is luckily the case, it is possible to take advantage of little known _nest_lock feature of lockdep which allows in this case to have an unlimited number of locks of same class to be taken. To implement this, create two functions: kvm_lock_all_vcpus() and kvm_trylock_all_vcpus() Both functions are needed because some code that will be replaced in the subsequent patches, uses mutex_trylock, instead of regular mutex_lock.

2025-04-24KVM: SVM: Fix SNP AP destroy race with VMRUNTom Lendacky1-4/+15
An AP destroy request for a target vCPU is typically followed by an RMPADJUST to remove the VMSA attribute from the page currently being used as the VMSA for the target vCPU. This can result in a vCPU that is about to VMRUN to exit with #VMEXIT_INVALID. This usually does not happen as APs are typically sitting in HLT when being destroyed and therefore the vCPU thread is not running at the time. However, if HLT is allowed inside the VM, then the vCPU could be about to VMRUN when the VMSA attribute is removed from the VMSA page, resulting in a #VMEXIT_INVALID when the vCPU actually issues the VMRUN and causing the guest to crash. An RMPADJUST against an in-use (already running) VMSA results in a #NPF for the vCPU issuing the RMPADJUST, so the VMSA attribute cannot be changed until the VMRUN for target vCPU exits. The Qemu command line option '-overcommit cpu-pm=on' is an example of allowing HLT inside the guest. Update the KVM_REQ_UPDATE_PROTECTED_GUEST_STATE event to include the KVM_REQUEST_WAIT flag. The kvm_vcpu_kick() function will not wait for requests to be honored, so create kvm_make_request_and_kick() that will add a new event request and honor the KVM_REQUEST_WAIT flag. This will ensure that the target vCPU sees the AP destroy request before returning to the initiating vCPU should the target vCPU be in guest mode.

2025-04-07Merge branch 'kvm-tdx-initial' into HEADPaolo Bonzini2-22/+15
This large commit contains the initial support for TDX in KVM. All x86 parts enable the host-side hypercalls that KVM uses to talk to the TDX module, a software component that runs in a special CPU mode called SEAM (Secure Arbitration Mode). The series is in turn split into multiple sub-series, each with a separate merge commit: - Initialization: basic setup for using the TDX module from KVM, plus ioctls to create TDX VMs and vCPUs. - MMU: in TDX, private and shared halves of the address space are mapped by different EPT roots, and the private half is managed by the TDX module. Using the support that was added to the generic MMU code in 6.14, add support for TDX's secure page tables to the Intel side of KVM. Generic KVM code takes care of maintaining a mirror of the secure page tables so that they can be queried efficiently, and ensuring that changes are applied to both the mirror and the secure EPT. - vCPU enter/exit: implement the callbacks that handle the entry of a TDX vCPU (via the SEAMCALL TDH.VP.ENTER) and the corresponding save/restore of host state. - Userspace exits: introduce support for guest TDVMCALLs that KVM forwards to userspace. These correspond to the usual KVM_EXIT_* "heavyweight vmexits" but are triggered through a different mechanism, similar to VMGEXIT for SEV-ES and SEV-SNP. - Interrupt handling: support for virtual interrupt injection as well as handling VM-Exits that are caused by vectored events. Exclusive to TDX are machine-check SMIs, which the kernel already knows how to handle through the kernel machine check handler (commit 7911f145de5f, "x86/mce: Implement recovery for errors in TDX/SEAM non-root mode") - Loose ends: handling of the remaining exits from the TDX module, including EPT violation/misconfig and several TDVMCALL leaves that are handled in the kernel (CPUID, HLT, RDMSR/WRMSR, GetTdVmCallInfo); plus returning an error or ignoring operations that are not supported by TDX guests Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

Not taking mmu_lock allows multiple aging actions to run in parallel, and more importantly avoids stalling vCPUs. This includes an implementation of per-rmap-entry locking; aging the gfn is done with only a per-rmap single-bin spinlock taken, whereas locking an rmap for write requires taking both the per-rmap spinlock and the mmu_lock. Note that this decreases slightly the accuracy of accessed-page information, because changes to the SPTE outside aging might not use atomic operations even if they could race against a clear of the Accessed bit. This is deliberate because KVM and mm/ tolerate false positives/negatives for accessed information, and testing has shown that reducing the latency of aging is far more beneficial to overall system performance than providing "perfect" young/old information. - Defer runtime CPUID updates until KVM emulates a CPUID instruction, to coalesce updates when multiple pieces of vCPU state are changing, e.g. as part of a nested transition - Fix a variety of nested emulation bugs, and add VMX support for synthesizing nested VM-Exit on interception (instead of injecting #UD into L2) - Drop "support" for async page faults for protected guests that do not set SEND_ALWAYS (i.e. that only want async page faults at CPL3) - Bring a bit of sanity to x86's VM teardown code, which has accumulated a lot of cruft over the years.

2025-03-20Merge branch 'kvm-nvmx-and-vm-teardown' into HEADPaolo Bonzini1-1/+8
The immediate issue being fixed here is a nVMX bug where KVM fails to detect that, after nested VM-Exit, L1 has a pending IRQ (or NMI). However, checking for a pending interrupt accesses the legacy PIC, and x86's kvm_arch_destroy_vm() currently frees the PIC before destroying vCPUs, i.e. checking for IRQs during the forced nested VM-Exit results in a NULL pointer deref; that's a prerequisite for the nVMX fix. The remaining patches attempt to bring a bit of sanity to x86's VM teardown code, which has accumulated a lot of cruft over the years. E.g. KVM currently unloads each vCPU's MMUs in a separate operation from destroying vCPUs, all because when guest SMP support was added, KVM had a kludgy MMU teardown flow that broke when a VM had more than one 1 vCPU. And that oddity lived on, for 18 years... Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
2025-03-14KVM: TDX: Handle TDX PV MMIO hypercallSean Christopherson1-0/+1
Handle TDX PV MMIO hypercall when TDX guest calls TDVMCALL with the leaf #VE.RequestMMIO (same value as EXIT_REASON_EPT_VIOLATION) according to TDX Guest Host Communication Interface (GHCI) spec. For TDX guests, VMM is not allowed to access vCPU registers and the private memory, and the code instructions must be fetched from the private memory. So MMIO emulation implemented for non-TDX VMs is not possible for TDX guests. In TDX the MMIO regions are instead configured by VMM to trigger a #VE exception in the guest. The #VE handling is supposed to emulate the MMIO instruction inside the guest and convert it into a TDVMCALL with the leaf #VE.RequestMMIO, which equals to EXIT_REASON_EPT_VIOLATION. The requested MMIO address must be in shared GPA space. The shared bit is stripped after check because the existing code for MMIO emulation is not aware of the shared bit. The MMIO GPA shouldn't have a valid memslot, also the attribute of the GPA should be shared. KVM could do the checks before exiting to userspace, however, even if KVM does the check, there still will be race conditions between the check in KVM and the emulation of MMIO access in userspace due to a memslot hotplug, or a memory attribute conversion. If userspace doesn't check the attribute of the GPA and the attribute happens to be private, it will not pose a security risk or cause an MCE, but it can lead to another issue. E.g., in QEMU, treating a GPA with private attribute as shared when it falls within RAM's range can result in extra memory consumption during the emulation to the access to the HVA of the GPA. There are two options: 1) Do the check both in KVM and userspace. 2) Do the check only in QEMU. This patch chooses option 2, i.e. KVM omits the memslot and attribute checks, and expects userspace to do the checks. Similar to normal MMIO emulation, try to handle the MMIO in kernel first, if kernel can't support it, forward the request to userspace. Export needed symbols used for MMIO handling. Fragments handling is not needed for TDX PV MMIO because GPA is provided, if a MMIO access crosses page boundary, it should be continuous in GPA. Also, the size is limited to 1, 2, 4, 8 bytes. No further split needed. Allow cross page access because no extra handling needed after checking both start and end GPA are shared GPAs.

2025-03-14KVM: VMX: Initialize TDX during KVM module loadKai Huang1-1/+2
Before KVM can use TDX to create and run TDX guests, TDX needs to be initialized from two perspectives: 1) TDX module must be initialized properly to a working state; 2) A per-cpu TDX initialization, a.k.a the TDH.SYS.LP.INIT SEAMCALL must be done on any logical cpu before it can run any other TDX SEAMCALLs. The TDX host core-kernel provides two functions to do the above two respectively: tdx_enable() and tdx_cpu_enable(). There are two options in terms of when to initialize TDX: initialize TDX at KVM module loading time, or when creating the first TDX guest. Choose to initialize TDX during KVM module loading time: Initializing TDX module is both memory and CPU time consuming: 1) the kernel needs to allocate a non-trivial size(~1/256) of system memory as metadata used by TDX module to track each TDX-usable memory page's status; 2) the TDX module needs to initialize this metadata, one entry for each TDX-usable memory page. Also, the kernel uses alloc_contig_pages() to allocate those metadata chunks, because they are large and need to be physically contiguous. alloc_contig_pages() can fail. If initializing TDX when creating the first TDX guest, then there's chance that KVM won't be able to run any TDX guests albeit KVM _declares_ to be able to support TDX. This isn't good for the user. On the other hand, initializing TDX at KVM module loading time can make sure KVM is providing a consistent view of whether KVM can support TDX to the user. Always only try to initialize TDX after VMX has been initialized. TDX is based on VMX, and if VMX fails to initialize then TDX is likely to be broken anyway. Also, in practice, supporting TDX will require part of VMX and common x86 infrastructure in working order, so TDX cannot be enabled alone w/o VMX support. There are two cases that can result in failure to initialize TDX: 1) TDX cannot be supported (e.g., because of TDX is not supported or enabled by hardware, or module is not loaded, or missing some dependency in KVM's configuration); 2) Any unexpected error during TDX bring-up. For the first case only mark TDX is disabled but still allow KVM module to be loaded. For the second case just fail to load the KVM module so that the user can be aware. Because TDX costs additional memory, don't enable TDX by default. Add a new module parameter 'enable_tdx' to allow the user to opt-in. Note, the name tdx_init() has already been taken by the early boot code. Use tdx_bringup() for initializing TDX (and tdx_cleanup() since KVM doesn't actually teardown TDX). They don't match vt_init()/vt_exit(), vmx_init()/vmx_exit() etc but it's not end of the world. Also, once initialized, the TDX module cannot be disabled and enabled again w/o the TDX module runtime update, which isn't supported by the kernel. After TDX is enabled, nothing needs to be done when KVM disables hardware virtualization, e.g., when offlining CPU, or during suspend/resume. TDX host core-kernel code internally tracks TDX status and can handle "multiple enabling" scenario. Similar to KVM_AMD_SEV, add a new KVM_INTEL_TDX Kconfig to guide KVM TDX code. Make it depend on INTEL_TDX_HOST but not replace INTEL_TDX_HOST because in the longer term there's a use case that requires making SEAMCALLs w/o KVM as mentioned by Dan [1].

2025-03-14KVM: Export hardware virtualization enabling/disabling functionsKai Huang1-14/+4
To support TDX, KVM will need to enable TDX during KVM module loading time. Enabling TDX requires enabling hardware virtualization first so that all online CPUs (and the new CPU going online) are in post-VMXON state. KVM by default enables hardware virtualization but that is done in kvm_init(), which must be the last step after all initialization is done thus is too late for enabling TDX. Export functions to enable/disable hardware virtualization so that TDX code can use them to handle hardware virtualization enabling before kvm_init().

After freeing a vCPU, assert that it is no longer reachable, and that kvm_get_vcpu() doesn't return garbage or a pointer to some other vCPU. While KVM obviously shouldn't be attempting to access a freed vCPU, it's all too easy for KVM to make a VM-wide request, e.g. via KVM_BUG_ON() or kvm_flush_remote_tlbs(). Alternatively, KVM could short-circuit problematic paths if the VM's refcount has gone to zero, e.g. in kvm_make_all_cpus_request(), or KVM could try disallow making global requests during teardown. But given that deleting the vCPU from the array Just Works, adding logic to the requests path is unnecessary, and trying to make requests illegal during teardown would be a fool's errand.

2025-01-20Merge branch 'kvm-mirror-page-tables' into HEADPaolo Bonzini2-13/+37
As part of enabling TDX virtual machines, support support separation of private/shared EPT into separate roots. Confidential computing solutions almost invariably have concepts of private and shared memory, but they may different a lot in the details. In SEV, for example, the bit is handled more like a permission bit as far as the page tables are concerned: the private/shared bit is not included in the physical address. For TDX, instead, the bit is more like a physical address bit, with the host mapping private memory in one half of the address space and shared in another. Furthermore, the two halves are mapped by different EPT roots and only the shared half is managed by KVM; the private half (also called Secure EPT in Intel documentation) gets managed by the privileged TDX Module via SEAMCALLs. As a result, the operations that actually change the private half of the EPT are limited and relatively slow compared to reading a PTE. For this reason the design for KVM is to keep a mirror of the private EPT in host memory. This allows KVM to quickly walk the EPT and only perform the slower private EPT operations when it needs to actually modify mid-level private PTEs. There are thus three sets of EPT page tables: external, mirror and direct. In the case of TDX (the only user of this framework) the first two cover private memory, whereas the third manages shared memory: external EPT - Hidden within the TDX module, modified via TDX module calls. mirror EPT - Bookkeeping tree used as an optimization by KVM, not used by the processor. direct EPT - Normal EPT that maps unencrypted shared memory. Managed like the EPT of a normal VM. Modifying external EPT ---------------------- Modifications to the mirrored page tables need to also perform the same operations to the private page tables, which will be handled via kvm_x86_ops. Although this prep series does not interact with the TDX module at all to actually configure the private EPT, it does lay the ground work for doing this. In some ways updating the private EPT is as simple as plumbing PTE modifications through to also call into the TDX module; however, the locking is more complicated because inserting a single PTE cannot anymore be done atomically with a single CMPXCHG. For this reason, the existing FROZEN_SPTE mechanism is used whenever a call to the TDX module updates the private EPT. FROZEN_SPTE acts basically as a spinlock on a PTE. Besides protecting operation of KVM, it limits the set of cases in which the TDX module will encounter contention on its own PTE locks. Zapping external EPT -------------------- While the framework tries to be relatively generic, and to be understandable without knowing TDX much in detail, some requirements of TDX sometimes leak; for example the private page tables also cannot be zapped while the range has anything mapped, so the mirrored/private page tables need to be protected from KVM operations that zap any non-leaf PTEs, for example kvm_mmu_reset_context() or kvm_mmu_zap_all_fast(). For normal VMs, guest memory is zapped for several reasons: user memory getting paged out by the guest, memslots getting deleted, passthrough of devices with non-coherent DMA. Confidential computing adds to these the conversion of memory between shared and privates. These operations must not zap any private memory that is in use by the guest. This is possible because the only zapping that is out of the control of KVM/userspace is paging out userspace memory, which cannot apply to guestmemfd operations. Thus a TDX VM will only zap private memory from memslot deletion and from conversion between private and shared memory which is triggered by the guest. To avoid zapping too much memory, enums are introduced so that operations can choose to target only private or shared memory, and thus only direct or mirror EPT. For example: Memslot deletion - Private and shared MMU notifier based zapping - Shared only Conversion to shared - Private only Conversion to private - Shared only Other cases of zapping will not be supported for KVM, for example APICv update or non-coherent DMA status update; for the latter, TDX will simply require that the CPU supports self-snoop and honor guest PAT unconditionally for shared memory.

2025-01-14KVM: Disallow all flags for KVM-internal memslotsSean Christopherson1-0/+3
Disallow all flags for KVM-internal memslots as all existing flags require some amount of userspace interaction to have any meaning. In addition to guarding against KVM goofs, explicitly disallowing dirty logging of KVM- internal memslots will (hopefully) allow exempting KVM-internal memslots from the KVM_MEM_MAX_NR_PAGES limit, which appears to exist purely because the dirty bitmap operations use a 32-bit index.

2024-12-23KVM: Add member to struct kvm_gfn_range to indicate private/sharedIsaku Yamahata2-0/+16
Add new members to strut kvm_gfn_range to indicate which mapping (private-vs-shared) to operate on: enum kvm_gfn_range_filter attr_filter. Update the core zapping operations to set them appropriately. TDX utilizes two GPA aliases for the same memslots, one for memory that is for private memory and one that is for shared. For private memory, KVM cannot always perform the same operations it does on memory for default VMs, such as zapping pages and having them be faulted back in, as this requires guest coordination. However, some operations such as guest driven conversion of memory between private and shared should zap private memory. Internally to the MMU, private and shared mappings are tracked on separate roots. Mapping and zapping operations will operate on the respective GFN alias for each root (private or shared). So zapping operations will by default zap both aliases. Add fields in struct kvm_gfn_range to allow callers to specify which aliases so they can only target the aliases appropriate for their specific operation. There was feedback that target aliases should be specified such that the default value (0) is to operate on both aliases. Several options were considered. Several variations of having separate bools defined such that the default behavior was to process both aliases. They either allowed nonsensical configurations, or were confusing for the caller. A simple enum was also explored and was close, but was hard to process in the caller. Instead, use an enum with the default value (0) reserved as a disallowed value. Catch ranges that didn't have the target aliases specified by looking for that specific value. Set target alias with enum appropriately for these MMU operations: - For KVM's mmu notifier callbacks, zap shared pages only because private pages won't have a userspace mapping - For setting memory attributes, kvm_arch_pre_set_memory_attributes() chooses the aliases based on the attribute. - For guest_memfd invalidations, zap private only.

2024-12-23KVM: guest_memfd: Remove RCU-protected attribute from slot->gmem.fileYan Zhao1-13/+21
Remove the RCU-protected attribute from slot->gmem.file. No need to use RCU primitives rcu_assign_pointer()/synchronize_rcu() to update this pointer. - slot->gmem.file is updated in 3 places: kvm_gmem_bind(), kvm_gmem_unbind(), kvm_gmem_release(). All of them are protected by kvm->slots_lock. - slot->gmem.file is read in 2 paths: (1) kvm_gmem_populate kvm_gmem_get_file __kvm_gmem_get_pfn (2) kvm_gmem_get_pfn kvm_gmem_get_file __kvm_gmem_get_pfn Path (1) kvm_gmem_populate() requires holding kvm->slots_lock, so slot->gmem.file is protected by the kvm->slots_lock in this path. Path (2) kvm_gmem_get_pfn() does not require holding kvm->slots_lock. However, it's also not guarded by rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock(). So synchronize_rcu() in kvm_gmem_unbind()/kvm_gmem_release() actually will not wait for the readers in kvm_gmem_get_pfn() due to lack of RCU read-side critical section. The path (2) kvm_gmem_get_pfn() is safe without RCU protection because: a) kvm_gmem_bind() is called on a new memslot, before the memslot is visible to kvm_gmem_get_pfn(). b) kvm->srcu ensures that kvm_gmem_unbind() and freeing of a memslot occur after the memslot is no longer visible to kvm_gmem_get_pfn(). c) get_file_active() ensures that kvm_gmem_get_pfn() will not access the stale file if kvm_gmem_release() sets it to NULL. This is because if kvm_gmem_release() occurs before kvm_gmem_get_pfn(), get_file_active() will return NULL; if get_file_active() does not return NULL, kvm_gmem_release() should not occur until after kvm_gmem_get_pfn() releases the file reference.
