<title>KVM: x86: Redefine 'longmode' as a flag for KVM_EXIT_HYPERCALL</title>

<content type='text'>
The 'longmode' field is a bit annoying as it blows an entire __u32 to
represent a boolean value. Since other architectures are looking to add
support for KVM_EXIT_HYPERCALL, now is probably a good time to clean it
up.

Redefine the field (and the remaining padding) as a set of flags.
Preserve the existing ABI by using bit 0 to indicate if the guest was in
long mode and requiring that the remaining 31 bits must be zero.

KVM x86 PMU changes for 6.3:

 - Add support for created masked events for the PMU filter to allow
   userspace to heavily restrict what events the guest can use without
   needing to create an absurd number of events

 - Clean up KVM's handling of "PMU MSRs to save", especially when vPMU
   support is disabled

 - Add PEBS support for Intel SPR

<title>KVM: x86/pmu: Introduce masked events to the pmu event filter</title>

<id>14329b825ffb7f2710c13fdcc37fc2e7c67b6781</id>
<content type='text'>
When building a list of filter events, it can sometimes be a challenge
to fit all the events needed to adequately restrict the guest into the
limited space available in the pmu event filter.  This stems from the
fact that the pmu event filter requires each event (i.e. event select +
unit mask) be listed, when the intention might be to restrict the
event select all together, regardless of it's unit mask.  Instead of
increasing the number of filter events in the pmu event filter, add a
new encoding that is able to do a more generalized match on the unit mask.

Introduce masked events as another encoding the pmu event filter
understands.  Masked events has the fields: mask, match, and exclude.
When filtering based on these events, the mask is applied to the guest's
unit mask to see if it matches the match value (i.e. umask &amp; mask ==
match).  The exclude bit can then be used to exclude events from that
match.  E.g. for a given event select, if it's easier to say which unit
mask values shouldn't be filtered, a masked event can be set up to match
all possible unit mask values, then another masked event can be set up to
match the unit mask values that shouldn't be filtered.

Userspace can query to see if this feature exists by looking for the
capability, KVM_CAP_PMU_EVENT_MASKED_EVENTS.

This feature is enabled by setting the flags field in the pmu event
filter to KVM_PMU_EVENT_FLAG_MASKED_EVENTS.

Events can be encoded by using KVM_PMU_ENCODE_MASKED_ENTRY().

It is an error to have a bit set outside the valid bits for a masked
event, and calls to KVM_SET_PMU_EVENT_FILTER will return -EINVAL in
such cases, including the high bits of the event select (35:32) if
called on Intel.

With these updates the filter matching code has been updated to match on
a common event.  Masked events were flexible enough to handle both event
types, so they were used as the common event.  This changes how guest
events get filtered because regardless of the type of event used in the
uAPI, they will be converted to masked events.  Because of this there
could be a slight performance hit because instead of matching the filter
event with a lookup on event select + unit mask, it does a lookup on event
select then walks the unit masks to find the match.  This shouldn't be a
big problem because I would expect the set of common event selects to be
small, and if they aren't the set can likely be reduced by using masked
events to generalize the unit mask.  Using one type of event when
filtering guest events allows for a common code path to be used.

Protect the kernel from using the flag KVM_MSR_FILTER_DEFAULT_ALLOW.
Its value is 0, and using it incorrectly could have unintended
consequences. E.g. prevent someone in the kernel from writing something
like this.

if (filter.flags &amp; KVM_MSR_FILTER_DEFAULT_ALLOW)
        &lt;allow the MSR&gt;

and getting confused when it doesn't work.

It would be more ideal to remove this flag altogether, but userspace
may already be using it, so protecting the kernel is all that can
reasonably be done at this point.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "Quite a large pull request due to a selftest API overhaul and some
  patches that had come in too late for 5.19.

  ARM:

   - Unwinder implementations for both nVHE modes (classic and
     protected), complete with an overflow stack

   - Rework of the sysreg access from userspace, with a complete rewrite
     of the vgic-v3 view to allign with the rest of the infrastructure

   - Disagregation of the vcpu flags in separate sets to better track
     their use model.

   - A fix for the GICv2-on-v3 selftest

   - A small set of cosmetic fixes

  RISC-V:

   - Track ISA extensions used by Guest using bitmap

   - Added system instruction emulation framework

   - Added CSR emulation framework

   - Added gfp_custom flag in struct kvm_mmu_memory_cache

   - Added G-stage ioremap() and iounmap() functions

   - Added support for Svpbmt inside Guest

  s390:

   - add an interface to provide a hypervisor dump for secure guests

   - improve selftests to use TAP interface

   - enable interpretive execution of zPCI instructions (for PCI
     passthrough)

   - First part of deferred teardown

   - CPU Topology

   - PV attestation

   - Minor fixes

  x86:

   - Permit guests to ignore single-bit ECC errors

   - Intel IPI virtualization

   - Allow getting/setting pending triple fault with
     KVM_GET/SET_VCPU_EVENTS

   - PEBS virtualization

   - Simplify PMU emulation by just using PERF_TYPE_RAW events

   - More accurate event reinjection on SVM (avoid retrying
     instructions)

   - Allow getting/setting the state of the speaker port data bit

   - Refuse starting the kvm-intel module if VM-Entry/VM-Exit controls
     are inconsistent

   - "Notify" VM exit (detect microarchitectural hangs) for Intel

   - Use try_cmpxchg64 instead of cmpxchg64

   - Ignore benign host accesses to PMU MSRs when PMU is disabled

   - Allow disabling KVM's "MONITOR/MWAIT are NOPs!" behavior

   - Allow NX huge page mitigation to be disabled on a per-vm basis

   - Port eager page splitting to shadow MMU as well

   - Enable CMCI capability by default and handle injected UCNA errors

   - Expose pid of vcpu threads in debugfs

   - x2AVIC support for AMD

   - cleanup PIO emulation

   - Fixes for LLDT/LTR emulation

   - Don't require refcounted "struct page" to create huge SPTEs

   - Miscellaneous cleanups:
      - MCE MSR emulation
      - Use separate namespaces for guest PTEs and shadow PTEs bitmasks
      - PIO emulation
      - Reorganize rmap API, mostly around rmap destruction
      - Do not workaround very old KVM bugs for L0 that runs with nesting enabled
      - new selftests API for CPUID

  Generic:

   - Fix races in gfn-&gt;pfn cache refresh; do not pin pages tracked by
     the cache

   - new selftests API using struct kvm_vcpu instead of a (vm, id)
     tuple"

<title>KVM: x86: Tweak name of MONITOR/MWAIT #UD quirk to make it #UD specific</title>

<id>43bb9e000ea4c62154c01844771fea25b8b83520</id>
<content type='text'>
Add a "UD" clause to KVM_X86_QUIRK_MWAIT_NEVER_FAULTS to make it clear
that the quirk only controls the #UD behavior of MONITOR/MWAIT.  KVM
doesn't currently enforce fault checks when MONITOR/MWAIT are supported,
but that could change in the future.  SVM also has a virtualization hole
in that it checks all faults before intercepts, and so "never faults" is
already a lie when running on SVM.
