KVM: MMU: record maximum physical address width in kvm_mmu_extended_role

2019-02-22T18:25:10+00:00

Previously, commit 7dcd57552008 ("x86/kvm/mmu: check if tdp/shadow
MMU reconfiguration is needed") offered some optimization to avoid
the unnecessary reconfiguration. Yet one scenario is broken - when
cpuid changes VM's maximum physical address width, reconfiguration
is needed to reset the reserved bits.  Also, the TDP may need to
reset its shadow_root_level when this value is changed.

To fix this, a new field, maxphyaddr, is introduced in the extended
role structure to keep track of the configured guest physical address
width.

kvm: x86: Return LA57 feature based on hardware capability

2019-02-22T18:25:05+00:00

Previously, 'commit 372fddf70904 ("x86/mm: Introduce the 'no5lvl' kernel
parameter")' cleared X86_FEATURE_LA57 in boot_cpu_data, if Linux chooses
to not run in 5-level paging mode. Yet boot_cpu_data is queried by
do_cpuid_ent() as the host capability later when creating vcpus, and Qemu
will not be able to detect this feature and create VMs with LA57 feature.

As discussed earlier, VMs can still benefit from extended linear address
width, e.g. to enhance features like ASLR. So we would like to fix this,
by return the true hardware capability when Qemu queries.

x86/kvm/mmu: fix switch between root and guest MMUs

2019-02-22T18:24:48+00:00

Commit 14c07ad89f4d ("x86/kvm/mmu: introduce guest_mmu") brought one subtle
change: previously, when switching back from L2 to L1, we were resetting
MMU hooks (like mmu->get_cr3()) in kvm_init_mmu() called from
nested_vmx_load_cr3() and now we do that in nested_ept_uninit_mmu_context()
when we re-target vcpu->arch.mmu pointer.
The change itself looks logical: if nested_ept_init_mmu_context() changes
something than nested_ept_uninit_mmu_context() restores it back. There is,
however, one thing: the following call chain:

 nested_vmx_load_cr3()
  kvm_mmu_new_cr3()
    __kvm_mmu_new_cr3()
      fast_cr3_switch()
        cached_root_available()

now happens with MMU hooks pointing to the new MMU (root MMU in our case)
while previously it was happening with the old one. cached_root_available()
tries to stash current root but it is incorrect to read current CR3 with
mmu->get_cr3(), we need to use old_mmu->get_cr3() which in case we're
switching from L2 to L1 is guest_mmu. (BTW, in shadow page tables case this
is a non-issue because we don't switch MMU).

While we could've tried to guess that we're switching between MMUs and call
the right ->get_cr3() from cached_root_available() this seems to be overly
complicated. Instead, just stash the corresponding CR3 when setting
root_hpa and make cached_root_available() use the stashed value.

KVM: x86: Recompute PID.ON when clearing PID.SN

2019-02-14T15:20:31+00:00

Some Posted-Interrupts from passthrough devices may be lost or
overwritten when the vCPU is in runnable state.

The SN (Suppress Notification) of PID (Posted Interrupt Descriptor) will
be set when the vCPU is preempted (vCPU in KVM_MP_STATE_RUNNABLE state but
not running on physical CPU). If a posted interrupt comes at this time,
the irq remapping facility will set the bit of PIR (Posted Interrupt
Requests) but not ON (Outstanding Notification).  Then, the interrupt
will not be seen by KVM, which always expects PID.ON=1 if PID.PIR=1
as documented in the Intel processor SDM but not in the VT-d specification.
To fix this, restore the invariant after PID.SN is cleared.

x86/kvm/nVMX: read from MSR_IA32_VMX_PROCBASED_CTLS2 only when it is available

SDM says MSR_IA32_VMX_PROCBASED_CTLS2 is only available "If
(CPUID.01H:ECX.[5] && IA32_VMX_PROCBASED_CTLS[63])". It was found that
some old cpus (namely "Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU 6600 @ 2.40GHz (family: 0x6,
model: 0xf, stepping: 0x6") don't have it. Add the missing check.

Bugzilla: 1671904

There are multiple code paths where an hrtimer may have been started to
emulate an L1 VMX preemption timer that can result in a call to free_nested

cancelled. Unconditionally cancel in free_nested to cover all cases.

KVM: x86: work around leak of uninitialized stack contents (CVE-2019-7222)

2019-02-07T18:02:56+00:00

Bugzilla: 1671930

Emulation of certain instructions (VMXON, VMCLEAR, VMPTRLD, VMWRITE with
memory operand, INVEPT, INVVPID) can incorrectly inject a page fault
when passed an operand that points to an MMIO address.  The page fault
will use uninitialized kernel stack memory as the CR2 and error code.

The right behavior would be to abort the VM with a KVM_EXIT_INTERNAL_ERROR
exit to userspace; however, it is not an easy fix, so for now just
ensure that the error code and CR2 are zero.

Embargoed until Feb 7th 2019.

cpu/hotplug: Fix "SMT disabled by BIOS" detection for KVM

2019-01-30T18:27:00+00:00

With the following commit:

  73d5e2b47264 ("cpu/hotplug: detect SMT disabled by BIOS")

... the hotplug code attempted to detect when SMT was disabled by BIOS,
in which case it reported SMT as permanently disabled.  However, that
code broke a virt hotplug scenario, where the guest is booted with only
primary CPU threads, and a sibling is brought online later.

The problem is that there doesn't seem to be a way to reliably
distinguish between the HW "SMT disabled by BIOS" case and the virt
"sibling not yet brought online" case.  So the above-mentioned commit
was a bit misguided, as it permanently disabled SMT for both cases,
preventing future virt sibling hotplugs.

Going back and reviewing the original problems which were attempted to
be solved by that commit, when SMT was disabled in BIOS:

  1) /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control showed "on" instead of
     "notsupported"; and

  2) vmx_vm_init() was incorrectly showing the L1TF_MSG_SMT warning.

I'd propose that we instead consider #1 above to not actually be a
problem.  Because, at least in the virt case, it's possible that SMT
wasn't disabled by BIOS and a sibling thread could be brought online
later.  So it makes sense to just always default the smt control to "on"
to allow for that possibility (assuming cpuid indicates that the CPU
supports SMT).

The real problem is #2, which has a simple fix: change vmx_vm_init() to
query the actual current SMT state -- i.e., whether any siblings are
currently online -- instead of looking at the SMT "control" sysfs value.

So fix it by:

  a) reverting the original "fix" and its followup fix:

     73d5e2b47264 ("cpu/hotplug: detect SMT disabled by BIOS")
     bc2d8d262cba ("cpu/hotplug: Fix SMT supported evaluation")

     and

  b) changing vmx_vm_init() to query the actual current SMT state --
     instead of the sysfs control value -- to determine whether the L1TF
     warning is needed.  This also requires the 'sched_smt_present'
     variable to exported, instead of 'cpu_smt_control'.
