Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini: "ARM: - Support for userspace handling of synchronous external aborts (SEAs), allowing the VMM to potentially handle the abort in a non-fatal manner - Large rework of the VGIC's list register handling with the goal of supporting more active/pending IRQs than available list registers in hardware. In addition, the VGIC now supports EOImode==1 style deactivations for IRQs which may occur on a separate vCPU than the one that acked the IRQ - Support for FEAT_XNX (user / privileged execute permissions) and FEAT_HAF (hardware update to the Access Flag) in the software page table walkers and shadow MMU - Allow page table destruction to reschedule, fixing long need_resched latencies observed when destroying a large VM - Minor fixes to KVM and selftests Loongarch: - Get VM PMU capability from HW GCFG register - Add AVEC basic support - Use 64-bit register definition for EIOINTC - Add KVM timer test cases for tools/selftests RISC/V: - SBI message passing (MPXY) support for KVM guest - Give a new, more specific error subcode for the case when in-kernel AIA virtualization fails to allocate IMSIC VS-file - Support KVM_DIRTY_LOG_INITIALLY_SET, enabling dirty log gradually in small chunks - Fix guest page fault within HLV* instructions - Flush VS-stage TLB after VCPU migration for Andes cores s390: - Always allocate ESCA (Extended System Control Area), instead of starting with the basic SCA and converting to ESCA with the addition of the 65th vCPU. The price is increased number of exits (and worse performance) on z10 and earlier processor; ESCA was introduced by z114/z196 in 2010 - VIRT_XFER_TO_GUEST_WORK support - Operation exception forwarding support - Cleanups x86: - Skip the costly "zap all SPTEs" on an MMIO generation wrap if MMIO SPTE caching is disabled, as there can't be any relevant SPTEs to zap - Relocate a misplaced export - Fix an async #PF bug where KVM would clear the completion queue when the guest transitioned in and out of paging mode, e.g. when handling an SMI and then returning to paged mode via RSM - Leave KVM's user-return notifier registered even when disabling virtualization, as long as kvm.ko is loaded. On reboot/shutdown, keeping the notifier registered is ok; the kernel does not use the MSRs and the callback will run cleanly and restore host MSRs if the CPU manages to return to userspace before the system goes down - Use the checked version of {get,put}_user() - Fix a long-lurking bug where KVM's lack of catch-up logic for periodic APIC timers can result in a hard lockup in the host - Revert the periodic kvmclock sync logic now that KVM doesn't use a clocksource that's subject to NTP corrections - Clean up KVM's handling of MMIO Stale Data and L1TF, and bury the latter behind CONFIG_CPU_MITIGATIONS - Context switch XCR0, XSS, and PKRU outside of the entry/exit fast path; the only reason they were handled in the fast path was to paper of a bug in the core #MC code, and that has long since been fixed - Add emulator support for AVX MOV instructions, to play nice with emulated devices whose guest drivers like to access PCI BARs with large multi-byte instructions x86 (AMD): - Fix a few missing "VMCB dirty" bugs - Fix the worst of KVM's lack of EFER.LMSLE emulation - Add AVIC support for addressing 4k vCPUs in x2AVIC mode - Fix incorrect handling of selective CR0 writes when checking intercepts during emulation of L2 instructions - Fix a currently-benign bug where KVM would clobber SPEC_CTRL[63:32] on VMRUN and #VMEXIT - Fix a bug where KVM corrupt the guest code stream when re-injecting a soft interrupt if the guest patched the underlying code after the VM-Exit, e.g. when Linux patches code with a temporary INT3 - Add KVM_X86_SNP_POLICY_BITS to advertise supported SNP policy bits to userspace, and extend KVM "support" to all policy bits that don't require any actual support from KVM x86 (Intel): - Use the root role from kvm_mmu_page to construct EPTPs instead of the current vCPU state, partly as worthwhile cleanup, but mostly to pave the way for tracking per-root TLB flushes, and elide EPT flushes on pCPU migration if the root is clean from a previous flush - Add a few missing nested consistency checks - Rip out support for doing "early" consistency checks via hardware as the functionality hasn't been used in years and is no longer useful in general; replace it with an off-by-default module param to WARN if hardware fails a check that KVM does not perform - Fix a currently-benign bug where KVM would drop the guest's SPEC_CTRL[63:32] on VM-Enter - Misc cleanups - Overhaul the TDX code to address systemic races where KVM (acting on behalf of userspace) could inadvertantly trigger lock contention in the TDX-Module; KVM was either working around these in weird, ugly ways, or was simply oblivious to them (though even Yan's devilish selftests could only break individual VMs, not the host kernel) - Fix a bug where KVM could corrupt a vCPU's cpu_list when freeing a TDX vCPU, if creating said vCPU failed partway through - Fix a few sparse warnings (bad annotation, 0 != NULL) - Use struct_size() to simplify copying TDX capabilities to userspace - Fix a bug where TDX would effectively corrupt user-return MSR values if the TDX Module rejects VP.ENTER and thus doesn't clobber host MSRs as expected Selftests: - Fix a math goof in mmu_stress_test when running on a single-CPU system/VM - Forcefully override ARCH from x86_64 to x86 to play nice with specifying ARCH=x86_64 on the command line - Extend a bunch of nested VMX to validate nested SVM as well - Add support for LA57 in the core VM_MODE_xxx macro, and add a test to verify KVM can save/restore nested VMX state when L1 is using 5-level paging, but L2 is not - Clean up the guest paging code in anticipation of sharing the core logic for nested EPT and nested NPT guest_memfd: - Add NUMA mempolicy support for guest_memfd, and clean up a variety of rough edges in guest_memfd along the way - Define a CLASS to automatically handle get+put when grabbing a guest_memfd from a memslot to make it harder to leak references - Enhance KVM selftests to make it easer to develop and debug selftests like those added for guest_memfd NUMA support, e.g. where test and/or KVM bugs often result in hard-to-debug SIGBUS errors - Misc cleanups Generic: - Use the recently-added WQ_PERCPU when creating the per-CPU workqueue for irqfd cleanup - Fix a goof in the dirty ring documentation - Fix choice of target for directed yield across different calls to kvm_vcpu_on_spin();

2025-11-18x86/cpufeatures: Enumerate the LASS feature bitsSohil Mehta
Linear Address Space Separation (LASS) is a security feature that mitigates a class of side-channel attacks relying on speculative access across the user/kernel boundary. Privilege mode based access protection already exists today with paging and features such as SMEP and SMAP. However, to enforce these protections, the processor must traverse the paging structures in memory. An attacker can use timing information resulting from this traversal to determine details about the paging structures, and to determine the layout of the kernel memory. LASS provides the same mode-based protections as paging but without traversing the paging structures. Because the protections are enforced prior to page-walks, an attacker will not be able to derive paging-based timing information from the various caching structures such as the TLBs, mid-level caches, page walker, data caches, etc. LASS enforcement relies on the kernel implementation to divide the 64-bit virtual address space into two halves: Addr[63]=0 -> User address space Addr[63]=1 -> Kernel address space Any data access or code execution across address spaces typically results in a #GP fault, with an #SS generated in some rare cases. The LASS enforcement for kernel data accesses is dependent on CR4.SMAP being set. The enforcement can be disabled by toggling the RFLAGS.AC bit similar to SMAP. Define the CPU feature bits to enumerate LASS. Also, disable the feature at compile time on 32-bit kernels. Use a direct dependency on X86_32 (instead of !X86_64) to make it easier to combine with similar 32-bit specific dependencies in the future. LASS mitigates a class of side-channel speculative attacks, such as Spectre LAM, described in the paper, "Leaky Address Masking: Exploiting Unmasked Spectre Gadgets with Noncanonical Address Translation". Add the "lass" flag to /proc/cpuinfo to indicate that the feature is supported by hardware and enabled by the kernel. This allows userspace to determine if the system is secure against such attacks.

2025-10-20KVM: VMX: Inject #UD if guest tries to execute SEAMCALL or TDCALLSean Christopherson
Add VMX exit handlers for SEAMCALL and TDCALL to inject a #UD if a non-TD guest attempts to execute SEAMCALL or TDCALL. Neither SEAMCALL nor TDCALL is gated by any software enablement other than VMXON, and so will generate a VM-Exit instead of e.g. a native #UD when executed from the guest kernel. Note! No unprivileged DoS of the L1 kernel is possible as TDCALL and SEAMCALL #GP at CPL > 0, and the CPL check is performed prior to the VMX non-root (VM-Exit) check, i.e. userspace can't crash the VM. And for a nested guest, KVM forwards unknown exits to L1, i.e. an L2 kernel can crash itself, but not L1. Note #2! The Intel® Trust Domain CPU Architectural Extensions spec's pseudocode shows the CPL > 0 check for SEAMCALL coming _after_ the VM-Exit, but that appears to be a documentation bug (likely because the CPL > 0 check was incorrectly bundled with other lower-priority #GP checks). Testing on SPR and EMR shows that the CPL > 0 check is performed before the VMX non-root check, i.e. SEAMCALL #GPs when executed in usermode. Note #3! The aforementioned Trust Domain spec uses confusing pseudocode that says that SEAMCALL will #UD if executed "inSEAM", but "inSEAM" specifically means in SEAM Root Mode, i.e. in the TDX-Module. The long- form description explicitly states that SEAMCALL generates an exit when executed in "SEAM VMX non-root operation". But that's a moot point as the TDX-Module injects #UD if the guest attempts to execute SEAMCALL, as documented in the "Unconditionally Blocked Instructions" section of the TDX-Module base specification.

2025-09-23KVM: x86: Enable guest SSP read/write interface with new uAPIsYang Weijiang
Add a KVM-defined ONE_REG register, KVM_REG_GUEST_SSP, to let userspace save and restore the guest's Shadow Stack Pointer (SSP). On both Intel and AMD, SSP is a hardware register that can only be accessed by software via dedicated ISA (e.g. RDSSP) or via VMCS/VMCB fields (used by hardware to context switch SSP at entry/exit). As a result, SSP doesn't fit in any of KVM's existing interfaces for saving/restoring state. Internally, treat SSP as a fake/synthetic MSR, as the semantics of writes to SSP follow that of several other Shadow Stack MSRs, e.g. the PLx_SSP MSRs. Use a translation layer to hide the KVM-internal MSR index so that the arbitrary index doesn't become ABI, e.g. so that KVM can rework its implementation as needed, so long as the ONE_REG ABI is maintained. Explicitly reject accesses to SSP if the vCPU doesn't have Shadow Stack support to avoid running afoul of ignore_msrs, which unfortunately applies to host-initiated accesses (which is a discussion for another day). I.e. ensure consistent behavior for KVM-defined registers irrespective of ignore_msrs.

Currently, two types of registers are supported: KVM_X86_REG_TYPE_MSR and KVM_X86_REG_TYPE_KVM. All MSRs are in the former type; the latter type is added for registers that lack existing KVM uAPIs to access them. The "KVM" in the name is intended to be vague to give KVM flexibility to include other potential registers. More precise names like "SYNTHETIC" and "SYNTHETIC_MSR" were considered, but were deemed too confusing (e.g. can be conflated with synthetic guest-visible MSRs) and may put KVM into a corner (e.g. if KVM wants to change how a KVM-defined register is modeled internally). Enumerate only KVM-defined registers in KVM_GET_REG_LIST to avoid duplicating KVM_GET_MSR_INDEX_LIST, and so that KVM can return _only_ registers that are fully supported (KVM_GET_REG_LIST is vCPU-scoped, i.e. can be precise, whereas KVM_GET_MSR_INDEX_LIST is system-scoped).

2025-08-31x86/apic: Initialize Secure AVIC APIC backing pageNeeraj Upadhyay
With Secure AVIC, the APIC backing page is owned and managed by the guest. Allocate and initialize APIC backing page for all guest CPUs. The NPT entry for a vCPU's APIC backing page must always be present when the vCPU is running in order for Secure AVIC to function. A VMEXIT_BUSY is returned on VMRUN and the vCPU cannot be resumed otherwise. To handle this, notify GPA of the vCPU's APIC backing page to the hypervisor by using the SVM_VMGEXIT_SECURE_AVIC GHCB protocol event. Before executing VMRUN, the hypervisor makes use of this information to make sure the APIC backing page is mapped in the NPT.

2025-08-19KVM: x86: Add support for RDMSR/WRMSRNS w/ immediate on IntelXin Li
Add support for the immediate forms of RDMSR and WRMSRNS (currently Intel-only). The immediate variants are only valid in 64-bit mode, and use a single general purpose register for the data (the register is also encoded in the instruction, i.e. not implicit like regular RDMSR/WRMSR). The immediate variants are primarily motivated by performance, not code size: by having the MSR index in an immediate, it is available *much* earlier in the CPU pipeline, which allows hardware much more leeway about how a particular MSR is handled. Intel VMX support for the immediate forms of MSR accesses communicates exit information to the host as follows: 1) The immediate form of RDMSR uses VM-Exit Reason 84. 2) The immediate form of WRMSRNS uses VM-Exit Reason 85. 3) For both VM-Exit reasons 84 and 85, the Exit Qualification field is set to the MSR index that triggered the VM-Exit. 4) Bits 3 ~ 6 of the VM-Exit Instruction Information field are set to the register encoding used by the immediate form of the instruction, i.e. the destination register for RDMSR, and the source for WRMSRNS. 5) The VM-Exit Instruction Length field records the size of the immediate form of the MSR instruction. To deal with userspace RDMSR exits, stash the destination register in a new kvm_vcpu_arch field, similar to cui_linear_rip, pio, etc. Alternatively, the register could be saved in kvm_run.msr or re-retrieved from the VMCS, but the former would require sanitizing the value to ensure userspace doesn't clobber the value to an out-of-bounds index, and the latter would require a new one-off kvm_x86_ops hook. Don't bother adding support for the instructions in KVM's emulator, as the only way for RDMSR/WRMSR to be encountered is if KVM is emulating large swaths of code due to invalid guest state, and a vCPU cannot have invalid guest state while in 64-bit mode.

2025-06-24x86/traps: Initialize DR6 by writing its architectural reset valueXin Li (Intel)
Initialize DR6 by writing its architectural reset value to avoid incorrectly zeroing DR6 to clear DR6.BLD at boot time, which leads to a false bus lock detected warning. The Intel SDM says: 1) Certain debug exceptions may clear bits 0-3 of DR6. 2) BLD induced #DB clears DR6.BLD and any other debug exception doesn't modify DR6.BLD. 3) RTM induced #DB clears DR6.RTM and any other debug exception sets DR6.RTM. To avoid confusion in identifying debug exceptions, debug handlers should set DR6.BLD and DR6.RTM, and clear other DR6 bits before returning. The DR6 architectural reset value 0xFFFF0FF0, already defined as macro DR6_RESERVED, satisfies these requirements, so just use it to reinitialize DR6 whenever needed. Since clear_all_debug_regs() no longer zeros all debug registers, rename it to initialize_debug_regs() to better reflect its current behavior. Since debug_read_clear_dr6() no longer clears DR6, rename it to debug_read_reset_dr6() to better reflect its current behavior.

In a simple test case, the reduction of a guest VM's memory consumption was dramatic. - "Minor cleanups and improvements to swap freeing code" from Kemeng Shi provides some code cleaups and a small efficiency improvement to this part of our swap handling code. - "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API" from Dmitry Levin adds the ability for a ptracer to modify syscalls arguments. At this time we can alter only "system call information that are used by strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number, syscall arguments, and syscall return value. This series should have been incorporated into mm.git's "non-MM" branch, but I goofed. - "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report guard regions" from Andrei Vagin extends the info returned by the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl against /proc/pid/pagemap.

No runtime effect is expected because validate_page_before_insert() happens to fix up this error. - "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode() rewrite" from David Hildenbrand basically brings uprobe text poking into the current decade. Remove a bunch of hand-rolled implementation in favor of using more current facilities. - "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64" from Anshuman Khandual provides enhancements and generalizations to the pte dumping code. This might be needed when 128-bit Page Table Descriptors are enabled for ARM. - "Always call constructor for kernel page tables" from Kevin Brodsky ensures that the ctor/dtor is always called for kernel pgtables, as it already is for user pgtables. This permits the addition of more functionality such as "insert hooks to protect page tables". This change does result in various architectures performing unnecesary work, but this is fixed up where it is anticipated to occur. - "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and mmap" from Alice Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM structures. - "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges" from Lorenzo Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities which we've been missing for 15 years. - "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED and MADV_FREE" from SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB flushing.

2025-05-16KVM: SVM: Add architectural definitions/assets for Bus Lock ThresholdNikunj A Dadhania
Virtual machines can exploit bus locks to degrade the performance of the system. Bus locks can be caused by Non-WB(Write back) and misaligned locked RMW (Read-modify-Write) instructions and require systemwide synchronization among all processors which can result into significant performance penalties. To address this issue, the Bus Lock Threshold feature is introduced to provide ability to hypervisor to restrict guests' capability of initiating mulitple buslocks, thereby preventing system slowdowns. Support for the buslock threshold is indicated via CPUID function 0x8000000A_EDX[29]. On the processors that support the Bus Lock Threshold feature, the VMCB provides a Bus Lock Threshold enable bit and an unsigned 16-bit Bus Lock threshold count. VMCB intercept bit VMCB Offset Bits Function 14h 5 Intercept bus lock operations Bus lock threshold count VMCB Offset Bits Function 120h 15:0 Bus lock counter When a VMRUN instruction is executed, the bus lock threshold count is loaded into an internal count register. Before the processor executes a bus lock in the guest, it checks the value of this register: - If the value is greater than '0', the processor successfully executes the bus lock and decrements the count. - If the value is '0', the bus lock is not executed, and a #VMEXIT to the VMM is taken. The bus lock threshold #VMEXIT is reported to the VMM with the VMEXIT code A5h, SVM_EXIT_BUS_LOCK.

2025-05-12x86/kexec: add support for passing kexec handover (KHO) dataAlexander Graf
kexec handover (KHO) creates a metadata that the kernels pass between each other during kexec. This metadata is stored in memory and kexec image contains a (physical) pointer to that memory. In addition, KHO keeps "scratch regions" available for kexec: physically contiguous memory regions that are guaranteed to not have any memory that KHO would preserve. The new kernel bootstraps itself using the scratch regions and sets all handed over memory as in use. When subsystems that support KHO initialize, they introspect the KHO metadata, restore preserved memory regions, and retrieve their state stored in the preserved memory. Enlighten x86 kexec-file and boot path about the KHO metadata and make sure it gets passed along to the next kernel.

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.

2025-03-14KVM: x86: Introduce Intel specific quirk KVM_X86_QUIRK_IGNORE_GUEST_PATYan Zhao
Introduce an Intel specific quirk KVM_X86_QUIRK_IGNORE_GUEST_PAT to have KVM ignore guest PAT when this quirk is enabled. On AMD platforms, KVM always honors guest PAT. On Intel however there are two issues. First, KVM *cannot* honor guest PAT if CPU feature self-snoop is not supported. Second, UC access on certain Intel platforms can be very slow[1] and honoring guest PAT on those platforms may break some old guests that accidentally specify video RAM as UC. Those old guests may never expect the slowness since KVM always forces WB previously. See [2]. So, introduce a quirk that KVM can enable by default on all Intel platforms to avoid breaking old unmodifiable guests. Newer userspace can disable this quirk if it wishes KVM to honor guest PAT; disabling the quirk will fail if self-snoop is not supported, i.e. if KVM cannot obey the wish. The quirk is a no-op on AMD and also if any assigned devices have non-coherent DMA. This is not an issue, as KVM_X86_QUIRK_CD_NW_CLEARED is another example of a quirk that is sometimes automatically disabled.

2025-03-14KVM: TDX: Handle EXIT_REASON_OTHER_SMIIsaku Yamahata
Handle VM exit caused by "other SMI" for TDX, by returning back to userspace for Machine Check System Management Interrupt (MSMI) case or ignoring it and resume vCPU for non-MSMI case. For VMX, SMM transition can happen in both VMX non-root mode and VMX root mode. Unlike VMX, in SEAM root mode (TDX module), all interrupts are blocked. If an SMI occurs in SEAM non-root mode (TD guest), the SMI causes VM exit to TDX module, then SEAMRET to KVM. Once it exits to KVM, SMI is delivered and handled by kernel handler right away. An SMI can be "I/O SMI" or "other SMI". For TDX, there will be no I/O SMI because I/O instructions inside TDX guest trigger #VE and TDX guest needs to use TDVMCALL to request VMM to do I/O emulation. For "other SMI", there are two cases: - MSMI case. When BIOS eMCA MCE-SMI morphing is enabled, the #MC occurs in TDX guest will be delivered as an MSMI. It causes an EXIT_REASON_OTHER_SMI VM exit with MSMI (bit 0) set in the exit qualification. On VM exit, TDX module checks whether the "other SMI" is caused by an MSMI or not. If so, TDX module marks TD as fatal, preventing further TD entries, and then completes the TD exit flow to KVM with the TDH.VP.ENTER outputs indicating TDX_NON_RECOVERABLE_TD. After TD exit, the MSMI is delivered and eventually handled by the kernel machine check handler (7911f145de5f x86/mce: Implement recovery for errors in TDX/SEAM non-root mode), i.e., the memory page is marked as poisoned and it won't be freed to the free list when the TDX guest is terminated. Since the TDX guest is dead, follow other non-recoverable cases, exit to userspace. - For non-MSMI case, KVM doesn't need to do anything, just continue TDX vCPU execution.

2025-03-14KVM: TDX: Add a place holder for handler of TDX hypercalls (TDG.VP.VMCALL)Isaku Yamahata
Add a place holder and related helper functions for preparation of TDG.VP.VMCALL handling. The TDX module specification defines TDG.VP.VMCALL API (TDVMCALL for short) for the guest TD to call hypercall to VMM. When the guest TD issues a TDVMCALL, the guest TD exits to VMM with a new exit reason. The arguments from the guest TD and returned values from the VMM are passed in the guest registers. The guest RCX register indicates which registers are used. Define helper functions to access those registers. A new VMX exit reason TDCALL is added to indicate the exit is due to TDVMCALL from the guest TD. Define the TDCALL exit reason and add a place holder to handle such exit. Some leafs of TDCALL will be morphed to another VMX exit reason instead of EXIT_REASON_TDCALL, add a helper tdcall_to_vmx_exit_reason() as a place holder to do the conversion.

2025-03-14KVM: TDX: Add an ioctl to create initial guest memoryIsaku Yamahata
Add a new ioctl for the user space VMM to initialize guest memory with the specified memory contents. Because TDX protects the guest's memory, the creation of the initial guest memory requires a dedicated TDX module API, TDH.MEM.PAGE.ADD(), instead of directly copying the memory contents into the guest's memory in the case of the default VM type. Define a new subcommand, KVM_TDX_INIT_MEM_REGION, of vCPU-scoped KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_OP. Check if the GFN is already pre-allocated, assign the guest page in Secure-EPT, copy the initial memory contents into the guest memory, and encrypt the guest memory. Optionally, extend the memory measurement of the TDX guest. The ioctl uses the vCPU file descriptor because of the TDX module's requirement that the memory is added to the S-EPT (via TDH.MEM.SEPT.ADD) prior to initialization (TDH.MEM.PAGE.ADD). Accessing the MMU in turn requires a vCPU file descriptor, just like for KVM_PRE_FAULT_MEMORY. In fact, the post-populate callback is able to reuse the same logic used by KVM_PRE_FAULT_MEMORY, so that userspace can do everything with a single ioctl. Note that this is the only way to invoke TDH.MEM.SEPT.ADD before the TD in finalized, as userspace cannot use KVM_PRE_FAULT_MEMORY at that point. This ensures that there cannot be pages in the S-EPT awaiting TDH.MEM.PAGE.ADD, which would be treated incorrectly as spurious by tdp_mmu_map_handle_target_level() (KVM would see the SPTE as PRESENT, but the corresponding S-EPT entry will be !PRESENT).

This "per-VM" TDX initialization does the global configurations/features that the TDX guest can support, such as guest's CPUIDs (emulated by the TDX module), the maximum number of vcpus etc. Because there is no room in KVM_CREATE_VM to pass all the required parameters, introduce a new ioctl KVM_TDX_INIT_VM and mark the VM as TD_STATE_UNINITIALIZED until it is invoked.

2025-02-25KVM: SVM: Add Idle HLT intercept supportManali Shukla
Add support for "Idle HLT" interception on AMD CPUs, and enable Idle HLT interception instead of "normal" HLT interception for all VMs for which HLT-exiting is enabled. Idle HLT provides a mild performance boost for all VM types, by avoiding a VM-Exit in the scenario where KVM would immediately "wake" and resume the vCPU. Idle HLT makes HLT-exiting conditional on the vCPU not having a valid, unmasked interrupt. Specifically, a VM-Exit occurs on execution of HLT if and only if there are no pending V_IRQ or V_NMI events. Note, Idle is a replacement for full HLT interception, i.e. enabling HLT interception would result in all HLT instructions causing unconditional VM-Exits. Per the APM: When both HLT and Idle HLT intercepts are active at the same time, the HLT intercept takes priority. This intercept occurs only if a virtual interrupt is not pending (V_INTR or V_NMI). For KVM's use of V_IRQ (also called V_INTR in the APM) to detect interrupt windows, the net effect of enabling Idle HLT is that, if a virtual interupt is pending and unmasked at the time of HLT, the vCPU will take a V_IRQ intercept instead of a HLT intercept. When AVIC is enabled, Idle HLT works as intended: the vCPU continues unimpeded and services the pending virtual interrupt. Note, the APM's description of V_IRQ interaction with AVIC is quite confusing, and requires piecing together implied behavior. Per the APM, when AVIC is enabled, V_IRQ *from the VMCB* is ignored: When AVIC mode is enabled for a virtual processor, the V_IRQ, V_INTR_PRIO, V_INTR_VECTOR, and V_IGN_TPR fields in the VMCB are ignored. Which seems to contradict the behavior of Idle HLT: This intercept occurs only if a virtual interrupt is not pending (V_INTR or V_NMI). What's not explicitly stated is that hardware's internal copy of V_IRQ (and related fields) *are* still active, i.e. are presumably used to cache information from the virtual APIC. Handle Idle HLT exits as if they were normal HLT exits, e.g. don't try to optimize the handling under the assumption that there isn't a pending IRQ. Irrespective of AVIC, Idle HLT is inherently racy with respect to the vIRR, as KVM can set vIRR bits asychronously. No changes are required to support KVM's use Idle HLT while running L2. In fact, supporting Idle HLT is actually a bug fix to some extent. If L1 wants to intercept HLT, recalc_intercepts() will enable HLT interception in vmcb02 and forward the intercept to L1 as normal. But if L1 does not want to intercept HLT, then KVM will run L2 with Idle HLT enabled and HLT interception disabled. If a V_IRQ or V_NMI for L2 becomes pending and L2 executes HLT, then use of Idle HLT will do the right thing, i.e. not #VMEXIT and instead deliver the virtual event. KVM currently doesn't handle this scenario correctly, e.g. doesn't check V_IRQ or V_NMI in vmcs02 as part of kvm_vcpu_has_events(). Do not expose Idle HLT to L1 at this time, as supporting nested Idle HLT is more complex than just enumerating the feature, e.g. requires KVM to handle the aforementioned scenarios of V_IRQ and V_NMI at the time of exit.

2025-02-24KVM: x86/xen: Restrict hypercall MSR to unofficial synthetic rangeSean Christopherson
Reject userspace attempts to set the Xen hypercall page MSR to an index outside of the "standard" virtualization range [0x40000000, 0x4fffffff], as KVM is not equipped to handle collisions with real MSRs, e.g. KVM doesn't update MSR interception, conflicts with VMCS/VMCB fields, special case writes in KVM, etc. While the MSR index isn't strictly ABI, i.e. can theoretically float to any value, in practice no known VMM sets the MSR index to anything other than 0x40000000 or 0x40000200.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini: "Loongarch: - Clear LLBCTL if secondary mmu mapping changes - Add hypercall service support for usermode VMM x86: - Add a comment to kvm_mmu_do_page_fault() to explain why KVM performs a direct call to kvm_tdp_page_fault() when RETPOLINE is enabled - Ensure that all SEV code is compiled out when disabled in Kconfig, even if building with less brilliant compilers - Remove a redundant TLB flush on AMD processors when guest CR4.PGE changes - Use str_enabled_disabled() to replace open coded strings - Drop kvm_x86_ops.hwapic_irr_update() as KVM updates hardware's APICv cache prior to every VM-Enter - Overhaul KVM's CPUID feature infrastructure to track all vCPU capabilities instead of just those where KVM needs to manage state and/or explicitly enable the feature in hardware. Along the way, refactor the code to make it easier to add features, and to make it more self-documenting how KVM is handling each feature - Rework KVM's handling of VM-Exits during event vectoring; this plugs holes where KVM unintentionally puts the vCPU into infinite loops in some scenarios (e.g. if emulation is triggered by the exit), and brings parity between VMX and SVM - Add pending request and interrupt injection information to the kvm_exit and kvm_entry tracepoints respectively - Fix a relatively benign flaw where KVM would end up redoing RDPKRU when loading guest/host PKRU, due to a refactoring of the kernel helpers that didn't account for KVM's pre-checking of the need to do WRPKRU - Make the completion of hypercalls go through the complete_hypercall function pointer argument, no matter if the hypercall exits to userspace or not. Previously, the code assumed that KVM_HC_MAP_GPA_RANGE specifically went to userspace, and all the others did not; the new code need not special case KVM_HC_MAP_GPA_RANGE and in fact does not care at all whether there was an exit to userspace or not - As part of enabling TDX virtual machines, support support separation of private/shared EPT into separate roots. When TDX will be enabled, operations on private pages will need to go through the privileged TDX Module via SEAMCALLs; as a result, they are limited and relatively slow compared to reading a PTE. The patches included in 6.14 allow KVM to keep a mirror of the private EPT in host memory, and define entries in kvm_x86_ops to operate on external page tables such as the TDX private EPT - The recently introduced conversion of the NX-page reclamation kthread to vhost_task moved the task under the main process. The task is created as soon as KVM_CREATE_VM was invoked and this, of course, broke userspace that didn't expect to see any child task of the VM process until it started creating its own userspace threads. In particular crosvm refuses to fork() if procfs shows any child task, so unbreak it by creating the task lazily. This is arguably a userspace bug, as there can be other kinds of legitimate worker tasks and they wouldn't impede fork(); but it's not like userspace has a way to distinguish kernel worker tasks right now. Should they show as "Kthread: 1" in proc/.../status? x86 - Intel: - Fix a bug where KVM updates hardware's APICv cache of the highest ISR bit while L2 is active, while ultimately results in a hardware-accelerated L1 EOI effectively being lost - Honor event priority when emulating Posted Interrupt delivery during nested VM-Enter by queueing KVM_REQ_EVENT instead of immediately handling the interrupt - Rework KVM's processing of the Page-Modification Logging buffer to reap entries in the same order they were created, i.e. to mark gfns dirty in the same order that hardware marked the page/PTE dirty - Misc cleanups Generic: - Cleanup and harden kvm_set_memory_region(); add proper lockdep assertions when setting memory regions and add a dedicated API for setting KVM-internal memory regions. The API can then explicitly disallow all flags for KVM-internal memory regions - Explicitly verify the target vCPU is online in kvm_get_vcpu() to fix a bug where KVM would return a pointer to a vCPU prior to it being fully online, and give kvm_for_each_vcpu() similar treatment to fix a similar flaw - Wait for a vCPU to come online prior to executing a vCPU ioctl, to fix a bug where userspace could coerce KVM into handling the ioctl on a vCPU that isn't yet onlined - Gracefully handle xarray insertion failures; even though such failures are impossible in practice after xa_reserve(), reserving an entry is always followed by xa_store() which does not know (or differentiate) whether there was an xa_reserve() before or not RISC-V: - Zabha, Svvptc, and Ziccrse extension support for guests. None of them require anything in KVM except for detecting them and marking them as supported; Zabha adds byte and halfword atomic operations, while the others are markers for specific operation of the TLB and of LL/SC instructions respectively - Virtualize SBI system suspend extension for Guest/VM - Support firmware counters which can be used by the guests to collect statistics about traps that occur in the host Selftests: - Rework vcpu_get_reg() to return a value instead of using an out-param, and update all affected arch code accordingly - Convert the max_guest_memory_test into a more generic mmu_stress_test. The basic gist of the "conversion" is to have the test do mprotect() on guest memory while vCPUs are accessing said memory, e.g. to verify KVM and mmu_notifiers are working as intended - Play nice with treewrite builds of unsupported architectures, e.g. arm (32-bit), as KVM selftests' Makefile doesn't do anything to ensure the target architecture is actually one KVM selftests supports - Use the kernel's $(ARCH) definition instead of the target triple for arch specific directories, e.g. arm64 instead of aarch64, mainly so as not to be different from the rest of the kernel - Ensure that format strings for logging statements are checked by the compiler even when the logging statement itself is disabled - Attempt to whack the last LLC references/misses mole in the Intel PMU counters test by adding a data load and doing CLFLUSH{OPT} on the data instead of the code being executed. It seems that modern Intel CPUs have learned new code prefetching tricks that bypass the PMU counters - Fix a flaw in the Intel PMU counters test where it asserts that events are counting correctly without actually knowing what the events count given the underlying hardware; this can happen if Intel reuses a formerly microarchitecture-specific event encoding as an architectural event, as was the case for Top-Down Slots" * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm: (151 commits) kvm: defer huge page recovery vhost task to later KVM: x86/mmu: Return RET_PF* instead of 1 in kvm_mmu_page_fault() KVM: Disallow all flags for KVM-internal memslots KVM: x86: Drop double-underscores from __kvm_set_memory_region() KVM: Add a dedicated API for setting KVM-internal memslots KVM: Assert slots_lock is held when setting memory regions KVM: Open code kvm_set_memory_region() into its sole caller (ioctl() API) LoongArch: KVM: Add hypercall service support for usermode VMM LoongArch: KVM: Clear LLBCTL if secondary mmu mapping is changed KVM: SVM: Use str_enabled_disabled() helper in svm_hardware_setup() KVM: VMX: read the PML log in the same order as it was written KVM: VMX: refactor PML terminology KVM: VMX: Fix comment of handle_vmx_instruction() KVM: VMX: Reinstate __exit attribute for vmx_exit() KVM: SVM: Use str_enabled_disabled() helper in sev_hardware_setup() KVM: x86: Avoid double RDPKRU when loading host/guest PKRU KVM: x86: Use LVT_TIMER instead of an open coded literal RISC-V: KVM: Add new exit statstics for redirected traps RISC-V: KVM: Update firmware counters for various events RISC-V: KVM: Redirect instruction access fault trap to guest ...

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini: "The biggest change here is eliminating the awful idea that KVM had of essentially guessing which pfns are refcounted pages. The reason to do so was that KVM needs to map both non-refcounted pages (for example BARs of VFIO devices) and VM_PFNMAP/VM_MIXMEDMAP VMAs that contain refcounted pages. However, the result was security issues in the past, and more recently the inability to map VM_IO and VM_PFNMAP memory that _is_ backed by struct page but is not refcounted. In particular this broke virtio-gpu blob resources (which directly map host graphics buffers into the guest as "vram" for the virtio-gpu device) with the amdgpu driver, because amdgpu allocates non-compound higher order pages and the tail pages could not be mapped into KVM. This requires adjusting all uses of struct page in the per-architecture code, to always work on the pfn whenever possible. The large series that did this, from David Stevens and Sean Christopherson, also cleaned up substantially the set of functions that provided arch code with the pfn for a host virtual addresses. The previous maze of twisty little passages, all different, is replaced by five functions (__gfn_to_page, __kvm_faultin_pfn, the non-__ versions of these two, and kvm_prefetch_pages) saving almost 200 lines of code. ARM: - Support for stage-1 permission indirection (FEAT_S1PIE) and permission overlays (FEAT_S1POE), including nested virt + the emulated page table walker - Introduce PSCI SYSTEM_OFF2 support to KVM + client driver. This call was introduced in PSCIv1.3 as a mechanism to request hibernation, similar to the S4 state in ACPI - Explicitly trap + hide FEAT_MPAM (QoS controls) from KVM guests. As part of it, introduce trivial initialization of the host's MPAM context so KVM can use the corresponding traps - PMU support under nested virtualization, honoring the guest hypervisor's trap configuration and event filtering when running a nested guest - Fixes to vgic ITS serialization where stale device/interrupt table entries are not zeroed when the mapping is invalidated by the VM - Avoid emulated MMIO completion if userspace has requested synchronous external abort injection - Various fixes and cleanups affecting pKVM, vCPU initialization, and selftests LoongArch: - Add iocsr and mmio bus simulation in kernel. - Add in-kernel interrupt controller emulation. - Add support for virtualization extensions to the eiointc irqchip. PPC: - Drop lingering and utterly obsolete references to PPC970 KVM, which was removed 10 years ago. - Fix incorrect documentation references to non-existing ioctls RISC-V: - Accelerate KVM RISC-V when running as a guest - Perf support to collect KVM guest statistics from host side s390: - New selftests: more ucontrol selftests and CPU model sanity checks - Support for the gen17 CPU model - List registers supported by KVM_GET/SET_ONE_REG in the documentation x86: - Cleanup KVM's handling of Accessed and Dirty bits to dedup code, improve documentation, harden against unexpected changes. Even if the hardware A/D tracking is disabled, it is possible to use the hardware-defined A/D bits to track if a PFN is Accessed and/or Dirty, and that removes a lot of special cases. - Elide TLB flushes when aging secondary PTEs, as has been done in x86's primary MMU for over 10 years. - Recover huge pages in-place in the TDP MMU when dirty page logging is toggled off, instead of zapping them and waiting until the page is re-accessed to create a huge mapping. This reduces vCPU jitter. - Batch TLB flushes when dirty page logging is toggled off. This reduces the time it takes to disable dirty logging by ~3x. - Remove the shrinker that was (poorly) attempting to reclaim shadow page tables in low-memory situations. - Clean up and optimize KVM's handling of writes to MSR_IA32_APICBASE. - Advertise CPUIDs for new instructions in Clearwater Forest - Quirk KVM's misguided behavior of initialized certain feature MSRs to their maximum supported feature set, which can result in KVM creating invalid vCPU state. E.g. initializing PERF_CAPABILITIES to a non-zero value results in the vCPU having invalid state if userspace hides PDCM from the guest, which in turn can lead to save/restore failures. - Fix KVM's handling of non-canonical checks for vCPUs that support LA57 to better follow the "architecture", in quotes because the actual behavior is poorly documented. E.g. most MSR writes and descriptor table loads ignore CR4.LA57 and operate purely on whether the CPU supports LA57. - Bypass the register cache when querying CPL from kvm_sched_out(), as filling the cache from IRQ context is generally unsafe; harden the cache accessors to try to prevent similar issues from occuring in the future. The issue that triggered this change was already fixed in 6.12, but was still kinda latent. - Advertise AMD_IBPB_RET to userspace, and fix a related bug where KVM over-advertises SPEC_CTRL when trying to support cross-vendor VMs. - Minor cleanups - Switch hugepage recovery thread to use vhost_task. These kthreads can consume significant amounts of CPU time on behalf of a VM or in response to how the VM behaves (for example how it accesses its memory); therefore KVM tried to place the thread in the VM's cgroups and charge the CPU time consumed by that work to the VM's container. However the kthreads did not process SIGSTOP/SIGCONT, and therefore cgroups which had KVM instances inside could not complete freezing. Fix this by replacing the kthread with a PF_USER_WORKER thread, via the vhost_task abstraction. Another 100+ lines removed, with generally better behavior too like having these threads properly parented in the process tree. - Revert a workaround for an old CPU erratum (Nehalem/Westmere) that didn't really work; there was really nothing to work around anyway: the broken patch was meant to fix nested virtualization, but the PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL MSR is virtualized and therefore unaffected by the erratum. - Fix 6.12 regression where CONFIG_KVM will be built as a module even if asked to be builtin, as long as neither KVM_INTEL nor KVM_AMD is 'y'. x86 selftests: - x86 selftests can now use AVX. Documentation: - Use rST internal links - Reorganize the introduction to the API document Generic: - Protect vcpu->pid accesses outside of vcpu->mutex with a rwlock instead of RCU, so that running a vCPU on a different task doesn't encounter long due to having to wait for all CPUs become quiescent. In general both reads and writes are rare, but userspace that supports confidential computing is introducing the use of "helper" vCPUs that may jump from one host processor to another.

2024-11-01KVM: x86: Quirk initialization of feature MSRs to KVM's max configurationSean Christopherson
Add a quirk to control KVM's misguided initialization of select feature MSRs to KVM's max configuration, as enabling features by default violates KVM's approach of letting userspace own the vCPU model, and is actively problematic for MSRs that are conditionally supported, as the vCPU will end up with an MSR value that userspace can't restore. E.g. if the vCPU is configured with PDCM=0, userspace will save and attempt to restore a non-zero PERF_CAPABILITIES, thanks to KVM's meddling.
