This patch introduces a new mechanism to inject interrupt using AVIC. Since VINTR is not supported when enable AVIC, we need to inject interrupt via APIC backing page instead. This patch also adds support for AVIC doorbell, which is used by KVM to signal a running vcpu to check IRR for injected interrupts.

This patch introduces AVIC-related data structure, and AVIC initialization code. There are three main data structures for AVIC: * Virtual APIC (vAPIC) backing page (per-VCPU) * Physical APIC ID table (per-VM) * Logical APIC ID table (per-VM) Currently, AVIC is disabled by default. Users can manually enable AVIC via kernel boot option kvm-amd.avic=1 or during kvm-amd module loading with parameter avic=1.

Some wakeups should not be considered a sucessful poll. For example on s390 I/O interrupts are usually floating, which means that _ALL_ CPUs would be considered runnable - letting all vCPUs poll all the time for transactional like workload, even if one vCPU would be enough. This can result in huge CPU usage for large guests. This patch lets architectures provide a way to qualify wakeups if they should be considered a good/bad wakeups in regard to polls. For s390 the implementation will fence of halt polling for anything but known good, single vCPU events. The s390 implementation for floating interrupts does a wakeup for one vCPU, but the interrupt will be delivered by whatever CPU checks first for a pending interrupt. We prefer the woken up CPU by marking the poll of this CPU as "good" poll. This code will also mark several other wakeup reasons like IPI or expired timers as "good". This will of course also mark some events as not sucessful. As KVM on z runs always as a 2nd level hypervisor, we prefer to not poll, unless we are really sure, though. This patch successfully limits the CPU usage for cases like uperf 1byte transactional ping pong workload or wakeup heavy workload like OLTP while still providing a proper speedup. This also introduced a new vcpu stat "halt_poll_no_tuning" that marks wakeups that are considered not good for polling.

Commit d28bc9dd reversed the order of two lines which initialize cr0, allowing the current (old) cr0 value to mess up vcpu initialization. This was observed in the checks for cr0 X86_CR0_WP bit in the context of kvm_mmu_reset_context(). Besides, setting vcpu->arch.cr0 after vmx_set_cr0() is completely redundant. Change the order back to ensure proper vcpu initialization. The combination of booting with ovmf firmware when guest vcpus > 1 and kvm's ept=N option being set results in a VM-entry failure. This patch fixes that.

An interrupt handler that uses the fpu can kill a KVM VM, if it runs under the following conditions: - the guest's xcr0 register is loaded on the cpu - the guest's fpu context is not loaded - the host is using eagerfpu Note that the guest's xcr0 register and fpu context are not loaded as part of the atomic world switch into "guest mode". They are loaded by KVM while the cpu is still in "host mode". Usage of the fpu in interrupt context is gated by irq_fpu_usable(). The interrupt handler will look something like this: if (irq_fpu_usable()) { kernel_fpu_begin(); [... code that uses the fpu ...] kernel_fpu_end(); } As long as the guest's fpu is not loaded and the host is using eager fpu, irq_fpu_usable() returns true (interrupted_kernel_fpu_idle() returns true). The interrupt handler proceeds to use the fpu with the guest's xcr0 live. kernel_fpu_begin() saves the current fpu context. If this uses XSAVE[OPT], it may leave the xsave area in an undesirable state. According to the SDM, during XSAVE bit i of XSTATE_BV is not modified if bit i is 0 in xcr0. So it's possible that XSTATE_BV[i] == 1 and xcr0[i] == 0 following an XSAVE. kernel_fpu_end() restores the fpu context. Now if any bit i in XSTATE_BV == 1 while xcr0[i] == 0, XRSTOR generates a #GP. The fault is trapped and SIGSEGV is delivered to the current process. Only pre-4.2 kernels appear to be vulnerable to this sequence of events. Commit 653f52c3 ("kvm,x86: load guest FPU context more eagerly") from 4.2 forces the guest's fpu to always be loaded on eagerfpu hosts. This patch fixes the bug by keeping the host's xcr0 loaded outside of the interrupts-disabled region where KVM switches into guest mode.

When a vCPU runs on a nohz_full core, the hrtimer used by the lapic emulation code can be migrated to another core. When this happens, it's possible to observe milisecond latency when delivering timer IRQs to KVM guests. The huge latency is mainly due to the fact that apic_timer_fn() expects to run during a kvm exit. It sets KVM_REQ_PENDING_TIMER and let it be handled on kvm entry. However, if the timer fires on a different core, we have to wait until the next kvm exit for the guest to see KVM_REQ_PENDING_TIMER set. This problem became visible after commit 9642d18e. This commit changed the timer migration code to always attempt to migrate timers away from nohz_full cores. While it's discussable if this is correct/desirable (I don't think it is), it's clear that the lapic emulation code has a requirement on firing the hrtimer in the same core where it was started. This is achieved by making the hrtimer pinned. Lastly, note that KVM has code to migrate timers when a vCPU is scheduled to run in different core. However, this forced migration may fail. When this happens, we can have the same problem. If we want 100% correctness, we'll have to modify apic_timer_fn() to cause a kvm exit when it runs on a different core than the vCPU. Not sure if this is possible. Here's a reproducer for the issue being fixed: 1. Set all cores but core0 to be nohz_full cores 2. Start a guest with a single vCPU 3. Trace apic_timer_fn() and kvm_inject_apic_timer_irqs() You'll see that apic_timer_fn() will run in core0 while kvm_inject_apic_timer_irqs() runs in a different core. If you get both on core0, try running a program that takes 100% of the CPU and pin it to core0 to force the vCPU out.

Non maskable interrupts (NMI) are preferred to interrupts in current implementation. If a NMI is pending and NMI is blocked by the result of nmi_allowed(), pending interrupt is not injected and enable_irq_window() is not executed, even if interrupts injection is allowed. In old kernel (e.g. 2.6.32), schedule() is often called in NMI context. In this case, interrupts are needed to execute iret that intends end of NMI. The flag of blocking new NMI is not cleared until the guest execute the iret, and interrupts are blocked by pending NMI. Due to this, iret can't be invoked in the guest, and the guest is starved until block is cleared by some events (e.g. canceling injection). This patch injects pending interrupts, when it's allowed, even if NMI is blocked. And, If an interrupts is pending after executing inject_pending_event(), enable_irq_window() is executed regardless of NMI pending counter.

KVM has special logic to handle pages with pte.u=1 and pte.w=0 when CR0.WP=1. These pages' SPTEs flip continuously between two states: U=1/W=0 (user and supervisor reads allowed, supervisor writes not allowed) and U=0/W=1 (supervisor reads and writes allowed, user writes not allowed). When SMEP is in effect, however, U=0 will enable kernel execution of this page. To avoid this, KVM also sets NX=1 in the shadow PTE together with U=0, making the two states U=1/W=0/NX=gpte.NX and U=0/W=1/NX=1. When guest EFER has the NX bit cleared, the reserved bit check thinks that the latter state is invalid; teach it that the smep_andnot_wp case will also use the NX bit of SPTEs.

Yes, all of these are needed. :) This is admittedly a bit odd, but kvm-unit-tests access.flat tests this if you run it with "-cpu host" and of course ept=0. KVM runs the guest with CR0.WP=1, so it must handle supervisor writes specially when pte.u=1/pte.w=0/CR0.WP=0. Such writes cause a fault when U=1 and W=0 in the SPTE, but they must succeed because CR0.WP=0. When KVM gets the fault, it sets U=0 and W=1 in the shadow PTE and restarts execution. This will still cause a user write to fault, while supervisor writes will succeed. User reads will fault spuriously now, and KVM will then flip U and W again in the SPTE (U=1, W=0). User reads will be enabled and supervisor writes disabled, going back to the originary situation where supervisor writes fault spuriously. When SMEP is in effect, however, U=0 will enable kernel execution of this page. To avoid this, KVM also sets NX=1 in the shadow PTE together with U=0. If the guest has not enabled NX, the result is a continuous stream of page faults due to the NX bit being reserved. The fix is to force EFER.NX=1 even if the CPU is taking care of the EFER switch. (All machines with SMEP have the CPU_LOAD_IA32_EFER vm-entry control, so they do not use user-return notifiers for EFER---if they did, EFER.NX would be forced to the same value as the host). There is another bug in the reserved bit check, which I've split to a separate patch for easier application to stable kernels.

When eager FPU is disabled, KVM will still see the MPX bit in CPUID and presumably the MPX vmentry and vmexit controls. However, it will not be able to expose the MPX XSAVE features to the guest, because the guest's accessible XSAVE features are always a subset of host_xcr0. In this case, we should disable the MPX CPUID bit, the BNDCFGS MSR, and the MPX vmentry and vmexit controls for nested virtualization. It is then unnecessary to enable guest eager FPU if the guest has the MPX CPUID bit set. Signed-off-by: NPaolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

Linux guests on Haswell (and also SandyBridge and Broadwell, at least) would crash if you decided to run a host command that uses PEBS, like perf record -e 'cpu/mem-stores/pp' -a This happens because KVM is using VMX MSR switching to disable PEBS, but SDM [2015-12] 18.4.4.4 Re-configuring PEBS Facilities explains why it isn't safe: When software needs to reconfigure PEBS facilities, it should allow a quiescent period between stopping the prior event counting and setting up a new PEBS event. The quiescent period is to allow any latent residual PEBS records to complete its capture at their previously specified buffer address (provided by IA32_DS_AREA). There might not be a quiescent period after the MSR switch, so a CPU ends up using host's MSR_IA32_DS_AREA to access an area in guest's memory. (Or MSR switching is just buggy on some models.) The guest can learn something about the host this way: If the guest doesn't map address pointed by MSR_IA32_DS_AREA, it results in #PF where we leak host's MSR_IA32_DS_AREA through CR2. After that, a malicious guest can map and configure memory where MSR_IA32_DS_AREA is pointing and can therefore get an output from host's tracing. This is not a critical leak as the host must initiate with PEBS tracing and I have not been able to get a record from more than one instruction before vmentry in vmx_vcpu_run() (that place has most registers already overwritten with guest's). We could disable PEBS just few instructions before vmentry, but disabling it earlier shouldn't affect host tracing too much. We also don't need to switch MSR_IA32_PEBS_ENABLE on VMENTRY, but that optimization isn't worth its code, IMO. (If you are implementing PEBS for guests, be sure to handle the case where both host and guest enable PEBS, because this patch doesn't.) Fixes: 26a4f3c0 ("perf/x86: disable PEBS on a guest entry.")
