In commit e935b837 ("KVM: Convert kvm_lock to raw_spinlock"), the kvm_lock was made a raw lock. However, the kvm mmu_shrink() function tries to grab the (non-raw) mmu_lock within the scope of the raw locked kvm_lock being held. This leads to the following: BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/rtmutex.c:659 in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 55, name: kswapd0 Preemption disabled at:[<ffffffffa0376eac>] mmu_shrink+0x5c/0x1b0 [kvm] Pid: 55, comm: kswapd0 Not tainted 3.4.34_preempt-rt Call Trace: [<ffffffff8106f2ad>] __might_sleep+0xfd/0x160 [<ffffffff817d8d64>] rt_spin_lock+0x24/0x50 [<ffffffffa0376f3c>] mmu_shrink+0xec/0x1b0 [kvm] [<ffffffff8111455d>] shrink_slab+0x17d/0x3a0 [<ffffffff81151f00>] ? mem_cgroup_iter+0x130/0x260 [<ffffffff8111824a>] balance_pgdat+0x54a/0x730 [<ffffffff8111fe47>] ? set_pgdat_percpu_threshold+0xa7/0xd0 [<ffffffff811185bf>] kswapd+0x18f/0x490 [<ffffffff81070961>] ? get_parent_ip+0x11/0x50 [<ffffffff81061970>] ? __init_waitqueue_head+0x50/0x50 [<ffffffff81118430>] ? balance_pgdat+0x730/0x730 [<ffffffff81060d2b>] kthread+0xdb/0xe0 [<ffffffff8106e122>] ? finish_task_switch+0x52/0x100 [<ffffffff817e1e94>] kernel_thread_helper+0x4/0x10 [<ffffffff81060c50>] ? __init_kthread_worker+0x After the previous patch, kvm_lock need not be a raw spinlock anymore, so change it back.

If we let L1 use EPT, we should probably also support the INVEPT instruction. In our current nested EPT implementation, when L1 changes its EPT table for L2 (i.e., EPT12), L0 modifies the shadow EPT table (EPT02), and in the course of this modification already calls INVEPT. But if last level of shadow page is unsync not all L1's changes to EPT12 are intercepted, which means roots need to be synced when L1 calls INVEPT. Global INVEPT should not be different since roots are synced by kvm_mmu_load() each time EPTP02 changes.

KVM's existing shadow MMU code already supports nested TDP. To use it, we need to set up a new "MMU context" for nested EPT, and create a few callbacks for it (nested_ept_*()). This context should also use the EPT versions of the page table access functions (defined in the previous patch). Then, we need to switch back and forth between this nested context and the regular MMU context when switching between L1 and L2 (when L1 runs this L2 with EPT).

This is the first patch in a series which adds nested EPT support to KVM's nested VMX. Nested EPT means emulating EPT for an L1 guest so that L1 can use EPT when running a nested guest L2. When L1 uses EPT, it allows the L2 guest to set its own cr3 and take its own page faults without either of L0 or L1 getting involved. This often significanlty improves L2's performance over the previous two alternatives (shadow page tables over EPT, and shadow page tables over shadow page tables). This patch adds EPT support to paging_tmpl.h. paging_tmpl.h contains the code for reading and writing page tables. The code for 32-bit and 64-bit tables is very similar, but not identical, so paging_tmpl.h is #include'd twice in mmu.c, once with PTTTYPE=32 and once with PTTYPE=64, and this generates the two sets of similar functions. There are subtle but important differences between the format of EPT tables and that of ordinary x86 64-bit page tables, so for nested EPT we need a third set of functions to read the guest EPT table and to write the shadow EPT table. So this patch adds third PTTYPE, PTTYPE_EPT, which creates functions (prefixed with "EPT") which correctly read and write EPT tables.

Currently, fast page fault incorrectly tries to fix mmio page fault when the generation number is invalid (spte.gen != kvm.gen). It then returns to guest to retry the fault since it sees the last spte is nonpresent. This causes an infinite loop. Since fast page fault only works for direct mmu, the issue exists when 1) tdp is enabled. It is only triggered only on AMD host since on Intel host the mmio page fault is recognized as ept-misconfig whose handler call fault-page path with error_code = 0 2) guest paging is disabled. Under this case, the issue is hardly discovered since paging disable is short-lived and the sptes will be invalid after memslot changed for 150 times Fix it by filtering out MMIO page faults in page_fault_can_be_fast.

This patch tries to introduce a very simple and scale way to invalidate all mmio sptes - it need not walk any shadow pages and hold mmu-lock KVM maintains a global mmio valid generation-number which is stored in kvm->memslots.generation and every mmio spte stores the current global generation-number into his available bits when it is created When KVM need zap all mmio sptes, it just simply increase the global generation-number. When guests do mmio access, KVM intercepts a MMIO #PF then it walks the shadow page table and get the mmio spte. If the generation-number on the spte does not equal the global generation-number, it will go to the normal #PF handler to update the mmio spte Since 19 bits are used to store generation-number on mmio spte, we zap all mmio sptes when the number is round Signed-off-by: NXiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: NGleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: NMarcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NPaolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

The current kvm_mmu_zap_all is really slow - it is holding mmu-lock to walk and zap all shadow pages one by one, also it need to zap all guest page's rmap and all shadow page's parent spte list. Particularly, things become worse if guest uses more memory or vcpus. It is not good for scalability In this patch, we introduce a faster way to invalidate all shadow pages. KVM maintains a global mmu invalid generation-number which is stored in kvm->arch.mmu_valid_gen and every shadow page stores the current global generation-number into sp->mmu_valid_gen when it is created When KVM need zap all shadow pages sptes, it just simply increase the global generation-number then reload root shadow pages on all vcpus. Vcpu will create a new shadow page table according to current kvm's generation-number. It ensures the old pages are not used any more. Then the obsolete pages (sp->mmu_valid_gen != kvm->arch.mmu_valid_gen) are zapped by using lock-break technique Signed-off-by: NXiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: NMarcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NGleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com>

What this function is doing is to ensure that the number of shadow pages does not exceed the maximum limit stored in n_max_mmu_pages: so this is placed at every code path that can reach kvm_mmu_alloc_page(). Although it might have some sense to spread this function in each such code path when it could be called before taking mmu_lock, the rule was changed not to do so. Taking this background into account, this patch moves it into kvm_mmu_alloc_page() and simplifies the code. Note: the unlikely hint in kvm_mmu_free_some_pages() guarantees that the overhead of this function is almost zero except when we actually need to allocate some shadow pages, so we do not need to care about calling it multiple times in one path by doing kvm_mmu_get_page() a few times.

When we create or move a memory slot, we need to zap mmio sptes. Currently, zap_all() is used for this and this is causing two problems: - extra page faults after zapping mmu pages - long mmu_lock hold time during zapping mmu pages For the latter, Marcelo reported a disastrous mmu_lock hold time during hot-plug, which made the guest unresponsive for a long time. This patch takes a simple way to fix these problems: do not zap mmu pages unless they are marked mmio cached. On our test box, this took only 50us for the 4GB guest and we did not see ms of mmu_lock hold time any more. Note that we still need to do zap_all() for other cases. So another work is also needed: Xiao's work may be the one.
