When L1 don't use TPR-Shadow to run L2, L0 configures vmcs02 without TPR-Shadow and install intercepts on CR8 access (load and store). If L1 do not intercept L2 CR8 access, L0 intercepts on those accesses will emulate load/store on L1's LAPIC TPR. If in this case L2 lowers TPR such that there is now an injectable interrupt to L1, apic_update_ppr() will request a KVM_REQ_EVENT which will trigger a call to update_cr8_intercept() to update TPR-Threshold to highest pending IRR priority. However, this update to TPR-Threshold is done while active vmcs is vmcs02 instead of vmcs01. Thus, when later at some point L0 will emulate an exit from L2 to L1, L1 will still run with high TPR-Threshold. This will result in every VMEntry to L1 to immediately exit on TPR_BELOW_THRESHOLD and continue to do so infinitely until some condition will cause KVM_REQ_EVENT to be set. (Note that TPR_BELOW_THRESHOLD exit handler do not set KVM_REQ_EVENT until apic_update_ppr() will notice a new injectable interrupt for PPR) To fix this issue, change update_cr8_intercept() such that if L2 lowers L1's TPR in a way that requires to lower L1's TPR-Threshold, save update to TPR-Threshold and apply it to vmcs01 when L0 emulates an exit from L2 to L1.

Intel SDM section 25.2 OTHER CAUSES OF VM EXITS specifies the following on INIT signals: "Such exits do not modify register state or clear pending events as they would outside of VMX operation." When commit 4b9852f4 ("KVM: x86: Fix INIT signal handling in various CPU states") was applied, I interepted above Intel SDM statement such that INIT_SIGNAL exit don’t consume the LAPIC INIT pending event. However, when Nadav Amit run matching kvm-unit-test on a bare-metal machine, it turned out my interpetation was wrong. i.e. INIT_SIGNAL exit does consume the LAPIC INIT pending event. (See: https://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm/msg196757.html) Therefore, fix KVM code to behave as observed on bare-metal.

Write the desired L2 CR3 into vmcs02.GUEST_CR3 during nested VM-Enter instead of deferring the VMWRITE until vmx_set_cr3(). If the VMWRITE is deferred, then KVM can consume a stale vmcs02.GUEST_CR3 when it refreshes vmcs12->guest_cr3 during nested_vmx_vmexit() if the emulated VM-Exit occurs without actually entering L2, e.g. if the nested run is squashed because nested VM-Enter (from L1) is putting L2 into HLT. Note, the above scenario can occur regardless of whether L1 is intercepting HLT, e.g. L1 can intercept HLT and then re-enter L2 with vmcs.GUEST_ACTIVITY_STATE=HALTED. But practically speaking, a VMM will likely put a guest into HALTED if and only if it's not intercepting HLT. In an ideal world where EPT *requires* unrestricted guest (and vice versa), VMX could handle CR3 similar to how it handles RSP and RIP, e.g. mark CR3 dirty and conditionally load it at vmx_vcpu_run(). But the unrestricted guest silliness complicates the dirty tracking logic to the point that explicitly handling vmcs02.GUEST_CR3 during nested VM-Enter is a simpler overall implementation.

Current versions of Intel's SDM incorrectly state that "bits 31:15 of the VM-Entry exception error-code field" must be zero. In reality, bits 31:16 must be zero, i.e. error codes are 16-bit values. The bogus error code check manifests as an unexpected VM-Entry failure due to an invalid code field (error number 7) in L1, e.g. when injecting a #GP with error_code=0x9f00. Nadav previously reported the bug[*], both to KVM and Intel, and fixed the associated kvm-unit-test.

Allowing an unlimited number of MSRs to be specified via the VMX load/store MSR lists (e.g., vm-entry MSR load list) is bad for two reasons. First, a guest can specify an unreasonable number of MSRs, forcing KVM to process all of them in software. Second, the SDM bounds the number of MSRs allowed to be packed into the atomic switch MSR lists. Quoting the "Miscellaneous Data" section in the "VMX Capability Reporting Facility" appendix: "Bits 27:25 is used to compute the recommended maximum number of MSRs that should appear in the VM-exit MSR-store list, the VM-exit MSR-load list, or the VM-entry MSR-load list. Specifically, if the value bits 27:25 of IA32_VMX_MISC is N, then 512 * (N + 1) is the recommended maximum number of MSRs to be included in each list. If the limit is exceeded, undefined processor behavior may result (including a machine check during the VMX transition)." Because KVM needs to protect itself and can't model "undefined processor behavior", arbitrarily force a VM-entry to fail due to MSR loading when the MSR load list is too large. Similarly, trigger an abort during a VM exit that encounters an MSR load list or MSR store list that is too large. The MSR list size is intentionally not pre-checked so as to maintain compatibility with hardware inasmuch as possible. Test these new checks with the kvm-unit-test "x86: nvmx: test max atomic switch MSRs".

UMONITOR, UMWAIT and TPAUSE are a set of user wait instructions. This patch adds support for user wait instructions in KVM. Availability of the user wait instructions is indicated by the presence of the CPUID feature flag WAITPKG CPUID.0x07.0x0:ECX[5]. User wait instructions may be executed at any privilege level, and use 32bit IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL MSR to set the maximum time. The behavior of user wait instructions in VMX non-root operation is determined first by the setting of the "enable user wait and pause" secondary processor-based VM-execution control bit 26. If the VM-execution control is 0, UMONITOR/UMWAIT/TPAUSE cause an invalid-opcode exception (#UD). If the VM-execution control is 1, treatment is based on the setting of the “RDTSC exiting†VM-execution control. Because KVM never enables RDTSC exiting, if the instruction causes a delay, the amount of time delayed is called here the physical delay. The physical delay is first computed by determining the virtual delay. If IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL[31:2] is zero, the virtual delay is the value in EDX:EAX minus the value that RDTSC would return; if IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL[31:2] is not zero, the virtual delay is the minimum of that difference and AND(IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL,FFFFFFFCH). Because umwait and tpause can put a (psysical) CPU into a power saving state, by default we dont't expose it to kvm and enable it only when guest CPUID has it. Detailed information about user wait instructions can be found in the latest Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer's Manual.

If the logical processor is in IA-32e mode (if IA32_EFER.LMA = 1) at the time of VM entry, the "host address-space size" VM-exit control must be 1. If the "host address-space size" VM-exit control is 0, the following must hold: - The "IA-32e mode guest" VM-entry control is 0. - Bit 17 of the CR4 field (corresponding to CR4.PCIDE) is 0. - Bits 63:32 in the RIP field are 0. If the "host address-space size" VM-exit control is 1, the following must hold: - Bit 5 of the CR4 field (corresponding to CR4.PAE) is 1. - The RIP field contains a canonical address.

Commit cd7764fe ("KVM: x86: latch INITs while in system management mode") changed code to latch INIT while vCPU is in SMM and process latched INIT when leaving SMM. It left a subtle remark in commit message that similar treatment should also be done while vCPU is in VMX non-root-mode. However, INIT signals should actually be latched in various vCPU states: (*) For both Intel and AMD, INIT signals should be latched while vCPU is in SMM. (*) For Intel, INIT should also be latched while vCPU is in VMX operation and later processed when vCPU leaves VMX operation by executing VMXOFF. (*) For AMD, INIT should also be latched while vCPU runs with GIF=0 or in guest-mode with intercept defined on INIT signal. To fix this: 1) Add kvm_x86_ops->apic_init_signal_blocked() such that each CPU vendor can define the various CPU states in which INIT signals should be blocked and modify kvm_apic_accept_events() to use it. 2) Modify vmx_check_nested_events() to check for pending INIT signal while vCPU in guest-mode. If so, emualte vmexit on EXIT_REASON_INIT_SIGNAL. Note that nSVM should have similar behaviour but is currently left as a TODO comment to implement in the future because nSVM don't yet implement svm_check_nested_events(). Note: Currently KVM nVMX implementation don't support VMX wait-for-SIPI activity state as specified in MSR_IA32_VMX_MISC bits 6:8 exposed to guest (See nested_vmx_setup_ctls_msrs()). If and when support for this activity state will be implemented, kvm_check_nested_events() would need to avoid emulating vmexit on INIT signal in case activity-state is wait-for-SIPI. In addition, kvm_apic_accept_events() would need to be modified to avoid discarding SIPI in case VMX activity-state is wait-for-SIPI but instead delay SIPI processing to vmx_check_nested_events() that would clear pending APIC events and emulate vmexit on SIPI.

Take the opportunity to print the name of the error code instead of dumping the raw hex number, but limit the symbol table to error codes that can reasonably be encountered by KVM.

Debugging a failed VM-Enter is often like searching for a needle in a haystack, e.g. there are over 80 consistency checks that funnel into the "invalid control field" error code. One way to expedite debug is to run the buggy code as an L1 guest under KVM (and pray that the failing check is detected by KVM). However, extracting useful debug information out of L0 KVM requires attaching a debugger to KVM and/or modifying the source, e.g. to log which check is failing. Make life a little less painful for VMM developers and add a tracepoint for failed VM-Enter consistency checks. Ideally the tracepoint would capture both what check failed and precisely why it failed, but logging why a checked failed is difficult to do in a generic tracepoint without resorting to invasive techniques, e.g. generating a custom string on failure. That being said, for the vast majority of VM-Enter failures the most difficult step is figuring out exactly what to look at, e.g. figuring out which bit was incorrectly set in a control field is usually not too painful once the guilty field as been identified. To reach a happy medium between precision and ease of use, simply log the code that detected a failed check, using a macro to execute the check and log the trace event on failure. This approach enables tracing arbitrary code, e.g. it's not limited to function calls or specific formats of checks, and the changes to the existing code are minimally invasive. A macro with a two-character name is desirable as usage of the macro doesn't result in overly long lines or confusing alignment, while still retaining some amount of readability. I.e. a one-character name is a little too terse, and a three-character name results in the contents being passed to the macro aligning with an indented line when the macro is used an in if-statement, e.g.: if (VCC(nested_vmx_check_long_line_one(...) && nested_vmx_check_long_line_two(...))) return -EINVAL; And that is the story of how the CC(), a.k.a. Consistency Check, macro got its name. Signed-off-by: NSean Christopherson <sean.j.christopherson@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NPaolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

KVM does not have 100% coverage of VMX consistency checks, i.e. some checks that cause VM-Fail may only be detected by hardware during a nested VM-Entry. In such a case, KVM must restore L1's state to the pre-VM-Enter state as L2's state has already been loaded into KVM's software model. L1's CR3 and PDPTRs in particular are loaded from vmcs01.GUEST_*. But when EPT is disabled, the associated fields hold KVM's shadow values, not L1's "real" values. Fortunately, when EPT is disabled the PDPTRs come from memory, i.e. are not cached in the VMCS. Which leaves CR3 as the sole anomaly. A previously applied workaround to handle CR3 was to force nested early checks if EPT is disabled: commit 2b27924b ("KVM: nVMX: always use early vmcs check when EPT is disabled") Forcing nested early checks is undesirable as doing so adds hundreds of cycles to every nested VM-Entry. Rather than take this performance hit, handle CR3 by overwriting vmcs01.GUEST_CR3 with L1's CR3 during nested VM-Entry when EPT is disabled *and* nested early checks are disabled. By stuffing vmcs01.GUEST_CR3, nested_vmx_restore_host_state() will naturally restore the correct vcpu->arch.cr3 from vmcs01.GUEST_CR3. These shenanigans work because nested_vmx_restore_host_state() does a full kvm_mmu_reset_context(), i.e. unloads the current MMU, which guarantees vmcs01.GUEST_CR3 will be rewritten with a new shadow CR3 prior to re-entering L1. vcpu->arch.root_mmu.root_hpa is set to INVALID_PAGE via: nested_vmx_restore_host_state() -> kvm_mmu_reset_context() -> kvm_mmu_unload() -> kvm_mmu_free_roots() kvm_mmu_unload() has WARN_ON(root_hpa != INVALID_PAGE), i.e. we can bank on 'root_hpa == INVALID_PAGE' unless the implementation of kvm_mmu_reset_context() is changed. On the way into L1, VMCS.GUEST_CR3 is guaranteed to be written (on a successful entry) via: vcpu_enter_guest() -> kvm_mmu_reload() -> kvm_mmu_load() -> kvm_mmu_load_cr3() -> vmx_set_cr3() Stuff vmcs01.GUEST_CR3 if and only if nested early checks are disabled as a "late" VM-Fail should never happen win that case (KVM WARNs), and the conditional write avoids the need to restore the correct GUEST_CR3 when nested_vmx_check_vmentry_hw() fails.

Currently KVM_STATE_NESTED_EVMCS is used to signal that eVMCS capability is enabled on vCPU. As indicated by vmx->nested.enlightened_vmcs_enabled. This is quite bizarre as userspace VMM should make sure to expose same vCPU with same CPUID values in both source and destination. In case vCPU is exposed with eVMCS support on CPUID, it is also expected to enable KVM_CAP_HYPERV_ENLIGHTENED_VMCS capability. Therefore, KVM_STATE_NESTED_EVMCS is redundant. KVM_STATE_NESTED_EVMCS is currently used on restore path (vmx_set_nested_state()) only to enable eVMCS capability in KVM and to signal need_vmcs12_sync such that on next VMEntry to guest nested_sync_from_vmcs12() will be called to sync vmcs12 content into eVMCS in guest memory. However, because restore nested-state is rare enough, we could have just modified vmx_set_nested_state() to always signal need_vmcs12_sync. From all the above, it seems that we could have just removed the usage of KVM_STATE_NESTED_EVMCS. However, in order to preserve backwards migration compatibility, we cannot do that. (vmx_get_nested_state() needs to signal flag when migrating from new kernel to old kernel). Returning KVM_STATE_NESTED_EVMCS when just vCPU have eVMCS enabled have a bad side-effect of userspace VMM having to send nested-state from source to destination as part of migration stream. Even if guest have never used eVMCS as it doesn't even run a nested hypervisor workload. This requires destination userspace VMM and KVM to support setting nested-state. Which make it more difficult to migrate from new host to older host. To avoid this, change KVM_STATE_NESTED_EVMCS to signal eVMCS is not only enabled but also active. i.e. Guest have made some eVMCS active via an enlightened VMEntry. i.e. vmcs12 is copied from eVMCS and therefore should be restored into eVMCS resident in memory (by copy_vmcs12_to_enlightened()).

When L0 is executing handle_invept(), the TDP MMU is active. Emulating an L1 INVEPT does require synchronizing the appropriate shadow EPT root(s), but a call to kvm_mmu_sync_roots in this context won't do that. Similarly, the hardware TLB and paging-structure-cache entries associated with the appropriate shadow EPT root(s) must be flushed, but requesting a TLB_FLUSH from this context won't do that either. How did this ever work? KVM always does a sync_roots and TLB flush (in the correct context) when transitioning from L1 to L2. That isn't the best choice for nested VM performance, but it effectively papers over the mistakes here. Remove the unnecessary operations and leave a comment to try to do better in the future.

When Enlightened VMCS is in use, it is valid to do VMCLEAR and, according to TLFS, this should "transition an enlightened VMCS from the active to the non-active state". It is, however, wrong to assume that it is only valid to do VMCLEAR for the eVMCS which is currently active on the vCPU performing VMCLEAR. Currently, the logic in handle_vmclear() is broken: in case, there is no active eVMCS on the vCPU doing VMCLEAR we treat the argument as a 'normal' VMCS and kvm_vcpu_write_guest() to the 'launch_state' field irreversibly corrupts the memory area. So, in case the VMCLEAR argument is not the current active eVMCS on the vCPU, how can we know if the area it is pointing to is a normal or an enlightened VMCS? Thanks to the bug in Hyper-V (see commit 72aeb60c ("KVM: nVMX: Verify eVMCS revision id match supported eVMCS version on eVMCS VMPTRLD")) we can not, the revision can't be used to distinguish between them. So let's assume it is always enlightened in case enlightened vmentry is enabled in the assist page. Also, check if vmx->nested.enlightened_vmcs_enabled to minimize the impact for 'unenlightened' workloads.

Apparently, Windows doesn't maintain clean fields data after it does VMCLEAR for an enlightened VMCS so we can only use it on VMRESUME. The issue went unnoticed because currently we do nested_release_evmcs() in handle_vmclear() and the consecutive enlightened VMPTRLD invalidates clean fields when a new eVMCS is mapped but we're going to change the logic.

Some secondary controls are automatically enabled/disabled based on the CPUID values that are set for the guest. However, they are still available at a global level and therefore should be present when KVM_GET_MSRS is sent to /dev/kvm.

Commit 332d0797 ("KVM: nVMX: KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE - Tear down old EVMCS state before setting new state", 2019-05-02) broke evmcs_test because the eVMCS setup must be performed even if there is no VMXON region defined, as long as the eVMCS bit is set in the assist page. While the simplest possible fix would be to add a check on kvm_state->flags & KVM_STATE_NESTED_EVMCS in the initial "if" that covers kvm_state->hdr.vmx.vmxon_pa == -1ull, that is quite ugly. Instead, this patch moves checks earlier in the function and conditionalizes them on kvm_state->hdr.vmx.vmxon_pa, so that vmx_set_nested_state always goes through vmx_leave_nested and nested_enable_evmcs.

Improve the KVM_{GET,SET}_NESTED_STATE structs by detailing the format of VMX nested state data in a struct. In order to avoid changing the ioctl values of KVM_{GET,SET}_NESTED_STATE, there is a need to preserve sizeof(struct kvm_nested_state). This is done by defining the data struct as "data.vmx[0]". It was the most elegant way I found to preserve struct size while still keeping struct readable and easy to maintain. It does have a misfortunate side-effect that now it has to be accessed as "data.vmx[0]" rather than just "data.vmx". Because we are already modifying these structs, I also modified the following: * Define the "format" field values as macros. * Rename vmcs_pa to vmcs12_pa for better readability.

VMWRITEs to the major VMCS controls, pin controls included, are deceptively expensive. CPUs with VMCS caching (Westmere and later) also optimize away consistency checks on VM-Entry, i.e. skip consistency checks if the relevant fields have not changed since the last successful VM-Entry (of the cached VMCS). Because uops are a precious commodity, uCode's dirty VMCS field tracking isn't as precise as software would prefer. Notably, writing any of the major VMCS fields effectively marks the entire VMCS dirty, i.e. causes the next VM-Entry to perform all consistency checks, which consumes several hundred cycles. As it pertains to KVM, toggling PIN_BASED_VMX_PREEMPTION_TIMER more than doubles the latency of the next VM-Entry (and again when/if the flag is toggled back). In a non-nested scenario, running a "standard" guest with the preemption timer enabled, toggling the timer flag is uncommon but not rare, e.g. roughly 1 in 10 entries. Disabling the preemption timer can change these numbers due to its use for "immediate exits", even when explicitly disabled by userspace. Nested virtualization in particular is painful, as the timer flag is set for the majority of VM-Enters, but prepare_vmcs02() initializes vmcs02's pin controls to *clear* the flag since its the timer's final state isn't known until vmx_vcpu_run(). I.e. the majority of nested VM-Enters end up unnecessarily writing pin controls *twice*. Rather than toggle the timer flag in pin controls, set the timer value itself to the largest allowed value to put it into a "soft disabled" state, and ignore any spurious preemption timer exits. Sadly, the timer is a 32-bit value and so theoretically it can fire before the head death of the universe, i.e. spurious exits are possible. But because KVM does *not* save the timer value on VM-Exit and because the timer runs at a slower rate than the TSC, the maximuma timer value is still sufficiently large for KVM's purposes. E.g. on a modern CPU with a timer that runs at 1/32 the frequency of a 2.4ghz constant-rate TSC, the timer will fire after ~55 seconds of *uninterrupted* guest execution. In other words, spurious VM-Exits are effectively only possible if the host is completely tickless on the logical CPU, the guest is not using the preemption timer, and the guest is not generating VM-Exits for any other reason. To be safe from bad/weird hardware, disable the preemption timer if its maximum delay is less than ten seconds. Ten seconds is mostly arbitrary and was selected in no small part because it's a nice round number. For simplicity and paranoia, fall back to __kvm_request_immediate_exit() if the preemption timer is disabled by KVM or userspace. Previously KVM continued to use the preemption timer to force immediate exits even when the timer was disabled by userspace. Now that KVM leaves the timer running instead of truly disabling it, allow userspace to kill it entirely in the unlikely event the timer (or KVM) malfunctions.

KVM dynamically toggles SECONDARY_EXEC_DESC to intercept (a subset of) instructions that are subject to User-Mode Instruction Prevention, i.e. VMCS.SECONDARY_EXEC_DESC == CR4.UMIP when emulating UMIP. Preset the VMCS control when preparing vmcs02 to avoid unnecessarily VMWRITEs, e.g. KVM will clear VMCS.SECONDARY_EXEC_DESC in prepare_vmcs02_early() and then set it in vmx_set_cr4().

Or: Don't re-initialize vmcs02's controls on every nested VM-Entry. VMWRITEs to the major VMCS controls are deceptively expensive.

Notably, writing any of the major VMCS fields effectively marks the entire VMCS dirty, i.e. causes the next VM-Entry to perform all consistency checks, which consumes several hundred cycles. Zero out the controls' shadow copies during VMCS allocation and use the optimized setter when "initializing" controls. While this technically affects both non-nested and nested virtualization, nested virtualization is the primary beneficiary as avoid VMWRITEs when prepare vmcs02 allows hardware to optimizie away consistency checks.
