Commit ca84d1a2 (KVM: x86: Add clock sync request to hardware enable) mentioned
that "we always hold kvm_lock when hardware_enable is called.  The one place that
doesn't need to worry about it is resume, as resuming a frozen CPU, the spinlock
won't be taken." However, commit 6706dae9 (virt/kvm: Replace spin_is_locked() with
lockdep) introduces a bug, it asserts when the lock is not held which is contrary
to the original goal.

This patch fixes it by WARN_ON when the lock is held.

      KVM: Introduce a new guest mapping API · e45adf66
      由 KarimAllah Ahmed 提交于 
      In KVM, specially for nested guests, there is a dominant pattern of:

	=> map guest memory -> do_something -> unmap guest memory

In addition to all this unnecessarily noise in the code due to boiler plate
code, most of the time the mapping function does not properly handle memory
that is not backed by "struct page". This new guest mapping API encapsulate
most of this boiler plate code and also handles guest memory that is not
backed by "struct page".

The current implementation of this API is using memremap for memory that is
not backed by a "struct page" which would lead to a huge slow-down if it
was used for high-frequency mapping operations. The API does not have any
effect on current setups where guest memory is backed by a "struct page".
Further patches are going to also introduce a pfn-cache which would
significantly improve the performance of the memremap case.

      KVM: Never start grow vCPU halt_poll_ns from value below halt_poll_ns_grow_start · dee339b5

      grow_halt_poll_ns() have a strange behaviour in case
(vcpu->halt_poll_ns != 0) &&
(vcpu->halt_poll_ns < halt_poll_ns_grow_start).

In this case, vcpu->halt_poll_ns will be multiplied by grow factor
(halt_poll_ns_grow) which will require several grow iteration in order
to reach a value bigger than halt_poll_ns_grow_start.
This means that growing vcpu->halt_poll_ns from value of 0 is slower
than growing it from a positive value less than halt_poll_ns_grow_start.
Which is misleading and inaccurate.

Fix issue by changing grow_halt_poll_ns() to set vcpu->halt_poll_ns
to halt_poll_ns_grow_start in any case that
(vcpu->halt_poll_ns < halt_poll_ns_grow_start).
Regardless if vcpu->halt_poll_ns is 0.

use READ_ONCE to get a consistent number for all cases.

      KVM: Expose the initial start value in grow_halt_poll_ns() as a module parameter · 49113d36
      由 Nir Weiner 提交于 
      The hard-coded value 10000 in grow_halt_poll_ns() stands for the initial
start value when raising up vcpu->halt_poll_ns.
It actually sets the first timeout to the first polling session.
This value has significant effect on how tolerant we are to outliers.
On the standard case, higher value is better - we will spend more time
in the polling busyloop, handle events/interrupts faster and result
in better performance.
But on outliers it puts us in a busy loop that does nothing.
Even if the shrink factor is zero, we will still waste time on the first
iteration.
The optimal value changes between different workloads. It depends on
outliers rate and polling sessions length.
As this value has significant effect on the dynamic halt-polling
algorithm, it should be configurable and exposed.

      KVM: Remove the hack to trigger memslot generation wraparound · 0e32958e
      由 Sean Christopherson 提交于 
      x86 captures a subset of the memslot generation (19 bits) in its MMIO
sptes so that it can expedite emulated MMIO handling by checking only
the releveant spte, i.e. doesn't need to do a full page fault walk.

Because the MMIO sptes capture only 19 bits (due to limited space in
the sptes), there is a non-zero probability that the MMIO generation
could wrap, e.g. after 500k memslot updates.  Since normal usage is
extremely unlikely to result in 500k memslot updates, a hack was added
by commit 69c9ea93 ("KVM: MMU: init kvm generation close to mmio
wrap-around value") to offset the MMIO generation in order to trigger
a wraparound, e.g. after 150 memslot updates.

When separate memslot generation sequences were assigned to each
address space, commit 00f034a1 ("KVM: do not bias the generation
number in kvm_current_mmio_generation") moved the offset logic into the
initialization of the memslot generation itself so that the per-address
space bit(s) were not dropped/corrupted by the MMIO shenanigans.

Remove the offset hack for three reasons:

  - While it does exercise x86's kvm_mmu_invalidate_mmio_sptes(), simply
    wrapping the generation doesn't actually test the interesting case
    of having stale MMIO sptes with the new generation number, e.g. old
    sptes with a generation number of 0.

  - Triggering kvm_mmu_invalidate_mmio_sptes() prematurely makes its
    performance rather important since the probability of invalidating
    MMIO sptes jumps from "effectively never" to "fairly likely".  This
    limits what can be done in future patches, e.g. to simplify the
    invalidation code, as doing so without proper caution could lead to
    a noticeable performance regression.

  - Forcing the memslots generation, which is a 64-bit number, to wrap
    prevents KVM from assuming the memslots generation will never wrap.
    This in turn prevents KVM from using an arbitrary bit for the
    "update in-progress" flag, e.g. using bit 63 would immediately
    collide with using a large value as the starting generation number.
    The "update in-progress" flag is effectively forced into bit 0 so
    that it's (subtly) taken into account when incrementing the
    generation.

      KVM: Explicitly define the "memslot update in-progress" bit · 361209e0
      由 Sean Christopherson 提交于 
      KVM uses bit 0 of the memslots generation as an "update in-progress"
flag, which is used by x86 to prevent caching MMIO access while the
memslots are changing.  Although the intended behavior is flag-like,
e.g. MMIO sptes intentionally drop the in-progress bit so as to avoid
caching data from in-flux memslots, the implementation oftentimes treats
the bit as part of the generation number itself, e.g. incrementing the
generation increments twice, once to set the flag and once to clear it.

Prior to commit 4bd518f1 ("KVM: use separate generations for
each address space"), incorporating the "update in-progress" bit into
the generation number largely made sense, e.g. "real" generations are
even, "bogus" generations are odd, most code doesn't need to be aware of
the bit, etc...

Now that unique memslots generation numbers are assigned to each address
space, stealthing the in-progress status into the generation number
results in a wide variety of subtle code, e.g. kvm_create_vm() jumps
over bit 0 when initializing the memslots generation without any hint as
to why.

Explicitly define the flag and convert as much code as possible (which
isn't much) to actually treat it like a flag.  This paves the way for
eventually using a different bit for "update in-progress" so that it can
be a flag in truth instead of a awkward extension to the generation
number.

      KVM: Call kvm_arch_memslots_updated() before updating memslots · 15248258
      由 Sean Christopherson 提交于 
      kvm_arch_memslots_updated() is at this point in time an x86-specific
hook for handling MMIO generation wraparound.  x86 stashes 19 bits of
the memslots generation number in its MMIO sptes in order to avoid
full page fault walks for repeat faults on emulated MMIO addresses.
Because only 19 bits are used, wrapping the MMIO generation number is
possible, if unlikely.  kvm_arch_memslots_updated() alerts x86 that
the generation has changed so that it can invalidate all MMIO sptes in
case the effective MMIO generation has wrapped so as to avoid using a
stale spte, e.g. a (very) old spte that was created with generation==0.

Given that the purpose of kvm_arch_memslots_updated() is to prevent
consuming stale entries, it needs to be called before the new generation
is propagated to memslots.  Invalidating the MMIO sptes after updating
memslots means that there is a window where a vCPU could dereference
the new memslots generation, e.g. 0, and incorrectly reuse an old MMIO
spte that was created with (pre-wrap) generation==0.

      kvm: Add memcg accounting to KVM allocations · b12ce36a
      由 Ben Gardon 提交于 
      There are many KVM kernel memory allocations which are tied to the life of
the VM process and should be charged to the VM process's cgroup. If the
allocations aren't tied to the process, the OOM killer will not know
that killing the process will free the associated kernel memory.
Add __GFP_ACCOUNT flags to many of the allocations which are not yet being
charged to the VM process's cgroup.

Tested:
	Ran all kvm-unit-tests on a 64 bit Haswell machine, the patch
	introduced no new failures.
	Ran a kernel memory accounting test which creates a VM to touch
	memory and then checks that the kernel memory allocated for the
	process is within certain bounds.
	With this patch we account for much more of the vmalloc and slab memory
	allocated for the VM.

There remain a few allocations which should be charged to the VM's
cgroup but are not. In they include:
        vcpu->run
        kvm->coalesced_mmio_ring
There allocations are unaccounted in this patch because they are mapped
to userspace, and accounting them to a cgroup causes problems. This
should be addressed in a future patch.

      kvm: Use struct_size() in kmalloc() · 90952cd3

      One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding
the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along
with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example:

struct foo {
    int stuff;
    void *entry[];
};

instance = kmalloc(sizeof(struct foo) + sizeof(void *) * count, GFP_KERNEL);

Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can
now use the new struct_size() helper:

instance = kmalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL);

      由 Jann Horn 提交于 
      kvm_ioctl_create_device() does the following:

1. creates a device that holds a reference to the VM object (with a borrowed
   reference, the VM's refcount has not been bumped yet)
2. initializes the device
3. transfers the reference to the device to the caller's file descriptor table
4. calls kvm_get_kvm() to turn the borrowed reference to the VM into a real
   reference

The ownership transfer in step 3 must not happen before the reference to the VM
becomes a proper, non-borrowed reference, which only happens in step 4.
After step 3, an attacker can close the file descriptor and drop the borrowed
reference, which can cause the refcount of the kvm object to drop to zero.

This means that we need to grab a reference for the device before
anon_inode_getfd(), otherwise the VM can disappear from under us.

      Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() function · 96d4f267
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.

It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access.  But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.

A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model.  And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.

This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.

There were a couple of notable cases:

 - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.

 - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
   values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
   really used it)

 - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout

but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.

I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something.  Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

      mm/mmu_notifier: use structure for invalidate_range_start/end callback · 5d6527a7
      由 Jérôme Glisse 提交于 
      Patch series "mmu notifier contextual informations", v2.

This patchset adds contextual information, why an invalidation is
happening, to mmu notifier callback.  This is necessary for user of mmu
notifier that wish to maintains their own data structure without having to
add new fields to struct vm_area_struct (vma).

For instance device can have they own page table that mirror the process
address space.  When a vma is unmap (munmap() syscall) the device driver
can free the device page table for the range.

Today we do not have any information on why a mmu notifier call back is
happening and thus device driver have to assume that it is always an
munmap().  This is inefficient at it means that it needs to re-allocate
device page table on next page fault and rebuild the whole device driver
data structure for the range.

Other use case beside munmap() also exist, for instance it is pointless
for device driver to invalidate the device page table when the
invalidation is for the soft dirtyness tracking.  Or device driver can
optimize away mprotect() that change the page table permission access for
the range.

This patchset enables all this optimizations for device drivers.  I do not
include any of those in this series but another patchset I am posting will
leverage this.

The patchset is pretty simple from a code point of view.  The first two
patches consolidate all mmu notifier arguments into a struct so that it is
easier to add/change arguments.  The last patch adds the contextual
information (munmap, protection, soft dirty, clear, ...).

This patch (of 3):

To avoid having to change many callback definition everytime we want to
add a parameter use a structure to group all parameters for the
mmu_notifier invalidate_range_start/end callback.  No functional changes
with this patch.
