Commit fb341f57 removed the pte prefetch on guest invlpg, citing guest races. However, the SDM is adamant that prefetch is allowed: "The processor may create entries in paging-structure caches for translations required for prefetches and for accesses that are a result of speculative execution that would never actually occur in the executed code path." And, in fact, there was a race in the prefetch code: we picked up the pte without the mmu lock held, so an older invlpg could install the pte over a newer invlpg. Reinstate the prefetch logic, but this time note whether another invlpg has executed using a counter. If a race occured, do not install the pte.

The update_pte() path currently uses a nontrapping spte when a nonpresent (or nonaccessed) gpte is written. This is fine since at present it is only used on sync pages. However, on an unsync page this will cause an endless fault loop as the guest is under no obligation to invlpg a gpte that transitions from nonpresent to present. Needed for the next patch which reinstates update_pte() on invlpg. Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NMarcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>

Currently when x86 emulator needs to access memory, page walk is done with broadest permission possible, so if emulated instruction was executed by userspace process it can still access kernel memory.

There are two spellings of "writable" in arch/x86/kvm/mmu.c and paging_tmpl.h . This patch renames is_writeble_pte() to is_writable_pte() and makes grepping easy.

The invlpg prefault optimization breaks Windows 2008 R2 occasionally. The visible effect is that the invlpg handler instantiates a pte which is, microseconds later, written with a different gfn by another vcpu. The OS could have other mechanisms to prevent a present translation from being used, which the hypervisor is unaware of. While the documentation states that the cpu is at liberty to prefetch tlb entries, it looks like this is not heeded, so remove tlb prefetch from invlpg.

由 Andrea Arcangeli 提交于
When kvm emulates an invlpg instruction, it can drop a shadow pte, but leaves the guest tlbs intact. This can cause memory corruption when swapping out. Without this the other cpu can still write to a freed host physical page. tlb smp flush must happen if rmap_remove is called always before mmu_lock is released because the VM will take the mmu_lock before it can finally add the page to the freelist after swapout. mmu notifier makes it safe to flush the tlb after freeing the page (otherwise it would never be safe) so we can do a single flush for multiple sptes invalidated.

It is possible for a shadow page to have a parent link pointing to a freed page. When zapping a high level table, kvm_mmu_page_unlink_children fails to remove the parent_pte link. For that to happen, the child must be unreachable via the shadow tree, which can happen in shadow_walk_entry if the guest pte was modified in between walk() and fetch(). Remove the parent pte reference in such case. Possible cause for oops in bug #2217430. Signed-off-by: NMarcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NAvi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

Allow guest pagetables to go out of sync. Instead of emulating write accesses to guest pagetables, or unshadowing them, we un-write-protect the page table and allow the guest to modify it at will.
