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.

Regarding segments with a limit==0xffffffff, the SDM officially states:
When the effective limit is FFFFFFFFH (4 GBytes), these accesses may
or may not cause the indicated exceptions. Behavior is
implementation-specific and may vary from one execution to another.
In practice, all CPUs that support VMX ignore limit checks for "flat
segments", i.e. an expand-up data or code segment with base=0 and
limit=0xffffffff. This is subtly different than wrapping the effective
address calculation based on the address size, as the flat segment
behavior also applies to accesses that would wrap the 4g boundary, e.g.
a 4-byte access starting at 0xffffffff will access linear addresses
0xffffffff, 0x0, 0x1 and 0x2.

The address size of an instruction affects the effective address, not
the virtual/linear address. The final address may still be truncated,
e.g. to 32-bits outside of long mode, but that happens irrespective of
the address size, e.g. a 32-bit address size can yield a 64-bit virtual
address when using FS/GS with a non-zero base.

The VMCS.EXIT_QUALIFCATION field reports the displacements of memory
operands for various instructions, including VMX instructions, as a
naturally sized unsigned value, but masks the value by the addr size,
e.g. given a ModRM encoded as -0x28(%ebp), the -0x28 displacement is
reported as 0xffffffd8 for a 32-bit address size. Despite some weird
wording regarding sign extension, the SDM explicitly states that bits
beyond the instructions address size are undefined:
In all cases, bits of this field beyond the instruction’s address
size are undefined.
Failure to sign extend the displacement results in KVM incorrectly
treating a negative displacement as a large positive displacement when
the address size of the VMX instruction is smaller than KVM's native
size, e.g. a 32-bit address size on a 64-bit KVM.
The very original decoding, added by commit 064aea7747 ("KVM: nVMX:
Decoding memory operands of VMX instructions"), sort of modeled sign
extension by truncating the final virtual/linear address for a 32-bit
address size. I.e. it messed up the effective address but made it work
by adjusting the final address.
When segmentation checks were added, the truncation logic was kept
as-is and no sign extension logic was introduced. In other words, it
kept calculating the wrong effective address while mostly generating
the correct virtual/linear address. As the effective address is what's
used in the segment limit checks, this results in KVM incorreclty
injecting #GP/#SS faults due to non-existent segment violations when
a nested VMM uses negative displacements with an address size smaller
than KVM's native address size.
Using the -0x28(%ebp) example, an EBP value of 0x1000 will result in
KVM using 0x100000fd8 as the effective address when checking for a
segment limit violation. This causes a 100% failure rate when running
a 32-bit KVM build as L1 on top of a 64-bit KVM L0.

Currently, host_rsp is cached on a per-vCPU basis, i.e. it's stored in
struct vcpu_vmx. In non-nested usage the caching is for all intents
and purposes 100% effective, e.g. only the first VMLAUNCH needs to
synchronize VMCS.HOST_RSP since the call stack to vmx_vcpu_run() is
identical each and every time. But when running a nested guest, KVM
must invalidate the cache when switching the current VMCS as it can't
guarantee the new VMCS has the same HOST_RSP as the previous VMCS. In
other words, the cache loses almost all of its efficacy when running a
nested VM.
Move host_rsp to struct vmcs_host_state, which is per-VMCS, so that it
is cached on a per-VMCS basis and restores its 100% hit rate when
nested VMs are in play.
Note that the host_rsp cache for vmcs02 essentially "breaks" when
nested early checks are enabled as nested_vmx_check_vmentry_hw() will
see a different RSP at the time of its VM-Enter. While it's possible
to avoid even that VMCS.HOST_RSP synchronization, e.g. by employing a
dedicated VM-Exit stack, there is little motivation for doing so as
the overhead of two VMWRITEs (~55 cycles) is dwarfed by the overhead
of the extra VMX transition (600+ cycles) and is a proverbial drop in
the ocean relative to the total cost of a nested transtion (10s of
thousands of cycles).

Explicitly using RDX was inherited from vCPU-run, i.e. completely

doing so is more robust as vCPU-run needs tight control over its

Temporarily propagating vmx->loaded_vmcs->launched to vmx->__launched
is not functionally necessary, but rather was done historically to
avoid passing both 'vmx' and 'loaded_vmcs' to the vCPU-run asm blob.
Nested early checks inherited this behavior by virtue of copy+paste.
A future patch will move HOST_RSP caching to be per-VMCS, i.e. store
'host_rsp' in loaded VMCS. Now that the reference to 'vmx->fail' is
also gone from nested early checks, referencing 'loaded_vmcs' directly
means we can drop the 'vmx' reference when introducing per-VMCS RSP
caching. And it means __launched can be dropped from struct vcpu_vmx
if/when vCPU-run receives similar treatment.
Note the use of a named register constraint for 'loaded_vmcs'. Using
RCX to hold 'vmx' was inherited from vCPU-run. In the vCPU-run case,
the scratch register needs to be explicitly defined as it is crushed
when loading guest state, i.e. deferring to the compiler would corrupt
the pointer. Since nested early checks never loads guests state, it's
a-ok to let the compiler pick any register. Naming the constraint
avoids the fragility of referencing constraints via %1, %2, etc.., which
breaks horribly when modifying constraints, and generally makes the asm
blob more readable.

Unlike the primary vCPU-run flow, the nested early checks code doesn't
actually want to propagate VM-Fail back to 'vmx'. Yay copy+paste.
In additional to eliminating the need to clear vmx->fail before
returning, using a local boolean also drops a reference to 'vmx' in the
asm blob. Dropping the reference to 'vmx' will save a register in the
long run as future patches will shift all pointer references from 'vmx'

Nested early checks does a manual comparison of a VMCS' launched status
in its asm blob to execute the correct VM-Enter instruction, i.e.
VMLAUNCH vs. VMRESUME. The launched flag is a bool, which is a typedef
of _Bool. C99 does not define an exact size for _Bool, stating only
that is must be large enough to hold '0' and '1'. Most, if not all,
compilers use a single byte for _Bool, including gcc[1].
The use of 'cmpl' instead of 'cmpb' was not deliberate, but rather the
result of a copy-paste as the asm blob was directly derived from the asm
blob for vCPU-run.
This has not caused any known problems, likely due to compilers aligning
variables to 4-byte or 8-byte boundaries and KVM zeroing out struct
vcpu_vmx during allocation. I.e. vCPU-run accesses "junk" data, it just
happens to always be zero and so doesn't affect the result.

Transitioning to/from a VMX guest requires KVM to manually save/load
the bulk of CPU state that the guest is allowed to direclty access,
e.g. XSAVE state, CR2, GPRs, etc... For obvious reasons, loading the
guest's GPR snapshot prior to VM-Enter and saving the snapshot after
VM-Exit is done via handcoded assembly. The assembly blob is written
as inline asm so that it can easily access KVM-defined structs that
are used to hold guest state, e.g. moving the blob to a standalone
assembly file would require generating defines for struct offsets.
The other relevant aspect of VMX transitions in KVM is the handling of
VM-Exits. KVM doesn't employ a separate VM-Exit handler per se, but
rather treats the VMX transition as a mega instruction (with many side
effects), i.e. sets the VMCS.HOST_RIP to a label immediately following
VMLAUNCH/VMRESUME. The label is then exposed to C code via a global
variable definition in the inline assembly.
Because of the global variable, KVM takes steps to (attempt to) ensure
only a single instance of the owning C function, e.g. vmx_vcpu_run, is
generated by the compiler. The earliest approach placed the inline
assembly in a separate noinline function[1]. Later, the assembly was
folded back into vmx_vcpu_run() and tagged with __noclone[2][3], which
is still used today.
After moving to __noclone, an edge case was encountered where GCC's
-ftracer optimization resulted in the inline assembly blob being
duplicated. This was "fixed" by explicitly disabling -ftracer in the
__noclone definition[4].
Recently, it was found that disabling -ftracer causes build warnings
for unsuspecting users of __noclone[5], and more importantly for KVM,
prevents the compiler for properly optimizing vmx_vcpu_run()[6]. And
perhaps most importantly of all, it was pointed out that there is no
way to prevent duplication of a function with 100% reliability[7],
i.e. more edge cases may be encountered in the future.
So to summarize, the only way to prevent the compiler from duplicating
the global variable definition is to move the variable out of inline
assembly, which has been suggested several times over[1][7][8].
Resolve the aforementioned issues by moving the VMLAUNCH+VRESUME and
VM-Exit "handler" to standalone assembly sub-routines. Moving only
the core VMX transition codes allows the struct indexing to remain as
inline assembly and also allows the sub-routines to be used by
nested_vmx_check_vmentry_hw(). Reusing the sub-routines has a happy
side-effect of eliminating two VMWRITEs in the nested_early_check path
as there is no longer a need to dynamically change VMCS.HOST_RIP.
Note that callers to vmx_vmenter() must account for the CALL modifying
RSP, e.g. must subtract op-size from RSP when synchronizing RSP with
VMCS.HOST_RSP and "restore" RSP prior to the CALL. There are no great
alternatives to fudging RSP. Saving RSP in vmx_enter() is difficult
because doing so requires a second register (VMWRITE does not provide
an immediate encoding for the VMCS field and KVM supports Hyper-V's
memory-based eVMCS ABI). The other more drastic alternative would be
to use eschew VMCS.HOST_RSP and manually save/load RSP using a per-cpu
variable (which can be encoded as e.g. gs:[imm]). But because a valid
stack is needed at the time of VM-Exit (NMIs aren't blocked and a user
could theoretically insert INT3/INT1ICEBRK at the VM-Exit handler), a
dedicated per-cpu VM-Exit stack would be required. A dedicated stack
isn't difficult to implement, but it would require at least one page
per CPU and knowledge of the stack in the dumpstack routines. And in
most cases there is essentially zero overhead in dynamically updating
VMCS.HOST_RSP, e.g. the VMWRITE can be avoided for all but the first
VMLAUNCH unless nested_early_check=1, which is not a fast path. In
other words, avoiding the VMCS.HOST_RSP by using a dedicated stack
would only make the code marginally less ugly while requiring at least
one page per CPU and forcing the kernel to be aware (and approve) of
the VM-Exit stack shenanigans.

Use '%% " _ASM_CX"' instead of '%0' to dereference RCX, i.e. the
'struct vcpu_vmx' pointer, in the VM-Enter asm blobs of vmx_vcpu_run()
and nested_vmx_check_vmentry_hw(). Using the symbolic name means that
adding/removing an output parameter(s) requires "rewriting" almost all
of the asm blob, which makes it nearly impossible to understand what's
being changed in even the most minor patches.
Opportunistically improve the code comments.

Currently, Intel Processor Trace do not support tracing in L1 guest
VMX operation(IA32_VMX_MISC[bit 14] is 0). As mentioned in SDM,
on these type of processors, execution of the VMXON instruction will
clears IA32_RTIT_CTL.TraceEn and any attempt to write IA32_RTIT_CTL
causes a general-protection exception (#GP).

According to the SDM, "NMI-window exiting" VM-exits wake a logical
processor from the same inactive states as would an NMI and
"interrupt-window exiting" VM-exits wake a logical processor from the
same inactive states as would an external interrupt. Specifically, they
wake a logical processor from the shutdown state and from the states
entered using the HLT and MWAIT instructions.

Passing the enum and doing an indirect lookup is silly when we can
simply pass the field directly. Remove the "fast path" code in
nested_vmx_check_msr_switch_controls() as it's now nothing more than a
redundant check.
Remove the debug message rather than continue passing the enum for the
address field. Having debug messages for the MSRs themselves is useful
as MSR legality is a huge space, whereas messing up a physical address
means the VMM is fundamentally broken.

From a functional perspective, this is (supposed to be) a straight
copy-paste of code. Code was moved piecemeal to nested.c as not all
code that could/should be moved was obviously nested-only. The nested
code was then re-ordered as needed to compile, i.e. stats may not show
this is being a "pure" move despite there not being any intended changes
in functionality.
