Percpu allocator now supports allocation mask. Add @gfp to
percpu_counter_init() so that !GFP_KERNEL allocation masks can be used
with percpu_counters too.
We could have left percpu_counter_init() alone and added
percpu_counter_init_gfp(); however, the number of users isn't that
high and introducing _gfp variants to all percpu data structures would
be quite ugly, so let's just do the conversion. This is the one with
the most users. Other percpu data structures are a lot easier to
convert.
This patch doesn't make any functional difference.

Currently, if a permission error happens during the translation of
the final GPA to HPA, walk_addr_generic returns 0 but does not fill
in walker->fault. To avoid this, add an x86_exception* argument
to the translate_gpa function, and let it fill in walker->fault.
The nested_page_fault field will be true, since the walk_mmu is the
nested_mmu and translate_gpu instead operates on the "outer" (NPT)
instance.

The following events can lead to an incorrect KVM_EXIT_MMIO bubbling
up to userspace:
(1) Guest accesses gpa X without a memory slot. The gfn is cached in
struct kvm_vcpu_arch (mmio_gfn). On Intel EPT-enabled hosts, KVM sets
the SPTE write-execute-noread so that future accesses cause
EPT_MISCONFIGs.
(2) Host userspace creates a memory slot via KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION
covering the page just accessed.
(3) Guest attempts to read or write to gpa X again. On Intel, this
generates an EPT_MISCONFIG. The memory slot generation number that
was incremented in (2) would normally take care of this but we fast
path mmio faults through quickly_check_mmio_pf(), which only checks
the per-vcpu mmio cache. Since we hit the cache, KVM passes a
KVM_EXIT_MMIO up to userspace.
This patch fixes the issue by using the memslot generation number
to validate the mmio cache.

vcpu exits and memslot mutations can run concurrently as long as the
vcpu does not aquire the slots mutex. Thus it is theoretically possible
for memslots to change underneath a vcpu that is handling an exit.
If we increment the memslot generation number again after
synchronize_srcu_expedited(), vcpus can safely cache memslot generation
without maintaining a single rcu_dereference through an entire vm exit.
And much of the x86/kvm code does not maintain a single rcu_dereference
of the current memslots during each exit.
We can prevent the following case:
vcpu (CPU 0) | thread (CPU 1)
--------------------------------------------+--------------------------
1 vm exit |
2 srcu_read_unlock(&kvm->srcu) |
3 decide to cache something based on |
old memslots |
4 | change memslots
| (increments generation)
5 | synchronize_srcu(&kvm->srcu);
6 retrieve generation # from new memslots |
7 tag cache with new memslot generation |
8 srcu_read_unlock(&kvm->srcu) |
... |
<action based on cache occurs even |
though the caching decision was based |
on the old memslots> |
... |
<action *continues* to occur until next |
memslot generation change, which may |
be never> |
|
By incrementing the generation after synchronizing with kvm->srcu readers,
we ensure that the generation retrieved in (6) will become invalid soon
after (8).
Keeping the existing increment is not strictly necessary, but we
do keep it and just move it for consistency from update_memslots to
install_new_memslots. It invalidates old cached MMIOs immediately,
instead of having to wait for the end of synchronize_srcu_expedited,
which makes the code more clearly correct in case CPU 1 is preempted
right after synchronize_srcu() returns.
To avoid halving the generation space in SPTEs, always presume that the
low bit of the generation is zero when reconstructing a generation number
out of an SPTE. This effectively disables MMIO caching in SPTEs during
the call to synchronize_srcu_expedited. Using the low bit this way is
somewhat like a seqcount---where the protected thing is a cache, and
instead of retrying we can simply punt if we observe the low bit to be 1.

Currently, kvm zaps the large spte if write-protected is needed, the later
read can fault on that spte. Actually, we can make the large spte readonly
instead of making them un-present, the page fault caused by read access can
be avoided
The idea is from Avi:
| As I mentioned before, write-protecting a large spte is a good idea,
| since it moves some work from protect-time to fault-time, so it reduces
| jitter. This removes the need for the return value.
This version has fixed the issue reported in 6b73a9606, the reason of that
issue is that fast_page_fault() directly sets the readonly large spte to
writable but only dirty the first page into the dirty-bitmap that means
other pages are missed. Fixed it by only the normal sptes (on the

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

Then, we need to switch back and forth between this nested context and the

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.

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

kvm_zap_obsolete_pages uses lock-break technique to zap pages,
it will flush tlb every time when it does lock-break
We can reload mmu on all vcpus after updating the generation

are zapped
It will do kvm_mmu_prepare_zap_page many times and use one

is that causes obsolete pages unlinked from active_list but leave

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

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.

I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived
list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)
The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:
hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)
Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.
Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:
- Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
- Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
- A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
- Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

If the userspace starts dirty logging for a large slot, say 64GB of
memory, kvm_mmu_slot_remove_write_access() needs to hold mmu_lock for
a long time such as tens of milliseconds. This patch controls the lock
hold time by asking the scheduler if we need to reschedule for others.
One penalty for this is that we need to flush TLBs before releasing
mmu_lock. But since holding mmu_lock for a long time does affect not
only the guest, vCPU threads in other words, but also the host as a
whole, we should pay for that.
In practice, the cost will not be so high because we can protect a fair
amount of memory before being rescheduled: on my test environment,
cond_resched_lock() was called only once for protecting 12GB of memory
even without THP. We can also revisit Avi's "unlocked TLB flush" work
later for completely suppressing extra TLB flushes if needed.

This makes it possible to release mmu_lock and reschedule conditionally
in a later patch. Although this may increase the time needed to protect
the whole slot when we start dirty logging, the kernel should not allow
the userspace to trigger something that will hold a spinlock for such a
long time as tens of milliseconds: actually there is no limit since it
is roughly proportional to the number of guest pages.
Another point to note is that this patch removes the only user of
slot_bitmap which will cause some problems when we increase the number
of slots further.

If the write-fault access is from supervisor and CR0.WP is not set on the
vcpu, kvm will fix it by adjusting pte access - it sets the W bit on pte
and clears U bit. This is the chance that kvm can change pte access from
readonly to writable
Unfortunately, the pte access is the access of 'direct' shadow page table,
means direct sp.role.access = pte_access, then we will create a writable
spte entry on the readonly shadow page table. It will cause Dirty bit is
not tracked when two guest ptes point to the same large page. Note, it
does not have other impact except Dirty bit since cr0.wp is encoded into
sp.role
It can be fixed by adjusting pte access before establishing shadow page
table. Also, after that, no mmu specified code exists in the common function
and drop two parameters in set_spte

There are two cases we need to adjust page size in set_spte:
1): the one is other vcpu creates new sp in the window between mapping_level()
and acquiring mmu-lock.
2): the another case is the new sp is created by itself (page-fault path) when
guest uses the target gfn as its page table.
In current code, set_spte drop the spte and emulate the access for these case,
it works not good:
- for the case 1, it may destroy the mapping established by other vcpu, and
do expensive instruction emulation.
- for the case 2, it may emulate the access even if the guest is accessing
the page which not used as page table. There is a example, 0~2M is used as
huge page in guest, in this huge page, only page 3 used as page table, then
guest read/writes on other pages can cause instruction emulation.
Both of these cases can be fixed by allowing guest to retry the access, it
will refault, then we can establish the mapping by using small page

Optimize this away by precalculating all variants and storing them in a

The permission check is moved to the end of the loop, otherwise an SMEP

gpte_access() computes the access permissions of a guest pte and also
write-protects clean gptes. This is wrong when we are servicing a
write fault (since we'll be setting the dirty bit momentarily) but
correct when instantiating a speculative spte, or when servicing a
read fault (since we'll want to trap a following write in order to
set the dirty bit).
It doesn't seem to hurt in practice, but in order to make the code
readable, push the write protection out of gpte_access() and into
a new protect_clean_gpte() which is called explicitly when needed.

Although the possible race described in
commit 85b7059169
KVM: MMU: fix shrinking page from the empty mmu
was correct, the real cause of that issue was a more trivial bug of
mmu_shrink() introduced by
commit 1952639665
KVM: MMU: do not iterate over all VMs in mmu_shrink()
Here is the bug:
if (kvm->arch.n_used_mmu_pages > 0) {
if (!nr_to_scan--)
break;
continue;
}
We skip VMs whose n_used_mmu_pages is not zero and try to shrink others:
in other words we try to shrink empty ones by mistake.
This patch reverses the logic so that mmu_shrink() can free pages from
the first VM whose n_used_mmu_pages is not zero. Note that we also add
comments explaining the role of nr_to_scan which is not practically
important now, hoping this will be improved in the future.

In current code, if we map a readonly memory space from host to guest
and the page is not currently mapped in the host, we will get a fault
pfn and async is not allowed, then the vm will crash
We introduce readonly memory region to map ROM/ROMD to the guest, read access
is happy for readonly memslot, write access on readonly memslot will cause
KVM_EXIT_MMIO exit
