* Fixes for Xen emulation
* Kill kvm_map_gfn() / kvm_unmap_gfn() and broken gfn_to_pfn_cache
* Fixes for migration of 32-bit nested guests on 64-bit hypervisor
* Compilation fixes
* More SEV cleanups
In commit 7e2175ebd6 ("KVM: x86: Fix recording of guest steal time /
preempted status") I removed the only user of these functions because
it was basically impossible to use them safely.
There are two stages to the GFN->PFN mapping; first through the KVM
memslots to a userspace HVA and then through the page tables to
translate that HVA to an underlying PFN. Invalidations of the former
were being handled correctly, but no attempt was made to use the MMU
notifiers to invalidate the cache when the HVA->GFN mapping changed.
As a prelude to reinventing the gfn_to_pfn_cache with more usable
semantics, rip it out entirely and untangle the implementation of
the unsafe kvm_vcpu_map()/kvm_vcpu_unmap() functions from it.
All current users of kvm_vcpu_map() also look broken right now, and
will be dealt with separately. They broadly fall into two classes:
* Those which map, access the data and immediately unmap. This is
mostly gratuitous and could just as well use the existing user
HVA, and could probably benefit from a gfn_to_hva_cache as they
do so.
* Those which keep the mapping around for a longer time, perhaps
even using the PFN directly from the guest. These will need to
be converted to the new gfn_to_pfn_cache and then kvm_vcpu_map()
can be removed too.

By switching from kfree() to kvfree() in kvm_arch_free_vm() Arm64 can
use the common variant. This can be accomplished by adding another
macro __KVM_HAVE_ARCH_VM_FREE, which will be used only by x86 for now.
Further simplification can be achieved by adding __kvm_arch_free_vm()

All of the irqfds would to be updated when update the irq
routing, it's too expensive if there're too many irqfds.
However we can reduce the cost by avoid some unnecessary
updates. For irqs of MSI type on X86, the update can be
saved if the msi values are not change.
The vfio migration could receives benefit from this optimi-
zaiton. The test VM has 128 vcpus and 8 VF (with 65 vectors
enabled), so the VM has more than 520 irqfds. We mesure the
cost of the vfio_msix_enable (in QEMU, it would set routing
for each irqfd) for each VF, and we can see the total cost
can be significantly reduced.

kvm_make_vcpus_request_mask() already disables preemption so just like
kvm_make_all_cpus_request_except() it can be switched to using
pre-allocated per-cpu cpumasks. This allows for improvements for both
users of the function: in Hyper-V emulation code 'tlb_flush' can now be
dropped from 'struct kvm_vcpu_hv' and kvm_make_scan_ioapic_request_mask()
gets rid of dynamic allocation.
cpumask_available() checks in kvm_make_vcpu_request() and
kvm_kick_many_cpus() can now be dropped as they checks for an impossible
condition: kvm_init() makes sure per-cpu masks are allocated.

Read vcpu->vcpu_idx directly instead of bouncing through the one-line
wrapper, kvm_vcpu_get_idx(), and drop the wrapper. The wrapper is a
remnant of the original implementation and serves no purpose; remove it
before it gains more users.
Back when kvm_vcpu_get_idx() was added by commit 497d72d80a ("KVM: Add
kvm_vcpu_get_idx to get vcpu index in kvm->vcpus"), the implementation
was more than just a simple wrapper as vcpu->vcpu_idx did not exist and
retrieving the index meant walking over the vCPU array to find the given
vCPU.
When vcpu_idx was introduced by commit 8750e72a79 ("KVM: remember
position in kvm->vcpus array"), the helper was left behind, likely to
avoid extra thrash (but even then there were only two users, the original
arm usage having been removed at some point in the past).
No functional change intended.

The memslot for a given gfn is looked up multiple times during page
fault handling. Avoid binary searching for it multiple times by caching
the most recently used slot. There is an existing VM-wide last_used_slot
but that does not work well for cases where vCPUs are accessing memory
in different slots (see performance data below).
Another benefit of caching the most recently use slot (versus looking
up the slot once and passing around a pointer) is speeding up memslot
lookups *across* faults and during spte prefetching.
To measure the performance of this change I ran dirty_log_perf_test with
64 vCPUs and 64 memslots and measured "Populate memory time" and
"Iteration 2 dirty memory time". Tests were ran with eptad=N to force
dirty logging to use fast_page_fault so its performance could be
measured.
Config | Metric | Before | After
---------- | ----------------------------- | ------ | ------
tdp_mmu=Y | Populate memory time | 6.76s | 5.47s
tdp_mmu=Y | Iteration 2 dirty memory time | 2.83s | 0.31s
tdp_mmu=N | Populate memory time | 20.4s | 18.7s
tdp_mmu=N | Iteration 2 dirty memory time | 2.65s | 0.30s
The "Iteration 2 dirty memory time" results are especially compelling
because they are equivalent to running the same test with a single
memslot. In other words, fast_page_fault performance no longer scales
with the number of memslots.

We would like to avoid taking mmu_lock for .invalidate_range_{start,end}()
notifications that are unrelated to KVM. Because mmu_notifier_count
must be modified while holding mmu_lock for write, and must always
be paired across start->end to stay balanced, lock elision must
happen in both or none. Therefore, in preparation for this change,
this patch prevents memslot updates across range_start() and range_end().
Note, technically flag-only memslot updates could be allowed in parallel,
but stalling a memslot update for a relatively short amount of time is
not a scalability issue, and this is all more than complex enough.
A long note on the locking: a previous version of the patch used an rwsem
to block the memslot update while the MMU notifier run, but this resulted
in the following deadlock involving the pseudo-lock tagged as
"mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start".
======================================================
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
5.12.0-rc3+ #6 Tainted: G OE
------------------------------------------------------
qemu-system-x86/3069 is trying to acquire lock:
ffffffff9c775ca0 (mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start){+.+.}-{0:0}, at: __mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end+0x5/0x190
but task is already holding lock:
ffffaff7410a9160 (&kvm->mmu_notifier_slots_lock){.+.+}-{3:3}, at: kvm_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start+0x36d/0x4f0 [kvm]
which lock already depends on the new lock.
This corresponds to the following MMU notifier logic:
invalidate_range_start
take pseudo lock
down_read() (*)
release pseudo lock
invalidate_range_end
take pseudo lock (**)
up_read()
release pseudo lock
At point (*) we take the mmu_notifiers_slots_lock inside the pseudo lock;
at point (**) we take the pseudo lock inside the mmu_notifiers_slots_lock.
This could cause a deadlock (ignoring for a second that the pseudo lock
is not a lock):
- invalidate_range_start waits on down_read(), because the rwsem is
held by install_new_memslots
- install_new_memslots waits on down_write(), because the rwsem is
held till (another) invalidate_range_end finishes
- invalidate_range_end sits waits on the pseudo lock, held by
invalidate_range_start.
Removing the fairness of the rwsem breaks the cycle (in lockdep terms,
it would change the *shared* rwsem readers into *shared recursive*
readers), so open-code the wait using a readers count and a
spinlock. This also allows handling blockable and non-blockable
critical section in the same way.
Losing the rwsem fairness does theoretically allow MMU notifiers to
block install_new_memslots forever. Note that mm/mmu_notifier.c's own
retry scheme in mmu_interval_read_begin also uses wait/wake_up
and is likewise not fair.

This commit defines the API for userspace and prepare the common
functionalities to support per VM/VCPU binary stats data readings.
The KVM stats now is only accessible by debugfs, which has some
shortcomings this change series are supposed to fix:
1. The current debugfs stats solution in KVM could be disabled
when kernel Lockdown mode is enabled, which is a potential
rick for production.
2. The current debugfs stats solution in KVM is organized as "one
stats per file", it is good for debugging, but not efficient
for production.
3. The stats read/clear in current debugfs solution in KVM are
protected by the global kvm_lock.
Besides that, there are some other benefits with this change:
1. All KVM VM/VCPU stats can be read out in a bulk by one copy
to userspace.
2. A schema is used to describe KVM statistics. From userspace's
perspective, the KVM statistics are self-describing.
3. With the fd-based solution, a separate telemetry would be able
to read KVM stats in a less privileged environment.
4. After the initial setup by reading in stats descriptors, a
telemetry only needs to read the stats data itself, no more
parsing or setup is needed.

KVM's mechanism for accessing guest memory translates a guest physical
address (gpa) to a host virtual address using the right-shifted gpa
(also known as gfn) and a struct kvm_memory_slot. The translation is
performed in __gfn_to_hva_memslot using the following formula:
hva = slot->userspace_addr + (gfn - slot->base_gfn) * PAGE_SIZE
It is expected that gfn falls within the boundaries of the guest's
physical memory. However, a guest can access invalid physical addresses
in such a way that the gfn is invalid.
__gfn_to_hva_memslot is called from kvm_vcpu_gfn_to_hva_prot, which first
retrieves a memslot through __gfn_to_memslot. While __gfn_to_memslot
does check that the gfn falls within the boundaries of the guest's
physical memory or not, a CPU can speculate the result of the check and
continue execution speculatively using an illegal gfn. The speculation
can result in calculating an out-of-bounds hva. If the resulting host
virtual address is used to load another guest physical address, this
is effectively a Spectre gadget consisting of two consecutive reads,
the second of which is data dependent on the first.
Right now it's not clear if there are any cases in which this is
exploitable. One interesting case was reported by the original author
of this patch, and involves visiting guest page tables on x86. Right
now these are not vulnerable because the hva read goes through get_user(),
which contains an LFENCE speculation barrier. However, there are
patches in progress for x86 uaccess.h to mask kernel addresses instead of
using LFENCE; once these land, a guest could use speculation to read
from the VMM's ring 3 address space. Other architectures such as ARM
already use the address masking method, and would be susceptible to
this same kind of data-dependent access gadgets. Therefore, this patch
proactively protects from these attacks by masking out-of-bounds gfns
in __gfn_to_hva_memslot, which blocks speculation of invalid hvas.
Sean Christopherson noted that this patch does not cover
kvm_read_guest_offset_cached. This however is limited to a few bytes
past the end of the cache, and therefore it is unlikely to be useful in
the context of building a chain of data dependent accesses.

This is inspired by commit 262de4102c (kvm: exit halt polling on
need_resched() as well). Due to PPC implements an arch specific halt
polling logic, we have to the need_resched() check there as well. This
patch adds a helper function that can be shared between book3s and generic
halt-polling loops.

Both lock holder vCPU and IPI receiver that has halted are condidate for
boost. However, the PLE handler was originally designed to deal with the
lock holder preemption problem. The Intel PLE occurs when the spinlock
waiter is in kernel mode. This assumption doesn't hold for IPI receiver,
they can be in either kernel or user mode. the vCPU candidate in user mode
will not be boosted even if they should respond to IPIs. Some benchmarks
like pbzip2, swaptions etc do the TLB shootdown in kernel mode and most
of the time they are running in user mode. It can lead to a large number
of continuous PLE events because the IPI sender causes PLE events
repeatedly until the receiver is scheduled while the receiver is not
candidate for a boost.
This patch boosts the vCPU candidiate in user mode which is delivery
interrupt. We can observe the speed of pbzip2 improves 10% in 96 vCPUs
VM in over-subscribe scenario (The host machine is 2 socket, 48 cores,
96 HTs Intel CLX box). There is no performance regression for other
benchmarks like Unixbench spawn (most of the time contend read/write
lock in kernel mode), ebizzy (most of the time contend read/write sem
and TLB shoodtdown in kernel mode).

Add a capability for userspace to mirror SEV encryption context from
one vm to another. On our side, this is intended to support a
Migration Helper vCPU, but it can also be used generically to support
other in-guest workloads scheduled by the host. The intention is for
the primary guest and the mirror to have nearly identical memslots.
The primary benefits of this are that:
1) The VMs do not share KVM contexts (think APIC/MSRs/etc), so they
can't accidentally clobber each other.
2) The VMs can have different memory-views, which is necessary for post-copy
migration (the migration vCPUs on the target need to read and write to
pages, when the primary guest would VMEXIT).
This does not change the threat model for AMD SEV. Any memory involved
is still owned by the primary guest and its initial state is still
attested to through the normal SEV_LAUNCH_* flows. If userspace wanted
to circumvent SEV, they could achieve the same effect by simply attaching
a vCPU to the primary VM.
This patch deliberately leaves userspace in charge of the memslots for the
mirror, as it already has the power to mess with them in the primary guest.
This patch does not support SEV-ES (much less SNP), as it does not
handle handing off attested VMSAs to the mirror.
For additional context, we need a Migration Helper because SEV PSP
migration is far too slow for our live migration on its own. Using
an in-guest migrator lets us speed this up significantly.

Abort the walk of coalesced MMIO zones if kvm_io_bus_unregister_dev()
fails to allocate memory for the new instance of the bus. If it can't
instantiate a new bus, unregister_dev() destroys all devices _except_ the
target device. But, it doesn't tell the caller that it obliterated the
bus and invoked the destructor for all devices that were on the bus. In
the coalesced MMIO case, this can result in a deleted list entry
dereference due to attempting to continue iterating on coalesced_zones
after future entries (in the walk) have been deleted.
Opportunistically add curly braces to the for-loop, which encompasses
many lines but sneaks by without braces due to the guts being a single
if statement.

Move the hva->gfn lookup for MMU notifiers into common code. Every arch
does a similar lookup, and some arch code is all but identical across
multiple architectures.
In addition to consolidating code, this will allow introducing
optimizations that will benefit all architectures without incurring
multiple walks of the memslots, e.g. by taking mmu_lock if and only if a
relevant range exists in the memslots.
The use of __always_inline to avoid indirect call retpolines, as done by
x86, may also benefit other architectures.
Consolidating the lookups also fixes a wart in x86, where the legacy MMU
and TDP MMU each do their own memslot walks.
Lastly, future enhancements to the memslot implementation, e.g. to add an
interval tree to track host address, will need to touch far less arch
specific code.
MIPS, PPC, and arm64 will be converted one at a time in future patches.

Track the range being invalidated by mmu_notifier and skip page fault
retries if the fault address is not affected by the in-progress
invalidation. Handle concurrent invalidations by finding the minimal
range which includes all ranges being invalidated. Although the combined
range may include unrelated addresses and cannot be shrunk as individual
invalidation operations complete, it is unlikely the marginal gains of
proper range tracking are worth the additional complexity.
The primary benefit of this change is the reduction in the likelihood of
extreme latency when handing a page fault due to another thread having
been preempted while modifying host virtual addresses.

Current KVM_USER_MEM_SLOTS limits are arch specific (512 on Power, 509 on x86,
32 on s390, 16 on MIPS) but they don't really need to be. Memory slots are
allocated dynamically in KVM when added so the only real limitation is
'id_to_index' array which is 'short'. We don't have any other
KVM_MEM_SLOTS_NUM/KVM_USER_MEM_SLOTS-sized statically defined structures.
Low KVM_USER_MEM_SLOTS can be a limiting factor for some configurations.
In particular, when QEMU tries to start a Windows guest with Hyper-V SynIC
enabled and e.g. 256 vCPUs the limit is hit as SynIC requires two pages per
vCPU and the guest is free to pick any GFN for each of them, this fragments
memslots as QEMU wants to have a separate memslot for each of these pages
(which are supposed to act as 'overlay' pages).

Because kvm dirty rings and kvm dirty log is used in an exclusive way,
Let's avoid creating the dirty_bitmap when kvm dirty ring is enabled.
At the meantime, since the dirty_bitmap will be conditionally created
now, we can't use it as a sign of "whether this memory slot enabled
dirty tracking". Change users like that to check against the kvm
memory slot flags.
Note that there still can be chances where the kvm memory slot got its
dirty_bitmap allocated, _if_ the memory slots are created before
enabling of the dirty rings and at the same time with the dirty
tracking capability enabled, they'll still with the dirty_bitmap.
However it should not hurt much (e.g., the bitmaps will always be
freed if they are there), and the real users normally won't trigger
this because dirty bit tracking flag should in most cases only be
applied to kvm slots only before migration starts, that should be far
latter than kvm initializes (VM starts).

This patch is heavily based on previous work from Lei Cao
<lei.cao@stratus.com> and Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>. [1]
KVM currently uses large bitmaps to track dirty memory. These bitmaps
are copied to userspace when userspace queries KVM for its dirty page
information. The use of bitmaps is mostly sufficient for live
migration, as large parts of memory are be dirtied from one log-dirty
pass to another. However, in a checkpointing system, the number of
dirty pages is small and in fact it is often bounded---the VM is
paused when it has dirtied a pre-defined number of pages. Traversing a
large, sparsely populated bitmap to find set bits is time-consuming,
as is copying the bitmap to user-space.
A similar issue will be there for live migration when the guest memory
is huge while the page dirty procedure is trivial. In that case for
each dirty sync we need to pull the whole dirty bitmap to userspace
and analyse every bit even if it's mostly zeros.
The preferred data structure for above scenarios is a dense list of
guest frame numbers (GFN). This patch series stores the dirty list in
kernel memory that can be memory mapped into userspace to allow speedy
harvesting.
This patch enables dirty ring for X86 only. However it should be
easily extended to other archs as well.
