KVM/arm64 updates for Linux 5.13
New features:
- Stage-2 isolation for the host kernel when running in protected mode
- Guest SVE support when running in nVHE mode
- Force W^X hypervisor mappings in nVHE mode
- ITS save/restore for guests using direct injection with GICv4.1
- nVHE panics now produce readable backtraces
- Guest support for PTP using the ptp_kvm driver
- Performance improvements in the S2 fault handler
- Alexandru is now a reviewer (not really a new feature...)
Fixes:
- Proper emulation of the GICR_TYPER register
- Handle the complete set of relocation in the nVHE EL2 object
- Get rid of the oprofile dependency in the PMU code (and of the
oprofile body parts at the same time)
- Debug and SPE fixes
- Fix vcpu reset
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.

Add a capability, KVM_CAP_SGX_ATTRIBUTE, that can be used by userspace
to grant a VM access to a priveleged attribute, with args[0] holding a
file handle to a valid SGX attribute file.
The SGX subsystem restricts access to a subset of enclave attributes to
provide additional security for an uncompromised kernel, e.g. to prevent
malware from using the PROVISIONKEY to ensure its nodes are running
inside a geniune SGX enclave and/or to obtain a stable fingerprint.
To prevent userspace from circumventing such restrictions by running an
enclave in a VM, KVM restricts guest access to privileged attributes by
default.

This is how Xen guests do steal time accounting. The hypervisor records
the amount of time spent in each of running/runnable/blocked/offline
states.
In the Xen accounting, a vCPU is still in state RUNSTATE_running while
in Xen for a hypercall or I/O trap, etc. Only if Xen explicitly schedules
does the state become RUNSTATE_blocked. In KVM this means that even when
the vCPU exits the kvm_run loop, the state remains RUNSTATE_running.
The VMM can explicitly set the vCPU to RUNSTATE_blocked by using the
KVM_XEN_VCPU_ATTR_TYPE_RUNSTATE_CURRENT attribute, and can also use
KVM_XEN_VCPU_ATTR_TYPE_RUNSTATE_ADJUST to retrospectively add a given
amount of time to the blocked state and subtract it from the running
state.
The state_entry_time corresponds to get_kvmclock_ns() at the time the
vCPU entered the current state, and the total times of all four states
should always add up to state_entry_time.

Introduce KVM_CAP_PPC_DAWR1 which can be used by QEMU to query whether
KVM supports 2nd DAWR or not. The capability is by default disabled
even when the underlying CPU supports 2nd DAWR. QEMU needs to check
and enable it manually to use the feature.

It turns out that we can't handle event channels *entirely* in userspace
by delivering them as ExtINT, because KVM is a bit picky about when it
accepts ExtINT interrupts from a legacy PIC. The in-kernel local APIC
has to have LVT0 configured in APIC_MODE_EXTINT and unmasked, which
isn't necessarily the case for Xen guests especially on secondary CPUs.
To cope with this, add kvm_xen_get_interrupt() which checks the
evtchn_pending_upcall field in the Xen vcpu_info, and delivers the Xen
upcall vector (configured by KVM_XEN_ATTR_TYPE_UPCALL_VECTOR) if it's
set regardless of LAPIC LVT0 configuration. This gives us the minimum
support we need for completely userspace-based implementation of event
channels.
This does mean that vcpu_enter_guest() needs to check for the
evtchn_pending_upcall flag being set, because it can't rely on someone
having set KVM_REQ_EVENT unless we were to add some way for userspace to
do so manually.

Allow the Xen emulated guest the ability to register secondary
vcpu time information. On Xen guests this is used in order to be

Add a new exit reason for emulator to handle Xen hypercalls.
Since this means KVM owns the ABI, dispense with the facility for the
VMM to provide its own copy of the hypercall pages; just fill them in
directly using VMCALL/VMMCALL as we do for the Hyper-V hypercall page.
This behaviour is enabled by a new INTERCEPT_HCALL flag in the
KVM_XEN_HVM_CONFIG ioctl structure, and advertised by the same flag
being returned from the KVM_CAP_XEN_HVM check.
Rename xen_hvm_config() to kvm_xen_write_hypercall_page() and move it
to the nascent xen.c while we're at it, and add a test case.

Virtual Machine can exploit bus locks to degrade the performance of
system. Bus lock can be caused by split locked access to writeback(WB)
memory or by using locks on uncacheable(UC) memory. The bus lock is
typically >1000 cycles slower than an atomic operation within a cache
line. It also disrupts performance on other cores (which must wait for
the bus lock to be released before their memory operations can
complete).
To address the threat, bus lock VM exit is introduced to notify the VMM
when a bus lock was acquired, allowing it to enforce throttling or other
policy based mitigations.
A VMM can enable VM exit due to bus locks by setting a new "Bus Lock
Detection" VM-execution control(bit 30 of Secondary Processor-based VM
execution controls). If delivery of this VM exit was preempted by a
higher priority VM exit (e.g. EPT misconfiguration, EPT violation, APIC
access VM exit, APIC write VM exit, exception bitmap exiting), bit 26 of
exit reason in vmcs field is set to 1.
In current implementation, the KVM exposes this capability through
KVM_CAP_X86_BUS_LOCK_EXIT. The user can get the supported mode bitmap
(i.e. off and exit) and enable it explicitly (disabled by default). If
bus locks in guest are detected by KVM, exit to user space even when
current exit reason is handled by KVM internally. Set a new field
KVM_RUN_BUS_LOCK in vcpu->run->flags to inform the user space that there
is a bus lock detected in guest.
Document for Bus Lock VM exit is now available at the latest "Intel
Architecture Instruction Set Extensions Programming Reference".

Typically under KVM, an AP is booted using the INIT-SIPI-SIPI sequence,
where the guest vCPU register state is updated and then the vCPU is VMRUN
to begin execution of the AP. For an SEV-ES guest, this won't work because
the guest register state is encrypted.
Following the GHCB specification, the hypervisor must not alter the guest
register state, so KVM must track an AP/vCPU boot. Should the guest want
to park the AP, it must use the AP Reset Hold exit event in place of, for
example, a HLT loop.
First AP boot (first INIT-SIPI-SIPI sequence):
Execute the AP (vCPU) as it was initialized and measured by the SEV-ES
support. It is up to the guest to transfer control of the AP to the
proper location.
Subsequent AP boot:
KVM will expect to receive an AP Reset Hold exit event indicating that
the vCPU is being parked and will require an INIT-SIPI-SIPI sequence to
awaken it. When the AP Reset Hold exit event is received, KVM will place
the vCPU into a simulated HLT mode. Upon receiving the INIT-SIPI-SIPI
sequence, KVM will make the vCPU runnable. It is again up to the guest
to then transfer control of the AP to the proper location.
To differentiate between an actual HLT and an AP Reset Hold, a new MP
state is introduced, KVM_MP_STATE_AP_RESET_HOLD, which the vCPU is
placed in upon receiving the AP Reset Hold exit event. Additionally, to
communicate the AP Reset Hold exit event up to userspace (if needed), a
new exit reason is introduced, KVM_EXIT_AP_RESET_HOLD.
A new x86 ops function is introduced, vcpu_deliver_sipi_vector, in order
to accomplish AP booting. For VMX, vcpu_deliver_sipi_vector is set to the
original SIPI delivery function, kvm_vcpu_deliver_sipi_vector(). SVM adds
a new function that, for non SEV-ES guests, invokes the original SIPI
delivery function, kvm_vcpu_deliver_sipi_vector(), but for SEV-ES guests,
implements the logic above.

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.
