Jaehoon KimandChristian Borntraeger 9972befc3e KVM: s390: Fall back to short-term pinning in MAP ioctl
FOLL_LONGTERM pinning fails for some memory types, such as file-backed
guest memory. As a result, kvm_s390_adapter_map() returns -EINVAL and
irqfd adapter registration fails even though interrupt delivery could
still work via the existing non-atomic path.

When FOLL_LONGTERM pinning fails, verify that the page is accessible
using a short-term pin instead. If the short-term pin succeeds, unpin
the page and add a map entry with pinned=false to preserve MAP/UNMAP
symmetry. The non-atomic irqfd path already performs short-term pinning
for interrupt delivery, so this restores the previous behavior for
memory that cannot be pinned long-term.

get_map_info() is updated to return NULL for unpinned entries so that
the atomic irqfd fast path falls back to the non-atomic path.
kvm_s390_adapter_unmap() and kvm_s390_unmap_all_adapters() skip dirty
marking and unpin for unpinned entries.

Update Documentation/virt/kvm/devices/s390_flic.rst to reflect the
new MAP/UNMAP behavior.

Alexandru EliseiandMarc Zyngier 679d7201c1 KVM: arm64: Reject guest_memfd memslots when the VM has MTE
The user cannot use MTE on VMAs created by mapping a guest_memfd file,
as arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() does not set VM_MTE_ALLOWED.

When creating a guest_memfd backed memslot,
kvm_arch_prepare_memory_region() rejects the memslot if MTE is enabled for
the VM and if guest_memfd has been mapped in a VMA that intersects the
memslot.

However, the documentation for KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION2 explicitly
states that the only condition for userspace_addr is for it to be a legal
userspace address, but the mapping is not required to be valid nor
populated at memslot creation.

If userspace sets userspace_addr to an address that hasn't been mapped, or
if userspace_addr belongs to a VMA that isn't backed by the guest_memfd
file, or if the VMA doesn't intersect the memslot, memslot creation is
successful and KVM ends up with a VM with MTE and guest_memfd-backed
memslots.

The same happens if the order is reversed: when userspace enables MTE, KVM
does not check if memslots backed by guest_memfd are already present.

Fix both issues by rejecting guest_memfd-backed memslots when MTE is
enabled, and by rejecting MTE when guest_memfd-backed memslots are already
present.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "arm64:

     This is a bit of an odd merge window on the KVM/arm64 front. There
     is absolutely no new feature in the pull request. It is purely
     fixes, because it is simply becoming too hard to review new stuff
     when so many AI-fuelled fixes hit the list.

   - Significant cleanup of the vgic-v5 PPI support which was merged in
     7.1. This makes the code more maintainable, and squashes a couple
     of bugs in the meantime

   - Set of fixes for the handling of the MMU in an NV context,
     particularly VNCR-triggered faults. S1POE support is fixed as well

   - Large set of pKVM fixes, mostly addressing recurring issues around
     hypervisor tracking of donated pages in obscure cases where the
     donation could fail and leave things in a bizarre state

   - Fixes for the so-called "lazy vgic init", which resulted in
     sleeping operations in non-preemptible sections. This turned out to
     be far more invasive than initially expected..

   - Reduce the overhead of L1/L2 context switch by not touching the FP
     registers

   - Fix the way non-implemented page sizes are dealt with when a guest
     insist on using them for S2 translation

   - The usual set of low-impact fixes and cleanups all over the map

  Loongarch:

   - On a request for lazy FPU load, load all FPU state that the VM
     supports instead of enabling only the part (FPU, LSX or LASX) that
     caused the FPU load request

   - Some enhancements about interrupt injection

   - Some bug fixes and other small changes

  RISC-V:

   - Batch G-stage TLB flushes for GPA range based page table updates

   - Convert HGEI line management to fully per-HART

   - Fix missing CSR dirty marking when FWFT state updated via ONE_REG

   - Fix stale FWFT feature exposure to Guest/VM

   - Speed up dirty logging write faults using MMU rwlock and atomic PTE
     updates using cmpxchg() for permission-only changes

   - Use flexible array for APLIC IRQ state

   - Use kvm_slot_dirty_track_enabled() for logging enable check on a
     memslot

   - Avoid skipping valid pages in kvm_riscv_gstage_wp_range()

   - Avoid skipping valid pages in kvm_riscv_gstage_unmap_range()

   - Use endian-specific __lelong for NACL shared memory

  S390:

   - KVM_PRE_FAULT_MEMORY support

   - Support for 2G hugepages

   - Support for the ASTFLEIE 2 facility

   - Support for fast inject using kvm_arch_set_irq_inatomic

   - Fix potential leak of uninitialized bytes

   - A few more misc gmap fixes

  x86:

   - Generic support for the more granular permissions allowed by EPT,
     namely "read" (which was previously usurping the U bit) and
     separate execution bits for kernel and userspace

   - Do not assume that all page tables start with U=1/W=1/NX=0 at the
     root, as AMD GMET needs to have U=0 at the root

   - Introduce common assembly macros for use within Intel and AMD
     vendor-specific vmentry code. This touches the SPEC_CTRL handling,
     which is now entirely done in assembly for Intel (by reusing the
     AMD code that already existed), and register save/restore which
     uses some macro magic to compute the offsets in the struct. Both of
     these are preparatory changes for upcoming APX support

   - Clean up KVM's register tracking and storage, primarily to prepare
     for APX support, which expands the maximum number of GPRs from 16
     to 32

   - Keep a single copy of the PDPTRs rather than two, since
     architecturally there is just one

   - Handle EXIT_FASTPATH_EXIT_USERSPACE in vendor code to ensure vendor
     code gets a chance to handle things like reaping the PML buffer

   - Update KVM's view of PV async enabling if and only if the MSR write
     fully succeeds

   - Fix a variety of issues where the emulator doesn't honor
     guest-debug state, and clean up related code along the way

   - Synthesize EPT Violation and #NPF "error code" bits when injecting
     faults into L1 that didn't originate in hardware (in which case the
     VMCS/VMCB doesn't hold relevant information)

   - Add support for virtualizing (well, emulating) AMD's flavor of
     CPL>0 CPUID faulting

   - Clean up the GPR APIs so that KVM's use of "raw" is consistent, and
     fix a variety of minor bugs along the way

   - Fix an OOB memory access due to not checking the VP ID when
     handling a Hyper-V PV TLB flush for L2

   - Fix a bug in the mediated PMU's handling of fixed counters that
     allowed the guest to bypass the PMU event filter

   - Allow userspace to return EAGAIN when handling SNP and TDX
     hypercalls, so the KVM can forward a "retry" status code to the
     guest, and reserve all unused error codes for future usage

   - Overhaul the TDP MMU => S-EPT code to move as much S-EPT specific
     logic as possible into the TDX code, and to funnel (almost) all
     S-EPT updates into a single chokepoint. The motivation is largely
     to prepare for upcoming Dynamic PAMT support, but the cleanups are
     nice to have on their own

   - Plug a hole in shadow page table handling, where KVM fails to
     recursively zap nested EPT/NPT shadow page tables when the nested
     hypervisor tears down its own EPT/NPT page tables from the bottom
     up

  x86 (Intel):

   - Support for nested MBEC (Mode-Based Execute Control), see above in
     the generic section; also run with MBEC enabled even for non-nested
     mode

   - Use the kernel's "enum pg_level" in the TDX APIs instead of the
     TDX-Module's level definitions (which are 0-based)

   - Rework the TDX memory APIs to not require/assume that guest memory
     is backed by "struct page" (in prepartion for guest_memfd hugepage
     support)

   - Fix a largely benign bug where KVM TDX would incorrectly state it
     could emulate several x2APIC MSRs

   - Use the "safe" WRMSR API when proxying LBR MSR writes as the
     to-be-written value is guest controlled and completely unvalidated

  x86 (AMD):

   - Support for nested GMET (Guest Mode Execution Trap), see above in
     the generic section; also run with GMET enabled even for non-nested
     mode

   - Fixes and minor cleanups to GHCB handling, on top of the earlier
     work already merged into 7.1-rc

   - Ensure KVM's copy of CR0 and CR3 are up-to-date prior to invoking
     fastpath handlers

   - Add support for virtualizing gPAT (KVM previously just used L1's
     PAT when running L2)

   - Fix goofs where KVM mishandles side effects (e.g. single-step and
     PMC updates) when emulating VMRUN

   - Fix a variety of bugs in AVIC's handling of x2APIC MSR
     interception, most notably where KVM didn't disable interception of
     IRR, ISR, and TMR regs

   - Add support for virtualizing Host-Only/Guest-Only bits in the
     mediated PMU

   - Don't advertise support for unusable VM types, and account for VM
     types that are disabled by firmware, e.g. to mitigate security
     vulnerabilities

   - Rewrite the SEV {en,de}crypt debug ioctls as they were riddle with
     bugs and unnecessarily complicated, and add comprehensive tests

   - Clean up and deduplicate the SEV page pinning code

   - Fix minor goofs related to writing back CPUID information after
     firmware rejects a CPUID page for an SNP vCPU

  Generic:

   - Rename invalidate_begin() to invalidate_start() throughout KVM to
     follow the kernel's nomenclature, e.g. for mmu_notifiers

   - Use guard() to cleanup up various KVM+VFIO flows

   - Minor cleanups

  guest_memfd:

   - Return -EEXIST instead of -EINVAL if userspace attempts to bind a
     gmem range to multiple memslots, and fix the test that was supposed
     to ensure KVM returns -EEXIST

   - Treat memslot binding offsets and sizes as unsigned values to fix a
     bug where KVM interprets a large "offset + size" as a negative
     value and allows a nonsensical offset

   - Use the inode number instead of the page offset for the NUMA
     interleaving index to fix a bug where the effective index would
     jump by two for consecutive pages (the caller also adds in the page
     offset)

  Selftests:

   - Randomize the dirty log test's delay when reaping the bitmap on the
     first pass, as always waiting only 1ms hid a KVM RISC-V bug as the
     test reaped the bitmap before KVM could build up enough state to
     hit the bug

   - A pile of one-off fixes and cleanups"

Vishal AnnapurveandSean Christopherson 3e2dec1ede KVM: TDX: Allow userspace to return errors to guest for MAPGPA
MAPGPA request from TDX VMs gets split into chunks by KVM using a loop
of userspace exits until the complete range is handled.

In some cases userspace VMM might decide to break the MAPGPA operation
and continue it later. For example: in the case of intrahost migration
userspace might decide to continue the MAPGPA operation after the
migration is completed.

Allow userspace to signal to TDX guests that the MAPGPA operation should
be retried the next time the guest is scheduled.

This is potentially a breaking change since if userspace sets
hypercall.ret to a value other than EBUSY or EINVAL an EINVAL error code
will be returned to userspace. As of now QEMU never sets hypercall.ret
to a non-zero value after handling KVM_EXIT_HYPERCALL so this change
should be safe.

Sascha BischoffandMarc Zyngier 3f5aeaf8d9 Documentation: KVM: Clarify that PMU_V3_IRQ IntID requirements for GICv5
When running a GICv5-based guest, the PMU must use PPI 23. This,
however, must be communicated via the
KVM_ARM_VCPU_PMU_V3_CTRL->KVM_ARM_VCPU_PMU_V3_IRQ ioctl as a full
GICv5-style Interrupt ID. That is, 0x20000017. Optionally, the whole
ioctl can be skipped for GICv5.

This was previously not clearly documented, so bump the documentation
accordingly.

Jim MattsonandSean Christopherson 4f256d5770 KVM: x86: nSVM: Save/restore gPAT with KVM_{GET,SET}_NESTED_STATE
Add a 'gpat' field to kvm_svm_nested_state_hdr to carry L2's guest PAT
value across save and restore.

When KVM_X86_QUIRK_NESTED_SVM_SHARED_PAT is disabled and the vCPU is in
guest mode with nested NPT enabled, save vmcb02's g_pat into the header on
KVM_GET_NESTED_STATE, and restore it on KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE.

Host-initiated accesses to IA32_PAT (via KVM_GET/SET_MSRS) always target
L1's hPAT, so they cannot be used to save or restore gPAT. The separate
header field ensures that KVM_GET/SET_MSRS and KVM_GET/SET_NESTED_STATE are
independent and can be ordered arbitrarily during save and restore.

Note that struct kvm_svm_nested_state_hdr is included in a union padded to
120 bytes, so there is room to add the gpat field without changing any
offsets.

Define a quirk to control whether nested SVM shares L1's PAT with L2
(legacy behavior) or gives L2 its own independent gPAT (correct behavior
per the APM).

When the quirk is enabled (default), L2 shares L1's PAT, preserving the
legacy KVM behavior. When userspace disables the quirk, KVM correctly
virtualizes the PAT for nested SVM guests, giving L2 a separate gPAT as
specified in the AMD architecture.
