KVM: x86: Optimization: Requst TLB flush in fast_cr3_switch() instead of do it directly

2019-11-15T10:44:11+00:00

When KVM emulates a nested VMEntry (L1->L2 VMEntry), it switches mmu root page. If nEPT is used, this will happen from kvm_init_shadow_ept_mmu()->__kvm_mmu_new_cr3() and otherwise it will happpen from nested_vmx_load_cr3()->kvm_mmu_new_cr3(). Either case, __kvm_mmu_new_cr3() will use fast_cr3_switch() in attempt to switch to a previously cached root page. In case fast_cr3_switch() finds a matching cached root page, it will set it in mmu->root_hpa and request KVM_REQ_LOAD_CR3 such that on next entry to guest, KVM will set root HPA in appropriate hardware fields (e.g. vmcs->eptp). In addition, fast_cr3_switch() calls kvm_x86_ops->tlb_flush() in order to flush TLB as MMU root page was replaced. This works as mmu->root_hpa, which vmx_flush_tlb() use, was already replaced in cached_root_available(). However, this may result in unnecessary INVEPT execution because a KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH may have already been requested. For example, by prepare_vmcs02() in case L1 don't use VPID. Therefore, change fast_cr3_switch() to just request TLB flush on next entry to guest.

KVM: x86/mmu: Take slots_lock when using kvm_mmu_zap_all_fast()

2019-11-14T15:21:22+00:00

Acquire the per-VM slots_lock when zapping all shadow pages as part of toggling nx_huge_pages. The fast zap algorithm relies on exclusivity (via slots_lock) to identify obsolete vs. valid shadow pages, because it uses a single bit for its generation number. Holding slots_lock also obviates the need to acquire a read lock on the VM's srcu. Failing to take slots_lock when toggling nx_huge_pages allows multiple instances of kvm_mmu_zap_all_fast() to run concurrently, as the other user, KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION, does not take the global kvm_lock. (kvm_mmu_zap_all_fast() does take kvm->mmu_lock, but it can be temporarily dropped by kvm_zap_obsolete_pages(), so it is not enough to enforce exclusivity). Concurrent fast zap instances causes obsolete shadow pages to be incorrectly identified as valid due to the single bit generation number wrapping, which results in stale shadow pages being left in KVM's MMU and leads to all sorts of undesirable behavior. The bug is easily confirmed by running with CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING and toggling nx_huge_pages via its module param. Note, until commit 4ae5acbc4936 ("KVM: x86/mmu: Take slots_lock when using kvm_mmu_zap_all_fast()", 2019-11-13) the fast zap algorithm used an ulong-sized generation instead of relying on exclusivity for correctness, but all callers except the recently added set_nx_huge_pages() needed to hold slots_lock anyways. Therefore, this patch does not have to be backported to stable kernels. Given that toggling nx_huge_pages is by no means a fast path, force it to conform to the current approach instead of reintroducing the previous generation count.

kvm: x86: disable shattered huge page recovery for PREEMPT_RT.

2019-11-13T14:47:06+00:00

If a huge page is recovered (and becomes no executable) while another thread is executing it, the resulting contention on mmu_lock can cause latency spikes. Disabling recovery for PREEMPT_RT kernels fixes this issue. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini

KVM: MMU: Do not treat ZONE_DEVICE pages as being reserved

2019-11-12T09:17:42+00:00

Explicitly exempt ZONE_DEVICE pages from kvm_is_reserved_pfn() and instead manually handle ZONE_DEVICE on a case-by-case basis. For things like page refcounts, KVM needs to treat ZONE_DEVICE pages like normal pages, e.g. put pages grabbed via gup(). But for flows such as setting A/D bits or shifting refcounts for transparent huge pages, KVM needs to to avoid processing ZONE_DEVICE pages as the flows in question lack the underlying machinery for proper handling of ZONE_DEVICE pages. This fixes a hang reported by Adam Borowski[*] in dev_pagemap_cleanup() when running a KVM guest backed with /dev/dax memory, as KVM straight up doesn't put any references to ZONE_DEVICE pages acquired by gup(). Note, Dan Williams proposed an alternative solution of doing put_page() on ZONE_DEVICE pages immediately after gup() in order to simplify the auditing needed to ensure is_zone_device_page() is called if and only if the backing device is pinned (via gup()). But that approach would break kvm_vcpu_{un}map() as KVM requires the page to be pinned from map() 'til unmap() when accessing guest memory, unlike KVM's secondary MMU, which coordinates with mmu_notifier invalidations to avoid creating stale page references, i.e. doesn't rely on pages being pinned.

kvm: x86: mmu: Recovery of shattered NX large pages

2019-11-04T19:26:00+00:00

The page table pages corresponding to broken down large pages are zapped in FIFO order, so that the large page can potentially be recovered, if it is not longer being used for execution. This removes the performance penalty for walking deeper EPT page tables. By default, one large page will last about one hour once the guest reaches a steady state.

kvm: mmu: ITLB_MULTIHIT mitigation

2019-11-04T11:22:02+00:00

With some Intel processors, putting the same virtual address in the TLB as both a 4 KiB and 2 MiB page can confuse the instruction fetch unit and cause the processor to issue a machine check resulting in a CPU lockup. Unfortunately when EPT page tables use huge pages, it is possible for a malicious guest to cause this situation. Add a knob to mark huge pages as non-executable. When the nx_huge_pages parameter is enabled (and we are using EPT), all huge pages are marked as NX. If the guest attempts to execute in one of those pages, the page is broken down into 4K pages, which are then marked executable. This is not an issue for shadow paging (except nested EPT), because then the host is in control of TLB flushes and the problematic situation cannot happen. With nested EPT, again the nested guest can cause problems shadow and direct EPT is treated in the same way.

KVM: x86: fix nested guest live migration with PML

2019-09-27T11:13:39+00:00

Shadow paging is fundamentally incompatible with the page-modification log, because the GPAs in the log come from the wrong memory map. In particular, for the EPT page-modification log, the GPAs in the log come from L2 rather than L1. (If there was a non-EPT page-modification log, we couldn't use it for shadow paging because it would log GVAs rather than GPAs). Therefore, we need to rely on write protection to record dirty pages. This has the side effect of bypassing PML, since writes now result in an EPT violation vmexit. This is relatively easy to add to KVM, because pretty much the only place that needs changing is spte_clear_dirty. The first access to the page already goes through the page fault path and records the correct GPA; it's only subsequent accesses that are wrong. Therefore, we can equip set_spte (where the first access happens) to record that the SPTE will have to be write protected, and then spte_clear_dirty will use this information to do the right thing.
