Pull x86 ITS mitigation from Dave Hansen:
"Mitigate Indirect Target Selection (ITS) issue.
I'd describe this one as a good old CPU bug where the behavior is
_obviously_ wrong, but since it just results in bad predictions it
wasn't wrong enough to notice. Well, the researchers noticed and also
realized that thus bug undermined a bunch of existing indirect branch
mitigations.
Thus the unusually wide impact on this one. Details:
ITS is a bug in some Intel CPUs that affects indirect branches
including RETs in the first half of a cacheline. Due to ITS such
branches may get wrongly predicted to a target of (direct or indirect)
branch that is located in the second half of a cacheline. Researchers
at VUSec found this behavior and reported to Intel.
Affected processors:
- Cascade Lake, Cooper Lake, Whiskey Lake V, Coffee Lake R, Comet
Lake, Ice Lake, Tiger Lake and Rocket Lake.
Scope of impact:
- Guest/host isolation:
When eIBRS is used for guest/host isolation, the indirect branches
in the VMM may still be predicted with targets corresponding to
direct branches in the guest.
- Intra-mode using cBPF:
cBPF can be used to poison the branch history to exploit ITS.
Realigning the indirect branches and RETs mitigates this attack
vector.
- User/kernel:
With eIBRS enabled user/kernel isolation is *not* impacted by ITS.
- Indirect Branch Prediction Barrier (IBPB):
Due to this bug indirect branches may be predicted with targets
corresponding to direct branches which were executed prior to IBPB.
This will be fixed in the microcode.
Mitigation:
As indirect branches in the first half of cacheline are affected, the
mitigation is to replace those indirect branches with a call to thunk that
is aligned to the second half of the cacheline.
RETs that take prediction from RSB are not affected, but they may be
affected by RSB-underflow condition. So, RETs in the first half of
cacheline are also patched to a return thunk that executes the RET aligned
to second half of cacheline"

The "kvm_run->kvm_valid_regs" and "kvm_run->kvm_dirty_regs" variables are
u64 type. We are only using the lowest 3 bits but we want to ensure that
the users are not passing invalid bits so that we can use the remaining
bits in the future.
However "sync_valid_fields" and kvm_sync_valid_fields() are u32 type so
the check only ensures that the lower 32 bits are clear. Fix this by
changing the types to u64.

kvm_arch_has_irq_bypass() is a small function and even though it does
not appear in any *really* hot paths, it's also not entirely rare.
Make it inline---it also works out nicely in preparation for using it in
kvm-intel.ko and kvm-amd.ko, since the function is not currently exported.

Acquire a lock on kvm->srcu when userspace is getting MP state to handle a
rather extreme edge case where "accepting" APIC events, i.e. processing
pending INIT or SIPI, can trigger accesses to guest memory. If the vCPU
is in L2 with INIT *and* a TRIPLE_FAULT request pending, then getting MP
state will trigger a nested VM-Exit by way of ->check_nested_events(), and
emuating the nested VM-Exit can access guest memory.
The splat was originally hit by syzkaller on a Google-internal kernel, and
reproduced on an upstream kernel by hacking the triple_fault_event_test
selftest to stuff a pending INIT, store an MSR on VM-Exit (to generate a
memory access on VMX), and do vcpu_mp_state_get() to trigger the scenario.

The immediate issue being fixed here is a nVMX bug where KVM fails to
detect that, after nested VM-Exit, L1 has a pending IRQ (or NMI).
However, checking for a pending interrupt accesses the legacy PIC, and
x86's kvm_arch_destroy_vm() currently frees the PIC before destroying
vCPUs, i.e. checking for IRQs during the forced nested VM-Exit results
in a NULL pointer deref; that's a prerequisite for the nVMX fix.
The remaining patches attempt to bring a bit of sanity to x86's VM
teardown code, which has accumulated a lot of cruft over the years. E.g.
KVM currently unloads each vCPU's MMUs in a separate operation from
destroying vCPUs, all because when guest SMP support was added, KVM had a
kludgy MMU teardown flow that broke when a VM had more than one 1 vCPU.
And that oddity lived on, for 18 years...

KVM Xen changes for 6.15
- Don't write to the Xen hypercall page on MSR writes that are initiated by
the host (userspace or KVM) to fix a class of bugs where KVM can write to
guest memory at unexpected times, e.g. during vCPU creation if userspace has
set the Xen hypercall MSR index to collide with an MSR that KVM emulates.
- Restrict the Xen hypercall MSR indx to the unofficial synthetic range to
reduce the set of possible collisions with MSRs that are emulated by KVM
(collisions can still happen as KVM emulates Hyper-V MSRs, which also reside
in the synthetic range).
- Clean up and optimize KVM's handling of Xen MSR writes and xen_hvm_config.
- Update Xen TSC leaves during CPUID emulation instead of modifying the CPUID
entries when updating PV clocks, as there is no guarantee PV clocks will be
updated between TSC frequency changes and CPUID emulation, and guest reads
of Xen TSC should be rare, i.e. are not a hot path.
|

KVM PV clock changes for 6.15:
- Don't take kvm->lock when iterating over vCPUs in the suspend notifier to
fix a largely theoretical deadlock.
- Use the vCPU's actual Xen PV clock information when starting the Xen timer,
as the cached state in arch.hv_clock can be stale/bogus.
- Fix a bug where KVM could bleed PVCLOCK_GUEST_STOPPED across different
PV clocks.
- Restrict PVCLOCK_GUEST_STOPPED to kvmclock, as KVM's suspend notifier only
accounts for kvmclock, and there's no evidence that the flag is actually
supported by Xen guests.
- Clean up the per-vCPU "cache" of its reference pvclock, and instead only
track the vCPU's TSC scaling (multipler+shift) metadata (which is moderately
expensive to compute, and rarely changes for modern setups).

KVM x86 misc changes for 6.15:
- Fix a bug in PIC emulation that caused KVM to emit a spurious KVM_REQ_EVENT.
- Add a helper to consolidate handling of mp_state transitions, and use it to
clear pv_unhalted whenever a vCPU is made RUNNABLE.
- Defer runtime CPUID updates until KVM emulates a CPUID instruction, to
coalesce updates when multiple pieces of vCPU state are changing, e.g. as
part of a nested transition.
- Fix a variety of nested emulation bugs, and add VMX support for synthesizing
nested VM-Exit on interception (instead of injecting #UD into L2).
- Drop "support" for PV Async #PF with proctected guests without SEND_ALWAYS,
as KVM can't get the current CPL.
- Misc cleanups
|
|
KVM_CAP_SYNC_REGS does not make sense for VMs with protected guest state,
since the register values cannot actually be written. Return 0
when using the VM-level KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION ioctl, and accordingly
return -EINVAL from KVM_RUN if the valid/dirty fields are nonzero.
However, on exit from KVM_RUN userspace could have placed a nonzero
value into kvm_run->kvm_valid_regs, so check guest_state_protected
again and skip store_regs() in that case.

Add guest_tsc_protected member to struct kvm_arch_vcpu and prohibit
changing TSC offset/multiplier when guest_tsc_protected is true.
X86 confidential computing technology defines protected guest TSC so that
the VMM can't change the TSC offset/multiplier once vCPU is initialized.
SEV-SNP defines Secure TSC as optional, whereas TDX mandates it.
KVM has common logic on x86 that tries to guess or adjust TSC
offset/multiplier for better guest TSC and TSC interrupt latency
at KVM vCPU creation (kvm_arch_vcpu_postcreate()), vCPU migration
over pCPU (kvm_arch_vcpu_load()), vCPU TSC device attributes
(kvm_arch_tsc_set_attr()) and guest/host writing to TSC or TSC adjust MSR
(kvm_set_msr_common()).
The current x86 KVM implementation conflicts with protected TSC because the
VMM can't change the TSC offset/multiplier.
Because KVM emulates the TSC timer or the TSC deadline timer with the TSC
offset/multiplier, the TSC timer interrupts is injected to the guest at the
wrong time if the KVM TSC offset is different from what the TDX module
determined.
Originally this issue was found by cyclic test of rt-test [1] as the
latency in TDX case is worse than VMX value + TDX SEAMCALL overhead. It
turned out that the KVM TSC offset is different from what the TDX module
determines.
Disable or ignore the KVM logic to change/adjust the TSC offset/multiplier
somehow, thus keeping the KVM TSC offset/multiplier the same as the
value of the TDX module. Writes to MSR_IA32_TSC are also blocked as
they amount to a change in the TSC offset.

TDX needs to free the TDR control structures last, after all paging structures
have been torn down; move the vm_destroy callback at a suitable place.
The new place is also okay for AMD; the main difference is that the
MMU has been torn down and, if anything, that is better done before
the SNP ASID is released.

KVM x86 fixes for 6.14-rcN #2
- Set RFLAGS.IF in C code on SVM to get VMRUN out of the STI shadow.
- Ensure DEBUGCTL is context switched on AMD to avoid running the guest with
the host's value, which can lead to unexpected bus lock #DBs.
- Suppress DEBUGCTL.BTF on AMD (to match Intel), as KVM doesn't properly
emulate BTF. KVM's lack of context switching has meant BTF has always been
broken to some extent.
- Always save DR masks for SNP vCPUs if DebugSwap is *supported*, as the guest
can enable DebugSwap without KVM's knowledge.
- Fix a bug in mmu_stress_tests where a vCPU could finish the "writes to RO
memory" phase without actually generating a write-protection fault.
- Fix a printf() goof in the SEV smoke test that causes build failures with
-Werror.
- Explicitly zero EAX and EBX in CPUID.0x8000_0022 output when PERFMON_V2
isn't supported by KVM.

When emulating HLT and a wake event is already pending, explicitly mark
the vCPU RUNNABLE (via kvm_set_mp_state()) instead of assuming the vCPU is
already in the appropriate state. Barring a KVM bug, it should be
impossible for the vCPU to be in a non-RUNNABLE state, but there is no
advantage to relying on that to hold true, and ensuring the vCPU is made
RUNNABLE avoids non-deterministic behavior with respect to pv_unhalted.
E.g. if the vCPU is not already RUNNABLE, then depending on when
pv_unhalted is set, KVM could either leave the vCPU in the non-RUNNABLE
state (set before __kvm_emulate_halt()), or transition the vCPU to HALTED
and then RUNNABLE (pv_unhalted set after the kvm_vcpu_has_events() check).

Move KVM's snapshot of DEBUGCTL to kvm_vcpu_arch and take the snapshot in
common x86, so that SVM can also use the snapshot.
Opportunistically change the field to a u64. While bits 63:32 are reserved
on AMD, not mentioned at all in Intel's SDM, and managed as an "unsigned
long" by the kernel, DEBUGCTL is an MSR and therefore a 64-bit value.

Fold the guts of kvm_arch_sync_events() into kvm_arch_pre_destroy_vm(), as
the kvmclock and PIT background workers only need to be stopped before
destroying vCPUs (to avoid accessing vCPUs as they are being freed); it's
a-ok for them to be running while the VM is visible on the global vm_list.
Note, the PIT also needs to be stopped before IRQ routing is freed
(because KVM's IRQ routing is garbage and assumes there is always non-NULL
routing).
Opportunistically add comments to explain why KVM stops/frees certain
assets early.

When destroying a VM, unload a vCPU's MMUs as part of normal vCPU freeing,
instead of as a separate prepratory action. Unloading MMUs ahead of time
is a holdover from commit 7b53aa565084 ("KVM: Fix vcpu freeing for guest
smp"), which "fixed" a rather egregious flaw where KVM would attempt to
free *all* MMU pages when destroying a vCPU.
At the time, KVM would spin on all MMU pages in a VM when free a single
vCPU, and so would hang due to the way KVM pins and zaps root pages
(roots are invalidated but not freed if they are pinned by a vCPU).
static void free_mmu_pages(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu)
{
struct kvm_mmu_page *page;
while (!list_empty(&vcpu->kvm->active_mmu_pages)) {
page = container_of(vcpu->kvm->active_mmu_pages.next,
struct kvm_mmu_page, link);
kvm_mmu_zap_page(vcpu->kvm, page);
}
free_page((unsigned long)vcpu->mmu.pae_root);
}
Now that KVM doesn't try to free all MMU pages when destroying a single
vCPU, there's no need to unpin roots prior to destroying a vCPU.
Note! While KVM mostly destroys all MMUs before calling
kvm_arch_destroy_vm() (see commit f00be0cae4e6 ("KVM: MMU: do not free
active mmu pages in free_mmu_pages()")), unpinning MMU roots during vCPU
destruction will unfortunately trigger remote TLB flushes, i.e. will try
to send requests to all vCPUs.
Happily, thanks to commit 27592ae8dbe4 ("KVM: Move wiping of the kvm->vcpus
array to common code"), that's a non-issue as freed vCPUs are naturally
skipped by xa_for_each_range(), i.e. by kvm_for_each_vcpu(). Prior to that
commit, KVM x86 rather stupidly freed vCPUs one-by-one, and _then_
nullified them, one-by-one. I.e. triggering a VM-wide request would hit a
use-after-free.

Free vCPUs before freeing any VM state, as both SVM and VMX may access
VM state when "freeing" a vCPU that is currently "in" L2, i.e. that needs
to be kicked out of nested guest mode.
Commit 6fcee03df6a1 ("KVM: x86: avoid loading a vCPU after .vm_destroy was
called") partially fixed the issue, but for unknown reasons only moved the
MMU unloading before VM destruction. Complete the change, and free all
vCPU state prior to destroying VM state, as nVMX accesses even more state
than nSVM.
In addition to the AVIC, KVM can hit a use-after-free on MSR filters:

Inarguably, both nSVM and nVMX need to be fixed, but punt on those
cleanups for the moment. Conceptually, vCPUs should be freed before VM
state. Assets like the I/O APIC and PIC _must_ be allocated before vCPUs
are created, so it stands to reason that they must be freed _after_ vCPUs
are destroyed.

Open code the filling of vcpu->arch.exception in kvm_requeue_exception()
instead of bouncing through kvm_multiple_exception(), as re-injection
doesn't actually share that much code with "normal" injection, e.g. the
VM-Exit interception check, payload delivery, and nested exception code
is all bypassed as those flows only apply during initial injection.
When FRED comes along, the special casing will only get worse, as FRED
explicitly tracks nested exceptions and essentially delivers the payload
on the stack frame, i.e. re-injection will need more inputs, and normal
injection will have yet more code that needs to be bypassed when KVM is
re-injecting an exception.
No functional change intended.

Rename send_user_only to avoid "user", because KVM's ABI is to not inject
page faults into CPL0, whereas "user" in x86 is specifically CPL3. Invert
the polarity to keep the naming simple and unambiguous. E.g. while KVM
often refers to CPL0 as "kernel", that terminology isn't ubiquitous, and
"send_kernel" could be misconstrued as "send only to kernel".

The Xen emulation in KVM modifies certain CPUID leaves to expose
TSC information to the guest.
Previously, these CPUID leaves were updated whenever guest time changed,
but this conflicts with KVM_SET_CPUID/KVM_SET_CPUID2 ioctls which reject
changes to CPUID entries on running vCPUs.
Fix this by updating the TSC information directly in the CPUID emulation
handler instead of modifying the vCPU's CPUID entries.

Remove the per-vCPU "cache" of the reference pvclock and instead cache
only the TSC shift+multiplier. All other fields in pvclock are fully
recomputed by kvm_guest_time_update(), i.e. aren't actually persisted.
In addition to shaving a few bytes, explicitly tracking the TSC shift/mul
fields makes it easier to see that those fields are tied to hw_tsc_khz
(they exist to avoid having to do expensive math in the common case).
And conversely, not tracking the other fields makes it easier to see that
things like the version number are pulled from the guest's copy, not from
KVM's reference.

Handle "guest stopped" propagation only for kvmclock, as the flag is set
if and only if kvmclock is "active", i.e. can only be set for Xen PV clock
if kvmclock *and* Xen PV clock are in-use by the guest, which creates very
bizarre behavior for the guest.
Simply restrict the flag to kvmclock, e.g. instead of trying to handle
Xen PV clock, as propagation of PVCLOCK_GUEST_STOPPED was unintentionally
added during a refactoring, and while Xen proper defines
XEN_PVCLOCK_GUEST_STOPPED, there's no evidence that Xen guests actually
support the flag.
Check and clear pvclock_set_guest_stopped_request if and only if kvmclock
is active to preserve the original behavior, i.e. keep the flag pending
if kvmclock happens to be disabled when KVM processes the initial request.

Handle "guest stopped" requests once per guest time update in preparation
of restoring KVM's historical behavior of setting PVCLOCK_GUEST_STOPPED
for kvmclock and only kvmclock. For now, simply move the code to minimize
the probability of an unintentional change in functionally.
Note, in practice, all clocks are guaranteed to see the request (or not)
even though each PV clock processes the request individual, as KVM holds
vcpu->mutex (blocks KVM_KVMCLOCK_CTRL) and it should be impossible for
KVM's suspend notifier to run while KVM is handling requests. And because
the helper updates the reference flags, all subsequent PV clock updates
will pick up PVCLOCK_GUEST_STOPPED.
Note #2, once PVCLOCK_GUEST_STOPPED is restricted to kvmclock, the
horrific #ifdef will go away.

Defer runtime CPUID updates until the next non-faulting CPUID emulation
or KVM_GET_CPUID2, which are the only paths in KVM that consume the
dynamic entries. Deferring the updates is especially beneficial to
nested VM-Enter/VM-Exit, as KVM will almost always detect multiple state
changes, not to mention the updates don't need to be realized while L2 is
active if CPUID is being intercepted by L1 (CPUID is a mandatory intercept
on Intel, but not AMD).
Deferring CPUID updates shaves several hundred cycles from nested VMX
roundtrips, as measured from L2 executing CPUID in a tight loop:
SKX 6850 => 6450
ICX 9000 => 8800
EMR 7900 => 7700
Alternatively, KVM could update only the CPUID leaves that are affected
by the state change, e.g. update XSAVE info only if XCR0 or XSS changes,
but that adds non-trivial complexity and doesn't solve the underlying
problem of nested transitions potentially changing both XCR0 and XSS, on
both nested VM-Enter and VM-Exit.
Skipping updates entirely if L2 is active and CPUID is being intercepted
by L1 could work for the common case. However, simply skipping updates if
L2 is active is *very* subtly dangerous and complex. Most KVM updates are
triggered by changes to the current vCPU state, which may be L2 state,
whereas performing updates only for L1 would requiring detecting changes
to L1 state. KVM would need to either track relevant L1 state, or defer
runtime CPUID updates until the next nested VM-Exit. The former is ugly
and complex, while the latter comes with similar dangers to deferring all
CPUID updates, and would only address the nested VM-Enter path.
To guard against using stale data, disallow querying dynamic CPUID feature
bits, i.e. features that KVM updates at runtime, via a compile-time
assertion in guest_cpu_cap_has(). Exempt MWAIT from the rule, as the
MISC_ENABLE_NO_MWAIT means that MWAIT is _conditionally_ a dynamic CPUID
feature.
Note, the rule could be enforced for MWAIT as well, e.g. by querying guest
CPUID in kvm_emulate_monitor_mwait, but there's no obvious advtantage to
doing so, and allowing MWAIT for guest_cpuid_has() opens up a different can
of worms. MONITOR/MWAIT can't be virtualized (for a reasonable definition),
and the nature of the MWAIT_NEVER_UD_FAULTS and MISC_ENABLE_NO_MWAIT quirks
means checking X86_FEATURE_MWAIT outside of kvm_emulate_monitor_mwait() is
wrong for other reasons.
Beyond the aforementioned feature bits, the only other dynamic CPUID
(sub)leaves are the XSAVE sizes, and similar to MWAIT, consuming those
CPUID entries in KVM is all but guaranteed to be a bug. The layout for an
actual XSAVE buffer depends on the format (compacted or not) and
potentially the features that are actually enabled. E.g. see the logic in
fpstate_clear_xstate_component() needed to poke into the guest's effective
XSAVE state to clear MPX state on INIT. KVM does consume
CPUID.0xD.0.{EAX,EDX} in kvm_check_cpuid() and cpuid_get_supported_xcr0(),
but not EBX, which is the only dynamic output register in the leaf.

Rework MONITOR/MWAIT emulation to query X86_FEATURE_MWAIT if and only if
the MISC_ENABLE_NO_MWAIT quirk is enabled, in which case MWAIT is not a
dynamic, KVM-controlled CPUID feature. KVM's funky ABI for that quirk is
to emulate MONITOR/MWAIT as nops if userspace sets MWAIT in guest CPUID.
For the case where KVM owns the MWAIT feature bit, check MISC_ENABLES
itself, i.e. check the actual control, not its reflection in guest CPUID.
Avoiding consumption of dynamic CPUID features will allow KVM to defer
runtime CPUID updates until kvm_emulate_cpuid(), i.e. until the updates
become visible to the guest. Alternatively, KVM could play other games
with runtime CPUID updates, e.g. by precisely specifying which feature
bits to update, but doing so adds non-trivial complexity and doesn't solve
the underlying issue of unnecessary updates causing meaningful overhead
for nested virtualization roundtrips.

Move the conditional loading of hardware DR6 with the guest's DR6 value
out of the core .vcpu_run() loop to fix a bug where KVM can load hardware
with a stale vcpu->arch.dr6.
When the guest accesses a DR and host userspace isn't debugging the guest,
KVM disables DR interception and loads the guest's values into hardware on
VM-Enter and saves them on VM-Exit. This allows the guest to access DRs
at will, e.g. so that a sequence of DR accesses to configure a breakpoint
only generates one VM-Exit.
For DR0-DR3, the logic/behavior is identical between VMX and SVM, and also
identical between KVM_DEBUGREG_BP_ENABLED (userspace debugging the guest)
and KVM_DEBUGREG_WONT_EXIT (guest using DRs), and so KVM handles loading
DR0-DR3 in common code, _outside_ of the core kvm_x86_ops.vcpu_run() loop.
But for DR6, the guest's value doesn't need to be loaded into hardware for
KVM_DEBUGREG_BP_ENABLED, and SVM provides a dedicated VMCB field whereas
VMX requires software to manually load the guest value, and so loading the
guest's value into DR6 is handled by {svm,vmx}_vcpu_run(), i.e. is done
_inside_ the core run loop.
Unfortunately, saving the guest values on VM-Exit is initiated by common
x86, again outside of the core run loop. If the guest modifies DR6 (in
hardware, when DR interception is disabled), and then the next VM-Exit is
a fastpath VM-Exit, KVM will reload hardware DR6 with vcpu->arch.dr6 and
clobber the guest's actual value.
The bug shows up primarily with nested VMX because KVM handles the VMX
preemption timer in the fastpath, and the window between hardware DR6
being modified (in guest context) and DR6 being read by guest software is
orders of magnitude larger in a nested setup. E.g. in non-nested, the
VMX preemption timer would need to fire precisely between #DB injection
and the #DB handler's read of DR6, whereas with a KVM-on-KVM setup, the
window where hardware DR6 is "dirty" extends all the way from L1 writing
DR6 to VMRESUME (in L1).

The Xen hypercall page MSR is write-only. When the guest writes an address
to the MSR, the hypervisor populates the referenced page with hypercall
functions.
There is no reason for the host ever to write to the MSR, and it isn't
even readable.
Allowing host writes to trigger the hypercall page allows userspace to
attack the kernel, as kvm_xen_write_hypercall_page() takes multiple
locks and writes to guest memory. E.g. if userspace sets the MSR to
MSR_IA32_XSS, KVM's write to MSR_IA32_XSS during vCPU creation will
trigger an SRCU violation due to writing guest memory:

While the MSR index isn't strictly ABI, i.e. can theoretically float to
any value, in practice no known VMM sets the MSR index to anything other
than 0x40000000 or 0x40000200.

The only statement in a kvm_arch_post_init_vm implementation
can be moved into the x86 kvm_arch_init_vm. Do so and remove all
traces from architecture-independent code.

Some libraries want to ensure they are single threaded before forking,
so making the kernel's kvm huge page recovery process a vhost task of
the user process breaks those. The minijail library used by crosvm is
one such affected application.
Defer the task to after the first VM_RUN call, which occurs after the
parent process has forked all its jailed processes. This needs to happen
only once for the kvm instance, so introduce some general-purpose
infrastructure for that, too. It's similar in concept to pthread_once;
except it is actually usable, because the callback takes a parameter.
