2023-01-20kvm/vfio: Fix potential deadlock on vfio group_lockYi Liu1-3/+3
Currently it is possible that the final put of a KVM reference comes from vfio during its device close operation. This occurs while the vfio group lock is held; however, if the vfio device is still in the kvm device list, then the following call chain could result in a deadlock: VFIO holds group->group_lock/group_rwsem -> kvm_put_kvm -> kvm_destroy_vm -> kvm_destroy_devices -> kvm_vfio_destroy -> kvm_vfio_file_set_kvm -> vfio_file_set_kvm -> try to hold group->group_lock/group_rwsem The key function is the kvm_destroy_devices() which triggers destroy cb of kvm_device_ops. It calls back to vfio and try to hold group_lock. So if this path doesn't call back to vfio, this dead lock would be fixed. Actually, there is a way for it. KVM provides another point to free the kvm-vfio device which is the point when the device file descriptor is closed. This can be achieved by providing the release cb instead of the destroy cb. Also rename kvm_vfio_destroy() to be kvm_vfio_release(). /* * Destroy is responsible for freeing dev. * * Destroy may be called before or after destructors are called * on emulated I/O regions, depending on whether a reference is * held by a vcpu or other kvm component that gets destroyed * after the emulated I/O. */ void (*destroy)(struct kvm_device *dev); /* * Release is an alternative method to free the device. It is * called when the device file descriptor is closed.

2023-01-11KVM: Ensure lockdep knows about kvm->lock vs. vcpu->mutex ordering ruleDavid Woodhouse1-0/+7
Documentation/virt/kvm/locking.rst tells us that kvm->lock is taken outside vcpu->mutex. But that doesn't actually happen very often; it's only in some esoteric cases like migration with AMD SEV. This means that lockdep usually doesn't notice, and doesn't do its job of keeping us honest. Ensure that lockdep *always* knows about the ordering of these two locks, by briefly taking vcpu->mutex in kvm_vm_ioctl_create_vcpu() while kvm->lock is held.

Convert the last two "out" lables to "err" labels now that the dust has settled, i.e. now that there are no more planned changes to the order of things in kvm_init(). Use "err" instead of "out" as it's easier to describe what failed than it is to describe what needs to be unwound, e.g. if allocating a per-CPU kick mask fails, KVM needs to free any masks that were allocated, and of course needs to unwind previous operations.

Allow architectures to opt out of the generic hardware enabling logic, and opt out on both s390 and PPC, which don't need to manually enable virtualization as it's always on (when available). In addition to letting s390 and PPC drop a bit of dead code, this will hopefully also allow ARM to clean up its related code, e.g. ARM has its own per-CPU flag to track which CPUs have enable hardware due to the need to keep hardware enabled indefinitely when pKVM is enabled.

2022-12-29KVM: Make hardware_enable_failed a local variable in the "enable all" pathIsaku Yamahata1-19/+16
Rework detecting hardware enabling errors to use a local variable in the "enable all" path to track whether or not enabling was successful across all CPUs. Using a global variable complicates paths that enable hardware only on the current CPU, e.g. kvm_resume() and kvm_online_cpu(). Opportunistically add a WARN if hardware enabling fails during kvm_resume(), KVM is all kinds of hosed if CPU0 fails to enable hardware. The WARN is largely futile in the current code, as KVM BUG()s on spurious faults on VMX instructions, e.g. attempting to run a vCPU on CPU if hardware enabling fails will explode. ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at arch/x86/kvm/x86.c:508! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP CPU: 3 PID: 1009 Comm: CPU 4/KVM Not tainted 6.1.0-rc1+ #11 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 0.0.0 02/06/2015 RIP: 0010:kvm_spurious_fault+0xa/0x10 Call Trace: vmx_vcpu_load_vmcs+0x192/0x230 [kvm_intel] vmx_vcpu_load+0x16/0x60 [kvm_intel] kvm_arch_vcpu_load+0x32/0x1f0 vcpu_load+0x2f/0x40 kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run+0x19/0x9d0 kvm_vcpu_ioctl+0x271/0x660 __x64_sys_ioctl+0x80/0xb0 do_syscall_64+0x2b/0x50 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x46/0xb0 But, the WARN may provide a breadcrumb to understand what went awry, and someday KVM may fix one or both of those bugs, e.g. by finding a way to eat spurious faults no matter the context (easier said than done due to side effects of certain operations, e.g. Intel's VMCLEAR).

2022-12-29KVM: Use a per-CPU variable to track which CPUs have enabled virtualizationSean Christopherson1-23/+18
Use a per-CPU variable instead of a shared bitmap to track which CPUs have successfully enabled virtualization hardware. Using a per-CPU bool avoids the need for an additional allocation, and arguably yields easier to read code. Using a bitmap would be advantageous if KVM used it to avoid generating IPIs to CPUs that failed to enable hardware, but that's an extreme edge case and not worth optimizing, and the low level helpers would still want to keep their individual checks as attempting to enable virtualization hardware when it's already enabled can be problematic, e.g. Intel's VMXON will fault. Opportunistically change the order in hardware_enable_nolock() to set the flag if and only if hardware enabling is successful, instead of speculatively setting the flag and then clearing it on failure. Add a comment explaining that the check in hardware_disable_nolock() isn't simply paranoia. Waaay back when, commit 1b6c016818a5 ("KVM: Keep track of which cpus have virtualization enabled"), added the logic as a guards against CPU hotplug racing with hardware enable/disable. Now that KVM has eliminated the race by taking cpu_hotplug_lock for read (via cpus_read_lock()) when enabling or disabling hardware, at first glance it appears that the check is now superfluous, i.e. it's tempting to remove the per-CPU flag entirely...

2022-12-29KVM: Remove on_each_cpu(hardware_disable_nolock) in kvm_exit()Isaku Yamahata1-1/+0
Drop the superfluous invocation of hardware_disable_nolock() during kvm_exit(), as it's nothing more than a glorified nop. KVM automatically disables hardware on all CPUs when the last VM is destroyed, and kvm_exit() cannot be called until the last VM goes away as the calling module is pinned by an elevated refcount of the fops associated with /dev/kvm. This holds true even on x86, where the caller of kvm_exit() is not kvm.ko, but is instead a dependent module, kvm_amd.ko or kvm_intel.ko, as kvm_chardev_ops.owner is set to the module that calls kvm_init(), not hardcoded to the base kvm.ko module.

2022-12-29KVM: Drop kvm_count_lock and instead protect kvm_usage_count with kvm_lockIsaku Yamahata1-12/+24
Drop kvm_count_lock and instead protect kvm_usage_count with kvm_lock now that KVM hooks CPU hotplug during the ONLINE phase, which can sleep. Previously, KVM hooked the STARTING phase, which is not allowed to sleep and thus could not take kvm_lock (a mutex). This effectively allows the task that's initiating hardware enabling/disabling to preempted and/or migrated. Note, the Documentation/virt/kvm/locking.rst statement that kvm_count_lock is "raw" because hardware enabling/disabling needs to be atomic with respect to migration is wrong on multiple fronts. First, while regular spinlocks can be preempted, the task holding the lock cannot be migrated. Second, preventing migration is not required. on_each_cpu() disables preemption, which ensures that cpus_hardware_enabled correctly reflects hardware state. The task may be preempted/migrated between bumping kvm_usage_count and invoking on_each_cpu(), but that's perfectly ok as kvm_usage_count is still protected, e.g. other tasks that call hardware_enable_all() will be blocked until the preempted/migrated owner exits its critical section. KVM does have lockless accesses to kvm_usage_count in the suspend/resume flows, but those are safe because all tasks must be frozen prior to suspending CPUs, and a task cannot be frozen while it holds one or more locks (userspace tasks are frozen via a fake signal). Preemption doesn't need to be explicitly disabled in the hotplug path. The hotplug thread is pinned to the CPU that's being hotplugged, and KVM only cares about having a stable CPU, i.e. to ensure hardware is enabled on the correct CPU. Lockep, i.e. check_preemption_disabled(), plays nice with this state too, as is_percpu_thread() is true for the hotplug thread.

2022-12-29KVM: Disable CPU hotplug during hardware enabling/disablingChao Gao1-0/+12
Disable CPU hotplug when enabling/disabling hardware to prevent the corner case where if the following sequence occurs: 1. A hotplugged CPU marks itself online in cpu_online_mask 2. The hotplugged CPU enables interrupt before invoking KVM's ONLINE callback 3 hardware_{en,dis}able_all() is invoked on another CPU the hotplugged CPU will be included in on_each_cpu() and thus get sent through hardware_{en,dis}able_nolock() before kvm_online_cpu() is called. start_secondary { ... set_cpu_online(smp_processor_id(), true); <- 1 ... local_irq_enable(); <- 2 ... cpu_startup_entry(CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE); <- 3 } KVM currently fudges around this race by keeping track of which CPUs have done hardware enabling (see commit 1b6c016818a5 "KVM: Keep track of which cpus have virtualization enabled"), but that's an inefficient, convoluted, and hacky solution.

2022-12-29KVM: Rename and move CPUHP_AP_KVM_STARTING to ONLINE sectionChao Gao1-8/+22
The CPU STARTING section doesn't allow callbacks to fail. Move KVM's hotplug callback to ONLINE section so that it can abort onlining a CPU in certain cases to avoid potentially breaking VMs running on existing CPUs. For example, when KVM fails to enable hardware virtualization on the hotplugged CPU. Place KVM's hotplug state before CPUHP_AP_SCHED_WAIT_EMPTY as it ensures when offlining a CPU, all user tasks and non-pinned kernel tasks have left the CPU, i.e. there cannot be a vCPU task around. So, it is safe for KVM's CPU offline callback to disable hardware virtualization at that point. Likewise, KVM's online callback can enable hardware virtualization before any vCPU task gets a chance to run on hotplugged CPUs. Drop kvm_x86_check_processor_compatibility()'s WARN that IRQs are disabled, as the ONLINE section runs with IRQs disabled. The WARN wasn't intended to be a requirement, e.g. disabling preemption is sufficient, the IRQ thing was purely an aggressive sanity check since the helper was only ever invoked via SMP function call. Rename KVM's CPU hotplug callbacks accordingly.

2022-12-29KVM: Teardown VFIO ops earlier in kvm_exit()Sean Christopherson1-1/+1
Move the call to kvm_vfio_ops_exit() further up kvm_exit() to try and bring some amount of symmetry to the setup order in kvm_init(), and more importantly so that the arch hooks are invoked dead last by kvm_exit(). This will allow arch code to move away from the arch hooks without any change in ordering between arch code and common code in kvm_exit(). That kvm_vfio_ops_exit() is called last appears to be 100% arbitrary. It was bolted on after the fact by commit 571ee1b68598 ("kvm: vfio: fix unregister kvm_device_ops of vfio"). The nullified kvm_device_ops_table is also local to kvm_main.c and is used only when there are active VMs, so unless arch code is doing something truly bizarre, nullifying the table earlier in kvm_exit() is little more than a nop.

2022-12-29KVM: Initialize IRQ FD after arch hardware setupSean Christopherson1-18/+17
Move initialization of KVM's IRQ FD workqueue below arch hardware setup as a step towards consolidating arch "init" and "hardware setup", and eventually towards dropping the hooks entirely. There is no dependency on the workqueue being created before hardware setup, the workqueue is used only when destroying VMs, i.e. only needs to be created before /dev/kvm is exposed to userspace. Move the destruction of the workqueue before the arch hooks to maintain symmetry, and so that arch code can move away from the hooks without having to worry about ordering changes. Reword the comment about kvm_irqfd_init() needing to come after kvm_arch_init() to call out that kvm_arch_init() must come before common KVM does _anything_, as x86 very subtly relies on that behavior to deal with multiple calls to kvm_init(), e.g. if userspace attempts to load kvm_amd.ko and kvm_intel.ko. Tag the code with a FIXME, as x86's subtle requirement is gross, and invoking an arch callback as the very first action in a helper that is called only from arch code is silly.

2022-11-30KVM: Drop KVM's API to allow temporarily unmapping gfn=>pfn cacheSean Christopherson1-28/+16
Drop kvm_gpc_unmap() as it has no users and unclear requirements. The API was added as part of the original gfn_to_pfn_cache support, but its sole usage[*] was never merged. Fold the guts of kvm_gpc_unmap() into the deactivate path and drop the API. Omit acquiring refresh_lock as as concurrent calls to kvm_gpc_deactivate() are not allowed (this is not enforced, e.g. via lockdep. due to it being called during vCPU destruction). If/when temporary unmapping makes a comeback, the desirable behavior is likely to restrict temporary unmapping to vCPU-exclusive mappings and require the vcpu->mutex be held to serialize unmap. Use of the refresh_lock to protect unmapping was somewhat specuatively added by commit 93984f19e7bc ("KVM: Fully serialize gfn=>pfn cache refresh via mutex") to guard against concurrent unmaps, but the primary use case of the temporary unmap, nested virtualization[*], doesn't actually need or want concurrent unmaps.

Since gfn_to_memslot() is relatively expensive, it helps to skip it if it the memslot cannot possibly have dirty logging enabled. In order to do this, add to struct kvm a counter of the number of log-page memslots. While the correct value can only be read with slots_lock taken, the NX recovery thread is content with using an approximate value. Therefore, the counter is an atomic_t.

This restore the original behavior of kvm.halt_poll_ns for VMs that have not opted into KVM_CAP_HALT_POLL.

Avoid re-reading kvm->max_halt_poll_ns multiple times during halt-polling except when it is explicitly useful, e.g. to check if the max time changed across a halt. kvm->max_halt_poll_ns can be changed at any time by userspace via KVM_CAP_HALT_POLL. This bug is unlikely to cause any serious side-effects. In the worst case one halt polls for shorter or longer than it should, and then is fixed up on the next halt. Furthmore, this is still possible since kvm->max_halt_poll_ns are not synchronized with halts.

Cap vcpu->halt_poll_ns based on the max halt polling time just before halting, rather than after the last halt. This arguably provides better accuracy if an admin disables halt polling in between halts, although the improvement is nominal. A side-effect of this change is that grow_halt_poll_ns() no longer needs to access vcpu->kvm->max_halt_poll_ns, which will be useful in a future commit where the max halt polling time can come from the module parameter halt_poll_ns instead.

2022-11-12KVM: Push dirty information unconditionally to backup bitmapGavin Shan1-3/+2
In mark_page_dirty_in_slot(), we bail out when no running vcpu exists and a running vcpu context is strictly required by architecture. It may cause backwards compatible issue. Currently, saving vgic/its tables is the only known case where no running vcpu context is expected. We may have other unknown cases where no running vcpu context exists and it's reported by the warning message and we bail out without pushing the dirty information to the backup bitmap. For this, the application is going to enable the backup bitmap for the unknown cases. However, the dirty information can't be pushed to the backup bitmap even though the backup bitmap is enabled for those unknown cases in the application, until the unknown cases are added to the allowed list of non-running vcpu context with extra code changes to the host kernel. In order to make the new application, where the backup bitmap has been enabled, to work with the unchanged host, we continue to push the dirty information to the backup bitmap instead of bailing out early. With the added check on 'memslot->dirty_bitmap' to mark_page_dirty_in_slot(), the kernel crash is avoided silently by the combined conditions: no running vcpu context, kvm_arch_allow_write_without_running_vcpu() returns 'true', and the backup bitmap (KVM_CAP_DIRTY_LOG_RING_WITH_BITMAP) isn't enabled yet.
