[PATCH v2 0/3] KVM: nSVM: fix #TF from CR3 switch when entering guest

[PATCH v2 0/3] KVM: nSVM: fix #TF from CR3 switch when entering guest

[Vitaly Kuznetsov]

This is a succesor of "[PATCH] KVM: x86: drop erroneous mmu_check_root()
from fast_pgd_switch()".

Undesired triple fault gets injected to L1 guest on SVM when L2 is
launched with certain CR3 values. #TF is raised by mmu_check_root()
check in fast_pgd_switch() and the root cause is that when
kvm_set_cr3() is called from nested_prepare_vmcb_save() with NPT
enabled CR3 points to a nGPA so we can't check it with
kvm_is_visible_gfn().

Fix the issue by moving kvm_mmu_new_pgd() to the right place when switching
to nested guest and drop the unneeded mmu_check_root() check from
fast_pgd_switch().

[PATCH v2 1/3] KVM: nSVM: split kvm_init_shadow_npt_mmu() from kvm_init_shadow_mmu()

[Vitaly Kuznetsov]

As a preparatory change for moving kvm_mmu_new_pgd() from
nested_prepare_vmcb_save() to nested_svm_init_mmu_context() split
kvm_init_shadow_npt_mmu() from kvm_init_shadow_mmu(). This also makes
the code look more like nVMX (kvm_init_shadow_ept_mmu()).

No functional change intended.

As a follow up, the assignments to context should stop using
vcpu->arch.mmu in favor of root_mmu/guest_mmu.

[PATCH v2 2/3] KVM: nSVM: properly call kvm_mmu_new_pgd() upon switching to guest

[Vitaly Kuznetsov]

Undesired triple fault gets injected to L1 guest on SVM when L2 is
launched with certain CR3 values. #TF is raised by mmu_check_root()
check in fast_pgd_switch() and the root cause is that when
kvm_set_cr3() is called from nested_prepare_vmcb_save() with NPT
enabled CR3 points to a nGPA so we can't check it with
kvm_is_visible_gfn().

Calling kvm_mmu_new_pgd() with L2's CR3 idea when NPT is in use
seems to be wrong, an acceptable place for it seems to be
kvm_init_shadow_npt_mmu(). This also matches nVMX code.

Instead of the new argument (which is not really named right since it's
never true for !NPT) you could perhaps check vcpu->arch.mmu.  But also,
for NPT=1 the kvm_mmu_new_pgd is also unnecessary on vmexit, because the
old roots are still valid (or has been invalidated otherwise) while L2
was running.

I'm also not sure if skip_tlb_flush can use X86_CR3_PCID_NOFLUSH the way
kvm_set_cr3 does, so I wouldn't mind duplicating the code completely as
is already the case for nested_vmx_load_cr3.  It would introduce some
code duplication, but overall the code would be better.  For now, there
need not be an equivalent to nested_vmx_transition_mmu_sync, ASID
handling can be left for later.

Sounds reasonable,

let's introduce nested_svm_load_cr3() to not mix these two concepts
together. I'll be back with v3 shortly, thanks!

[PATCH v2 3/3] KVM: x86: drop superfluous mmu_check_root() from fast_pgd_switch()

[Vitaly Kuznetsov]

The mmu_check_root() check in fast_pgd_switch() seems to be
superfluous: when GPA is outside of the visible range
cached_root_available() will fail for non-direct roots
(as we can't have a matching one on the list) and we don't
seem to care for direct ones.

Also, raising #TF immediately when a non-existent GFN is written to CR3
doesn't seem to mach architectural behavior. Drop the check.
