Patch 1 fixes a KVM+rseq bug where KVM's handling of TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME,
e.g. for task migration, clears the flag without informing rseq and leads
to stale data in userspace's rseq struct.

Patch 2 is a cleanup to try and make future bugs less likely.  It's also
a baby step towards moving and renaming tracehook_notify_resume() since
it has nothing to do with tracing.

Patch 3 is a fix/cleanup to stop overriding x86's unistd_{32,64}.h when
the include path (intentionally) omits tools' uapi headers.  KVM's
selftests do exactly that so that they can pick up the uapi headers from
the installed kernel headers, and still use various tools/ headers that
mirror kernel code, e.g. linux/types.h.  This allows the new test in
patch 4 to reference __NR_rseq without having to manually define it.

Patch 4 is a regression test for the KVM+rseq bug.

Patch 5 is a cleanup made possible by patch 3.

v2:
  - Don't touch rseq_cs when handling KVM case so that rseq_syscall() will
    still detect a naughty userspace. [Mathieu]
  - Use a sequence counter + retry in the test to ensure the process isn't
    migrated between sched_getcpu() and reading rseq.cpu_id, i.e. to
    avoid a flaky test. [Mathieu]
  - Add Mathieu's ack for patch 2.
  - Add more comments in the test.

Invoke rseq's NOTIFY_RESUME handler when processing the flag prior to
transferring to a KVM guest, which is roughly equivalent to an exit to
userspace and processes many of the same pending actions.  While the task
cannot be in an rseq critical section as the KVM path is reachable only
by via ioctl(KVM_RUN), the side effects that apply to rseq outside of a
critical section still apply, e.g. the current CPU needs to be updated if
the task is migrated.

Clearing TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME without informing rseq can lead to segfaults
and other badness in userspace VMMs that use rseq in combination with KVM,
e.g. due to the CPU ID being stale after task migration.

Invoke rseq_handle_notify_resume() from tracehook_notify_resume() now
that the two function are always called back-to-back by architectures
that have rseq.  The rseq helper is stubbed out for architectures that
don't support rseq, i.e. this is a nop across the board.

Note, tracehook_notify_resume() is horribly named and arguably does not
belong in tracehook.h as literally every line of code in it has nothing
to do with tracing.  But, that's been true since commit a42c6ded827d
("move key_repace_session_keyring() into tracehook_notify_resume()")
first usurped tracehook_notify_resume() back in 2012.  Punt cleaning that
mess up to future patches.

No functional change intended.

Move unistd_{32,64}.h from x86/include/asm to x86/include/uapi/asm so
that tools/selftests that install kernel headers, e.g. KVM selftests, can
include non-uapi tools headers, e.g. to get 'struct list_head', without
effectively overriding the installed non-tool uapi headers.

Swapping KVM's search order, e.g. to search the kernel headers before
tool headers, is not a viable option as doing results in linux/type.h and
other core headers getting pulled from the kernel headers, which do not
have the kernel-internal typedefs that are used through tools, including
many files outside of selftests/kvm's control.

Prior to commit cec07f53c398 ("perf tools: Move syscall number fallbacks
from perf-sys.h to tools/arch/x86/include/asm/"), the handcoded numbers
were actual fallbacks, i.e. overriding unistd_{32,64}.h from the kernel
headers was unintentional.

Add a test to verify an rseq's CPU ID is updated correctly if the task is
migrated while the kernel is handling KVM_RUN.  This is a regression test
for a bug introduced by commit 72c3c0fe54a3 ("x86/kvm: Use generic xfer
to guest work function"), where TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME would be cleared by KVM
without updating rseq, leading to a stale CPU ID and other badness.

Revert the __NR_userfaultfd syscall fallback added for KVM selftests now
that x86's unistd_{32,63}.h overrides are under uapi/ and thus not in
KVM sefltests' search path, i.e. now that KVM gets x86 syscall numbers
from the installed kernel headers.

No functional change intended.

+#define RSEQ_SIG 0xdeadbeef

Is there any reason for defining a custom signature rather than including
tools/testing/selftests/rseq/rseq.h ? This should take care of including
the proper architecture header which will define the appropriate signature.

Arguably you don't define rseq critical sections in this test per se, but
I'm wondering why the custom signature here.

So technically this atomic_inc contains the required barriers because the selftests
implementation uses "__sync_add_and_fetch(&addr->val, 1)". But it's rather odd that
the semantic differs from the kernel implementation in terms of memory barriers: the
kernel implementation of atomic_inc guarantees no memory barriers, but this one
happens to provide full barriers pretty much by accident (selftests
futex/include/atomic.h documents no such guarantee).

If this full barrier guarantee is indeed provided by the selftests atomic.h header,
I would really like a comment stating that in the atomic.h header so the carpet is
not pulled from under our feet by a future optimization.

This comment should be about increasing the odds of letting the seqlock read-side
complete. Otherwise, the delay between the two back-to-back atomic_inc is so small
that the seqlock read-side may never have time to complete the reading the rseq
cpu id and the sched_getcpu() call, and can retry forever.

I'm wondering if 1 microsecond is sufficient on other architectures as well. One
alternative way to make this depend less on the architecture's implementation of
sched_getcpu (whether it's a vDSO, or goes through a syscall) would be to read
the rseq cpu id and call sched_getcpu a few times (e.g. 3 times) in the migration
thread rather than use usleep, and throw away the value read. This would ensure
the delay is appropriate on all architectures.

Thanks!

Partly to avoid taking a dependency on rseq.h, and partly to try to call out that
the test doesn't actually do any rseq critical sections.

Yeah, I got quite lost trying to figure out what atomics the test would actually
end up with.

Hmm, but that's not why there's a delay.  I'm not arguing that a livelock isn't
possible (though that syscall would have to be screaming fast), but the primary
motivation is very much to allow the read-side enough time to get back into KVM
proper.

To encounter the bug, TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME has to be recognized by KVM in its run
loop, i.e. sched_setaffinity() must induce task migration after the read-side has
invoked ioctl(KVM_RUN).

I'm definitely wondering that as well :-)

As above, I think an arbitrary delay is required regardless of how fast
sched_getcpu() can execute.  One thought would be to do sched_getcpu() _and_
usleep() to account for sched_getcpu() overhead and to satisfy the KVM_RUN part,
but I don't know that that adds meaningful value.

The real test is if someone could see if the bug repros on non-x86 hardware...

It might be good to add a comment near this define stating this then, so nobody
attempts to copy this as an example.

At the very least, until things are clarified in the selftests atomic header, I would
recommend adding a comment stating which memory barriers are required alongside each
use of atomic_inc here. I would even prefer that we add extra (currently unneeded)
write barriers to make extra sure that this stays documented. Performance of the write-side
does not matter much here.

I don't think we have the same understanding of the livelock scenario. AFAIU the livelock
would be caused by a too-small delay between the two consecutive atomic_inc() from one
loop iteration to the next compared to the time it takes to perform a read-side critical
section of the seqlock. Back-to-back atomic_inc can be performed very quickly, so I
doubt that the sched_getcpu implementation have good odds to be fast enough to complete
in that narrow window, leading to lots of read seqlock retry.

I'm puzzled by your statement. AFAIU, let's say we don't have the delay, then we
have:

migration thread                             KVM_RUN/read-side thread
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                             - ioctl(KVM_RUN)
- atomic_inc_seq_cst(&seqcnt)
- sched_setaffinity
- atomic_inc_seq_cst(&seqcnt)
                                             - a = atomic_load(&seqcnt) & ~1
                                             - smp_rmb()
                                             - b = LOAD_ONCE(__rseq_abi->cpu_id);
                                             - sched_getcpu()
                                             - smp_rmb()
                                             - re-load seqcnt/compare (succeeds)
                                               - Can only succeed if entire read-side happens while the seqcnt
                                                 is in an even numbered state.
                                             - if (a != b) abort()
  /* no delay. Even counter state is very
     short. */
- atomic_inc_seq_cst(&seqcnt)
  /* Let's suppose the lack of delay causes the
     setaffinity to complete too early compared
     with KVM_RUN ioctl */
- sched_setaffinity
- atomic_inc_seq_cst(&seqcnt)

  /* no delay. Even counter state is very
     short. */
- atomic_inc_seq_cst(&seqcnt)
  /* Then a setaffinity from a following
     migration thread loop will run
     concurrently with KVM_RUN */
                                             - ioctl(KVM_RUN)
- sched_setaffinity
- atomic_inc_seq_cst(&seqcnt)

As pointed out here, if the first setaffinity runs too early compared with KVM_RUN,
a following setaffinity will run concurrently with it. However, the fact that 
the even counter state is very short may very well hurt progress of the read seqlock.

As I explain in the scenario above, I don't think we agree on the reason why the
delay is required. One way to confirm this would be to run the code without delay,
and count how many seqcnt read-side succeed vs fail. We can then compare that with
a run with a 1us delay between the migration thread loops. This data should help us
come to a common understanding of the delay's role.

Mathieu

Ooooh, yeah, brain fart on my side.  I was thinking of the two atomic_inc() in the
same loop iteration and completely ignoring the next iteration.  Yes, I 100% agree
that a delay to ensure forward progress is needed.  An assertion in main() that the
reader complete at least some reasonable number of KVM_RUNs is also probably a good
idea, e.g. to rule out a false pass due to the reader never making forward progress.

FWIW, the do-while loop does make forward progress without a delay, but at ~50% 
throughput, give or take.

*sigh*

Several hours later, I think I finally have my head wrapped around everything.

Due to the way the test is written and because of how KVM's run loop works,
TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME or TIF_NEED_RESCHED effectively has to be set before KVM actually
enters the guest, otherwise KVM will exit to userspace without touching the flag,
i.e. it will be handled by the normal exit_to_user_mode_loop().

Where I got lost was trying to figure out why I couldn't make the bug reproduce by
causing the guest to exit to KVM, but not userspace, in which case KVM should
easily trigger the problematic flow as the window for sched_getcpu() to collide
with KVM would be enormous.  The reason I didn't go down this route for the
"official" test is that, unless there's something clever I'm overlooking, it
requires arch specific guest code, and ialso I don't know that forcing an exit
would even be necessary/sufficient on other architectures.

Anyways, I was trying to confirm that the bug was being hit without a delay, while
still retaining the sequence retry in the test.  The test doesn't fail because the
back-to-back atomic_inc() changes seqcnt too fast.  The read-side makes forward
progress, but it never observes failure because the do-while loop only ever
completes after another sched_setaffinity(), never after the one that collides
with KVM because it takes too long to get out of ioctl(KVM_RUN) and back to the
test.  I.e. the atomic_inc() in the next loop iteration (makes seq_cnt odd) always
completes before the check, and so the check ends up spinning until another
migration, which correctly updates rseq.  This was expected and didn't confuse me.

What confused me is that I was trying to confirm the bug was being hit from within
the kernel by confirming KVM observed TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME, but I misunderstood when
TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME would get set.  KVM can observe TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME directly, but
it's rare, and I suspect happens iff sched_setaffinity() hits the small window where
it collides with KVM_RUN before KVM enters the guest.

More commonly, the bug occurs when KVM sees TIF_NEED_RESCHED.  In that case, KVM
calls xfer_to_guest_mode_work(), which does schedule() and _that_ sets
TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME.  xfer_to_guest_mode_work() then mishandles TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME
and the bug is hit, but my confirmation logic in KVM never fired.

So there are effectively three reasons we want a delay:

  1. To allow sched_setaffinity() to coincide with ioctl(KVM_RUN) before KVM can
     enter the guest so that the guest doesn't need an arch-specific VM-Exit source.

  2. To let ioctl(KVM_RUN) make its way back to the test before the next round
     of migration.

  3. To ensure the read-side can make forward progress, e.g. if sched_getcpu()
     involves a syscall.


After looking at KVM for arm64 and s390, #1 is a bit tenuous because x86 is the
only arch that currently uses xfer_to_guest_mode_work(), i.e. the test could be
tweaked to be overtly x86-specific.  But since a delay is needed for #2 and #3,
I'd prefer to rely on it for #1 as well in the hopes that this test provides
coverage for arm64 and/or s390 if they're ever converted to use the common
xfer_to_guest_mode_work().

I did not expect absolutely no progress, but a significant slow down of
the read-side.

Now that we have this understanding of why we need the delay, it would be good to
write this down in a comment within the test.

Does it reproduce if we randomize the delay to have it picked randomly from 0us
to 100us (with 1us step) ? It would remove a lot of the needs for arch-specific
magic delay value.

Thanks,

Mathieu

Ya, I'll get a new version out next week.

My less-than-scientific testing shows that it can reproduce at delays up to ~500us,
but above ~10us the reproducibility starts to drop.  The bug still reproduces
reliably, it just takes more iterations, and obviously the test runs a bit slower.

Any objection to using a 1-10us delay, e.g. a simple usleep((i % 10) + 1)?
