* [PATCH V2] vm_event: Allow subscribing to write events for specific MSR-s

Previously, subscribing to MSR write events was an all-or-none
approach, with special cases for introspection MSR-s. This patch
allows the vm_event consumer to specify exactly what MSR-s it is
interested in, and as a side-effect gets rid of the
vmx_introspection_force_enabled_msrs[] special case.
This replaces the previously posted "xen: Filter out MSR write
events" patch.

Changes since V1:
 - Removed ARM stubs.
 - Corrected domain_unpause(d) omission.
 - Moved enable / disable and query functions from vm_event.c to
   monitor.c.

I this was not set wouldn't we fail in vm_event_enable with -ENOMEM?

I presume the user can still make this hypercall..  Ah yes.

Perhaps -ENXIO?

The 0x000/BYTER_PER_LONG looks odd. Is it even needed?

And for MSRs above 0xc0001fff it is OK to enable the interception?
Or between 0x1fff and 0xc0000000?

No need to filter them out? Or error on them?

And what if msr requested is above 0xc0001fff ? What then?

Whoa there. Isn't it expanding the structure? Will this be backwards
compatible? What if somebody is using an older version of xen-access
against this hypervisor? Will they work?

Perhaps this should have a new struct / sub-ops? And the old
'mov_to_msr' will just re-use this new fangled code?

(It might help to read the following review before coming back here...)

It might be clearer to express monitor_msr_bitmap as a pointer to

struct monitor_msr_bitmap {
    uint8_t low[1024];
    uint8_t hypervisor[1024];
    uint8_t high[1024];
};

which avoids the odd pointer arithmetic.

__set_bit().  I don't think you need a LOCK here.

No real MSRs exist outside the [0..1fff] and [0xc0000000..0xc0001fff]
ranges, so will suffer a #GP.  This is even reflected in how both VT-x
and SVM do their MSR interception bitmap, which is why I specifically
suggested using the same here.

However, this case wants a range between [0x40000000..0x40001fff]

vmap space is far more limited than general xenheap space.  vmap()

Its a domctl.  This is perfectly fine (within the rules) to do.

Sure, I can return -ENXIO. I just thought -EINVAL reflects the case
well: it's not right to call this hypercall if you haven't subscribed
for vm_events beforehand (in which case d->arch.monitor_msr_bitmap is
NULL, because it's only allocated then, and de-allocated again when the
subscriber unsubscribes).

I've pretty much copied the code from the enabled msrs bitmap, so I
assume it was, but I'll change the code to follow Andrew Cooper's
suggestion which should make this go away.

I think the questions above have been answered by Andrew Cooper.

I'm happy to rename it, but I don't think it should - it has the exact

In addition to Andrew's comments, I think simply changing
VM_EVENT_INTERFACE_VERSION should be enough for xen-access-like clients
to figure out the incompatibility.

IMHO there is no need to prepend the function names here with arch_ as
these are x86 specific so there never will be ARM equivalent.

That's true. I'll remove the prefix.

This is an independent system from VM_EVENT, so IMHO the two shouldn't be
mixed. The union size right now is 24-bits so if a uint16_t is enough for
the bitmask that should be used instead. That way we don't end up growing
the struct size.

Right. Well, MSR-s seem to be passed around as 32-bit unsigned integers
everywhere in the Xen source code, so unless that also needs correcting
then unfortunately it'll have to grow.

MSR indices are always 32bits wide, as they live specifically in %ecx
when encoded for instructions.

Only 2K MSRs are currently specified in hardware, with some extra ones
in the hypervisor range, but this doesn't mean that list won't grow in
the future.

Yea, well then we need to introduce a new struct with a new subop to pass
the bitmask. I guess its a lesson in ABI design to leave some wiggle room
for future-proofing it (my bad). So I guess we can introduce
XEN_DOMCTL_MONITOR_OP_ENABLE_V2 and struct xen_domctl_monitor_op_v2 where
say expand the union to uint64_t just in case?

I can do that, but it would seem that this is somewhat at odds with
Andrew Cooper's perspective - he has stated that it's within the rules
and the domctl can be changed without there being the need for
XEN_DOMCTL_MONITOR_OP_ENABLE_V2. So this should be clarified, please,
otherwise I'm incurring the risk of changing the code only to have to
revert it later.


Thanks,
Razvan

You basically have two options - the new sub-op or changing the existing
one while (if not already done so in a dev cycle) bumping the domctl
interface version.

If bumping the domctl version is not too much hassle I think that would be
the easiest.

Fair enough, I'll look into that option then.
