Explicitly disallow creating more memslot pages than can fit in an
unsigned long, KVM doesn't correctly handle a total number of memslot
pages that doesn't fit in an unsigned long and remedying that would be a
waste of time.
For a 64-bit kernel, this is a nop as memslots are not allowed to overlap
in the gfn address space.
With a 32-bit kernel, userspace can at most address 3gb of virtual memory,
whereas wrapping the total number of pages would require 4tb+ of guest
physical memory. Even with x86's second address space for SMM, userspace
would need to alias all of guest memory more than one _thousand_ times.
And on older x86 hardware with MAXPHYADDR < 43, the guest couldn't
actually access any of those aliases even if userspace lied about
guest.MAXPHYADDR.
On 390 and arm64, this is a nop as they don't support 32-bit hosts.
On x86, practically speaking this is simply acknowledging reality as the
existing kvm_mmu_calculate_default_mmu_pages() assumes the total number
of pages fits in an "unsigned long".
On PPC, this is likely a nop as every flavor of PPC KVM assumes gfns (and
gpas!) fit in unsigned long. arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_32_mmu_host.c goes
a step further and fails the build if CONFIG_PTE_64BIT=y, which
presumably means that it does't support 64-bit physical addresses.
On MIPS, this is also likely a nop as the core MMU helpers assume gpas
fit in unsigned long, e.g. see kvm_mips_##name##_pte.
And finally, RISC-V is a "don't care" as it doesn't exist in any release,
i.e. there is no established ABI to break.

At least on arm64 and x86, the vcpus array is pretty huge (up to
1024 entries on x86) and is mostly empty in the majority of the cases
(running 1k vcpu VMs is not that common).
This mean that we end-up with a 4kB block of unused memory in the
middle of the kvm structure.
Instead of wasting away this memory, let's use an xarray instead,
which gives us almost the same flexibility as a normal array, but
with a reduced memory usage with smaller VMs.

All architectures have similar loops iterating over the vcpus,
freeing one vcpu at a time, and eventually wiping the reference
off the vcpus array. They are also inconsistently taking
the kvm->lock mutex when wiping the references from the array.
Make this code common, which will simplify further changes.
The locking is dropped altogether, as this should only be called
when there is no further references on the kvm structure.

Reject userspace memslots whose size exceeds the storage capacity of an
"unsigned long". KVM's uAPI takes the size as u64 to support large slots
on 64-bit hosts, but does not account for the size being truncated on
32-bit hosts in various flows. The access_ok() check on the userspace
virtual address in particular casts the size to "unsigned long" and will
check the wrong number of bytes.
KVM doesn't actually support slots whose size doesn't fit in an "unsigned
long", e.g. KVM's internal kvm_memory_slot.npages is an "unsigned long",
not a "u64", and misc arch specific code follows that behavior.

* Fixes for Xen emulation
* Kill kvm_map_gfn() / kvm_unmap_gfn() and broken gfn_to_pfn_cache
* Fixes for migration of 32-bit nested guests on 64-bit hypervisor
* Compilation fixes
* More SEV cleanups
In commit 7e2175ebd6 ("KVM: x86: Fix recording of guest steal time /
preempted status") I removed the only user of these functions because
it was basically impossible to use them safely.
There are two stages to the GFN->PFN mapping; first through the KVM
memslots to a userspace HVA and then through the page tables to
translate that HVA to an underlying PFN. Invalidations of the former
were being handled correctly, but no attempt was made to use the MMU
notifiers to invalidate the cache when the HVA->GFN mapping changed.
As a prelude to reinventing the gfn_to_pfn_cache with more usable
semantics, rip it out entirely and untangle the implementation of
the unsafe kvm_vcpu_map()/kvm_vcpu_unmap() functions from it.
All current users of kvm_vcpu_map() also look broken right now, and
will be dealt with separately. They broadly fall into two classes:
* Those which map, access the data and immediately unmap. This is
mostly gratuitous and could just as well use the existing user
HVA, and could probably benefit from a gfn_to_hva_cache as they
do so.
* Those which keep the mapping around for a longer time, perhaps
even using the PFN directly from the guest. These will need to
be converted to the new gfn_to_pfn_cache and then kvm_vcpu_map()
can be removed too.

All of the irqfds would to be updated when update the irq
routing, it's too expensive if there're too many irqfds.
However we can reduce the cost by avoid some unnecessary
updates. For irqs of MSI type on X86, the update can be
saved if the msi values are not change.
The vfio migration could receives benefit from this optimi-
zaiton. The test VM has 128 vcpus and 8 VF (with 65 vectors
enabled), so the VM has more than 520 irqfds. We mesure the
cost of the vfio_msix_enable (in QEMU, it would set routing
for each irqfd) for each VF, and we can see the total cost
can be significantly reduced.

Fix a benign data race reported by syzbot+KCSAN[*] by ensuring vcpu->cpu
is read exactly once, and by ensuring the vCPU is booted from guest mode
if kvm_arch_vcpu_should_kick() returns true. Fix a similar race in
kvm_make_vcpus_request_mask() by ensuring the vCPU is interrupted if
kvm_request_needs_ipi() returns true.
Reading vcpu->cpu before vcpu->mode (via kvm_arch_vcpu_should_kick() or
kvm_request_needs_ipi()) means the target vCPU could get migrated (change
vcpu->cpu) and enter !OUTSIDE_GUEST_MODE between reading vcpu->cpud and
reading vcpu->mode. If that happens, the kick/IPI will be sent to the
old pCPU, not the new pCPU that is now running the vCPU or reading SPTEs.
Although failing to kick the vCPU is not exactly ideal, practically
speaking it cannot cause a functional issue unless there is also a bug in
the caller, and any such bug would exist regardless of kvm_vcpu_kick()'s
behavior.
The purpose of sending an IPI is purely to get a vCPU into the host (or
out of reading SPTEs) so that the vCPU can recognize a change in state,
e.g. a KVM_REQ_* request. If vCPU's handling of the state change is
required for correctness, KVM must ensure either the vCPU sees the change
before entering the guest, or that the sender sees the vCPU as running in
guest mode. All architectures handle this by (a) sending the request
before calling kvm_vcpu_kick() and (b) checking for requests _after_
setting vcpu->mode.
x86's READING_SHADOW_PAGE_TABLES has similar requirements; KVM needs to
ensure it kicks and waits for vCPUs that started reading SPTEs _before_
MMU changes were finalized, but any vCPU that starts reading after MMU
changes were finalized will see the new state and can continue on
uninterrupted.
For uses of kvm_vcpu_kick() that are not paired with a KVM_REQ_*, e.g.
x86's kvm_arch_sync_dirty_log(), the order of the kick must not be relied
upon for functional correctness, e.g. in the dirty log case, userspace
cannot assume it has a 100% complete log if vCPUs are still running.
All that said, eliminate the benign race since the cost of doing so is an
"extra" atomic cmpxchg() in the case where the target vCPU is loaded by
the current pCPU or is not loaded at all. I.e. the kick will be skipped
due to kvm_vcpu_exiting_guest_mode() seeing a compatible vcpu->mode as
opposed to the kick being skipped because of the cpu checks.
Keep the "cpu != me" checks even though they appear useless/impossible at
first glance. x86 processes guest IPI writes in a fast path that runs in
IN_GUEST_MODE, i.e. can call kvm_vcpu_kick() from IN_GUEST_MODE. And
calling kvm_vm_bugged()->kvm_make_vcpus_request_mask() from IN_GUEST or
READING_SHADOW_PAGE_TABLES is perfectly reasonable.
Note, a race with the cpu_online() check in kvm_vcpu_kick() likely
persists, e.g. the vCPU could exit guest mode and get offlined between
the cpu_online() check and the sending of smp_send_reschedule(). But,
the online check appears to exist only to avoid a WARN in x86's
native_smp_send_reschedule() that fires if the target CPU is not online.
The reschedule WARN exists because CPU offlining takes the CPU out of the
scheduling pool, i.e. the WARN is intended to detect the case where the
kernel attempts to schedule a task on an offline CPU. The actual sending
of the IPI is a non-issue as at worst it will simpy be dropped on the
floor. In other words, KVM's usurping of the reschedule IPI could
theoretically trigger a WARN if the stars align, but there will be no
loss of functionality.

The memslot for a given gfn is looked up multiple times during page
fault handling. Avoid binary searching for it multiple times by caching
the most recently used slot. There is an existing VM-wide last_used_slot
but that does not work well for cases where vCPUs are accessing memory
in different slots (see performance data below).
Another benefit of caching the most recently use slot (versus looking
up the slot once and passing around a pointer) is speeding up memslot
lookups *across* faults and during spte prefetching.
To measure the performance of this change I ran dirty_log_perf_test with
64 vCPUs and 64 memslots and measured "Populate memory time" and
"Iteration 2 dirty memory time". Tests were ran with eptad=N to force
dirty logging to use fast_page_fault so its performance could be
measured.
Config | Metric | Before | After
---------- | ----------------------------- | ------ | ------
tdp_mmu=Y | Populate memory time | 6.76s | 5.47s
tdp_mmu=Y | Iteration 2 dirty memory time | 2.83s | 0.31s
tdp_mmu=N | Populate memory time | 20.4s | 18.7s
tdp_mmu=N | Iteration 2 dirty memory time | 2.65s | 0.30s
The "Iteration 2 dirty memory time" results are especially compelling
because they are equivalent to running the same test with a single
memslot. In other words, fast_page_fault performance no longer scales
with the number of memslots.

lru_slot is used to keep track of the index of the most-recently used
memslot. The correct acronym would be "mru" but that is not a common
acronym. So call it last_used_slot which is a bit more obvious.

KVM creates a debugfs directory for each VM in order to store statistics
about the virtual machine. The directory name is built from the process
pid and a VM fd. While generally unique, it is possible to keep a
file descriptor alive in a way that causes duplicate directories, which
manifests as these messages:
[ 471.846235] debugfs: Directory '20245-4' with parent 'kvm' already present!
Even though this should not happen in practice, it is more or less
expected in the case of KVM for testcases that call KVM_CREATE_VM and
close the resulting file descriptor repeatedly and in parallel.
When this happens, debugfs_create_dir() returns an error but
kvm_create_vm_debugfs() goes on to allocate stat data structs which are
later leaked. The slow memory leak was spotted by syzkaller, where it
caused OOM reports.
Since the issue only affects debugfs, do a lookup before calling
debugfs_create_dir, so that the message is downgraded and rate-limited.
While at it, ensure kvm->debugfs_dentry is NULL rather than an error
if it is not created. This fixes kvm_destroy_vm_debugfs, which was not
checking IS_ERR_OR_NULL correctly.

Avoid taking mmu_lock for .invalidate_range_{start,end}() notifications
that are unrelated to KVM. This is possible now that memslot updates are
blocked from range_start() to range_end(); that ensures that lock elision
happens in both or none, and therefore that mmu_notifier_count updates
(which must occur while holding mmu_lock for write) are always paired
across start->end.
Based on patches originally written by Ben Gardon.

We would like to avoid taking mmu_lock for .invalidate_range_{start,end}()
notifications that are unrelated to KVM. Because mmu_notifier_count
must be modified while holding mmu_lock for write, and must always
be paired across start->end to stay balanced, lock elision must
happen in both or none. Therefore, in preparation for this change,
this patch prevents memslot updates across range_start() and range_end().
Note, technically flag-only memslot updates could be allowed in parallel,
but stalling a memslot update for a relatively short amount of time is
not a scalability issue, and this is all more than complex enough.
A long note on the locking: a previous version of the patch used an rwsem
to block the memslot update while the MMU notifier run, but this resulted
in the following deadlock involving the pseudo-lock tagged as
"mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start".
======================================================
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
5.12.0-rc3+ #6 Tainted: G OE
------------------------------------------------------
qemu-system-x86/3069 is trying to acquire lock:
ffffffff9c775ca0 (mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start){+.+.}-{0:0}, at: __mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end+0x5/0x190
but task is already holding lock:
ffffaff7410a9160 (&kvm->mmu_notifier_slots_lock){.+.+}-{3:3}, at: kvm_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start+0x36d/0x4f0 [kvm]
which lock already depends on the new lock.
This corresponds to the following MMU notifier logic:
invalidate_range_start
take pseudo lock
down_read() (*)
release pseudo lock
invalidate_range_end
take pseudo lock (**)
up_read()
release pseudo lock
At point (*) we take the mmu_notifiers_slots_lock inside the pseudo lock;
at point (**) we take the pseudo lock inside the mmu_notifiers_slots_lock.
This could cause a deadlock (ignoring for a second that the pseudo lock
is not a lock):
- invalidate_range_start waits on down_read(), because the rwsem is
held by install_new_memslots
- install_new_memslots waits on down_write(), because the rwsem is
held till (another) invalidate_range_end finishes
- invalidate_range_end sits waits on the pseudo lock, held by
invalidate_range_start.
Removing the fairness of the rwsem breaks the cycle (in lockdep terms,
it would change the *shared* rwsem readers into *shared recursive*
readers), so open-code the wait using a readers count and a
spinlock. This also allows handling blockable and non-blockable
critical section in the same way.
Losing the rwsem fairness does theoretically allow MMU notifiers to
block install_new_memslots forever. Note that mm/mmu_notifier.c's own
retry scheme in mmu_interval_read_begin also uses wait/wake_up
and is likewise not fair.

therefore it needs a compat ioctl implementation. Otherwise,

SMT siblings share caches and other hardware, and busy halt polling
will degrade its sibling performance if its sibling is working
Sean Christopherson suggested as below:
"Rather than disallowing halt-polling entirely, on x86 it should be
sufficient to simply have the hardware thread yield to its sibling(s)
via PAUSE. It probably won't get back all performance, but I would
expect it to be close.
This compiles on all KVM architectures, and AFAICT the intended usage
of cpu_relax() is identical for all architectures."
