AMD CPUs with the Enhanced Return Address Predictor Security (ERAPS)
feature (available on Zen5+) obviate the need for FILL_RETURN_BUFFER
sequences right after VMEXITs. ERAPS adds guest/host tags to entries in
the RSB (a.k.a. RAP). This helps with speculation protection across the
VM boundary, and it also preserves host and guest entries in the RSB that
can improve software performance (which would otherwise be flushed due to
the FILL_RETURN_BUFFER sequences).
Importantly, ERAPS also improves cross-domain security by clearing the RAP
in certain situations. Specifically, the RAP is cleared in response to
actions that are typically tied to software context switching between
tasks. Per the APM:
The ERAPS feature eliminates the need to execute CALL instructions to
clear the return address predictor in most cases. On processors that
support ERAPS, return addresses from CALL instructions executed in host
mode are not used in guest mode, and vice versa. Additionally, the
return address predictor is cleared in all cases when the TLB is
implicitly invalidated and in the following cases:
• MOV CR3 instruction
• INVPCID other than single address invalidation (operation type 0)
ERAPS also allows CPUs to extends the size of the RSB/RAP from the older
standard (of 32 entries) to a new size, enumerated in CPUID leaf
0x80000021:EBX bits 23:16 (64 entries in Zen5 CPUs).
In hardware, ERAPS is always-on, when running in host context, the CPU
uses the full RSB/RAP size without any software changes necessary.
However, when running in guest context, the CPU utilizes the full size of
the RSB/RAP if and only if the new ALLOW_LARGER_RAP flag is set in the
VMCB; if the flag is not set, the CPU limits itself to the historical size
of 32 entires.
Requiring software to opt-in for guest usage of RAPs larger than 32 entries
allows hypervisors, i.e. KVM, to emulate the aforementioned conditions in
which the RAP is cleared as well as the guest/host split. E.g. if the CPU
unconditionally used the full RAP for guests, failure to clear the RAP on
transitions between L1 or L2, or on emulated guest TLB flushes, would
expose the guest to RAP-based attacks as a guest without support for ERAPS
wouldn't know that its FILL_RETURN_BUFFER sequence is insufficient.
Address the ~two broad categories of ERAPS emulation, and advertise
ERAPS support to userspace, along with the RAP size enumerated in CPUID.
1. Architectural RAP clearing: as above, CPUs with ERAPS clear RAP entries
on several conditions, including CR3 updates. To handle scenarios
where a relevant operation is handled in common code (emulation of
INVPCID and to a lesser extent MOV CR3), piggyback VCPU_EXREG_CR3 and
create an alias, VCPU_EXREG_ERAPS. SVM doesn't utilize CR3 dirty
tracking, and so for all intents and purposes VCPU_EXREG_CR3 is unused.
Aliasing VCPU_EXREG_ERAPS ensures that any flow that writes CR3 will
also clear the guest's RAP, and allows common x86 to mark ERAPS vCPUs
as needing a RAP clear without having to add a new request (or other
mechanism).
2. Nested guests: the ERAPS feature adds host/guest tagging to entries
in the RSB, but does not distinguish between the guest ASIDs. To
prevent the case of an L2 guest poisoning the RSB to attack the L1
guest, the CPU exposes a new VMCB bit (CLEAR_RAP). The next
VMRUN with a VMCB that has this bit set causes the CPU to flush the
RSB before entering the guest context. Set the bit in VMCB01 after a
nested #VMEXIT to ensure the next time the L1 guest runs, its RSB
contents aren't polluted by the L2's contents. Similarly, before
entry into a nested guest, set the bit for VMCB02, so that the L1
guest's RSB contents are not leaked/used in the L2 context.
Enable ALLOW_LARGER_RAP (and emulate RAP clears) if and only if ERAPS is
exposed to the guest. Enabling ALLOW_LARGER_RAP unconditionally wouldn't
cause any functional issues, but ignoring userspace's (and L1's) desires
would put KVM into a grey area, which is especially undesirable due to the
potential security implications. E.g. if a use case wants to have L1 do
manual RAP clearing even when ERAPS is present in hardware, enabling
ALLOW_LARGER_RAP could result in L1 leaving stale entries in the RAP.
ERAPS is documented in AMD APM Vol 2 (Pub 24593), in revisions 3.43 and
later.

If a feature is not advertised in the guest's CPUID, prevent L1 from
intercepting the unsupported instructions by clearing the corresponding
intercept in KVM's cached vmcb12.
When an L2 guest executes an instruction that is not advertised to L1,
we expect a #UD exception to be injected by L0. However, the nested svm
exit handler first checks if the instruction intercept is set in vmcb12,
and if so, synthesizes an exit from L2 to L1 instead of a #UD exception.
If a feature is not advertised, the L1 intercept should be ignored.
While creating KVM's cached vmcb12, sanitize the intercepts for
instructions that are not advertised in the guest CPUID. This
effectively ignores the L1 intercept on nested vm exit handling. It also
ignores the L1 intercept when computing the intercepts in vmcb02, so if
L0 (for some reason) does not intercept the instruction, KVM won't
intercept it at all.

Wire up SVM's #NPF handler to fast MMIO. While SVM doesn't provide a
dedicated exit reason, it's trivial to key off PFERR_RSVD_MASK. Like VMX,
restrict the fast path to L1 to avoid having to deal with nGPA=>GPA
translations.
For simplicity, use the fast path if and only if the next RIP is known.
While KVM could utilize EMULTYPE_SKIP, doing so would require additional
logic to deal with SEV guests, e.g. to go down the slow path if the
instruction buffer is empty. All modern CPUs support next RIP, and in
practice the next RIP will be available for any guest fast path.
Copy+paste the kvm_io_bus_write() + trace_kvm_fast_mmio() logic even
though KVM would ideally provide a small helper, as such a helper would
need to either be a macro or non-inline to avoid including trace.h in a
header (trace.h must not be included by x86.c prior to CREATE_TRACE_POINTS
being defined).

Don't read guest CR3 in kvm_arch_setup_async_pf() if the MMU is direct
and use INVALID_GPA instead.
When KVM tries to perform the host-only async page fault for the shared
memory of TDX guests, the following WARNING is triggered:
WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 90922 at arch/x86/kvm/vmx/main.c:483 vt_cache_reg+0x16/0x20

This WARNING is triggered when calling kvm_mmu_get_guest_pgd() to cache
the guest CR3 in kvm_arch_setup_async_pf() for later use in
kvm_arch_async_page_ready() to determine if it's possible to fix the
page fault in the current vCPU context to save one VM exit. However, when
guest state is protected, KVM cannot read the guest CR3.
Since protected guests aren't compatible with shadow paging, i.e, they
must use direct MMU, avoid calling kvm_mmu_get_guest_pgd() to read guest
CR3 when the MMU is direct and use INVALID_GPA instead.
Note that for protected guests mmu->root_role.direct is always true, so
that kvm_mmu_get_guest_pgd() in kvm_arch_async_page_ready() won't be
reached.

Rework tdp_map() and friends to use __virt_pg_map() and drop the custom
EPT code in __tdp_pg_map() and tdp_create_pte(). The EPT code and
__virt_pg_map() are practically identical, the main differences are:
- EPT uses the EPT struct overlay instead of the PTE masks.
- EPT always assumes 4-level EPTs.
To reuse __virt_pg_map(), extend the PTE masks to work with EPT's RWX and
X-only capabilities, and provide a tdp_mmu_init() API so that EPT can pass
in the EPT PTE masks along with the root page level (which is currently
hardcoded to '4').
Don't reuse KVM's insane overloading of the USER bit for EPT_R as there's
no reason to multiplex bits in the selftests, e.g. selftests aren't trying
to shadow guest PTEs and thus don't care about funnelling protections into
a common permissions check.
Another benefit of reusing the code is having separate handling for
upper-level PTEs vs 4K PTEs, which avoids some quirks like setting the
large bit on a 4K PTE in the EPTs.
For all intents and purposes, no functional change intended.

prepare_eptp() currently allocates new EPTs for each vCPU. memstress has
its own hack to share the EPTs between vCPUs. Currently, there is no
reason to have separate EPTs for each vCPU, and the complexity is
significant. The only reason it doesn't matter now is because memstress
is the only user with multiple vCPUs.
Add vm_enable_ept() to allocate EPT page tables for an entire VM, and use
it everywhere to replace prepare_eptp(). Drop 'eptp' and 'eptp_hva' from
'struct vmx_pages' as they serve no purpose (e.g. the EPTP can be built
from the PGD), but keep 'eptp_gpa' so that the MMU structure doesn't need
to be passed in along with vmx_pages. Dynamically allocate the TDP MMU
structure to avoid a cyclical dependency between kvm_util_arch.h and
kvm_util.h.
Remove the workaround in memstress to copy the EPT root between vCPUs
since that's now the default behavior.
Name the MMU tdp_mmu instead of e.g. nested_mmu or nested.mmu to avoid

Stop setting Accessed/Dirty bits when creating EPT entries for L2 so that
the stage-1 and stage-2 (a.k.a. TDP) page table APIs can use common code
without bleeding the EPT hack into the common APIs.
While commit 094444204570 ("selftests: kvm: add test for dirty logging
inside nested guests") is _very_ light on details, the most likely
explanation is that vmx_dirty_log_test was attempting to avoid taking an
EPT Violation on the first _write_ from L2.
static void l2_guest_code(u64 *a, u64 *b)
{
READ_ONCE(*a);
WRITE_ONCE(*a, 1); <===
GUEST_SYNC(true);
...
}
When handling read faults in the shadow MMU, KVM opportunistically creates
a writable SPTE if the mapping can be writable *and* the gPTE is dirty (or
doesn't support the Dirty bit), i.e. if KVM doesn't need to intercept
writes in order to emulate Dirty-bit updates. By setting A/D bits in the
test's EPT entries, the above READ+WRITE will fault only on the read, and
in theory expose the bug fixed by KVM commit 1f4e5fc83a42 ("KVM: x86: fix
nested guest live migration with PML"). If the Dirty bit is NOT set, the
test will get a false pass due; though again, in theory.
However, the test is flawed (and always was, at least in the versions
posted publicly), as KVM (correctly) marks the corresponding L1 GFN as
dirty (in the dirty bitmap) when creating the writable SPTE. I.e. without
a check on the dirty bitmap after the READ_ONCE(), the check after the
first WRITE_ONCE() will get a false pass due to the dirty bitmap/log having
been updated by the read fault, not by PML.
Furthermore, the subsequent behavior in the test's l2_guest_code()
effectively hides the flawed test behavior, as the straight writes to a
new L2 GPA fault also trigger the KVM bug, and so the test will still
detect the failure due to lack of isolation between the two testcases
(Read=>Write vs. Write=>Write).
WRITE_ONCE(*b, 1);
GUEST_SYNC(true);
WRITE_ONCE(*b, 1);
GUEST_SYNC(true);
GUEST_SYNC(false);
Punt on fixing vmx_dirty_log_test for the moment as it will be easier to
properly fix the test once the TDP code uses the common MMU APIs, at which
point it will be trivially easy for the test to retrieve the EPT PTE and
set the Dirty bit as needed.

On x86, KVM selftests use memslot 0 for all the default regions used by
the test infrastructure. This is an implementation detail.
nested_map_memslot() is currently used to map the default regions by
explicitly passing slot 0, which leaks the library implementation into
the caller.
Rename the function to a very verbose
nested_identity_map_default_memslots() to reflect what it actually does.
Add an assertion that only memslot 0 is being used so that the
implementation does not change from under us.

The function get_desc64_base() performs a series of bitwise left shifts on
fields of various sizes. More specifically, when performing '<< 24' on
'desc->base2' (which is a u8), 'base2' is promoted to a signed integer
before shifting.
In a scenario where base2 >= 0x80, the shift places a 1 into bit 31,
causing the 32-bit intermediate value to become negative. When this
result is cast to uint64_t or ORed into the return value, sign extension
occurs, corrupting the upper 32 bits of the address (base3).
Example:
Given:
base0 = 0x5000
base1 = 0xd6
base2 = 0xf8
base3 = 0xfffffe7c
Expected return: 0xfffffe7cf8d65000
Actual return: 0xfffffffff8d65000
Fix this by explicitly casting the fields to 'uint64_t' before shifting
to prevent sign extension.

PV MSR
Return KVM_MSR_RET_UNSUPPORTED instead of '1' (which for all intents and
purposes means "invalid") when rejecting accesses to KVM PV MSRs to adhere
to KVM's ABI of allowing host reads and writes of '0' to MSRs that are
advertised to userspace via KVM_GET_MSR_INDEX_LIST, even if the vCPU model
doesn't support the MSR.
E.g. running a QEMU VM with
-cpu host,-kvmclock,kvm-pv-enforce-cpuid
yields:
qemu: error: failed to set MSR 0x12 to 0x0

as dirty. This will allow marking the APIC access page (and any future

When establishing a "host access map", lookup the gfn in the vCPU specific
memslots, as the intent is that the mapping will be established for the
current vCPU context. Specifically, using __kvm_vcpu_map() in x86's SMM
context should create mappings based on the SMM memslots, not the non-SMM
memslots.
Luckily, the bug is benign as x86 is the only architecture with multiple
memslot address spaces, and all of x86's usage is limited to non-SMM. The
calls in (or reachable by) {svm,vmx}_enter_smm() are made before
enter_smm() sets HF_SMM_MASK, and the calls in {svm,vmx}_leave_smm() are
made after emulator_leave_smm() clears HF_SMM_MASK.
Note, kvm_vcpu_unmap() uses the vCPU specific memslots, only the map() side
of things is broken.

Extend mediated PMU support for Intel CPUs without support for saving
PERF_GLOBAL_CONTROL into the guest VMCS field on VM-Exit, e.g. for Skylake
and its derivatives, as well as Icelake. While supporting CPUs without
VM_EXIT_SAVE_IA32_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL isn't completely trivial, it's not that
complex either. And not supporting such CPUs would mean not supporting 7+
years of Intel CPUs released in the past 10 years.
On VM-Exit, immediately propagate the saved PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL to the VMCS
as well as KVM's software cache so that KVM doesn't need to add full EXREG
tracking of PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL. In practice, the vast majority of VM-Exits
won't trigger software writes to guest PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL, so deferring the
VMWRITE to the next VM-Enter would only delay the inevitable without
batching/avoiding VMWRITEs.
Note! Take care to refresh VM_EXIT_MSR_STORE_COUNT on nested VM-Exit, as
it's unfortunately possible that KVM could recalculate MSR intercepts
while L2 is active, e.g. if userspace loads nested state and _then_ sets
PERF_CAPABILITIES. Eating the VMWRITE on every nested VM-Exit is
unfortunate, but that's a pre-existing problem and can/should be solved
separately, e.g. modifying the number of auto-load entries while L2 is
active is also uncommon on modern CPUs.

Initialize vmcs01.VM_EXIT_MSR_STORE_ADDR to point at the vCPU's
msr_autostore list in anticipation of utilizing the auto-store
functionality, and to harden KVM against stray reads to pfn 0 (or, in
theory, a random pfn if the underlying CPU uses a complex scheme for
encoding VMCS data). The MSR auto lists are supposed to be ignored if the
associated COUNT VMCS field is '0', but leaving the ADDR field
zero-initialized in memory is an unnecessary risk (albeit a minuscule risk)
given that the cost is a single VMWRITE during vCPU creation.

When adding an MSR to the auto-load lists, update the MSR index in the

be non-negative if vmx_find_loadstore_msr_slot() found an entry with the

WARN and bug the VM if either MSR auto-load list is full when adding an
MSR to the lists, as the set of MSRs that KVM loads via the lists is
finite and entirely KVM controlled, i.e. overflowing the lists shouldn't
be possible in a fully released version of KVM. Terminate the VM as the
core KVM infrastructure has no insight as to _why_ an MSR is being added
to the list, and failure to load an MSR on VM-Enter and/or VM-Exit could
be fatal to the host. E.g. running the host with a guest-controlled PEBS
MSR could generate unexpected writes to the DS buffer and crash the host.

Drop the "on VM-Enter only" parameter from add_atomic_switch_msr() as it
is no longer used, and for all intents and purposes was never used. The
functionality was added, under embargo, by commit 989e3992d2ec
("x86/KVM/VMX: Extend add_atomic_switch_msr() to allow VMENTER only MSRs"),
and then ripped out by commit 2f055947ae5e ("x86/kvm: Drop L1TF MSR list

989e3992d2ec x86/KVM/VMX: Extend add_atomic_switch_msr() to allow VMENTER only MSRs
Furthermore, it's extremely unlikely KVM will ever _need_ to load an MSR
value via the auto-load lists only on VM-Enter. MSRs writes via the lists
aren't optimized in any way, and so the only reason to use the lists
instead of a WRMSR are for cases where the MSR _must_ be load atomically
with respect to VM-Enter (and/or VM-Exit). While one could argue that
command MSRs, e.g. IA32_FLUSH_CMD, "need" to be done exact at VM-Enter, in
practice doing such flushes within a few instructons of VM-Enter is more
than sufficient.
Note, the shortlog and changelog for commit 390d975e0c4e ("x86/KVM/VMX: Use
MSR save list for IA32_FLUSH_CMD if required") are misleading and wrong.
That commit added MSR_IA32_FLUSH_CMD to the VM-Enter _load_ list, not the
VM-Enter save list (which doesn't exist, only VM-Exit has a store/save
list).

Rework nVMX's use of the MSR auto-store list to snapshot TSC to sneak
MSR_IA32_TSC into the list _without_ updating KVM's software tracking,
and drop the generic functionality so that future usage of the store list
for nested specific logic needs to consider the implications of modifying
the list. Updating the list only for vmcs02 and only on nested VM-Enter
is a disaster waiting to happen, as it means vmcs01 is stale relative to
the software tracking, and KVM could unintentionally leave an MSR in the
store list in perpetuity while running L1, e.g. if KVM addressed the first
issue and updated vmcs01 on nested VM-Exit without removing TSC from the
list.
Furthermore, mixing KVM's desire to save an MSR with L1's desire to save
an MSR result KVM clobbering/ignoring the needs of vmcs01 or vmcs02.
E.g. if KVM added MSR_IA32_TSC to the store list for its own purposes, and
then _removed_ MSR_IA32_TSC from the list after emulating nested VM-Enter,
then KVM would remove MSR_IA32_TSC from the list even though saving TSC on
VM-Exit from L2 is still desirable (to provide L1 with an accurate TSC).
Similarly, removing an MSR from the list based on vmcs12's settings could
drop an MSR that KVM wants to save for its own purposes.
In practice, the issues are currently benign, because KVM doesn't use the
store list for vmcs01. But that will change with upcoming mediated PMU
support.
Alternatively, a "full" solution would be to track MSR list entries for
vmcs12 separately from KVM's standard lists, but MSR_IA32_TSC is likely
the only MSR that KVM would ever want to save on _every_ VM-Exit purely
based on vmcs12. I.e. the added complexity isn't remotely justified at
this time.
Opportunistically escalate from a pr_warn_ratelimited() to a full WARN as
KVM reserves eight entries in each MSR list, and as above KVM uses at most
one entry.
Opportunistically make vmx_find_loadstore_msr_slot() local to vmx.c as
using it directly from nested code is unsafe due to the potential for
mixing vmcs01 and vmcs02 state (see above).

use of the store list at the momemnt is to snapshot TSC at VM-Exit, and
the value saved is always the raw TSC even if TSC-offseting and/or
TSC-scaling is enabled for the guest.
And unlike msr_autoload, there is no need differentiate between "on-entry"
and "on-exit".

When loading a mediated PMU state, elide the WRMSRs to load PMCs with the
guest's value if the value in hardware already matches the guest's value.
For the relatively common case where neither the guest nor the host is
actively using the PMU, i.e. when all/many counters are '0', eliding the
WRMSRs reduces the latency of handling VM-Exit by a measurable amount
(WRMSR is significantly more expensive than RDPMC).
As measured by KVM-Unit-Tests' CPUID VM-Exit testcase, this provides a
a ~25% reduction in latency (4k => 3k cycles) on Intel Emerald Rapids,
and a ~13% reduction (6.2k => 5.3k cycles) on AMD Turin.
