So far, the loop bodies already ensure the PTE is present before calling
__shadow_walk_next(): Some loop bodies simply exit with a !PRESENT
directly and some other loop bodies, i.e. FNAME(fetch) and __direct_map()
do not currently guard their walks with is_shadow_present_pte, but only
because they install present non-leaf SPTEs in the loop itself.
But checking pte present in __shadow_walk_next() (which is called from
shadow_walk_okay()) is more prudent; walking past a !PRESENT SPTE
would lead to attempting to read a the next level SPTE from a garbage
iter->shadow_addr. It also allows to remove the is_shadow_present_pte()
checks from the loop bodies.

After any shadow page modification, flushing tlb only on current VCPU
is weird due to other VCPU's tlb might still be stale.
In other words, if there is any mandatory tlb-flushing after shadow page
modification, SET_SPTE_NEED_REMOTE_TLB_FLUSH or remote_flush should be
set and the tlbs of all VCPUs should be flushed. There is not point to
only flush current tlb except when the request is from vCPU's or pCPU's
activities.
If there was any bug that mandatory tlb-flushing is required and
SET_SPTE_NEED_REMOTE_TLB_FLUSH/remote_flush is failed to set, this patch
would expose the bug in a more destructive way. The related code paths
are checked and no missing SET_SPTE_NEED_REMOTE_TLB_FLUSH is found yet.
Currently, there is no optional tlb-flushing after sync page related code
is changed to flush tlb timely. So we can just remove these local flushing
code.

Make a final call to direct_pte_prefetch_many() if there are "trailing"
SPTEs to prefetch, i.e. SPTEs for GFNs following the faulting GFN. The
call to direct_pte_prefetch_many() in the loop only handles the case
where there are !PRESENT SPTEs preceding a PRESENT SPTE.
E.g. if the faulting GFN is a multiple of 8 (the prefetch size) and all
SPTEs for the following GFNs are !PRESENT, the loop will terminate with
"start = sptep+1" and not prefetch any SPTEs.
Prefetching trailing SPTEs as intended can drastically reduce the number
of guest page faults, e.g. accessing the first byte of every 4kb page in
a 6gb chunk of virtual memory, in a VM with 8gb of preallocated memory,
the number of pf_fixed events observed in L0 drops from ~1.75M to <0.27M.
Note, this only affects memory that is backed by 4kb pages as KVM doesn't
prefetch when installing hugepages. Shadow paging prefetching is not
affected as it does not batch the prefetches due to the need to process
the corresponding guest PTE. The TDP MMU is not affected because it
doesn't have prefetching, yet...

If gpte is changed from non-present to present, the guest doesn't need
to flush tlb per SDM. So the host must synchronze sp before
link it. Otherwise the guest might use a wrong mapping.
For example: the guest first changes a level-1 pagetable, and then
links its parent to a new place where the original gpte is non-present.
Finally the guest can access the remapped area without flushing
the tlb. The guest's behavior should be allowed per SDM, but the host
kvm mmu makes it wrong.

It is reasonable for these functions to be used only in some configurations,
for example only if the host is 64-bits (and therefore supports 64-bit

Because clang reports warnings for unused inlines declared in a .c file,

The bug has escaped notice because practically speaking the GPA check is
useless. The GPA check in question only comes into play when KVM is
walking guest page tables (or "translating" CR3), and KVM already handles
illegal GPA checks by setting reserved bits in rsvd_bits_mask for each
PxE, or in the case of CR3 for loading PTDPTRs, manually checks for an
illegal CR3. This particular failure doesn't hit the existing reserved
bits checks because syzbot sets guest.MAXPHYADDR=1, and IA32 architecture
simply doesn't allow for such an absurd MAXPHYADDR, e.g. 32-bit paging
doesn't define any reserved PA bits checks, which KVM emulates by only
incorporating the reserved PA bits into the "high" bits, i.e. bits 63:32.
Simply remove the bogus check. There is zero meaningful value and no
architectural justification for supporting guest.MAXPHYADDR < 32, and
properly filling the exception would introduce non-trivial complexity.

Include pml5_root in the set of special roots if and only if the host,

special roots to be allocated as a bundle, i.e. they're either all valid
or all NULL. But for pml5_root, that expectation only holds true if the
host uses 5-level paging, which causes KVM to WARN about pml5_root being
NULL when the other special roots are valid.
The silver lining of 4-level vs. 5-level NPT being tied to the host
kernel's paging level is that KVM's shadow root level is constant; unlike
VMX's EPT, KVM can't choose 4-level NPT based on guest.MAXPHYADDR. That
means KVM can still expect pml5_root to be bundled with the other special
roots, it just needs to be conditioned on the shadow root level.

This change started as a way to make kvm_mmu_hugepage_adjust a bit simpler,
but it does fix two bugs as well.
One bug is in zapping collapsible PTEs. If a large page size is
disallowed but not all of them, kvm_mmu_max_mapping_level will return the
host mapping level and the small PTEs will be zapped up to that level.
However, if e.g. 1GB are prohibited, we can still zap 4KB mapping and
preserve the 2MB ones. This can happen for example when NX huge pages
are in use.
The second would happen when userspace backs guest memory
with a 1gb hugepage but only assign a subset of the page to
the guest. 1gb pages would be disallowed by the memslot, but
not 2mb. kvm_mmu_max_mapping_level() would fall through to the
host_pfn_mapping_level() logic, see the 1gb hugepage, and map the whole
thing into the guest.

So remove the lpages since it is easy for user space to aggregate the info.
Instead, provide a comprehensive page stats of all sizes from 4K to 512G.

on AMD, APIC virtualization needs to dynamicaly inhibit the AVIC in a
response to some events, and this is problematic and not efficient to do by
enabling/disabling the memslot that covers APIC's mmio range.
Plus due to SRCU locking, it makes it more complex to
request AVIC inhibition.
Instead, the APIC memslot will be always enabled, but be invisible
to the guest, such as the MMU code will not install a SPTE for it,
when it is inhibited and instead jump straight to emulating the access.
When inhibiting the AVIC, this SPTE will be zapped.

Add yet another spinlock for the TDP MMU and take it when marking indirect
shadow pages unsync. When using the TDP MMU and L1 is running L2(s) with
nested TDP, KVM may encounter shadow pages for the TDP entries managed by
L1 (controlling L2) when handling a TDP MMU page fault. The unsync logic
is not thread safe, e.g. the kvm_mmu_page fields are not atomic, and
misbehaves when a shadow page is marked unsync via a TDP MMU page fault,
which runs with mmu_lock held for read, not write.
Lack of a critical section manifests most visibly as an underflow of
unsync_children in clear_unsync_child_bit() due to unsync_children being
corrupted when multiple CPUs write it without a critical section and
without atomic operations. But underflow is the best case scenario. The
worst case scenario is that unsync_children prematurely hits '0' and
leads to guest memory corruption due to KVM neglecting to properly sync
shadow pages.
Use an entirely new spinlock even though piggybacking tdp_mmu_pages_lock
would functionally be ok. Usurping the lock could degrade performance when
building upper level page tables on different vCPUs, especially since the
unsync flow could hold the lock for a comparatively long time depending on
the number of indirect shadow pages and the depth of the paging tree.
For simplicity, take the lock for all MMUs, even though KVM could fairly
easily know that mmu_lock is held for write. If mmu_lock is held for
write, there cannot be contention for the inner spinlock, and marking
shadow pages unsync across multiple vCPUs will be slow enough that
bouncing the kvm_arch cacheline should be in the noise.
Note, even though L2 could theoretically be given access to its own EPT
entries, a nested MMU must hold mmu_lock for write and thus cannot race
against a TDP MMU page fault. I.e. the additional spinlock only _needs_ to
be taken by the TDP MMU, as opposed to being taken by any MMU for a VM
that is running with the TDP MMU enabled. Holding mmu_lock for read also
prevents the indirect shadow page from being freed. But as above, keep
it simple and always take the lock.
Alternative #1, the TDP MMU could simply pass "false" for can_unsync and
effectively disable unsync behavior for nested TDP. Write protecting leaf
shadow pages is unlikely to noticeably impact traditional L1 VMMs, as such
VMMs typically don't modify TDP entries, but the same may not hold true for
non-standard use cases and/or VMMs that are migrating physical pages (from
L1's perspective).
Alternative #2, the unsync logic could be made thread safe. In theory,
simply converting all relevant kvm_mmu_page fields to atomics and using
atomic bitops for the bitmap would suffice. However, (a) an in-depth audit
would be required, (b) the code churn would be substantial, and (c) legacy
shadow paging would incur additional atomic operations in performance
sensitive paths for no benefit (to legacy shadow paging).

Take a signed 'long' instead of an 'unsigned long' for the number of
pages to add/subtract to the total number of pages used by the MMU. This
fixes a zero-extension bug on 32-bit kernels that effectively corrupts
the per-cpu counter used by the shrinker.
Per-cpu counters take a signed 64-bit value on both 32-bit and 64-bit
kernels, whereas kvm_mod_used_mmu_pages() takes an unsigned long and thus
an unsigned 32-bit value on 32-bit kernels. As a result, the value used
to adjust the per-cpu counter is zero-extended (unsigned -> signed), not
sign-extended (signed -> signed), and so KVM's intended -1 gets morphed to
4294967295 and effectively corrupts the counter.
This was found by a staggering amount of sheer dumb luck when running
kvm-unit-tests on a 32-bit KVM build. The shrinker just happened to kick
in while running tests and do_shrink_slab() logged an error about trying
to free a negative number of objects. The truly lucky part is that the
kernel just happened to be a slightly stale build, as the shrinker no
longer yells about negative objects as of commit 18bb473e50 ("mm:

Add a counter field into pte_list_desc, so as to simplify the add/remove/loop
logic. E.g., we don't need to loop over the array any more for most reasons.
This will make more sense after we've switched the array size to be larger
otherwise the counter will be a waste.
Initially I wanted to store a tail pointer at the head of the array list so we
don't need to traverse the list at least for pushing new ones (if without the
counter we traverse both the list and the array). However that'll need
slightly more change without a huge lot benefit, e.g., after we grow entry
numbers per array the list traversing is not so expensive.
So let's be simple but still try to get as much benefit as we can with just

If we do some more fork some pages will grow even larger rmap counts.
This patch makes PTE_LIST_EXT bigger so it'll be more efficient for the general
use case of EPT=N as we do list reference less and the loops over PTE_LIST_EXT
will be slightly more efficient; but still not too large so less waste when
array not full.
It should not affecting EPT=Y since EPT normally only has zero or one rmap
entry for each page, so no array is even allocated.
With a test case to fork 500 child and recycle them ("./rmap_fork 500" [1]),
this patch speeds up fork time of about 29%.

As alluded to in commit f36f3f2846 ("KVM: add "new" argument to
kvm_arch_commit_memory_region"), a bunch of other places where struct
kvm_memory_slot is used, needs to be refactored to preserve the
"const"ness of struct kvm_memory_slot across-the-board.

Acquire the RCU read lock in walk_shadow_page_lockless_begin and release
it in walk_shadow_page_lockless_end when the TDP MMU is enabled. This
should not introduce any functional changes but is used in the following
commit to make fast_page_fault interoperate with the TDP MMU.

Ignore "dynamic" host adjustments to the physical address mask when
generating the masks for guest PTEs, i.e. the guest PA masks. The host
physical address space and guest physical address space are two different
beasts, e.g. even though SEV's C-bit is the same bit location for both
host and guest, disabling SME in the host (which clears shadow_me_mask)
does not affect the guest PTE->GPA "translation".
For non-SEV guests, not dropping bits is the correct behavior. Assuming
KVM and userspace correctly enumerate/configure guest MAXPHYADDR, bits
that are lost as collateral damage from memory encryption are treated as
reserved bits, i.e. KVM will never get to the point where it attempts to
generate a gfn using the affected bits. And if userspace wants to create
a bogus vCPU, then userspace gets to deal with the fallout of hardware
doing odd things with bad GPAs.
For SEV guests, not dropping the C-bit is technically wrong, but it's a
moot point because KVM can't read SEV guest's page tables in any case
since they're always encrypted. Not to mention that the current KVM code
is also broken since sme_me_mask does not have to be non-zero for SEV to
be supported by KVM. The proper fix would be to teach all of KVM to
correctly handle guest private memory, but that's a task for the future.

Let the guest use 1g hugepages if TDP is enabled and the host supports
GBPAGES, KVM can't actively prevent the guest from using 1g pages in this
case since they can't be disabled in the hardware page walker. While
injecting a page fault if a bogus 1g page is encountered during a
software page walk is perfectly reasonable since KVM is simply honoring
userspace's vCPU model, doing so arguably doesn't provide any meaningful
value, and at worst will be horribly confusing as the guest will see
inconsistent behavior and seemingly spurious page faults.
