There is no easy way to force KVM to run an instruction through the emulator
(by design as that will expose the x86 emulator as a significant attack-surface).
However, we do wish to expose the x86 emulator in case we are testing it
(e.g. via kvm-unit-tests). Therefore, this patch adds a "force emulation prefix"
that is designed to raise #UD which KVM will trap and it's #UD exit-handler will
match "force emulation prefix" to run instruction after prefix by the x86 emulator.
To not expose the x86 emulator by default, we add a module parameter that should
be off by default.
A simple testcase here:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#define HYPERVISOR_INFO 0x40000000
#define CPUID(idx, eax, ebx, ecx, edx) \
asm volatile (\

Remove the WARN_ON in handle_ept_misconfig() as it is unnecessary
and causes false positives. Return the unmodified result of
kvm_mmu_page_fault() instead of converting a system error code to
KVM_EXIT_UNKNOWN so that userspace sees the error code of the
actual failure, not a generic "we don't know what went wrong".
* kvm_mmu_page_fault() will WARN if reserved bits are set in the
SPTEs, i.e. it covers the case where an EPT misconfig occurred
because of a KVM bug.
* The WARN_ON will fire on any system error code that is hit while
handling the fault, e.g. -ENOMEM from mmu_topup_memory_caches()
while handling a legitmate MMIO EPT misconfig or -EFAULT from
kvm_handle_bad_page() if the corresponding HVA is invalid. In
either case, userspace should receive the original error code
and firing a warning is incorrect behavior as KVM is operating
as designed.

The bug that led to commit 95e057e258
was a benign warning (no adverse affects other than the warning
itself) that was detected by syzkaller. Further inspection shows
that the WARN_ON in question, in handle_ept_misconfig(), is
unnecessary and flawed (this was also briefly discussed in the
original patch: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10204649).
* The WARN_ON is unnecessary as kvm_mmu_page_fault() will WARN
if reserved bits are set in the SPTEs, i.e. it covers the case
where an EPT misconfig occurred because of a KVM bug.
* The WARN_ON is flawed because it will fire on any system error
code that is hit while handling the fault, e.g. -ENOMEM can be
returned by mmu_topup_memory_caches() while handling a legitmate
MMIO EPT misconfig.
The original behavior of returning -EFAULT when userspace munmaps
an HVA without first removing the memslot is correct and desirable,
i.e. KVM is letting userspace know it has generated a bad address.
Returning RET_PF_EMULATE masks the WARN_ON in the EPT misconfig path,
but does not fix the underlying bug, i.e. the WARN_ON is bogus.
Furthermore, returning RET_PF_EMULATE has the unwanted side effect of
causing KVM to attempt to emulate an instruction on any page fault
with an invalid HVA translation, e.g. a not-present EPT violation
on a VM_PFNMAP VMA whose fault handler failed to insert a PFN.
* There is no guarantee that the fault is directly related to the
instruction, i.e. the fault could have been triggered by a side
effect memory access in the guest, e.g. while vectoring a #DB or
writing a tracing record. This could cause KVM to effectively
mask the fault if KVM doesn't model the behavior leading to the
fault, i.e. emulation could succeed and resume the guest.
* If emulation does fail, KVM will return EMULATION_FAILED instead
of -EFAULT, which is a red herring as the user will either debug
a bogus emulation attempt or scratch their head wondering why we
were attempting emulation in the first place.
TL;DR: revert to returning -EFAULT and remove the bogus WARN_ON in
handle_ept_misconfig in a future patch.

Exit to userspace with KVM_INTERNAL_ERROR_EMULATION if we encounter
an exception in Protected Mode while emulating guest due to invalid
guest state. Unlike Big RM, KVM doesn't support emulating exceptions
in PM, i.e. PM exceptions are always injected via the VMCS. Because
we will never do VMRESUME due to emulation_required, the exception is
never realized and we'll keep emulating the faulting instruction over
and over until we receive a signal.
Exit to userspace iff there is a pending exception, i.e. don't exit
simply on a requested event. The purpose of this check and exit is to
aid in debugging a guest that is in all likelihood already doomed.
Invalid guest state in PM is extremely limited in normal operation,
e.g. it generally only occurs for a few instructions early in BIOS,
and any exception at this time is all but guaranteed to be fatal.
Non-vectored interrupts, e.g. INIT, SIPI and SMI, can be cleanly
handled/emulated, while checking for vectored interrupts, e.g. INTR
and NMI, without hitting false positives would add a fair amount of
complexity for almost no benefit (getting hit by lightning seems
more likely than encountering this specific scenario).
Add a WARN_ON_ONCE to vmx_queue_exception() if we try to inject an
exception via the VMCS and emulation_required is true.

When vCPU runs L2 and there is a pending event that requires to exit
from L2 to L1 and nested_run_pending=1, vcpu_enter_guest() will request
an immediate-exit from L2 (See req_immediate_exit).
Since now handling of req_immediate_exit also makes sure to set
KVM_REQ_EVENT, there is no need to also set it on vmx_vcpu_run() when
nested_run_pending=1.
This optimizes cases where VMRESUME was executed by L1 to enter L2 and
there is no pending events that require exit from L2 to L1. Previously,
this would have set KVM_REQ_EVENT unnecessarly.

In case L2 VMExit to L0 during event-delivery, VMCS02 is filled with
IDT-vectoring-info which vmx_complete_interrupts() makes sure to
reinject before next resume of L2.
While handling the VMExit in L0, an IPI could be sent by another L1 vCPU
to the L1 vCPU which currently runs L2 and exited to L0.
When L0 will reach vcpu_enter_guest() and call inject_pending_event(),
it will note that a previous event was re-injected to L2 (by
IDT-vectoring-info) and therefore won't check if there are pending L1
events which require exit from L2 to L1. Thus, L0 enters L2 without
immediate VMExit even though there are pending L1 events!
This commit fixes the issue by making sure to check for L1 pending
events even if a previous event was reinjected to L2 and bailing out
from inject_pending_event() before evaluating a new pending event in
case an event was already reinjected.
The bug was observed by the following setup:
* L0 is a 64CPU machine which runs KVM.
* L1 is a 16CPU machine which runs KVM.
* L0 & L1 runs with APICv disabled.
(Also reproduced with APICv enabled but easier to analyze below info
with APICv disabled)
* L1 runs a 16CPU L2 Windows Server 2012 R2 guest.
During L2 boot, L1 hangs completely and analyzing the hang reveals that
one L1 vCPU is holding KVM's mmu_lock and is waiting forever on an IPI
that he has sent for another L1 vCPU. And all other L1 vCPUs are
currently attempting to grab mmu_lock. Therefore, all L1 vCPUs are stuck
forever (as L1 runs with kernel-preemption disabled).
Observing /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe reveals the following
series of events:
(1) qemu-system-x86-19066 [030] kvm_nested_vmexit: rip:

(8) qemu-system-x86-19066 [030] kvm_entry: vcpu 15
Which can be analyzed as follows:
(1) L2 VMExit to L0 on EPT_VIOLATION during delivery of vector 0xd2.
Therefore, vmx_complete_interrupts() will set KVM_REQ_EVENT and reinject
a pending-interrupt of 0xd2.
(2) L1 sends an IPI of vector 0xfc (CALL_FUNCTION_VECTOR) to destination
vCPU 15. This will set relevant bit in LAPIC's IRR and set KVM_REQ_EVENT.
(3) L0 reach vcpu_enter_guest() which calls inject_pending_event() which
notes that interrupt 0xd2 was reinjected and therefore calls
vmx_inject_irq() and returns. Without checking for pending L1 events!
Note that at this point, KVM_REQ_EVENT was cleared by vcpu_enter_guest()
before calling inject_pending_event().
(4) L0 resumes L2 without immediate-exit even though there is a pending
L1 event (The IPI pending in LAPIC's IRR).
We have already reached the buggy scenario but events could be
furthered analyzed:
(5+6) L2 VMExit to L0 on EPT_VIOLATION. This time not during
event-delivery.
(7) L0 decides to forward the VMExit to L1 for further handling.
(8) L0 resumes into L1. Note that because KVM_REQ_EVENT is cleared, the
LAPIC's IRR is not examined and therefore the IPI is still not delivered
into L1!

The reason that exception.pending should block re-injection of

Instead, it describes why a pending exception should be injected
before a pending NMI/interrupt.
Therefore, move currently present comment to code-block evaluating
a new pending event which explains why exception.pending is evaluated
first.
In addition, create a new comment describing that exception.pending
blocks re-injection of NMI/interrupt because the exception was

For exceptions & NMIs events, KVM code use the following
coding convention:
*) "pending" represents an event that should be injected to guest at
some point but it's side-effects have not yet occurred.
*) "injected" represents an event that it's side-effects have already
occurred.
However, interrupts don't conform to this coding convention.
All current code flows mark interrupt.pending when it's side-effects
have already taken place (For example, bit moved from LAPIC IRR to
ISR). Therefore, it makes sense to just rename
interrupt.pending to interrupt.injected.
This change follows logic of previous commit 664f8e26b0 ("KVM: X86:
Fix loss of exception which has not yet been injected") which changed
exception to follow this coding convention as well.
It is important to note that in case !lapic_in_kernel(vcpu),
interrupt.pending usage was and still incorrect.
In this case, interrrupt.pending can only be set using one of the
following ioctls: KVM_INTERRUPT, KVM_SET_VCPU_EVENTS and
KVM_SET_SREGS. Looking at how QEMU uses these ioctls, one can see that
QEMU uses them either to re-set an "interrupt.pending" state it has
received from KVM (via KVM_GET_VCPU_EVENTS interrupt.pending or
via KVM_GET_SREGS interrupt_bitmap) or by dispatching a new interrupt
from QEMU's emulated LAPIC which reset bit in IRR and set bit in ISR
before sending ioctl to KVM. So it seems that indeed "interrupt.pending"
in this case is also suppose to represent "interrupt.injected".
However, kvm_cpu_has_interrupt() & kvm_cpu_has_injectable_intr()
is misusing (now named) interrupt.injected in order to return if
there is a pending interrupt.
This leads to nVMX/nSVM not be able to distinguish if it should exit
from L2 to L1 on EXTERNAL_INTERRUPT on pending interrupt or should
re-inject an injected interrupt.
Therefore, add a FIXME at these functions for handling this issue.
This patch introduce no semantics change.

All these functions are called just to cause an event-injection to

This patch adds the support for pause filtering threshold. This feature
support is indicated by CPUID Fn8000_000A_EDX. See AMD APM Vol 2 Section
15.14.4 Pause Intercept Filtering for more details.
In this mode, a 16-bit pause filter threshold field is added in VMCB.
The threshold value is a cycle count that is used to reset the pause
counter. As with simple pause filtering, VMRUN loads the pause count
value from VMCB into an internal counter. Then, on each pause instruction
the hardware checks the elapsed number of cycles since the most recent
pause instruction against the pause Filter Threshold. If the elapsed cycle
count is greater than the pause filter threshold, then the internal pause
count is reloaded from VMCB and execution continues. If the elapsed cycle
count is less than the pause filter threshold, then the internal pause
count is decremented. If the count value is less than zero and pause
intercept is enabled, a #VMEXIT is triggered. If advanced pause filtering
is supported and pause filter threshold field is set to zero, the filter
will operate in the simpler, count only mode.

KVM and perf have a special backdoor mechanism to report the IP for interrupts
re-executed after vm exit. This works for the NMIs that perf normally uses.
However when perf is in timer mode it doesn't work because the timer interrupt
doesn't get this special treatment. This is common when KVM is running
nested in another hypervisor which may not implement the PMU, so only
timer mode is available.
Call the functions to set up the backdoor IP also for non NMI interrupts.
I renamed the functions to set up the backdoor IP reporting to be more
appropiate for their new use. The SVM change is only compile tested.
v2: Moved the functions inline.
For the normal interrupt case the before/after functions are now
called from x86.c, not arch specific code.
For the NMI case we still need to call it in the architecture
specific code, because it's already needed in the low level *_run
functions.

When L1 IOAPIC redirection-table is written, a request of
KVM_REQ_SCAN_IOAPIC is set on all vCPUs. This is done such that
all vCPUs will now recalc their IOAPIC handled vectors and load
it to their EOI-exitmap.
However, it could be that one of the vCPUs is currently running
L2. In this case, load_eoi_exitmap() will be called which would
write to vmcs02->eoi_exit_bitmap, which is wrong because
vmcs02->eoi_exit_bitmap should always be equal to
vmcs12->eoi_exit_bitmap. Furthermore, at this point
KVM_REQ_SCAN_IOAPIC was already consumed and therefore we will
never update vmcs01->eoi_exit_bitmap. This could lead to remote_irr
of some IOAPIC level-triggered entry to remain set forever.
Fix this issue by delaying the load of EOI-exitmap to when vCPU
is running L1.
One may wonder why not just delay entire KVM_REQ_SCAN_IOAPIC
processing to when vCPU is running L1. This is done in order to handle
correctly the case where LAPIC & IO-APIC of L1 is pass-throughed into
L2. In this case, vmcs12->virtual_interrupt_delivery should be 0. In
current nVMX implementation, that results in
vmcs02->virtual_interrupt_delivery to also be 0. Thus,
vmcs02->eoi_exit_bitmap is not used. Therefore, every L2 EOI cause
a #VMExit into L0 (either on MSR_WRITE to x2APIC MSR or
APIC_ACCESS/APIC_WRITE/EPT_MISCONFIG to APIC MMIO page).
In order for such L2 EOI to be broadcasted, if needed, from LAPIC
to IO-APIC, vcpu->arch.ioapic_handled_vectors must be updated
while L2 is running. Therefore, patch makes sure to delay only the
loading of EOI-exitmap but not the update of
vcpu->arch.ioapic_handled_vectors.

The undocumented 'icebp' instruction (aka 'int1') works pretty much like
'int3' in the absense of in-circuit probing equipment (except,
obviously, that it raises #DB instead of raising #BP), and is used by
some validation test-suites as such.
But Andy Lutomirski noticed that his test suite acted differently in kvm
than on bare hardware.
The reason is that kvm used an inexact test for the icebp instruction:
it just assumed that an all-zero VM exit qualification value meant that
the VM exit was due to icebp.
That is not unlike the guess that do_debug() does for the actual
exception handling case, but it's purely a heuristic, not an absolute
rule. do_debug() does it because it wants to ascribe _some_ reasons to
the #DB that happened, and an empty %dr6 value means that 'icebp' is the
most likely casue and we have no better information.
But kvm can just do it right, because unlike the do_debug() case, kvm
actually sees the real reason for the #DB in the VM-exit interruption
information field.
So instead of relying on an inexact heuristic, just use the actual VM
exit information that says "it was 'icebp'".
Right now the 'icebp' instruction isn't technically documented by Intel,
but that will hopefully change. The special "privileged software
exception" information _is_ actually mentioned in the Intel SDM, even
though the cause of it isn't enumerated.

Access to VMware backdoor ports is done by one of the IN/OUT/INS/OUTS
instructions. These ports must be allowed access even if TSS I/O
permission bitmap don't allow it.
To handle this, VMX/SVM will be changed in future commits
to intercept #GP which was raised by such access and
handle it by calling x86 emulator to emulate instruction.
If it was one of these instructions, the x86 emulator already handles
it correctly (Since commit "KVM: x86: Always allow access to VMware
backdoor I/O ports") by not checking these ports against TSS I/O
permission bitmap.
One may wonder why checking for specific instructions is necessary
as we can just forward all #GPs to the x86 emulator.
There are multiple reasons for doing so:
1. We don't want the x86 emulator to be reached easily
by guest by just executing an instruction that raises #GP as that
exposes the x86 emulator as a bigger attack surface.
2. The x86 emulator is incomplete and therefore certain instructions
that can cause #GP cannot be emulated. Such an example is "INT x"
(opcode 0xcd) which reaches emulate_int() which can only emulate
the instruction if vCPU is in real-mode.

Next commits are going introduce support for accessing VMware backdoor
ports even though guest's TSS I/O permissions bitmap doesn't allow
access. This mimic VMware hypervisor behavior.
In order to support this, next commits will change VMX/SVM to
intercept #GP which was raised by such access and handle it by calling
the x86 emulator to emulate instruction. Since commit "KVM: x86:
Always allow access to VMware backdoor I/O ports", the x86 emulator
handles access to these I/O ports by not checking these ports against
the TSS I/O permission bitmap.
However, there could be cases that CPU rasies a #GP on instruction
that fails to be disassembled by the x86 emulator (Because of
incomplete implementation for example).
In those cases, we would like the #GP intercept to just forward #GP
as-is to guest as if there was no intercept to begin with.
However, current emulator code always queues #UD exception in case
emulator fails (including disassembly failures) which is not what is
wanted in this flow.
This commit addresses this issue by adding a new emulation_type flag
that will allow the #GP intercept handler to specify that it wishes
to be aware when instruction emulation fails and doesn't want #UD
exception to be queued.
