[RFC PATCH v3 31/59] KVM: x86: Add infrastructure for stolen GPA bits

From: isaku . yamahata
Date: Wed Nov 24 2021 - 19:23:02 EST


From: Rick Edgecombe <rick.p.edgecombe@xxxxxxxxx>

Add support in KVM's MMU for aliasing multiple GPAs (from a hardware
perspective) to a single GPA (from a memslot perspective). GPA alising
will be used to repurpose GPA bits as attribute bits, e.g. to expose an
execute-only permission bit to the guest. To keep the implementation
simple (relatively speaking), GPA aliasing is only supported via TDP.

Today KVM assumes two things that are broken by GPA aliasing.
1. GPAs coming from hardware can be simply shifted to get the GFNs.
2. GPA bits 51:MAXPHYADDR are reserved to zero.

With GPA aliasing, translating a GPA to GFN requires masking off the
repurposed bit, and a repurposed bit may reside in 51:MAXPHYADDR.

To support GPA aliasing, introduce the concept of per-VM GPA stolen bits,
that is, bits stolen from the GPA to act as new virtualized attribute
bits. A bit in the mask will cause the MMU code to create aliases of the
GPA. It can also be used to find the GFN out of a GPA coming from a tdp
fault.

To handle case (1) from above, retain any stolen bits when passing a GPA
in KVM's MMU code, but strip them when converting to a GFN so that the
GFN contains only the "real" GFN, i.e. never has repurposed bits set.

GFNs (without stolen bits) continue to be used to:
-Specify physical memory by userspace via memslots
-Map GPAs to TDP PTEs via RMAP
-Specify dirty tracking and write protection
-Look up MTRR types
-Inject async page faults

Since there are now multiple aliases for the same aliased GPA, when
userspace memory backing the memslots is paged out, both aliases need to be
modified. Fortunately this happens automatically. Since rmap supports
multiple mappings for the same GFN for PTE shadowing based paging, by
adding/removing each alias PTE with its GFN, kvm_handle_hva() based
operations will be applied to both aliases.

In the case of the rmap being removed in the future, the needed
information could be recovered by iterating over the stolen bits and
walking the TDP page tables.

For TLB flushes that are address based, make sure to flush both aliases
in the stolen bits case.

Only support stolen bits in 64 bit guest paging modes (long, PAE).
Features that use this infrastructure should restrict the stolen bits to
exclude the other paging modes. Don't support stolen bits for shadow EPT.
