[PATCH] x86/tdx: Handle load_unaligned_zeropad() page-cross to a shared page

From: Kirill A. Shutemov
Date: Tue May 17 2022 - 11:30:40 EST


load_unaligned_zeropad() can lead to unwanted loads across page boundaries.
The unwanted loads are typically harmless. But, they might be made to
totally unrelated or even unmapped memory. load_unaligned_zeropad()
relies on exception fixup (#PF, #GP and now #VE) to recover from these
unwanted loads.

In TDX guest the second page can be shared page and VMM may configure it
to trigger #VE.

Kernel assumes that #VE on a shared page is MMIO access and tries to
decode instruction to handle it. In case of load_unaligned_zeropad() it
may result in confusion as it is not MMIO access.

Check fixup table before trying to handle MMIO.
