Subject: [PATCH] KVM: SEV: Forcefully invalidate SNP VMSA if its backing gmem
 page is zapped
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Wire up a gmem_invalidate_range() call for SNP VMs, and use it to force
vCPUs to reload/recheck their guest-provided VMSA if the backing gmem
page is being invalidated, e.g. is being PUNCH_HOLE'd.  Use the same core
logic to handle invalidations as VMX does for the APIC-access page, as the
two concepts are nearly identical: shove the physical address of a page
into the vCPU's control structure:

 1. Snapshot the invalidation sequence counter
 2. Grab the pfn (from guest_memfd in this case)
 3. Acquire mmu_lock for read
 4. Re-request reload if retry is needed, otherwise commit the change.

Note, the re-request action in #4 is necessary as KVM's retry logic is
fuzzy, i.e. can get false positives.  If the guest_memfd page has been
dropped, at some point a subsequent reload will fail to get a PFN from
guest_memfd, and KVM will fail KVM_RUN.  If the retry was due to a false
positive, KVM will retry until there are no relevant MMU notifier events
(and will retry in the "outer" loop, i.e. will drop locks and resched as
needed).

Note #2!  Take care to invalidate the VMSA when a relevant memslot is
DELETED or MOVED, as invalidations in response to PUNCH_HOLE are predicated
on memslot bindings (KVM doesn't know what GFN range(s) to invalidate
without a binding).  And more importantly, the VMSA mapping requires a
memslot, i.e. must be invalidated if its memslots disappears, regardless of
the state of the underlying guest_memfd inode.

Failure to invalidate the vCPU's control.vmsa_pa (which is checked by
pre_sev_run()) can prevent KVM from properly freeing the page as firmware
will reject the RMPUPDATE to reclaim the page with FAIL_INUSE if the vCPU
is actively running, i.e. if VMSA page is in-use.  That in turn leads to an
RMP #PF on the next use, as the page will still be assigned to the SNP VM.

Drop the pseudo-TODO comment about needing to pin the page if guest_memfd
every supports migration, as integrating with invalidations events means
KVM will Just Work if/when page migration is ever supported (assuming SNP
hardware supports migrating VMSA pages).

Note #3, invalidate() and invalidate_range() have _completely_ different
semantics; the new invalidate_range() is a true invalidation, whereas the
existing invalidate() is really a "make shared" operation.  Ignore the
confusing naming and poor Kconfig bundling for the moment to minimize the
delta for LTS kernels, the mess will be cleaned up shortly.
