Subject: [PATCH v2 15/59] KVM: SVM: Add enable_ipiv param, never set IsRunning if disabled
Date: Thu, 22 May 2025 17:59:20 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250523010004.3240643-16-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250523010004.3240643-1-seanjc@google.com>
From: Maxim Levitsky <mlevitsk@redhat.com>
Let userspace "disable" IPI virtualization for AVIC via the enable_ipiv
module param, by never setting IsRunning. SVM doesn't provide a way to
disable IPI virtualization in hardware, but by ensuring CPUs never see
IsRunning=1, every IPI in the guest (except for self-IPIs) will generate a
VM-Exit.
To avoid setting the real IsRunning bit, while still allowing KVM to use
each vCPU's entry to update GA log entries, simply maintain a shadow of
the entry, without propagating IsRunning updates to the real table when
IPI virtualization is disabled.
Providing a way to effectively disable IPI virtualization will allow KVM
to safely enable AVIC on hardware that is susceptible to erratum #1235,
which causes hardware to sometimes fail to detect that the IsRunning bit
has been cleared by software.
Note, the table _must_ be fully populated, as broadcast IPIs skip invalid
entries, i.e. won't generate VM-Exit if every entry is invalid, and so
simply pointing the VMCB at a common dummy table won't work.
Alternatively, KVM could allocate a shadow of the entire table, but that'd
be a waste of 4KiB since the per-vCPU entry doesn't actually consume an
additional 8 bytes of memory (vCPU structures are large enough that they
are backed by order-N pages).
