[PATCH v8 00/46] guest_memfd: In-place conversion support

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

This is v8 of guest_memfd in-place conversion support.

Up till now, guest_memfd supports the entire inode worth of memory being
used as all-shared, or all-private. CoCo VMs may request guest memory to be
converted between private and shared states, and the only way to support
that currently would be to have the userspace VMM provide two sources of
backing memory from completely different areas of physical memory.

pKVM has a use case for in-place sharing: the guest and host may be
cooperating on given data, and pKVM doesn't protect data through
encryption, so copying that given data between different areas of physical
memory as part of conversions would be unnecessary work.

This series also serves as a foundation for guest_memfd huge page
support. Now, guest_memfd only supports PAGE_SIZE pages, so if two sources
of backing memory are used, the userspace VMM could maintain a steady total
memory utilized by punching out the pages that are not used. When huge
pages are available in guest_memfd, even if the backing memory source
supports hole punching within a huge page, punching out pages to maintain
the total memory utilized by a VM would be introducing lots of
fragmentation.

In-place conversion avoids fragmentation by allowing the same physical
memory to be used for both shared and private memory, with guest_memfd
tracks the shared/private status of all the pages at a per-page
granularity.

The central principle, which guest_memfd continues to uphold, is that any
guest-private page will not be mappable to host userspace. All pages will
be mmap()-able in host userspace, but accesses to guest-private pages (as
tracked by guest_memfd) will result in a SIGBUS.

This series introduces a guest_memfd ioctl (not kvm, vm or vcpu, but
guest_memfd ioctl) that allows userspace to set memory
attributes (shared/private) directly through the guest_memfd. This is the
appropriate interface because shared/private-ness is a property of memory
and hence the request should be sent directly to the memory provider -
guest_memfd.

Tested with both CONFIG_KVM_VM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES enabled and disabled:

+ tools/testing/selftests/kvm/guest_memfd_test.c
+ tools/testing/selftests/kvm/pre_fault_memory_test.c
+ tools/testing/selftests/kvm/x86/guest_memfd_conversions_test.c
+ tools/testing/selftests/kvm/x86/private_mem_conversions_test.c
+ tools/testing/selftests/kvm/x86/private_mem_kvm_exits_test.c

Updates for this revision:

+ Updated the series to _not_ deprecate all of VM memory attributes, but
  only deprecate tracking of the PRIVATE attributes in VM memory
  attributes. This takes into account upcoming RWX attributes support,
  which will be tracked at the VM level.
+ Reshuffled the earlier commits that deal with preparing KVM to stop
  seeing VM memory attributes as the only source of attributes.
+ Addressed comments from v7

TODOs

+ Retest with TDX selftests. v7 was tested with TDX [12], but the setup there was
  wrong. Conversions were successful (no errors), but the shared memory being
  tested is actually in a completely different host physical page.
+ Retest with SNP selftests. v6 was tested with SNP, I ported that to v7
  and those ran fine too. Just need to double-check for v8.

This series is based on kvm-x86/next, and here's the tree for your convenience:

[PATCH v8 01/46] KVM: guest_memfd: Introduce per-gmem attributes, use to guard user mappings

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>

Start plumbing in guest_memfd support for in-place private<=>shared
conversions by tracking attributes via a maple tree.  KVM currently tracks
private vs. shared attributes on a per-VM basis, which made sense when a
guest_memfd _only_ supported private memory, but tracking per-VM simply
can't work for in-place conversions as the shared/private status of a given
page needs to be per-gmem_inode, not per-VM.

Use the filemap invalidation lock to protect the maple tree, as taking the
lock for read when faulting in memory (for userspace or the guest) isn't
expected to result in meaningful contention, and using a separate lock
would add significant complexity (avoiding deadlock is quite difficult).

[PATCH v8 02/46] KVM: Rename KVM_GENERIC_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES to KVM_VM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>

Rename the per-VM memory attributes Kconfig to make it explicitly about
per-VM attributes in anticipation of adding memory attributes support to
guest_memfd, at which point it will be possible (and desirable) to have
memory attributes without the per-VM support, even in x86.

No functional change intended.

[PATCH v8 03/46] KVM: Move KVM_VM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES config definition to x86

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>

Bury KVM_VM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES in x86 to discourage other architectures
from adding support for per-VM memory attributes, because tracking private
vs. shared memory on a per-VM basis is now deprecated in favor of tracking
on a per-guest_memfd basis, and while RWX memory attributes are on the
horizon, they too are expected to be x86-only.

This will also allow modifying KVM_VM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES to be
user-selectable (in x86) without creating weirdness in KVM's Kconfigs.
Now that guest_memfd supports in-place conversions, it's entirely possible
to run x86 CoCo VMs without support for KVM_VM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES.

Leave the code itself in common KVM so that it's trivial to undo this
change if new per-VM attributes do come along.

[PATCH v8 04/46] KVM: Decouple kvm_has_arch_private_mem from CONFIG_KVM_VM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>

When memory attributes become trackable in guest_memfd, the concept of
having private memory is no longer dependent on
CONFIG_KVM_VM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES.

With this, on x86, kvm_arch_has_private_mem() is defined if some CoCo
platform support (or the testing CONFIG_KVM_SW_PROTECTED_VM) is compiled
in.

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>

Make CONFIG_KVM_VM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES selectable, only for (CoCo) VM types
that might use vm_memory_attributes.

Also document CONFIG_KVM_VM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES to specifically be about the
private/shared attribute.

Sorry for the style nitpick, but could you keep the type and prompt as
the first attribute in the Kconfig option definition (like the other
options do)?

[PATCH v8 06/46] KVM: Enumerate support for PRIVATE memory iff kvm_arch_has_private_mem is defined

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>

Explicitly guard reporting support for KVM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTE_PRIVATE based
on kvm_arch_has_private_mem being #defined in anticipation of decoupling
kvm_supported_mem_attributes() from CONFIG_KVM_VM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES.
guest_memfd support for memory attributes will be unconditional to avoid
yet more macros (all architectures that support guest_memfd are expected to
use per-gmem attributes at some point), at which point enumerating support
KVM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTE_PRIVATE based solely on memory attributes being
supported _somewhere_ would result in KVM over-reporting support on arm64.

[PATCH v8 07/46] KVM: Rename memory attribute APIs to prepare for in-place gmem conversion

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>

Rename memory attribute APIs to add a "vm_" in the name in anticipation of
moving PRIVATE tracking into guest_memfd, to allow in-place conversion
between SHARED and PRIVATE.  At that point, there will effectively be two
(potential) sources of memory attributes: the VM and guest_memfd.

No functional change intended.

Missing SoB (other patches as well, I won't mention it again). But for
this (and other patches I review with a missing SoB fixed):

[PATCH v8 08/46] KVM: Provide generic interface for checking memory private/shared status

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>

Introduce a generic kvm_mem_is_private() interface using a static call to
determine if a GFN is private. This allows the implementation for checking
a GFN's private/shared status to be set at runtime.

In preparation for choosing implementations between a guest_memfd lookup
and the existing VM attribute lookup, rename the existing
VM-attribute-based check to kvm_vm_mem_is_private to emphasize that it
looks up VM attributes.

[PATCH v8 10/46] KVM: guest_memfd: Wire up core private/shared attribute interfaces

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>

With in-place conversion, guest_memfd is able to track the private/shared
status of memory. Use a global flag to toggle between tracking
private/shared status per-vm or within guest_memfd.

When queried for supported vm memory attributes, return 0 if attributes are
tracked in guest_memfd.

When querying for memory attributes over a range, look up memory attributes
based on the flag's state at query time.

For per-GFN memory attribute queries, choosing an implementation (VM or
guest_memfd lookup) at KVM load time.

The flag is always false for now and will be made toggle-able after all
in-place conversion features are added in subsequent patches.

If/since the flag is false, if CONFIG_KVM_VM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES is also not
selected, the per-GFN memory attribute query defaults to returning

[PATCH v8 11/46] KVM: Consolidate private memory and guest_memfd ifdeffery in kvm_host.h

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>

Move the kvm_arch_has_private_mem() stub and a few guest_memfd function
definitions/declarations "down" in kvm_host.h to utilize existing #ifdefs,
and so that related code is clustered together.

No functional change intended.

[PATCH v8 12/46] KVM: guest_memfd: Only prepare folios for private pages

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>

All-shared guest_memfd used to be only supported for non-CoCo VMs where
preparation doesn't apply. INIT_SHARED is about to be supported for CoCo
VMs in a later patch in this series.

In addition, KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES2 is about to be supported in
guest_memfd in a later patch in this series.

This means that the kvm fault handler may now call kvm_gmem_get_pfn() on a
shared folio for a CoCo VM where preparation applies.

Add a check to make sure that preparation is only performed for private
folios.

Preparation will be undone on freeing (see kvm_gmem_free_folio()) and on
conversion to shared.

[PATCH v8 13/46] KVM: guest_memfd: Add base support for KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES2

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>

Introduce base support for KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES2 in guest_memfd, which
just updates attributes tracked by guest_memfd.

Validate input fields in general. Guard usage of KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES2
by making sure requested attributes are supported for this instance of kvm.

A new KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES2 is defined to support writes (unlike
KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES) in addition to reads so it can provide error
details to userspace. This will be used in a later patch.

The two ioctls use their corresponding structs with no overlap, but
backward compatibility is baked in for future support of
KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES2 and struct kvm_memory_attributes2 in the VM
ioctl.

The process of setting memory attributes is set up such that the later half
will not fail due to allocation. Any necessary checks are performed before
the point of no return.

Note sure if it's user error on my part, if I'm applying this to the
wrong base, but I found a build break here on patch 13:
kvm_gmem_invalidate_start() doesn't exist in the base tree. The
function is kvm_gmem_invalidate_begin() here. The rename
(190cc5370a8b6) landed via a different merge path and isn't an
ancestor of the stated base.

Patches 19 and 20 have the same mismatch. Fix for all three is
s/kvm_gmem_invalidate_start/kvm_gmem_invalidate_begin/.

Cheers,
/fuad

[PATCH v8 14/46] KVM: guest_memfd: Ensure pages are not in use before conversion

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>

When converting memory to private in guest_memfd, it is necessary to ensure
that the pages are not currently being accessed by any other part of the
kernel or userspace to avoid any current user writing to guest private
memory.

guest_memfd checks for unexpected refcounts to determine whether a page is
still in use. The only expected refcounts after unmapping the range
requested for conversion are those that are held by guest_memfd itself.

Update the kvm_memory_attributes2 structure to include an error_offset
field. This allows KVM to report the exact offset where a conversion
failed to userspace. If the safety check fails, return -EAGAIN and copy
the error_offset back to userspace so that it can potentially retry the
operation or handle the failure gracefully.

[PATCH v8 15/46] KVM: guest_memfd: Call arch invalidate hooks on conversion

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>

When memory in guest_memfd is converted from private to shared, the
platform-specific state associated with the guest-private pages must be
invalidated or cleaned up.

Iterate over the folios in the affected range and call the
kvm_arch_gmem_invalidate() hook for each PFN range. This allows
architectures to perform necessary teardown, such as updating hardware
metadata or encryption states, before the pages are transitioned to the
shared state.

Invoke this helper after indicating to KVM's mmu code that an invalidation
is in progress to stop in-flight page faults from succeeding.

Coming back to this after working through the arm64/pKVM side. My
Reviewed-by here is from the previous round and the patch hasn't
changed, but I missed an implication for arm64.

kvm_arch_gmem_invalidate() is now called from two paths with the same
(start, end) signature: folio teardown (kvm_gmem_free_folio) and
private->shared conversion (here). For SNP/TDX that's fine, conversion is
destructive anyway. For pKVM the two need opposite content semantics:
conversion must preserve the page in place (same physical page, the point
of in-place conversion without encryption), while teardown must scrub it
before returning it to the host.

The hook gets only a pfn range with no indication of which caller it's
serving, so arm64 can't give the two paths the behaviour they need. It
would help to signal intent on the conversion path: a reason/flag, a
separate hook, or not routing non-destructive conversion through the
teardown hook.

arm64 isn't here yet, so this isn't urgent, but the hook is gaining a
second caller now, and it's cheaper to leave room for the distinction
than to change a generic contract other arches depend on later.

Cheers,
/fuad

[PATCH v8 17/46] KVM: guest_memfd: Advertise KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES2 ioctl

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>

Introduce KVM_CAP_GUEST_MEMFD_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES to advertise the
availability of the KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES2 ioctl.

KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES2 is a guest_memfd-scoped version of the existing
KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES VM ioctl. It allows userspace to manage memory
attributes, such as KVM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTE_PRIVATE, directly on a guest_memfd
file descriptor.

This new version uses struct kvm_memory_attributes2, which adds an
error_offset field to the output. This allows KVM to return the specific
offset that triggered an error, which is especially useful for handling
EAGAIN results caused by transient page reference counts during attribute
conversions.

Update the KVM API documentation to define the new ioctl and its behavior,
and add the necessary UAPI definitions and capability checks.

+Set attributes for a range of offsets within a guest_memfd to
+KVM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTE_PRIVATE to limit the specified guest_memfd backed
+memory range for guest_use. Even if KVM_CAP_GUEST_MEMFD_MMAP is
+supported, after a successful call to set
+KVM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTE_PRIVATE, the requested range will not be mappable
+into host userspace and will only be mappable by the guest.
+
+To allow the range to be mappable into host userspace again, call
+KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES2 on the guest_memfd again with
+KVM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTE_PRIVATE unset.
+
+KVM does not directly manipulate the memory contents of pages during

+kernel.
+
+Userspace is expected to figure out how to remove all known refcounts
+on the shared pages, such as refcounts taken by get_user_pages(), and
+try the ioctl again. A possible source of these long term refcounts is

[PATCH v8 18/46] KVM: guest_memfd: Handle lru_add fbatch refcounts during conversion safety check

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>

When checking if a guest_memfd folio is safe for conversion, its refcount
is examined. A folio may be present in a per-CPU lru_add fbatch, which
temporarily increases its refcount. This can lead to a false positive,
incorrectly indicating that the folio is in use and preventing the
conversion, even if it is otherwise safe. The conversion process might not
be on the same CPU that holds the folio in its fbatch, making a simple
per-CPU check insufficient.

To address this, drain all CPUs' lru_add fbatches if an unexpectedly high
refcount is encountered during the safety check. This is performed at most
once per conversion request. Draining only if the folio in question may be
lru cached.

guest_memfd folios are unevictable, so they can only reside in the lru_add
fbatch. If the folio's refcount is still unsafe after draining, then the
conversion is truly deemed unsafe.

[PATCH v8 19/46] KVM: guest_memfd: Use actual size for invalidation in kvm_gmem_release()

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>

__kvm_gmem_invalidate_begin() and __kvm_gmem_invalidate_end() actually do
not specially handle -1ul. -1ul is used as a huge number, which legal
indices do not exceed, and hence the invalidation works as expected.

Since a later patch is going to make use of the exact range, calculate the
size of the guest_memfd inode and use it as the end range for invalidating
SPTEs.

[PATCH v8 20/46] KVM: guest_memfd: Determine invalidation filter from memory attributes

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>

Before conversion, the range filter doesn't really matter:

+ For non-CoCo VMs that use guest_memfd, they have no mirrored tdp, so
  KVM_DIRECT_ROOTS would have been invalidated anyway.
+ CoCo VMs could not use INIT_SHARED, and there's no conversion support, so
  always using KVM_FILTER_PRIVATE would have worked.

Now with conversion support, update kvm_gmem_get_invalidate_filter to
inspect the memory attributes maple tree for a given range.

Instead of determining the invalidation filter based on static inode
flags, iterate through the attributes maple tree for the specific range
being invalidated. This allows KVM to identify if the range contains
private pages, shared pages, or both, and set the filter bits
accordingly.

Update kvm_gmem_invalidate_begin and kvm_gmem_release to pass the range
parameters to the filter helper to ensure invalidation accurately
targets the memory types present in the affected range.

[PATCH v8 21/46] KVM: guest_memfd: Zero page while getting pfn

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>

Move the folio initialization logic from kvm_gmem_get_pfn() into
__kvm_gmem_get_pfn() to also zero pages if the page is to be used in
kvm_gmem_populate().

With in-place conversion, the existing data in a guest_memfd page can be
populated into guest memory through platform-specific ioctls.

Without first zeroing the page obtained using __kvm_gmem_get_pfn(), it
might contain uninitialized host memory, which would leak to the guest if
the populate completes.

guest_memfd pages are zeroed at most once in the page's entire lifetime
with guest_memfd, and that is tracked using the uptodate flag.

Zeroing the page in __kvm_gmem_get_pfn() is chosen over zeroing in
kvm_gmem_get_folio() since other flows, such as a future write() syscall,
can get a page, write to the page and then set page uptodate without
zeroing.

This aligns with the concept of zeroing before first use - the other place
where zeroing happens is in kvm_gmem_fault_user_mapping().

[PATCH v8 22/46] KVM: SEV: Make 'uaddr' parameter optional for KVM_SEV_SNP_LAUNCH_UPDATE

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Michael Roth <michael.roth@amd.com>

Make the source page for populating an SNP guest_memfd instance optional
if in-place conversion/population is enabled.  If KVM can convert the page
in-place, then it's possible for guest memory to be initialized directly
from userspace by mmap()'ing the guest_memfd and writing to it while the
corresponding GPA ranges are in a 'shared' state, before converting them
to the 'private' state expected by KVM_SEV_SNP_LAUNCH_UPDATE.

Update the handling/documentation for KVM_SEV_SNP_LAUNCH_UPDATE to allow
for 'uaddr' to be set to NULL when in-place conversion is enabled, which
SNP_LAUNCH_UPDATE will then use to determine when it should/shouldn't
copy in data from a separate memory location. Continue to enforce
non-NULL when PRIVATE is tracked per-VM, not per-guest_memfd.

Typo: "is enable" -> "is enabled".

"when the destination can also be the source" is hard to parse without
context. Maybe: "i.e. when the data has been written directly to
guest_memfd while the range was in the shared state".

Also, how does userspace discover whether in-place conversion is
enabled? A cross-reference to KVM_CAP_GUEST_MEMFD_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES
would help here.

[PATCH v8 23/46] KVM: TDX: Make source page optional for KVM_TDX_INIT_MEM_REGION

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>

Update tdx_gmem_post_populate() to handle cases where a source page is
not explicitly provided. Instead of returning -EOPNOTSUPP when src_page
is NULL, default to using the page associated with the destination PFN.

This change allows for in-place memory conversion where the data is
already present in the target PFN, ensuring the TDX module has a valid
source page reference for the TDH.MEM.PAGE.ADD operation.

Sashiko flagged that when src_page = pfn_to_page(pfn),
tdh_mem_page_add gets identical physical addresses for r8
(destination) and r9 (source), reading with host KeyID and writing
with TD KeyID on the same address. I don't know enough about the TDX
module's operand constraints to confirm whether it allows overlapping
source and destination, but the concern looks legitimate.

nit: why does it have Sean's SoB?

[PATCH v8 24/46] KVM: guest_memfd: Make in-place conversion the default

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>

Make in-place conversion the default if the arch has private mem.

The default can be overridden at compile type by enabling
CONFIG_KVM_VM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES, or at KVM load time through a module
parameter.

In-place conversion also implies tracking a guest's private/shared state in
guest_memfd. To avoid inconsistencies in the way memory attributes are
tracked between the per-VM or by guest_memfd, make the module_param
read-only (0444).

Document that using per-VM attributes for tracking private/shared state of
guest memory is deprecated in favor of tracking in guest_memfd.

Warn if the admin sets gmem_in_place_conversion as false when
CONFIG_KVM_VM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES is not enabled. Add warning in the code
path where guest memory is populated for a CoCo VM, since that's the
earliest point in a CoCo VM's lifecycle where memory attributes are
queried. Unlike other query sites, this site is exclusively used by CoCo
VMs.

From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>

Now that guest_memfd supports tracking private vs. shared within gmem
itself, allow userspace to specify INIT_SHARED on a guest_memfd instance
for x86 Confidential Computing (CoCo) VMs, so long as in-place conversion
is enabled, i.e. when it's actually possible for a guest_memfd instance to

[PATCH v8 26/46] KVM: selftests: Create gmem fd before "regular" fd when adding memslot

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>

When adding a memslot associated a guest_memfd instance, create/dup the
guest_memfd before creating the "normal" backing file.  This will allow
dup'ing the gmem fd as the normal fd when guest_memfd supports mmap(),
i.e. to make guest_memfd the _only_ backing source for the memslot.

[PATCH v8 28/46] KVM: selftests: Add support for mmap() on guest_memfd in core library

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>

Accept gmem_flags in vm_mem_add() to be able to create a guest_memfd within
vm_mem_add().

When vm_mem_add() is used to set up a guest_memfd for a memslot, set up the
provided (or created) gmem_fd as the fd for the user memory region. This
makes it available to be mmap()-ed from just like fds from other memory
sources. mmap() from guest_memfd using the provided gmem_flags and
gmem_offset.

Add a kvm_slot_to_fd() helper to provide convenient access to the file
descriptor of a memslot.

Update existing callers of vm_mem_add() to pass 0 for gmem_flags to
preserve existing behavior.

[PATCH v8 29/46] KVM: selftests: Add selftests global for guest memory attributes capability

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>

Add a global variable, kvm_has_gmem_attributes, to make the result of
checking for KVM_CAP_GUEST_MEMFD_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES available to all tests.

kvm_has_gmem_attributes is true if guest_memfd tracks memory attributes, as
opposed to VM-level tracking.

This global variable is synced to the guest for testing convenience, to
avoid introducing subtle bugs when host/guest state is desynced.

[PATCH v8 30/46] KVM: selftests: Add helpers for calling ioctls on guest_memfd

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>

Add helper functions to kvm_util.h to support calling ioctls, specifically
KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES2, on a guest_memfd file descriptor.

Introduce gmem_ioctl() and __gmem_ioctl() macros, modeled after the
existing vm_ioctl() helpers, to provide a standard way to call ioctls
on a guest_memfd.

Add gmem_set_memory_attributes() and its derivatives (gmem_set_private(),
gmem_set_shared()) to set memory attributes on a guest_memfd region.
Also provide "__" variants that return the ioctl error code instead of
aborting the test. These helpers will be used by upcoming guest_memfd
tests.

To avoid code duplication, factor out the check for supported memory
attributes into a new macro, TEST_ASSERT_SUPPORTED_ATTRIBUTES, and use
it in both the existing vm_set_memory_attributes() and the new
gmem_set_memory_attributes() helpers.

[PATCH v8 31/46] KVM: selftests: Test basic single-page conversion flow

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>

Add a selftest for the guest_memfd memory attribute conversion ioctls.
The test starts the guest_memfd as all-private (the default state), and
verifies the basic flow of converting a single page to shared and then back
to private.

Add infrastructure that supports extensions to other conversion flow
tests. This infrastructure will be used in upcoming patches for other
conversion tests.

Add test as an x86-specific test since guest_memfd's testing
vehicle (KVM_X86_SW_PROTECTED_VM) is x86-specific.

[PATCH v8 33/46] KVM: selftests: Test conversion precision in guest_memfd

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>

The existing guest_memfd conversion tests only use single-page memory
regions. This provides no coverage for multi-page guest_memfd objects,
specifically whether KVM correctly handles the page index for conversion
operations. An incorrect implementation could, for example, always operate
on the first page regardless of the index provided.

Add a new test case to verify that conversions between private and shared
memory correctly target the specified page within a multi-page guest_memfd.

This test also verifies the precision of memory conversions by converting a
single page an then iterating through all other pages ensure they remain in
their original state.

To support this test, add a new GMEM_CONVERSION_MULTIPAGE_TEST_INIT_SHARED
macro that handles setting up and tearing down the VM for each page
iteration. The teardown logic is adjusted to prevent a double-free in this
new scenario.

[PATCH v8 34/46] KVM: selftests: Test conversion before allocation

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>

Add two test cases to the guest_memfd conversions selftest to cover
the scenario where a conversion is requested before any memory has been
allocated in the guest_memfd region.

The KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES2 ioctl can be called on a memory region at
any time. If the guest had not yet faulted in any pages for that region,
the kernel must record the conversion request and apply the requested state
when the pages are eventually allocated.

The new tests cover both conversion directions.

[PATCH v8 36/46] KVM: selftests: Test that truncation does not change shared/private status

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>

Add a test to verify that deallocating a page in a guest memfd region via
fallocate() with FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE does not alter the shared or private
status of the corresponding memory range.

When a page backing a guest memfd mapping is deallocated, e.g., by punching
a hole or truncating the file, and then subsequently faulted back in, the
new page must inherit the correct shared/private status tracked by
guest_memfd.

From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>

Add a test to verify that a guest_memfd's shared/private status is
consistent across processes, and that any shared pages previously mapped in
any process are unmapped from all processes.

The test forks a child process after creating the shared guest_memfd
region so that the second process exists alongside the main process for the
entire test.

The processes then take turns to access memory to check that the
shared/private status is consistent across processes.

[PATCH v8 38/46] KVM: selftests: Add helpers to pin pages with CONFIG_GUP_TEST

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>

Add helper functions to allow KVM selftests to pin memory using
CONFIG_GUP_TEST. This is useful for testing scenarios where some page has
an increased refcount. such as in guest_memfd in-place conversion tests.

The helpers open /sys/kernel/debug/gup_test and invoke the
PIN_LONGTERM_TEST_START and PIN_LONGTERM_TEST_STOP ioctls. Since this
functionality depends on the kernel being built with CONFIG_GUP_TEST,
provide stub implementations that trigger a test failure if the
configuration is missing.

From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>

Add a selftest to verify that converting a shared guest_memfd page to a
private page fails if the page has an elevated reference count.

When KVM converts a shared page to a private one, it expects the page to
have a reference count equal to the reference counts taken by the
filemap. If another kernel subsystem holds a reference to the page, the
conversion must be aborted.

The test asserts that both bulk and single-page conversion attempts
correctly fail with EAGAIN for the pinned page. After the page is unpinned,
the test verifies that subsequent conversions succeed.

[PATCH v8 40/46] KVM: selftests: Reset shared memory after hole-punching

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>

private_mem_conversions_test used to reset the shared memory that was used
for the test to an initial pattern at the end of each test iteration. Then,
it would punch out the pages, which would zero memory.

Without in-place conversion, the resetting would write shared memory, and
hole-punching will zero private memory, hence resetting the test to the
state at the beginning of the for loop.

With in-place conversion, resetting writes memory as shared, and
hole-punching zeroes the same physical memory, hence undoing the reset
done before the hole punch.

Move the resetting after the hole-punching, and reset the entire
PER_CPU_DATA_SIZE instead of just the tested range.

With in-place conversion, this zeroes and then resets the same physical
memory. Without in-place conversion, the private memory is zeroed, and the
shared memory is reset to init_p.

This is sufficient since at each test stage, the memory is assumed to start
as shared, and private memory is always assumed to start zeroed. Conversion
zeroes memory, so the future test stages will work as expected.

[PATCH v8 41/46] KVM: selftests: Provide function to look up guest_memfd details from gpa

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>

Introduce a new helper, kvm_gpa_to_guest_memfd(), to find the
guest_memfd-related details of a memory region that contains a given guest
physical address (GPA).

The function returns the file descriptor for the memfd, the offset into
the file that corresponds to the GPA, and the number of bytes remaining
in the region from that GPA.

kvm_gpa_to_guest_memfd() was factored out from vm_guest_mem_fallocate();
refactor vm_guest_mem_fallocate() to use the new helper.

Add this check to make sure that when a guest_memfd is used as region->fd,
the flag provided to mmap() will include MAP_SHARED.

[PATCH v8 44/46] KVM: selftests: Make TEST_EXPECT_SIGBUS thread-safe

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>

The TEST_EXPECT_SIGBUS macro is not thread-safe as it uses a global
sigjmp_buf and installs a global SIGBUS signal handler. If multiple threads
execute the macro concurrently, they will race on installing the signal
handler and stomp on other threads' jump buffers, leading to incorrect test
behavior.

Make TEST_EXPECT_SIGBUS thread-safe with the following changes:

Share the KVM tests' global signal handler. sigaction() applies to all
threads; without sharing a global signal handler, one thread may have
removed the signal handler that another thread added, hence leading to
unexpected signals.

The alternative of layering signal handlers was considered, but calling
sigaction() within TEST_EXPECT_SIGBUS() necessarily creates a race. To
avoid adding new setup and teardown routines to do sigaction() and keep
usage of TEST_EXPECT_SIGBUS() simple, share the KVM tests' global signal
handler.

Opportunistically rename report_unexpected_signal to
catchall_signal_handler.

To continue to only expect SIGBUS within specific regions of code, use a
thread-specific variable, expecting_sigbus, to replace installing and
removing signal handlers.

Make the execution environment for the thread, sigjmp_buf, a
thread-specific variable.

As part of TEST_EXPECT_SIGBUS(), assert the prerequisite for this setup,
that the current signal handler is the catchall_signal_handler.

[PATCH v8 45/46] KVM: selftests: Update private_mem_conversions_test to mmap() guest_memfd

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@google.com>

Update the private memory conversions selftest to also test conversions
that are done "in-place" via per-guest_memfd memory attributes. In-place
conversions require the host to be able to mmap() the guest_memfd so that
the host and guest can share the same backing physical memory.

This includes several updates, that are conditioned on the system
supporting per-guest_memfd attributes (kvm_has_gmem_attributes):

1. Set up guest_memfd requesting MMAP and INIT_SHARED.

2. With in-place conversions, the host's mapping points directly to the
   guest's memory. When the guest converts a region to private, host access
   to that region is blocked. Update the test to expect a SIGBUS when
   attempting to access the host virtual address (HVA) of private memory.

3. Use vm_mem_set_memory_attributes(), which chooses how to set memory
   attributes based on whether kvm_has_gmem_attributes.

Restrict the test to using VM_MEM_SRC_SHMEM because guest_memfd's required
mmap() flags and page sizes happens to align with those of
VM_MEM_SRC_SHMEM. As long as VM_MEM_SRC_SHMEM is used for src_type,
vm_mem_add() works as intended.

[PATCH v8 46/46] KVM: selftests: Update private memory exits test to work with per-gmem attributes

[Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay]

From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>

Skip setting memory to private in the private memory exits test when using
per-gmem memory attributes, as memory is initialized to private by default
for guest_memfd, and using vm_mem_set_private() on a guest_memfd instance
requires creating guest_memfd with GUEST_MEMFD_FLAG_MMAP (which is totally
doable, but would need to be conditional and is ultimately unnecessary).

Expect an emulated MMIO instead of a memory fault exit when attributes are
per-gmem, as deleting the memslot effectively drops the private status,
i.e. the GPA becomes shared and thus supports emulated MMIO.

Skip the "memslot not private" test entirely, as private vs. shared state
for x86 software-protected VMs comes from the memory attributes themselves,
and so when doing in-place conversions there can never be a disconnect
between the expected and actual states.

Hi,

Thanks for this series.
This works well for me on AMD EPYC 7713 (SEV-SNP enabled). I tested:
1. KVM selftests: all tests pass.
2. Using in-place conversion QEMU branch [1]:
qemu-system-x86_64 \
  -machine q35,confidential-guest-support=sev0 \
  -enable-kvm -cpu EPYC-v4 -smp 8,maxcpus=8 -m 120G -no-reboot \
  -object memory-backend-guest-memfd,id=ram0,size=60G,share=on,host-nodes=0-1,policy=interleave \
  -object memory-backend-guest-memfd,id=ram1,size=60G,share=on,host-nodes=0,policy=bind \
  -numa node,nodeid=0,memdev=ram0,cpus=0-3 \
  -numa node,nodeid=1,memdev=ram1,cpus=4-7 \
  -object sev-snp-guest,id=sev0,policy=0x30000,cbitpos=51,reduced-phys-bits=1,convert-in-place=on \
  -bios "$OVMF" \
  -drive file="$DISK",if=none,id=disk0,format=qcow2 \
  -device virtio-scsi-pci,id=scsi0,disable-legacy=on,iommu_platform=true -device scsi-hd,drive=disk0 \
  -netdev user,id=net0,hostfwd=tcp::8000-:22 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=net0 \
  -kernel "$KERNEL" -initrd "$INITRD" \
  -append "$ROOT ro console=ttyS0,115200" \
  -trace enable=kvm_convert_memory,file=/tmp/convert.log \
  -nographic -serial mon:stdio

   The guest boots successfully and run memory hogger. With this, I verified the
   shared <-> private conversion logs (trace_kvm_convert_memory).

3. Additionally, verified the NUMA placement for SEV-SNP. With this series,
   NUMA mempolicy support for guest_memfd [2] now works for SEV-SNP as well.
