Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] x86: Fix SEV guest regression
Date: Tue, 28 Aug 2018 17:12:54 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1535494377-25600-1-git-send-email-brijesh.singh@amd.com> (raw)
The following commit
"
x86/kvmclock: Remove memblock dependency
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=368a540e0232ad446931f5a4e8a5e06f69f21343
"
introduced SEV guest regression.
The guest physical address holding the wall_clock and hv_clock_boot
are shared with the hypervisor must be mapped with C=0 when SEV
is active. To clear the C-bit we use kernel_physical_mapping_init() to
split the large pages. The above commit moved the kvmclock initialization
very early and kernel_physical_mapping_init() fails to allocate memory
while spliting the large page.
To solve it, we add a special .data..decrypted section, this section can be
used to hold the shared variables. Early boot code maps this section with
C=0. The section is pmd aligned and sized to avoid the need to split the pages.
Caller can use __decrypted attribute to add the variables in .data..decrypted
section.

Changes since v1:
- move the logic to re-arrange mapping in new patch
- move the definition of __start_data_* in mem_encrypt.h
- map the workarea buffer as encrypted when SEV is enabled
- enhance the sme_populate_pgd to update the pte/pmd flags when mapping exist
