[PATCH v2 0/4] KVM: x86: get CPL from SS.DPL

[PATCH v2 0/4] KVM: x86: get CPL from SS.DPL

[Paolo Bonzini]

Another day, another CPL patch...

It turns out that the simple approach of getting CPL from SS.DPL
broke x86/taskswitch2.flat.  To fix that, already "imagine" that the
CPL is CS.RPL, or 3 for VM86 tasks, while loading segment descriptors
during task switches.  This removes the hack where task switches call
kvm_set_rflags to override the VM flag (patch 2).

While at it, add a new privilege test during task switches that is
missing.

Patch 4 is the same as before.

Paolo Bonzini (4):
  KVM: x86: use new CS.RPL as CPL during task switch
  KVM: x86: drop set_rflags callback
  KVM: x86: check CS.DPL against RPL during task switch
  KVM: x86: get CPL from SS.DPL

[PATCH v2 1/4] KVM: x86: use new CS.RPL as CPL during task switch

[Paolo Bonzini]

During task switch, all of CS.DPL, CS.RPL, SS.DPL must match (in addition
to all the other requirements) and will be the new CPL.  So far this
worked by carefully setting the CS selector and flag before doing the
task switch; however, this will not work once we get the CPL from SS.DPL:
setting SS itself would fail if the task switch changes the privilege
level.

Temporarily assume that the CPL comes from CS.RPL during task switch
to a protected-mode task.  This is the same approach used in QEMU's
emulation code, which (until version 2.0) manually tracks the CPL.

[PATCH v2 4/4] KVM: x86: get CPL from SS.DPL

[Paolo Bonzini]

CS.RPL is not equal to the CPL in the few instructions between
setting CR0.PE and reloading CS.  And CS.DPL is also not equal
to the CPL for conforming code segments.

However, SS.DPL *is* always equal to the CPL except for the weird
case of SYSRET on AMD processors, which sets SS.DPL=SS.RPL from the
value in the STAR MSR, but force CPL=3 (Intel instead forces
SS.DPL=SS.RPL=CPL=3).

So this patch:

- modifies SVM to update the CPL from SS.DPL rather than CS.RPL;
the above case with SYSRET is not broken further, and the way
to fix it would be to pass the CPL to userspace and back

- modifies VMX to always return the CPL from SS.DPL (except
forcing it to 0 if we are emulating real mode via vm86 mode;
in vm86 mode all DPLs have to be 3, but real mode does allow
privileged instructions).  It also removes the CPL cache,
which becomes a duplicate of the SS access rights cache.

This fixes doing KVM_IOCTL_SET_SREGS exactly after setting
CR0.PE=1 but before CS has been reloaded.

More precisely, before patch 4 in this series setting CS.selector would 
already change the CPL.  After it, you actually have to set the full 
segment descriptor cache to change the CPL, so we cannot use 
ctxt->ops->cpl(ctxt) to retrieve the CPL during a task switch.  The 
check that fails without this patch is that SS.DPL must be == CPL, and 
the failure happens because ctxt->ops->cpl(ctxt) is the *old* SS.DPL.

A small nit-picking: a new line to comply with 80 characters per line
rule. otherwise looks good to me.

Exception number is incorrect, however not introduced by this patchset.
