Another resource that is being set for an enclave is memory. User space

One solution for allocating / reserving contiguous memory regions, that
is used for integration, is hugetlbfs. The user space process that is
associated with the enclave passes to the driver these memory regions.

The enclave memory regions need to be from the same NUMA node as the
enclave CPUs.

Add ioctl command logic for setting user space memory region for an
enclave.

Changelog

v3 -> v4

* Check enclave memory regions are from the same NUMA node as the
   enclave CPUs.
* Use dev_err instead of custom NE log pattern.
* Update the NE ioctl call to match the decoupling from the KVM API.

v2 -> v3

* Remove the WARN_ON calls.
* Update static calls sanity checks.
* Update kzfree() calls to kfree().

v1 -> v2

* Add log pattern for NE.
* Update goto labels to match their purpose.
* Remove the BUG_ON calls.
* Check if enclave max memory regions is reached when setting an enclave
   memory region.
* Check if enclave state is init when setting an enclave memory region.

Can we make this an error that gets propagated to user space explicitly? I'd rather have a clear error return value of this function than a random message in dmesg.

We can make this, will add memory checks specific NE error codes, as for the other call paths in the series e.g. enclave CPU(s) setup.

This logic already relies on the fact that NE_MIN_MEM_REGION_SIZE is a power of two. Can you do the same above on the memory_size check?

Done.

Same comment again. Return different errors for different conditions, so that user space has a chance to print proper errors to its users.

Also, don't we have to check alignment of userspace_addr as well?


Would need an alignment check for 2 MiB at least, yes.

kfree(NULL) is a nop, so you can just set rc and goto free_mem_region here and below.

Updated both return paths.

Can this deadlock the kernel? Shouldn't we rather return an error when we can't pin all pages?

It shouldn't cause a deadlock, based on the return values:

But I can update the logic to have all or nothing.

Why is a huge page size of >2MB a problem? Can't we just make huge_page_size() the ne mem slot size?

It's not a problem, actually this is part of the TODO(s) from the current function, to support contiguous regions larger than 2 MiB. It's just that we started with 2 MiB. :)

Is there a way to give user space hints on *why* things are going wrong?

Yes, one option for the user space to have more insights is to have the specific NE error codes you mentioned, so that we can improve the experience even further.

Yeah, for now, just make it huge_page_size()! :)

Yup, I'll handle this in order to have the option for other sizes, in addition to 2 MiB e.g. 1 GiB for hugetlbfs.

Are we sure we're not creating an unusable system here?

The way the requests to the PCI device are structured is that we cannot get back a memory region / CPU, once added, till the enclave is terminated. Let's say there is an error in the remaining logic from the ioctl, after the region is successfully added, then the memory region can be given back to the primary / parent VM once the enclave termination (including slot free) is done.

We can either have the logic handle one contiguous region per ioctl call (user space gives a memory region that is backed by a single contiguous physical memory region) or have a for loop to go through all contiguous regions (user space gives a memory region that is backed by a set of (smaller) contiguous physical memory regions). In the second case, if a request to the NE PCI device fails, already added memory regions can be given back only on slot free, triggered by the enclave termination, when closing the enclave fd.

I'm in full agreement with you, but the logic here aborts mid-way, explicitly unpins all pages (does that mean use count is now -1 for some?) and does not keep track of the fact that some pages may be donated already. Does that mean that those pages may be reserved for the enclave, but passed to user space again?

I think in the error case, we should not unpin for now, because we can't guarantee that the "enclave device" isn't using those pages.
