[PATCH v2 03/16] KVM: x86: Always use non-compat vcpu_runstate_info size for gfn=>pfn cache

From: Sean Christopherson
Date: Thu Oct 13 2022 - 17:14:02 EST


Always use the size of Xen's non-compat vcpu_runstate_info struct when
checking that the GPA+size doesn't cross a page boundary. Conceptually,
using the current mode is more correct, but KVM isn't consistent with
itself as kvm_xen_vcpu_set_attr() unconditionally uses the "full" size
when activating the cache. More importantly, prior to the introduction
of the gfn_to_pfn_cache, KVM _always_ used the full size, i.e. allowing
the guest (userspace?) to use a poorly aligned GPA in 32-bit mode but not
64-bit mode is more of a bug than a feature, and fixing the bug doesn't
break KVM's historical ABI.

Always using the non-compat size will allow for future gfn_to_pfn_cache
clenups as this is (was) the only case where KVM uses a different size at
check()+refresh() than at activate(). E.g. the length/size of the cache
can be made immutable and dropped from check()+refresh(), which yields a
cleaner set of APIs and avoids potential bugs that could occur if check()
where invoked with a different size than refresh().
