[PATCH 09/12] KVM: guest_memfd: move check for already-populated page to common code

From: Paolo Bonzini
Date: Thu Jul 11 2024 - 18:30:22 EST


Do not allow populating the same page twice with startup data. In the
case of SEV-SNP, for example, the firmware does not allow it anyway,
since the launch-update operation is only possible on pages that are
still shared in the RMP.

Even if it worked, kvm_gmem_populate()'s callback is meant to have side
effects such as updating launch measurements, and updating the same
page twice is unlikely to have the desired results.

Races between calls to the ioctl are not possible because kvm_gmem_populate()
holds slots_lock and the VM should not be running. But again, even if
this worked on other confidential computing technology, it doesn't matter
to guest_memfd.c whether this is an intentional attempt to do something
fishy, or missing synchronization in userspace, or even something
intentional. One of the racers wins, and the page is initialized by
either kvm_gmem_prepare_folio() or kvm_gmem_populate().

Anyway, out of paranoia, adjust sev_gmem_post_populate() anyway to use
the same errno that kvm_gmem_populate() is using.
