[PATCH v2 01/14] KVM: x86: disallow pre-fault for SNP VMs before initialization
From: Paolo Bonzini
Date: Fri Jul 26 2024 - 14:52:25 EST
KVM_PRE_FAULT_MEMORY for an SNP guest can race with
sev_gmem_post_populate() in bad ways. The following sequence for
instance can potentially trigger an RMP fault:
thread A, sev_gmem_post_populate: called
thread B, sev_gmem_prepare: places below 'pfn' in a private state in RMP
thread A, sev_gmem_post_populate: *vaddr = kmap_local_pfn(pfn + i);
thread A, sev_gmem_post_populate: copy_from_user(vaddr, src + i * PAGE_SIZE, PAGE_SIZE);
RMP #PF
Fix this by only allowing KVM_PRE_FAULT_MEMORY to run after a guest's
initial private memory contents have been finalized via
KVM_SEV_SNP_LAUNCH_FINISH.
Beyond fixing this issue, it just sort of makes sense to enforce this,
since the KVM_PRE_FAULT_MEMORY documentation states:
"KVM maps memory as if the vCPU generated a stage-2 read page fault"
which sort of implies we should be acting on the same guest state that a
vCPU would see post-launch after the initial guest memory is all set up.

stage-2 read page fault, e.g. faults in memory as needed, but doesn't break
CoW. However, KVM does not mark any newly created stage-2 PTE as Accessed.
+In the case of confidential VM types where there is an initial set up of
+private guest memory before the guest is 'finalized'/measured, this ioctl
+should only be issued after completing all the necessary setup to put the
+guest into a 'finalized' state so that the above semantics can be reliably
+ensured.

In some cases, multiple vCPUs might share the page tables. In this
case, the ioctl can be called in parallel.
