KVM: x86: SEV: Treat C-bit as legal GPA bit regardless of vCPU mode
mainline inclusion from mainline-v5.12-rc1 commit ca29e145 category: feature bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/intel-kernel/issues/I7S3VQ CVE: NA Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=ca29e14506bd66d50733c1f3e4448aba54e70cc7 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Rename cr3_lm_rsvd_bits to reserved_gpa_bits, and use it for all GPA legality checks. AMD's APM states: If the C-bit is an address bit, this bit is masked from the guest physical address when it is translated through the nested page tables. Thus, any access that can conceivably be run through NPT should ignore the C-bit when checking for validity. For features that KVM emulates in software, e.g. MTRRs, there is no clear direction in the APM for how the C-bit should be handled. For such cases, follow the SME behavior inasmuch as possible, since SEV is is essentially a VM-specific variant of SME. For SME, the APM states: In this case the upper physical address bits are treated as reserved when the feature is enabled except where otherwise indicated. Collecting the various relavant SME snippets in the APM and cross- referencing the omissions with Linux kernel code, this leaves MTTRs and APIC_BASE as the only flows that KVM emulates that should _not_ ignore the C-bit. Note, this means the reserved bit checks in the page tables are technically broken. This will be remedied in a future patch. Although the page table checks are technically broken, in practice, it's all but guaranteed to be irrelevant. NPT is required for SEV, i.e. shadowing page tables isn't needed in the common case. Theoretically, the checks could be in play for nested NPT, but it's extremely unlikely that anyone is running nested VMs on SEV, as doing so would require L1 to expose sensitive data to L0, e.g. the entire VMCB. And if anyone is running nested VMs, L0 can't read the guest's encrypted memory, i.e. L1 would need to put its NPT in shared memory, in which case the C-bit will never be set. Or, L1 could use shadow paging, but again, if L0 needs to read page tables, e.g. to load PDPTRs, the memory can't be encrypted if L1 has any expectation of L0 doing the right thing.
