Problem =======
When host APEI is unable to claim a synchronous external abort (SEA) during guest abort, today KVM directly injects an asynchronous SError into the VCPU then resumes it. The injected SError usually results in unpleasant guest kernel panic.
One of the major situation of guest SEA is when VCPU consumes recoverable uncorrected memory error (UER), which is not uncommon at all in modern datacenter servers with large amounts of physical memory. Although SError and guest panic is sufficient to stop the propagation of corrupted memory, there is room to recover from an UER in a more graceful manner.
Proposed Solution =================
The idea is, we can replay the SEA to the faulting VCPU. If the memory error consumption or the fault that cause SEA is not from guest kernel, the blast radius can be limited to the poison-consuming guest process, while the VM can keep running.
In addition, instead of doing under the hood without involving userspace, there are benefits to redirect the SEA to VMM:
- VM customers care about the disruptions caused by memory errors, and VMM usually has the responsibility to start the process of notifying the customers of memory error events in their VMs. For example some cloud provider emits a critical log in their observability UI [1], and provides a playbook for customers on how to mitigate disruptions to their workloads.
- VMM can protect future memory error consumption by unmapping the poisoned pages from stage-2 page table with KVM userfault [2], or by splitting the memslot that contains the poisoned pages.
- VMM can keep track of SEA events in the VM. When VMM thinks the status on the host or the VM is bad enough, e.g. number of distinct SEAs exceeds a threshold, it can restart the VM on another healthy host.
- Behavior parity with x86 architecture. When machine check exception (MCE) is caused by VCPU, kernel or KVM signals userspace SIGBUS to let VMM either recover from the MCE, or terminate itself with VM. The prior RFC proposes to implement SIGBUS on arm64 as well, but Marc preferred KVM exit over signal [3]. However, implementation aside, returning SEA to VMM is on par with returning MCE to VMM.
Once SEA is redirected to VMM, among other actions, VMM is encouraged to inject external aborts into the faulting VCPU.
New UAPIs =========
This patchset introduces following userspace-visible changes to empower VMM to control what happens for SEA on guest memory:
- KVM_CAP_ARM_SEA_TO_USER. While taking SEA, if userspace has enabled this new capability at VM creation, and the SEA is not owned by kernel allocated memory, instead of injecting SError, return KVM_EXIT_ARM_SEA to userspace.
- KVM_EXIT_ARM_SEA. This is the VM exit reason VMM gets. The details about the SEA is provided in arm_sea as much as possible, including sanitized ESR value at EL2, faulting guest virtual and physical addresses if available.
* From v2 [4]: - Rebased on "[PATCH] KVM: arm64: nv: Handle SEAs due to VNCR redirection" [5] and kvmarm/next commit 7b8346bd9fce ("KVM: arm64: Don't attempt vLPI mappings when vPE allocation is disabled") - Took the host_owns_sea implementation from Oliver [6, 7]. - Excluded the guest SEA injection patches. - Updated selftest.
* From v1 [8]: - Rebased on commit 4d62121ce9b5 ("KVM: arm64: vgic-debug: Avoid dereferencing NULL ITE pointer"). - Sanitize ESR_EL2 before reporting it to userspace. - Do not do KVM_EXIT_ARM_SEA when SEA is caused by memory allocated to stage-2 translation table.

When APEI fails to handle a stage-2 synchronous external abort (SEA), today KVM directly injects an async SError to the VCPU then resumes it, which usually results in unpleasant guest kernel panic.
One major situation of guest SEA is when vCPU consumes recoverable uncorrected memory error (UER). Although SError and guest kernel panic effectively stops the propagation of corrupted memory, guest may re-use the corrupted memory if auto-rebooted; in worse case, guest boot may run into poisoned memory. So there is room to recover from an UER in a more graceful manner.
Alternatively KVM can redirect the synchronous SEA event to VMM to - Reduce blast radius if possible. VMM can inject a SEA to VCPU via KVM's existing KVM_SET_VCPU_EVENTS API. If the memory poison consumption or fault is not from guest kernel, blast radius can be limited to the triggering thread in guest userspace, so VM can keep running. - Allow VMM to protect from future memory poison consumption by unmapping the page from stage-2, or to interrupt guest of the poisoned page so guest kernel can unmap it from stage-1 page table. - Allow VMM to track SEA events that VM customers care about, to restart VM when certain number of distinct poison events have happened, to provide observability to customers in log management UI.
Introduce an userspace-visible feature to enable VMM handle SEA: - KVM_CAP_ARM_SEA_TO_USER. As the alternative fallback behavior when host APEI fails to claim a SEA, userspace can opt in this new capability to let KVM exit to userspace during SEA if it is not owned by host. - KVM_EXIT_ARM_SEA. A new exit reason is introduced for this. KVM fills kvm_run.arm_sea with as much as possible information about the SEA, enabling VMM to emulate SEA to guest by itself. - Sanitized ESR_EL2. The general rule is to keep only the bits useful for userspace and relevant to guest memory. - Flags indicating if faulting guest physical address is valid. - Faulting guest physical and virtual addresses if valid.

Test how KVM handles guest SEA when APEI is unable to claim it, and KVM_CAP_ARM_SEA_TO_USER is enabled.
The behavior is triggered by consuming recoverable memory error (UER) injected via EINJ. The test asserts two major things: 1. KVM returns to userspace with KVM_EXIT_ARM_SEA exit reason, and has provided expected fault information, e.g. esr, flags, gva, gpa. 2. Userspace is able to handle KVM_EXIT_ARM_SEA by injecting SEA to guest and KVM injects expected SEA into the VCPU.
Tested on a data center server running Siryn AmpereOne processor that has RAS support.
Several things to notice before attempting to run this selftest: - The test relies on EINJ support in both firmware and kernel to inject UER. Otherwise the test will be skipped. - The under-test platform's APEI should be unable to claim the SEA. Otherwise the test will be skipped. - Some platform doesn't support notrigger in EINJ, which may cause APEI and GHES to offline the memory before guest can consume injected UER, and making test unable to trigger SEA.

When the VM capability KVM_CAP_ARM_SEA_TO_USER is +enabled, a VM exit is generated if guest causes a synchronous external abort +(SEA) and the host APEI fails to handle the SEA. + +Historically KVM handles SEA by first delegating the SEA to host APEI as there +is high chance that the SEA is caused by consuming uncorrected memory error. +However, not all platforms support SEA handling in APEI, and KVM's fallback +handling is to inject an async SError into the guest, which usually panics +guest kernel unpleasantly. As an alternative, userspace can participate in +the SEA handling by enabling KVM_CAP_ARM_SEA_TO_USER at VM creation, after +querying the capability. Once enabled, when KVM has to handle the guest +caused SEA, it returns to userspace with KVM_EXIT_ARM_SEA, with details +about the SEA available in 'arm_sea'. + +The 'esr' field holds the value of the exception syndrome register (ESR) while +KVM taking the SEA, which tells userspace the character of the current SEA, +such as its Exception Class, Synchronous Error Type, Fault Specific Code and +so on. For more details on ESR, check the Arm Architecture Registers +documentation. + +The following values are defined for the 'flags' field + + - KVM_EXIT_ARM_SEA_FLAG_GPA_VALID -- the faulting guest physical address + is valid and userspace can get its value in the 'gpa' field. + +Note userspace can tell whether the faulting guest virtual address is valid +from the FnV bit in 'esr' field. If FnV bit in 'esr' field is not set, the +'gva' field holds the valid faulting guest virtual address. + +Userspace needs to take actions to handle guest SEA synchronously, namely in +the same thread that runs KVM_RUN and receives KVM_EXIT_ARM_SEA. One of the +encouraged approach is to utilize the KVM_SET_VCPU_EVENTS to inject the SEA +to the faulting VCPU. This way, the guest has the opportunity to keep running +and limit the blast radius of the SEA to the particular guest application that +caused the SEA. Userspace may also emulate the SEA to VM by itself using the +KVM_SET_ONE_REG API. In this case, it can use the valid values from 'gva' and +'gpa' fields to manipulate VCPU's registers (e.g. FAR_EL1, HPFAR_EL1). + ::
