Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86: Load DR6 with guest value only before entering
.vcpu_run() loop
Move the conditional loading of hardware DR6 with the guest's DR6 value
out of the core .vcpu_run() loop to fix a bug where KVM can load hardware
with a stale vcpu->arch.dr6.
When the guest accesses a DR and host userspace isn't debugging the guest,
KVM disables DR interception and loads the guest's values into hardware on
VM-Enter and saves them on VM-Exit. This allows the guest to access DRs
at will, e.g. so that a sequence of DR accesses to configure a breakpoint
only generates one VM-Exit.
For DR0-DR3, the logic/behavior is identical between VMX and SVM, and also
identical between KVM_DEBUGREG_BP_ENABLED (userspace debugging the guest)
and KVM_DEBUGREG_WONT_EXIT (guest using DRs), and so KVM handles loading
DR0-DR3 in common code, _outside_ of the core kvm_x86_ops.vcpu_run() loop.
But for DR6, the guest's value doesn't need to be loaded into hardware for
KVM_DEBUGREG_BP_ENABLED, and SVM provides a dedicated VMCB field whereas
VMX requires software to manually load the guest value, and so loading the
guest's value into DR6 is handled by {svm,vmx}_vcpu_run(), i.e. is done
_inside_ the core run loop.
Unfortunately, saving the guest values on VM-Exit is initiated by common
x86, again outside of the core run loop. If the guest modifies DR6 (in
hardware, when DR interception is disabled), and then the next VM-Exit is
a fastpath VM-Exit, KVM will reload hardware DR6 with vcpu->arch.dr6 and
clobber the guest's actual value.
The bug shows up primarily with nested VMX because KVM handles the VMX
preemption timer in the fastpath, and the window between hardware DR6
being modified (in guest context) and DR6 being read by guest software is
orders of magnitude larger in a nested setup. E.g. in non-nested, the
VMX preemption timer would need to fire precisely between #DB injection
and the #DB handler's read of DR6, whereas with a KVM-on-KVM setup, the
window where hardware DR6 is "dirty" extends all the way from L1 writing
DR6 to VMRESUME (in L1).

Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86: Load DR6 with guest value only before entering
.vcpu_run() loop
Move the conditional loading of hardware DR6 with the guest's DR6 value
out of the core .vcpu_run() loop to fix a bug where KVM can load hardware
with a stale vcpu->arch.dr6.
When the guest accesses a DR and host userspace isn't debugging the guest,
KVM disables DR interception and loads the guest's values into hardware on
VM-Enter and saves them on VM-Exit. This allows the guest to access DRs
at will, e.g. so that a sequence of DR accesses to configure a breakpoint
only generates one VM-Exit.
For DR0-DR3, the logic/behavior is identical between VMX and SVM, and also
identical between KVM_DEBUGREG_BP_ENABLED (userspace debugging the guest)
and KVM_DEBUGREG_WONT_EXIT (guest using DRs), and so KVM handles loading
DR0-DR3 in common code, _outside_ of the core kvm_x86_ops.vcpu_run() loop.
But for DR6, the guest's value doesn't need to be loaded into hardware for
KVM_DEBUGREG_BP_ENABLED, and SVM provides a dedicated VMCB field whereas
VMX requires software to manually load the guest value, and so loading the
guest's value into DR6 is handled by {svm,vmx}_vcpu_run(), i.e. is done
_inside_ the core run loop.
Unfortunately, saving the guest values on VM-Exit is initiated by common
x86, again outside of the core run loop. If the guest modifies DR6 (in
hardware, when DR interception is disabled), and then the next VM-Exit is
a fastpath VM-Exit, KVM will reload hardware DR6 with vcpu->arch.dr6 and
clobber the guest's actual value.
The bug shows up primarily with nested VMX because KVM handles the VMX
preemption timer in the fastpath, and the window between hardware DR6
being modified (in guest context) and DR6 being read by guest software is
orders of magnitude larger in a nested setup. E.g. in non-nested, the
VMX preemption timer would need to fire precisely between #DB injection
and the #DB handler's read of DR6, whereas with a KVM-on-KVM setup, the
window where hardware DR6 is "dirty" extends all the way from L1 writing
DR6 to VMRESUME (in L1).

FEAT_PMUv3p9 registers such as PMICNTR_EL0, PMICFILTR_EL0, and PMUACR_EL1
access from EL1 requires appropriate EL2 fine grained trap configuration
via FEAT_FGT2 based trap control registers HDFGRTR2_EL2 and HDFGWTR2_EL2.
Otherwise such register accesses will result in traps into EL2.
Add a new helper __init_el2_fgt2() which initializes FEAT_FGT2 based fine
grained trap control registers HDFGRTR2_EL2 and HDFGWTR2_EL2 (setting the
bits nPMICNTR_EL0, nPMICFILTR_EL0 and nPMUACR_EL1) to enable access into
PMICNTR_EL0, PMICFILTR_EL0, and PMUACR_EL1 registers.
Also update booting.rst with SCR_EL3.FGTEn2 requirement for all FEAT_FGT2
based registers to be accessible in EL2.

Subject: [PATCH] block: fix ordering between checking QUEUE_FLAG_QUIESCED
request adding
Supposing the following scenario.
CPU0 CPU1
blk_mq_insert_request() 1) store
blk_mq_unquiesce_queue()
blk_queue_flag_clear() 3) store
blk_mq_run_hw_queues()
blk_mq_run_hw_queue()
if (!blk_mq_hctx_has_pending()) 4) load
return
blk_mq_run_hw_queue()
if (blk_queue_quiesced()) 2) load
return
blk_mq_sched_dispatch_requests()
The full memory barrier should be inserted between 1) and 2), as well as
between 3) and 4) to make sure that either CPU0 sees QUEUE_FLAG_QUIESCED
is cleared or CPU1 sees dispatch list or setting of bitmap of software
queue. Otherwise, either CPU will not rerun the hardware queue causing
starvation.
So the first solution is to 1) add a pair of memory barrier to fix the
problem, another solution is to 2) use hctx->queue->queue_lock to
synchronize QUEUE_FLAG_QUIESCED. Here, we chose 2) to fix it since
memory barrier is not easy to be maintained.

Subject: [PATCH] block: fix missing dispatching request when queue is started
or unquiesced
Supposing the following scenario with a virtio_blk driver.
CPU0 CPU1 CPU2
blk_mq_try_issue_directly()
__blk_mq_issue_directly()
q->mq_ops->queue_rq()
virtio_queue_rq()
blk_mq_stop_hw_queue()
virtblk_done()
blk_mq_try_issue_directly()
if (blk_mq_hctx_stopped())
blk_mq_request_bypass_insert() blk_mq_run_hw_queue()
blk_mq_run_hw_queue() blk_mq_run_hw_queue()
blk_mq_insert_request()
return
After CPU0 has marked the queue as stopped, CPU1 will see the queue is
stopped. But before CPU1 puts the request on the dispatch list, CPU2
receives the interrupt of completion of request, so it will run the
hardware queue and marks the queue as non-stopped. Meanwhile, CPU1 also
runs the same hardware queue. After both CPU1 and CPU2 complete
blk_mq_run_hw_queue(), CPU1 just puts the request to the same hardware
queue and returns. It misses dispatching a request. Fix it by running
the hardware queue explicitly. And blk_mq_request_issue_directly()
should handle a similar situation. Fix it as well.
