The changelog needs to explain how this is actually supposed to work. Doesn't
need gory details, just a basic explanation of the sequence of events to wake a
vCPU that requested a reset hold.
I apologize in advance for the following rant(s). There's some actionable feedback,
but a lot of it is just me complaining about the reset hold nonsense.
For the actual feedback, attached are two patches: patch 1 eliminates the
"first_sipi_received" hack, patch 2 is a (hopefully) fixed version of this patch
(but doesn't have an updated changelog). Both are compile tested only. There
will be a benign conflict with patch 05 of this series.

This can race with the SIPI and effectively corrupt svm->vmcb->control.ghcb_gpa.
vCPU0 vCPU1
#VMGEXIT(RESET_HOLD)
__kvm_vcpu_halt()
INIT
SIPI
sev_vcpu_deliver_sipi_vector()
ghcb_msr_ap_rst_resp(1);
ghcb_msr_ap_rst_resp(0);
Note, the "INIT" above is mostly a guess. I'm pretty sure it's necessary because
I don't see how KVM can possibly be correct otherwise. The SIPI handler (below)
quite clearly expects the vCPU to have been in an AP reset hold, but the invocation
of sev_vcpu_deliver_sipi_vector is gated by the vCPU being in
KVM_MP_STATE_INIT_RECEIVED, not KVM_MP_STATE_AP_RESET_HOLD. That implies the BSP
must INIT the AP.
if (vcpu->arch.mp_state == KVM_MP_STATE_INIT_RECEIVED) {
/* evaluate pending_events before reading the vector */
smp_rmb();
sipi_vector = apic->sipi_vector;
kvm_x86_ops.vcpu_deliver_sipi_vector(vcpu, sipi_vector);
vcpu->arch.mp_state = KVM_MP_STATE_RUNNABLE;
}
But the GHCB 2.0 spec doesn't actually say that; it instead implies that SIPI is
supposed to be able to directly wake the AP.
* When a guest AP reaches its HLT loop (or similar method for parking the AP),
it instead can either:
1. Issue an AP Reset Hold NAE event.
2. Issue the AP Reset Hold Request MSR Protocol
* The hypervisor treats treats either request like the guest issued a HLT
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^
spec typo ???
instruction and marks the vCPU as halted.
* When the hypervisor receives a SIPI request for the vCPU, it will not update
^^^^^^^^^^^^
any register values and, instead, it will either complete the AP Reset Hold
NAE event or complete the AP Reset Hold MSR protocol
* Mark the vCPU as active, allowing the VMGEXIT to complete.
* Upon return from the VMGEXIT, the AP must transition from its current execution
mode into real mode and begin executing at the reset vector supplied in the SIPI
request.
Piecing things together, my understanding is that the "hold request" really is
intended to be a HLT, but with extra semantics where the host sets sw_exit_info_2
to indicate that the vCPU was woken by INIT-SIPI.
It's probably too late to change the spec, but I'm going to complain anyways.
This is all ridiculously convoluted and completely unnecessary. As pointed out
in the SNP series regarding AP "creation", this can be fully handled in the guest
via a simple mailbox between firmware and kernel. What's really fubar is that
the guest firmware and kernel already have a mailbox! But it's defined by the
GHCB spec instead of e.g. ACPI, and so instead of handling this fully within the
guest, the hypervisor (and PSP to some extent on SNP because of the secrets page!!!)
gets involved.
The complications to support this in the guest firmware are hilarious, e.g. the
guest hasto manually switch from 64-bit mode to Real Mode just so that the kernel
can continue to use a horribly antiquated method for gaining control of APs.

Tying into above, handling this in SIPI is flawed. For example, if the guest
does INIT-SIPI-SIPI without a reset hold, KVM would incorrect set sw_exit_info_2
on the SIPI. Because this mess requires an INIT, KVM has lost track of whether
the guest was in KVM_MP_STATE_AP_RESET_HOLD and thus can't know if the SIPI
arrived after a reset hold. Looking at KVM, IIUC, this bug is why the hack
"received_first_sipi" exists.
Of course this all begs the question of why there's a "reset hold" concept in
the first place. It's literally HLT with a flag to say "you got INIT-SIPI".
But the guest has to supply and fill a jump table! Just put the flag in the
jump table!!!!

Doesn't this need to check for a null svm->ghcb?
I also suspect a boolean might make it easier to understand the implications
and also make the whole thing less error prone, e.g.
if (svm->reset_hold_msr_protocol) {
} else if (svm->ghcb) {

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] KVM: SVM: Set "released" on INIT-SIPI iff SEV-ES vCPU was
in AP reset hold
Set ghcb->sw_exit_info_2 when releasing a vCPU from an AP reset hold if
and only if the vCPU is actually in a reset hold. Move the handling to
INIT (was SIPI) so that KVM can check the current MP state; when SIPI is
received, the vCPU will be in INIT_RECEIVED and will have lost track of
whether or not the vCPU was in a reset hold.
Drop the received_first_sipi flag, which was a hack to workaround the
fact that KVM lost track of whether or not the vCPU was in a reset hold.
