[PATCH] x86/kvmclock: Fix Hyper-V Isolated VM's boot issue when vCPUs > 64

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When Linux runs as an Isolated VM on Hyper-V, it supports AMD SEV-SNP
but it's partially enlightened, i.e. cc_platform_has(
CC_ATTR_GUEST_MEM_ENCRYPT) is true but sev_active() is false.

Commit 4d96f9109109 per se is good, but with it now
kvm_setup_vsyscall_timeinfo() -> kvmclock_init_mem() calls
set_memory_decrypted(), and later gets stuck when trying to zere out
the pages pointed by 'hvclock_mem', if Linux runs as an Isolated VM on
Hyper-V. The cause is that here now the Linux VM should no longer access
the original guest physical addrss (GPA); instead the VM should do
memremap() and access the original GPA + ms_hyperv.shared_gpa_boundary:
see the example code in drivers/hv/connection.c: vmbus_connect() or
drivers/hv/ring_buffer.c: hv_ringbuffer_init(). If the VM tries to
access the original GPA, it keepts getting injected a fault by Hyper-V
and gets stuck there.

Here the issue happens only when the VM has >=65 vCPUs, because the
global static array hv_clock_boot[] can hold 64 "struct
pvclock_vsyscall_time_info" (the sizeof of the struct is 64 bytes), so
kvmclock_init_mem() only allocates memory in the case of vCPUs > 64.

Since the 'hvclock_mem' pages are only useful when the kvm clock is
supported by the underlying hypervisor, fix the issue by returning
early when Linux VM runs on Hyper-V, which doesn't support kvm clock.
