[PATCH v3 03/57] KVM: x86: Do all post-set CPUID processing during vCPU creation

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

 



During vCPU creation, process KVM's default, empty CPUID as if userspace
set an empty CPUID to ensure consistent and correct behavior with respect
to guest CPUID.  E.g. if userspace never sets guest CPUID, KVM will never
configure cr4_guest_rsvd_bits, and thus create divergent, incorrect, guest-
visible behavior due to letting the guest set any KVM-supported CR4 bits
despite the features not being allowed per guest CPUID.

Note!  This changes KVM's ABI, as lack of full CPUID processing allowed
userspace to stuff garbage vCPU state, e.g. userspace could set CR4 to a
guest-unsupported value via KVM_SET_SREGS.  But it's extremely unlikely
that this is a breaking change, as KVM already has many flows that require
userspace to set guest CPUID before loading vCPU state.  E.g. multiple MSR
flows consult guest CPUID on host writes, and KVM_SET_SREGS itself already
relies on guest CPUID being up-to-date, as KVM's validity check on CR3
consumes CPUID.0x7.1 (for LAM) and CPUID.0x80000008 (for MAXPHYADDR).

Furthermore, the plan is to commit to enforcing guest CPUID for userspace
writes to MSRs, at which point bypassing sregs CPUID checks is even more
nonsensical.
