This series aims to provide a clean solution to avoid the blind retries in
the previous hack [1] in "TDX MMU Part 2," following the initial
discussions to [2], further discussions in the RFC, and the PUCK [3].
A full analysis of the lock status for each SEAMCALL relevant to KVM is
available at [4].
This series categorizes the SEPT-related SEAMCALLs (used for page
installation and uninstallation) into three groups:
Group 1: tdh_mem_page_add().
- Invoked only during TD build time.
- Proposal: Return -EBUSY on TDX_OPERAND_BUSY.
- Patch 1.
Group 2: tdh_mem_sept_add(), tdh_mem_page_aug().
- Invoked for TD runtime page installation.
- Proposal: Retry locally in the TDX EPT violation handler for
RET_PF_RETRY.
- Patches 2-3.
Group 3: tdh_mem_range_block(), tdh_mem_track(), tdh_mem_page_remove().
- Invoked for page uninstallation, with KVM mmu_lock held for write.
- Proposal: Kick off vCPUs and no vCPU entry on TDX_OPERAND_BUSY.
- Patch 4.
Patches 5/6/7 are fixup patches:
Patch 5: Return -EBUSY instead of -EAGAIN when tdh_mem_sept_add() is busy.
Patch 6: Remove the retry loop for tdh_phymem_page_wbinvd_hkid().
Patch 7: Warn on force_immediate_exit in tdx_vcpu_run().
Code base: kvm-coco-queue 2f30b837bf7b.
Applies to the tail since the dependence on
commit 8e801e55ba8f ("KVM: TDX: Handle EPT violation/misconfig exit"),
Thanks

RFC --> v1:
- Split patch 1 in RFC into patches 1,2,3,5, and add new fixup patches 6/7.
- Add contention analysis of tdh_mem_page_add() in patch 1 log.
- Provide justification in patch 2 log and add checks for RET_PF_CONTINUE.
- Use "a per-VM flag wait_for_sept_zap + KVM_REQ_OUTSIDE_GUEST_MODE"
instead of a arch-specific request to prevent vCPUs from TD entry in patch 4
(Sean).

Thanks, I applied this to kvm-coco-queue and patch 2 to kvm/queue. It
is spread all over the branch to make the dependencies clearer, so
here's some ideas on how to include these.
Patches 6 and 7 should be squashed into the respective bases, as they
have essentially no functional change.
For the rest, patch 1 can be treated as a fixup too, and I have two
proposals.
First possibility, separate series:
* patches 1+5 are merged into a single patch.
* patches 3+4 become two more patches in this separate series
Second possibility, squash everything:
* patches 1+5 are squashed into the respective bases
* patches 3+4 are included in the EPT violation series
On the PUCK call I said that I prefer the first, mostly to keep track of
who needs to handle TDX_OPERAND_BUSY, but if it makes it easier for Yan
then feel free to go for the second.
