Bah, I suppose the trouble is that this SEV crap requires PARAVIRT? I should really get around to fixing noinstr validation with PARAVIRT on :-( On Thu, Jun 10, 2021 at 11:11:38AM +0200, Joerg Roedel wrote: > +static void vc_handle_from_kernel(struct pt_regs *regs, unsigned long error_code) static noinstr ... > +{ > + irqentry_state_t irq_state = irqentry_nmi_enter(regs); > > + instrumentation_begin(); > > + if (!vc_raw_handle_exception(regs, error_code)) { > /* Show some debug info */ > show_regs(regs); > > @@ -1434,7 +1400,59 @@ DEFINE_IDTENTRY_VC_SAFE_STACK(exc_vmm_communication) > panic("Returned from Terminate-Request to Hypervisor\n"); > } > > + instrumentation_end(); > + irqentry_nmi_exit(regs, irq_state); > +} > + > +static void vc_handle_from_user(struct pt_regs *regs, unsigned long error_code) static noinstr ... > +{ > + irqentry_state_t irq_state = irqentry_enter(regs); > + > + instrumentation_begin(); > + > + if (!vc_raw_handle_exception(regs, error_code)) { > + /* > + * Do not kill the machine if user-space triggered the > + * exception.

When I look at idtentry_vc, it appears to me that VC_SAFE_STACK already implies from-user, or am I reading that wrong? Ah, it appears you're muddling things up again by then also calling safe_stack_ from exc_. How about you don't do that and have exc_ call your new from_kernel function, then we know that safe_stack_ is always from-user. Then also maybe do: s/VS_SAFE_STACK/VC_USER/ s/safe_stack_/noist_/ to match all the others (#DB/MCE). Also, AFAICT, you don't actually need DEFINE_IDTENTRY_VC_IST, it doesn't have an ASM counterpart. So then you end up with something like: DEFINE_IDTENTRY_VC(exc_vc) { if (unlikely(on_vc_fallback_stack(regs))) { instrumentation_begin(); panic("boohooo\n"); instrumentation_end(); } vc_from_kernel(); } DEFINE_IDTENTRY_VC_USER(exc_vc) { vc_from_user(); } Which is, I'm thinking, much simpler, no? _______________________________________________ Virtualization mailing list Virtualization@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/virtualization
