2018-12-21 | powerpc/vfio/iommu/kvm: Do not pin device memory | Alexey Kardashevskiy | |
This new memory does not have page structs as it is not plugged to the host so gup() will fail anyway. This adds 2 helpers: - mm_iommu_newdev() to preregister the "memory device" memory so the rest of API can still be used; - mm_iommu_is_devmem() to know if the physical address is one of thise new regions which we must avoid unpinning of. This adds @mm to tce_page_is_contained() and iommu_tce_xchg() to test if the memory is device memory to avoid pfn_to_page(). This adds a check for device memory in mm_iommu_ua_mark_dirty_rm() which does delayed pages dirtying.

2018-12-21 | powerpc/mm/iommu/vfio_spapr_tce: Change mm_iommu_get to reference a region | Alexey Kardashevskiy | |
Normally mm_iommu_get() should add a reference and mm_iommu_put() should remove it. However historically mm_iommu_find() does the referencing and mm_iommu_get() is doing allocation and referencing. We are going to add another helper to preregister device memory so instead of having mm_iommu_new() (which pre-registers the normal memory and references the region), we need separate helpers for pre-registering and referencing. This renames: - mm_iommu_get to mm_iommu_new; - mm_iommu_find to mm_iommu_get. This changes mm_iommu_get() to reference the region so the name now reflects what it does. This removes the check for exact match from mm_iommu_new() as we want it to fail on existing regions; mm_iommu_get() should be used instead.

2018-09-12 | KVM: PPC: Avoid marking DMA-mapped pages dirty in real mode | Alexey Kardashevskiy | |
At the moment the real mode handler of H_PUT_TCE calls iommu_tce_xchg_rm() which in turn reads the old TCE and if it was a valid entry, marks the physical page dirty if it was mapped for writing. Since it is in real mode, realmode_pfn_to_page() is used instead of pfn_to_page() to get the page struct. However SetPageDirty() itself reads the compound page head and returns a virtual address for the head page struct and setting dirty bit for that kills the system. This adds additional dirty bit tracking into the MM/IOMMU API for use in the real mode. Note that this does not change how VFIO and KVM (in virtual mode) set this bit. The KVM (real mode) changes include: - use the lowest bit of the cached host phys address to carry the dirty bit; - mark pages dirty when they are unpinned which happens when the preregistered memory is released which always happens in virtual mode; - add mm_iommu_ua_mark_dirty_rm() helper to set delayed dirty bit; - change iommu_tce_xchg_rm() to take the kvm struct for the mm to use in the new mm_iommu_ua_mark_dirty_rm() helper; - move iommu_tce_xchg_rm() to book3s_64_vio_hv.c (which is the only caller anyway) to reduce the real mode KVM and IOMMU knowledge across different subsystems. This removes realmode_pfn_to_page() as it is not used anymore. While we at it, remove some EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() as that code is for the real mode only and modules cannot call it anyway.

2018-08-23 | KVM: PPC: Book3S: Fix guest DMA when guest partially backed by THP pages | Paul Mackerras | |
Commit 76fa4975f3ed ("KVM: PPC: Check if IOMMU page is contained in the pinned physical page", 2018-07-17) added some checks to ensure that guest DMA mappings don't attempt to map more than the guest is entitled to access. However, errors in the logic mean that legitimate guest requests to map pages for DMA are being denied in some situations. Specifically, if the first page of the range passed to mm_iommu_get() is mapped with a normal page, and subsequent pages are mapped with transparent huge pages, we end up with mem->pageshift == 0. That means that the page size checks in mm_iommu_ua_to_hpa() and mm_iommu_up_to_hpa_rm() will always fail for every page in that region, and thus the guest can never map any memory in that region for DMA, typically leading to a flood of error messages like this: qemu-system-ppc64: VFIO_MAP_DMA: -22 qemu-system-ppc64: vfio_dma_map(0x10005f47780, 0x800000000000000, 0x10000, 0x7fff63ff0000) = -22 (Invalid argument) The logic errors in mm_iommu_get() are: (a) use of 'ua' not 'ua + (i << PAGE_SHIFT)' in the find_linux_pte() call (meaning that find_linux_pte() returns the pte for the first address in the range, not the address we are currently up to); (b) use of 'pageshift' as the variable to receive the hugepage shift returned by find_linux_pte() - for a normal page this gets set to 0, leading to us setting mem->pageshift to 0 when we conclude that the pte returned by find_linux_pte() didn't match the page we were looking at; (c) comparing 'compshift', which is a page order, i.e. log base 2 of the number of pages, with 'pageshift', which is a log base 2 of the number of bytes. To fix these problems, this patch introduces 'cur_ua' to hold the current user address and uses that in the find_linux_pte() call; introduces 'pteshift' to hold the hugepage shift found by find_linux_pte(); and compares 'pteshift' with 'compshift + PAGE_SHIFT' rather than 'compshift'. The patch also moves the local_irq_restore to the point after the PTE pointer returned by find_linux_pte() has been dereferenced because otherwise the PTE could change underneath us, and adds a check to avoid doing the find_linux_pte() call once mem->pageshift has been reduced to PAGE_SHIFT, as an optimization.

2018-07-18 | KVM: PPC: Check if IOMMU page is contained in the pinned physical page | Alexey Kardashevskiy | |
A VM which has: - a DMA capable device passed through to it (eg. network card); - running a malicious kernel that ignores H_PUT_TCE failure; - capability of using IOMMU pages bigger that physical pages can create an IOMMU mapping that exposes (for example) 16MB of the host physical memory to the device when only 64K was allocated to the VM. The remaining 16MB - 64K will be some other content of host memory, possibly including pages of the VM, but also pages of host kernel memory, host programs or other VMs. The attacking VM does not control the location of the page it can map, and is only allowed to map as many pages as it has pages of RAM. We already have a check in drivers/vfio/vfio_iommu_spapr_tce.c that an IOMMU page is contained in the physical page so the PCI hardware won't get access to unassigned host memory; however this check is missing in the KVM fastpath (H_PUT_TCE accelerated code). We were lucky so far and did not hit this yet as the very first time when the mapping happens we do not have tbl::it_userspace allocated yet and fall back to the userspace which in turn calls VFIO IOMMU driver, this fails and the guest does not retry, This stores the smallest preregistered page size in the preregistered region descriptor and changes the mm_iommu_xxx API to check this against the IOMMU page size. This calculates maximum page size as a minimum of the natural region alignment and compound page size. For the page shift this uses the shift returned by find_linux_pte() which indicates how the page is mapped to the current userspace - if the page is huge and this is not a zero, then it is a leaf pte and the page is mapped within the range.

2018-06-12 | treewide: Use array_size() in vzalloc() | Kees Cook | |
The vzalloc() function has no 2-factor argument form, so multiplication factors need to be wrapped in array_size(). This patch replaces cases of: vzalloc(a * b) with: vzalloc(array_size(a, b)) as well as handling cases of: vzalloc(a * b * c) with: vzalloc(array3_size(a, b, c)) This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like: vzalloc(4 * 1024) though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion. Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were dropped, since they're redundant. The Coccinelle script used for this was: // Fix redundant parens around sizeof(). @@ type TYPE; expression THING, E; @@ ( vzalloc( - (sizeof(TYPE)) * E + sizeof(TYPE) * E , ...) | vzalloc( - (sizeof(THING)) * E + sizeof(THING) * E , ...) ) // Drop single-byte sizes and redundant parens. @@ expression COUNT; typedef u8; typedef __u8; @@ ( vzalloc( - sizeof(u8) * (COUNT) + COUNT , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(__u8) * (COUNT) + COUNT , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(char) * (COUNT) + COUNT , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(unsigned char) * (COUNT) + COUNT , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(u8) * COUNT + COUNT , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(__u8) * COUNT + COUNT , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(char) * COUNT + COUNT , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(unsigned char) * COUNT + COUNT , ...) ) // 2-factor product with sizeof(type/expression) and identifier or constant. @@ type TYPE; expression THING; identifier COUNT_ID; constant COUNT_CONST; @@ ( vzalloc( - sizeof(TYPE) * (COUNT_ID) + array_size(COUNT_ID, sizeof(TYPE)) , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(TYPE) * COUNT_ID + array_size(COUNT_ID, sizeof(TYPE)) , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(TYPE) * (COUNT_CONST) + array_size(COUNT_CONST, sizeof(TYPE)) , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(TYPE) * COUNT_CONST + array_size(COUNT_CONST, sizeof(TYPE)) , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(THING) * (COUNT_ID) + array_size(COUNT_ID, sizeof(THING)) , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(THING) * COUNT_ID + array_size(COUNT_ID, sizeof(THING)) , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(THING) * (COUNT_CONST) + array_size(COUNT_CONST, sizeof(THING)) , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(THING) * COUNT_CONST + array_size(COUNT_CONST, sizeof(THING)) , ...) ) // 2-factor product, only identifiers. @@ identifier SIZE, COUNT; @@ vzalloc( - SIZE * COUNT + array_size(COUNT, SIZE) , ...) // 3-factor product with 1 sizeof(type) or sizeof(expression), with // redundant parens removed. @@ expression THING; identifier STRIDE, COUNT; type TYPE; @@ ( vzalloc( - sizeof(TYPE) * (COUNT) * (STRIDE) + array3_size(COUNT, STRIDE, sizeof(TYPE)) , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(TYPE) * (COUNT) * STRIDE + array3_size(COUNT, STRIDE, sizeof(TYPE)) , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(TYPE) * COUNT * (STRIDE) + array3_size(COUNT, STRIDE, sizeof(TYPE)) , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(TYPE) * COUNT * STRIDE + array3_size(COUNT, STRIDE, sizeof(TYPE)) , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(THING) * (COUNT) * (STRIDE) + array3_size(COUNT, STRIDE, sizeof(THING)) , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(THING) * (COUNT) * STRIDE + array3_size(COUNT, STRIDE, sizeof(THING)) , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(THING) * COUNT * (STRIDE) + array3_size(COUNT, STRIDE, sizeof(THING)) , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(THING) * COUNT * STRIDE + array3_size(COUNT, STRIDE, sizeof(THING)) , ...) ) // 3-factor product with 2 sizeof(variable), with redundant parens removed. @@ expression THING1, THING2; identifier COUNT; type TYPE1, TYPE2; @@ ( vzalloc( - sizeof(TYPE1) * sizeof(TYPE2) * COUNT + array3_size(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE1), sizeof(TYPE2)) , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(TYPE1) * sizeof(THING2) * (COUNT) + array3_size(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE1), sizeof(TYPE2)) , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(THING1) * sizeof(THING2) * COUNT + array3_size(COUNT, sizeof(THING1), sizeof(THING2)) , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(THING1) * sizeof(THING2) * (COUNT) + array3_size(COUNT, sizeof(THING1), sizeof(THING2)) , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(TYPE1) * sizeof(THING2) * COUNT + array3_size(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE1), sizeof(THING2)) , ...) | vzalloc( - sizeof(TYPE1) * sizeof(THING2) * (COUNT) + array3_size(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE1), sizeof(THING2)) , ...) ) // 3-factor product, only identifiers, with redundant parens removed. @@ identifier STRIDE, SIZE, COUNT; @@ ( vzalloc( - (COUNT) * STRIDE * SIZE + array3_size(COUNT, STRIDE, SIZE) , ...) | vzalloc( - COUNT * (STRIDE) * SIZE + array3_size(COUNT, STRIDE, SIZE) , ...) | vzalloc( - COUNT * STRIDE * (SIZE) + array3_size(COUNT, STRIDE, SIZE) , ...) | vzalloc( - (COUNT) * (STRIDE) * SIZE + array3_size(COUNT, STRIDE, SIZE) , ...) | vzalloc( - COUNT * (STRIDE) * (SIZE) + array3_size(COUNT, STRIDE, SIZE) , ...) | vzalloc( - (COUNT) * STRIDE * (SIZE) + array3_size(COUNT, STRIDE, SIZE) , ...) | vzalloc( - (COUNT) * (STRIDE) * (SIZE) + array3_size(COUNT, STRIDE, SIZE) , ...) | vzalloc( - COUNT * STRIDE * SIZE + array3_size(COUNT, STRIDE, SIZE) , ...) ) // Any remaining multi-factor products, first at least 3-factor products // when they're not all constants... @@ expression E1, E2, E3; constant C1, C2, C3; @@ ( vzalloc(C1 * C2 * C3, ...) | vzalloc( - E1 * E2 * E3 + array3_size(E1, E2, E3) , ...) ) // And then all remaining 2 factors products when they're not all constants. @@ expression E1, E2; constant C1, C2; @@ ( vzalloc(C1 * C2, ...) | vzalloc( - E1 * E2 + array_size(E1, E2) , ...) ) Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> | |||

2016-12-02 | powerpc/mm/iommu, vfio/spapr: Put pages on VFIO container shutdown | Alexey Kardashevskiy | |
At the moment the userspace tool is expected to request pinning of the entire guest RAM when VFIO IOMMU SPAPR v2 driver is present. When the userspace process finishes, all the pinned pages need to be put; this is done as a part of the userspace memory context (MM) destruction which happens on the very last mmdrop(). This approach has a problem that a MM of the userspace process may live longer than the userspace process itself as kernel threads use userspace process MMs which was runnning on a CPU where the kernel thread was scheduled to. If this happened, the MM remains referenced until this exact kernel thread wakes up again and releases the very last reference to the MM, on an idle system this can take even hours. This moves preregistered regions tracking from MM to VFIO; insteads of using mm_iommu_table_group_mem_t::used, tce_container::prereg_list is added so each container releases regions which it has pre-registered. This changes the userspace interface to return EBUSY if a memory region is already registered in a container. However it should not have any practical effect as the only userspace tool available now does register memory region once per container anyway. As tce_iommu_register_pages/tce_iommu_unregister_pages are called under container->lock, this does not need additional locking.

2016-09-29 | KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Migrate pinned pages out of CMA | Balbir Singh | |
When PCI Device pass-through is enabled via VFIO, KVM-PPC will pin pages using get_user_pages_fast(). One of the downsides of the pinning is that the page could be in CMA region. The CMA region is used for other allocations like the hash page table. Ideally we want the pinned pages to be from non CMA region. This patch (currently only for KVM PPC with VFIO) forcefully migrates the pages out (huge pages are omitted for the moment). There are more efficient ways of doing this, but that might be elaborate and might impact a larger audience beyond just the kvm ppc implementation. The magic is in new_iommu_non_cma_page() which allocates the new page from a non CMA region. I've tested the patches lightly at my end. The full solution requires migration of THP pages in the CMA region. That work will be done incrementally on top of this.

2015-06-11 | powerpc/mmu: Add userspace-to-physical addresses translation cache | Alexey Kardashevskiy | |
We are adding support for DMA memory pre-registration to be used in conjunction with VFIO. The idea is that the userspace which is going to run a guest may want to pre-register a user space memory region so it all gets pinned once and never goes away. Having this done, a hypervisor will not have to pin/unpin pages on every DMA map/unmap request. This is going to help with multiple pinning of the same memory. Another use of it is in-kernel real mode (mmu off) acceleration of DMA requests where real time translation of guest physical to host physical addresses is non-trivial and may fail as linux ptes may be temporarily invalid. Also, having cached host physical addresses (compared to just pinning at the start and then walking the page table again on every H_PUT_TCE), we can be sure that the addresses which we put into TCE table are the ones we already pinned. This adds a list of memory regions to mm_context_t. Each region consists of a header and a list of physical addresses. This adds API to: 1. register/unregister memory regions; 2. do final cleanup (which puts all pre-registered pages); 3. do userspace to physical address translation; 4. manage usage counters; multiple registration of the same memory is allowed (once per container). This implements 2 counters per registered memory region: - @mapped: incremented on every DMA mapping; decremented on unmapping; initialized to 1 when a region is just registered; once it becomes zero, no more mappings allowe; - @used: incremented on every "register" ioctl; decremented on "unregister"; unregistration is allowed for DMA mapped regions unless it is the very last reference. For the very last reference this checks that the region is still mapped and returns -EBUSY so the userspace gets to know that memory is still pinned and unregistration needs to be retried; @used remains 1. Host physical addresses are stored in vmalloc'ed array. In order to access these in the real mode (mmu off), there is a real_vmalloc_addr() helper. In-kernel acceleration patchset will move it from KVM to MMU code.
