[XEN][PATCH v7] x86: make Viridian support optional
Posted by Grygorii Strashko 1 month, 1 week ago
From: Sergiy Kibrik <Sergiy_Kibrik@epam.com>

Add config option VIRIDIAN that covers viridian code within HVM.
Calls to viridian functions guarded by is_viridian_domain() and related macros.
Having this option may be beneficial by reducing code footprint for systems
that are not using Hyper-V.

[grygorii_strashko@epam.com: fixed NULL pointer deref in
viridian_save_domain_ctxt(); stub viridian_vcpu/domain_init/deinit()]
Signed-off-by: Sergiy Kibrik <Sergiy_Kibrik@epam.com>
Signed-off-by: Grygorii Strashko <grygorii_strashko@epam.com>
---
changes in v7:
- s/!is_viridian_vcpu()/!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_VIRIDIAN) checks in
  viridian_load_vcpu/domain_ctxt(), because it is not
  guaranteed that HVM_PARAM_VIRIDIAN will be loaded before
  viridian_load_vcpu_ctxt() is called (comment from Jason Andryuk)

changes in v6:
- add stubs for viridian_vcpu/domain_init/deinit()
- update Kconfig description
- make set(HVM_PARAM_VIRIDIAN) return -ENODEV
  if (!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_VIRIDIAN) && value)

changes in v5:
- drop "depends on AMD_SVM || INTEL_VMX"
- return -EILSEQ from viridian_load_x() if !VIRIDIAN

changes in v4:
- s/HVM_VIRIDIAN/VIRIDIAN
- add "depends on AMD_SVM || INTEL_VMX"
- add guard !is_viridian_vcpu() checks in viridian_load_vcpu_ctxt/viridian_load_domain_ctxt

changes in v3:
- fixed NULL pointer deref in viridian_save_domain_ctxt() reported for v2,
  which caused v2 revert by commit 1fffcf10cd71 ("Revert "x86: make Viridian
  support optional"")

With this, what is the point of the additions to viridian_load_{domain,vcpu}_ctxt()?
You're adding dead code there, aren't you?

I find the check for value to be (non-)zero a little dubious here: If any caller
passed in 0, it would get back -EINVAL anyway. Imo -ENODEV would be more suitable
in that case as well. Things would be different if 0 was a valid value to pass in.

Hgrr. And we end up back to v3 regarding this part.
Check in viridian_load_{domain,vcpu}_ctxt() may/may not work depending on toolstack
behavior which is not strictly defined (loading HVM_PARAM_VIRIDIAN before/after
viridian_load_{domain,vcpu}_ctxt()).

So what's the conclusion here - drop this check?

The idea was to distinguish between "Feature enabled, Invalid parameter" and "Feature disabled".

Well, Misra wants us to not have any dead code. Hence why would we add new
instances of such?

But you don't, or else the addition would need to live after the -EINVAL checks.
I also question the utility of knowing "parameter was invalid" when the feature
isn't available anyway.

My understanding here - I need to drop non-zero "value" check.
will be:

     case HVM_PARAM_VIRIDIAN:
         if ( !IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_VIRIDIAN) )
             rc = -ENODEV;
         else if ( (value & ~HVMPV_feature_mask) || !(value & HVMPV_base_freq) )
             rc = -EINVAL;
         break;

Yes, or alternatively

    case HVM_PARAM_VIRIDIAN:
        if ( (value & ~HVMPV_feature_mask) || !(value & HVMPV_base_freq) )
            rc = -EINVAL;
        else if ( !IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_VIRIDIAN) )
            rc = -ENODEV;
        break;

Both have their up- and down-sides.

We should aim for Grygorii's form, imo. If anything because it eliminates
the second else-if on !VIRIDIAN, leading to a marginal binary size reduction.

There's no value in validation when viridian support just isn't there.
