Introduce an ioctl(), KVM_CREATE_GUEST_MEMFD, to allow creating file-based
memory that is tied to a specific KVM virtual machine and whose primary
purpose is to serve guest memory.

A guest-first memory subsystem allows for optimizations and enhancements
that are kludgy or outright infeasible to implement/support in a generic
memory subsystem.  With guest_memfd, guest protections and mapping sizes
are fully decoupled from host userspace mappings.   E.g. KVM currently
doesn't support mapping memory as writable in the guest without it also
being writable in host userspace, as KVM's ABI uses VMA protections to
define the allow guest protection.  Userspace can fudge this by
establishing two mappings, a writable mapping for the guest and readable
one for itself, but that’s suboptimal on multiple fronts.

Similarly, KVM currently requires the guest mapping size to be a strict
subset of the host userspace mapping size, e.g. KVM doesn’t support
creating a 1GiB guest mapping unless userspace also has a 1GiB guest
mapping.  Decoupling the mappings sizes would allow userspace to precisely
map only what is needed without impacting guest performance, e.g. to
harden against unintentional accesses to guest memory.

Decoupling guest and userspace mappings may also allow for a cleaner
alternative to high-granularity mappings for HugeTLB, which has reached a
bit of an impasse and is unlikely to ever be merged.

A guest-first memory subsystem also provides clearer line of sight to
things like a dedicated memory pool (for slice-of-hardware VMs) and
elimination of "struct page" (for offload setups where userspace _never_
needs to mmap() guest memory).

More immediately, being able to map memory into KVM guests without mapping
said memory into the host is critical for Confidential VMs (CoCo VMs), the
initial use case for guest_memfd.  While AMD's SEV and Intel's TDX prevent
untrusted software from reading guest private data by encrypting guest
memory with a key that isn't usable by the untrusted host, projects such
as Protected KVM (pKVM) provide confidentiality and integrity *without*
relying on memory encryption.  And with SEV-SNP and TDX, accessing guest
private memory can be fatal to the host, i.e. KVM must be prevent host
userspace from accessing guest memory irrespective of hardware behavior.

Attempt #1 to support CoCo VMs was to add a VMA flag to mark memory as
being mappable only by KVM (or a similarly enlightened kernel subsystem).
That approach was abandoned largely due to it needing to play games with
PROT_NONE to prevent userspace from accessing guest memory.

Attempt #2 to was to usurp PG_hwpoison to prevent the host from mapping
guest private memory into userspace, but that approach failed to meet
several requirements for software-based CoCo VMs, e.g. pKVM, as the kernel
wouldn't easily be able to enforce a 1:1 page:guest association, let alone
a 1:1 pfn:gfn mapping.  And using PG_hwpoison does not work for memory
that isn't backed by 'struct page', e.g. if devices gain support for
exposing encrypted memory regions to guests.

Attempt #3 was to extend the memfd() syscall and wrap shmem to provide
dedicated file-based guest memory.  That approach made it as far as v10
before feedback from Hugh Dickins and Christian Brauner (and others) led
to it demise.

Hugh's objection was that piggybacking shmem made no sense for KVM's use
case as KVM didn't actually *want* the features provided by shmem.  I.e.
KVM was using memfd() and shmem to avoid having to manage memory directly,
not because memfd() and shmem were the optimal solution, e.g. things like
read/write/mmap in shmem were dead weight.

Christian pointed out flaws with implementing a partial overlay (wrapping
only _some_ of shmem), e.g. poking at inode_operations or super_operations
would show shmem stuff, but address_space_operations and file_operations
would show KVM's overlay.  Paraphrashing heavily, Christian suggested KVM
stop being lazy and create a proper API.

+must point at a file created via KVM_CREATE_GUEST_MEMFD on the current VM, and

+A KVM_MEM_PRIVATE region _must_ have a valid guest_memfd (private memory) and
+userspace_addr (shared memory).  However, "valid" for userspace_addr simply
+means that the address itself must be a legal userspace address.  The backing
+mapping for userspace_addr is not required to be valid/populated at the time of
+KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION2, e.g. shared memory can be lazily mapped/allocated
+on-demand.
+
+When mapping a gfn into the guest, KVM selects shared vs. private, i.e consumes
+userspace_addr vs. guest_memfd, based on the gfn's KVM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTE_PRIVATE
+state.  At VM creation time, all memory is shared, i.e. the PRIVATE attribute
+is '0' for all gfns.  Userspace can control whether memory is shared/private by
+toggling KVM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTE_PRIVATE via KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES as needed.

+
+KVM_CREATE_GUEST_MEMFD creates an anonymous file and returns a file descriptor
+that refers to it.  guest_memfd files are roughly analogous to files created
+via memfd_create(), e.g. guest_memfd files live in RAM, have volatile storage,
+and are automatically released when the last reference is dropped.  Unlike
+"regular" memfd_create() files, guest_memfd files are bound to their owning
+virtual machine (see below), cannot be mapped, read, or written by userspace,
+and cannot be resized  (guest_memfd files do however support PUNCH_HOLE).
+
+::
+
+  struct kvm_create_guest_memfd {
+	__u64 size;
+	__u64 flags;
+	__u64 reserved[6];
+  };
+
+Conceptually, the inode backing a guest_memfd file represents physical memory,
+i.e. is coupled to the virtual machine as a thing, not to a "struct kvm".  The
+file itself, which is bound to a "struct kvm", is that instance's view of the
+underlying memory, e.g. effectively provides the translation of guest addresses
+to host memory.  This allows for use cases where multiple KVM structures are
+used to manage a single virtual machine, e.g. when performing intrahost
+migration of a virtual machine.
+
+KVM currently only supports mapping guest_memfd via KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION2,
+and more specifically via the guest_memfd and guest_memfd_offset fields in
+"struct kvm_userspace_memory_region2", where guest_memfd_offset is the offset
+into the guest_memfd instance.  For a given guest_memfd file, there can be at
+most one mapping per page, i.e. binding multiple memory regions to a single
+guest_memfd range is not allowed (any number of memory regions can be bound to
+a single guest_memfd file, but the bound ranges must not overlap).
+
+See KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION2 for additional details.

Yes, that should be a ')', not a ']'.

Mostly to document the behavior.  The vast majority of folks that read this code
will be KVM developers, not file systems developers, and will likely have no clue
about the relationship between f_mapping and i_mapping.  And in the extremely
unlikely scenario that anon_inode_getfile_secure() no longer sets f_mapping, a
WARN detects the issue whereas a comment does not.

One struct too many.

All of these use-cases involve using guest_memfd for shared pages, but
this entire series sets up KVM to only use guest_memfd for private
pages.

For example, the per-page attributes are a property of a KVM VM, not the
underlying guest_memfd. So that implies we will need separate
guest_memfds for private and shared pages. But a given memslot can have
a mix of private and shared pages. So that implies a memslot will need
to support 2 guest_memfds? But the UAPI only allows 1 and uses the HVA
for shared mappings.

My initial reaction after reading through this series is that the
per-page private/shared should be a property of the guest_memfd, not the
VM. Maybe it would even be cleaner in the long-run to make all memory
attributes a property of the guest_memfd. That way we can scope the
support to only guest_memfds and not have to worry about making per-page
attributes work with "legacy" HVA-based memslots.

Maybe can you sketch out how you see this proposal being extensible to
using guest_memfd for shared mappings?

The cleanup, i.e., filemap_invalidate_unlock() and fput(), is common. So, I think it
may be slightly better to consolidate the common part e.g.,

	int ret = -EINVAL;

	...

	xa_store_range(&gmem->bindings, start, end - 1, slot, GFP_KERNEL);
	ret = 0;
unlock:
	filemap_invalidate_unlock(inode->i_mapping);
err:
	/*
	 * Drop the reference to the file, even on success.  The file pins KVM,
	 * not the other way 'round.  Active bindings are invalidated if the
	 * file is closed before memslots are destroyed.
	 */
	fput(file);
	return ret;

Nope, this is a bug.

I would prefer to keep this as-is.  Only goto needs the unlock, and I find it easier
to understand the success vs. error paths with explicit returns.  But it's not a
super strong preference.
