[RFC PATCH 0/5] Extend SEV-SNP SVSM support with a kvm_vcpu per VMPL
Posted by Roy Hopkins 2 months, 1 week ago
I've prepared this series as an extension to the RFC patch series: 'SEV-SNP
support for running an SVSM' posted by Tom Lendacky [1]. This extends the
support for transitioning a vCPU between VM Privilege Levels (VMPLs) by
storing the vCPU state for each VMPL in its own `struct kvm_vcpu`. This
additionally allows for separate APICs for each VMPL.

In treating each VMPL as a `struct kvm_vcpu` it makes it very simple to 
perform a VMPL transition. In most cases it is a simple as just switching
the context from one kvm_vcpu pointer to another. This results in very
low overhead VMPL switches. This can can also support the case where a VMPL
switch occurs during guest execution - something that we will need to support
for Intel TDX and perhaps other isolation technologies.

Obviously, there is much to consider when splitting a single vCPU into being
managed by multiple `struct kvm_vcpu`s. First and foremost is the fact that
much of the state should be shared between all kvm_vcpu's that relate to a
single vCPU, such as the vCPU ID, requests, mutexes, etc. This series
introduces a solution where the common fields are accessed via a pointer in
each kvm_vcpu. Unfortunately this means that any code that refers to these
fields needs to be updated, resulting in the first patch in the series that
touches many areas of the code.

This is very much proof-of-concept code and, like Tom's series, is introduced
to trigger discussions around implementing VMPL support and not intended for
merging at this stage. The code currently has some instabilities during guest
startup which I need to locate.

This series is based off the same tip tree as [1], and the patches from that
series need to be applied before this series:
  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git master

  b0c57a7002b0 ("Merge branch into tip/master: 'x86/cpu'")

[1] Provide SEV-SNP support for running under an SVSM
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/cover.1706307364.git.thomas.lendacky@amd.com/

Roy Hopkins (5):
  kvm: Move kvm_vcpu fields into common structure
  x86/kvm: Create a child struct kvm_vcpu for each VMPL
  kvm/sev: Update SEV VMPL handling to use multiple struct kvm_vcpus
  x86/kvm: Add x86 field to find the default VMPL that IRQs should
    target
  x86/kvm: Add target VMPL to IRQs and send to APIC for VMPL

I couldn't attend KVM forum, but I understand based on feedback at a
session there, Paolo took the lead to provide an architecture document
for this feature, is that correct?  Just asking because I haven't
noticed anything about this on the list.

Yep.

Heh, there's quite a queue of blocked readers (and writers!) at this point ;-)

Well, at least one person had a writer's block instead.

I had it almost ready but then noticed a few hiccups in the design we 
came up with, and have been seating on it for a while.  I'm sending it 
now, finishing the commit messages.

Thanks for doing that.  For those on linux-coco who don't follow the
KVM list, the document is here:
