>From 027d609f885c1f7d46afc0f68eab33c006fa57c6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stephan Baerwolf Date: Sun, 8 Jan 2012 02:03:47 +0000 Subject: [PATCH 2/2] KVM: fix missing "illegal instruction"-trap in protected modes On hosts without this patch, 32bit guests will crash (and 64bit guests may behave in a wrong way) for example by simply executing following nasm-demo-application: [bits 32] global _start SECTION .text _start: syscall (I tested it with winxp and linux - both always crashed) Disassembly of section .text: 00000000 <_start>: 0: 0f 05 syscall The reason seems a missing "invalid opcode"-trap (int6) for the syscall opcode "0f05", which is not available on Intel CPUs within non-longmodes, as also on some AMD CPUs within legacy-mode. (depending on CPU vendor, MSR_EFER and cpuid) Because previous mentioned OSs may not engage corresponding syscall target-registers (STAR, LSTAR, CSTAR), they remain NULL and (non trapping) syscalls are leading to multiple faults and finally crashs. Depending on the architecture (AMD or Intel) pretended by guests, various checks according to vendor's documentation are implemented to overcome the current issue and behave like the CPUs physical counterparts. (Therefore using Intel's "Intel 64 and IA-32 Architecture Software Developers Manual" http://www.intel.com/content/dam/doc/manual/ 64-ia-32-architectures-software-developer-manual-325462.pdf and AMD's "AMD64 Architecture Programmer's Manual Volume 3: General-Purpose and System Instructions" http://support.amd.com/us/Processor_TechDocs/APM_V3_24594.pdf ) Screenshots of an i686 testing VM (CORE i5 host) before and after applying this patch are available under: http://matrixstorm.com/software/linux/kvm/20111229/before.jpg http://matrixstorm.com/software/linux/kvm/20111229/after.jpg Signed-off-by: Stephan Baerwolf --- arch/x86/include/asm/kvm_emulate.h | 15 +++++++++ arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c | 57 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 72 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/x86/include/asm/kvm_emulate.h b/arch/x86/include/asm/kvm_emulate.h index a026507..2a86ff9 100644 --- a/arch/x86/include/asm/kvm_emulate.h +++ b/arch/x86/include/asm/kvm_emulate.h @@ -297,6 +297,21 @@ struct x86_emulate_ctxt { #define X86EMUL_MODE_PROT (X86EMUL_MODE_PROT16|X86EMUL_MODE_PROT32| \ X86EMUL_MODE_PROT64) +/* CPUID vendors */ +#define X86EMUL_CPUID_VENDOR_AuthenticAMD_ebx 0x68747541 +#define X86EMUL_CPUID_VENDOR_AuthenticAMD_ecx 0x444d4163 +#define X86EMUL_CPUID_VENDOR_AuthenticAMD_edx 0x69746e65 + +#define X86EMUL_CPUID_VENDOR_AMDisbetter_ebx 0x69444d41 +#define X86EMUL_CPUID_VENDOR_AMDisbetter_ecx 0x21726574 +#define X86EMUL_CPUID_VENDOR_AMDisbetter_edx 0x74656273 + +#define X86EMUL_CPUID_VENDOR_GenuineIntel_ebx 0x756e6547 +#define X86EMUL_CPUID_VENDOR_GenuineIntel_ecx 0x6c65746e +#define X86EMUL_CPUID_VENDOR_GenuineIntel_edx 0x49656e69 + + + enum x86_intercept_stage { X86_ICTP_NONE = 0, /* Allow zero-init to not match anything */ X86_ICPT_PRE_EXCEPT, diff --git a/arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c b/arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c index f1e3be1..78edb66 100644 --- a/arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c +++ b/arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c @@ -1891,6 +1891,63 @@ static int em_syscall(struct x86_emulate_ctxt *ctxt) return emulate_ud(ctxt); ops->get_msr(ctxt, MSR_EFER, &efer); + // check - if guestOS is aware of syscall (0x0f05) + if ((efer & EFER_SCE) == 0) return emulate_ud(ctxt); + else { + // ok, at this point it becomes vendor-specific + // so first get us an cpuid + struct kvm_cpuid_entry2 *vendor; + + // eax = 0x00000000, ebx = 0x00000000 ==> cpu-vendor + vendor = kvm_find_cpuid_entry(emul_to_vcpu(ctxt), 0, 0); + + if (likely(vendor)) { + // AMD (AuthenticAMD)/(AMDisbetter!) + if ((vendor->ebx==X86EMUL_CPUID_VENDOR_AuthenticAMD_ebx && + vendor->ecx==X86EMUL_CPUID_VENDOR_AuthenticAMD_ecx && + vendor->edx==X86EMUL_CPUID_VENDOR_AuthenticAMD_edx) || + (vendor->ebx==X86EMUL_CPUID_VENDOR_AMDisbetter_ebx && + vendor->ecx==X86EMUL_CPUID_VENDOR_AMDisbetter_ecx && + vendor->edx==X86EMUL_CPUID_VENDOR_AMDisbetter_edx)) { + + // if cpu is not in longmode... + // ...check edx bit11 of cpuid 0x80000001 + if (ctxt->mode != X86EMUL_MODE_PROT64) { + vendor= kvm_find_cpuid_entry(emul_to_vcpu(ctxt), 0x80000001, 0); + if (likely(vendor)) { + if (unlikely(((vendor->edx >> 11) & 0x1) == 0)) return emulate_ud(ctxt); + } else return emulate_ud(ctxt); // assuming there is no bit 11 + } + goto __em_syscall_vendor_processed; + } // end "AMD" + + // Intel (GenuineIntel) + // remarks: Intel CPUs only support "syscall" in 64bit longmode + // Also an 64bit guest within an 32bit compat-app running + // will #UD !! + // While this behaviour can be fixed (by emulating) into + // an AMD response - CPUs of AMD can't behave like Intel + // because without an hardware-raised #UD there is no + // call into emulation-mode (see x86_emulate_instruction(...)) ! + // TODO: make AMD-behaviour configurable + if (vendor->ebx==X86EMUL_CPUID_VENDOR_GenuineIntel_ebx && + vendor->ecx==X86EMUL_CPUID_VENDOR_GenuineIntel_ecx && + vendor->edx==X86EMUL_CPUID_VENDOR_GenuineIntel_edx) { + if (ctxt->mode != X86EMUL_MODE_PROT64) return emulate_ud(ctxt); + goto __em_syscall_vendor_processed; + } // end "Intel" + } //end "likely(vendor)" + + // default: + // this code wasn't able to process vendor + // so apply Intels stricter rules... + pr_unimpl(emul_to_vcpu(ctxt), "unknown vendor of cpu - assuming intel\n"); + if (ctxt->mode != X86EMUL_MODE_PROT64) return emulate_ud(ctxt); + + __em_syscall_vendor_processed: + vendor=NULL; + } + setup_syscalls_segments(ctxt, &cs, &ss); ops->get_msr(ctxt, MSR_STAR, &msr_data); -- 1.7.3.4
