Subject: Re: [PATCH v7 000/102] KVM TDX basic feature support
Hi. Because my description on large page support was terse, I wrote up more
detailed one. Any feedback/thoughts on large page support?
TDP MMU large page support design
Two main discussion points
* how to track page status. private vs shared, no-largepage vs can-be-largepage
* how to trigger merging mapping from 4KB/2MB to 2MB/1GB
Expected private-vs-shared page usage
-------------------------------------
On TD boot all pages are private and TD converts pages into shared if necessary.
* Most of the guest pages remain private.
* Only limited pages are converted at kernel boot
** bounce buffer for IO (virt-io). It's allocated as swiotlb. Its size is
64MB or 6% of total guest memory.
** KVM PV shared page. (the current guest TD doesn't use KVM PV shared page.)
* Only a small number of pages are dynamically converted from private to shared
and vice versa. This usage is very limited. e.g. GetQuote, the lack of
swiotlb buffer
Theory of Secure-EPT operations related to large page
-----------------------------------------------------
TDX Secure-EPT has differences from VMX EPT.
To add a page to Secure-EPT
* Here is the operation to resolve the EPT violation.
1. TD: Accepts GPA. TD needs to accept GPA before accessing GPA because TD
needs to detect that VMM unmaps GPA and maps GPA again.
2. EPT violation is triggered. TD exit to VMM.
3. VMM: allocate a page for GPA and TDH.MEM.PAGE.AUG it to GPA. Resume TD vcpu.
(3a. TD: #VE<EPT violation> is injected. #VE handler accepts the page)
4. TD: resume #VE and continue TD vcpu execution
TD may choose step 1. In that case, After step 3. #VE is injected into TD and,
TD #VE handler needs to accept the page.
When adding a page to Secure-EPT again, the page contexts are cleared and the
page is encrypted. If a page is disassociated from Secure-EPT and added again,
the page content is lost.
* TDG.VP.VMCALL<MapGPA> hypercall
The page associated with GPA can be private or shared. TD converts the GPA by
TDG.VP.VMCALL<MapGPA> hypercall from private to shared or vice versa. VMM
tracks whether the given GPA is private or shared.
* mapping merge(promote)/split(demote)
The page can be mapped as large page (2MB or 1GB) in addition to 4KB. The
mapping can be merged(4KB/2MB -> 2MB/1GB) or split(2MB/1GB -> 4KB/2MB) by TDX
SEAMCALL TDH.MEM.PAGE.PROMOTE and TDH.MEM.PAGE.DEMOTE.
The merge of mapping requires all the pages needs to be mapped, unlike VMX EPT
because of encryption. This implies the current KVM implementation doesn't work
for TDX when merging mapping as follows
- EPT violation and host page is 2MB mappable.
some of the 4KB pages of the given 2MB page are already mapped, some not.
i.e. 2MB EPT -> 4KB EPT -> 4K pages
- KVM page fault handler zap 2MB EPT entry and populate 2MB EPT entry
zap: 2MB EPT: non present
populate 2MB: -> 2MB page
If VMM zaps 2MB Secure-EPT entry, the page contents will be lost for TDX.
Mapping merge requires all pages are already mapped.
Instead, the following steps are needed.
- EPT violation and host page is 2MB mappable.
some of the 4KB pages of the given 2MB page are already mapped. Some not.
i.e. 2MB EPT -> 4KB EPT -> 4K pages
- VMM checks all 4KB GPAs are private. If not, it can't be mapped as a large page.
(****)
- VMM checks all 4KB GPAs are already mapped. If not, give up mapping merge.
(or map missing 4KB pages.)
- mapping merge by TDH.MEM.PAGE.PROMOTE
The mapping split for TDX Secure-EPT works similarly to the VMX EPT case.
EPT violation and MapGPA
------------------------
- EPT violation is a fast path
- MapGPA is not a fast path.
=> Keep the EPT violation path optimized and complicates the MapGPA path. For
(****) check, we don't want to scan the 4KB mapping on EPT violation. Instead,
the MapGPA path scans it and records the result as the page can be mapped as 2MB
due to private/shared.
Tracking private/shared and large page mappable
-----------------------------------------------
VMM needs to track that page is mapped as private or shared at 4KB granularity.
For efficiency of EPT violation path (****), at 2MB and 1GB level, VMM should
track the page can be mapped as a large page (regarding private/shared). VMM
updates it on MapGPA and references it on the EPT violation path. (****)
For 4KB pages, 1 bit is needed. private or shared. Let's call it shared-mask bit.
For 2MB/1GB pages, 2 bit is needed. large page mappable or not. private or
shared if mappable. Let's call it no-largepage bit.
Option A.)
Allocate array for pages in struct kvm_arch_memory_slot on TD creation.
struct kvm_arch_memory_slot {
+struct kvm_page_attr *page_attr[KVM_NR_PAGE_SIZES];
}
pros:
+straight forward implementation
+SPTE_SHARED_MASK is not needed
cons:
-memory overhead is high
-not optimized for expected usage
-one more look-up on EPT violation
Option B.) Steal two software usable bits from SPTE and record them in SPTE.
SPTE_SHARED_MASK, SPTE_NOLARGE_PAGE_MASK
pros:
+optimized for EPT violation
cons:
-2bits used in SPTE entry
-complicates the MapGPA path.
Option C.) Steal one software usable bit from SPTE and record it in SPTE.
SPTE_SHARED_MASK
For 2MB/1GB, allocate bitmap in kvm_mmu_page.
struct kvm_mmu_page {
bitmap nolarge
}
pros:
+optimized for EPT violation
cons:
-complicates the MapGPA path.
-information is scattered in SPTE and struct kvm_mmu_page
How to update those bits
------------------------
- MapGPA
- at 4KB level, set or clear shared-mask bit.
- Scan 512 4KB bit, at 2MB level
- set or clear shared-mask bit, clear no-largepage bit or
- clear shared-mask bit, set no-largepage bit
- increment/decrement lpageinfo to prevent/allow large page
- similar for 1GB level
Note: This logic might a bit tricky.
- EPT violation
- If 2MB large page is allowed, check if no-largepage bit
- If no-largepage bit is set, => go down to 4KB page
- If no-largepage bit is cleared => try to map 2MB page
- If 4KB level is not mapped, map 2MB page
- If some 4KB level is already mapped, go down to 4KB.
Don't try to merge mapping. Or it's possible to try to merge mapping.
Note: 512 4KB entry scanning is not done at EPT violation because it's fast
path.
Map merging
-----------
Map merging is necessary for TD migration. (Map split is the easy part.) The
current KVM implementation zaps the range (mmu notification or lpage recovery
worker) and expects large page mapping on the next EPT violation.
Option A.) Keep the code similar to map merging logic.
Zap 2MB EPT entry in some sense and trigger map merging logic on the next EPT
violation. To keep encrypted page contents, zapped EPT entries needs to keep
the page. Steal one more bits from SPTE. SPTE_PRIVATE_BLOCKED_MASK.
It means that the page is zapped from SPTE. but it still alive and references
page.
Option B.) In the callback, directly merge mapping somehow. In this case, mmu
notifier usage doesn't make sense.
NOTE:
- Implement map merging in MapGPA. This doesn't work for dirty page logging.
- We can utilize kvm_nx_lpage_recovery_worker
- We can utilize THP. Probably doesn't work well for fd-based private memory.

> * TSC Virtualization
> The TDX module helps TDs maintain reliable TSC (Time Stamp Counter) values
> (e.g. consistent among the TD VCPUs) and the virtual TSC frequency is determined
> by TD configuration, i.e. when the TD is created, not per VCPU. The current KVM
> owns TSC virtualization for VMs, but the TDX module does for TDs.
>
> * MCE support for TDs
> The TDX module doesn't allow VMM to inject MCE. Instead PV way is needed for TD
> to communicate with VMM. For now, KVM silently ignores MCE request by VMM. MSRs
> related to MCE (e.g, MCE bank registers) can be naturally emulated by
> paravirtualizing MSR access.

> * Prerequisites
> It's required to load the TDX module and initialize it. It's out of the scope
> of this patch series. Another independent patch for the common x86 code is
> planned. It defines CONFIG_INTEL_TDX_HOST and this patch series uses
> CONFIG_INTEL_TDX_HOST. It's assumed that With CONFIG_INTEL_TDX_HOST=y, the TDX
> module is initialized and ready for KVM to use the TDX module APIs for TDX guest
> life cycle like tdh.mng.init are ready to use.
>
> Concretely Global initialization, LP (Logical Processor) initialization, global
> configuration, the key configuration, and TDMR and PAMT initialization are done.
> The state of the TDX module is SYS_READY. Please refer to the TDX module
> specification, the chapter Intel TDX Module Lifecycle State Machine
>
> ** Detecting the TDX module readiness.
> TDX host patch series implements the detection of the TDX module availability
> and its initialization so that KVM can use it. Also it manages Host KeyID
> (HKID) assigned to guest TD.
> The assumed APIs the TDX host patch series provides are
> - int seamrr_enabled()
> Check if required cpu feature (SEAM mode) is available. This only check CPU
> feature availability. At this point, the TDX module may not be ready for KVM
> to use.
> - int init_tdx(void);
> Initialization of TDX module so that the TDX module is ready for KVM to use.
> - const struct tdsysinfo_struct *tdx_get_sysinfo(void);
> Return the system wide information about the TDX module. NULL if the TDX
> isn't initialized.
> - u32 tdx_get_global_keyid(void);
> Return global key id that is used for the TDX module itself.
> - int tdx_keyid_alloc(void);
> Allocate HKID for guest TD.
> - void tdx_keyid_free(int keyid);
> Free HKID for guest TD.
>
> (****)
> * TDX KVM high-level design
> - Host key ID management
> Host Key ID (HKID) needs to be assigned to each TDX guest for memory encryption.
> It is assumed The TDX host patch series implements necessary functions,
> u32 tdx_get_global_keyid(void), int tdx_keyid_alloc(void) and,
> void tdx_keyid_free(int keyid).
>
> - Data structures and VM type
> Because TDX is different from VMX, define its own VM/VCPU structures, struct
> kvm_tdx and struct vcpu_tdx instead of struct kvm_vmx and struct vcpu_vmx. To
> identify the VM, introduce VM-type to specify which VM type, VMX (default) or
> TDX, is used.
>
> - VM life cycle and TDX specific operations
> Re-purpose the existing KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_OP to add TDX specific operations.
> New commands are used to get the TDX system parameters, set TDX specific VM/VCPU
> parameters, set initial guest memory and measurement.
>
> The creation of TDX VM requires five additional operations in addition to the
> conventional VM creation.
> - Get KVM system capability to check if TDX VM type is supported
> - VM creation (KVM_CREATE_VM)
> - New: Get the TDX specific system parameters. KVM_TDX_GET_CAPABILITY.
> - New: Set TDX specific VM parameters. KVM_TDX_INIT_VM.
> - VCPU creation (KVM_CREATE_VCPU)
> - New: Set TDX specific VCPU parameters. KVM_TDX_INIT_VCPU.
> - New: Initialize guest memory as boot state and extend the measurement with
> the memory. KVM_TDX_INIT_MEM_REGION.
> - New: Finalize VM. KVM_TDX_FINALIZE. Complete measurement of the initial
> TDX VM contents.
> - VCPU RUN (KVM_VCPU_RUN)
>
> - Protected guest state
> Because the guest state (CPU state and guest memory) is protected, the KVM VMM
> can't operate on them. For example, accessing CPU registers, injecting
> exceptions, and accessing guest memory. Those operations are handled as
> silently ignored, returning zero or initial reset value when it's requested via
> KVM API ioctls.
>
> VM/VCPU state and callbacks for TDX specific operations.
> Define tdx specific VM state and VCPU state instead of VMX ones. Redirect
> operations to TDX specific callbacks. "if (tdx) tdx_op() else vmx_op()".
>
> Operations on the CPU state
> silently ignore operations on the guest state. For example, the write to
> CPU registers is ignored and the read from CPU registers returns 0.
>
> . ignore access to CPU registers except for allowed ones.
> . TSC: add a check if tsc is immutable and return an error. Because the KVM
> implementation updates the internal tsc state and it's difficult to back
> out those changes. Instead, skip the logic.
> . dirty logging: add check if dirty logging is supported.
> . exceptions/SMI/MCE/SIPI/INIT: silently ignore
>
> Note: virtual external interrupt and NMI can be injected into TDX guests.
>
> - KVM MMU integration
> One bit of the guest physical address (bit 51 or 47) is repurposed to indicate if
> the guest physical address is private (the bit is cleared) or shared (the bit is
> set). The bits are called stolen bits.
>
> - Stolen bits framework
> systematically tracks which guest physical address, shared or private, is
> used.
>
> - Shared EPT and secure EPT
> There are two EPTs. Shared EPT (the conventional one) and Secure
> EPT(the new one). Shared EPT is handled the same for the stolen
> bit set. Secure EPT points to private guest pages. To resolve
> EPT violation, KVM walks one of two EPTs based on faulted GPA.
> Because it's costly to access secure EPT during walking EPTs with
> SEAMCALLs for the private guest physical address, another private
> EPT is used as a shadow of Secure-EPT with the existing logic at
> the cost of extra memory.
>
> The following depicts the relationship.
