Message-Id: <20230327075838.5403-1-xin3.li@intel.com> Date: Mon, 27 Mar 2023 00:58:05 -0700 From: Xin Li <xin3.li@...el.com> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, x86@...nel.org, kvm@...r.kernel.org Cc: tglx@...utronix.de, mingo@...hat.com, bp@...en8.de, dave.hansen@...ux.intel.com, hpa@...or.com, peterz@...radead.org, andrew.cooper3@...rix.com, seanjc@...gle.com, pbonzini@...hat.com, ravi.v.shankar@...el.com, jiangshanlai@...il.com, shan.kang@...el.com Subject: [PATCH v6 00/33] x86: enable FRED for x86-64 This patch set enables FRED for x86-64. The Intel flexible return and event delivery (FRED) architecture defines simple new transitions that change privilege level (ring transitions). The FRED architecture was designed with the following goals: 1) Improve overall performance and response time by replacing event delivery through the interrupt descriptor table (IDT event delivery) and event return by the IRET instruction with lower latency transitions. 2) Improve software robustness by ensuring that event delivery establishes the full supervisor context and that event return establishes the full user context. The new transitions defined by the FRED architecture are FRED event delivery and, for returning from events, two FRED return instructions. FRED event delivery can effect a transition from ring 3 to ring 0, but it is used also to deliver events incident to ring 0. One FRED instruction (ERETU) effects a return from ring 0 to ring 3, while the other (ERETS) returns while remaining in ring 0. Search for the latest FRED spec in most search engines with this search pattern: site:intel.com FRED (flexible return and event delivery) specification As of now there is no publicly avaiable CPU supporting FRED, thus the Intel SimicsĀ® Simulator is used as software development and testing vehicles. And it can be downloaded from: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/articles/tool/simics-simulator.html To enable FRED, the Simics package 8112 QSP-CPU needs to be installed with CPU model configured as: $cpu_comp_class = "x86-experimental-fred" Longer term, we should refactor common code shared by FRED and IDT into common shared files, and contain IDT code using a new config CONFIG_X86_IDT. Changes since v5: * Initialize system_interrupt_handlers with dispatch_table_spurious_interrupt() instead of NULL to get rid of a branch (Peter Zijlstra). * Disallow #DB inside #MCE for robustness sake (Peter Zijlstra). * Add a comment for FRED stack level settings (Lai Jiangshan). * Move the NMI bit from an invalid stack frame, which caused ERETU to fault, to the fault handler's stack frame, thus to unblock NMI ASAP if NMI is blocked (Lai Jiangshan). * Refactor VMX_DO_EVENT_IRQOFF to handle IRQ/NMI in IRQ/NMI induced VM exits when FRED is enabled (Sean Christopherson). Changes since v4: * Do NOT use the term "injection", which in the KVM context means to reinject an event into the guest (Sean Christopherson). * Add the explanation of why to execute "int $2" to invoke the NMI handler in NMI caused VM exits (Sean Christopherson). * Use cs/ss instead of csx/ssx when initializing the pt_regs structure for calling external_interrupt(), otherwise it breaks i386 build. Changes since v3: * Call external_interrupt() to handle IRQ in IRQ caused VM exits. * Execute "int $2" to handle NMI in NMI caused VM exits. * Rename csl/ssl of the pt_regs structure to csx/ssx (x for extended) (Andrew Cooper). Changes since v2: * Improve comments for changes in arch/x86/include/asm/idtentry.h. Changes since v1: * call irqentry_nmi_{enter,exit}() in both IDT and FRED debug fault kernel handler (Peter Zijlstra). * Initialize a FRED exception handler to fred_bad_event() instead of NULL if no FRED handler defined for an exception vector (Peter Zijlstra). * Push calling irqentry_{enter,exit}() and instrumentation_{begin,end}() down into individual FRED exception handlers, instead of in the dispatch framework (Peter Zijlstra).
