Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] KVM: selftests: Add logic to detect if ioctl() failed
because VM was killed
Add yet another macro to the VM/vCPU ioctl() framework to detect when an
ioctl() failed because KVM killed/bugged the VM, i.e. when there was
nothing wrong with the ioctl() itself. If KVM kills a VM, e.g. by way of
a failed KVM_BUG_ON(), all subsequent VM and vCPU ioctl()s will fail with
-EIO, which can be quite misleading and ultimately waste user/developer
time.
Use KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION on KVM_CAP_USER_MEMORY to detect if the VM is
dead and/or bug, as KVM doesn't provide a dedicated ioctl(). Using a
heuristic is obviously less than ideal, but practically speaking the logic
is bulletproof barring a KVM change, and any such change would arguably
break userspace, e.g. if KVM returns something other than -EIO.
Without the detection, tearing down a bugged VM yields a cryptic failure
when deleting memslots:
==== Test Assertion Failure ====
lib/kvm_util.c:689: !ret
pid=45131 tid=45131 errno=5 - Input/output error
1 0x00000000004036c3: __vm_mem_region_delete at kvm_util.c:689
2 0x00000000004042f0: kvm_vm_free at kvm_util.c:724 (discriminator 12)
3 0x0000000000402929: race_sync_regs at sync_regs_test.c:193
4 0x0000000000401cab: main at sync_regs_test.c:334 (discriminator 6)
5 0x0000000000416f13: __libc_start_call_main at libc-start.o:?
6 0x000000000041855f: __libc_start_main_impl at ??:?
7 0x0000000000401d40: _start at ??:?
KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION failed, rc: -1 errno: 5 (Input/output error)
Which morphs into a more pointed error message with the detection:
==== Test Assertion Failure ====
lib/kvm_util.c:689: false
pid=80347 tid=80347 errno=5 - Input/output error

KVM killed/bugged the VM, check the kernel log for clues
