92cdeac6a4
- Fix and optimize IRQ window inhibit handling for AVIC (the tracking needs to
be per-vCPU, e.g. so that KVM doesn't prematurely re-enable AVIC if multiple
vCPUs have to-be-injected IRQs).
- Fix an undefined behavior warning where a crafty userspace can read the
"avic" module param before it's fully initialized.
- Fix a (likely benign) bug in the "OS-visible workarounds" handling, where
KVM could clobber state when enabling virtualization on multiple CPUs in
parallel, and clean up and optimize the code.
- Drop a WARN in KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_REG_REGION where KVM complains about a
"too large" size based purely on user input, and clean up and harden the
related pinning code.
- Disallow synchronizing a VMSA of an already-launched/encrypted vCPU, as
doing so for an SNP guest will trigger an RMP violation #PF and crash the
host.
- Protect all of sev_mem_enc_register_region() with kvm->lock to ensure
sev_guest() is stable for the entire of the function.
- Lock all vCPUs when synchronizing VMSAs for SNP guests to ensure the VMSA
page isn't actively being used.
- Overhaul KVM's APIs for detecting SEV+ guests so that VM-scoped queries are
required to hold kvm->lock (KVM has had multiple bugs due "is SEV?" checks
becoming stale), enforced by lockdep. Add and use vCPU-scoped APIs when
possible/appropriate, as all checks that originate from a vCPU are
guaranteed to be stable.
- Convert a pile of kvm->lock SEV code to guard().
