Subject: KVM: vmx, svm: always run with EFER.NXE=1 when shadow paging is
active
Origin: https://git.kernel.org/linus/9167ab79936206118cc60e47dcb926c3489f3bd5
Bug-Debian-Security: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2018-12207
VMX already does so if the host has SMEP, in order to support the combination of
CR0.WP=1 and CR4.SMEP=1. However, it is perfectly safe to always do so, and in
fact VMX already ends up running with EFER.NXE=1 on old processors that lack the
"load EFER" controls, because it may help avoiding a slow MSR write. Removing
all the conditionals simplifies the code.
SVM does not have similar code, but it should since recent AMD processors do
support SMEP. So this patch also makes the code for the two vendors more similar
while fixing NPT=0, CR0.WP=1 and CR4.SMEP=1 on AMD processors.

Bug-Debian-Security: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2018-12207
The largepages debugfs entry is incremented/decremented as shadow
pages are created or destroyed. Clearing it will result in an
underflow, which is harmless to KVM but ugly (and could be
misinterpreted by tools that use debugfs information), so make
this particular statistic read-only.

Subject: [1/7] x86/bugs: Add ITLB_MULTIHIT bug infrastructure
Origin: https://git.kernel.org/linus/db4d30fbb71b47e4ecb11c4efa5d8aad4b03dfae
Bug-Debian-Security: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2018-12207
Some processors may incur a machine check error possibly resulting in an
unrecoverable CPU lockup when an instruction fetch encounters a TLB
multi-hit in the instruction TLB. This can occur when the page size is
changed along with either the physical address or cache type. The relevant
erratum can be found here:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=205195
There are other processors affected for which the erratum does not fully
disclose the impact.
This issue affects both bare-metal x86 page tables and EPT.
It can be mitigated by either eliminating the use of large pages or by
using careful TLB invalidations when changing the page size in the page
tables.
Just like Spectre, Meltdown, L1TF and MDS, a new bit has been allocated in
MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES (PSCHANGE_MC_NO) and will be set on CPUs which
are mitigated against this issue.

whitelist. ATOM_TREMONT_D is not affected by X86_BUG_ITLB_MULTIHIT.
ATOM_TREMONT_D might have mitigations against other issues as well, but
only the ITLB multihit mitigation is confirmed at this point.

Subject: [3/7] cpu/speculation: Uninline and export CPU mitigations helpers
Origin: https://git.kernel.org/linus/731dc9df975a5da21237a18c3384f811a7a41cc6
Bug-Debian-Security: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2018-12207
A kernel module may need to check the value of the "mitigations=" kernel
command line parameter as part of its setup when the module needs
to perform software mitigations for a CPU flaw.
Uninline and export the helper functions surrounding the cpu_mitigations
enum to allow for their usage from a module.
Lastly, privatize the enum and cpu_mitigations variable since the value of
cpu_mitigations can be checked with the exported helper functions.

Subject: [4/7] kvm: mmu: ITLB_MULTIHIT mitigation
Origin: https://git.kernel.org/linus/b8e8c8303ff28c61046a4d0f6ea99aea609a7dc0
Bug-Debian-Security: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2018-12207
With some Intel processors, putting the same virtual address in the TLB
as both a 4 KiB and 2 MiB page can confuse the instruction fetch unit
and cause the processor to issue a machine check resulting in a CPU lockup.
Unfortunately when EPT page tables use huge pages, it is possible for a
malicious guest to cause this situation.
Add a knob to mark huge pages as non-executable. When the nx_huge_pages
parameter is enabled (and we are using EPT), all huge pages are marked as
NX. If the guest attempts to execute in one of those pages, the page is
broken down into 4K pages, which are then marked executable.
This is not an issue for shadow paging (except nested EPT), because then
the host is in control of TLB flushes and the problematic situation cannot
happen. With nested EPT, again the nested guest can cause problems shadow
and direct EPT is treated in the same way.

Subject: [6/7] kvm: x86: mmu: Recovery of shattered NX large pages
Origin: https://git.kernel.org/linus/1aa9b9572b10529c2e64e2b8f44025d86e124308
Bug-Debian-Security: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2018-12207
The page table pages corresponding to broken down large pages are zapped in
FIFO order, so that the large page can potentially be recovered, if it is
not longer being used for execution. This removes the performance penalty
for walking deeper EPT page tables.
By default, one large page will last about one hour once the guest
reaches a steady state.

+iTLB multihit
+=============
+
+iTLB multihit is an erratum where some processors may incur a machine check
+error, possibly resulting in an unrecoverable CPU lockup, when an
+instruction fetch hits multiple entries in the instruction TLB. This can
+occur when the page size is changed along with either the physical address
+or cache type. A malicious guest running on a virtualized system can
+exploit this erratum to perform a denial of service attack.
+
+
+Affected processors
+-------------------
+
+Variations of this erratum are present on most Intel Core and Xeon processor
+models. The erratum is not present on:
+
+ - non-Intel processors
+
+ - Some Atoms (Airmont, Bonnell, Goldmont, GoldmontPlus, Saltwell, Silvermont)
+
+ - Intel processors that have the PSCHANGE_MC_NO bit set in the
+ IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES MSR.
+
+
+Related CVEs
+------------
+
+The following CVE entry is related to this issue:
+
+ ============== =================================================
+ CVE-2018-12207 Machine Check Error Avoidance on Page Size Change
+ ============== =================================================
+
+
+Problem
+-------
+
+Privileged software, including OS and virtual machine managers (VMM), are in
+charge of memory management. A key component in memory management is the control
+of the page tables. Modern processors use virtual memory, a technique that creates
+the illusion of a very large memory for processors. This virtual space is split
+into pages of a given size. Page tables translate virtual addresses to physical
+addresses.
+
+To reduce latency when performing a virtual to physical address translation,
+processors include a structure, called TLB, that caches recent translations.
+There are separate TLBs for instruction (iTLB) and data (dTLB).
+
+Under this errata, instructions are fetched from a linear address translated
+using a 4 KB translation cached in the iTLB. Privileged software modifies the
+paging structure so that the same linear address using large page size (2 MB, 4
+MB, 1 GB) with a different physical address or memory type. After the page
+structure modification but before the software invalidates any iTLB entries for
+the linear address, a code fetch that happens on the same linear address may
+cause a machine-check error which can result in a system hang or shutdown.
+
+
+Attack scenarios
+----------------
+
+Attacks against the iTLB multihit erratum can be mounted from malicious
+guests in a virtualized system.
+
+
+iTLB multihit system information
+--------------------------------
+
+The Linux kernel provides a sysfs interface to enumerate the current iTLB
+multihit status of the system:whether the system is vulnerable and which
+mitigations are active. The relevant sysfs file is:
+
+/sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/itlb_multihit
+
+The possible values in this file are:
+
+.. list-table::
+
+ * - Not affected
+ - The processor is not vulnerable.
+ * - KVM: Mitigation: Split huge pages
+ - Software changes mitigate this issue.
+ * - KVM: Vulnerable
+ - The processor is vulnerable, but no mitigation enabled
+
+
+Enumeration of the erratum
+--------------------------------
+
+A new bit has been allocated in the IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES (PSCHANGE_MC_NO) msr
+and will be set on CPU's which are mitigated against this issue.
+
+ ======================================= =========== ===============================
+ IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES MSR Not present Possibly vulnerable,check model
+ IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES[PSCHANGE_MC_NO] '0' Likely vulnerable,check model
+ IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES[PSCHANGE_MC_NO] '1' Not vulnerable
+ ======================================= =========== ===============================
+
+
+Mitigation mechanism
+-------------------------
+
+This erratum can be mitigated by restricting the use of large page sizes to
+non-executable pages. This forces all iTLB entries to be 4K, and removes
+the possibility of multiple hits.
+
+In order to mitigate the vulnerability, KVM initially marks all huge pages
+as non-executable. If the guest attempts to execute in one of those pages,
+the page is broken down into 4K pages, which are then marked executable.
+
+If EPT is disabled or not available on the host, KVM is in control of TLB
+flushes and the problematic situation cannot happen. However, the shadow
+EPT paging mechanism used by nested virtualization is vulnerable, because
+the nested guest can trigger multiple iTLB hits by modifying its own
+(non-nested) page tables. For simplicity, KVM will make large pages
+non-executable in all shadow paging modes.
+
+Mitigation control on the kernel command line and KVM - module parameter
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+The KVM hypervisor mitigation mechanism for marking huge pages as
+non-executable can be controlled with a module parameter "nx_huge_pages=".
+The kernel command line allows to control the iTLB multihit mitigations at
+boot time with the option "kvm.nx_huge_pages=".
+
+The valid arguments for these options are:
+
+ ========== ================================================================
+ force Mitigation is enabled. In this case, the mitigation implements
+ non-executable huge pages in Linux kernel KVM module. All huge
+ pages in the EPT are marked as non-executable.
+ If a guest attempts to execute in one of those pages, the page is
+ broken down into 4K pages, which are then marked executable.
+
+ off Mitigation is disabled.
+
+ auto Enable mitigation only if the platform is affected and the kernel
+ was not booted with the "mitigations=off" command line parameter.
+ This is the default option.
+ ========== ================================================================
+
+
+Mitigation selection guide
+--------------------------
+
+1. No virtualization in use
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+ The system is protected by the kernel unconditionally and no further
+ action is required.
+
+2. Virtualization with trusted guests
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+ If the guest comes from a trusted source, you may assume that the guest will
+ not attempt to maliciously exploit these errata and no further action is
+ required.
+
+3. Virtualization with untrusted guests
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+ If the guest comes from an untrusted source, the guest host kernel will need
+ to apply iTLB multihit mitigation via the kernel command line or kvm
+ module parameter.
