KVM: VMX: Reject KVM_RUN if emulation is required with pending exception
Reject KVM_RUN if emulation is required (because VMX is running without unrestricted guest) and an exception is pending, as KVM doesn't support emulating exceptions except when emulating real mode via vm86. The vCPU is hosed either way, but letting KVM_RUN proceed triggers a WARN due to the impossible condition. Alternatively, the WARN could be removed, but then userspace and/or KVM bugs would result in the vCPU silently running in a bad state, which isn't very friendly to users. Originally, the bug was hit by syzkaller with a nested guest as that doesn't require kvm_intel.unrestricted_guest=0. That particular flavor is likely fixed by commit cd0e615 ("KVM: nVMX: Synthesize TRIPLE_FAULT for L2 if emulation is required"), but it's trivial to trigger the WARN with a non-nested guest, and userspace can likely force bad state via ioctls() for a nested guest as well. Checking for the impossible condition needs to be deferred until KVM_RUN because KVM can't force specific ordering between ioctls. E.g. clearing exception.pending in KVM_SET_SREGS doesn't prevent userspace from setting it in KVM_SET_VCPU_EVENTS, and disallowing KVM_SET_VCPU_EVENTS with emulation_required would prevent userspace from queuing an exception and then stuffing sregs. Note, if KVM were to try and detect/prevent the condition prior to KVM_RUN, handle_invalid_guest_state() and/or handle_emulation_failure() would need to be modified to clear the pending exception prior to exiting to userspace. ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 6 PID: 137812 at arch/x86/kvm/vmx/vmx.c:1623 vmx_queue_exception+0x14f/0x160 [kvm_intel] CPU: 6 PID: 137812 Comm: vmx_invalid_nes Not tainted 5.15.2-7cc36c3e14ae-pop torvalds#279 Hardware name: ASUS Q87M-E/Q87M-E, BIOS 1102 03/03/2014 RIP: 0010:vmx_queue_exception+0x14f/0x160 [kvm_intel] Code: <0f> 0b e9 fd fe ff ff 66 2e 0f 1f 84 00 00 00 00 00 0f 1f 44 00 00 RSP: 0018:ffffa45c83577d38 EFLAGS: 00010202 RAX: 0000000000000003 RBX: 0000000080000006 RCX: 0000000000000006 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000010002 RDI: ffff9916af734000 RBP: ffff9916af734000 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000001 R12: 0000000000000006 R13: 0000000000000000 R14: ffff9916af734038 R15: 0000000000000000 FS: 00007f1e1a47c740(0000) GS:ffff99188fb80000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 00007f1e1a6a8008 CR3: 000000026f83b005 CR4: 00000000001726e0 Call Trace: kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run+0x13a2/0x1f20 [kvm] kvm_vcpu_ioctl+0x279/0x690 [kvm] __x64_sys_ioctl+0x83/0xb0 do_syscall_64+0x3b/0xc0 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae Reported-by: syzbot+82112403ace4cbd780d8@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Signed-off-by: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>
