[PATCH v2 0/2] KVM: arm64: Work around firmware wongly advertising GICv2 compatibility

From: Marc Zyngier <maz@kernel.org>
Date: 2021-01-15 14:05:30

It appears that there is firmware out there that advertises GICv2
compatibility on GICv3, despite the CPUs not being able to actually do
it. That's a bummer, and at best creates unexpected behaviours for the
users. At worse, it will crash the machine. Awesome!

In order to mitigate this issue, try and validate whether we can
actually flip the CPU into supporting MMIO accesses instead of system
registers. If we can't, ignore the compatibility information and
shout. It's not completely foolproof, but it should cover the existing
broken platforms...

The workaround is much more invasive than Shameer's initial proposal,
as I wanted to keep it localised to KVM instead of spreading the
horror at every level (after all, only KVM is concerned with v2
compatibility).

Tested on a deliberately misconfigured FVP (DT advertising the MMIO
regions with cluster*.gicv3.cpuintf-mmap-access-level=2).

* From v1:
  - Fixed silly thinko when computing the configuration state

[PATCH v2 2/2] KVM: arm64: Workaround firmware wrongly advertising GICv2-on-v3 compatibility

From: Marc Zyngier <maz@kernel.org>
Date: 2021-01-15 14:05:34

It looks like we have broken firmware out there that wrongly advertises
a GICv2 compatibility interface, despite the CPUs not being able to deal
with it.

To work around this, check that the CPU initialising KVM is actually able
to switch to MMIO instead of system registers, and use that as a
precondition to enable GICv2 compatibility in KVM.

Note that the detection happens on a single CPU. If the firmware is
lying *and* that the CPUs are asymetric, all hope is lost anyway.

[PATCH v2 1/2] KVM: arm64: Rename __vgic_v3_get_ich_vtr_el2() to __vgic_v3_get_gic_config()

From: Marc Zyngier <maz@kernel.org>
Date: 2021-01-15 14:05:55

As we are about to report a bit more information to the rest of
the kernel, rename __vgic_v3_get_ich_vtr_el2() to the more
explicit __vgic_v3_get_gic_config().

No functional change.

Absolutely! That's what it now looks like:

[    2.649259] [Firmware Bug]: CPU interface incapable of MMIO access

[    2.650227] kvm [1]: GIC system register CPU interface enabled
[    2.652004] kvm [1]: vgic interrupt IRQ9
[    2.655623] kvm [1]: VHE mode initialized successfully

Updated version pushed out.

Thanks,

         M.

Could we include FW_BUG here to stress that this is a firmware problem?

Absolutely! That's what it now looks like:

[    2.648452] kvm [1]: IPA Size Limit: 40 bits
[    2.649259] [Firmware Bug]: CPU interface incapable of MMIO access
[    2.649620] kvm [1]: disabling GICv2 emulation
[    2.650227] kvm [1]: GIC system register CPU interface enabled
[    2.652004] kvm [1]: vgic interrupt IRQ9
[    2.655623] kvm [1]: VHE mode initialized successfully

Updated version pushed out.

Is there a v3 for this series? I couldn't find one.

Anyways, tested this series on a D06 with faulty firmware and it is working as expected.
FWIW,

Nope, I didn't think it was useful to send another series for such
a minor change.

Anyways, tested this series on a D06 with faulty firmware and it is
working as expected.
