[PATCH 5.10 354/530] KVM: x86/mmu: Retry page faults that hit an invalid memslot

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

Subsystem: kernel virtual machine for x86 (kvm/x86), the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) · Maintainers: Sean Christopherson, Paolo Bonzini, Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen

[ Upstream commit e0c378684b6545ad2d4403bb701d0ac4932b4e95 ]

Retry page faults (re-enter the guest) that hit an invalid memslot
instead of treating the memslot as not existing, i.e. handling the
page fault as an MMIO access.  When deleting a memslot, SPTEs aren't
zapped and the TLBs aren't flushed until after the memslot has been
marked invalid.

Handling the invalid slot as MMIO means there's a small window where a
page fault could replace a valid SPTE with an MMIO SPTE.  The legacy
MMU handles such a scenario cleanly, but the TDP MMU assumes such
behavior is impossible (see the BUG() in __handle_changed_spte()).
There's really no good reason why the legacy MMU should allow such a
scenario, and closing this hole allows for additional cleanups.
