Subject[PATCH V3 04/12] KVM: X86/MMU: Add local shadow pages
Date
From: Lai Jiangshan <jiangshan.ljs@antgroup.com>

Local shadow pages are shadow pages to hold PDPTEs for 32bit guest or
higher level shadow pages having children local shadow pages when
shadowing nested NPT for 32bit L1 in 64 bit L0.

Current code use mmu->pae_root, mmu->pml4_root, and mmu->pml5_root to
setup local root page. The initialization code is complex and the root
pages are not associated with struct kvm_mmu_page which causes the code
more complex.

Add kvm_mmu_alloc_local_shadow_page() and mmu_free_local_root_page() to
allocate and free local shadow pages and prepare for using local
shadow pages to replace current logic and share the most logic with
non-local shadow pages.

The code is not activated since using_local_root_page() is false in
the place where it is inserted.

+/*
+ * Local shadow pages are shadow pages to hold PDPTEs for 32bit guest or higher
+ * level shadow pages having children local shadow pages when shadowing nested
+ * NPT for 32bit L1 in 64 bit L0.
+ *
+ * Local shadow pages are often local shadow root pages (or local root pages for
+ * short) except when shadowing nested NPT for 32bit L1 in 64 bit L0 which has
+ * 2 or 3 levels of local shadow pages on top of non-local shadow pages.
+ *
+ * Local shadow pages are locally allocated. If the local shadow page's level
+ * is PT32E_ROOT_LEVEL, it will use the preallocated mmu->pae_root for its
+ * sp->spt. Because sp->spt may need to be put in the 32 bits CR3 (even in
+ * x86_64) or decrypted. Using the preallocated one to handle these
+ * requirements makes the allocation simpler.
+ *
+ * Local shadow pages are only visible to local VCPU except through
+ * sp->parent_ptes rmap from their children, so they are not in the
+ * kvm->arch.active_mmu_pages nor in the hash.
+ *
+ * And they are neither accounted nor write-protected since they don't shadow a
+ * guest page table.
+ *
+ * Because of above, local shadow pages can not be freed nor zapped like
+ * non-local shadow pages. They are freed directly when the local root page
+ * is freed, see mmu_free_local_root_page().
+ *
+ * Local root page can not be put on mmu->prev_roots because the comparison
+ * must use PDPTEs instead of CR3 and mmu->pae_root can not be shared for multi
+ * local root pages.
+ *
+ * Except above limitations, all the other abilities are the same as other
+ * shadow page, like link, parent rmap, sync, unsync etc.
+ *
+ * Local shadow pages can be obsoleted in a little different way other than
+ * the non-local shadow pages. When the obsoleting process is done, all the
+ * obsoleted non-local shadow pages are unlinked from the local shadow pages
+ * by the help of the sp->parent_ptes rmap and the local shadow pages become
+ * theoretically valid again except sp->mmu_valid_gen may be still outdated.
+ * If there is no other event to cause a VCPU to free the local root page and
+ * the VCPU is being preempted by the host during two obsoleting processes,
+ * sp->mmu_valid_gen might become valid again and the VCPU can reuse it when
+ * the VCPU is back. It is different from the non-local shadow pages which
+ * are always freed after obsoleted.
