Firstly we're trying to lookup the existing SPs that has shadowed this huge page in split way, with the access bits fetched from the shadow cache (so without hugepage nx effect). However could the pages be mapped with different permissions from the currently hugely mapped page? IIUC all these is for the fact that we can't allocate pte_list_desc and we want to make sure we won't make the pte list to be >1. But I also see that the pte_list check below... > + > + swap(split_sp, *spp); > + init_shadow_page(kvm, split_sp, slot, gfn, role); > + trace_kvm_mmu_get_page(split_sp, true); > + > + return split_sp; > +} > + > +static int kvm_mmu_split_huge_page(struct kvm *kvm, > + const struct kvm_memory_slot *slot, > + u64 *huge_sptep, struct kvm_mmu_page **spp, > + bool *flush) > + > +{ > + struct kvm_mmu_page *split_sp; > + u64 huge_spte, split_spte; > + int split_level, index; > + unsigned int access; > + u64 *split_sptep; > + gfn_t split_gfn; > + > + split_sp = kvm_mmu_get_sp_for_split(kvm, slot, huge_sptep, spp); > + if (!split_sp) > + return -EOPNOTSUPP; > + > + /* > + * Since we did not allocate pte_list_desc_structs for the split, we > + * cannot add a new parent SPTE to parent_ptes.

I'll stop here for now I guess.. Have you considered having rmap allocation ready altogether, rather than making this intermediate step but only add that later? Because all these look hackish to me..

The reasons I broke it up into the intermediate steps are: - At Google we only support up to including this patch. We don't handle the cases where the rmap or parent_ptes list need to grow. - It seemed like a good way to break up the support into smaller patches. But I think this backfired since the intermediate steps introduce their own complexity such as passing in NULL to __rmap_add(). > > Thanks, > > > + } > > + > > + /* > > + * Replace the huge spte with a pointer to the populated lower level > > + * page table.

Yeah this is tricky for sure. For direct shadow pages, sp->role.access is always the guest access permissions being shadowed (or ACC_ALL for situations where there is no shadowing, e.g. __direct_map() and the TDP MMU). That's why we use shadow translation cache to lookup up an existing SP or creating a new SP, rather than taking the access permissions from the huge SPTE itself (which may have KVM-specific policies applied such as HugePage NX, access tracking, etc.). In other words, we want to look up existing SPs in the same exact way that the fault handler looks them up. > However could the pages be mapped with > different permissions from the currently hugely mapped page? Yes, I think there can be some differences, such as: - The child SPTEs may have execute permission granted due to HugePage NX while the huge page does not. - The child SPTEs may be in a different access tracking state than the huge page. There may be others. But no matter what, the same differences are possible when we split a huge page during a fault, which leads me to conclude it is safe. > > IIUC all these is for the fact that we can't allocate pte_list_desc and we > want to make sure we won't make the pte list to be >1. > > But I also see that the pte_list check below... > > > + > > + swap(split_sp, *spp); > > + init_shadow_page(kvm, split_sp, slot, gfn, role); > > + trace_kvm_mmu_get_page(split_sp, true); > > + > > + return split_sp; > > +} > > + > > +static int kvm_mmu_split_huge_page(struct kvm *kvm, > > + const struct kvm_memory_slot *slot, > > + u64 *huge_sptep, struct kvm_mmu_page **spp, > > + bool *flush) > > + > > +{ > > + struct kvm_mmu_page *split_sp; > > + u64 huge_spte, split_spte; > > + int split_level, index; > > + unsigned int access; > > + u64 *split_sptep; > > + gfn_t split_gfn; > > + > > + split_sp = kvm_mmu_get_sp_for_split(kvm, slot, huge_sptep, spp); > > + if (!split_sp) > > + return -EOPNOTSUPP; > > + > > + /* > > + * Since we did not allocate pte_list_desc_structs for the split, we > > + * cannot add a new parent SPTE to parent_ptes.

I was confused because the previous version of this code checked if *spp is already set and, if so, skipped the allocation. But I accidentally introduced a memory leak here when I implemented Ben' suggestion to defer alloc_memory_for_split() to a subsequent commit.

Extend KVM's eager page splitting to also split huge pages that are mapped by the shadow MMU. Specifically, walk through the rmap splitting all 1GiB pages to 2MiB pages, and splitting all 2MiB pages to 4KiB pages. Splitting huge pages mapped by the shadow MMU requries dealing with some extra complexity beyond that of the TDP MMU: (1) The shadow MMU has a limit on the number of shadow pages that are allowed to be allocated. So, as a policy, Eager Page Splitting refuses to split if there are KVM_MIN_FREE_MMU_PAGES or fewer pages available. (2) Huge pages may be mapped by indirect shadow pages which have the possibility of being unsync. As a policy we opt not to split such pages as their translation may no longer be valid. (3) Splitting a huge page may end up re-using an existing lower level shadow page tables. This is unlike the TDP MMU which always allocates new shadow page tables when splitting. This commit does *not* handle such aliasing and opts not to split such huge pages. (4) When installing the lower level SPTEs, they must be added to the rmap which may require allocating additional pte_list_desc structs. This commit does *not* handle such cases and instead opts to leave such lower-level SPTEs non-present. In this situation TLBs must be flushed before dropping the MMU lock as a portion of the huge page region is being unmapped.
