Allow KVM_ENABLE_CAPABILITY(KVM_CAP_X86_APIC_BUS_CYCLES_NS) to set the frequency in nanoseconds. When using this capability, the user space VMM should configure CPUID leaf 0x15 to advertise the frequency. Description ----------- Vishal reported [1] that the TDX guest kernel expects a 25MHz APIC bus frequency but ends up getting interrupts at a significantly higher rate. The TDX architecture hard-codes the core crystal clock frequency to 25MHz and mandates exposing it via CPUID leaf 0x15. The TDX architecture does not allow the VMM to override the value. In addition, per Intel SDM: "The APIC timer frequency will be the processor’s bus clock or core crystal clock frequency (when TSC/core crystal clock ratio is enumerated in CPUID leaf 0x15) divided by the value specified in the divide configuration register." The resulting 25MHz APIC bus frequency conflicts with the KVM hardcoded APIC bus frequency of 1GHz. The KVM doesn't enumerate CPUID leaf 0x15 to the guest unless the user space VMM sets it using KVM_SET_CPUID. If the CPUID leaf 0x15 is enumerated, the guest kernel uses it as the APIC bus frequency. If not, the guest kernel measures the frequency based on other known timers like the ACPI timer or the legacy PIT. As reported in [1] the TDX guest kernel expects a 25MHz timer frequency but gets timer interrupt more frequently due to the 1GHz frequency used by KVM. To ensure that the guest doesn't have a conflicting view of the APIC bus frequency, allow the userspace to tell KVM to use the same frequency that TDX mandates instead of the default 1Ghz. There are several options to address this: 1. Make the KVM able to configure APIC bus frequency (this series). Pro: It resembles the existing hardware. The recent Intel CPUs adopts 25MHz. Con: Require the VMM to emulate the APIC timer at 25MHz. 2. Make the TDX architecture enumerate CPUID leaf 0x15 to configurable frequency or not enumerate it. Pro: Any APIC bus frequency is allowed. Con: Deviates from TDX architecture. 3. Make the TDX guest kernel use 1GHz when it's running on KVM. Con: The kernel ignores CPUID leaf 0x15. 4. Change CPUID leaf 0x15 under TDX to report the crystal clock frequency as 1 GHz. Pro: This has been the virtual APIC frequency for KVM guests for 13 years. Pro: This requires changing only one hard-coded constant in TDX. Con: It doesn't work with other VMMs as TDX isn't specific to KVM. Con: Core crystal clock frequency is also used to calculate TSC frequency. Con: If it is configured to value different from hardware, it will break the correctness of INTEL-PT Mini Time Count (MTC) packets in TDs. Testing ------- Tested on non-TDX host using included kselftest. Host running kernel with this series applied to "next" branch of https://github.com/kvm-x86/linux.git Tested on TDX host and TD using a modified version of x86/apic.c:test_apic_timer_one_shot() available from https://github.com/intel/kvm-unit-tests-tdx/blob/tdx/x86/apic.c. Host running TDX KVM development patches and QEMU with corresponding TDX changes. The test needed to be modified to (a) stop any lingering timers before the test starts, and (b) use CPUID 0x15 in TDX to accurately determine the TSC and APIC frequencies instead of making 1GHz assumption and use similar check as the kselftest test introduced in this series (while increasing the amount with which the frequency is allowed to deviate by 1%). The core changes made to x86/apic.c:test_apic_timer_one_shot() for this testing are shown below for reference. Work is in progress to upstream these modifications. @@ -477,11 +478,29 @@ static void lvtt_handler(isr_regs_t *regs) static void test_apic_timer_one_shot(void) { - uint64_t tsc1, tsc2; static const uint32_t interval = 0x10000; + uint64_t measured_apic_freq, tsc2, tsc1; + uint32_t tsc_freq = 0, apic_freq = 0; + struct cpuid cpuid_tsc = {}; #define APIC_LVT_TIMER_VECTOR (0xee) + /* + * CPUID 0x15 is not available in VMX, can use it to obtain + * TSC and APIC frequency for accurate testing + */ + if (is_tdx_guest()) { + cpuid_tsc = raw_cpuid(0x15, 0); + tsc_freq = cpuid_tsc.c * cpuid_tsc.b / cpuid_tsc.a; + apic_freq = cpuid_tsc.c; + } + /* + stop already fired local timer + the test case can be negative failure if the timer fired + after installed lvtt_handler but *before* + write to TIMICT again. + */ + apic_write(APIC_TMICT, 0); handle_irq(APIC_LVT_TIMER_VECTOR, lvtt_handler); /* One shot mode */ @@ -503,8 +522,16 @@ static void test_apic_timer_one_shot(void) * cases, the following should satisfy on all modern * processors. */ - report((lvtt_counter == 1) && (tsc2 - tsc1 >= interval), - "APIC LVT timer one shot"); + if (is_tdx_guest()) { + measured_apic_freq = interval * (tsc_freq / (tsc2 - tsc1)); + report((lvtt_counter == 1) && + (measured_apic_freq < apic_freq * 102 / 100) && + (measured_apic_freq > apic_freq * 98 / 100), + "APIC LVT timer one shot"); + } else { + report((lvtt_counter == 1) && (tsc2 - tsc1 >= interval), + "APIC LVT timer one shot"); + } } [1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20231006011255.4163884-1-vannapurve@google.com/ Isaku Yamahata (1): KVM: selftests: Add test for configure of x86 APIC bus frequency Reinette Chatre (1): KVM: selftests: Add x86_64 guest udelay() utility tools/testing/selftests/kvm/Makefile | 1 + .../selftests/kvm/include/x86_64/apic.h | 8 + .../selftests/kvm/include/x86_64/processor.h | 17 ++ .../selftests/kvm/lib/x86_64/processor.c | 11 + .../kvm/x86_64/apic_bus_clock_test.c | 202 ++++++++++++++++++ 5 files changed, 239 insertions(+) create mode 100644 tools/testing/selftests/kvm/x86_64/apic_bus_clock_test.c base-commit: e4e9e1067138e5620cf0500c3e5f6ebfb9d322c8
