This patch series is ready to be merged via nvdimm tree
as discussed with Dan. We have ack/review on XFS, EXT4
device mapper & VIRTIO patches.
This version has fix for test bot build failure. Keeping
all the existing r-o-bs. Jakob CCed also tested the patch
series and confirmed the working of v9.
---
This patch series has implementation for "virtio pmem".
"virtio pmem" is fake persistent memory(nvdimm) in guest
which allows to bypass the guest page cache. This also
implements a VIRTIO based asynchronous flush mechanism.
Sharing guest kernel driver in this patchset with the
changes suggested in v4. Tested with Qemu side device
emulation [5] for virtio-pmem. Documented the impact of
possible page cache side channel attacks with suggested
countermeasures.
Details of project idea for 'virtio pmem' flushing interface
is shared [3] & [4].
Implementation is divided into two parts:
New virtio pmem guest driver and qemu code changes for new
virtio pmem paravirtualized device.
1. Guest virtio-pmem kernel driver
---------------------------------
- Reads persistent memory range from paravirt device and
registers with 'nvdimm_bus'.
- 'nvdimm/pmem' driver uses this information to allocate
persistent memory region and setup filesystem operations
to the allocated memory.
- virtio pmem driver implements asynchronous flushing
interface to flush from guest to host.
2. Qemu virtio-pmem device
---------------------------------
- Creates virtio pmem device and exposes a memory range to
KVM guest.
- At host side this is file backed memory which acts as
persistent memory.
- Qemu side flush uses aio thread pool API's and virtio
for asynchronous guest multi request handling.
Virtio-pmem security implications and countermeasures:
-----------------------------------------------------
In previous posting of kernel driver, there was discussion [7]
on possible implications of page cache side channel attacks with
virtio pmem. After thorough analysis of details of known side
channel attacks, below are the suggestions:
- Depends entirely on how host backing image file is mapped
into guest address space.
- virtio-pmem device emulation, by default shared mapping is used
to map host backing file. It is recommended to use separate
backing file at host side for every guest. This will prevent
any possibility of executing common code from multiple guests
and any chance of inferring guest local data based based on
execution time.
- If backing file is required to be shared among multiple guests
it is recommended to don't support host page cache eviction
commands from the guest driver. This will avoid any possibility
of inferring guest local data or host data from another guest.
- Proposed device specification [6] for virtio-pmem device with
details of possible security implications and suggested
countermeasures for device emulation.
Virtio-pmem errors handling:
----------------------------------------
Checked behaviour of virtio-pmem for below types of errors
Need suggestions on expected behaviour for handling these errors?
- Hardware Errors: Uncorrectable recoverable Errors:
a] virtio-pmem:
- As per current logic if error page belongs to Qemu process,
host MCE handler isolates(hwpoison) that page and send SIGBUS.
Qemu SIGBUS handler injects exception to KVM guest.
- KVM guest then isolates the page and send SIGBUS to guest
userspace process which has mapped the page.
b] Existing implementation for ACPI pmem driver:
- Handles such errors with MCE notifier and creates a list
of bad blocks. Read/direct access DAX operation return EIO
if accessed memory page fall in bad block list.
- It also starts backgound scrubbing.
- Similar functionality can be reused in virtio-pmem with MCE
notifier but without scrubbing(no ACPI/ARS)? Need inputs to
confirm if this behaviour is ok or needs any change?

This patch adds functionality to perform flush from guest
to host over VIRTIO. We are registering a callback based
on 'nd_region' type. virtio_pmem driver requires this special
flush function. For rest of the region types we are registering
existing flush function. Report error returned by host fsync
failure to userspace.

This patch adds 'DAXDEV_SYNC' flag which is set
for nd_region doing synchronous flush. This later
is used to disable MAP_SYNC functionality for
ext4 & xfs filesystem for devices don't support
synchronous flush.

2.20.1
This patch sets dax device 'DAXDEV_SYNC' flag if all the target
devices of device mapper support synchrononous DAX. If device
mapper consists of both synchronous and asynchronous dax devices,
we don't set 'DAXDEV_SYNC' flag.
'dm_table_supports_dax' is refactored to pass 'iterate_devices_fn'
as argument so that the callers can pass the appropriate functions.

2.20.1
This patch introduces 'daxdev_mapping_supported' helper
which checks if 'MAP_SYNC' is supported with filesystem
mapping. It also checks if corresponding dax_device is
synchronous. Virtio pmem device is asynchronous and
does not not support VM_SYNC.
