Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86: Don't update RIP or do single-step on faulting emulation

Don't advance RIP or inject a single-step #DB if emulation signals a
fault. This logic applies to all state updates that are conditional on
clean retirement of the emulation instruction, e.g. updating RFLAGS was
previously handled by commit 38827dbd3fb85 ("KVM: x86: Do not update
EFLAGS on faulting emulation").

Not advancing RIP is likely a nop, i.e. ctxt->eip isn't updated with
ctxt->_eip until emulation "retires" anyways. Skipping #DB injection
fixes a bug reported by Andy Lutomirski where a #UD on SYSCALL due to
invalid state with RFLAGS.RF=1 would loop indefinitely due to emulation
overwriting the #UD with #DB and thus restarting the bad SYSCALL over
and over.

Note, this has minor conflict with my recent series to cleanup the
emulator return flows[*]. The end result should look something like:

if (!ctxt->have_exception ||
exception_type(ctxt->exception.vector) == EXCPT_TRAP) {
kvm_rip_write(vcpu, ctxt->eip);
if (r && ctxt->tf)
r = kvm_vcpu_do_singlestep(vcpu);
__kvm_set_rflags(vcpu, ctxt->eflags);
}

Hm, EXCPT_TRAP is either #OF, #BP, or another #DB, none of which we want
to override. The first two disable TF and the last one is the same as
its fault variant must take other path, so it works out in the end...

I've fixed the RF in commit message when applying, thanks.

We still seem to have at least a minor problem with single stepping:

SDM, Interrupt 1—Debug Exception (#DB):

The following items detail the treatment of debug exceptions on the
instruction boundary following execution of the MOV or the POP
instruction that loads the SS register:
• If EFLAGS.TF is 1, no single-step trap is generated.

I think a check for KVM_X86_SHADOW_INT_MOV_SS in
kvm_vcpu_do_singlestep() is missing.

NYC, but...

I don't think this check for "exception_type" is quite right. A
general detect fault (which can be synthesized by check_dr_read) is
mischaracterized by exception_type() as a trap. Or maybe I'm missing
something? (I often am.)

Pretty sure you're not missing anything.

And while we're poking holes in #DB emulation, int1/icebp isn't emulated
correctly as it should be reinjected with INTR_TYPE_PRIV_SW_EXCEPTION, not
as a INTR_TYPE_HARD_EXCEPTION. The CPU automically clears DR7.GD on #DB,
unless the #DB is due to int1...
