Subject: [PATCH v4 00/18] KVM nVHE Hypervisor stack unwinder

Hi all,

This is v4 of the series adding support for nVHE hypervisor stacktraces;
and is based on arm64 for-next/stacktrace.

Thanks all for your feedback on previous revisions. Mark Brown, I
appreciate your Reviewed-by on the v3, I have dropped the tags in this
new verision since I think the series has changed quite a bit.

The previous versions were posted at:
v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected]/
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected]/
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected]/

The main updates in this version are to address concerens from Marc on the
memory usage and reusing the common code by refactoring into a shared header.

Thanks,
Kalesh

============

KVM nVHE Stack unwinding.
===

nVHE has two modes of operation: protected (pKVM) and unprotected
(conventional nVHE). Depending on the mode, a slightly different approach
is used to dump the hyperviosr stacktrace but the core unwinding logic
remains the same.

Protected nVHE (pKVM) stacktraces
====

In protected nVHE mode, the host cannot directly access hypervisor memory.

The hypervisor stack unwinding happens in EL2 and is made accessible to
the host via a shared buffer. Symbolizing and printing the stacktrace
addresses is delegated to the host and happens in EL1.

Non-protected (Conventional) nVHE stacktraces
====

In non-protected mode, the host is able to directly access the hypervisor
stack pages.

The hypervisor stack unwinding and dumping of the stacktrace is performed
by the host in EL1, as this avoids the memory overhead of setting up
shared buffers between the host and hypervisor.

Resuing the Core Unwinding Logic
====

Since the hypervisor cannot link against the kernel code in proteced mode.
The common stack unwinding code is moved to a shared header to allow reuse
in the nVHE hypervisor.

Reducing the memory footprint
====

In this version the below steps were taken to reduce the memory usage of
nVHE stack unwinding:

1) The nVHE overflow stack is reduced from PAGE_SIZE to 4KB; benificial
for configurations with non 4KB pages (16KB or 64KB pages).
2) In protected nVHE mode (pKVM), the shared stacktrace buffers with the
host are reduced from PAGE_SIZE to the minimum size required.
3) In systems other than Android, conventional nVHE makes up the vast
majority of use case. So the pKVM stack tracing is disabled by default
(!CONFIG_PROTECTED_NVHE_STACKTRACE), which avoid the memory usage for
setting up shared buffers.
4) In non-protected nVHE mode (conventional nVHE), the stack unwinding
is done directly in EL1 by the host and no shared buffers with the
hyperviosr are needed.

Sample Output
====

The below shows an example output from a simple stack overflow test:

Subject: [PATCH v4 08/18] KVM: arm64: Add PROTECTED_NVHE_STACKTRACE Kconfig

This can be used to disable stacktrace for the protected KVM
nVHE hypervisor, in order to save on the associated memory usage.

This option is disabled by default, since protected KVM is not widely
used on platforms other than Android currently.

Subject: [PATCH v4 01/18] arm64: stacktrace: Add shared header for common stack unwinding code

In order to reuse the arm64 stack unwinding logic for the nVHE
hypervisor stack, move the common code to a shared header
(arch/arm64/include/asm/stacktrace/common.h).

The nVHE hypervisor cannot safely link against kernel code, so we
make use of the shared header to avoid duplicated logic later in
this series.

Subject: [PATCH v4 13/18] KVM: arm64: Prepare non-protected nVHE hypervisor stacktrace

In non-protected nVHE mode (non-pKVM) the host can directly access
hypervisor memory; and unwinding of the hypervisor stacktrace is
done from EL1 to save on memory for shared buffers.

To unwind the hypervisor stack from EL1 the host needs to know the
starting point for the unwind and information that will allow it to
translate hypervisor stack addresses to the corresponding kernel
addresses. This patch sets up this book keeping. It is made use of
later in the series.

Subject: [PATCH v4 18/18] KVM: arm64: Dump nVHE hypervisor stack on panic

On hyp_panic(), unwind and dump the nVHE hypervisor stack trace.
In protected nVHE mode, hypervisor stacktraces are only produced
if CONFIG_PROTECTED_NVHE_STACKTRACE is enabled.

Example backtrace:

Implements the common framework necessary for unwind() to work
for non-protected nVHE mode:
- on_accessible_stack()
- on_overflow_stack()
- unwind_next()

Non-protected nVHE unwind() is used to unwind and dump the hypervisor
stacktrace by the host in EL1

Subject: [PATCH v4 12/18] KVM: arm64: Save protected-nVHE (pKVM) hyp stacktrace

In protected nVHE mode, the host cannot access private owned hypervisor
memory. Also the hypervisor aims to remains simple to reduce the attack
surface and does not provide any printk support.

For the above reasons, the approach taken to provide hypervisor stacktraces
in protected mode is:
1) Unwind and save the hyp stack addresses in EL2 to a shared buffer
with the host (done in this patch).
2) Delegate the dumping and symbolization of the addresses to the
host in EL1 (later patch in the series).

Subject: [PATCH v4 14/18] KVM: arm64: Implement protected nVHE hyp stack unwinder

Implements the common framework necessary for unwind() to work in
the protected nVHE context:
- on_accessible_stack()
- on_overflow_stack()
- unwind_next()

Protected nVHE unwind() is used to unwind and save the hyp stack
addresses to the shared stacktrace buffer. The host reads the
entries in this buffer, symbolizes and dumps the stacktrace (later
patch in the series).

I tested an earlier version of this patch series, and it worked fine,
with symbolization. However, testing it now, both with nvhe and with
pkvm the symbolization isn't working for me. e.g.

[ 32.986706] kvm [251]: Protected nVHE HYP call trace:
[ 32.986796] kvm [251]: [<ffff800008f8b0e0>] 0xffff800008f8b0e0
[ 32.987391] kvm [251]: [<ffff800008f8b388>] 0xffff800008f8b388
[ 32.987493] kvm [251]: [<ffff800008f8d230>] 0xffff800008f8d230
[ 32.987591] kvm [251]: [<ffff800008f8d51c>] 0xffff800008f8d51c
[ 32.987695] kvm [251]: [<ffff800008f8c064>] 0xffff800008f8c064
[ 32.987803] kvm [251]: ---- End of Protected nVHE HYP call trace ----

CONFIG_PROTECTED_NVHE_STACKTRACE CONFIG_NVHE_EL2_DEBUG and
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF_TOOLCHAIN_DEFAULT are all enabled. Generating
a backtrace in the host I get proper symbolisation.

Is there anything else you'd like to know about my setup that would
help get to the bottom of this?

Thanks,
/fuad

Hi Fuad,

Thanks for reviewing it. Can you attach the .config when you have a
chance please? I will try reproducing it on my end.

My local config had CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE off. I have posted a fix for
the existing occurrences [1]. I'll address those for the unwinder in
the next version of this series.

A short description of what these helpers are supposed to do would
also be helpful.

Can we make this depend on NVHE_EL2_DEBUG instead? I'd like to keep
the disclosing of EL2 information in protected mode a strict debug
feature.

I don't get this path. This either represents the VHE hypervisor or
the kernel proper. Which one is it?

Huh. Be careful here. This function is only 'inline', which means it
may not be really inlined. We've had tons of similar issues like this
in the past, and although this will not break at runtime anymore, it
will definitely stop the kernel from linking.

I guess this is related to my comment in patch 9, but why does the end
happen at 2 * instead of just 1 * before the actual end? I guess
because it's inclusive. That said, a comment would be helpful.

Subject: Re: [PATCH v4 01/18] arm64: stacktrace: Add shared header for common stack unwinding code

Hi,

Can you please explain why you are targetting my @oracle.com email
address with this patch set?

This causes me problems as I use Outlook's Web interface for that
which doesn't appear to cope with the threading, and most certainly
is only capable of top-reply only which is against Linux kernel email
standards.

Thanks.

Hi Russell,

Sorry I wasn't aware of it (I got your oracle email from
get_maintainer script). Going forward I'll use the one you responded
from instead.

Thanks,

Oh, this is the very annoying behaviour of get_maintainer.pl default
mode to think that if someone touches a file, they're interested in
future changes to it. In this case, it's because we both touched
arch/arm64/include/asm/memory.h back in November 2021, and this
silly script thinks I'll still be interested.

b89ddf4cca43 arm64/bpf: Remove 128MB limit for BPF JIT programs

(The patch was originally developed for Oracle's UEK kernels, hence
why it's got my @oracle.com address, but was later merged upstream.
Interestingly, no one spotted that Alan Maguire's s-o-b should've
been on it, as he was involved in the submission path to mainline.)

This really deserves a comment here, as the one you currently
have is a bit misleading (and you probably want to move it
below the #else).

Hi Marc,

An earlier version was similar to what you propose. The unwinding
depended on NVHE_EL2_DEBUG and all unwinding was done from EL1 with
host stage 2 being disabled. The reason the design was changed is
because Android expressed the need for pKVM hyp stacktraces in
production environments. [1]

Hi Marc. This is run from kernel proper context. And it's the
unwinding for conventional nVHE (non-protected). The unwinding is done
from the host kernel in EL1.

The intention is to check that we can fit 2 entries (the stacktrace
entry and null entry). I think the "end" naming is a bit misleading.
Let me try to clarify it better in the next version.

Ahh, there are a few other always inline *unwind_init* functions that
use this. I'll update in the next version.

I think that's an Android-specific requirement that doesn't apply to
upstream. If Android wants to enable this in production (and
potentially leak details of the hypervisor address space), that's
Android's business, and they can carry a patch for that. Upstream
shouldn't have to cater for such a thing.

Thanks,

M.

Overall, the series looks better. I've pointed out a few things that
need changing, but my overall gripe is around the abuse the
stacktrace/nvhe.h as a dumping ground. A lot of the code there could
be pushed to handle_exit.c (or some other compilation unit).

I've pushed an example of a 10 minutes refactor in my tree
(kvm-arm64/nvhe-stacktrace), and I'm sure these are the lowest hanging
fruits.

Thanks,

M.

Hi Marc,

For android it's important to be able to debug issues from the field.
But I agree no need to subject upstream to the same requirements. I'll
guard this with the NVHE_EL2_DEBUG config in the next version.
