Subject: [PATCH v2] KVM: selftests: Check result in hyperv_features.c test only for successful hypercalls

Commit cc5851c6be86 ("KVM: selftests: Use exception fixup for #UD/#GP
Hyper-V MSR/hcall tests") introduced a wrong guest assert in guest_hcall().
It is not checking the successful hypercall results and only checks the result
when a fault happens.

GUEST_ASSERT_2(!hcall->ud_expected || res == hcall->expect,
hcall->expect, res);

Correct the assertion by only checking results of the successful
hypercalls.

This issue was observed when this test started failing after building it
in Clang. Above guest assert statement fails because "res" is not equal
to "hcall->expect" when "hcall->ud_expected" is true. "res" gets some
garbage value in Clang from the RAX register. In GCC, RAX is 0 because
it using RAX for @output_address in the asm statement and resetting it
to 0 before using it as output operand in the same asm statement. Clang
is not using RAX for @output_address.

Load RAX with some default input value so that the compiler cannot
modify it or use it for anything else. This makes sure that KVM is
correctly clearing up return value on successful hypercall and compiler cannot
generate any false positive.

Jim's Reviewed-by is only for the code change and not shortlog message
of v1. Also, there is one change in asm which was not present in v1 and
not reviewed by Jim. But I am writing his name here so that it is not missed
when patch is merged.

v2:
- Updated the shortlog message.
- Using RAX register in hypercall asm as input operand also and
initializing it with -EFAULT

And this immediately discovers a problem in the test!

$ ./x86_64/hyperv_features
Testing access to Hyper-V specific MSRs
Testing access to Hyper-V hypercalls
==== Test Assertion Failure ====
x86_64/hyperv_features.c:622: false

Failed guest assert: res == hcall->expect at x86_64/hyperv_features.c:89
arg1 = 2, arg2 = 3

The root cause is: we're trying to test an invalid hypercall code but we
set 'control' wrong, i.e.:

hcall->control = 0xdeadbeef;
hcall->expect = HV_STATUS_INVALID_HYPERCALL_CODE;

as '0xdeadbeef' contains reserved bits 27 through 31 and we're getting
HV_STATUS_INVALID_HYPERCALL_INPUT instead.

Could you please include the attached patch to your series? Thanks a bunch!

Premature send :-)

What I was going to say...

The bug Vitaly encountered is exactly why upstream process _strongly_ prefers
splitting patches by logical changes, even when the changes are related or tiny.
Bundling the fix for the egregious bug with the enhancement makes it unnecessarily
difficult to grab _just_ the fix. In this case, Vitaly was on top of things and
there was minimal fallout, but imagine if the fix was for KVM proper and needed to
be backported. Some unsuspecting user would grab the "fix", apply it to their
kernel, and suddenly be presented with previously unseen failures.

Tweaked the shortlog to make it a wee bit shorter:

Wrap changelogs at ~75 chars. It's ok to go over for things like stack traces
and Fixes:, where the format of the text is more important than the line length.
But for "just words", stay under 75 chars.

Try to avoid pronouns as they are often ambiguous, and even when they're not, using
pronouns can sometimes require more effort from the readers, e.g. might require the
reader to "jump back" in the sentence to understand what "it" means.

And for cases like this, RAX is one more char, so just type RAX.

This is "working as intended". When someone gives a conditional Reviewed-by,
the intent is very much that _if_ you make the requested changes in good faith,
then their review will be carried. In other words, not adding Jim's review
would be "wrong" from a certain perspective.

Heh, the fact that you felt compelled to write this is a very, very good indication
that this should be two patches.

I shortened this one too, 94 chars is a bit much :-)
