From cf1d88b36ba7e83bdaa50bccc4c47864e8f08cbe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Woodhouse Date: Thu, 3 Mar 2022 15:41:12 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] KVM: Remove dirty handling from gfn_to_pfn_cache completely It isn't OK to cache the dirty status of a page in internal structures for an indefinite period of time. Any time a vCPU exits the run loop to userspace might be its last; the VMM might do its final check of the dirty log, flush the last remaining dirty pages to the destination and complete a live migration. If we have internal 'dirty' state which doesn't get flushed until the vCPU is finally destroyed on the source after migration is complete, then we have lost data because that will escape the final copy. This problem already exists with the use of kvm_vcpu_unmap() to mark pages dirty in e.g. VMX nesting. Note that the actual Linux MM already considers the page to be dirty since we have a writeable mapping of it. This is just about the KVM dirty logging. For the nesting-style use cases (KVM_GUEST_USES_PFN) we will need to track which gfn_to_pfn_caches have been used and explicitly mark the corresponding pages dirty before returning to userspace. But we would have needed external tracking of that anyway, rather than walking the full list of GPCs to find those belonging to this vCPU which are dirty. So let's rely *solely* on that external tracking, and keep it simple rather than laying a tempting trap for callers to fall into.
