[PATCH v3 11/12] x86/virt/tdx: Allow SEAMCALL to handle #UD and #GP

From: Kai Huang
Date: Wed Jul 26 2023 - 07:27:33 EST


TDX memory has integrity and confidentiality protections. Violations of
this integrity protection are supposed to only affect TDX operations and
are never supposed to affect the host kernel itself. In other words,
the host kernel should never, itself, see machine checks induced by the
TDX integrity hardware.

Alas, the first few generations of TDX hardware have an erratum. A
partial write to a TDX private memory cacheline will silently "poison"
the line. Subsequent reads will consume the poison and generate a
machine check. According to the TDX hardware spec, neither of these
things should have happened.

On the platform with this erratum, it would be nice if the #MC handler
could print additional information to show the #MC was TDX private
memory error due to possible kernel bug.

To do that, the machine check handler needs to use SEAMCALL to query
page type of the error memory from the TDX module, because there's no
existing infrastructure to track TDX private pages.

SEAMCALL instruction causes #UD if CPU isn't in VMX operation. In #MC
handler, it is legal that CPU isn't in VMX operation when making this
SEAMCALL. Extend the TDX_MODULE_CALL macro to handle #UD so the
SEAMCALL can return error code instead of Oops in the #MC handler.
Opportunistically handles #GP too since they share the same code.

A bonus is when kernel mistakenly calls SEAMCALL when CPU isn't in VMX
operation, or when TDX isn't enabled by the BIOS, or when the BIOS is
buggy, the kernel can get a nicer error message rather than a less
understandable Oops.

This is basically based on Peter's code.

v2 -> v3:
- Added more material to the changelog to explain the TDX erratum
(hoping it can be merged together with this series).
- Changed to use %rdi to hold $TDX_SW_ERROR instead of %r12 as the
latter is callee-saved.

v1 -> v2:
- Skip saving output registers when SEAMCALL #UD/#GP
