KVM: x86/mmu: Resolve nx_huge_pages when kvm.ko is loaded
Resolve nx_huge_pages to true/false when kvm.ko is loaded, leaving it as -1 is technically undefined behavior when its value is read out by param_get_bool(), as boolean values are supposed to be '0' or '1'. Alternatively, KVM could define a custom getter for the param, but the auto value doesn't depend on the vendor module in any way, and printing "auto" would be unnecessarily unfriendly to the user. In addition to fixing the undefined behavior, resolving the auto value also fixes the scenario where the auto value resolves to N and no vendor module is loaded. Previously, -1 would result in Y being printed even though KVM would ultimately disable the mitigation. Rename the existing MMU module init/exit helpers to clarify that they're invoked with respect to the vendor module, and add comments to document why KVM has two separate "module init" flows. ========================================================================= UBSAN: invalid-load in kernel/params.c:320:33 load of value 255 is not a valid value for type '_Bool' CPU: 6 PID: 892 Comm: tail Not tainted 5.17.0-rc3+ #799 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 0.0.0 02/06/2015 Call Trace: <TASK> dump_stack_lvl+0x34/0x44 ubsan_epilogue+0x5/0x40 __ubsan_handle_load_invalid_value.cold+0x43/0x48 param_get_bool.cold+0xf/0x14 param_attr_show+0x55/0x80 module_attr_show+0x1c/0x30 sysfs_kf_seq_show+0x93/0xc0 seq_read_iter+0x11c/0x450 new_sync_read+0x11b/0x1a0 vfs_read+0xf0/0x190 ksys_read+0x5f/0xe0 do_syscall_64+0x3b/0xc0 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae </TASK> ========================================================================= Fixes: b8e8c8303ff2 ("kvm: mmu: ITLB_MULTIHIT mitigation") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reported-by: Bruno Goncalves <bgoncalv@redhat.com> Reported-by: Jan Stancek <jstancek@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com> Message-Id: <20220331221359.3912754-1-seanjc@google.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
