Subject: [PATCH 02/16] KVM: SVM: Derive the plane limit from the immutable VM type
Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2026 14:28:57 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261111222911.477-3-dwmw2@infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261111222911.477-1-dwmw2@infradead.org>
From: David Woodhouse <dwmw@amazon.co.uk>
svm_max_planes() calls ____sev_snp_guest() without kvm->lock, from
KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION(KVM_CAP_PLANES). That races __sev_guest_init(),
which sets and rolls back sev->active/es_active/SNP_ACTIVE under
kvm->lock, and userspace can force the rollback (ASID exhaustion,
firmware init failure). It is exactly the rule
kvm_lockdep_assert_sev_lock_held() documents, dodged by using the
assertion-free helper. It also leaves KVM_CREATE_PLANE's pre-lock
bound check with a limit that can change under it.
Key SNP-ness off kvm->arch.vm_type == KVM_X86_SNP_VM instead, which is
fixed at VM creation. While there, tidy the max_planes plumbing:
- floor sev_snp_max_planes() at 1, so a host CPUID reporting zero
VMPLs cannot make the VM report no planes at all;
- drop the sev_nr_vcpu_planes() declaration, which has no definition
or caller;
- drop the !CONFIG_KVM_AMD_SEV sev_snp_max_planes() stub, dead since
its only caller sits under the same #ifdef (and its return type
disagreed with the declaration).
Fixes the unlocked SEV state check in "kvm: svm: Implement max_planes
x86 operation".
