kvm: x86: replace kvm_spec_ctrl_test_value with runtime test on the host
To avoid complex and in some cases incorrect logic in
kvm_spec_ctrl_test_value, just try the guest's given value on the host
processor instead, and if it doesn't #GP, allow the guest to set it.
One such case is when host CPU supports STIBP mitigation
but doesn't support IBRS (as is the case with some Zen2 AMD cpus),
and in this case we were giving guest #GP when it tried to use STIBP
The reason why can can do the host test is that IA32_SPEC_CTRL msr is
passed to the guest, after the guest sets it to a non zero value
for the first time (due to performance reasons),
and as as result of this, it is pointless to emulate #GP condition on
this first access, in a different way than what the host CPU does.
This is based on a patch from Sean Christopherson, who suggested this idea.

[Bug 1915063] Re: Windows 10 wil not install using qemu-system-x86_64
Thanks @Babu for the clarifications! I really hope that the qemu patch makes it in v6.0 - then I can better consider picking it up as backport for qemu (already have a bug about that in bug 1921754 - therefore I'm setting the qemu task here as invalid) The last step I can provide for the kernel bug that this one here is (before the rest of the work is with the kernel Team) is to verify/falsify if that also affects the non-oem linux-generic kernel. There the latest was 5.4.0.71.74 from focal-proposed and the latest already released one is 5.4.0.70.73. 5.4.0.70.73 - failing 5.4.0.71.74 - failing So while the almost-released oem kernel based on 5.10 will cover this - the patch should indeed also be backported to linux-generic and all the other flavours - otherwise Windows (and potentially more) will no more be usable as KVM guest on such Chips (threadrippers, but maybe more AMD chips that are not yet known as well) ** Changed in: qemu (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1915063 Title: Windows 10 wil not install using qemu-system-x86_64 Status in QEMU: New Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in linux-oem-5.10 package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in linux-oem-5.6 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in qemu package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Steps to reproduce install virt-manager and ovmf if nopt already there copy windows and virtio iso files to /var/lib/libvirt/images Use virt-manager from local machine to create your VMs with the disk, CPUs and memory required Select customize configuration then select OVMF(UEFI) instead of seabios set first CDROM to the windows installation iso (enable in boot options) add a second CDROM and load with the virtio iso change spice display to VNC Always get a security error from windows and it fails to launch the installer (works on RHEL and Fedora) I tried updating the qemu version from Focals 4.2 to Groovy 5.0 which was of no help --- ProblemType: Bug ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu27.14 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: skip CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME DistributionChannelDescriptor: # This is the distribution channel descriptor for the OEM CDs # For more information see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistributionChannelDescriptor canonical-oem-sutton-focal-amd64-20201030-422+pc-sutton-bachman-focal-amd64+X00 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04 InstallationDate: Installed on 2021-01-20 (19 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 20.04 "Focal" - Build amd64 LIVE Binary 20201030-14:39 MachineType: LENOVO 30E102Z NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_modeset nvidia Package: linux (not installed) ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm-256color PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR= LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcFB: 0 EFI VGA ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-5.6.0-1042-oem root=UUID=389cd165-fc52-4814-b837-a1090b9c2387 ro locale=en_US quiet splash vt.handoff=7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.6.0-1042.46-oem 5.6.19 RelatedPackageVersions: linux-restricted-modules-5.6.0-1042-oem N/A linux-backports-modules-5.6.0-1042-oem N/A linux-firmware 1.187.8 RfKill: Tags: focal Uname: Linux 5.6.0-1042-oem x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip docker kvm libvirt lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo _MarkForUpload: True dmi.bios.date: 07/29/2020 dmi.bios.vendor: LENOVO dmi.bios.version: S07KT08A dmi.board.name: 1046 dmi.board.vendor: LENOVO dmi.board.version: Not Defined dmi.chassis.type: 3 dmi.chassis.vendor: LENOVO dmi.chassis.version: None dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnLENOVO:bvrS07KT08A:bd07/29/2020:svnLENOVO:pn30E102Z:pvrThinkStationP620:rvnLENOVO:rn1046:rvrNotDefined:cvnLENOVO:ct3:cvrNone: dmi.product.family: INVALID dmi.product.name: 30E102Z dmi.product.sku: LENOVO_MT_30E1_BU_Think_FM_ThinkStation P620 dmi.product.version: ThinkStation P620 dmi.sys.vendor: LENOVO To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1915063/+subscriptions
[Bug 1915063] Re: Windows 10 wil not install using qemu-system-x86_64
David used "5.6.0-1042.46-oem", the closest I had was "5.6.0-1052-oem" so I tried that one. With that my win10 install immediately crashed into the reported issue. So to summarize: 1. I can reproduce it 2. Chances are high that it is fixed by kernel commit 841c2be0 "kvm: x86: replace kvm_spec_ctrl_test_value with runtime test on the host" 3. there are some qemu changes which might be related, but we need Babu to reply about if/how those are related I need to get myself updated on Ubuntu oem kernels. If there is a 5.6 series that is supposed to work on that, then this patch needs to be backported. But if OTOH it is a valid upgrade path that you'll get the 5.10.0-1020-oem that I had or later as part of your 20.04 OEM then that "is the fix" for you @David. ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: linux-oem-5.6 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: linux-oem-5.10 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: linux-oem-5.10 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Released ** Changed in: linux-oem-5.6 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1915063 Title: Windows 10 wil not install using qemu-system-x86_64 Status in QEMU: New Status in linux package in Ubuntu: New Status in linux-oem-5.10 package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in linux-oem-5.6 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in qemu package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Steps to reproduce install virt-manager and ovmf if nopt already there copy windows and virtio iso files to /var/lib/libvirt/images Use virt-manager from local machine to create your VMs with the disk, CPUs and memory required Select customize configuration then select OVMF(UEFI) instead of seabios set first CDROM to the windows installation iso (enable in boot options) add a second CDROM and load with the virtio iso change spice display to VNC Always get a security error from windows and it fails to launch the installer (works on RHEL and Fedora) I tried updating the qemu version from Focals 4.2 to Groovy 5.0 which was of no help --- ProblemType: Bug ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu27.14 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: skip CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME DistributionChannelDescriptor: # This is the distribution channel descriptor for the OEM CDs # For more information see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistributionChannelDescriptor canonical-oem-sutton-focal-amd64-20201030-422+pc-sutton-bachman-focal-amd64+X00 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04 InstallationDate: Installed on 2021-01-20 (19 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 20.04 "Focal" - Build amd64 LIVE Binary 20201030-14:39 MachineType: LENOVO 30E102Z NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_modeset nvidia Package: linux (not installed) ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm-256color PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR= LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcFB: 0 EFI VGA ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-5.6.0-1042-oem root=UUID=389cd165-fc52-4814-b837-a1090b9c2387 ro locale=en_US quiet splash vt.handoff=7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.6.0-1042.46-oem 5.6.19 RelatedPackageVersions: linux-restricted-modules-5.6.0-1042-oem N/A linux-backports-modules-5.6.0-1042-oem N/A linux-firmware 1.187.8 RfKill: Tags: focal Uname: Linux 5.6.0-1042-oem x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip docker kvm libvirt lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo _MarkForUpload: True dmi.bios.date: 07/29/2020 dmi.bios.vendor: LENOVO dmi.bios.version: S07KT08A dmi.board.name: 1046 dmi.board.vendor: LENOVO dmi.board.version: Not Defined dmi.chassis.type: 3 dmi.chassis.vendor: LENOVO dmi.chassis.version: None dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnLENOVO:bvrS07KT08A:bd07/29/2020:svnLENOVO:pn30E102Z:pvrThinkStationP620:rvnLENOVO:rn1046:rvrNotDefined:cvnLENOVO:ct3:cvrNone: dmi.product.family: INVALID dmi.product.name: 30E102Z dmi.product.sku: LENOVO_MT_30E1_BU_Think_FM_ThinkStation P620 dmi.product.version: ThinkStation P620 dmi.sys.vendor: LENOVO To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1915063/+subscriptions

[Bug 1915063] Re: Windows 10 wil not install using qemu-system-x86_64
Finally I'm able to test on a Threadripper myself now. Note: In regard to the commit that Babu identified - I'm on kernel 5.10.0-1020-oem so that patch would be applied already. I need to find an older kernel to retry with that as well (on that new kernel) I did a full Win10 install and it worked fine for me. In regard to CPU types (for comparison) I got qemu 1:4.2-3ubuntu6.15 / libvirt 6.0.0-0ubuntu8.8: EPYC-Rome AMD With a more recent qemu/libvirt it isn't much different for this chip (there recently were some Milan changes, but those seem not to matter for this chip). qemu 1:5.2+dfsg-9ubuntu1 / libvirt 7.0.0-2ubuntu1 EPYC-Rome AMD I wasn't able to crash this setup with an old (18.04) nor a new 21.04) Ubuntu guest. Installing Win10 worked fine for a while and didn't break as reported.

Thanks Babu/Igor for chiming in! @Babu That exposed STIBP but not IBRS - isn't that what you tried to solve (for userspace) in qemu via a v2 for the Rome chips? => https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2021-03/msg01020.html I was recently pinging that, as it wasn't merged into the qemu 6.0-rc Do you have any more insight why this is held back still? If I might ask - how does the kernel fix you referenced interact with this proposed qemu change? Assumptions (please correct me): 1. with the qemu change and using that Rome-v2 it would ask to expose both features and no more crash (even on unfixed kernels) 2. with the kernel fix it will no more crash, even with an unfixed qemu? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1915063 Title: Windows 10 wil not install using qemu-system-x86_64 Status in QEMU: New Status in qemu package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Steps to reproduce install virt-manager and ovmf if nopt already there copy windows and virtio iso files to /var/lib/libvirt/images Use virt-manager from local machine to create your VMs with the disk, CPUs and memory required Select customize configuration then select OVMF(UEFI) instead of seabios set first CDROM to the windows installation iso (enable in boot options) add a second CDROM and load with the virtio iso change spice display to VNC Always get a security error from windows and it fails to launch the installer (works on RHEL and Fedora) I tried updating the qemu version from Focals 4.2 to Groovy 5.0 which was of no help --- ProblemType: Bug ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu27.14 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: skip CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME DistributionChannelDescriptor: # This is the distribution channel descriptor for the OEM CDs # For more information see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistributionChannelDescriptor canonical-oem-sutton-focal-amd64-20201030-422+pc-sutton-bachman-focal-amd64+X00 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04 InstallationDate: Installed on 2021-01-20 (19 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 20.04 "Focal" - Build amd64 LIVE Binary 20201030-14:39 MachineType: LENOVO 30E102Z NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_modeset nvidia Package: linux (not installed) ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm-256color PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR= LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcFB: 0 EFI VGA ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-5.6.0-1042-oem root=UUID=389cd165-fc52-4814-b837-a1090b9c2387 ro locale=en_US quiet splash vt.handoff=7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.6.0-1042.46-oem 5.6.19 RelatedPackageVersions: linux-restricted-modules-5.6.0-1042-oem N/A linux-backports-modules-5.6.0-1042-oem N/A linux-firmware 1.187.8 RfKill: Tags: focal Uname: Linux 5.6.0-1042-oem x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip docker kvm libvirt lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo _MarkForUpload: True dmi.bios.date: 07/29/2020 dmi.bios.vendor: LENOVO dmi.bios.version: S07KT08A dmi.board.name: 1046 dmi.board.vendor: LENOVO dmi.board.version: Not Defined dmi.chassis.type: 3 dmi.chassis.vendor: LENOVO dmi.chassis.version: None dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnLENOVO:bvrS07KT08A:bd07/29/2020:svnLENOVO:pn30E102Z:pvrThinkStationP620:rvnLENOVO:rn1046:rvrNotDefined:cvnLENOVO:ct3:cvrNone: dmi.product.family: INVALID dmi.product.name: 30E102Z dmi.product.sku: LENOVO_MT_30E1_BU_Think_FM_ThinkStation P620 dmi.product.version: ThinkStation P620 dmi.sys.vendor: LENOVO To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1915063/+subscriptions

Ok, so you should be able to drop these lines one by one: If that does not yet make it work, add those one by one (removing the features of the named type) Eventually I'd hope you identify one feature (re add everything but this to verify) that breaks it.

That is awesome David, qemu64 is like a very low common denominator with only very basic CPU features. While "copy host" means "enable all you can". We can surely work with that a bit, but until I get access to the same HW I need you to do it. If you run in a console `$virsh domcapabilities` it will spew some XML at you. One of the sections will be for "host-model". In my case that looks like Skylake-Client-IBRS Intel ... That means a names CPU type (the one that is closest to what you have) and some feature additionally enabled/disabled. If you could please post the full output you have, that can be useful. >From there you could go two steps. 1. as you see in my example it will list some cpu features on top of the named type. If you remove them one by one you might be able to identify the single-cpu featute that breaks in your case. 2. The named CPU that you have also has a representation, it can be found in /usr/share/libvirt/cpu_map... That ill list all the CPU features that make up the named type.

[Bug 1915063] Re: Windows 10 wil not install using qemu-system-x86_64
Thanks David, I have no threadripper around atm, I think I can next week get hands on an EPYC Rome, but that isn't 100% the same. But gladly you tried this on the latest qemu 5.2 and since it is failing there as well it might be worth to also report it upstream. That is a great community which might have ran things on a threadripper already and be able to point us to a qemu/kernel fix - or at least an existing discussions abut it. For now I'm adding a qemu task here which will mirror this case to the mailing list. ** Also affects: qemu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1915063 Title: Windows 10 wil not install using qemu-system-x86_64 Status in QEMU: New Status in qemu package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Steps to reproduce install virt-manager and ovmf if nopt already there copy windows and virtio iso files to /var/lib/libvirt/images Use virt-manager from local machine to create your VMs with the disk, CPUs and memory required Select customize configuration then select OVMF(UEFI) instead of seabios set first CDROM to the windows installation iso (enable in boot options) add a second CDROM and load with the virtio iso change spice display to VNC Always get a security error from windows and it fails to launch the installer (works on RHEL and Fedora) I tried updating the qemu version from Focals 4.2 to Groovy 5.0 which was of no help --- ProblemType: Bug ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu27.14 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: skip CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME DistributionChannelDescriptor: # This is the distribution channel descriptor for the OEM CDs # For more information see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistributionChannelDescriptor canonical-oem-sutton-focal-amd64-20201030-422+pc-sutton-bachman-focal-amd64+X00 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04 InstallationDate: Installed on 2021-01-20 (19 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 20.04 "Focal" - Build amd64 LIVE Binary 20201030-14:39 MachineType: LENOVO 30E102Z NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_modeset nvidia Package: linux (not installed) ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm-256color PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR= LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcFB: 0 EFI VGA ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-5.6.0-1042-oem root=UUID=389cd165-fc52-4814-b837-a1090b9c2387 ro locale=en_US quiet splash vt.handoff=7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.6.0-1042.46-oem 5.6.19 RelatedPackageVersions: linux-restricted-modules-5.6.0-1042-oem N/A linux-backports-modules-5.6.0-1042-oem N/A linux-firmware 1.187.8 RfKill: Tags: focal Uname: Linux 5.6.0-1042-oem x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip docker kvm libvirt lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo _MarkForUpload: True dmi.bios.date: 07/29/2020 dmi.bios.vendor: LENOVO dmi.bios.version: S07KT08A dmi.board.name: 1046 dmi.board.vendor: LENOVO dmi.board.version: Not Defined dmi.chassis.type: 3 dmi.chassis.vendor: LENOVO dmi.chassis.version: None dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnLENOVO:bvrS07KT08A:bd07/29/2020:svnLENOVO:pn30E102Z:pvrThinkStationP620:rvnLENOVO:rn1046:rvrNotDefined:cvnLENOVO:ct3:cvrNone: dmi.product.family: INVALID dmi.product.name: 30E102Z dmi.product.sku: LENOVO_MT_30E1_BU_Think_FM_ThinkStation P620 dmi.product.version: ThinkStation P620 dmi.sys.vendor: LENOVO To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1915063/+subscriptions
