Re: [Xen-devel] HVMOP_altp2m_vcpu_enable_notify code example usage

2016-08-22 Thread Dmitry Rockosov
Tamas,

My experiment is using the same HVMOP - HVMOP_get_param.
Usermode code is using it from
https://xenbits.xen.org/gitweb/?p=xen.git;a=blob;f=xen/include/public/hvm/hvm_op.h;hb=2a99aa99fc84a45f505f84802af56b006d14c52e
Kernelmode is using it from
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/include/xen/interface/hvm/hvm_op.h?v=3.16#L27

One difference I see, in usermode we are allocating buffer with
DECLARE_HYPERCALL_BUFFER in CPL3 space, in kernelmode it's made in CPL0
space, however privcmd IOCTL handler does copy_from_user call for argument
buffer... I'm very confused, why it happens :-(

Best Regards,
Rockosov Dmitry

It's not about the guest's CPL - all hypercalls are issued ultimately
from kernelmode anyway - but depending on which HVMOP the guest issues
it can get treated differently by Xen. You can follow the path from
here: 
https://xenbits.xen.org/gitweb/?p=xen.git;a=blob;f=xen/arch/x86/hvm/hvm.c;h=0180f26b56b75c08c8c53b58a599de6085949bce;hb=HEAD#l5510.
I'm not sure which HVMOPs are allowed by default to be executed by the
guest itself.

Tamas, what do you think, why the same hypercall operations (get_param) are
executed by Xen differently? Does Xen know anything about caller domU CPL:
usermode or kernelmode?

Thank you for answers!

Not sure about HVMOP_get_param but AFAIK for
HVMOP_altp2m_vcpu_enable_notify to work you would have to create the
domain with altp2mhvm=1 enabled, then also issue the required commands
from dom0 to enable it (xc_altp2m_set_domain_state) and also perhaps
create a couple altp2m views.

The problem is in hypervisor checking definitely. I deeper debugged the
code, I met vmcall instruction execution. This means EFAULT is coming from
hypervisor.

Re: [Xen-devel] HVMOP_altp2m_vcpu_enable_notify code example usage

2016-08-22 Thread Dmitry Rockosov
Hello Tamas,

Thank you for the answer!

I installed the same xen source code (4.7.0) as on dom0 to domU, built
dist-tools, installed xen-tools, updated rc.d configuration and rebooted.
IOCTL channel to privcmd driver is working fine, but all requests to
hypervisor like hvm_get_param, translate_foreign_address,
altp2m_vcpu_enable_notify return EFAULT errno (Bad access).

Just for experiment I wrote below code in usermode:
===
...
rc = xc_hvm_param_get(xch, DOMID_SELF, HVM_PARAM_CONSOLE_PFN, );
if (rc < 0) {
PERROR("Fail to get CONSOLE PFN HVM PARAM\n");
goto exit;
}
DPRINTF("CONSOLE PFN == %llx", (unsigned long long)value);
...
===

and below code in kernelmode:
===
...
printk(KERN_INFO "We are in Xen domain HVM = %d\n", xen_hvm_domain());
err = hvm_get_parameter(HVM_PARAM_CONSOLE_PFN, );
printk(KERN_INFO "err = %d\n", err);
printk(KERN_INFO "CONSOLE PFN = %llx\n", value);
...
===

In the usermode I got an error:
===
Fail to get CONSOLE PFN HVM PARAM
: Bad address
===

In the kernelmode code executed fine:
===
[23261.230188] We are in Xen domain HVM = 1
[23261.307840] err = 0
[23261.352587] CONSOLE PFN = fefff
===

Looks like usermode wrappers don't support many requests to hypervisor,
right?

Hi Dmitry,
as long as you are testing with a HVM Linux guest you should be able
to just compile the Xen tools in the guest and then use libxc from
within the guest to issue that hypercall via
xc_altp2m_set_vcpu_enable_notify. You will need to load a couple Xen
related kernel-modules for it to work (like xen-privcmd). Let us know
if you got it working!

Cheers,
Tamas

[Xen-devel] HVMOP_altp2m_vcpu_enable_notify code example usage

2016-08-19 Thread Dmitry Rockosov
Hello Xen Team!

Does anybody have any code examples of HVMOP_altp2m_vcpu_enable_notify?

I want to fully test #VE, VMFUNC and EPTP Switching VM Function 0 in Xen,
but doesn't have any documentations/examples for it.
I tried xen-access test from tools/tests/xen-access, but looks like it
doesn't use VMFUNC and #VE, it simply changes VMCS entries with vmwrite,
w/o VMFUNC 0 (EPTP Switching).

Thanks in advance!

Best Regards,
Rockosov Dmitry
