v2 cover iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Fix hitless STE update in nesting cases

Occasional C_BAD_STE errors were observed in nesting setups where a device attached to a nested bypass/identity domain enables PASID.

This occurred when the physical STE was updated from S2-only mode to S1+S2 nesting mode, but the update failed to use the hitless routine that it was supposed to use. Instead, it cleared STE.V bit to load the CD table, while the default substream was still actively performing DMA.

It was later found that the diff algorithm in arm_smmu_entry_qword_diff() enforced an additional critical word due to misaligned MEV and EATS fields between S2-only and S1+S2 modes.

Both fields are either well-managed or non-critical, so move them to the "ignored" list to relax the qword diff algorithm.

Additionally, add KUnit test coverage for these nesting STE cases.

This is on Github:
https://github.com/nicolinc/iommufd/commits/smmuv3_ste_fixes/

A host kernel must apply this to fix the bug.

Changelog
v2:
* Fix kunit tests

PATCH v2 1/4 iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Add ignored bits to fix STE update sequence

From: Jason Gunthorpe <[email protected]>

C_BAD_STE was observed when updating nested STE from an S1-bypass mode to an S1DSS-bypass mode. As both modes enabled S2, the used bit is slightly different than the normal S1-bypass and S1DSS-bypass modes. As a result, fields like MEV and EATS in S2's used list marked the word1 as a critical word that requested a STE.V=0. This breaks a hitless update.

However, both MEV and EATS aren't critical in terms of STE update. One controls the merge of the events and the other controls the ATS that is managed by the driver at the same time via pci_enable_ats().

Add an arm_smmu_get_ste_ignored() to allow STE update algorithm to ignore those fields, avoiding the STE update breakages.

Note that this change is required by both MEV and EATS fields, which were introduced in different kernel versions. So add this get_ignored() first. The MEV and EATS will be added in arm_smmu_get_ste_ignored() separately.

PATCH v2 2/4 iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Ignore STE MEV when computing the update sequence

In reply to Nicolin Chen

From: Jason Gunthorpe <[email protected]>

Nested CD tables set the MEV bit to try to reduce multi-fault spamming on the hypervisor. Since MEV is in STE word 1 this causes a breaking update sequence that is not required and impacts real workloads.

For the purposes of STE updates the value of MEV doesn't matter, if it is set/cleared early or late it just results in a change to the fault reports that must be supported by the kernel anyhow. The spec says:

Note: Software must expect, and be able to deal with, coalesced fault records even when MEV == 0.

So ignore MEV when computing the update sequence to avoid creating a breaking update.

PATCH v2 3/4 iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Ignore STE EATS when computing the update sequence

In reply to Nicolin Chen

From: Jason Gunthorpe <[email protected]>

If a VM wants to toggle EATS off at the same time as changing the CFG, the hypervisor will see EATS change to 0 and insert a V=0 breaking update into the STE even though the VM did not ask for that.

In bare metal, EATS is ignored by CFG=ABORT/BYPASS, which is why this does not cause a problem until we have nested where CFG is always a variation of S2 trans that does use EATS.

Relax the rules for EATS sequencing, we don't need it to be exact because the enclosing code will always disable ATS at the PCI device if we are changing EATS. This ensures there are no ATS transactions that can race with an EATS change so we don't need to carefully sequence these bits.

Re: [PATCH rc v2 4/4] iommu/arm-smmu-v3-test: Add nested s1bypass/s1dssbypass coverage

Quoted 28 lines · Nicolin Chen

STE in a nested case requires both S1 and S2 fields. And this makes the use case different from the existing one.

Add coverage for previously failed cases shifting between S2-only and S1+S2 STEs.

Hi, Nicolin,

Nit. Instead of duplicating this code, we can leverage the existing arm_smmu_test_make_cdtable_ste() helper here.

It would be better to add comments explaining why the number of syncs differs between the reverse transitions.
