From e7177339d7b5f9594b316842122b5fda9513d5e2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sean Christopherson Date: Tue, 31 Aug 2021 09:42:22 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "KVM: x86: mmu: Add guest physical address check in translate_gpa()" Revert a misguided illegal GPA check when "translating" a non-nested GPA. The check is woefully incomplete as it does not fill in @exception as expected by all callers, which leads to KVM attempting to inject a bogus exception, potentially exposing kernel stack information in the process.

The GPA check in question only comes into play when KVM is walking guest page tables (or "translating" CR3), and KVM already handles illegal GPA checks by setting reserved bits in rsvd_bits_mask for each PxE, or in the case of CR3 for loading PTDPTRs, manually checks for an illegal CR3. This particular failure doesn't hit the existing reserved bits checks because syzbot sets guest.MAXPHYADDR=1, and IA32 architecture simply doesn't allow for such an absurd MAXPHYADDR, e.g. 32-bit paging doesn't define any reserved PA bits checks, which KVM emulates by only incorporating the reserved PA bits into the "high" bits, i.e. bits 63:32. Simply remove the bogus check. There is zero meaningful value and no architectural justification for supporting guest.MAXPHYADDR < 32, and properly filling the exception would introduce non-trivial complexity. This reverts commit ec7771ab471ba6a945350353617e2e3385d0e013.
