[PATCH v4 3/5] KVM: PPC: mmio: Reject instructions that access more than mmio.data size

[Nicholas Piggin]

Excerpts from Fabiano Rosas's message of January 22, 2022 8:26 am:
> The MMIO interface between the kernel and userspace uses a structure
> that supports a maximum of 8-bytes of data. Instructions that access
> more than that need to be emulated in parts.
> 
> We currently don't have generic support for splitting the emulation in
> parts and each set of instructions needs to be explicitly included.
> 
> There's already an error message being printed when a load or store
> exceeds the mmio.data buffer but we don't fail the emulation until
> later at kvmppc_complete_mmio_load and even then we allow userspace to
> make a partial copy of the data, which ends up overwriting some fields
> of the mmio structure.
> 
> This patch makes the emulation fail earlier at kvmppc_handle_load|store,
> which will send a Program interrupt to the guest. This is better than
> allowing the guest to proceed with partial data.
> 
> Note that this was caught in a somewhat artificial scenario using
> quadword instructions (lq/stq), there's no account of an actual guest
> in the wild running instructions that are not properly emulated.
> 
> (While here, remove the "bad MMIO" messages. The caller already has an
> error message.)
