Xin,
I have attached a modified version of your patch which I believe deals with
a number of issues. I briefly outline the major ones here:
1. The initialisation in cpu/common.c is misguided. Features like
set_in_cr4(), setup_clear_cpu_cap(), and cpu_has_xxx, are designed to allow
the feature initialisation to happen close in code to where the feature is
used. Hence I have moved the initialisation into traps.c:trap_init().
2. I have renamed the command-line option to 'smep'. Boolean options can be
inverted by prepending 'no-', or appending '={0,false,off,no}'. We don't
generally encode the negative within the base option name string.
3. I have pushed interpretation of the pf_type enumeration out to the
callers of spurious_page_fault(). This is because a SMEP fault while Xen is
executing should *crash Xen*. So that's what I do. Further, when it is a
guest fault, we should domain_crash() not domain_crash_synchronous() (which
is generally a more dangerous function for Xen's own health).
More generally, I wonder whether SMEP should be enabled only for guests
(even PV guests) which detect it via CPUID and proactively enable it via
their virtualised CR4? I mean, it is off in real hardware by default for a
reason: backward compatibility. Furthermore, we only detect spurious page
faults for buggy old PV guests, the rest will get the SMEP fault punted up
to them, which seems odd if they don't understand SMEP. What do you think?
I have cc'ed Jan since he has commented on previous versions of this patch.
