From: Chao Peng <chao.p.peng at linux.intel.com>
In confidential computing usages, whether a page is private or shared is
necessary information for KVM to perform operations like page fault
handling, page zapping etc. There are other potential use cases for
per-page memory attributes, e.g. to make memory read-only (or no-exec,
or exec-only, etc.) without having to modify memslots.
Introduce two ioctls (advertised by KVM_CAP_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES) to allow
userspace to operate on the per-page memory attributes.
- KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES to set the per-page memory attributes to
a guest memory range.
- KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES to return the KVM supported
memory attributes.
Use an xarray to store the per-page attributes internally, with a naive,
not fully optimized implementation, i.e. prioritize correctness over
performance for the initial implementation.
Because setting memory attributes is roughly analogous to mprotect() on
memory that is mapped into the guest, zap existing mappings prior to
updating the memory attributes. Opportunistically provide an arch hook
for the post-set path (needed to complete invalidation anyways) in
anticipation of x86 needing the hook to update metadata related to
determining whether or not a given gfn can be backed with various sizes
of hugepages.
It's possible that future usages may not require an invalidation, e.g.
if KVM ends up supporting RWX protections and userspace grants _more_
protections, but again opt for simplicity and punt optimizations to
if/when they are needed.

+-----------------------------------------
+
+:Capability: KVM_CAP_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES
+:Architectures: x86
+:Type: vm ioctl
+:Parameters: u64 memory attributes bitmask(out)
+:Returns: 0 on success, <0 on error
+
+Returns supported memory attributes bitmask. Supported memory attributes will
+have the corresponding bits set in u64 memory attributes bitmask.
+
+The following memory attributes are defined::

+4.140 KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES
+-----------------------------------------
+
+:Capability: KVM_CAP_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES
+:Architectures: x86
+:Type: vm ioctl
+:Parameters: struct kvm_memory_attributes(in/out)
+:Returns: 0 on success, <0 on error
+
+Sets memory attributes for pages in a guest memory range. Parameters are
+specified via the following structure::
+
+ struct kvm_memory_attributes {
+ __u64 address;
+ __u64 size;
+ __u64 attributes;
+ __u64 flags;
+ };
+
+The user sets the per-page memory attributes to a guest memory range indicated
+by address/size, and in return KVM adjusts address and size to reflect the
+actual pages of the memory range have been successfully set to the attributes.
+If the call returns 0, "address" is updated to the last successful address + 1
+and "size" is updated to the remaining address size that has not been set
+successfully. The user should check the return value as well as the size to
+decide if the operation succeeded for the whole range or not. The user may want
+to retry the operation with the returned address/size if the previous range was
+partially successful.
+
+Both address and size should be page aligned and the supported attributes can be
+retrieved with KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES.
+
+The "flags" field may be used for future extensions and should be set to 0s.
