This is triggered by running both win7 and win2016 on L1 KVM simultaneously, 
and then gives stress to memory on L1, I can observed this hang on L1 when 
at least ~70% swap area is occupied on L0.

This is due to async pf was injected to L2 which should be injected to L1, 
L2 guest starts receiving pagefault w/ bogus %cr2(apf token from the host 
actually), and L1 guest starts accumulating tasks stuck in D state in 
kvm_async_pf_task_wait() since missing PAGE_READY async_pfs.

This patchset fixes it according to Radim's proposal "force a nested VM exit 
from nested_vmx_check_exception if the injected #PF is async_pf and handle 
the #PF VM exit in L1". https://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm/msg142498.html

Note: The patchset almost not touch SVM since I don't have AMD CPU to verify
the modification.

v3 -> v4:
 * reuse pad field in kvm_vcpu_events for async_page_fault
 * update kvm_vcpu_events API documentations
 * change async_page_fault type in vcpu->arch.exception from bool to u8

v2 -> v3:
 * add the flag to the userspace interface(KVM_GET/PUT_VCPU_EVENTS)

v1 -> v2:
 * remove nested_vmx_check_exception nr parameter
 * construct a simple special vm-exit information field for async pf
 * introduce nested_apf_token to vcpu->arch.apf to avoid change the CR2 
   visible in L2 guest 
 * avoid pass the apf directed towards it (L1) into L2 if there is L3 
   at the moment

Wanpeng Li (4):
  KVM: x86: Simple kvm_x86_ops->queue_exception parameter

FromWanpeng Li <kernellwp@gmail.com>

Subject[PATCH v4 3/4] KVM: async_pf: Force a nested vmexit if the injected #PF is async_pf
Message-ID<tUZJf-6uJ-15@gated-at.bofh.it>
In reply to#1672249
From: Wanpeng Li <wanpeng.li@hotmail.com>

Add an async_page_fault field to vcpu->arch.exception to identify an async 
page fault, and constructs the expected vm-exit information fields. Force 
a nested VM exit from nested_vmx_check_exception() if the injected #PF 
is async page fault. Extending the userspace interface KVM_GET_VCPU_EVENTS
and KVM_SET_VCPU_EVENTS for live migration.

I am not sure what would happen if new kernel (that can produce
async_page_fault=1) runs on top of old userspace (that can consume it).

I think it would be safer to make the new field "nested_apf", and only
set it if in guest_mode, like

	vcpu->arch.exception.nested_apf =
		is_guest_mode(vcpu) && fault->async_page_fault;
	if (vcpu->arch.exception.nested_apf)
		vcpu->arch.apf.nested_apf_token = fault->address;
	else
		vcpu->arch.cr2 = fault->address;

What do you think?

I have already added the same logic in kvm_inject_page_fault in patch
3/4, in addition, there is a guarantee it is in guest mode when we set
svm->vmcb->control.xxxx in nested_svm_check_exception, how about just
as what we do in nested_vmx_check_exception?

+ if (svm->vcpu.arch.exception.async_page_fault)
+     svm->vmcb->control.exit_info_2 = svm->vcpu.arch.apf.nested_apf_token;
+ else
+     svm->vmcb->control.exit_info_2 = svm->vcpu.arch.cr2;

Yes, see my reply to [PATCH v5 3/4].

What do you think of moving "is_guest_mode(vcpu) &&" from this "if":

to the previous assignment of vcpu->arch.exception.async_page_fault (so
that it can be renamed to nested_apf)?

Thanks,
