- * *_SPTE_HOST_WRITEABLE (aka Host-writable) indicates whether the host permits
- * writes to the guest page mapped by the SPTE. This bit is cleared on SPTEs
- * that map guest pages in read-only memslots and read-only VMAs.
- *
- * Invariants:
- * - If Host-writable is clear, PT_WRITABLE_MASK must be clear.
- *
- *
- * *_SPTE_MMU_WRITEABLE (aka MMU-writable) indicates whether the shadow MMU
- * allows writes to the guest page mapped by the SPTE. This bit is cleared when
- * the guest page mapped by the SPTE contains a page table that is being
- * monitored for shadow paging. In this case the SPTE can only be made writable
- * by unsyncing the shadow page under the mmu_lock.
- *
- * Invariants:
- * - If MMU-writable is clear, PT_WRITABLE_MASK must be clear.
- * - If MMU-writable is set, Host-writable must be set.
- *
- * If MMU-writable is set, PT_WRITABLE_MASK is normally set but can be cleared
- * to track writes for dirty logging. For such SPTEs, KVM will locklessly set
- * PT_WRITABLE_MASK upon the next write from the guest and record the write in
- * the dirty log (see fast_page_fault()).
+ * {DEFAULT,EPT}_SPTE_{HOST,MMU}_WRITABLE are used to keep track of why a given
+ * SPTE is write-protected. See is_writable_pte() for details.

+ * An shadow-present leaf SPTE may be non-writable for 3 possible reasons:
+ *
+ * 1. To intercept writes for dirty logging. KVM write-protects huge pages
+ * so that they can be split be split down into the dirty logging
+ * granularity (4KiB) whenever the guest writes to them. KVM also
+ * write-protects 4KiB pages so that writes can be recorded in the dirty log
+ * (e.g. if not using PML). SPTEs are write-protected for dirty logging
+ * during the VM-iotcls that enable dirty logging.
+ *
+ * 2. To intercept writes to guest page tables that KVM is shadowing. When a
+ * guest writes to its page table the corresponding shadow page table will
+ * be marked "unsync". That way KVM knows which shadow page tables need to
+ * be updated on the next TLB flush, INVLPG, etc. and which do not.
+ *
+ * 3. To prevent guest writes to read-only memory, such as for memory in a
+ * read-only memslot or guest memory backed by a read-only VMA. Writes to
+ * such pages are disallowed entirely.
+ *
+ * To keep track of why a given SPTE is write-protected, KVM uses 2
+ * software-only bits in the SPTE:
+ *
+ * shadow_mmu_writable_mask, aka MMU-writable -
+ * Cleared on SPTEs that KVM is currently write-protecting for shadow paging
+ * purposes (case 2 above).
+ *
+ * shadow_host_writable_mask, aka Host-writable -
+ * Cleared on SPTEs that are not host-writable (case 3 above)
+ *
+ * Note, not all possible combinations of PT_WRITABLE_MASK,
+ * shadow_mmu_writable_mask, and shadow_host_writable_mask are valid. A given
+ * SPTE can be in only one of the following states, which map to the
+ * aforementioned 3 cases:
+ *
+ * shadow_host_writable_mask | shadow_mmu_writable_mask | PT_WRITABLE_MASK
+ * ------------------------- | ------------------------ | ----------------
+ * 1 | 1 | 1 (writable)
+ * 1 | 1 | 0 (case 1)
+ * 1 | 0 | 0 (case 2)
+ * 0 | 0 | 0 (case 3)
+ *
+ * The valid combinations of these bits are checked by
+ * check_spte_writable_invariants() whenever an SPTE is modified.
+ *
+ * Clearing the MMU-writable bit is always done under the MMU lock and always
+ * accompanied by a TLB flush before dropping the lock to avoid corrupting the
+ * shadow page tables between vCPUs. Write-protecting an SPTE for dirty logging
+ * (which does not clear the MMU-writable bit), does not flush TLBs before
+ * dropping the lock, as it only needs to synchronize guest writes with the
+ * dirty bitmap.
+ *
+ * So, there is the problem: clearing the MMU-writable bit can encounter a
+ * write-protected SPTE while CPUs still have writable mappings for that SPTE
+ * cached in their TLB. To address this, KVM always flushes TLBs when
+ * write-protecting SPTEs if the MMU-writable bit is set on the old SPTE.
+ *
+ * The Host-writable bit is not modified on present SPTEs, it is only set or
+ * cleared when an SPTE is first faulted in from non-present and then remains
+ * immutable.
