A secure guest will share some of its pages with hypervisor (Eg. virtio
bounce buffers etc). Support sharing of pages between hypervisor and
ultravisor.
Shared page is reachable via both HV and UV side page tables. Once a
secure page is converted to shared page, the device page that represents
the secure page is unmapped from the HV side page tables.

A pseries guest can be run as secure guest on Ultravisor-enabled
POWER platforms. On such platforms, this driver will be used to manage
the movement of guest pages between the normal memory managed by
hypervisor (HV) and secure memory managed by Ultravisor (UV).
HV is informed about the guest's transition to secure mode via hcalls:
H_SVM_INIT_START: Initiate securing a VM
H_SVM_INIT_DONE: Conclude securing a VM
As part of H_SVM_INIT_START, register all existing memslots with
the UV. H_SVM_INIT_DONE call by UV informs HV that transition of
the guest to secure mode is complete.
These two states (transition to secure mode STARTED and transition
to secure mode COMPLETED) are recorded in kvm->arch.secure_guest.
Setting these states will cause the assembly code that enters the
guest to call the UV_RETURN ucall instead of trying to enter the
guest directly.
Migration of pages betwen normal and secure memory of secure
guest is implemented in H_SVM_PAGE_IN and H_SVM_PAGE_OUT hcalls.
H_SVM_PAGE_IN: Move the content of a normal page to secure page
H_SVM_PAGE_OUT: Move the content of a secure page to normal page
Private ZONE_DEVICE memory equal to the amount of secure memory
available in the platform for running secure guests is created.
Whenever a page belonging to the guest becomes secure, a page from
this private device memory is used to represent and track that secure
page on the HV side. The movement of pages between normal and secure
memory is done via migrate_vma_pages() using UV_PAGE_IN and
UV_PAGE_OUT ucalls.
In order to prevent the device private pages (that correspond to pages
of secure guest) from participating in KSM merging, H_SVM_PAGE_IN
calls ksm_madvise() under read version of mmap_sem. However
ksm_madvise() needs to be under write lock. Hence we call
kvmppc_svm_page_in with mmap_sem held for writing, and it then
downgrades to a read lock after calling ksm_madvise.

On PEF-enabled POWER platforms that support running of secure guests,
secure pages of the guest are represented by device private pages
in the host. Such pages needn't participate in KSM merging. This is
achieved by using ksm_madvise() call which need to be exported
since KVM PPC can be a kernel module.

Second KVM PPC update for 5.5
- Two fixes from Greg Kurz to fix memory leak bugs in the XIVE code.
Commit 37e4c997da ("KVM: VMX: validate individual bits of guest
MSR_IA32_FEATURE_CONTROL") broke the KVM_SET_MSRS ABI by instituting
new constraints on the data values that kvm would accept for the guest
MSR, IA32_FEATURE_CONTROL. Perhaps these constraints should have been
opt-in via a new KVM capability, but they were applied
indiscriminately, breaking at least one existing hypervisor.
Relax the constraints to allow either or both of
FEATURE_CONTROL_VMXON_ENABLED_OUTSIDE_SMX and
FEATURE_CONTROL_VMXON_ENABLED_INSIDE_SMX to be set when nVMX is
enabled. This change is sufficient to fix the aforementioned breakage.

Acquire kvm->srcu for the duration of ->set_nested_state() to fix a bug
where nVMX derefences ->memslots without holding ->srcu or ->slots_lock.
The other half of nested migration, ->get_nested_state(), does not need
to acquire ->srcu as it is a purely a dump of internal KVM (and CPU)
state to userspace.
Detected as an RCU lockdep splat that is 100% reproducible by running
KVM's state_test selftest with CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y. Note that the
failing function, kvm_is_visible_gfn(), is only checking the validity of
a gfn, it's not actually accessing guest memory (which is more or less
unsupported during vmx_set_nested_state() due to incorrect MMU state),
i.e. vmx_set_nested_state() itself isn't fundamentally broken. In any
case, setting nested state isn't a fast path so there's no reason to go
out of our way to avoid taking ->srcu.

According to Intel SDM section 28.3.3.3/28.3.3.4 Guidelines for Use
of the INVVPID/INVEPT Instruction, the hypervisor needs to execute
INVVPID/INVEPT X in case CPU executes VMEntry with VPID/EPTP X and
either: "Virtualize APIC accesses" VM-execution control was changed
from 0 to 1, OR the value of apic_access_page was changed.
In the nested case, the burden falls on L1, unless L0 enables EPT in
vmcs02 but L1 enables neither EPT nor VPID in vmcs12. For this reason
prepare_vmcs02() and load_vmcs12_host_state() have special code to
request a TLB flush in case L1 does not use EPT but it uses
"virtualize APIC accesses".
This special case however is not necessary. On a nested vmentry the
physical TLB will already be flushed except if all the following apply:
* L0 uses VPID
* L1 uses VPID
* L0 can guarantee TLB entries populated while running L1 are tagged
differently than TLB entries populated while running L2.
If the first condition is false, the processor will flush the TLB
on vmentry to L2. If the second or third condition are false,
prepare_vmcs02() will request KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH. However, even
if both are true, no extra TLB flush is needed to handle the APIC
access page:
* if L1 doesn't use VPID, the second condition doesn't hold and the
TLB will be flushed anyway.
* if L1 uses VPID, it has to flush the TLB itself with INVVPID and
section 28.3.3.3 doesn't apply to L0.
* even INVEPT is not needed because, if L0 uses EPT, it uses different
EPTP when running L2 than L1 (because guest_mode is part of mmu-role).
In this case SDM section 28.3.3.4 doesn't apply.
Similarly, examining nested_vmx_vmexit()->load_vmcs12_host_state(),
one could note that L0 won't flush TLB only in cases where SDM sections
28.3.3.3 and 28.3.3.4 don't apply. In particular, if L0 uses different
VPIDs for L1 and L2 (i.e. vmx->vpid != vmx->nested.vpid02), section
28.3.3.3 doesn't apply.
Thus, remove this flush from prepare_vmcs02() and nested_vmx_vmexit().
Side-note: This patch can be viewed as removing parts of commit
fb6c819843 ("kvm: vmx: Flush TLB when the APIC-access address changes”)
that is not relevant anymore since commit
1313cc2bd8 ("kvm: mmu: Add guest_mode to kvm_mmu_page_role”).
i.e. The first commit assumes that if L0 use EPT and L1 doesn’t use EPT,
then L0 will use same EPTP for both L0 and L1. Which indeed required
L0 to execute INVEPT before entering L2 guest. This assumption is
not true anymore since when guest_mode was added to mmu-role.

vmcs->apic_access_page is simply a token that the hypervisor puts into
the PFN of a 4KB EPTE (or PTE if using shadow-paging) that triggers
APIC-access VMExit or APIC virtualization logic whenever a CPU running
in VMX non-root mode read/write from/to this PFN.
As every write either triggers an APIC-access VMExit or write is
performed on vmcs->virtual_apic_page, the PFN pointed to by
vmcs->apic_access_page should never actually be touched by CPU.
Therefore, there is no need to mark vmcs02->apic_access_page as dirty
after unpin it on L2->L1 emulated VMExit or when L1 exit VMX operation.

The current guest mitigation of TAA is both too heavy and not really
sufficient. It is too heavy because it will cause some affected CPUs
(those that have MDS_NO but lack TAA_NO) to fall back to VERW and
get the corresponding slowdown. It is not really sufficient because
it will cause the MDS_NO bit to disappear upon microcode update, so
that VMs started before the microcode update will not be runnable
anymore afterwards, even with tsx=on.
Instead, if tsx=on on the host, we can emulate MSR_IA32_TSX_CTRL for
the guest and let it run without the VERW mitigation. Even though
MSR_IA32_TSX_CTRL is quite heavyweight, and we do not want to write
it on every vmentry, we can use the shared MSR functionality because
the host kernel need not protect itself from TSX-based side-channels.

"Shared MSRs" are guest MSRs that are written to the host MSRs but
keep their value until the next return to userspace. They support
a mask, so that some bits keep the host value, but this mask is
only used to skip an unnecessary MSR write and the value written
to the MSR is always the guest MSR.
Fix this and, while at it, do not update smsr->values[slot].curr if
for whatever reason the wrmsr fails. This should only happen due to
reserved bits, so the value written to smsr->values[slot].curr
will not match when the user-return notifier and the host value will
always be restored. However, it is untidy and in rare cases this
can actually avoid spurious WRMSRs on return to userspace.

The EQ page is allocated by the guest and then passed to the hypervisor
with the H_INT_SET_QUEUE_CONFIG hcall. A reference is taken on the page
before handing it over to the HW. This reference is dropped either when
the guest issues the H_INT_RESET hcall or when the KVM device is released.
But, the guest can legitimately call H_INT_SET_QUEUE_CONFIG several times,
either to reset the EQ (vCPU hot unplug) or to set a new EQ (guest reboot).
In both cases the existing EQ page reference is leaked because we simply
overwrite it in the XIVE queue structure without calling put_page().
This is especially visible when the guest memory is backed with huge pages:
start a VM up to the guest userspace, either reboot it or unplug a vCPU,
quit QEMU. The leak is observed by comparing the value of HugePages_Free in
/proc/meminfo before and after the VM is run.
Ideally we'd want the XIVE code to handle the EQ page de-allocation at the
platform level. This isn't the case right now because the various XIVE
drivers have different allocation needs. It could maybe worth introducing
hooks for this purpose instead of exposing XIVE internals to the drivers,
but this is certainly a huge work to be done later.
In the meantime, for easier backport, fix both vCPU unplug and guest reboot
leaks by introducing a wrapper around xive_native_configure_queue() that
does the necessary cleanup.

In IOAPIC fixed delivery mode instead of flushing the scan

vCPUs specified within the destination field.
This patch introduces kvm_get_dest_vcpus_mask() API which
retrieves an array of target vCPUs by using
kvm_apic_map_get_dest_lapic() and then based on the
vcpus_idx, it sets the bit in a bitmap. However, if the above
fails kvm_get_dest_vcpus_mask() finds the target vCPUs by
traversing all available vCPUs. Followed by setting the
bits in the bitmap.
If we had different vCPUs in the previous request for the
same redirection table entry then bits corresponding to
these vCPUs are also set. This to done to keep
ioapic_handled_vectors synchronized.
This bitmap is then eventually passed on to
kvm_make_vcpus_request_mask() to generate a masked request
only for the target vCPUs.
This would enable us to reduce the latency overhead on isolated
vCPUs caused by the IPI to process due to KVM_REQ_IOAPIC_SCAN.

Rename NR_AUTOLOAD_MSRS to NR_LOADSTORE_MSRS. This needs to be done
due to the addition of the MSR-autostore area that will be added in a

The existing implementation for loading the IA32_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL MSR
on VM-exit was incorrect, as the next call to atomic_switch_perf_msrs()
could cause this value to be overwritten. Instead, call kvm_set_msr()
which will allow atomic_switch_perf_msrs() to correctly set the values.
Define a macro, SET_MSR_OR_WARN(), to set the MSR with kvm_set_msr()
and WARN on failure.

When KVM emulates a nested VMEntry (L1->L2 VMEntry), it switches mmu root
page. If nEPT is used, this will happen from
kvm_init_shadow_ept_mmu()->__kvm_mmu_new_cr3() and otherwise it will
happpen from nested_vmx_load_cr3()->kvm_mmu_new_cr3(). Either case,
__kvm_mmu_new_cr3() will use fast_cr3_switch() in attempt to switch to a
previously cached root page.
In case fast_cr3_switch() finds a matching cached root page, it will
set it in mmu->root_hpa and request KVM_REQ_LOAD_CR3 such that on
next entry to guest, KVM will set root HPA in appropriate hardware
fields (e.g. vmcs->eptp). In addition, fast_cr3_switch() calls
kvm_x86_ops->tlb_flush() in order to flush TLB as MMU root page
was replaced.
This works as mmu->root_hpa, which vmx_flush_tlb() use, was
already replaced in cached_root_available(). However, this may
result in unnecessary INVEPT execution because a KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH
may have already been requested. For example, by prepare_vmcs02()
in case L1 don't use VPID.
Therefore, change fast_cr3_switch() to just request TLB flush on
next entry to guest.

Currently, a host perf_event is created for a vPMC functionality emulation.
It’s unpredictable to determine if a disabled perf_event will be reused.
If they are disabled and are not reused for a considerable period of time,
those obsolete perf_events would increase host context switch overhead that
could have been avoided.
If the guest doesn't WRMSR any of the vPMC's MSRs during an entire vcpu
sched time slice, and its independent enable bit of the vPMC isn't set,
we can predict that the guest has finished the use of this vPMC, and then
do request KVM_REQ_PMU in kvm_arch_sched_in and release those perf_events
in the first call of kvm_pmu_handle_event() after the vcpu is scheduled in.
This lazy mechanism delays the event release time to the beginning of the
next scheduled time slice if vPMC's MSRs aren't changed during this time
slice. If guest comes back to use this vPMC in next time slice, a new perf
event would be re-created via perf_event_create_kernel_counter() as usual.

The perf_event_create_kernel_counter() in the pmc_reprogram_counter() is
a heavyweight and high-frequency operation, especially when host disables
the watchdog (maximum 21000000 ns) which leads to an unacceptable latency
of the guest NMI handler. It limits the use of vPMUs in the guest.
When a vPMC is fully enabled, the legacy reprogram_*_counter() would stop
and release its existing perf_event (if any) every time EVEN in most cases
almost the same requested perf_event will be created and configured again.
For each vPMC, if the reuqested config ('u64 eventsel' for gp and 'u8 ctrl'
for fixed) is the same as its current config AND a new sample period based
on pmc->counter is accepted by host perf interface, the current event could
be reused safely as a new created one does. Otherwise, do release the
undesirable perf_event and reprogram a new one as usual.
It's light-weight to call pmc_pause_counter (disable, read and reset event)
and pmc_resume_counter (recalibrate period and re-enable event) as guest
expects instead of release-and-create again on any condition. Compared to
use the filterable event->attr or hw.config, a new 'u64 current_config'
field is added to save the last original programed config for each vPMC.
Based on this implementation, the number of calls to pmc_reprogram_counter
is reduced by ~82.5% for a gp sampling event and ~99.9% for a fixed event.
In the usage of multiplexing perf sampling mode, the average latency of the
guest NMI handler is reduced from 104923 ns to 48393 ns (~2.16x speed up).
If host disables watchdog, the minimum latecy of guest NMI handler could be
speed up at ~3413x (from 20407603 to 5979 ns) and at ~786x in the average.

is_valid_rdpmc_ecx; likewise for the wrapper kvm_pmu_is_valid_msr_idx.

When L1 don't use TPR-Shadow to run L2, L0 configures vmcs02 without
TPR-Shadow and install intercepts on CR8 access (load and store).
If L1 do not intercept L2 CR8 access, L0 intercepts on those accesses
will emulate load/store on L1's LAPIC TPR. If in this case L2 lowers
TPR such that there is now an injectable interrupt to L1,
apic_update_ppr() will request a KVM_REQ_EVENT which will trigger a call
to update_cr8_intercept() to update TPR-Threshold to highest pending IRR
priority.
However, this update to TPR-Threshold is done while active vmcs is
vmcs02 instead of vmcs01. Thus, when later at some point L0 will
emulate an exit from L2 to L1, L1 will still run with high
TPR-Threshold. This will result in every VMEntry to L1 to immediately
exit on TPR_BELOW_THRESHOLD and continue to do so infinitely until
some condition will cause KVM_REQ_EVENT to be set.
(Note that TPR_BELOW_THRESHOLD exit handler do not set KVM_REQ_EVENT
until apic_update_ppr() will notice a new injectable interrupt for PPR)
To fix this issue, change update_cr8_intercept() such that if L2 lowers
L1's TPR in a way that requires to lower L1's TPR-Threshold, save update
to TPR-Threshold and apply it to vmcs01 when L0 emulates an exit from
L2 to L1.
