INTEL_PMC_MAX_GENERIC is currently 32, which exceeds the 18 contiguous MSR indices reserved by Intel for event selectors. Since some machines actually have MSRs past the reserved range, these may survive the filtering of msrs_to_save array and would be rejected by KVM_GET/SET_MSR. To avoid this, cut the list to whatever CPUID reports for the host's architectural PMU.

Fix the following build error from "make TARGETS=kvm kselftest": libkvm.a(assert.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.rodata.str1.1' can not be used when making a PIE object; recompile with -fPIC This error is seen when build is done from the main Makefile using kselftest target. In this case KBUILD_CPPFLAGS and CC_OPTION_CFLAGS are defined. When build is invoked using: "make -C tools/testing/selftests/kvm" KBUILD_CPPFLAGS and CC_OPTION_CFLAGS aren't defined. There is no need to pass in KBUILD_CPPFLAGS and CC_OPTION_CFLAGS for the check to determine if --no-pie is necessary, which is the case when these two aren't defined when "make -C tools/testing/selftests/kvm" runs. Fix it by simplifying the no-pie-option logic. With this change, both build variations work.

KVM can only virtualize as many PMCs as the host supports. Limit the number of generic counters and fixed counters to the number of corresponding counters supported on the host, rather than to INTEL_PMC_MAX_GENERIC and INTEL_PMC_MAX_FIXED, respectively. Note that INTEL_PMC_MAX_GENERIC is currently 32, which exceeds the 18 contiguous MSR indices reserved by Intel for event selectors. Since the existing code relies on a contiguous range of MSR indices for event selectors, it can't possibly work for more than 18 general purpose counters.

The largepages debugfs entry is incremented/decremented as shadow pages are created or destroyed. Clearing it will result in an underflow, which is harmless to KVM but ugly (and could be misinterpreted by tools that use debugfs information), so make this particular statistic read-only.

The l1tf_vmx_mitigation is only set to VMENTER_L1D_FLUSH_NOT_REQUIRED when the ARCH_CAPABILITIES MSR indicates that L1D flush is not required. However, if the CPU is not affected by L1TF, l1tf_vmx_mitigation will still be set to VMENTER_L1D_FLUSH_AUTO. This is certainly not the best option for a !X86_BUG_L1TF CPU. So force l1tf_vmx_mitigation to VMENTER_L1D_FLUSH_NOT_REQUIRED to make it more explicit in case users are checking the vmentry_l1d_flush parameter.

Shadow paging is fundamentally incompatible with the page-modification log, because the GPAs in the log come from the wrong memory map. In particular, for the EPT page-modification log, the GPAs in the log come from L2 rather than L1. (If there was a non-EPT page-modification log, we couldn't use it for shadow paging because it would log GVAs rather than GPAs). Therefore, we need to rely on write protection to record dirty pages. This has the side effect of bypassing PML, since writes now result in an EPT violation vmexit. This is relatively easy to add to KVM, because pretty much the only place that needs changing is spte_clear_dirty. The first access to the page already goes through the page fault path and records the correct GPA; it's only subsequent accesses that are wrong. Therefore, we can equip set_spte (where the first access happens) to record that the SPTE will have to be write protected, and then spte_clear_dirty will use this information to do the right thing.

Currently, we are overloading SPTE_SPECIAL_MASK to mean both "A/D bits unavailable" and MMIO, where the difference between the two is determined by mio_mask and mmio_value. However, the next patch will need two bits to distinguish availability of A/D bits from write protection. So, while at it give MMIO its own bit pattern, and move the two bits from bit 62 to bits 52..53 since Intel is allocating EPT page table bits from the top.

I was surprised to see that the guest reported `fxsave_leak' while the host did not. After digging deeper I noticed that the bits are simply masked out during enumeration.

For these CPUID leaves, the EDX output is not dependent on the ECX input (i.e. the SIGNIFCANT_INDEX flag doesn't apply to EDX). Furthermore, the low byte of the ECX output is always identical to the low byte of the ECX input. KVM does not produce the correct ECX and EDX outputs for any undefined subleaves beyond the first.

Rework the VMX instruction helpers using asm-goto to branch directly to error/fault "handlers" in lieu of using __ex(), i.e. the generic ____kvm_handle_fault_on_reboot(). Branching directly to fault handling code during fixup avoids the extra JMP that is inserted after every VMX instruction when using the generic "fault on reboot" (see commit 3901336e, "x86/kvm: Don't call kvm_spurious_fault() from .fixup"). Opportunistically clean up the helpers so that they all have consistent error handling and messages. Leave the usage of ____kvm_handle_fault_on_reboot() (via __ex()) in kvm_cpu_vmxoff() and nested_vmx_check_vmentry_hw() as is. The VMXOFF case is not a fast path, i.e. the cleanliness of __ex() is worth the JMP, and the extra JMP in nested_vmx_check_vmentry_hw() is unavoidable. Note, VMREAD cannot get the asm-goto treatment as output operands aren't compatible with GCC's asm-goto due to internal compiler restrictions.

Explicitly check kvm_rebooting in kvm_spurious_fault() prior to invoking BUG(), as opposed to assuming the caller has already done so. Letting kvm_spurious_fault() be called "directly" will allow VMX to better optimize its low level assembly flows.

After commit e8bb4755eea2("KVM: selftests: Split ucall.c into architecture specific files") selftests which use ucall on x86 started segfaulting and apparently it's gcc to blame: it "optimizes" ucall() function throwing away va_start/va_end part because it thinks the structure is not being used. Previously, it couldn't do that because the there was also MMIO version and the decision which particular implementation to use was done at runtime. With older gccs it's possible to solve the problem by adding 'volatile' to 'struct ucall' but at least with gcc-8.3 this trick doesn't work. 'memory' clobber seems to do the job.

Actually, only 6% of wait_early events are caused by vcpu_is_preempted() being true.

Allowing an unlimited number of MSRs to be specified via the VMX load/store MSR lists (e.g., vm-entry MSR load list) is bad for two reasons. First, a guest can specify an unreasonable number of MSRs, forcing KVM to process all of them in software. Second, the SDM bounds the number of MSRs allowed to be packed into the atomic switch MSR lists. Quoting the "Miscellaneous Data" section in the "VMX Capability Reporting Facility" appendix: "Bits 27:25 is used to compute the recommended maximum number of MSRs that should appear in the VM-exit MSR-store list, the VM-exit MSR-load list, or the VM-entry MSR-load list. Specifically, if the value bits 27:25 of IA32_VMX_MISC is N, then 512 * (N + 1) is the recommended maximum number of MSRs to be included in each list. If the limit is exceeded, undefined processor behavior may result (including a machine check during the VMX transition)." Because KVM needs to protect itself and can't model "undefined processor behavior", arbitrarily force a VM-entry to fail due to MSR loading when the MSR load list is too large. Similarly, trigger an abort during a VM exit that encounters an MSR load list or MSR store list that is too large. The MSR list size is intentionally not pre-checked so as to maintain compatibility with hardware inasmuch as possible. Test these new checks with the kvm-unit-test "x86: nvmx: test max atomic switch MSRs".

Toggle mmu_valid_gen between '0' and '1' instead of blindly incrementing the generation. Because slots_lock is held for the entire duration of zapping obsolete pages, it's impossible for there to be multiple invalid generations associated with shadow pages at any given time. Toggling between the two generations (valid vs. invalid) allows changing mmu_valid_gen from an unsigned long to a u8, which reduces the size of struct kvm_mmu_page from 160 to 152 bytes on 64-bit KVM, i.e. reduces KVM's memory footprint by 8 bytes per shadow page. Set sp->mmu_valid_gen before it is added to active_mmu_pages. Functionally this has no effect as kvm_mmu_alloc_page() has a single caller that sets sp->mmu_valid_gen soon thereafter, but visually it is jarring to see a shadow page being added to the list without its mmu_valid_gen first being set.

Paraphrashing the original changelog: Reload the mmu on all vCPUs after updating the generation number so that obsolete pages are not used by any vCPUs. This allows collapsing all TLB flushes during obsolete page zapping into a single flush, as there is no need to flush when dropping mmu_lock (to reschedule). Note: a remote TLB flush is still needed before freeing the pages as other vCPUs may be doing a lockless shadow page walk.

Use the fast invalidate mechasim to zap MMIO sptes on a MMIO generation wrap. The fast invalidate flow was reintroduced to fix a livelock bug in kvm_mmu_zap_all() that can occur if kvm_mmu_zap_all() is invoked when the guest has live vCPUs. I.e. using kvm_mmu_zap_all() to handle the MMIO generation wrap is theoretically susceptible to the livelock bug. This effectively reverts commit 4771450c ("Revert "KVM: MMU: drop kvm_mmu_zap_mmio_sptes""), i.e. restores the behavior of commit a8eca9dc ("KVM: MMU: drop kvm_mmu_zap_mmio_sptes"). Note, this actually fixes commit 571c5af0 ("KVM: x86/mmu: Voluntarily reschedule as needed when zapping MMIO sptes"), but there is no need to incrementally revert back to using fast invalidate, e.g. doing so doesn't provide any bisection or stability benefits.

Treat invalid shadow pages as obsolete to fix a bug where an obsolete and invalid page with a non-zero root count could become non-obsolete due to mmu_valid_gen wrapping. The bug is largely theoretical with the current code base, as an unsigned long will effectively never wrap on 64-bit KVM, and userspace would have to deliberately stall a vCPU in order to keep an obsolete invalid page on the active list while simultaneously modifying memslots billions of times to trigger a wrap. The obvious alternative is to use a 64-bit value for mmu_valid_gen, but it's actually desirable to go in the opposite direction, i.e. using a smaller 8-bit value to reduce KVM's memory footprint by 8 bytes per shadow page, and relying on proper treatment of invalid pages instead of preventing the generation from wrapping. Note, "Fixes" points at a commit that was at one point reverted, but has since been restored.

As the latest Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer's Manual, UMWAIT and TPAUSE instructions cause a VM exit if the RDTSC exiting and enable user wait and pause VM-execution controls are both 1. Because KVM never enable RDTSC exiting, the vm-exit for UMWAIT and TPAUSE should never happen. Considering EXIT_REASON_XSAVES and EXIT_REASON_XRSTORS is also unexpected VM-exit for KVM. Introduce a common exit helper handle_unexpected_vmexit() to handle these unexpected VM-exit.
