Handle_vmptrld is split into two parts: the part that handles the

of a vCPU that had a valid VMCS pointer when a snapshot was taken.

Since bf9f6ac8d7 ("KVM: Update Posted-Interrupts Descriptor when vCPU
is blocked", 2015-09-18) the posted interrupt descriptor is checked
unconditionally for PIR.ON. Therefore we don't need KVM_REQ_EVENT to
trigger the scan and, if NMIs or SMIs are not involved, we can avoid
the complicated event injection path.
Calling kvm_vcpu_kick if PIR.ON=1 is also useless, though it has been
there since APICv was introduced.
However, without the KVM_REQ_EVENT safety net KVM needs to be much
more careful about races between vmx_deliver_posted_interrupt and
vcpu_enter_guest. First, the IPI for posted interrupts may be issued
between setting vcpu->mode = IN_GUEST_MODE and disabling interrupts.
If that happens, kvm_trigger_posted_interrupt returns true, but
smp_kvm_posted_intr_ipi doesn't do anything about it. The guest is
entered with PIR.ON, but the posted interrupt IPI has not been sent
and the interrupt is only delivered to the guest on the next vmentry
(if any). To fix this, disable interrupts before setting vcpu->mode.
This ensures that the IPI is delayed until the guest enters non-root mode;
it is then trapped by the processor causing the interrupt to be injected.
Second, the IPI may be issued between kvm_x86_ops->sync_pir_to_irr(vcpu)
and vcpu->mode = IN_GUEST_MODE. In this case, kvm_vcpu_kick is called
but it (correctly) doesn't do anything because it sees vcpu->mode ==
OUTSIDE_GUEST_MODE. Again, the guest is entered with PIR.ON but no
posted interrupt IPI is pending; this time, the fix for this is to move
the RVI update after IN_GUEST_MODE.
Both issues were mostly masked by the liberal usage of KVM_REQ_EVENT,
though the second could actually happen with VT-d posted interrupts.
In both race scenarios KVM_REQ_EVENT would cancel guest entry, resulting
in another vmentry which would inject the interrupt.
This saves about 300 cycles on the self_ipi_* tests of vmexit.flat.

Calls to apic_find_highest_irr are scanning IRR twice, once

now that it does the computation, it can also do the RVI write.

MMIO SPTEs currently set both bits 62 and 63 to distinguish them as special
PTEs. However, bit 63 is used as the SVE bit in Intel EPT PTEs. The SVE bit
is ignored for misconfigured PTEs but not necessarily for not-Present PTEs.
Since MMIO SPTEs use an EPT misconfiguration, so using bit 63 for them is
acceptable. However, the upcoming fast access tracking feature adds another
type of special tracking PTE, which uses not-Present PTEs and hence should
not set bit 63.
In order to use common bits to distinguish both type of special PTEs, we
now use only bit 62 as the special bit.

KVM does not correctly handle L1 hypervisors that emulate L2 real mode with
PAE and EPT, such as Hyper-V. In this mode, the L1 hypervisor populates guest
PDPTE VMCS fields and leaves guest CR3 uninitialized because it is not used
(see 26.3.2.4 Loading Page-Directory-Pointer-Table Entries). KVM always
dereferences CR3 and tries to load PDPTEs if PAE is on. This leads to two
related issues:
1) On the first nested vmentry, the guest PDPTEs, as populated by L1, are
overwritten in ept_load_pdptrs because the registers are believed to have
been loaded in load_pdptrs as part of kvm_set_cr3. This is incorrect. L2 is
running with PAE enabled but PDPTRs have been set up by L1.
2) When L2 is about to enable paging and loads its CR3, we, again, attempt
to load PDPTEs in load_pdptrs called from kvm_set_cr3. There are no guarantees
that this will succeed (it's just a CR3 load, paging is not enabled yet) and
if it doesn't, kvm_set_cr3 returns early without persisting the CR3 which is
then lost and L2 crashes right after it enables paging.
This patch replaces the kvm_set_cr3 call with a simple register write if PAE
and EPT are both on. CR3 is not to be interpreted in this case.

MSR_IA32_CR{0,4}_FIXED1 define which bits in CR0 and CR4 are allowed to
be 1 during VMX operation. Since the set of allowed-1 bits is the same
in and out of VMX operation, we can generate these MSRs entirely from
the guest's CPUID. This lets userspace avoiding having to save/restore
these MSRs.
This patch also initializes MSR_IA32_CR{0,4}_FIXED1 from the CPU's MSRs
by default. This is a saner than the current default of -1ull, which
includes bits that the host CPU does not support.

KVM emulates MSR_IA32_VMX_CR{0,4}_FIXED1 with the value -1ULL, meaning
all CR0 and CR4 bits are allowed to be 1 during VMX operation.
This does not match real hardware, which disallows the high 32 bits of
CR0 to be 1, and disallows reserved bits of CR4 to be 1 (including bits
which are defined in the SDM but missing according to CPUID). A guest
can induce a VM-entry failure by setting these bits in GUEST_CR0 and
GUEST_CR4, despite MSR_IA32_VMX_CR{0,4}_FIXED1 indicating they are
valid.
Since KVM has allowed all bits to be 1 in CR0 and CR4, the existing
checks on these registers do not verify must-be-0 bits. Fix these checks
to identify must-be-0 bits according to MSR_IA32_VMX_CR{0,4}_FIXED1.
This patch should introduce no change in behavior in KVM, since these
MSRs are still -1ULL.

The VMX capability MSRs advertise the set of features the KVM virtual
CPU can support. This set of features varies across different host CPUs
and KVM versions. This patch aims to addresses both sources of
differences, allowing VMs to be migrated across CPUs and KVM versions
without guest-visible changes to these MSRs. Note that cross-KVM-
version migration is only supported from this point forward.
When the VMX capability MSRs are restored, they are audited to check
that the set of features advertised are a subset of what KVM and the
CPU support.
Since the VMX capability MSRs are read-only, they do not need to be on
the default MSR save/restore lists. The userspace hypervisor can set
the values of these MSRs or read them from KVM at VCPU creation time,
and restore the same value after every save/restore.

The "non-true" VMX capability MSRs can be generated from their "true"
counterparts, by OR-ing the default1 bits. The default1 bits are fixed
and defined in the SDM.
Since we can generate the non-true VMX MSRs from the true versions,
there's no need to store both in struct nested_vmx. This also lets
userspace avoid having to restore the non-true MSRs.
Note this does not preclude emulating MSR_IA32_VMX_BASIC[55]=0. To do so,
we simply need to set all the default1 bits in the true MSRs (such that
the true MSRs and the generated non-true MSRs are equal).

kvm_skip_emulated_instruction calls both
kvm_x86_ops->skip_emulated_instruction and kvm_vcpu_check_singlestep,
skipping the emulated instruction and generating a trap if necessary.
Replacing skip_emulated_instruction calls with
kvm_skip_emulated_instruction is straightforward, except for:
- ICEBP, which is already inside a trap, so avoid triggering another trap.
- Instructions that can trigger exits to userspace, such as the IO insns,
MOVs to CR8, and HALT. If kvm_skip_emulated_instruction does trigger a
KVM_GUESTDBG_SINGLESTEP exit, and the handling code for
IN/OUT/MOV CR8/HALT also triggers an exit to userspace, the latter will
take precedence. The singlestep will be triggered again on the next
instruction, which is the current behavior.
- Task switch instructions which would require additional handling (e.g.
the task switch bit) and are instead left alone.
- Cases where VMLAUNCH/VMRESUME do not proceed to the next instruction,
which do not trigger singlestep traps as mentioned previously.

A VMCS that is made active on more than one logical processor may become
