Debugging a failed VM-Enter is often like searching for a needle in a
haystack, e.g. there are over 80 consistency checks that funnel into
the "invalid control field" error code. One way to expedite debug is
to run the buggy code as an L1 guest under KVM (and pray that the
failing check is detected by KVM). However, extracting useful debug
information out of L0 KVM requires attaching a debugger to KVM and/or
modifying the source, e.g. to log which check is failing.
Make life a little less painful for VMM developers and add a tracepoint
for failed VM-Enter consistency checks. Ideally the tracepoint would
capture both what check failed and precisely why it failed, but logging
why a checked failed is difficult to do in a generic tracepoint without
resorting to invasive techniques, e.g. generating a custom string on
failure. That being said, for the vast majority of VM-Enter failures
the most difficult step is figuring out exactly what to look at, e.g.
figuring out which bit was incorrectly set in a control field is usually
not too painful once the guilty field as been identified.
To reach a happy medium between precision and ease of use, simply log
the code that detected a failed check, using a macro to execute the
check and log the trace event on failure. This approach enables tracing
arbitrary code, e.g. it's not limited to function calls or specific
formats of checks, and the changes to the existing code are minimally
invasive. A macro with a two-character name is desirable as usage of
the macro doesn't result in overly long lines or confusing alignment,
while still retaining some amount of readability. I.e. a one-character
name is a little too terse, and a three-character name results in the
contents being passed to the macro aligning with an indented line when
the macro is used an in if-statement, e.g.:
if (VCC(nested_vmx_check_long_line_one(...) &&
nested_vmx_check_long_line_two(...)))
return -EINVAL;
And that is the story of how the CC(), a.k.a. Consistency Check, macro
got its name.

Move RDMSR and WRMSR emulation into common x86 code to consolidate
nearly identical SVM and VMX code.
Note, consolidating RDMSR introduces an extra indirect call, i.e.
retpoline, due to reaching {svm,vmx}_get_msr() via kvm_x86_ops, but a
guest kernel likely has bigger problems if increasing the latency of
RDMSR VM-Exits by ~70 cycles has a measurable impact on overall VM
performance. E.g. the only recurring RDMSR VM-Exits (after booting) on
my system running Linux 5.2 in the guest are for MSR_IA32_TSC_ADJUST via
arch_cpu_idle_enter().

The PLE window tracepoint triggers even if the window is not changed,
and the wording can be a bit confusing too. One example line:
kvm_ple_window: vcpu 0: ple_window 4096 (shrink 4096)
It easily let people think of "the window now is 4096 which is
shrinked", but the truth is the value actually didn't change (4096).
Let's only dump this message if the value really changed, and we make
the message even simpler like:

Manually generate the PDPTR reserved bit mask when explicitly loading
PDPTRs. The reserved bits that are being tracked by the MMU reflect the
current paging mode, which is unlikely to be PAE paging in the vast
majority of flows that use load_pdptrs(), e.g. CR0 and CR4 emulation,
__set_sregs(), etc... This can cause KVM to incorrectly signal a bad
PDPTR, or more likely, miss a reserved bit check and subsequently fail
a VM-Enter due to a bad VMCS.GUEST_PDPTR.
Add a one off helper to generate the reserved bits instead of sharing
code across the MMU's calculations and the PDPTR emulation. The PDPTR
reserved bits are basically set in stone, and pushing a helper into
the MMU's calculation adds unnecessary complexity without improving
readability.
Oppurtunistically fix/update the comment for load_pdptrs().
Note, the buggy commit also introduced a deliberate functional change,
"Also remove bit 5-6 from rsvd_bits_mask per latest SDM.", which was
effectively (and correctly) reverted by commit cd9ae5fe47 ("KVM: x86:
Fix page-tables reserved bits"). A bit of SDM archaeology shows that
the SDM from late 2008 had a bug (likely a copy+paste error) where it
listed bits 6:5 as AVL and A for PDPTEs used for 4k entries but reserved
for 2mb entries. I.e. the SDM contradicted itself, and bits 6:5 are and
always have been reserved.

When doing x86_emulate_instruction(EMULTYPE_SKIP) interrupt shadow has to
be cleared if and only if the skipping is successful.
There are two immediate issues:
- In SVM skip_emulated_instruction() we are not zapping interrupt shadow
in case kvm_emulate_instruction(EMULTYPE_SKIP) is used to advance RIP
(!nrpip_save).
- In VMX handle_ept_misconfig() when running as a nested hypervisor we
(static_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_HYPERVISOR) case) forget to clear interrupt
shadow.
Note that we intentionally don't handle the case when the skipped
instruction is supposed to prolong the interrupt shadow ("MOV/POP SS") as
skip-emulation of those instructions should not happen under normal
circumstances.

On AMD, kvm_x86_ops->skip_emulated_instruction(vcpu) can, in theory,
fail: in !nrips case we call kvm_emulate_instruction(EMULTYPE_SKIP).
Currently, we only do printk(KERN_DEBUG) when this happens and this
is not ideal. Propagate the error up the stack.
On VMX, skip_emulated_instruction() doesn't fail, we have two call
sites calling it explicitly: handle_exception_nmi() and
handle_task_switch(), we can just ignore the result.
On SVM, we also have two explicit call sites:
svm_queue_exception() and it seems we don't need to do anything there as
we check if RIP was advanced or not. In task_switch_interception(),
however, we are better off not proceeding to kvm_task_switch() in case
skip_emulated_instruction() failed.

Commit 11752adb (locking/pvqspinlock: Implement hybrid PV queued/unfair locks)
introduces hybrid PV queued/unfair locks
- queued mode (no starvation)
- unfair mode (good performance on not heavily contended lock)
The lock waiter goes into the unfair mode especially in VMs with over-commit
vCPUs since increaing over-commitment increase the likehood that the queue
head vCPU may have been preempted and not actively spinning.
However, reschedule queue head vCPU timely to acquire the lock still can get
better performance than just depending on lock stealing in over-subscribe
scenario.
Testing on 80 HT 2 socket Xeon Skylake server, with 80 vCPUs VM 80GB RAM:

1VM 23520 25040 6%
2VM 8000 13600 70%
3VM 3100 5400 74%
The lock holder vCPU yields to the queue head vCPU when unlock, to boost queue
head vCPU which is involuntary preemption or the one which is voluntary halt
due to fail to acquire the lock after a short spin in the guest.

Dedicated instances are currently disturbed by unnecessary jitter due
to the emulated lapic timers firing on the same pCPUs where the
vCPUs reside. There is no hardware virtual timer on Intel for guest
like ARM, so both programming timer in guest and the emulated timer fires
incur vmexits. This patch tries to avoid vmexit when the emulated timer
fires, at least in dedicated instance scenario when nohz_full is enabled.
In that case, the emulated timers can be offload to the nearest busy
housekeeping cpus since APICv has been found for several years in server
processors. The guest timer interrupt can then be injected via posted interrupts,
which are delivered by the housekeeping cpu once the emulated timer fires.
The host should tuned so that vCPUs are placed on isolated physical
processors, and with several pCPUs surplus for busy housekeeping.
If disabled mwait/hlt/pause vmexits keep the vCPUs in non-root mode,
~3% redis performance benefit can be observed on Skylake server, and the
number of external interrupt vmexits drops substantially. Without patch

On VMX, KVM currently does not re-enable irqs until after it has exited
the guest context. As a result, a tick that fires in the window between
VM-Exit and guest_exit_irqoff() will be accounted as system time. While
said window is relatively small, it's large enough to be problematic in
some configurations, e.g. if VM-Exits are consistently occurring a hair
earlier than the tick irq.
Intentionally toggle irqs back off so that guest_exit_irqoff() can be
used in lieu of guest_exit() in order to avoid the save/restore of flags
in guest_exit(). On my Haswell system, "nop; cli; sti" is ~6 cycles,
versus ~28 cycles for "pushf; pop <reg>; cli; push <reg>; popf".

Some events can provide a guest with information about other guests or the
host (e.g. L3 cache stats); providing the capability to restrict access
to a "safe" set of events would limit the potential for the PMU to be used
in any side channel attacks. This change introduces a new VM ioctl that
sets an event filter. If the guest attempts to program a counter for
any blacklisted or non-whitelisted event, the kernel counter won't be
created, so any RDPMC/RDMSR will show 0 instances of that event.

This allows userspace to know which MSRs are supported by the hypervisor.
Unfortunately userspace must resort to tricks for everything except
MSR_IA32_VMX_VMFUNC (which was just added in the previous patch).
One possibility is to use the feature control MSR, which is tied to nested
VMX as well and is present on all KVM versions that support feature MSRs.

Per commit 1b6269db3f ("KVM: VMX: Handle NMIs before enabling
interrupts and preemption"), NMIs are handled directly in vmx_vcpu_run()
to "make sure we handle NMI on the current cpu, and that we don't
service maskable interrupts before non-maskable ones". The other
exceptions handled by complete_atomic_exit(), e.g. async #PF and #MC,
have similar requirements, and are located there to avoid extra VMREADs
since VMX bins hardware exceptions and NMIs into a single exit reason.
Clean up the code and eliminate the vaguely named complete_atomic_exit()
by moving the interrupts-disabled exception and NMI handling into the
existing handle_external_intrs() callback, and rename the callback to
a more appropriate name. Rename VMexit handlers throughout so that the
atomic and non-atomic counterparts have similar names.
In addition to improving code readability, this also ensures the NMI
handler is run with the host's debug registers loaded in the unlikely
event that the user is debugging NMIs. Accuracy of the last_guest_tsc
field is also improved when handling NMIs (and #MCs) as the handler
will run after updating said field.

Even when asynchronous page fault is disabled, KVM does not want to pause
the host if a guest triggers a page fault; instead it will put it into
an artificial HLT state that allows running other host processes while
allowing interrupt delivery into the guest.
However, the way this feature is triggered is a bit confusing.
First, it is not used for page faults while a nested guest is
running: but this is not an issue since the artificial halt
is completely invisible to the guest, either L1 or L2. Second,
it is used even if kvm_halt_in_guest() returns true; in this case,
the guest probably should not pay the additional latency cost of the
artificial halt, and thus we should handle the page fault in a
completely synchronous way.
By introducing a new function kvm_can_deliver_async_pf, this patch
commonizes the code that chooses whether to deliver an async page fault
(kvm_arch_async_page_not_present) and the code that chooses whether a
page fault should be handled synchronously (kvm_can_do_async_pf).

MSR IA32_MISC_ENABLE bit 18, according to SDM:
| When this bit is set to 0, the MONITOR feature flag is not set (CPUID.01H:ECX[bit 3] = 0).
| This indicates that MONITOR/MWAIT are not supported.
|
| Software attempts to execute MONITOR/MWAIT will cause #UD when this bit is 0.
|
| When this bit is set to 1 (default), MONITOR/MWAIT are supported (CPUID.01H:ECX[bit 3] = 1).
The CPUID.01H:ECX[bit 3] ought to mirror the value of the MSR bit,
CPUID.01H:ECX[bit 3] is a better guard than kvm_mwait_in_guest().
kvm_mwait_in_guest() affects the behavior of MONITOR/MWAIT, not its
guest visibility.
This patch implements toggling of the CPUID bit based on guest writes
to the MSR.

Add a wrapper to invoke kvm_arch_check_processor_compat() so that the
boilerplate ugliness of checking virtualization support on all CPUs is
hidden from the arch specific code. x86's implementation in particular
is quite heinous, as it unnecessarily propagates the out-param pattern
into kvm_x86_ops.
While the x86 specific issue could be resolved solely by changing
kvm_x86_ops, make the change for all architectures as returning a value
directly is prettier and technically more robust, e.g. s390 doesn't set
the out param, which could lead to subtle breakage in the (highly
unlikely) scenario where the out-param was not pre-initialized by the
caller.
Opportunistically annotate svm_check_processor_compat() with __init.

Advance lapic timer tries to hidden the hypervisor overhead between the
host emulated timer fires and the guest awares the timer is fired. However,
it just hidden the time between apic_timer_fn/handle_preemption_timer ->
wait_lapic_expire, instead of the real position of vmentry which is
mentioned in the orignial commit d0659d946b ("KVM: x86: add option to
advance tscdeadline hrtimer expiration"). There is 700+ cpu cycles between
the end of wait_lapic_expire and before world switch on my haswell desktop.
This patch tries to narrow the last gap(wait_lapic_expire -> world switch),
it takes the real overhead time between apic_timer_fn/handle_preemption_timer
and before world switch into consideration when adaptively tuning timer
advancement. The patch can reduce 40% latency (~1600+ cycles to ~1000+ cycles
on a haswell desktop) for kvm-unit-tests/tscdeadline_latency when testing
busy waits.

wait_lapic_expire() call was moved above guest_enter_irqoff() because of
its tracepoint, which violated the RCU extended quiescent state invoked
by guest_enter_irqoff()[1][2]. This patch simply moves the tracepoint
below guest_exit_irqoff() in vcpu_enter_guest(). Snapshot the delta before
VM-Enter, but trace it after VM-Exit. This can help us to move
wait_lapic_expire() just before vmentry in the later patch.

KVM_CAP_MAX_VCPU_ID is currently always reporting KVM_MAX_VCPU_ID on all
architectures. However, on s390x, the amount of usable CPUs is determined
during runtime - it is depending on the features of the machine the code
is running on. Since we are using the vcpu_id as an index into the SCA
structures that are defined by the hardware (see e.g. the sca_add_vcpu()
function), it is not only the amount of CPUs that is limited by the hard-
ware, but also the range of IDs that we can use.
Thus KVM_CAP_MAX_VCPU_ID must be determined during runtime on s390x, too.
So the handling of KVM_CAP_MAX_VCPU_ID has to be moved from the common
code into the architecture specific code, and on s390x we have to return
the same value here as for KVM_CAP_MAX_VCPUS.
This problem has been discovered with the kvm_create_max_vcpus selftest.
With this change applied, the selftest now passes on s390x, too.
