kvm_clear_exception_queue() should clear pending exception.
This also includes exceptions which were only marked pending but not
yet injected. This is because exception.pending is used for both L1
and L2 to determine if an exception should be raised to guest.
Note that an exception which is pending but not yet injected will
be raised again once the guest will be resumed.
Consider the following scenario:
1) L0 KVM with ignore_msrs=false.
2) L1 prepare vmcs12 with the following:
a) No intercepts on MSR (MSR_BITMAP exist and is filled with 0).
b) No intercept for #GP.
c) vmx-preemption-timer is configured.
3) L1 enters into L2.
4) L2 reads an unhandled MSR that exists in MSR_BITMAP
(such as 0x1fff).
L2 RDMSR could be handled as described below:
1) L2 exits to L0 on RDMSR and calls handle_rdmsr().
2) handle_rdmsr() calls kvm_inject_gp() which sets
KVM_REQ_EVENT, exception.pending=true and exception.injected=false.
3) vcpu_enter_guest() consumes KVM_REQ_EVENT and calls
inject_pending_event() which calls vmx_check_nested_events()
which sees that exception.pending=true but
nested_vmx_check_exception() returns 0 and therefore does nothing at
this point. However let's assume it later sees vmx-preemption-timer
expired and therefore exits from L2 to L1 by calling
nested_vmx_vmexit().
4) nested_vmx_vmexit() calls prepare_vmcs12()
which calls vmcs12_save_pending_event() but it does nothing as
exception.injected is false. Also prepare_vmcs12() calls
kvm_clear_exception_queue() which does nothing as
exception.injected is already false.
5) We now return from vmx_check_nested_events() with 0 while still
having exception.pending=true!
6) Therefore inject_pending_event() continues
and we inject L2 exception to L1!...
This commit will fix above issue by changing step (4) to
clear exception.pending in kvm_clear_exception_queue().

Some reserved pages, such as those from NVDIMM DAX devices, are not
for MMIO, and can be mapped with cached memory type for better
performance. However, the above check misconceives those pages as
MMIO. Because KVM maps MMIO pages with UC memory type, the
performance of guest accesses to those pages would be harmed.
Therefore, we check the host memory type in addition and only treat
UC/UC-/WC pages as MMIO.

This part of Secure Encrypted Virtualization (SEV) patch series focuses on KVM
changes required to create and manage SEV guests.
SEV is an extension to the AMD-V architecture which supports running encrypted
virtual machine (VMs) under the control of a hypervisor. Encrypted VMs have their
pages (code and data) secured such that only the guest itself has access to
unencrypted version. Each encrypted VM is associated with a unique encryption key;
if its data is accessed to a different entity using a different key the encrypted
guest's data will be incorrectly decrypted, leading to unintelligible data.
This security model ensures that hypervisor will no longer able to inspect or
alter any guest code or data.
The key management of this feature is handled by a separate processor known as
the AMD Secure Processor (AMD-SP) which is present on AMD SOCs. The SEV Key
Management Specification (see below) provides a set of commands which can be
used by hypervisor to load virtual machine keys through the AMD-SP driver.
The patch series adds a new ioctl in KVM driver (KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_OP). The
ioctl will be used by qemu to issue SEV guest-specific commands defined in Key
Management Specification.

The testcase sets a watchpoint (with perf_event_open) on a buffer that is
passed to timer_create() as the struct sigevent argument. In timer_create(),
copy_from_user()'s rep movsb triggers the BP. The testcase also sets
the debug registers for the guest.
However, KVM only restores host debug registers when the host has active
watchpoints, which triggers a race condition when running the testcase with
multiple threads. The guest's DR6.BS bit can escape to the host before
another thread invokes timer_create(), and do_debug() complains.
The fix is to respect do_debug()'s dr6 invariant when leaving KVM.

Remote TLB flush does a busy wait which is fine in bare-metal
scenario. But with-in the guest, the vcpus might have been pre-empted or
blocked. In this scenario, the initator vcpu would end up busy-waiting
for a long amount of time; it also consumes CPU unnecessarily to wake
up the target of the shootdown.
This patch set adds support for KVM's new paravirtualized TLB flush;
remote TLB flush does not wait for vcpus that are sleeping, instead
KVM will flush the TLB as soon as the vCPU starts running again.
The improvement is clearly visible when the host is overcommitted; in this
case, the PV TLB flush (in addition to avoiding the wait on the main CPU)
prevents preempted vCPUs from stealing precious execution time from the
running ones.
Testing on a Xeon Gold 6142 2.6GHz 2 sockets, 32 cores, 64 threads,
so 64 pCPUs, and each VM is 64 vCPUs.

Some architectures support asynchronous vcpu ioctls which cannot call
vcpu_load() or take the vcpu->mutex, because that would prevent
concurrent execution with a running VCPU, which is the intended purpose
of these ioctls, for example because they inject interrupts.
We repeat the separate checks for these specifics in the architecture

As we're about to call vcpu_load() from architecture-specific
implementations of the KVM vcpu ioctls, but yet we access data
structures protected by the vcpu->mutex in the generic code, factor
this logic out from vcpu_load().
x86 is the only architecture which calls vcpu_load() outside of the main
vcpu ioctl function, and these calls will no longer take the vcpu mutex
following this patch. However, with the exception of
kvm_arch_vcpu_postcreate (see below), the callers are either in the
creation or destruction path of the VCPU, which means there cannot be
any concurrent access to the data structure, because the file descriptor
is not yet accessible, or is already gone.
kvm_arch_vcpu_postcreate makes the newly created vcpu potentially
accessible by other in-kernel threads through the kvm->vcpus array, and
we therefore take the vcpu mutex in this case directly.

The check was added in some iteration while trying to fix a reported OS
X on Core 2 bug, but that bug is elsewhere.
The comment is misleading because the guest can call MWAIT with ECX = 0
even if we enforce CPUID5_ECX_INTERRUPT_BREAK; the call would have the
exactly the same effect as if the host didn't have the feature.
A problem is that a QEMU feature exposes CPUID5_ECX_INTERRUPT_BREAK on
CPUs that do not support it. Removing the check changes behavior on
last Pentium 4 lines (Presler, Dempsey, and Tulsa, which had VMX and
MONITOR while missing INTERRUPT_BREAK) when running a guest OS that uses
MWAIT without checking for its presence (QEMU doesn't expose MONITOR).
The only known OS that ignores the MONITOR flag is old Mac OS X and we
allowed it to bug on Core 2 (MWAIT used to throw #UD and only that OS
noticed), so we can save another 20 lines letting it bug on even older
CPUs. Alternatively, we can return MWAIT exiting by default and let
userspace toggle it.

The array audit_point_name is local to the source and does not need to
be in global scope, so make it static.
Cleans up sparse warning:
arch/x86/kvm/mmu_audit.c:22:12: warning: symbol 'audit_point_name' was
not declared. Should it be static?

This is encoded as F3 0F C7 /7 with a register argument. The register
argument is the second array in the group9 GroupDual, while F3 is the
fourth element of a Prefix.

UMIP can be emulated almost perfectly on Intel processor by enabling
descriptor-table exits. SMSW does not cause a vmexit and hence it
cannot be changed into a #GP fault, but all in all it's the most
"innocuous" of the unprivileged instructions that UMIP blocks.
In fact, Linux is _also_ emulating SMSW instructions on behalf of the
program that executes them, because some 16-bit programs expect to use
SMSW to detect vm86 mode, so this is an even smaller issue.

The User-Mode Instruction Prevention feature present in recent Intel
processor prevents a group of instructions (sgdt, sidt, sldt, smsw, and
str) from being executed with CPL > 0. Otherwise, a general protection
fault is issued.
UMIP instructions in general are also able to trigger vmexits, so we can
actually emulate UMIP on older processors. This commit sets up the
infrastructure so that kvm-intel.ko and kvm-amd.ko can set the UMIP
feature bit for CPUID even if the feature is not actually available
in hardware.

Add the CPUID bits, make the CR4.UMIP bit not reserved anymore, and
add UMIP support for instructions that are already emulated by KVM.

Add a line for the total number of events and current average at the
bottom of the body.
Note that both values exclude child trace events. I.e. if drilldown is
activated via interactive command 'x', only the totals are accounted, or
we'd be counting these twice (see previous commit "tools/kvm_stat: fix
child trace events accounting").

Unhandled arguments, which could easily include typos, are simply
ignored. We should be strict to avoid undetected typos.
To reproduce start kvm_stat with an extra argument, e.g.
'kvm_stat -d bnuh5ol' and note that this will actually work.

Errors while parsing the '-g' command line argument result in display of
usage information prior to the error message. This is a bit confusing,
as the command line is syntactically correct.
To reproduce, run 'kvm_stat -g' and specify a non-existing or inactive
guest.
