4cee4798a3 KVM: x86 emulator: Allow PM/VM86 switch during task switch
Task switches can switch between Protected Mode and VM86. The current
mode must be updated during the task switch emulation so that the new
segment selectors are interpreted correctly.

In order to let privilege checks succeed, rflags needs to be updated in
the vcpu struct as this causes a CPL update.

the DPL of this take gate is used for the check instead. Exceptions,

cc578287e3 KVM: Infrastructure for software and hardware based TSC rate scaling
This requires some restructuring; rather than use 'virtual_tsc_khz'
to indicate whether hardware rate scaling is in effect, we consider
each VCPU to always have a virtual TSC rate.  Instead, there is new
logic above the vendor-specific hardware scaling that decides whether
it is even necessary to use and updates all rate variables used by
common code.  This means we can simply query the virtual rate at
any point, which is needed for software rate scaling.

There is also now a threshold added to the TSC rate scaling; minor
differences and variations of measured TSC rate can accidentally
provoke rate scaling to be used when it is not needed.  Instead,
we have a tolerance variable called tsc_tolerance_ppm, which is
the maximum variation from user requested rate at which scaling
will be used.  The default is 250ppm, which is the half the
threshold for NTP adjustment, allowing for some hardware variation.

In the event that hardware rate scaling is not available, we can
kludge a bit by forcing TSC catchup to turn on when a faster than
hardware speed has been requested, but there is nothing available
yet for the reverse case; this requires a trap and emulate software
implementation for RDTSC, which is still forthcoming.

2b036c6b86 KVM: SVM: Add support for AMD's OSVW feature in guests
In some cases guests should not provide workarounds for errata even when the
physical processor is affected. For example, because of erratum 400 on family
10h processors a Linux guest will read an MSR (resulting in VMEXIT) before
going to idle in order to avoid getting stuck in a non-C0 state. This is not
necessary: HLT and IO instructions are intercepted and therefore there is no
reason for erratum 400 workaround in the guest.

This patch allows us to present a guest with certain errata as fixed,
regardless of the state of actual hardware.

1018faa6cf perf/x86/kvm: Fix Host-Only/Guest-Only counting with SVM disabled
It turned out that a performance counter on AMD does not
count at all when the GO or HO bit is set in the control
register and SVM is disabled in EFER.

This patch works around this issue by masking out the HO bit
in the performance counter control register when SVM is not
enabled.

The GO bit is not touched because it is only set when the
user wants to count in guest-mode only. So when SVM is
disabled the counter should not run at all and the
not-counting is the intended behaviour.

f1c1da2bde KVM: SVM: Keep intercepting task switching with NPT enabled
AMD processors apparently have a bug in the hardware task switching
support when NPT is enabled. If the task switch triggers a NPF, we can
get wrong EXITINTINFO along with that fault. On resume, spurious
exceptions may then be injected into the guest.

We were able to reproduce this bug when our guest triggered #SS and the
handler were supposed to run over a separate task with not yet touched
stack pages.

Work around the issue by continuing to emulate task switches even in
NPT mode.

45133ecaae KVM: SVM: Fix TSC MSR read in nested SVM
When the TSC MSR is read by an L2 guest (when L1 allowed this MSR to be
read without exit), we need to return L2's notion of the TSC, not L1's.

The current code incorrectly returned L1 TSC, because svm_get_msr() was also
used in x86.c where this was assumed, but now that these places call the new
svm_read_l1_tsc(), the MSR read can be fixed.

d5c1785d2f KVM: L1 TSC handling
KVM assumed in several places that reading the TSC MSR returns the value for
L1. This is incorrect, because when L2 is running, the correct TSC read exit
emulation is to return L2's value.

We therefore add a new x86_ops function, read_l1_tsc, to use in places that
specifically need to read the L1 TSC, NOT the TSC of the current level of
guest.

Note that one change, of one line in kvm_arch_vcpu_load, is made redundant
by a different patch sent by Zachary Amsden (and not yet applied):
kvm_arch_vcpu_load() should not read the guest TSC, and if it didn't, of
course we didn't have to change the call of kvm_get_msr() to read_l1_tsc().

e4e517b4be KVM: MMU: Do not unconditionally read PDPTE from guest memory
Architecturally, PDPTEs are cached in the PDPTRs when CR3 is reloaded.
On SVM, it is not possible to implement this, but on VMX this is possible
and was indeed implemented until nested SVM changed this to unconditionally
read PDPTEs dynamically.  This has noticable impact when running PAE guests.

Fix by changing the MMU to read PDPTRs from the cache, falling back to
reading from memory for the nested MMU.

0d460ffc09 KVM: Use __print_symbolic() for vmexit tracepoints
The vmexit tracepoints format the exit_reason to make it human-readable.
Since the exit_reason depends on the instruction set (vmx or svm),
formatting is handled with ftrace_print_symbols_seq() by referring to
the appropriate exit reason table.

However, the ftrace_print_symbols_seq() function is not meant to be used
directly in tracepoints since it does not export the formatting table
which userspace tools like trace-cmd and perf use to format traces.

In practice perf dies when formatting vmexit-related events and
trace-cmd falls back to printing the numeric value (with extra
formatting code in the kvm plugin to paper over this limitation).  Other
userspace consumers of vmexit-related tracepoints would be in similar
trouble.

To avoid significant changes to the kvm_exit tracepoint, this patch
moves the vmx and svm exit reason tables into arch/x86/kvm/trace.h and
selects the right table with __print_symbolic() depending on the
instruction set.  Note that __print_symbolic() is designed for exporting
the formatting table to userspace and allows trace-cmd and perf to work.

e097e5ffd6 KVM: Record instruction set in all vmexit tracepoints
The kvm_exit tracepoint recently added the isa argument to aid decoding
exit_reason.  The semantics of exit_reason depend on the instruction set
(vmx or svm) and the isa argument allows traces to be analyzed on other
machines.

Add the isa argument to kvm_nested_vmexit and kvm_nested_vmexit_inject
so these tracepoints can also be self-describing.

5e1746d620 KVM: nVMX: Allow setting the VMXE bit in CR4
This patch allows the guest to enable the VMXE bit in CR4, which is a
prerequisite to running VMXON.

Whether to allow setting the VMXE bit now depends on the architecture (svm
or vmx), so its checking has moved to kvm_x86_ops->set_cr4(). This function
now returns an int: If kvm_x86_ops->set_cr4() returns 1, __kvm_set_cr4()
will also return 1, and this will cause kvm_set_cr4() will throw a #GP.

Turning on the VMXE bit is allowed only when the nested VMX feature is
enabled, and turning it off is forbidden after a vmxon.

To compensate for this mismatch, we only open the NMI window in the
following exit, assuming that the IRET has by then executed; however,
this assumption is not always correct; we may exit due to a host interrupt
or page fault, without having executed the instruction.

Fix by checking for forward progress by recording and comparing the IRET's
rip.  This is somewhat of a hack, since an unchaging rip does not mean that
no forward progress has been made, but is the simplest fix for now.

2c46d2aec0 KVM: SVM: Advance instruction pointer in dr_intercept
In the dr_intercept function a new cpu-feature called
decode-assists is implemented and used when available. This
code-path does not advance the guest-rip causing the guest
to dead-loop over mov-dr instructions. This is fixed by this
patch.

893a5ab6ee KVM: SVM: Make sure KERNEL_GS_BASE is valid when loading gs_index
The gs_index loading code uses the swapgs instruction to
switch to the user gs_base temporarily. This is unsave in an
lightweight exit-path in KVM on AMD because the
KERNEL_GS_BASE MSR is switches lazily. An NMI happening in
the critical path of load_gs_index may use the wrong GS_BASE
value then leading to unpredictable behavior, e.g. a
triple-fault.

This patch fixes the issue by making sure that load_gs_index
is called only with a valid KERNEL_GS_BASE value loaded in
KVM.

dc25e89e07 KVM: SVM: copy instruction bytes from VMCB
In case of a nested page fault or an intercepted #PF newer SVM
implementations provide a copy of the faulting instruction bytes
in the VMCB.
Use these bytes to feed the instruction emulator and avoid the costly
guest instruction fetch in this case.

When the DecodeAssist feature is available, the linear address
is provided in the VMCB on INVLPG intercepts. Use it directly to
avoid any decoding and emulation.
This is only useful for shadow paging, though.
