Fix a long-standing bug that causes KVM to return 0 instead of -E2BIG
when userspace's array is insufficiently sized.
This technically breaks backwards compatibility, e.g. a userspace with a
hardcoded cpuid->nent could theoretically be broken as it would see an
error instead of success if cpuid->nent is less than the number of
entries required to fully enumerate the host CPU. But, the lowest known
cpuid->nent hardcoded by a VMM is 100 (lkvm and selftests), and the
limit for current processors on Intel and AMD is well under a 100. E.g.
Intel's Icelake server with all the bells and whistles tops out at ~60
entries (variable due to SGX sub-leafs), and AMD's CPUID documentation
allows for less than 50. CPUID 0xD sub-leaves on current kernels are
capped by the value of KVM_SUPPORTED_XCR0, and therefore so many subleaves
cannot have appeared on current kernels.
Note, while the Fixes: tag is accurate with respect to the immediate
bug, it's likely that similar bugs in KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID existed
prior to the refactoring, e.g. Qemu contains a workaround for the broken
KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID behavior that predates the buggy commit by over
two years. The Qemu workaround is also likely the main reason the bug
has gone unreported for so long.

kvm: work around supported cpuid ioctl() brokenness

Use the calculated role as-is when propagating it to kvm_mmu.mmu_role,
i.e. stop masking off meaningful fields. The concept of masking off
fields came from kvm_mmu_pte_write(), which (correctly) ignores certain
fields when comparing kvm_mmu_page.role against kvm_mmu.mmu_role, e.g.
the current mmu's access and level have no relation to a shadow page's
access and level.
Masking off the level causes problems for 5-level paging, e.g. CR4.LA57
has its own redundant flag in the extended role, and nested EPT would
need a similar hack to support 5-level paging for L2.
Opportunistically rework the mask for kvm_mmu_pte_write() to define the
fields that should be ignored as opposed to the fields that should be
checked, i.e. make it opt-out instead of opt-in so that new fields are
automatically picked up. While doing so, stop ignoring "direct". The
field is effectively ignored anyways because kvm_mmu_pte_write() is only
reached with an indirect mmu and the loop only walks indirect shadow
pages, but double checking "direct" literally costs nothing.

if the CPU is in the guest (L2 from L1's perspective) when IRQs trigger
VM-Exit.
The new check percolates up to kvm_vcpu_ready_for_interrupt_injection()
and thus vcpu_run(), and so KVM will exit to userspace if userspace has
requested an interrupt window (to inject an IRQ into L1).
Remove the @external_intr param from vmx_check_nested_events(), which is
actually an indicator that userspace wants an interrupt window, e.g.
it's named @req_int_win further up the stack. Injecting a VM-Exit into
L1 to try and bounce out to L0 userspace is all kinds of broken and is
no longer necessary.
Remove the hack in nested_vmx_vmexit() that attempted to workaround the
breakage in vmx_check_nested_events() by only filling interrupt info if
there's an actual interrupt pending. The hack actually made things
worse because it caused KVM to _never_ fill interrupt info when the
LAPIC resides in userspace (kvm_cpu_has_interrupt() queries
interrupt.injected, which is always cleared by prepare_vmcs12() before
reaching the hack in nested_vmx_vmexit()).

manual dirty log protect as well, which can reduce the mmu_lock

2. Only write protect the huge pages
3. KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG returns the dirty bitmap info
4. KVM_CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG will clear D-bit for each of the leaf level

Reuse the current root when possible instead of grabbing a different
root from the array of cached roots. Doing so avoids unnecessary MMU
switches and also fixes a quirk where KVM can't reuse roots without
creating multiple roots since the cache is a victim cache, i.e. roots
are added to the cache when they're "evicted", not when they are
created. The quirk could be fixed by adding roots to the cache on
creation, but that would reduce the effective size of the cache as one
of its entries would be burned to track the current root.
Reusing the current root is especially helpful for nested virt as the
current root is almost always usable for the "new" MMU on nested

Ideally, moving the sync_dirty_log() call would be done in a separate

temporarily break s390's ordering. Making the move in a preparatory
patch would be functionally correct, but would create an odd scenario
where the moved sync_dirty_log() would operate on a "different" memslot

memslot move is committed, and paves the way for removing the funky code
in kvm_free_memslot() that conditionally frees structures based on its
@dont param.

Drop the "const" attribute from @old in kvm_arch_commit_memory_region()
to allow arch specific code to free arch specific resources in the old
memslot without having to cast away the attribute. Freeing resources in
kvm_arch_commit_memory_region() paves the way for simplifying
kvm_free_memslot() by eliminating the last usage of its @dont param.

Split out the core functionality of setting a memslot into a separate
helper in preparation for moving memslot deletion into its own routine.

Replace a big pile o' gotos with returns to make it more obvious what
error code is being returned, and to prepare for refactoring the
functional, i.e. post-checks, portion of __kvm_set_memory_region().

Explicitly free an allocated-but-unused dirty bitmap instead of relying
on kvm_free_memslot() if an error occurs in __kvm_set_memory_region().
There is no longer a need to abuse kvm_free_memslot() to free arch
specific resources as arch specific code is now called only after the
common flow is guaranteed to succeed. Arch code can still fail, but
it's responsible for its own cleanup in that case.
Eliminating the error path's abuse of kvm_free_memslot() paves the way
for simplifying kvm_free_memslot(), i.e. dropping its @dont param.

Remove kvm_arch_create_memslot() now that all arch implementations are
effectively nops. Removing kvm_arch_create_memslot() eliminates the
possibility for arch specific code to allocate memory prior to setting
a memslot, which sets the stage for simplifying kvm_free_memslot().

Allocate the various metadata structures associated with a new memslot
during kvm_arch_prepare_memory_region(), which paves the way for
removing kvm_arch_create_memslot() altogether. Moving x86's memory
allocation only changes the order of kernel memory allocations between
x86 and common KVM code.
