This allows exceptions injected by the emulator to be properly delivered

In case an interrupt arrives after nested.check_events but before the
call to kvm_cpu_has_injectable_intr, we could end up enabling the interrupt
window even if the interrupt is actually going to be a vmexit. This is
useless rather than harmful, but it really complicates reasoning about
SVM's handling of the VINTR intercept. We'd like to never bother with
the VINTR intercept if V_INTR_MASKING=1 && INTERCEPT_INTR=1, because in
that case there is no interrupt window and we can just exit the nested
guest whenever we want.
This patch moves the opening of the interrupt window inside
inject_pending_event. This consolidates the check for pending
interrupt/NMI/SMI in one place, and makes KVM's usage of immediate
exits more consistent, extending it beyond just nested virtualization.
There are two functional changes here. They only affect corner cases,
but overall they simplify the inject_pending_event.
- re-injection of still-pending events will also use req_immediate_exit
instead of using interrupt-window intercepts. This should have no impact
on performance on Intel since it simply replaces an interrupt-window
or NMI-window exit for a preemption-timer exit. On AMD, which has no
equivalent of the preemption time, it may incur some overhead but an
actual effect on performance should only be visible in pathological cases.
- kvm_arch_interrupt_allowed and kvm_vcpu_has_events will return true
if an interrupt, NMI or SMI is blocked by nested_run_pending. This
makes sense because entering the VM will allow it to make progress
and deliver the event.

L2 guest hang is observed after 'exit_required' was dropped and nSVM
switched to check_nested_events() completely. The hang is a busy loop when
e.g. KVM is emulating an instruction (e.g. L2 is accessing MMIO space and
we drop to userspace). After nested_svm_vmexit() and when L1 is doing VMRUN
nested guest's RIP is not advanced so KVM goes into emulating the same
instruction which caused nested_svm_vmexit() and the loop continues.
nested_svm_vmexit() is not new, however, with check_nested_events() we're
now calling it later than before. In case by that time KVM has modified
register state we may pick stale values from VMCB when trying to save
nested guest state to nested VMCB.
nVMX code handles this case correctly: sync_vmcs02_to_vmcs12() called from
nested_vmx_vmexit() does e.g 'vmcs12->guest_rip = kvm_rip_read(vcpu)' and
this ensures KVM-made modifications are preserved. Do the same for nSVM.
Generally, nested_vmx_vmexit()/nested_svm_vmexit() need to pick up all
nested guest state modifications done by KVM after vmexit. It would be
great to find a way to express this in a way which would not require to
manually track these changes, e.g. nested_{vmcb,vmcs}_get_field().

The async page fault injection into kernel space creates more problems than
it solves. The host has absolutely no knowledge about the state of the
guest if the fault happens in CPL0. The only restriction for the host is
interrupt disabled state. If interrupts are enabled in the guest then the
exception can hit arbitrary code. The HALT based wait in non-preemotible
code is a hacky replacement for a proper hypercall.
For the ongoing work to restrict instrumentation and make the RCU idle
interaction well defined the required extra work for supporting async
pagefault in CPL0 is just not justified and creates complexity for a
dubious benefit.
The CPL3 injection is well defined and does not cause any issues as it is
more or less the same as a regular page fault from CPL3.

While working on the entry consolidation I stumbled over the KVM async page
fault handler and kvm_async_pf_task_wait() in particular. It took me a
while to realize that the randomly sprinkled around rcu_irq_enter()/exit()
invocations are just cargo cult programming. Several patches "fixed" RCU
splats by curing the symptoms without noticing that the code is flawed
from a design perspective.
The main problem is that this async injection is not based on a proper
handshake mechanism and only respects the minimal requirement, i.e. the
guest is not in a state where it has interrupts disabled.
Aside of that the actual code is a convoluted one fits it all swiss army
knife. It is invoked from different places with different RCU constraints:
1) Host side:
vcpu_enter_guest()
kvm_x86_ops->handle_exit()
kvm_handle_page_fault()
kvm_async_pf_task_wait()
The invocation happens from fully preemptible context.
2) Guest side:
The async page fault interrupted:
a) user space
b) preemptible kernel code which is not in a RCU read side
critical section
c) non-preemtible kernel code or a RCU read side critical section
or kernel code with CONFIG_PREEMPTION=n which allows not to
differentiate between #2b and #2c.
RCU is watching for:
#1 The vCPU exited and current is definitely not the idle task
#2a The #PF entry code on the guest went through enter_from_user_mode()
which reactivates RCU
#2b There is no preemptible, interrupts enabled code in the kernel
which can run with RCU looking away. (The idle task is always
non preemptible).
I.e. all schedulable states (#1, #2a, #2b) do not need any of this RCU
voodoo at all.
In #2c RCU is eventually not watching, but as that state cannot schedule
anyway there is no point to worry about it so it has to invoke
rcu_irq_enter() before running that code. This can be optimized, but this
will be done as an extra step in course of the entry code consolidation
work.
So the proper solution for this is to:
- Split kvm_async_pf_task_wait() into schedule and halt based waiting
interfaces which share the enqueueing code.
- Add comments (condensed form of this changelog) to spare others the
time waste and pain of reverse engineering all of this with the help of
uncomprehensible changelogs and code history.
- Invoke kvm_async_pf_task_wait_schedule() from kvm_handle_page_fault(),
user mode and schedulable kernel side async page faults (#1, #2a, #2b)
- Invoke kvm_async_pf_task_wait_halt() for the non schedulable kernel
case (#2c).
For this case also remove the rcu_irq_exit()/enter() pair around the
halt as it is just a pointless exercise:
- vCPUs can VMEXIT at any random point and can be scheduled out for
an arbitrary amount of time by the host and this is not any
different except that it voluntary triggers the exit via halt.
- The interrupted context could have RCU watching already. So the
rcu_irq_exit() before the halt is not gaining anything aside of
confusing the reader. Claiming that this might prevent RCU stalls
is just an illusion.

KVM overloads #PF to indicate two types of not-actually-page-fault
events. Right now, the KVM guest code intercepts them by modifying
the IDT and hooking the #PF vector. This makes the already fragile
fault code even harder to understand, and it also pollutes call
traces with async_page_fault and do_async_page_fault for normal page
faults.
Clean it up by moving the logic into do_page_fault() using a static
branch. This gets rid of the platform trap_init override mechanism
completely.

- Low level entry code can be a fragile beast, especially on x86.
- With NO_HZ_FULL RCU state needs to be established before using it.

that no unsafe functions are invoked.
Add the .noinstr.text section and the noinstr attribute to mark

These are used to mark code inside a noinstr function which calls

The instrumentation markers are only active when CONFIG_DEBUG_ENTRY is

KVM stores the gfn in MMIO SPTEs as a caching optimization. These are split
in two parts, as in "[high 11111 low]", to thwart any attempt to use these bits
in an L1TF attack. This works as long as there are 5 free bits between
MAXPHYADDR and bit 50 (inclusive), leaving bit 51 free so that the MMIO
access triggers a reserved-bit-set page fault.
The bit positions however were computed wrongly for AMD processors that have
encryption support. In this case, x86_phys_bits is reduced (for example
from 48 to 43, to account for the C bit at position 47 and four bits used
internally to store the SEV ASID and other stuff) while x86_cache_bits in
would remain set to 48, and _all_ bits between the reduced MAXPHYADDR
and bit 51 are set. Then low_phys_bits would also cover some of the
bits that are set in the shadow_mmio_value, terribly confusing the gfn
caching mechanism.
To fix this, avoid splitting gfns as long as the processor does not have
the L1TF bug (which includes all AMD processors). When there is no
splitting, low_phys_bits can be set to the reduced MAXPHYADDR removing
the overlap. This fixes "npt=0" operation on EPYC processors.

means the VCPU polled until a virtual interrupt was delivered. "fail"

To avoid touching every arch's kvm_vcpu_stat struct, only update and

This patch implements a fastpath for the preemption timer vmexit. The vmexit
can be handled quickly so it can be performed with interrupts off and going
back directly to the guest.
Testing on SKX Server.
cyclictest in guest(w/o mwait exposed, adaptive advance lapic timer is default -1):
5540.5ns -> 4602ns 17%
kvm-unit-test/vmexit.flat:
w/o avanced timer:
tscdeadline_immed: 3028.5 -> 2494.75 17.6%
tscdeadline: 5765.7 -> 5285 8.3%
w/ adaptive advance timer default -1:
tscdeadline_immed: 3123.75 -> 2583 17.3%
tscdeadline: 4663.75 -> 4537 2.7%

This patch implements a fast path for emulation of writes to the TSCDEADLINE
MSR. Besides shortcutting various housekeeping tasks in the vCPU loop,
the fast path can also deliver the timer interrupt directly without going
through KVM_REQ_PENDING_TIMER because it runs in vCPU context.

Replace the ad hoc test in vmx_set_hv_timer with a test in the caller,
start_hv_timer. This test is not Intel-specific and would be duplicated
when introducing the fast path for the TSC deadline MSR.

While optimizing posted-interrupt delivery especially for the timer
fastpath scenario, I measured kvm_x86_ops.deliver_posted_interrupt()
to introduce substantial latency because the processor has to perform
all vmentry tasks, ack the posted interrupt notification vector,
read the posted-interrupt descriptor etc.
This is not only slow, it is also unnecessary when delivering an
interrupt to the current CPU (as is the case for the LAPIC timer) because
PIR->IRR and IRR->RVI synchronization is already performed on vmentry
Therefore skip kvm_vcpu_trigger_posted_interrupt in this case, and
instead do vmx_sync_pir_to_irr() on the EXIT_FASTPATH_REENTER_GUEST
fastpath as well.

Adds a fastpath_t typedef since enum lines are a bit long, and replace
EXIT_FASTPATH_SKIP_EMUL_INS with two new exit_fastpath_completion enum values.
- EXIT_FASTPATH_EXIT_HANDLED kvm will still go through it's full run loop,
but it would skip invoking the exit handler.
- EXIT_FASTPATH_REENTER_GUEST complete fastpath, guest can be re-entered
without invoking the exit handler or going
back to vcpu_run

Introduce kvm_vcpu_exit_request() helper, we need to check some conditions
before enter guest again immediately, we skip invoking the exit handler and
go through full run loop if complete fastpath but there is stuff preventing
we enter guest again immediately.

Use __print_flags() to display the names of VMX flags in VM-Exit traces
and strip the flags when printing the basic exit reason, e.g. so that a
failed VM-Entry due to invalid guest state gets recorded as
"INVALID_STATE FAILED_VMENTRY" instead of "0x80000021".
Opportunstically fix misaligned variables in the kvm_exit and
kvm_nested_vmexit_inject tracepoints.

Introduce generic fastpath handler to handle MSR fastpath, VMX-preemption
timer fastpath etc; move it after vmx_complete_interrupts() in order to
catch events delivered to the guest, and abort the fast path in later
patches. While at it, move the kvm_exit tracepoint so that it is printed
for fastpath vmexits as well.
There is no observed performance effect for the IPI fastpath after this patch.
