Originalliy, this WARN_ON is designed to detect when calling
avic_vcpu_load() on an already running vcpu in AVIC mode (i.e. the AVIC
is_running bit is set).
However, for x2AVIC, the vCPU can switch from xAPIC to x2APIC mode while in
running state, in which the avic_vcpu_load() will be called from
svm_refresh_apicv_exec_ctrl().
Therefore, remove this warning since it is no longer appropriate.

Introduce logic to (de)activate AVIC, which also allows
switching between AVIC to x2AVIC mode at runtime.
When an AVIC-enabled guest switches from APIC to x2APIC mode,
the SVM driver needs to perform the following steps:
1. Set the x2APIC mode bit for AVIC in VMCB along with the maximum
APIC ID support for each mode accodingly.
2. Disable x2APIC MSRs interception in order to allow the hardware
to virtualize x2APIC MSRs accesses.

In X2APIC mode, the Logical Destination Register is read-only,
which provides a fixed mapping between the logical and physical
APIC IDs. Therefore, there is no Logical APIC ID table in X2AVIC
and the processor uses the X2APIC ID in the backing page to create
a vCPU’s logical ID.
In addition, KVM does not support updating APIC ID in x2APIC mode,
which means AVIC does not need to handle this case.
Therefore, check x2APIC mode when handling physical and logical

Add support for Eager Page Splitting pages that are mapped by nested
MMUs. Walk through the rmap first splitting all 1GiB pages to 2MiB
pages, and then splitting all 2MiB pages to 4KiB pages.
Note, Eager Page Splitting is limited to nested MMUs as a policy rather
than due to any technical reason (the sp->role.guest_mode check could
just be deleted and Eager Page Splitting would work correctly for all
shadow MMU pages). There is really no reason to support Eager Page
Splitting for tdp_mmu=N, since such support will eventually be phased
out, and there is no current use case supporting Eager Page Splitting on
hosts where TDP is either disabled or unavailable in hardware.
Furthermore, future improvements to nested MMU scalability may diverge
the code from the legacy shadow paging implementation. These
improvements will be simpler to make if Eager Page Splitting does not
have to worry about legacy shadow paging.
Splitting huge pages mapped by nested MMUs requires dealing with some
extra complexity beyond that of the TDP MMU:
(1) The shadow MMU has a limit on the number of shadow pages that are
allowed to be allocated. So, as a policy, Eager Page Splitting
refuses to split if there are KVM_MIN_FREE_MMU_PAGES or fewer
pages available.
(2) Splitting a huge page may end up re-using an existing lower level
shadow page tables. This is unlike the TDP MMU which always allocates
new shadow page tables when splitting.
(3) When installing the lower level SPTEs, they must be added to the
rmap which may require allocating additional pte_list_desc structs.
Case (2) is especially interesting since it may require a TLB flush,
unlike the TDP MMU which can fully split huge pages without any TLB
flushes. Specifically, an existing lower level page table may point to
even lower level page tables that are not fully populated, effectively
unmapping a portion of the huge page, which requires a flush. As of
this commit, a flush is always done always after dropping the huge page
and before installing the lower level page table.
This TLB flush could instead be delayed until the MMU lock is about to be
dropped, which would batch flushes for multiple splits. However these
flushes should be rare in practice (a huge page must be aliased in
multiple SPTEs and have been split for NX Huge Pages in only some of
them). Flushing immediately is simpler to plumb and also reduces the
chances of tripping over a CPU bug (e.g. see iTLB multihit).

Splitting from Peter in Google's kernel from 2016. ]

Allow the capacity of the kvm_mmu_memory_cache struct to be chosen at
declaration time rather than being fixed for all declarations. This will
be used in a follow-up commit to declare an cache in x86 with a capacity
of 512+ objects without having to increase the capacity of all caches in

This change requires each cache now specify its capacity at runtime,
since the cache struct itself no longer has a fixed capacity known at
compile time. To protect against someone accidentally defining a
kvm_mmu_memory_cache struct directly (without the extra storage), this
commit includes a WARN_ON() in kvm_mmu_topup_memory_cache().
In order to support different capacities, this commit changes the

Before allocating a child shadow page table, all callers check
whether the parent already points to a huge page and, if so, they
drop that SPTE. This is done by drop_large_spte().
However, dropping the large SPTE is really only necessary before the
sp is installed. While the sp is returned by kvm_mmu_get_child_sp(),
installing it happens later in __link_shadow_page(). Move the call
there instead of having it in each and every caller.
To ensure that the shadow page is not linked twice if it was present,
do _not_ opportunistically make kvm_mmu_get_child_sp() idempotent:
instead, return an error value if the shadow page already existed.
This is a bit more verbose, but clearer than NULL.
Finally, now that the drop_large_spte() name is not taken anymore,
remove the two underscores in front of __drop_large_spte().

Currently KVM only zaps collapsible 4KiB SPTEs in the shadow MMU. This
is fine for now since KVM never creates intermediate huge pages during
dirty logging. In other words, KVM always replaces 1GiB pages directly
with 4KiB pages, so there is no reason to look for collapsible 2MiB
pages.
However, this will stop being true once the shadow MMU participates in
eager page splitting. During eager page splitting, each 1GiB is first
split into 2MiB pages and then those are split into 4KiB pages. The
intermediate 2MiB pages may be left behind if an error condition causes
eager page splitting to bail early.

Currently make_huge_page_split_spte() assumes execute permissions can be
granted to any 4K SPTE when splitting huge pages. This is true for the
TDP MMU but is not necessarily true for the shadow MMU, since KVM may be
shadowing a non-executable huge page.
To fix this, pass in the role of the child shadow page where the huge
page will be split and derive the execution permission from that. This
is correct because huge pages are always split with direct shadow page
and thus the shadow page role contains the correct access permissions.

Splitting huge pages requires allocating/finding shadow pages to replace
the huge page. Shadow pages are keyed, in part, off the guest access
permissions they are shadowing. For fully direct MMUs, there is no
shadowing so the access bits in the shadow page role are always ACC_ALL.
But during shadow paging, the guest can enforce whatever access
permissions it wants.
In particular, eager page splitting needs to know the permissions to use
for the subpages, but KVM cannot retrieve them from the guest page
tables because eager page splitting does not have a vCPU. Fortunately,
the guest access permissions are easy to cache whenever page faults or
FNAME(sync_page) update the shadow page tables; this is an extension of
the existing cache of the shadowed GFNs in the gfns array of the shadow
page. The access bits only take up 3 bits, which leaves 61 bits left
over for gfns, which is more than enough.
Now that the gfns array caches more information than just GFNs, rename
it to shadowed_translation.
While here, preemptively fix up the WARN_ON() that detects gfn
mismatches in direct SPs. The WARN_ON() was paired with a
pr_err_ratelimited(), which means that users could sometimes see the
WARN without the accompanying error message. Fix this by outputting the
error message as part of the WARN splat, and opportunistically make
them WARN_ONCE() because if these ever fire, they are all but guaranteed
to fire a lot and will bring down the kernel.

Specifically, pull the guts of kvm_mmu_get_page() into 2 helper
functions:
kvm_mmu_find_shadow_page() -
Walks the page hash checking for any existing mmu pages that match the
given gfn and role.
kvm_mmu_alloc_shadow_page()
Allocates and initializes an entirely new kvm_mmu_page. This currently
requries a vcpu pointer for allocation and looking up the memslot but
that will be removed in a future commit.
No functional change intended.

The quadrant is only used when gptes are 4 bytes, but
mmu_alloc_{direct,shadow}_roots() pass in a non-zero quadrant for PAE
page directories regardless. Make this less confusing by only passing in
a non-zero quadrant when it is actually necessary.

Instead of computing the shadow page role from scratch for every new
page, derive most of the information from the parent shadow page. This
eliminates the dependency on the vCPU root role to allocate shadow page
tables, and reduces the number of parameters to kvm_mmu_get_page().
Preemptively split out the role calculation to a separate function for
use in a following commit.
Note that when calculating the MMU root role, we can take
@role.passthrough, @role.direct, and @role.access directly from
@vcpu->arch.mmu->root_role. Only @role.level and @role.quadrant still
must be overridden for PAE page directories, when shadowing 32-bit
guest page tables with PAE page tables.

The "direct" argument is vcpu->arch.mmu->root_role.direct,
because unlike non-root page tables, it's impossible to have
a direct root in an indirect MMU. So just use that.

The parameter "direct" can either be true or false, and all of the
callers pass in a bool variable or true/false literal, so just use the
type bool.

Commit fb58a9c345 ("KVM: x86/mmu: Optimize MMU page cache lookup for
fully direct MMUs") skipped the unsync checks and write flood clearing
for full direct MMUs. We can extend this further to skip the checks for
all direct shadow pages. Direct shadow pages in indirect MMUs (i.e.
shadow paging) are used when shadowing a guest huge page with smaller
pages. Such direct shadow pages, like their counterparts in fully direct
MMUs, are never marked unsynced or have a non-zero write-flooding count.
Checking sp->role.direct also generates better code than checking
direct_map because, due to register pressure, direct_map has to get
shoved onto the stack and then pulled back off.

There's currently no test coverage of NX hugepages in KVM selftests, so
add a basic test to ensure that the feature works as intended.
The test creates a VM with a data slot backed with huge pages. The
memory in the data slot is filled with op-codes for the return
instruction. The guest then executes a series of accesses on the memory,
some reads, some instruction fetches. After each operation, the guest
exits and the test performs some checks on the backing page counts to
ensure that NX page splitting an reclaim work as expected.

In some cases, the NX hugepage mitigation for iTLB multihit is not
needed for all guests on a host. Allow disabling the mitigation on a
per-VM basis to avoid the performance hit of NX hugepages on trusted
workloads.
In order to disable NX hugepages on a VM, ensure that the userspace
actor has permission to reboot the system. Since disabling NX hugepages
would allow a guest to crash the system, it is similar to reboot
permissions.
Ideally, KVM would require userspace to prove it has access to KVM's
nx_huge_pages module param, e.g. so that userspace can opt out without
needing full reboot permissions. But getting access to the module param
file info is difficult because it is buried in layers of sysfs and module
glue. Requiring CAP_SYS_BOOT is sufficient for all known use cases.
