Add helpers to query which of the (two) supported PT modes is active.
The primary motivation is to help document that there is a third PT mode
(host-only) that's currently not supported by KVM. As is, it's not
obvious that PT_MODE_SYSTEM != !PT_MODE_HOST_GUEST and vice versa, e.g.
that "pt_mode == PT_MODE_SYSTEM" and "pt_mode != PT_MODE_HOST_GUEST" are
two distinct checks.

Return true for vmx_interrupt_allowed() if the vCPU is in L2 and L1 has
external interrupt exiting enabled. IRQs are never blocked in hardware
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()).

Since commit 5f3d45e7f2 ("kvm/x86: add support for
MONITOR_TRAP_FLAG"), KVM has allowed an L1 guest to use the monitor trap
flag processor-based execution control for its L2 guest. KVM simply
forwards any MTF VM-exits to the L1 guest, which works for normal
instruction execution.
However, when KVM needs to emulate an instruction on the behalf of an L2
guest, the monitor trap flag is not emulated. Add the necessary logic to
kvm_skip_emulated_instruction() to synthesize an MTF VM-exit to L1 upon
instruction emulation for L2.

When apicv is disabled on a vCPU (e.g. by enabling KVM_CAP_HYPERV_SYNIC*),
nothing happens to VMX MSRs on the already existing vCPUs, however, all new
ones are created with PIN_BASED_POSTED_INTR filtered out. This is very
confusing and results in the following picture inside the guest:
$ rdmsr -ax 0x48d
ff00000016
7f00000016
7f00000016
7f00000016
This is observed with QEMU and 4-vCPU guest: QEMU creates vCPU0, does
KVM_CAP_HYPERV_SYNIC2 and then creates the remaining three.
L1 hypervisor may only check CPU0's controls to find out what features
are available and it will be very confused later. Switch to setting
PIN_BASED_POSTED_INTR control based on global 'enable_apicv' setting.

According to section "Checks on Guest Control Registers, Debug Registers, and

of nested guests:
If the "load debug controls" VM-entry control is 1, bits 63:32 in the DR7
field must be 0.
In KVM, GUEST_DR7 is set prior to the vmcs02 VM-entry by kvm_set_dr() and the
latter synthesizes a #GP if any bit in the high dword in the former is set.
Hence this field needs to be checked in software.

Remove the CONFIG_X86_64 condition from the low level non-canonical
helpers to effectively enable non-canonical checks on 32-bit KVM.
Non-canonical checks are performed by hardware if the CPU *supports*
64-bit mode, whether or not the CPU is actually in 64-bit mode is
irrelevant.
For the most part, skipping non-canonical checks on 32-bit KVM is ok-ish
because 32-bit KVM always (hopefully) drops bits 63:32 of whatever value
it's checking before propagating it to hardware, and architecturally,
the expected behavior for the guest is a bit of a grey area since the
vCPU itself doesn't support 64-bit mode. I.e. a 32-bit KVM guest can
observe the missed checks in several paths, e.g. INVVPID and VM-Enter,
but it's debatable whether or not the missed checks constitute a bug
because technically the vCPU doesn't support 64-bit mode.
The primary motivation for enabling the non-canonical checks is defense
in depth. As mentioned above, a guest can trigger a missed check via
INVVPID or VM-Enter. INVVPID is straightforward as it takes a 64-bit
virtual address as part of its 128-bit INVVPID descriptor and fails if
the address is non-canonical, even if INVVPID is executed in 32-bit PM.
Nested VM-Enter is a bit more convoluted as it requires the guest to
write natural width VMCS fields via memory accesses and then VMPTRLD the
VMCS, but it's still possible. In both cases, KVM is saved from a true
bug only because its flows that propagate values to hardware (correctly)
take "unsigned long" parameters and so drop bits 63:32 of the bad value.
Explicitly performing the non-canonical checks makes it less likely that
a bad value will be propagated to hardware, e.g. in the INVVPID case,
if __invvpid() didn't implicitly drop bits 63:32 then KVM would BUG() on
the resulting unexpected INVVPID failure due to hardware rejecting the
non-canonical address.
The only downside to enabling the non-canonical checks is that it adds a
relatively small amount of overhead, but the affected flows are not hot
paths, i.e. the overhead is negligible.
Note, KVM technically could gate the non-canonical checks on 32-bit KVM
with static_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_LM), but on bare metal that's an even
bigger waste of code for everyone except the 0.00000000000001% of the
population running on Yonah, and nested 32-bit on 64-bit already fudges
things with respect to 64-bit CPU behavior.

As pointed out by Boris, the defines for bits in IA32_FEATURE_CONTROL
are quite a mouthful, especially the VMX bits which must differentiate
between enabling VMX inside and outside SMX (TXT) operation. Rename the
MSR and its bit defines to abbreviate FEATURE_CONTROL as FEAT_CTL to
make them a little friendlier on the eyes.
Arguably, the MSR itself should keep the full IA32_FEATURE_CONTROL name
to match Intel's SDM, but a future patch will add a dedicated Kconfig,
file and functions for the MSR. Using the full name for those assets is
rather unwieldy, so bite the bullet and use IA32_FEAT_CTL so that its
nomenclature is consistent throughout the kernel.
Opportunistically, fix a few other annoyances with the defines:
- Relocate the bit defines so that they immediately follow the MSR
define, e.g. aren't mistaken as belonging to MISC_FEATURE_CONTROL.
- Add whitespace around the block of feature control defines to make
it clear they're all related.
- Use BIT() instead of manually encoding the bit shift.
- Use "VMX" instead of "VMXON" to match the SDM.
- Append "_ENABLED" to the LMCE (Local Machine Check Exception) bit to
be consistent with the kernel's verbiage used for all other feature
control bits. Note, the SDM refers to the LMCE bit as LMCE_ON,
likely to differentiate it from IA32_MCG_EXT_CTL.LMCE_EN. Ignore
the (literal) one-off usage of _ON, the SDM is simply "wrong".

According to Intel SDM section 28.3.3.3/28.3.3.4 Guidelines for Use
of the INVVPID/INVEPT Instruction, the hypervisor needs to execute
INVVPID/INVEPT X in case CPU executes VMEntry with VPID/EPTP X and
either: "Virtualize APIC accesses" VM-execution control was changed
from 0 to 1, OR the value of apic_access_page was changed.
In the nested case, the burden falls on L1, unless L0 enables EPT in
vmcs02 but L1 enables neither EPT nor VPID in vmcs12. For this reason
prepare_vmcs02() and load_vmcs12_host_state() have special code to
request a TLB flush in case L1 does not use EPT but it uses
"virtualize APIC accesses".
This special case however is not necessary. On a nested vmentry the
physical TLB will already be flushed except if all the following apply:
* L0 uses VPID
* L1 uses VPID
* L0 can guarantee TLB entries populated while running L1 are tagged
differently than TLB entries populated while running L2.
If the first condition is false, the processor will flush the TLB
on vmentry to L2. If the second or third condition are false,
prepare_vmcs02() will request KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH. However, even
if both are true, no extra TLB flush is needed to handle the APIC
access page:
* if L1 doesn't use VPID, the second condition doesn't hold and the
TLB will be flushed anyway.
* if L1 uses VPID, it has to flush the TLB itself with INVVPID and
section 28.3.3.3 doesn't apply to L0.
* even INVEPT is not needed because, if L0 uses EPT, it uses different
EPTP when running L2 than L1 (because guest_mode is part of mmu-role).
In this case SDM section 28.3.3.4 doesn't apply.
Similarly, examining nested_vmx_vmexit()->load_vmcs12_host_state(),
one could note that L0 won't flush TLB only in cases where SDM sections
28.3.3.3 and 28.3.3.4 don't apply. In particular, if L0 uses different
VPIDs for L1 and L2 (i.e. vmx->vpid != vmx->nested.vpid02), section
28.3.3.3 doesn't apply.
Thus, remove this flush from prepare_vmcs02() and nested_vmx_vmexit().
Side-note: This patch can be viewed as removing parts of commit
fb6c819843 ("kvm: vmx: Flush TLB when the APIC-access address changes”)
that is not relevant anymore since commit
1313cc2bd8 ("kvm: mmu: Add guest_mode to kvm_mmu_page_role”).
i.e. The first commit assumes that if L0 use EPT and L1 doesn’t use EPT,
then L0 will use same EPTP for both L0 and L1. Which indeed required
L0 to execute INVEPT before entering L2 guest. This assumption is
not true anymore since when guest_mode was added to mmu-role.

vmcs->apic_access_page is simply a token that the hypervisor puts into
the PFN of a 4KB EPTE (or PTE if using shadow-paging) that triggers
APIC-access VMExit or APIC virtualization logic whenever a CPU running
in VMX non-root mode read/write from/to this PFN.
As every write either triggers an APIC-access VMExit or write is
performed on vmcs->virtual_apic_page, the PFN pointed to by
vmcs->apic_access_page should never actually be touched by CPU.
Therefore, there is no need to mark vmcs02->apic_access_page as dirty
after unpin it on L2->L1 emulated VMExit or when L1 exit VMX operation.

Since commit 1313cc2bd8 ("kvm: mmu: Add guest_mode to kvm_mmu_page_role"),
guest_mode was added to mmu-role and therefore if L0 use EPT, it will
always run L1 and L2 with different EPTP. i.e. EPTP01!=EPTP02.
Because TLB entries are tagged with EP4TA, KVM can assume
TLB entries populated while running L2 are tagged differently
than TLB entries populated while running L1.
Therefore, update nested_has_guest_tlb_tag() to consider if
L0 use EPT instead of if L1 use EPT.

The L1 hypervisor may include the IA32_TIME_STAMP_COUNTER MSR in the
vmcs12 MSR VM-exit MSR-store area as a way of determining the highest
TSC value that might have been observed by L2 prior to VM-exit. The
current implementation does not capture a very tight bound on this
value. To tighten the bound, add the IA32_TIME_STAMP_COUNTER MSR to the
vmcs02 VM-exit MSR-store area whenever it appears in the vmcs12 VM-exit
MSR-store area. When L0 processes the vmcs12 VM-exit MSR-store area
during the emulation of an L2->L1 VM-exit, special-case the
IA32_TIME_STAMP_COUNTER MSR, using the value stored in the vmcs02
VM-exit MSR-store area to derive the value to be stored in the vmcs12
VM-exit MSR-store area.

The "load IA32_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL" bit for VM-entry and VM-exit should
only be exposed to the guest if IA32_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL is a valid MSR.
Create a new helper to allow pmu_refresh() to update the VM-Entry and

The existing implementation for loading the IA32_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL MSR
on VM-exit was incorrect, as the next call to atomic_switch_perf_msrs()
could cause this value to be overwritten. Instead, call kvm_set_msr()
which will allow atomic_switch_perf_msrs() to correctly set the values.
Define a macro, SET_MSR_OR_WARN(), to set the MSR with kvm_set_msr()
and WARN on failure.

When L1 don't use TPR-Shadow to run L2, L0 configures vmcs02 without
TPR-Shadow and install intercepts on CR8 access (load and store).
If L1 do not intercept L2 CR8 access, L0 intercepts on those accesses
will emulate load/store on L1's LAPIC TPR. If in this case L2 lowers
TPR such that there is now an injectable interrupt to L1,
apic_update_ppr() will request a KVM_REQ_EVENT which will trigger a call
to update_cr8_intercept() to update TPR-Threshold to highest pending IRR
priority.
However, this update to TPR-Threshold is done while active vmcs is
vmcs02 instead of vmcs01. Thus, when later at some point L0 will
emulate an exit from L2 to L1, L1 will still run with high
TPR-Threshold. This will result in every VMEntry to L1 to immediately
exit on TPR_BELOW_THRESHOLD and continue to do so infinitely until
some condition will cause KVM_REQ_EVENT to be set.
(Note that TPR_BELOW_THRESHOLD exit handler do not set KVM_REQ_EVENT
until apic_update_ppr() will notice a new injectable interrupt for PPR)
To fix this issue, change update_cr8_intercept() such that if L2 lowers
L1's TPR in a way that requires to lower L1's TPR-Threshold, save update
to TPR-Threshold and apply it to vmcs01 when L0 emulates an exit from
L2 to L1.

Intel SDM section 25.2 OTHER CAUSES OF VM EXITS specifies the following
on INIT signals: "Such exits do not modify register state or clear pending
events as they would outside of VMX operation."
When commit 4b9852f4f3 ("KVM: x86: Fix INIT signal handling in various CPU states")
was applied, I interepted above Intel SDM statement such that
INIT_SIGNAL exit don’t consume the LAPIC INIT pending event.
However, when Nadav Amit run matching kvm-unit-test on a bare-metal
machine, it turned out my interpetation was wrong. i.e. INIT_SIGNAL
exit does consume the LAPIC INIT pending event.
(See: https://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm/msg196757.html)
Therefore, fix KVM code to behave as observed on bare-metal.

If the "virtualize APIC accesses" VM-execution control is set in the
VMCS, the APIC virtualization hardware is triggered when a page walk
in VMX non-root mode terminates at a PTE wherein the address of the 4k
page frame matches the APIC-access address specified in the VMCS. On
hardware, the APIC-access address may be any valid 4k-aligned physical
address.
KVM's nVMX implementation enforces the additional constraint that the
APIC-access address specified in the vmcs12 must be backed by
a "struct page" in L1. If not, L0 will simply clear the "virtualize
APIC accesses" VM-execution control in the vmcs02.
The problem with this approach is that the L1 guest has arranged the
vmcs12 EPT tables--or shadow page tables, if the "enable EPT"
VM-execution control is clear in the vmcs12--so that the L2 guest
physical address(es)--or L2 guest linear address(es)--that reference
the L2 APIC map to the APIC-access address specified in the
vmcs12. Without the "virtualize APIC accesses" VM-execution control in
the vmcs02, the APIC accesses in the L2 guest will directly access the
APIC-access page in L1.
When there is no mapping whatsoever for the APIC-access address in L1,
the L2 VM just loses the intended APIC virtualization. However, when
the APIC-access address is mapped to an MMIO region in L1, the L2
guest gets direct access to the L1 MMIO device. For example, if the
APIC-access address specified in the vmcs12 is 0xfee00000, then L2
gets direct access to L1's APIC.
Since this vmcs12 configuration is something that KVM cannot
faithfully emulate, the appropriate response is to exit to userspace
with KVM_INTERNAL_ERROR_EMULATION.
