This patch adds arm64 helpers to write protect pmds/ptes and retrieve permissions while logging dirty pages. Also adds prototype to write protect a memory slot and adds a pmd define to check for read-only pmds.

This patch adds support for 2nd stage page fault handling while dirty page logging. On huge page faults, huge pages are dissolved to normal pages, and rebuilding of 2nd stage huge pages is blocked. In case migration is canceled this restriction is removed and huge pages may be rebuilt again.

kvm_get_dirty_log() provides generic handling of dirty bitmap, currently reused by several architectures. Building on that we intrdoduce kvm_get_dirty_log_protect() adding write protection to mark these pages dirty for future write access, before next KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG ioctl call from user space.

Currently the trace printk talks about "wfi" only, though the trace point triggers both on wfi and wfe traps. Add a parameter to differentiate between the two.

arm64 uses its own copy of exit handler (arm64/kvm/handle_exit.c). Currently this file doesn't hook up with any trace points. As a result users might not see certain events (e.g. HVC & WFI) while using ftrace with arm64 KVM. This patch fixes this issue by adding a new trace file and defining two trace events (one of which is shared by wfi and wfe) for arm64. The new trace points are then linked with related functions in handle_exit.c.

Since the advent of VGIC dynamic initialization, this latter is initialized quite late on the first vcpu run or "on-demand", when injecting an IRQ or when the guest sets its registers. This initialization could be initiated explicitly much earlier by the users-space, as soon as it has provided the requested dimensioning parameters. This patch adds a new entry to the VGIC KVM device that allows the user to manually request the VGIC init: - a new KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_CTRL group is introduced. - Its first attribute is KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_CTRL_INIT The rationale behind introducing a group is to be able to add other controls later on, if needed.

When access to descriptor in LDT/GDT wraparound outside long-mode, the address of the descriptor should be truncated to 32-bit. Citing Intel SDM 2.1.1.1 "Global and Local Descriptor Tables in IA-32e Mode": "GDTR and LDTR registers are expanded to 64-bits wide in both IA-32e sub-modes (64-bit mode and compatibility mode)." So in other cases, we need to truncate. Creating new function to return a pointer to descriptor table to avoid too much code duplication.

According to Intel SDM: "If the ESP register is used as a base register for addressing a destination operand in memory, the POP instruction computes the effective address of the operand after it increments the ESP register." The current emulation does not behave so. The fix required to waste another of the precious instruction flags and to check the flag in decode_modrm.

Since the operand size of fnstcw and fnstsw is updated during the execution, the emulation may cause spurious exceptions as it reads the memory beforehand.

For the hrtimer which emulates the tscdeadline timer in the guest, add an option to advance expiration, and busy spin on VM-entry waiting for the actual expiration time to elapse. This allows achieving low latencies in cyclictest (or any scenario which requires strict timing regarding timer expiration). Reduces average cyclictest latency from 12us to 8us on Core i5 desktop. Note: this option requires tuning to find the appropriate value for a particular hardware/guest combination. One method is to measure the average delay between apic_timer_fn and VM-entry. Another method is to start with 1000ns, and increase the value in say 500ns increments until avg cyclictest numbers stop decreasing.

In most cases calling hwapic_isr_update(), we always check if kvm_apic_vid_enabled() == 1, but actually, kvm_apic_vid_enabled() -> kvm_x86_ops->vm_has_apicv() -> vmx_vm_has_apicv() or '0' in svm case -> return enable_apicv && irqchip_in_kernel(kvm) So its a little cost to recall vmx_vm_has_apicv() inside hwapic_isr_update(), here just NULL out hwapic_isr_update() in case of !enable_apicv inside hardware_setup() then make all related stuffs follow this. Note we don't check this under that condition of irqchip_in_kernel() since we should make sure definitely any caller don't work without in-kernel irqchip.

This patch improve checks required by Intel Software Developer Manual. - SMM MSRs are not allowed. - microcode MSRs are not allowed. - check x2apic MSRs only when LAPIC is in x2apic mode. - MSR switch areas must be aligned to 16 bytes. - address of first and last byte in MSR switch areas should not set any bits beyond the processor's physical-address width. Also it adds warning messages on failures during MSR switch. These messages are useful for people who debug their VMMs in nVMX.

Several hypervisors need MSR auto load/restore feature. We read MSRs from VM-entry MSR load area which specified by L1, and load them via kvm_set_msr in the nested entry. When nested exit occurs, we get MSRs via kvm_get_msr, writing them to L1`s MSR store area. After this, we read MSRs from VM-exit MSR load area, and load them via kvm_set_msr.

Commit a074335a ("x86, um: Mark system call tables readonly") was supposed to mark the sys_call_table in UML as RO by adding the const, but it doesn't have the desired effect as it's nevertheless being placed into the data section since __cacheline_aligned enforces sys_call_table being placed into .data..cacheline_aligned instead. We need to use the ____cacheline_aligned version instead to fix this issue.

futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() does not work on UML because it triggers a copy_from_user() in kernel context. On UML copy_from_user() can only be used if the kernel was called by a real user space process such that UML can use ptrace() to fetch the value.
