Handle caching CR3 (from VMX's VMCS) into struct kvm_vcpu via the common cache_reg() callback and drop the dedicated decache_cr3(). The name decache_cr3() is somewhat confusing as the caching behavior of CR3 follows that of GPRs, RFLAGS and PDPTRs, (handled via cache_reg()), and has nothing in common with the caching behavior of CR0/CR4 (whose decache_cr{0,4}_guest_bits() likely provided the 'decache' verbiage). This would effectivel adds a BUG() if KVM attempts to cache CR3 on SVM. Change it to a WARN_ON_ONCE() -- if the cache never requires filling, the value is already in the right place -- and opportunistically add one in VMX to provide an equivalent check.

Now that indexing into arch.regs is either protected by WARN_ON_ONCE or done with hardcoded enums, combine all definitions for registers that are tracked by regs_avail and regs_dirty into 'enum kvm_reg'. Having a single enum type will simplify additional cleanup related to regs_avail and regs_dirty.

Add WARN_ON_ONCE() checks in kvm_register_{read,write}() to detect reg values that would cause KVM to overflow vcpu->arch.regs. Change the reg param to an 'int' to make it clear that the reg index is unverified. Regarding the overhead of WARN_ON_ONCE(), now that all fixed GPR reads and writes use dedicated accessors, e.g. kvm_rax_read(), the overhead is limited to flows where the reg index is generated at runtime. And there is at least one historical bug where KVM has generated an out-of- bounds access to arch.regs (see commit b68f3cc7, "KVM: x86: Always use 32-bit SMRAM save state for 32-bit kernels"). Adding the WARN_ON_ONCE() protection paves the way for additional cleanup related to kvm_reg and kvm_reg_ex.

Rework vmx_set_rflags() to avoid the extra code need to handle emulation of real mode and invalid state when unrestricted guest is disabled. The primary reason for doing so is to avoid the call to vmx_get_rflags(), which will incur a VMREAD when RFLAGS is not already available. When running nested VMs, the majority of calls to vmx_set_rflags() will occur without an associated vmx_get_rflags(), i.e. when stuffing GUEST_RFLAGS during transitions between vmcs01 and vmcs02. Note, vmx_get_rflags() guarantees RFLAGS is marked available.

Skip the VMWRITE to update GUEST_CR3 if CR3 is not available, i.e. has not been read from the VMCS since the last VM-Enter. If vcpu->arch.cr3 is stale, kvm_read_cr3(vcpu) will refresh vcpu->arch.cr3 from the VMCS, meaning KVM will do a VMREAD and then VMWRITE the value it just pulled from the VMCS. Note, this is a purely theoretical change, no instances of skipping the VMREAD+VMWRITE have been observed with this change.

Performing a WBINVD and DF_FLUSH are expensive operations. Currently, a WBINVD/DF_FLUSH is performed every time an SEV guest terminates. However, the WBINVD/DF_FLUSH is only required when an ASID is being re-allocated to a new SEV guest. Also, a single WBINVD/DF_FLUSH can enable all ASIDs that have been disassociated from guests through DEACTIVATE. To reduce the number of WBINVD/DF_FLUSH invocations, introduce a new ASID bitmap to track ASIDs that need to be reclaimed. When an SEV guest is terminated, add its ASID to the reclaim bitmap instead of clearing the bitmap in the existing SEV ASID bitmap. This delays the need to perform a WBINVD/DF_FLUSH invocation when an SEV guest terminates until all of the available SEV ASIDs have been used. At that point, the WBINVD/DF_FLUSH invocation can be performed and all ASIDs in the reclaim bitmap moved to the available ASIDs bitmap. The semaphore around DEACTIVATE can be changed to a read semaphore with the semaphore taken in write mode before performing the WBINVD/DF_FLUSH.

Performing a WBINVD and DF_FLUSH are expensive operations. The SEV support currently performs this WBINVD/DF_FLUSH combination when an SEV guest is terminated, so there is no need for it to be done before LAUNCH. However, when the SEV firmware transitions the platform from UNINIT state to INIT state, all ASIDs will be marked invalid across all threads. Therefore, as part of transitioning the platform to INIT state, perform a WBINVD/DF_FLUSH after a successful INIT in the PSP/SEV device driver. Since the PSP/SEV device driver is x86 only, it can reference and use the WBINVD related functions directly.

Write the desired L2 CR3 into vmcs02.GUEST_CR3 during nested VM-Enter instead of deferring the VMWRITE until vmx_set_cr3(). If the VMWRITE is deferred, then KVM can consume a stale vmcs02.GUEST_CR3 when it refreshes vmcs12->guest_cr3 during nested_vmx_vmexit() if the emulated VM-Exit occurs without actually entering L2, e.g. if the nested run is squashed because nested VM-Enter (from L1) is putting L2 into HLT. Note, the above scenario can occur regardless of whether L1 is intercepting HLT, e.g. L1 can intercept HLT and then re-enter L2 with vmcs.GUEST_ACTIVITY_STATE=HALTED. But practically speaking, a VMM will likely put a guest into HALTED if and only if it's not intercepting HLT. In an ideal world where EPT *requires* unrestricted guest (and vice versa), VMX could handle CR3 similar to how it handles RSP and RIP, e.g. mark CR3 dirty and conditionally load it at vmx_vcpu_run(). But the unrestricted guest silliness complicates the dirty tracking logic to the point that explicitly handling vmcs02.GUEST_CR3 during nested VM-Enter is a simpler overall implementation.

The SEV firmware DEACTIVATE command disassociates an SEV guest from an ASID, clears the WBINVD indicator on all threads and indicates that the SEV firmware DF_FLUSH command must be issued before the ASID can be re-used. The SEV firmware DF_FLUSH command will return an error if a WBINVD has not been performed on every thread before it has been invoked. A window exists between the WBINVD and the invocation of the DF_FLUSH command where an SEV firmware DEACTIVATE command could be invoked on another thread, clearing the WBINVD indicator. This will cause the subsequent SEV firmware DF_FLUSH command to fail which, in turn, results in the SEV firmware ACTIVATE command failing for the reclaimed ASID. This results in the SEV guest failing to start. Use a mutex to close the WBINVD/DF_FLUSH window by obtaining the mutex before the DEACTIVATE and releasing it after the DF_FLUSH. This ensures that any DEACTIVATE cannot run before a DF_FLUSH has completed.

Commit bf653b78 ("KVM: vmx: Introduce handle_unexpected_vmexit and handle WAITPKG vmexit") introduced specialized handling of specific exit-reasons that should not be raised by CPU because KVM configures VMCS such that they should never be raised. However, since commit 7396d337 ("KVM: x86: Return to userspace with internal error on unexpected exit reason"), VMX & SVM exit handlers were modified to generically handle all unexpected exit-reasons by returning to userspace with internal error. Therefore, there is no need for specialized handling of specific unexpected exit-reasons (This specialized handling also introduced inconsistency for these exit-reasons to silently skip guest instruction instead of return to userspace on internal-error).

The PMU emulation code uses the perf event sample period to trigger the overflow detection. This works fine for the *first* overflow handling, but results in a huge number of interrupts on the host, unrelated to the number of interrupts handled in the guest (a x20 factor is pretty common for the cycle counter). On a slow system (such as a SW model), this can result in the guest only making forward progress at a glacial pace. It turns out that the clue is in the name. The sample period is exactly that: a period. And once the an overflow has occured, the following period should be the full width of the associated counter, instead of whatever the guest had initially programed. Reset the sample period to the architected value in the overflow handler, which now results in a number of host interrupts that is much closer to the number of interrupts in the guest.

The current convention for KVM to request a chained event from the host PMU is to set bit[0] in attr.config1 (PERF_ATTR_CFG1_KVM_PMU_CHAINED). But as it turns out, this bit gets set *after* we create the kernel event that backs our virtual counter, meaning that we never get a 64bit counter.

When a counter is disabled, its value is sampled before the event is being disabled, and the value written back in the shadow register. In that process, the value gets truncated to 32bit, which is adequate for any counter but the cycle counter (defined as a 64bit counter). This obviously results in a corrupted counter, and things like "perf record -e cycles" not working at all when run in a guest... A similar, but less critical bug exists in kvm_pmu_get_counter_value. Make the truncation conditional on the counter not being the cycle counter, which results in a minor code reorganisation.

Intel test robot reported a ~7% regression on TCP_CRR tests that they bisected to the cited commit. Indeed, every time a new TCP socket is created or deleted, the atomic counter net->count is touched (via get_net(net) and put_net(net) calls) So cpus might have to reload a contended cache line in net_hash_mix(net) calls. We need to reorder 'struct net' fields to move @hash_mix in a read mostly cache line. We move in the first cache line fields that can be dirtied often. We probably will have to address in a followup patch the __randomize_layout that was added in linux-4.13, since this might break our placement choices.
