Move the logic to get the to-be-acknowledge IRQ for a nested VM-Exit from
nested_vmx_vmexit() to vmx_check_nested_events(), which is subtly the one
and only path where KVM invokes nested_vmx_vmexit() with
EXIT_REASON_EXTERNAL_INTERRUPT. A future fix will perform a last-minute
check on L2's nested posted interrupt notification vector, just before
injecting a nested VM-Exit. To handle that scenario correctly, KVM needs
to get the interrupt _before_ injecting VM-Exit, as simply querying the
highest priority interrupt, via kvm_cpu_has_interrupt(), would result in
TOCTOU bug, as a new, higher priority interrupt could arrive between
kvm_cpu_has_interrupt() and kvm_cpu_get_interrupt().
Unfortunately, simply moving the call to kvm_cpu_get_interrupt() doesn't
suffice, as a VMWRITE to GUEST_INTERRUPT_STATUS.SVI is hiding in
kvm_get_apic_interrupt(), and acknowledging the interrupt before nested
VM-Exit would cause the VMWRITE to hit vmcs02 instead of vmcs01.
Open code a rough equivalent to kvm_cpu_get_interrupt() so that the IRQ
is acknowledged after emulating VM-Exit, taking care to avoid the TOCTOU
issue described above.
Opportunistically convert the WARN_ON() to a WARN_ON_ONCE(). If KVM has
a bug that results in a false positive from kvm_cpu_has_interrupt(),
spamming dmesg won't help the situation.
Note, nested_vmx_reflect_vmexit() can never reflect external interrupts as
they are always "wanted" by L0.

When SGX EDECCSSA support was added to KVM in commit 16a7fe3728a8
("KVM/VMX: Allow exposing EDECCSSA user leaf function to KVM guest"), it
forgot to clear the X86_FEATURE_SGX_EDECCSSA bit in KVM CPU caps when
KVM SGX is disabled. Fix it.

Register the "disable virtualization in an emergency" callback just
before KVM enables virtualization in hardware, as there is no functional
need to keep the callbacks registered while KVM happens to be loaded, but
is inactive, i.e. if KVM hasn't enabled virtualization.
Note, unregistering the callback every time the last VM is destroyed could
have measurable latency due to the synchronize_rcu() needed to ensure all
references to the callback are dropped before KVM is unloaded. But the
latency should be a small fraction of the total latency of disabling
virtualization across all CPUs, and userspace can set enable_virt_at_load
to completely eliminate the runtime overhead.
Add a pointer in kvm_x86_ops to allow vendor code to provide its callback.
There is no reason to force vendor code to do the registration, and either
way KVM would need a new kvm_x86_ops hook.

Add a fastpath for HLT VM-Exits by immediately re-entering the guest if
it has a pending wake event. When virtual interrupt delivery is enabled,
i.e. when KVM doesn't need to manually inject interrupts, this allows KVM
to stay in the fastpath run loop when a vIRQ arrives between the guest
doing CLI and STI;HLT. Without AMD's Idle HLT-intercept support, the CPU
generates a HLT VM-Exit even though KVM will immediately resume the guest.
Note, on bare metal, it's relatively uncommon for a modern guest kernel to
actually trigger this scenario, as the window between the guest checking
for a wake event and committing to HLT is quite small. But in a nested
environment, the timings change significantly, e.g. rudimentary testing
showed that ~50% of HLT exits where HLT-polling was successful would be
serviced by this fastpath, i.e. ~50% of the time that a nested vCPU gets
a wake event before KVM schedules out the vCPU, the wake event was pending
even before the VM-Exit.

Re-introduce the "split" x2APIC ICR storage that KVM used prior to Intel's
IPI virtualization support, but only for AMD. While not stated anywhere
in the APM, despite stating the ICR is a single 64-bit register, AMD CPUs
store the 64-bit ICR as two separate 32-bit values in ICR and ICR2. When
IPI virtualization (IPIv on Intel, all AVIC flavors on AMD) is enabled,
KVM needs to match CPU behavior as some ICR ICR writes will be handled by
the CPU, not by KVM.
Add a kvm_x86_ops knob to control the underlying format used by the CPU to
store the x2APIC ICR, and tune it to AMD vs. Intel regardless of whether
or not x2AVIC is enabled. If KVM is handling all ICR writes, the storage
format for x2APIC mode doesn't matter, and having the behavior follow AMD
versus Intel will provide better test coverage and ease debugging.

Rename the "INVALID" internal MSR error return code to "UNSUPPORTED" to
try and make it more clear that access was denied because the MSR itself
is unsupported/unknown. "INVALID" is too ambiguous, as it could just as
easily mean the value for WRMSR as invalid.
Avoid UNKNOWN and UNIMPLEMENTED, as the error code is used for MSRs that
_are_ actually implemented by KVM, e.g. if the MSR is unsupported because
an associated feature flag is not present in guest CPUID.

GCC 12.3.0 complains about a potential NULL pointer dereference in
evmcs_load() as hv_get_vp_assist_page() can return NULL. In fact, this
cannot happen because KVM verifies (hv_init_evmcs()) that every CPU has a
valid VP assist page and aborts enabling the feature otherwise. CPU
onlining path is also checked in vmx_hardware_enable().
To make the compiler happy and to future proof the code, add a KVM_BUG_ON()
sentinel. It doesn't seem to be possible (and logical) to observe
evmcs_load() happening without an active vCPU so it is presumed that
kvm_get_running_vcpu() can't return NULL.

Synthesize a consistency check VM-Exit (VM-Enter) or VM-Abort (VM-Exit) if
L1 attempts to load/store an MSR via the VMCS MSR lists that userspace has
disallowed access to via an MSR filter. Intel already disallows including
a handful of "special" MSRs in the VMCS lists, so denying access isn't
completely without precedent.
More importantly, the behavior is well-defined _and_ can be communicated
the end user, e.g. to the customer that owns a VM running as L1 on top of
KVM. On the other hand, ignoring userspace MSR filters is all but
guaranteed to result in unexpected behavior as the access will hit KVM's
internal state, which is likely not up-to-date.
Unlike KVM-internal accesses, instruction emulation, and dedicated VMCS
fields, the MSRs in the VMCS load/store lists are 100% guest controlled,
thus making it all but impossible to reason about the correctness of
ignoring the MSR filter. And if userspace *really* wants to deny access
to MSRs via the aforementioned scenarios, userspace can hide the
associated feature from the guest, e.g. by disabling the PMU to prevent
accessing PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL via its VMCS field. But for the MSR lists, KVM
is blindly processing MSRs; the MSR filters are the _only_ way for
userspace to deny access.
This partially reverts commit ac8d6cad3c7b ("KVM: x86: Only do MSR
filtering when access MSR by rdmsr/wrmsr").

Refine the macros which define maximum General Purpose (GP) and fixed
counter numbers.
Currently the macro KVM_INTEL_PMC_MAX_GENERIC is used to represent the
maximum supported General Purpose (GP) counter number ambiguously across
Intel and AMD platforms. This would cause issues if AMD begins to support
more GP counters than Intel.
Thus a bunch of new macros including vendor specific and vendor
independent are introduced to replace the old macros. The vendor
independent macros are used in x86 common code to hide vendor difference
and eliminate the ambiguity.
No logic changes are introduced in this patch.

Check for a Requested Virtual Interrupt, i.e. a virtual interrupt that is
pending delivery, in vmx_has_nested_events() and drop the one-off
kvm_x86_ops.guest_apic_has_interrupt() hook.
In addition to dropping a superfluous hook, this fixes a bug where KVM
would incorrectly treat virtual interrupts _for L2_ as always enabled due
to kvm_arch_interrupt_allowed(), by way of vmx_interrupt_blocked(),
treating IRQs as enabled if L2 is active and vmcs12 is configured to exit
on IRQs, i.e. KVM would treat a virtual interrupt for L2 as a valid wake
event based on L1's IRQ blocking status.

Check for pending (and notified!) posted interrupts when checking if L2
has a pending wake event, as fully posted/notified virtual interrupt is a
valid wake event for HLT.
Note that KVM must check vmx->nested.pi_pending to avoid prematurely
waking L2, e.g. even if KVM sees a non-zero PID.PIR and PID.0N=1, the
virtual interrupt won't actually be recognized until a notification IRQ is
received by the vCPU or the vCPU does (nested) VM-Enter.

When requesting an immediate exit from L2 in order to inject a pending
event, do so only if the pending event actually requires manual injection,
i.e. if and only if KVM actually needs to regain control in order to
deliver the event.
Avoiding the "immediate exit" isn't simply an optimization, it's necessary
to make forward progress, as the "already expired" VMX preemption timer
trick that KVM uses to force a VM-Exit has higher priority than events
that aren't directly injected.
At present time, this is a glorified nop as all events processed by
vmx_has_nested_events() require injection, but that will not hold true in
the future, e.g. if there's a pending virtual interrupt in vmcs02.RVI.
I.e. if KVM is trying to deliver a virtual interrupt to L2, the expired
VMX preemption timer will trigger VM-Exit before the virtual interrupt is
delivered, and KVM will effectively hang the vCPU in an endless loop of
forced immediate VM-Exits (because the pending virtual interrupt never

Add a helper to retrieve the highest pending vector given a Posted
Interrupt descriptor. While the actual operation is straightforward, it's
surprisingly easy to mess up, e.g. if one tries to reuse lapic.c's
find_highest_vector(), which doesn't work with PID.PIR due to the APIC's
IRR and ISR component registers being physically discontiguous (they're
4-byte registers aligned at 16-byte intervals).
To make PIR handling more consistent with respect to IRR and ISR handling,
return -1 to indicate "no interrupt pending".

Remove the completely pointess global INVEPT, i.e. EPT TLB flush, from
KVM's VMX enablement path. KVM always does a targeted TLB flush when
using a "new" EPT root, in quotes because "new" simply means a root that
isn't currently being used by the vCPU.
KVM also _deliberately_ runs with stale TLB entries for defunct roots,
i.e. doesn't do a TLB flush when vCPUs stop using roots, precisely because
KVM does the flush on first use. As called out by the comment in
kvm_mmu_load(), the reason KVM flushes on first use is because KVM can't
guarantee the correctness of past hypervisors.
Jumping back to the global INVEPT, when the painfully terse commit
1439442c7b25 ("KVM: VMX: Enable EPT feature for KVM") was added, the
effective TLB flush being performed was:
static void vmx_flush_tlb(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu)
{
vpid_sync_vcpu_all(to_vmx(vcpu));
}
I.e. KVM was not flushing EPT TLB entries when allocating a "new" root,
which very strongly suggests that the global INVEPT during hardware
enabling was a misguided hack that addressed the most obvious symptom,
but failed to fix the underlying bug.

Unconditionally honor guest PAT on CPUs that support self-snoop, as
Intel has confirmed that CPUs that support self-snoop always snoop caches
and store buffers. I.e. CPUs with self-snoop maintain cache coherency
even in the presence of aliased memtypes, thus there is no need to trust
the guest behaves and only honor PAT as a last resort, as KVM does today.
Honoring guest PAT is desirable for use cases where the guest has access
to non-coherent DMA _without_ bouncing through VFIO, e.g. when a virtual
(mediated, for all intents and purposes) GPU is exposed to the guest, along
with buffers that are consumed directly by the physical GPU, i.e. which
can't be proxied by the host to ensure writes from the guest are performed
with the correct memory type for the GPU.

Drop KVM's emulation of CR0.CD=1 on Intel CPUs now that KVM no longer
honors guest MTRR memtypes, as forcing UC memory for VMs with
non-coherent DMA only makes sense if the guest is using something other
than PAT to configure the memtype for the DMA region.
Furthermore, KVM has forced WB memory for CR0.CD=1 since commit
fb279950ba02 ("KVM: vmx: obey KVM_QUIRK_CD_NW_CLEARED"), and no known
VMM in existence disables KVM_X86_QUIRK_CD_NW_CLEARED, let alone does
so with non-coherent DMA.
Lastly, commit fb279950ba02 ("KVM: vmx: obey KVM_QUIRK_CD_NW_CLEARED") was
from the same author as commit b18d5431acc7 ("KVM: x86: fix CR0.CD
virtualization"), and followed by a mere month. I.e. forcing UC memory
was likely the result of code inspection or perhaps misdiagnosed failures,
and not the necessitate by a concrete use case.
Update KVM's documentation to note that KVM_X86_QUIRK_CD_NW_CLEARED is now
AMD-only, and to take an erratum for lack of CR0.CD virtualization on
Intel.

Remove KVM's support for virtualizing guest MTRR memtypes, as full MTRR
adds no value, negatively impacts guest performance, and is a maintenance
burden due to it's complexity and oddities.
KVM's approach to virtualizating MTRRs make no sense, at all. KVM *only*
honors guest MTRR memtypes if EPT is enabled *and* the guest has a device
that may perform non-coherent DMA access. From a hardware virtualization
perspective of guest MTRRs, there is _nothing_ special about EPT. Legacy
shadowing paging doesn't magically account for guest MTRRs, nor does NPT.
Unwinding and deciphering KVM's murky history, the MTRR virtualization
code appears to be the result of misdiagnosed issues when EPT + VT-d with
passthrough devices was enabled years and years ago. And importantly, the
underlying bugs that were fudged around by honoring guest MTRR memtypes
have since been fixed (though rather poorly in some cases).
The zapping GFNs logic in the MTRR virtualization code came from:

Currently, whenever guest MTRR registers are changed
kvm_mmu_reset_context is called to switch to the new root shadow page
table, however, it's useless since:
1) the cache type is not cached into shadow page's attribute so that
the original root shadow page will be reused
2) the cache type is set on the last spte, that means we should sync
the last sptes when MTRR is changed
This patch fixs this issue by drop all the spte in the gfn range which
is being updated by MTRR
which was a fix for:

KVM: VMX: Set IGMT bit in EPT entry
There is a potential issue that, when guest using pagetable without vmexit when
EPT enabled, guest would use PAT/PCD/PWT bits to index PAT msr for it's memory,
which would be inconsistent with host side and would cause host MCE due to
inconsistent cache attribute.
The patch set IGMT bit in EPT entry to ignore guest PAT and use WB as default
memory type to protect host (notice that all memory mapped by KVM should be WB).
Note the CommitDates! The AuthorDates strongly suggests Sheng Yang added
the whole "ignoreIGMT things as a bug fix for issues that were detected
during EPT + VT-d + passthrough enabling, but it was applied earlier
because it was a generic fix.
Jumping back to 0bed3b568b68 ("KVM: Improve MTRR structure"), the other
relevant code, or rather lack thereof, is the handling of *host* MMIO.
That fix came in a bit later, but given the author and timing, it's safe
to say it was all part of the same EPT+VT-d enabling mess.

KVM: MMU: Map device MMIO as UC in EPT
Software are not allow to access device MMIO using cacheable memory type, the
patch limit MMIO region with UC and WC(guest can select WC using PAT and
PCD/PWT).
In addition to the host MMIO and IGMT issues, KVM's MTRR virtualization
was obviously never tested on NPT until much later, which lends further
credence to the theory/argument that this was all the result of
misdiagnosed issues.
Discussion from the EPT+MTRR enabling thread[*] more or less confirms that
Sheng Yang was trying to resolve issues with passthrough MMIO.

So, for the most part, what likely happened is that 15 years ago, a few
engineers (a) fixed a #MC problem by ignoring guest PAT and (b) initially
"fixed" passthrough device MMIO by emulating *guest* MTRRs. Except for
the below case, everything since then has been a result of those two
intertwined changes.
The one exception, which is actually yet more confirmation of all of the
above, is the revert of Paolo's attempt at "full" virtualization of guest
MTRRs:

KVM: x86: apply guest MTRR virtualization on host reserved pages
Currently guest MTRR is avoided if kvm_is_reserved_pfn returns true.
However, the guest could prefer a different page type than UC for
such pages. A good example is that pass-throughed VGA frame buffer is
not always UC as host expected.
This patch enables full use of virtual guest MTRRs.
I.e. Paolo tried to add back KVM's behavior before "Map device MMIO as UC
in EPT" and got the same result: machine checks, likely due to the guest
MTRRs not being trustworthy/sane at all times.
Note, Paolo also tried to enable MTRR virtualization on SVM+NPT, but that
too got reverted. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that anyone ever found
a smoking gun, i.e. exactly why emulating guest MTRRs via NPT PAT caused
extremely slow boot times doesn't appear to have a definitive root cause.

KVM: SVM: use NPT page attributes
Right now, NPT page attributes are not used, and the final page
attribute depends solely on gPAT (which however is not synced
correctly), the guest MTRRs and the guest page attributes.
However, we can do better by mimicking what is done for VMX.
In the absence of PCI passthrough, the guest PAT can be ignored
and the page attributes can be just WB. If passthrough is being
used, instead, keep respecting the guest PAT, and emulate the guest
MTRRs through the PAT field of the nested page tables.
The only snag is that WP memory cannot be emulated correctly,
because Linux's default PAT setting only includes the other types.
In short, honoring guest MTRRs for VMX was initially a workaround of
sorts for KVM ignoring guest PAT *and* for KVM not forcing UC for host
MMIO. And while there *are* known cases where honoring guest MTRRs is
desirable, e.g. passthrough VGA frame buffers, the desired behavior in
that case is to get WC instead of UC, i.e. at this point it's for
performance, not correctness.
Furthermore, the complete absence of MTRR virtualization on NPT and
shadow paging proves that, while KVM theoretically can do better, it's
by no means necessary for correctnesss.
Lastly, since kernels mostly rely on firmware to do MTRR setup, and the
host typically provides guest firmware, honoring guest MTRRs is effectively
honoring *host* userspace memtypes, which is also backwards. I.e. it
would be far better for host userspace to communicate its desired memtype
directly to KVM (or perhaps indirectly via VMAs in the host kernel), not
through guest MTRRs.

* Fixes and debugging help for the #VE sanity check. Also disable

exact symptoms vary by generation).
* Avoid WARN() when two NMIs arrive simultaneously during an NMI-disabled
situation (GIF=0 or interrupt shadow) when the processor supports
virtual NMI. While generally KVM will not request an NMI window
when virtual NMIs are supported, in this case it *does* have to
single-step over the interrupt shadow or enable the STGI intercept,
in order to deliver the latched second NMI.
* Drop support for hand tuning APIC timer advancement from userspace.
Since we have adaptive tuning, and it has proved to work well,
drop the module parameter for manual configuration and with it a
