KVM: x86: Morph pending exceptions to pending VM-Exits at queue time
Morph pending exceptions to pending VM-Exits (due to interception) when the exception is queued instead of waiting until nested events are checked at VM-Entry. This fixes a longstanding bug where KVM fails to handle an exception that occurs during delivery of a previous exception, KVM (L0) and L1 both want to intercept the exception (e.g. #PF for shadow paging), and KVM determines that the exception is in the guest's domain, i.e. queues the new exception for L2. Deferring the interception check causes KVM to esclate various combinations of injected+pending exceptions to double fault (#DF) without consulting L1's interception desires, and ends up injecting a spurious #DF into L2. KVM has fudged around the issue for #PF by special casing emulated #PF injection for shadow paging, but the underlying issue is not unique to shadow paging in L0, e.g. if KVM is intercepting #PF because the guest has a smaller maxphyaddr and L1 (but not L0) is using shadow paging. Other exceptions are affected as well, e.g. if KVM is intercepting #GP for one of SVM's workaround or for the VMware backdoor emulation stuff. The other cases have gone unnoticed because the #DF is spurious if and only if L1 resolves the exception, e.g. KVM's goofs go unnoticed if L1 would have injected #DF anyways. The hack-a-fix has also led to ugly code, e.g. bailing from the emulator if #PF injection forced a nested VM-Exit and the emulator finds itself back in L1. Allowing for direct-to-VM-Exit queueing also neatly solves the async #PF in L2 mess; no need to set a magic flag and token, simply queue a #PF nested VM-Exit. Deal with event migration by flagging that a pending exception was queued by userspace and check for interception at the next KVM_RUN, e.g. so that KVM does the right thing regardless of the order in which userspace restores nested state vs. event state. When "getting" events from userspace, simply drop any pending excpetion that is destined to be intercepted if there is also an injected exception to be migrated. Ideally, KVM would migrate both events, but that would require new ABI, and practically speaking losing the event is unlikely to be noticed, let alone fatal. The injected exception is captured, RIP still points at the original faulting instruction, etc... So either the injection on the target will trigger the same intercepted exception, or the source of the intercepted exception was transient and/or non-deterministic, thus dropping it is ok-ish.
