Add a capability for userspace to mirror SEV encryption context from
one vm to another. On our side, this is intended to support a
Migration Helper vCPU, but it can also be used generically to support
other in-guest workloads scheduled by the host. The intention is for
the primary guest and the mirror to have nearly identical memslots.
The primary benefits of this are that:
1) The VMs do not share KVM contexts (think APIC/MSRs/etc), so they
can't accidentally clobber each other.
2) The VMs can have different memory-views, which is necessary for post-copy
migration (the migration vCPUs on the target need to read and write to
pages, when the primary guest would VMEXIT).
This does not change the threat model for AMD SEV. Any memory involved
is still owned by the primary guest and its initial state is still
attested to through the normal SEV_LAUNCH_* flows. If userspace wanted
to circumvent SEV, they could achieve the same effect by simply attaching
a vCPU to the primary VM.
This patch deliberately leaves userspace in charge of the memslots for the
mirror, as it already has the power to mess with them in the primary guest.
This patch does not support SEV-ES (much less SNP), as it does not
handle handing off attested VMSAs to the mirror.
For additional context, we need a Migration Helper because SEV PSP
migration is far too slow for our live migration on its own. Using
an in-guest migrator lets us speed this up significantly.

Add a capability, KVM_CAP_SGX_ATTRIBUTE, that can be used by userspace
to grant a VM access to a priveleged attribute, with args[0] holding a
file handle to a valid SGX attribute file.
The SGX subsystem restricts access to a subset of enclave attributes to
provide additional security for an uncompromised kernel, e.g. to prevent
malware from using the PROVISIONKEY to ensure its nodes are running
inside a geniune SGX enclave and/or to obtain a stable fingerprint.
To prevent userspace from circumventing such restrictions by running an
enclave in a VM, KVM restricts guest access to privileged attributes by
default.

KVM_CAP_PPC_MULTITCE is a capability, not an ioctl.
Therefore move it from section 4.97 to the new 8.31 (other capabilities).
To fill the gap, move KVM_X86_SET_MSR_FILTER (was 4.126) to
4.97, and shifted Xen-related ioctl (were 4.127 - 4.130) by
one place (4.126 - 4.129).
Also fixed minor typo in KVM_GET_MSR_INDEX_LIST ioctl description
(section 4.3).

Fix a plethora of issues with MSR filtering by installing the resulting
filter as an atomic bundle instead of updating the live filter one range
at a time. The KVM_X86_SET_MSR_FILTER ioctl() isn't truly atomic, as
the hardware MSR bitmaps won't be updated until the next VM-Enter, but
the relevant software struct is atomically updated, which is what KVM
really needs.
Similar to the approach used for modifying memslots, make arch.msr_filter
a SRCU-protected pointer, do all the work configuring the new filter
outside of kvm->lock, and then acquire kvm->lock only when the new filter
has been vetted and created. That way vCPU readers either see the old
filter or the new filter in their entirety, not some half-baked state.
Yuan Yao pointed out a use-after-free in ksm_msr_allowed() due to a
TOCTOU bug, but that's just the tip of the iceberg...
- Nothing is __rcu annotated, making it nigh impossible to audit the
code for correctness.
- kvm_add_msr_filter() has an unpaired smp_wmb(). Violation of kernel
coding style aside, the lack of a smb_rmb() anywhere casts all code
into doubt.
- kvm_clear_msr_filter() has a double free TOCTOU bug, as it grabs
count before taking the lock.
- kvm_clear_msr_filter() also has memory leak due to the same TOCTOU bug.
The entire approach of updating the live filter is also flawed. While
installing a new filter is inherently racy if vCPUs are running, fixing
the above issues also makes it trivial to ensure certain behavior is
deterministic, e.g. KVM can provide deterministic behavior for MSRs with
identical settings in the old and new filters. An atomic update of the
filter also prevents KVM from getting into a half-baked state, e.g. if
installing a filter fails, the existing approach would leave the filter
in a half-baked state, having already committed whatever bits of the
filter were already processed.

KVM/arm64 has forever used a 40bit default IPA space, partially
due to its 32bit heritage (where the only choice is 40bit).
However, there are implementations in the wild that have a *cough*
much smaller *cough* IPA space, which leads to a misprogramming of
VTCR_EL2, and a guest that is stuck on its first memory access
if userspace dares to ask for the default IPA setting (which most
VMMs do).
Instead, blundly reject the creation of such VM, as we can't
satisfy the requirements from userspace (with a one-off warning).
Also clarify the boot warning, and document that the VM creation
will fail when an unsupported IPA size is provided.
Although this is an ABI change, it doesn't really change much
for userspace:
- the guest couldn't run before this change, but no error was
returned. At least userspace knows what is happening.
- a memory slot that was accepted because it did fit the default
IPA space now doesn't even get a chance to be registered.
The other thing that is left doing is to convince userspace to
actually use the IPA space setting instead of relying on the
antiquated default.

This is how Xen guests do steal time accounting. The hypervisor records
the amount of time spent in each of running/runnable/blocked/offline
states.
In the Xen accounting, a vCPU is still in state RUNSTATE_running while
in Xen for a hypercall or I/O trap, etc. Only if Xen explicitly schedules
does the state become RUNSTATE_blocked. In KVM this means that even when
the vCPU exits the kvm_run loop, the state remains RUNSTATE_running.
The VMM can explicitly set the vCPU to RUNSTATE_blocked by using the
KVM_XEN_VCPU_ATTR_TYPE_RUNSTATE_CURRENT attribute, and can also use
KVM_XEN_VCPU_ATTR_TYPE_RUNSTATE_ADJUST to retrospectively add a given
amount of time to the blocked state and subtract it from the running
state.
The state_entry_time corresponds to get_kvmclock_ns() at the time the
vCPU entered the current state, and the total times of all four states
should always add up to state_entry_time.

The API documentation states that general error codes are not detailed, but
errors with specific meanings are. On arm64, KVM_RUN can return error
numbers with a different meaning than what is described by POSIX or the C99
standard (as taken from man 3 errno).
Absent from the newly documented error codes is ERANGE which can be
returned when making a change to the EL2 stage 1 tables if the address is
larger than the largest supported input address. Assuming no bugs in the
implementation, that is not possible because the input addresses which are
mapped are the result of applying the macro kern_hyp_va() on kernel virtual
addresses.

There's no good reason to use both the dirty bitmap logging and the
new dirty ring buffer to track dirty bits. We should be able to even
support both of them at the same time, but it could complicate things
which could actually help little. Let's simply make it the rule
before we enable dirty ring on any arch, that we don't allow these two
interfaces to be used together.
The big world switch would be KVM_CAP_DIRTY_LOG_RING capability
enablement. That's where we'll switch from the default dirty logging
way to the dirty ring way. As long as kvm->dirty_ring_size is setup
correctly, we'll once and for all switch to the dirty ring buffer mode
for the current virtual machine.

This patch is heavily based on previous work from Lei Cao
<lei.cao@stratus.com> and Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>. [1]
KVM currently uses large bitmaps to track dirty memory. These bitmaps
are copied to userspace when userspace queries KVM for its dirty page
information. The use of bitmaps is mostly sufficient for live
migration, as large parts of memory are be dirtied from one log-dirty
pass to another. However, in a checkpointing system, the number of
dirty pages is small and in fact it is often bounded---the VM is
paused when it has dirtied a pre-defined number of pages. Traversing a
large, sparsely populated bitmap to find set bits is time-consuming,
as is copying the bitmap to user-space.
A similar issue will be there for live migration when the guest memory
is huge while the page dirty procedure is trivial. In that case for
each dirty sync we need to pull the whole dirty bitmap to userspace
and analyse every bit even if it's mostly zeros.
The preferred data structure for above scenarios is a dense list of
guest frame numbers (GFN). This patch series stores the dirty list in
kernel memory that can be memory mapped into userspace to allow speedy
harvesting.
This patch enables dirty ring for X86 only. However it should be
easily extended to other archs as well.

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"For x86, there is a new alternative and (in the future) more scalable
implementation of extended page tables that does not need a reverse
map from guest physical addresses to host physical addresses.
For now it is disabled by default because it is still lacking a few of
the existing MMU's bells and whistles. However it is a very solid
piece of work and it is already available for people to hammer on it.
Other updates:
ARM:
- New page table code for both hypervisor and guest stage-2
- Introduction of a new EL2-private host context
- Allow EL2 to have its own private per-CPU variables
- Support of PMU event filtering
- Complete rework of the Spectre mitigation
PPC:
- Fix for running nested guests with in-kernel IRQ chip
- Fix race condition causing occasional host hard lockup
- Minor cleanups and bugfixes
x86:
- allow trapping unknown MSRs to userspace
- allow userspace to force #GP on specific MSRs
- INVPCID support on AMD
- nested AMD cleanup, on demand allocation of nested SVM state
- hide PV MSRs and hypercalls for features not enabled in CPUID
- new test for MSR_IA32_TSC writes from host and guest
- cleanups: MMU, CPUID, shared MSRs
- LAPIC latency optimizations ad bugfixes"

KVM unconditionally provides PV features to the guest, regardless of the
configured CPUID. An unwitting guest that doesn't check
KVM_CPUID_FEATURES before use could access paravirt features that
userspace did not intend to provide. Fix this by checking the guest's
CPUID before performing any paravirtual operations.
Introduce a capability, KVM_CAP_ENFORCE_PV_FEATURE_CPUID, to gate the
aforementioned enforcement. Migrating a VM from a host w/o this patch to
a host with this patch could silently change the ABI exposed to the
guest, warranting that we default to the old behavior and opt-in for
the new one.

Allowing userspace to intercept reads to x2APIC MSRs when APICV is
fully enabled for the guest simply can't work. But more in general,
the LAPIC could be set to in-kernel after the MSR filter is setup
and allowing accesses by userspace would be very confusing.
We could in principle allow userspace to intercept reads and writes to TPR,
and writes to EOI and SELF_IPI, but while that could be made it work, it
would still be silly.

Rework the resetting of the MSR bitmap for x2APIC MSRs to ignore userspace
filtering. Allowing userspace to intercept reads to x2APIC MSRs when
APICV is fully enabled for the guest simply can't work; the LAPIC and thus
virtual APIC is in-kernel and cannot be directly accessed by userspace.
To keep things simple we will in fact forbid intercepting x2APIC MSRs
altogether, independent of the default_allow setting.

It's not desireable to have all MSRs always handled by KVM kernel space. Some
MSRs would be useful to handle in user space to either emulate behavior (like
uCode updates) or differentiate whether they are valid based on the CPU model.
To allow user space to specify which MSRs it wants to see handled by KVM,
this patch introduces a new ioctl to push filter rules with bitmaps into
KVM. Based on these bitmaps, KVM can then decide whether to reject MSR access.
With the addition of KVM_CAP_X86_USER_SPACE_MSR it can also deflect the
denied MSR events to user space to operate on.
If no filter is populated, MSR handling stays identical to before.

MSRs are weird. Some of them are normal control registers, such as EFER.
Some however are registers that really are model specific, not very
interesting to virtualization workloads, and not performance critical.
Others again are really just windows into package configuration.
Out of these MSRs, only the first category is necessary to implement in
kernel space. Rarely accessed MSRs, MSRs that should be fine tunes against
certain CPU models and MSRs that contain information on the package level
are much better suited for user space to process. However, over time we have
accumulated a lot of MSRs that are not the first category, but still handled
by in-kernel KVM code.
This patch adds a generic interface to handle WRMSR and RDMSR from user
space. With this, any future MSR that is part of the latter categories can
be handled in user space.
Furthermore, it allows us to replace the existing "ignore_msrs" logic with
something that applies per-VM rather than on the full system. That way you
can run productive VMs in parallel to experimental ones where you don't care
about proper MSR handling.

arm64 requires a vcpu fd (KVM_HAS_DEVICE_ATTR vcpu ioctl) to probe
support for steal-time. However this is unnecessary, as only a KVM
fd is required, and it complicates userspace (userspace may prefer
delaying vcpu creation until after feature probing). Introduce a cap
that can be checked instead. While x86 can already probe steal-time
support with a kvm fd (KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID), we add the cap there
too for consistency.
