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.

Rename the "shared_msrs" mechanism, which is used to defer restoring
MSRs that are only consumed when running in userspace, to a more banal
but less likely to be confusing "user_return_msrs".
The "shared" nomenclature is confusing as it's not obvious who is
sharing what, e.g. reasonable interpretations are that the guest value
is shared by vCPUs in a VM, or that the MSR value is shared/common to
guest and host, both of which are wrong.
"shared" is also misleading as the MSR value (in hardware) is not
guaranteed to be shared/reused between VMs (if that's indeed the correct
interpretation of the name), as the ability to share values between VMs
is simply a side effect (albiet a very nice side effect) of deferring
restoration of the host value until returning from userspace.
"user_return" avoids the above confusion by describing the mechanism
itself instead of its effects.

Explicitly reset the segment cache after stuffing guest segment regs in
prepare_vmcs02_rare(). Although the cache is reset when switching to
vmcs02, there is nothing that prevents KVM from re-populating the cache
prior to writing vmcs02 with vmcs12's values. E.g. if the vCPU is
preempted after switching to vmcs02 but before prepare_vmcs02_rare(),
kvm_arch_vcpu_put() will dereference GUEST_SS_AR_BYTES via .get_cpl()
and cache the stale vmcs02 value. While the current code base only
caches stale data in the preemption case, it's theoretically possible
future code could read a segment register during the nested flow itself,
i.e. this isn't technically illegal behavior in kvm_arch_vcpu_put(),
although it did introduce the bug.
This manifests as an unexpected nested VM-Enter failure when running
with unrestricted guest disabled if the above preemption case coincides
with L1 switching L2's CPL, e.g. when switching from a L2 vCPU at CPL3
to to a L2 vCPU at CPL0. stack_segment_valid() will see the new SS_SEL
but the old SS_AR_BYTES and incorrectly mark the guest state as invalid
due to SS.dpl != SS.rpl.
Don't bother updating the cache even though prepare_vmcs02_rare() writes
every segment. With unrestricted guest, guest segments are almost never
read, let alone L2 guest segments. On the other hand, populating the
cache requires a large number of memory writes, i.e. it's unlikely to be
a net win. Updating the cache would be a win when unrestricted guest is
not supported, as guest_state_valid() will immediately cache all segment
registers. But, nested virtualization without unrestricted guest is
dirt slow, saving some VMREADs won't change that, and every CPU
manufactured in the last decade supports unrestricted guest. In other
words, the extra (minor) complexity isn't worth the trouble.
Note, kvm_arch_vcpu_put() may see stale data when querying guest CPL
depending on when preemption occurs. This is "ok" in that the usage is
imperfect by nature, i.e. it's used heuristically to improve performance
but doesn't affect functionality. kvm_arch_vcpu_put() could be "fixed"
by also disabling preemption while loading segments, but that's
pointless and misleading as reading state from kvm_sched_{in,out}() is
guaranteed to see stale data in one form or another. E.g. even if all
the usage of regs_avail is fixed to call kvm_register_mark_available()
after the associated state is set, the individual state might still be
stale with respect to the overall vCPU state. I.e. making functional
decisions in an asynchronous hook is doomed from the get go. Thankfully
KVM doesn't do that.

if it was the level at which the huge page was disallowed. For the
latter case, the previous logic would account all shadow pages used to
create the translation for the forced small page, e.g. even PML4, which
can't be a huge page on current hardware, would be accounted as having
been a disallowed huge page when using 5-level EPT.

calling of kvm_mmu_commit_zap_page(). The in-loop commit when to_zap
hits zero is superfluous now that there's an unconditional commit after
the loop to handle the case where lpage_disallowed_mmu_pages is emptied.

Call kvm_mmu_commit_zap_page() after exiting the "prepare zap" loop in
kvm_recover_nx_lpages() to finish zapping pages in the unlikely event
that the loop exited due to lpage_disallowed_mmu_pages being empty.
Because the recovery thread drops mmu_lock() when rescheduling, it's
possible that lpage_disallowed_mmu_pages could be emptied by a different
thread without to_zap reaching zero despite to_zap being derived from
the number of disallowed lpages.

Rename ops.h to vmx_ops.h to allow adding a tdx_ops.h in the future
without causing massive confusion.
Trust Domain Extensions (TDX) is built on VMX, but KVM cannot directly
access the VMCS(es) for a TDX guest, thus TDX will need its own "ops"
implementation for wrapping the low level operations.

Extract the posted interrupt code so that it can be reused for Trust
Domain Extensions (TDX), which requires posted interrupts and can use
KVM VMX's implementation almost verbatim. TDX is different enough from
raw VMX that it is highly desirable to implement the guts of TDX in a
separate file, i.e. reusing posted interrupt code by shoving TDX support
into vmx.c would be a mess.

Detect spurious page faults, e.g. page faults that occur when multiple
vCPUs simultaneously access a not-present page, and skip the SPTE write,
prefetch, and stats update for spurious faults.
Note, the performance benefits of skipping the write and prefetch are
likely negligible, and the false positive stats adjustment is probably
lost in the noise. The primary motivation is to play nice with TDX's
SEPT in the long term. SEAMCALLs (to program SEPT entries) are quite
costly, e.g. thousands of cycles, and a spurious SEPT update will result
in a SEAMCALL error (which KVM will ideally treat as fatal).

Introduce RET_PF_FIXED and RET_PF_SPURIOUS to provide unique return
values instead of overloading RET_PF_RETRY. In the short term, the
unique values add clarity to the code and RET_PF_SPURIOUS will be used
by set_spte() to avoid unnecessary work for spurious faults.
In the long term, TDX will use RET_PF_FIXED to deterministically map
memory during pre-boot. The page fault flow may bail early for benign
reasons, e.g. if the mmu_notifier fires for an unrelated address. With
only RET_PF_RETRY, it's impossible for the caller to distinguish between
"cool, page is mapped" and "darn, need to try again", and thus cannot
handle benign cases like the mmu_notifier retry.

Explicitly check for RET_PF_EMULATE instead of implicitly doing the same
by checking for !RET_PF_RETRY (RET_PF_INVALID is handled earlier). This
will adding new RET_PF_ types in future patches without breaking the

Exit to userspace with an error if the MMU is buggy and returns
RET_PF_INVALID when servicing a page fault. This will allow a future
patch to invert the emulation path, i.e. emulate only on RET_PF_EMULATE
instead of emulating on anything but RET_PF_RETRY. This technically
means that KVM will exit to userspace instead of emulating on
RET_PF_INVALID, but practically speaking it's a nop as the MMU never
returns RET_PF_INVALID.

Recursively zap all to-be-orphaned children, unsynced or otherwise, when
zapping a shadow page for a nested TDP MMU. KVM currently only zaps the
unsynced child pages, but not the synced ones. This can create problems
over time when running many nested guests because it leaves unlinked
pages which will not be freed until the page quota is hit. With the
default page quota of 20 shadow pages per 1000 guest pages, this looks
like a memory leak and can degrade MMU performance.
In a recent benchmark, substantial performance degradation was observed:
An L1 guest was booted with 64G memory.
2G nested Windows guests were booted, 10 at a time for 20
iterations. (200 total boots)
Windows was used in this benchmark because they touch all of their
memory on startup.
By the end of the benchmark, the nested guests were taking ~10% longer
to boot. With this patch there is no degradation in boot time.
Without this patch the benchmark ends with hundreds of thousands of
stale EPT02 pages cluttering up rmaps and the page hash map. As a
result, VM shutdown is also much slower: deleting memslot 0 was
observed to take over a minute. With this patch it takes just a
few miliseconds.

Move the logic that controls whether or not FNAME(invlpg) needs to flush
fully into FNAME(invlpg) so that mmu_page_zap_pte() doesn't return a
value. This allows a future patch to redefine the return semantics for
mmu_page_zap_pte() so that it can recursively zap orphaned child shadow
pages for nested TDP MMUs.
