rcuwait_active only returns whether w->task is not NULL. This is
exactly one of the usecases that are mentioned in the documentation
for rcu_access_pointer() where it is correct to bypass lockdep checks.
This avoids a splat from kvm_vcpu_on_spin().

The async page fault injection into kernel space creates more problems than
it solves. The host has absolutely no knowledge about the state of the
guest if the fault happens in CPL0. The only restriction for the host is
interrupt disabled state. If interrupts are enabled in the guest then the
exception can hit arbitrary code. The HALT based wait in non-preemotible
code is a hacky replacement for a proper hypercall.
For the ongoing work to restrict instrumentation and make the RCU idle
interaction well defined the required extra work for supporting async
pagefault in CPL0 is just not justified and creates complexity for a
dubious benefit.
The CPL3 injection is well defined and does not cause any issues as it is
more or less the same as a regular page fault from CPL3.

While working on the entry consolidation I stumbled over the KVM async page
fault handler and kvm_async_pf_task_wait() in particular. It took me a
while to realize that the randomly sprinkled around rcu_irq_enter()/exit()
invocations are just cargo cult programming. Several patches "fixed" RCU
splats by curing the symptoms without noticing that the code is flawed
from a design perspective.
The main problem is that this async injection is not based on a proper
handshake mechanism and only respects the minimal requirement, i.e. the
guest is not in a state where it has interrupts disabled.
Aside of that the actual code is a convoluted one fits it all swiss army
knife. It is invoked from different places with different RCU constraints:
1) Host side:
vcpu_enter_guest()
kvm_x86_ops->handle_exit()
kvm_handle_page_fault()
kvm_async_pf_task_wait()
The invocation happens from fully preemptible context.
2) Guest side:
The async page fault interrupted:
a) user space
b) preemptible kernel code which is not in a RCU read side
critical section
c) non-preemtible kernel code or a RCU read side critical section
or kernel code with CONFIG_PREEMPTION=n which allows not to
differentiate between #2b and #2c.
RCU is watching for:
#1 The vCPU exited and current is definitely not the idle task
#2a The #PF entry code on the guest went through enter_from_user_mode()
which reactivates RCU
#2b There is no preemptible, interrupts enabled code in the kernel
which can run with RCU looking away. (The idle task is always
non preemptible).
I.e. all schedulable states (#1, #2a, #2b) do not need any of this RCU
voodoo at all.
In #2c RCU is eventually not watching, but as that state cannot schedule
anyway there is no point to worry about it so it has to invoke
rcu_irq_enter() before running that code. This can be optimized, but this
will be done as an extra step in course of the entry code consolidation
work.
So the proper solution for this is to:
- Split kvm_async_pf_task_wait() into schedule and halt based waiting
interfaces which share the enqueueing code.
- Add comments (condensed form of this changelog) to spare others the
time waste and pain of reverse engineering all of this with the help of
uncomprehensible changelogs and code history.
- Invoke kvm_async_pf_task_wait_schedule() from kvm_handle_page_fault(),
user mode and schedulable kernel side async page faults (#1, #2a, #2b)
- Invoke kvm_async_pf_task_wait_halt() for the non schedulable kernel
case (#2c).
For this case also remove the rcu_irq_exit()/enter() pair around the
halt as it is just a pointless exercise:
- vCPUs can VMEXIT at any random point and can be scheduled out for
an arbitrary amount of time by the host and this is not any
different except that it voluntary triggers the exit via halt.
- The interrupted context could have RCU watching already. So the
rcu_irq_exit() before the halt is not gaining anything aside of
confusing the reader. Claiming that this might prevent RCU stalls
is just an illusion.

KVM overloads #PF to indicate two types of not-actually-page-fault
events. Right now, the KVM guest code intercepts them by modifying
the IDT and hooking the #PF vector. This makes the already fragile
fault code even harder to understand, and it also pollutes call
traces with async_page_fault and do_async_page_fault for normal page
faults.
Clean it up by moving the logic into do_page_fault() using a static
branch. This gets rid of the platform trap_init override mechanism
completely.

trace_hardirqs_on/off() is only partially safe vs. RCU idle. The tracer
core itself is safe, but the resulting tracepoints can be utilized by
e.g. BPF which is unsafe.
Provide variants which do not contain the lockdep invocation so the lockdep
and tracer invocations can be split at the call site and placed
properly. This is required because lockdep needs to be aware of the state
before switching away from RCU idle and after switching to RCU idle because
these transitions can take locks.
As these code pathes are going to be non-instrumentable the tracer can be
invoked after RCU is turned on and before the switch to RCU idle. So for
these new variants there is no need to invoke the rcuidle aware tracer
functions.
Name them so they match the lockdep counterparts.

Some code pathes, especially the low level entry code, must be protected
against instrumentation for various reasons:
- Low level entry code can be a fragile beast, especially on x86.
- With NO_HZ_FULL RCU state needs to be established before using it.
Having a dedicated section for such code allows to validate with tooling
that no unsafe functions are invoked.
Add the .noinstr.text section and the noinstr attribute to mark
functions. noinstr implies notrace. Kprobes will gain a section check
later.
Provide also a set of markers: instrumentation_begin()/end()
These are used to mark code inside a noinstr function which calls
into regular instrumentable text section as safe.
The instrumentation markers are only active when CONFIG_DEBUG_ENTRY is
enabled as the end marker emits a NOP to prevent the compiler from merging
the annotation points. This means the objtool verification requires a
kernel compiled with this option.

Two new stats for exposing halt-polling cpu usage:
halt_poll_success_ns
halt_poll_fail_ns
Thus sum of these 2 stats is the total cpu time spent polling. "success"
means the VCPU polled until a virtual interrupt was delivered. "fail"
means the VCPU had to schedule out (either because the maximum poll time
was reached or it needed to yield the CPU).
To avoid touching every arch's kvm_vcpu_stat struct, only update and
export halt-polling cpu usage stats if we're on x86.
Exporting cpu usage as a u64 and in nanoseconds means we will overflow at
~500 years, which seems reasonably large.

While optimizing posted-interrupt delivery especially for the timer
fastpath scenario, I measured kvm_x86_ops.deliver_posted_interrupt()
to introduce substantial latency because the processor has to perform
all vmentry tasks, ack the posted interrupt notification vector,
read the posted-interrupt descriptor etc.
This is not only slow, it is also unnecessary when delivering an
interrupt to the current CPU (as is the case for the LAPIC timer) because
PIR->IRR and IRR->RVI synchronization is already performed on vmentry
Therefore skip kvm_vcpu_trigger_posted_interrupt in this case, and
instead do vmx_sync_pir_to_irr() on the EXIT_FASTPATH_REENTER_GUEST
fastpath as well.

PG_LEVEL_* enums, at which point "walker->level == PG_LEVEL_2M" is
semantically incorrect (though still functionally ok).
No functional change intended.

Use an enum for passing around the failure code for a failed VM-Enter
that results in VM-Exit to provide a level of indirection from the final
resting place of the failure code, vmcs.EXIT_QUALIFICATION. The exit
qualification field is an unsigned long, e.g. passing around
'u32 exit_qual' throws up red flags as it suggests KVM may be dropping
bits when reporting errors to L1. This is a red herring because the
only defined failure codes are 0, 2, 3, and 4, i.e. don't come remotely
close to overflowing a u32.
Setting vmcs.EXIT_QUALIFICATION on entry failure is further complicated
by the MSR load list, which returns the (1-based) entry that failed, and
the number of MSRs to load is a 32-bit VMCS field. At first blush, it
would appear that overflowing a u32 is possible, but the number of MSRs
that can be loaded is hardcapped at 4096 (limited by MSR_IA32_VMX_MISC).
In other words, there are two completely disparate types of data that
eventually get stuffed into vmcs.EXIT_QUALIFICATION, neither of which is
an 'unsigned long' in nature. This was presumably the reasoning for
switching to 'u32' when the related code was refactored in commit
ca0bde28f2 ("kvm: nVMX: Split VMCS checks from nested_vmx_run()").
Using an enum for the failure code addresses the technically-possible-
but-will-never-happen scenario where Intel defines a failure code that
doesn't fit in a 32-bit integer. The enum variables and values will
either be automatically sized (gcc 5.4 behavior) or be subjected to some
combination of truncation. The former case will simply work, while the
latter will trigger a compile-time warning unless the compiler is being
particularly unhelpful.
Separating the failure code from the failed MSR entry allows for
disassociating both from vmcs.EXIT_QUALIFICATION, which avoids the
conundrum where KVM has to choose between 'u32 exit_qual' and tracking
values as 'unsigned long' that have no business being tracked as such.
To cement the split, set vmcs12->exit_qualification directly from the
entry error code or failed MSR index instead of bouncing through a local
variable.
Opportunistically rename the variables in load_vmcs12_host_state() and
vmx_set_nested_state() to call out that they're ignored, set exit_reason
on demand on nested VM-Enter failure, and add a comment in
nested_vmx_load_msr() to call out that returning 'i + 1' can't wrap.

Snapshot the TDP level now that it's invariant (SVM) or dependent only
on host capabilities and guest CPUID (VMX). This avoids having to call
kvm_x86_ops.get_tdp_level() when initializing a TDP MMU and/or
calculating the page role, and thus avoids the associated retpoline.
Drop the WARN in vmx_get_tdp_level() as updating CPUID while L2 is
active is legal, if dodgy.

Separate the "core" TDP level handling from the nested EPT path to make
it clear that kvm_x86_ops.get_tdp_level() is used if and only if nested
EPT is not in use (kvm_init_shadow_ept_mmu() calculates the level from
the passed in vmcs12->eptp). Add a WARN_ON() to enforce that the
kvm_x86_ops hook is not called for nested EPT.
This sets the stage for snapshotting the non-"nested EPT" TDP page level
during kvm_cpuid_update() to avoid the retpoline associated with
kvm_x86_ops.get_tdp_level() when resetting the MMU, a relatively
frequent operation when running a nested guest.

Move CR0 caching into the standard register caching mechanism in order
to take advantage of the availability checks provided by regs_avail.
This avoids multiple VMREADs in the (uncommon) case where kvm_read_cr0()
is called multiple times in a single VM-Exit, and more importantly
eliminates a kvm_x86_ops hook, saves a retpoline on SVM when reading
CR0, and squashes the confusing naming discrepancy of "cache_reg" vs.
"decache_cr0_guest_bits".

Move CR4 caching into the standard register caching mechanism in order
to take advantage of the availability checks provided by regs_avail.
This avoids multiple VMREADs and retpolines (when configured) during
nested VMX transitions as kvm_read_cr4_bits() is invoked multiple times
on each transition, e.g. when stuffing CR0 and CR3.
As an added bonus, this eliminates a kvm_x86_ops hook, saves a retpoline
on SVM when reading CR4, and squashes the confusing naming discrepancy
of "cache_reg" vs. "decache_cr4_guest_bits".

Unconditionally check the validity of the incoming CR3 during nested
VM-Enter/VM-Exit to avoid invoking kvm_read_cr3() in the common case
where the guest isn't using PAE paging. If vmcs.GUEST_CR3 hasn't yet
been cached (common case), kvm_read_cr3() will trigger a VMREAD. The
VMREAD (~30 cycles) alone is likely slower than nested_cr3_valid()
(~5 cycles if vcpu->arch.maxphyaddr gets a cache hit), and the poor
exchange only gets worse when retpolines are enabled as the call to
kvm_x86_ops.cache_reg() will incur a retpoline (60+ cycles).

Skip the Indirect Branch Prediction Barrier that is triggered on a VMCS
switch when running with spectre_v2_user=on/auto if the switch is
between two VMCSes in the same guest, i.e. between vmcs01 and vmcs02.
The IBPB is intended to prevent one guest from attacking another, which
is unnecessary in the nested case as it's the same guest from KVM's
perspective.
This all but eliminates the overhead observed for nested VMX transitions
when running with CONFIG_RETPOLINE=y and spectre_v2_user=on/auto, which
can be significant, e.g. roughly 3x on current systems.
