For x86 this brings in PCID emulation and CR3 caching for shadow page
tables, nested VMX live migration, nested VMCS shadowing, an optimized
IPI hypercall, and some optimizations.
ARM will come next week.
There is a semantic conflict because tip also added an .init_platform
callback to kvm.c. Please keep the initializer from this branch,
and add a call to kvmclock_init (added by tip) inside kvm_init_platform
(added here).
Also, there is a backmerge from 4.18-rc6. This is because of a
refactoring that conflicted with a relatively late bugfix and
resulted in a particularly hellish conflict. Because the conflict
was only due to unfortunate timing of the bugfix, I backmerged and
rebased the refactoring rather than force the resolution on you.

Merge L1 Terminal Fault fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"L1TF, aka L1 Terminal Fault, is yet another speculative hardware
engineering trainwreck. It's a hardware vulnerability which allows
unprivileged speculative access to data which is available in the
Level 1 Data Cache when the page table entry controlling the virtual
address, which is used for the access, has the Present bit cleared or
other reserved bits set.
If an instruction accesses a virtual address for which the relevant
page table entry (PTE) has the Present bit cleared or other reserved
bits set, then speculative execution ignores the invalid PTE and loads
the referenced data if it is present in the Level 1 Data Cache, as if
the page referenced by the address bits in the PTE was still present
and accessible.
While this is a purely speculative mechanism and the instruction will
raise a page fault when it is retired eventually, the pure act of
loading the data and making it available to other speculative
instructions opens up the opportunity for side channel attacks to
unprivileged malicious code, similar to the Meltdown attack.
While Meltdown breaks the user space to kernel space protection, L1TF
allows to attack any physical memory address in the system and the
attack works across all protection domains. It allows an attack of SGX
and also works from inside virtual machines because the speculation
bypasses the extended page table (EPT) protection mechanism.
The assoicated CVEs are: CVE-2018-3615, CVE-2018-3620, CVE-2018-3646
The mitigations provided by this pull request include:
- Host side protection by inverting the upper address bits of a non
present page table entry so the entry points to uncacheable memory.
- Hypervisor protection by flushing L1 Data Cache on VMENTER.
- SMT (HyperThreading) control knobs, which allow to 'turn off' SMT
by offlining the sibling CPU threads. The knobs are available on
the kernel command line and at runtime via sysfs
- Control knobs for the hypervisor mitigation, related to L1D flush
and SMT control. The knobs are available on the kernel command line
and at runtime via sysfs
- Extensive documentation about L1TF including various degrees of
mitigations.
Thanks to all people who have contributed to this in various ways -
patches, review, testing, backporting - and the fruitful, sometimes
heated, but at the end constructive discussions.
There is work in progress to provide other forms of mitigations, which
might be less horrible performance wise for a particular kind of
workloads, but this is not yet ready for consumption due to their
complexity and limitations"

KVM never writes those fields to vmcs02.

When lazy save/restore of MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASE was introduced[1], the
MSR was intercepted in all modes and was only restored for the host
when the guest is in 64-bit mode. So at the time, going through the
full host restore prior to accessing MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASE was necessary
to load host state and was not a significant waste of cycles.
Later, MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASE interception was disabled for a 64-bit
guest[2], and then unconditionally saved/restored for the host[3].
As a result, loading full host state is overkill for accesses to
MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASE, and completely unnecessary when the guest is
not in 64-bit mode.
Add a dedicated utility to read/write the guest's MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASE
(outside of the save/restore flow) to minimize the overhead incurred
when accessing the MSR. When setting EFER, only decache the MSR if
the new EFER will disable long mode.
Removing out-of-band usage of vmx_load_host_state() also eliminates,
or at least reduces, potential corner cases in its usage, which in
turn will (hopefuly) make it easier to reason about future changes
to the save/restore flow, e.g. optimization of saving host state.

Using 'struct loaded_vmcs*' to track whether the CPU registers
contain host or guest state kills two birds with one stone.
1. The (effective) boolean host_state.loaded is poorly named.
It does not track whether or not host state is loaded into
the CPU registers (which most readers would expect), but
rather tracks if host state has been saved AND guest state
is loaded.
2. Using a loaded_vmcs pointer provides a more robust framework
for the optimized guest/host state switching, especially when
consideration per-VMCS enhancements. To that end, WARN_ONCE
if we try to switch to host state with a different VMCS than
was last used to save host state.

Use local variables in vmx_save_host_state() to temporarily track
the selector and base values for FS and GS, and reorganize the
code so that the 64-bit vs 32-bit portions are contained within
a single #ifdef. This refactoring paves the way for future patches
to modify the updating of VMCS state with minimal changes to the
code, and (hopefully) simplifies resolving a likely conflict with
another in-flight patch[1] by being the whipping boy for future
patches.

For nested virtualization L0 KVM is managing a bit of state for L2 guests,
this state can not be captured through the currently available IOCTLs. In
fact the state captured through all of these IOCTLs is usually a mix of L1
and L2 state. It is also dependent on whether the L2 guest was running at
the moment when the process was interrupted to save its state.
With this capability, there are two new vcpu ioctls: KVM_GET_NESTED_STATE
and KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE. These can be used for saving and restoring a VM
that is in VMX operation.

If the vCPU enters system management mode while running a nested guest,

however, the pages pointed to by the vmcs12 might be incorrectly
loaded from SMRAM. To avoid this, delay the handling of the pages
until just before the next vmentry. This is done with a new request

Linux does not support Memory Protection Extensions (MPX) in the
kernel itself, thus the BNDCFGS (Bound Config Supervisor) MSR will
always be zero in the KVM host, i.e. RDMSR in vmx_save_host_state()
is superfluous. KVM unconditionally sets VM_EXIT_CLEAR_BNDCFGS,
i.e. BNDCFGS will always be zero after VMEXIT, thus manually loading
BNDCFGS is also superfluous.
And in the event the MPX kernel support is added (unlikely given
that MPX for userspace is in its death throes[1]), BNDCFGS will
likely be common across all CPUs[2], and at the least shouldn't
change on a regular basis, i.e. saving the MSR on every VMENTRY is
completely unnecessary.
WARN_ONCE in hardware_setup() if the host's BNDCFGS is non-zero to
document that KVM does not preserve BNDCFGS and to serve as a hint
as to how BNDCFGS likely should be handled if MPX is used in the
kernel, e.g. BNDCFGS should be saved once during KVM setup.

For VMEXITs caused by external interrupts, vmx_handle_external_intr()
indirectly calls into the interrupt handlers through the host's IDT.
It follows that these interrupts get accounted for in the
kvm_cpu_l1tf_flush_l1d per-cpu flag.
The subsequently executed vmx_l1d_flush() will thus be aware that some
interrupts have happened and conduct a L1d flush anyway.

Part of the L1TF mitigation for vmx includes flushing the L1D cache upon
VMENTRY.
L1D flushes are costly and two modes of operations are provided to users:
"always" and the more selective "conditional" mode.
If operating in the latter, the cache would get flushed only if a host side
code path considered unconfined had been traversed. "Unconfined" in this
context means that it might have pulled in sensitive data like user data
or kernel crypto keys.
The need for L1D flushes is tracked by means of the per-vcpu flag
l1tf_flush_l1d. KVM exit handlers considered unconfined set it. A
vmx_l1d_flush() subsequently invoked before the next VMENTER will conduct a
L1d flush based on its value and reset that flag again.
Currently, interrupts delivered "normally" while in root operation between
VMEXIT and VMENTER are not taken into account. Part of the reason is that
these don't leave any traces and thus, the vmx code is unable to tell if
any such has happened.
As proposed by Paolo Bonzini, prepare for tracking all interrupts by
introducing a new per-cpu flag, "kvm_cpu_l1tf_flush_l1d". It will be in
strong analogy to the per-vcpu ->l1tf_flush_l1d.
A later patch will make interrupt handlers set it.
For the sake of cache locality, group kvm_cpu_l1tf_flush_l1d into x86'
per-cpu irq_cpustat_t as suggested by Peter Zijlstra.
Provide the helpers kvm_set_cpu_l1tf_flush_l1d(),
kvm_clear_cpu_l1tf_flush_l1d() and kvm_get_cpu_l1tf_flush_l1d(). Make them
trivial resp. non-existent for !CONFIG_KVM_INTEL as appropriate.
Let vmx_l1d_flush() handle kvm_cpu_l1tf_flush_l1d in the same way as
l1tf_flush_l1d.

Currently, vmx_vcpu_run() checks if l1tf_flush_l1d is set and invokes
vmx_l1d_flush() if so.
This test is unncessary for the "always flush L1D" mode.
Move the check to vmx_l1d_flush()'s conditional mode code path.
Notes:
- vmx_l1d_flush() is likely to get inlined anyway and thus, there's no
extra function call.
- This inverts the (static) branch prediction, but there hadn't been any
explicit likely()/unlikely() annotations before and so it stays as is.

The vmx_l1d_flush_always static key is only ever evaluated if
vmx_l1d_should_flush is enabled. In that case however, there are only two
L1d flushing modes possible: "always" and "conditional".
The "conditional" mode's implementation tends to require more sophisticated
logic than the "always" mode.
Avoid inverted logic by replacing the 'vmx_l1d_flush_always' static key
with a 'vmx_l1d_flush_cond' one.
There is no change in functionality.

vmx_l1d_flush() gets invoked only if l1tf_flush_l1d is true. There's no
point in setting l1tf_flush_l1d to true from there again.

VPID for the nested vcpu is allocated at vmx_create_vcpu whenever nested
vmx is turned on with the module parameter.
However, it's only freed if the L1 guest has executed VMXON which is not
a given.
As a result, on a system with nested==on every creation+deletion of an
L1 vcpu without running an L2 guest results in leaking one vpid. Since
the total number of vpids is limited to 64k, they can eventually get
exhausted, preventing L2 from starting.
Delay allocation of the L2 vpid until VMXON emulation, thus matching its
freeing.
