Paolo Bonzini 9352e7470a Merge remote-tracking branch 'kvm/queue' into HEAD
x86 Xen-for-KVM:

* Allow the Xen runstate information to cross a page boundary

* Allow XEN_RUNSTATE_UPDATE flag behaviour to be configured

* add support for 32-bit guests in SCHEDOP_poll

x86 fixes:

* One-off fixes for various emulation flows (SGX, VMXON, NRIPS=0).

* Reinstate IBPB on emulated VM-Exit that was incorrectly dropped a few
   years back when eliminating unnecessary barriers when switching between
   vmcs01 and vmcs02.

* Clean up the MSR filter docs.

* Clean up vmread_error_trampoline() to make it more obvious that params
  must be passed on the stack, even for x86-64.

* Let userspace set all supported bits in MSR_IA32_FEAT_CTL irrespective
  of the current guest CPUID.

* Fudge around a race with TSC refinement that results in KVM incorrectly
  thinking a guest needs TSC scaling when running on a CPU with a
  constant TSC, but no hardware-enumerated TSC frequency.

* Advertise (on AMD) that the SMM_CTL MSR is not supported

* Remove unnecessary exports

Selftests:

* Fix an inverted check in the access tracking perf test, and restore
  support for asserting that there aren't too many idle pages when
  running on bare metal.

* Fix an ordering issue in the AMX test introduced by recent conversions
  to use kvm_cpu_has(), and harden the code to guard against similar bugs
  in the future.  Anything that tiggers caching of KVM's supported CPUID,
  kvm_cpu_has() in this case, effectively hides opt-in XSAVE features if
  the caching occurs before the test opts in via prctl().

* Fix build errors that occur in certain setups (unsure exactly what is
  unique about the problematic setup) due to glibc overriding
  static_assert() to a variant that requires a custom message.

* Introduce actual atomics for clear/set_bit() in selftests

Documentation:

* Remove deleted ioctls from documentation

* Various fixes

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
