Huaitong Han be94f6b710 KVM, pkeys: add pkeys support for permission_fault
Protection keys define a new 4-bit protection key field (PKEY) in bits
62:59 of leaf entries of the page tables, the PKEY is an index to PKRU
register(16 domains), every domain has 2 bits(write disable bit, access
disable bit).

Static logic has been produced in update_pkru_bitmask, dynamic logic need
read pkey from page table entries, get pkru value, and deduce the correct
result.

[ Huaitong: Xiao helps to modify many sections. ]

Paolo Bonzini f077825a87 KVM: x86: API changes for SMM support
This patch includes changes to the external API for SMM support.
Userspace can predicate the availability of the new fields and
ioctls on a new capability, KVM_CAP_X86_SMM, which is added at the end
of the patch series.

Avi Kivity e4e517b4be KVM: MMU: Do not unconditionally read PDPTE from guest memory
Architecturally, PDPTEs are cached in the PDPTRs when CR3 is reloaded.
On SVM, it is not possible to implement this, but on VMX this is possible
and was indeed implemented until nested SVM changed this to unconditionally
read PDPTEs dynamically.  This has noticable impact when running PAE guests.

Fix by changing the MMU to read PDPTRs from the cache, falling back to
reading from memory for the nested MMU.

Avi Kivity aff48baa34 KVM: Fetch guest cr3 from hardware on demand
Instead of syncing the guest cr3 every exit, which is expensince on vmx
with ept enabled, sync it only on demand.

Joerg Roedel ec9e60b219 KVM: X86: Introduce generic guest-mode representation
This patch introduces a generic representation of guest-mode
fpr a vcpu. This currently only exists in the SVM code.
Having this representation generic will help making the
non-svm code aware of nesting when this is necessary.

Joerg Roedel d41d1895eb KVM: MMU: Introduce kvm_pdptr_read_mmu
This function is implemented to load the pdptr pointers of
the currently running guest (l1 or l2 guest). Therefore it
takes care about the current paging mode and can read pdptrs
out of l2 guest physical memory.

Joerg Roedel ff03a073e7 KVM: MMU: Add kvm_mmu parameter to load_pdptrs function
This function need to be able to load the pdptrs from any
mmu context currently in use. So change this function to
take an kvm_mmu parameter to fit these needs.
As a side effect this patch also moves the cached pdptrs
from vcpu_arch into the kvm_mmu struct.

Dexuan Cui 2acf923e38 KVM: VMX: Enable XSAVE/XRSTOR for guest
This patch enable guest to use XSAVE/XRSTOR instructions.

We assume that host_xcr0 would use all possible bits that OS supported.

And we loaded xcr0 in the same way we handled fpu - do it as late as we can.

Avi Kivity 8ae0991276 KVM: Optimize kvm_read_cr[04]_bits()
'mask' is always a constant, so we can check whether it includes a bit that
might be owned by the guest very cheaply, and avoid the decache call.  Saves
a few hundred bytes of module text.

Avi Kivity fc78f51938 KVM: Add accessor for reading cr4 (or some bits of cr4)
Some bits of cr4 can be owned by the guest on vmx, so when we read them,
we copy them to the vcpu structure.  In preparation for making the set of
guest-owned bits dynamic, use helpers to access these bits so we don't need
to know where the bit resides.

No changes to svm since all bits are host-owned there.

Marcelo Tosatti 5fdbf9765b KVM: x86: accessors for guest registers
As suggested by Avi, introduce accessors to read/write guest registers.
This simplifies the ->cache_regs/->decache_regs interface, and improves
register caching which is important for VMX, where the cost of
vmcs_read/vmcs_write is significant.
