If we let L1 use EPT, we should probably also support the INVEPT instruction.
In our current nested EPT implementation, when L1 changes its EPT table
for L2 (i.e., EPT12), L0 modifies the shadow EPT table (EPT02), and in
the course of this modification already calls INVEPT. But if last level
of shadow page is unsync not all L1's changes to EPT12 are intercepted,
which means roots need to be synced when L1 calls INVEPT. Global INVEPT
should not be different since roots are synced by kvm_mmu_load() each
time EPTP02 changes.

KVM's existing shadow MMU code already supports nested TDP. To use it, we
need to set up a new "MMU context" for nested EPT, and create a few callbacks
for it (nested_ept_*()). This context should also use the EPT versions of
the page table access functions (defined in the previous patch).
Then, we need to switch back and forth between this nested context and the
regular MMU context when switching between L1 and L2 (when L1 runs this L2
with EPT).

The existing code for handling cr3 and related VMCS fields during nested
exit and entry wasn't correct in all cases:
If L2 is allowed to control cr3 (and this is indeed the case in nested EPT),
during nested exit we must copy the modified cr3 from vmcs02 to vmcs12, and
we forgot to do so. This patch adds this copy.
If L0 isn't controlling cr3 when running L2 (i.e., L0 is using EPT), and
whoever does control cr3 (L1 or L2) is using PAE, the processor might have
saved PDPTEs and we should also save them in vmcs12 (and restore later).

Recent KVM, since http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-kvm/2010/5/2/6261577
switch the EFER MSR when EPT is used and the host and guest have different
NX bits. So if we add support for nested EPT (L1 guest using EPT to run L2)
and want to be able to run recent KVM as L1, we need to allow L1 to use this
EFER switching feature.
To do this EFER switching, KVM uses VM_ENTRY/EXIT_LOAD_IA32_EFER if available,
and if it isn't, it uses the generic VM_ENTRY/EXIT_MSR_LOAD. This patch adds
support for the former (the latter is still unsupported).
Nested entry and exit emulation (prepare_vmcs_02 and load_vmcs12_host_state,
respectively) already handled VM_ENTRY/EXIT_LOAD_IA32_EFER correctly. So all
that's left to do in this patch is to properly advertise this feature to L1.
Note that vmcs12's VM_ENTRY/EXIT_LOAD_IA32_EFER are emulated by L0, by using
vmx_set_efer (which itself sets one of several vmcs02 fields), so we always
support this feature, regardless of whether the host supports it.

Add a tracepoint write_tsc_offset for tracing TSC offset change.
We want to merge ftrace's trace data of guest OSs and the host OS using
TSC for timestamp in chronological order. We need "TSC offset" values for
each guest when merge those because the TSC value on a guest is always the
host TSC plus guest's TSC offset. If we get the TSC offset values, we can
calculate the host TSC value for each guest events from the TSC offset and
the event TSC value. The host TSC values of the guest events are used when we
want to merge trace data of guests and the host in chronological order.
(Note: the trace_clock of both the host and the guest must be set x86-tsc in
this case)
This tracepoint also records vcpu_id which can be used to merge trace data for
SMP guests. A merge tool will read TSC offset for each vcpu, then the tool
converts guest TSC values to host TSC values for each vcpu.
TSC offset is stored in the VMCS by vmx_write_tsc_offset() or
vmx_adjust_tsc_offset(). KVM executes the former function when a guest boots.
The latter function is executed when kvm clock is updated. Only host can read
TSC offset value from VMCS, so a host needs to output TSC offset value
when TSC offset is changed.
Since the TSC offset is not often changed, it could be overwritten by other
frequent events while tracing. To avoid that, I recommend to use a special
instance for getting this event:
1. set a instance before booting a guest
# cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances
# mkdir tsc_offset
# cd tsc_offset
# echo x86-tsc > trace_clock
# echo 1 > events/kvm/kvm_write_tsc_offset/enable
2. boot a guest

This patch tries to introduce a very simple and scale way to invalidate
all mmio sptes - it need not walk any shadow pages and hold mmu-lock
KVM maintains a global mmio valid generation-number which is stored in
kvm->memslots.generation and every mmio spte stores the current global
generation-number into his available bits when it is created
When KVM need zap all mmio sptes, it just simply increase the global
generation-number. When guests do mmio access, KVM intercepts a MMIO #PF
then it walks the shadow page table and get the mmio spte. If the
generation-number on the spte does not equal the global generation-number,
it will go to the normal #PF handler to update the mmio spte
Since 19 bits are used to store generation-number on mmio spte, we zap all
mmio sptes when the number is round

Allocate a shadow vmcs used by the processor to shadow part of the fields
stored in the software defined VMCS12 (let L1 access fields without causing
exits). Note we keep a shadow vmcs only for the current vmcs12. Once a vmcs12
becomes non-current, its shadow vmcs is released.

handle_vmon doesn't check if L1 is already in root mode (VMXON
was previously called). This patch adds this missing check and calls
nested_vmx_failValid if VMX is already ON.
We need this check because L0 will allocate the shadow vmcs when L1
executes VMXON and we want to avoid host leaks (due to shadow vmcs
allocation) if L1 executes VMXON repeatedly.

Refactor existent code so we re-use vmcs12_write_any to copy fields from the
shadow vmcs specified by the link pointer (used by the processor,
implementation-specific) to the VMCS12 software format used by L0 to hold
the fields in L1 memory address space.

Prepare vmread and vmwrite bitmaps according to a pre-specified list of fields.
These lists are intended to specifiy most frequent accessed fields so we can
minimize the number of fields that are copied from/to the software controlled
VMCS12 format to/from to processor-specific shadow vmcs. The lists were built
measuring the VMCS fields access rate after L2 Ubuntu 12.04 booted when it was
running on top of L1 KVM, also Ubuntu 12.04. Note that during boot there were
additional fields which were frequently modified but they were not added to
these lists because after boot these fields were not longer accessed by L1.
