Originally, __kvm_sync_page used to check the cr4_pae bit in the role
to avoid zapping 4-byte kvm_mmu_pages when guest page size are 8-byte
or the other way round. However, in commit 47c42e6b41 ("KVM: x86: fix
handling of role.cr4_pae and rename it to 'gpte_size'", 2019-03-28) it
was observed that this did not work for nested EPT, where the page table
size would be 8 bytes even if CR4.PAE=0. (Note that the check still
has to be done for nested *NPT*, so it is not possible to use tdp_enabled
or similar).
Therefore, a hack was introduced to identify nested EPT shadow pages
and unconditionally call __kvm_sync_page() on them. However, it is
possible to do without the hack to identify nested EPT shadow pages:
if EPT is active, there will be no shadow pages in non-EPT format,
and all of them will have gpte_is_8_bytes set to true; we can just
check the MMU role directly, and the test will always be true.
Even for non-EPT shadow MMUs, this test should really always be true
now that __kvm_sync_page() is called if and only if the role is an
exact match (kvm_mmu_get_page()) or is part of the current MMU context
(kvm_mmu_sync_roots()). A future commit will convert the likely-pointless
check into a meaningful WARN to enforce that the mmu_roles of the current
context and the shadow page are compatible.

When creating a new upper-level shadow page, zap unsync shadow pages at
the same target gfn instead of attempting to sync the pages. This fixes
a bug where an unsync shadow page could be sync'd with an incompatible
context, e.g. wrong smm, is_guest, etc... flags. In practice, the bug is
relatively benign as sync_page() is all but guaranteed to fail its check
that the guest's desired gfn (for the to-be-sync'd page) matches the
current gfn associated with the shadow page. I.e. kvm_sync_page() would
end up zapping the page anyways.
Alternatively, __kvm_sync_page() could be modified to explicitly verify
the mmu_role of the unsync shadow page is compatible with the current MMU
context. But, except for this specific case, __kvm_sync_page() is called
iff the page is compatible, e.g. the transient sync in kvm_mmu_get_page()
requires an exact role match, and the call from kvm_sync_mmu_roots() is
only synchronizing shadow pages from the current MMU (which better be
compatible or KVM has problems). And as described above, attempting to
sync shadow pages when creating an upper-level shadow page is unlikely
to succeed, e.g. zero successful syncs were observed when running Linux
guests despite over a million attempts.

Warn userspace that KVM_SET_CPUID{,2} after KVM_RUN "may" cause guest
instability. Initialize last_vmentry_cpu to -1 and use it to detect if
the vCPU has been run at least once when its CPUID model is changed.
KVM does not correctly handle changes to paging related settings in the
guest's vCPU model after KVM_RUN, e.g. MAXPHYADDR, GBPAGES, etc... KVM
could theoretically zap all shadow pages, but actually making that happen
is a mess due to lock inversion (vcpu->mutex is held). And even then,
updating paging settings on the fly would only work if all vCPUs are
stopped, updated in concert with identical settings, then restarted.
To support running vCPUs with different vCPU models (that affect paging),
KVM would need to track all relevant information in kvm_mmu_page_role.
Note, that's the _page_ role, not the full mmu_role. Updating mmu_role
isn't sufficient as a vCPU can reuse a shadow page translation that was
created by a vCPU with different settings and thus completely skip the
reserved bit checks (that are tied to CPUID).
Tracking CPUID state in kvm_mmu_page_role is _extremely_ undesirable as
it would require doubling gfn_track from a u16 to a u32, i.e. would
increase KVM's memory footprint by 2 bytes for every 4kb of guest memory.
E.g. MAXPHYADDR (6 bits), GBPAGES, AMD vs. INTEL = 1 bit, and SEV C-BIT
would all need to be tracked.
In practice, there is no remotely sane use case for changing any paging
related CPUID entries on the fly, so just sweep it under the rug (after
yelling at userspace).

Invalidate all MMUs' roles after a CPUID update to force reinitizliation
of the MMU context/helpers. Despite the efforts of commit de3ccd26fa
("KVM: MMU: record maximum physical address width in kvm_mmu_extended_role"),
there are still a handful of CPUID-based properties that affect MMU
behavior but are not incorporated into mmu_role. E.g. 1gb hugepage
support, AMD vs. Intel handling of bit 8, and SEV's C-Bit location all
factor into the guest's reserved PTE bits.
The obvious alternative would be to add all such properties to mmu_role,
but doing so provides no benefit over simply forcing a reinitialization
on every CPUID update, as setting guest CPUID is a rare operation.
Note, reinitializing all MMUs after a CPUID update does not fix all of
KVM's woes. Specifically, kvm_mmu_page_role doesn't track the CPUID
properties, which means that a vCPU can reuse shadow pages that should
not exist for the new vCPU model, e.g. that map GPAs that are now illegal
(due to MAXPHYADDR changes) or that set bits that are now reserved
(PAGE_SIZE for 1gb pages), etc...
Tracking the relevant CPUID properties in kvm_mmu_page_role would address
the majority of problems, but fully tracking that much state in the
shadow page role comes with an unpalatable cost as it would require a
non-trivial increase in KVM's memory footprint. The GBPAGES case is even
worse, as neither Intel nor AMD provides a way to disable 1gb hugepage
support in the hardware page walker, i.e. it's a virtualization hole that
can't be closed when using TDP.
In other words, resetting the MMU after a CPUID update is largely a
superficial fix. But, it will allow reverting the tracking of MAXPHYADDR
in the mmu_role, and that case in particular needs to mostly work because
KVM's shadow_root_level depends on guest MAXPHYADDR when 5-level paging
is supported. For cases where KVM botches guest behavior, the damage is
limited to that guest. But for the shadow_root_level, a misconfigured
MMU can cause KVM to incorrectly access memory, e.g. due to walking off
the end of its shadow page tables.

Restore CR4.LA57 to the mmu_role to fix an amusing edge case with nested
virtualization. When KVM (L0) is using TDP, CR4.LA57 is not reflected in
mmu_role.base.level because that tracks the shadow root level, i.e. TDP
level. Normally, this is not an issue because LA57 can't be toggled
while long mode is active, i.e. the guest has to first disable paging,
then toggle LA57, then re-enable paging, thus ensuring an MMU
reinitialization.
But if L1 is crafty, it can load a new CR4 on VM-Exit and toggle LA57
without having to bounce through an unpaged section. L1 can also load a
new CR3 on exit, i.e. it doesn't even need to play crazy paging games, a
single entry PML5 is sufficient. Such shenanigans are only problematic
if L0 and L1 use TDP, otherwise L1 and L2 share an MMU that gets
reinitialized on nested VM-Enter/VM-Exit due to mmu_role.base.guest_mode.
Note, in the L2 case with nested TDP, even though L1 can switch between
L2s with different LA57 settings, thus bypassing the paging requirement,
in that case KVM's nested_mmu will track LA57 in base.level.

Reset the MMU context at vCPU INIT (and RESET for good measure) if CR0.PG
was set prior to INIT. Simply re-initializing the current MMU is not
sufficient as the current root HPA may not be usable in the new context.
E.g. if TDP is disabled and INIT arrives while the vCPU is in long mode,
KVM will fail to switch to the 32-bit pae_root and bomb on the next
VM-Enter due to running with a 64-bit CR3 in 32-bit mode.
This bug was papered over in both VMX and SVM, but still managed to rear
its head in the MMU role on VMX. Because EFER.LMA=1 requires CR0.PG=1,
kvm_calc_shadow_mmu_root_page_role() checks for EFER.LMA without first
checking CR0.PG. VMX's RESET/INIT flow writes CR0 before EFER, and so
an INIT with the vCPU in 64-bit mode will cause the hack-a-fix to
generate the wrong MMU role.
In VMX, the INIT issue is specific to running without unrestricted guest
since unrestricted guest is available if and only if EPT is enabled.
Commit 8668a3c468 ("KVM: VMX: Reset mmu context when entering real
mode") resolved the issue by forcing a reset when entering emulated real
mode.
In SVM, commit ebae871a50 ("kvm: svm: reset mmu on VCPU reset") forced
a MMU reset on every INIT to workaround the flaw in common x86. Note, at
the time the bug was fixed, the SVM problem was exacerbated by a complete
lack of a CR4 update.
The vendor resets will be reverted in future patches, primarily to aid
bisection in case there are non-INIT flows that rely on the existing VMX
logic.
Because CR0.PG is unconditionally cleared on INIT, and because CR0.WP and
all CR4/EFER paging bits are ignored if CR0.PG=0, simply checking that
CR0.PG was '1' prior to INIT/RESET is sufficient to detect a required MMU
context reset.

This new API provides a file descriptor for every VM and VCPU to read
KVM statistics data in binary format.
It is meant to provide a lightweight, flexible, scalable and efficient
lock-free solution for user space telemetry applications to pull the
statistics data periodically for large scale systems. The pulling
frequency could be as high as a few times per second.
The statistics descriptors are defined by KVM in kernel and can be
by userspace to discover VM/VCPU statistics during the one-time setup
stage.
The statistics data itself could be read out by userspace telemetry
periodically without any extra parsing or setup effort.
There are a few existed interface protocols and definitions, but no
one can fulfil all the requirements this interface implemented as
below:
1. During high frequency periodic stats reading, there should be no
extra efforts except the stats data read itself.
2. Support stats annotation, like type (cumulative, instantaneous,
peak, histogram, etc) and unit (counter, time, size, cycles, etc).
3. The stats data reading should be free of lock/synchronization. We
don't care about the consistency between all the stats data. All
stats data can not be read out at exactly the same time. We really
care about the change or trend of the stats data. The lock-free
solution is not just for efficiency and scalability, also for the
stats data accuracy and usability. For example, in the situation
that all the stats data readings are protected by a global lock,
if one VCPU died somehow with that lock held, then all stats data
reading would be blocked, then we have no way from stats data that
which VCPU has died.
4. The stats data reading workload can be handed over to other
unprivileged process.

This commit defines the API for userspace and prepare the common
functionalities to support per VM/VCPU binary stats data readings.
The KVM stats now is only accessible by debugfs, which has some
shortcomings this change series are supposed to fix:
1. The current debugfs stats solution in KVM could be disabled
when kernel Lockdown mode is enabled, which is a potential
rick for production.
2. The current debugfs stats solution in KVM is organized as "one
stats per file", it is good for debugging, but not efficient
for production.
3. The stats read/clear in current debugfs solution in KVM are
protected by the global kvm_lock.
Besides that, there are some other benefits with this change:
1. All KVM VM/VCPU stats can be read out in a bulk by one copy
to userspace.
2. A schema is used to describe KVM statistics. From userspace's
perspective, the KVM statistics are self-describing.
3. With the fd-based solution, a separate telemetry would be able
to read KVM stats in a less privileged environment.
4. After the initial setup by reading in stats descriptors, a
telemetry only needs to read the stats data itself, no more
parsing or setup is needed.

Generic KVM stats are those collected in architecture independent code
or those supported by all architectures; put all generic statistics in
a separate structure. This ensures that they are defined the same way
in the statistics API which is being added, removing duplication among
different architectures in the declaration of the descriptors.
No functional change intended.

Treat a NULL shadow page in the "is a TDP MMU" check as valid, non-TDP
root. KVM uses a "direct" PAE paging MMU when TDP is disabled and the
guest is running with paging disabled. In that case, root_hpa points at
the pae_root page (of which only 32 bytes are used), not a standard
shadow page, and the WARN fires (a lot).

Add an x86-only test to verify that x86's MMU reacts to CPUID updates
that impact the MMU. KVM has had multiple bugs where it fails to
reconfigure the MMU after the guest's vCPU model changes.
Sadly, this test is effectively limited to shadow paging because the
hardware page walk handler doesn't support software disabling of GBPAGES
support, and KVM doesn't manually walk the GVA->GPA on faults for
performance reasons (doing so would large defeat the benefits of TDP).
Don't require !TDP for the tests as there is still value in running the
tests with TDP, even though the tests will fail (barring KVM hacks).
E.g. KVM should not completely explode if MAXPHYADDR results in KVM using
4-level vs. 5-level paging for the guest.

In preparation for adding hugepage support, replace "pageMapL4Entry",
"pageDirectoryPointerEntry", and "pageDirectoryEntry" with a common
"pageUpperEntry", and add a helper to create an upper level entry. All
upper level entries have the same layout, using unique structs provides
minimal value and requires a non-trivial amount of code duplication.

Use KVM_UTIL_MIN_ADDR as the minimum for x86-64's CPUID array. The
system page size was likely used as the minimum because _something_ had
to be provided. Increasing the min from 0x1000 to 0x2000 should have no
meaningful impact on the test, and will allow changing vm_vaddr_alloc()
to use KVM_UTIL_MIN_VADDR as the default.
