Certain x86 instructions that use modrm operands only allow memory operand
(i.e., mod012), and cause a #UD exception otherwise. KVM ignores this fact.
Currently, the instructions that are such and are emulated by KVM are MOVBE,
MOVNTPS, MOVNTPD and MOVNTI. MOVBE is the most blunt example, since it may be
emulated by the host regardless of MMIO.
The fix introduces a new group for handling such instructions, marking mod3 as
illegal instruction.

When injecting a floating interrupt and no CPU is idle we
kick one CPU to do an external exit. In case of I/O we
should trigger an I/O exit instead. This does not matter
for Linux guests as external and I/O interrupts are
enabled/disabled at the same time, but play safe anyway.
The same holds true for machine checks. Since there is no
special exit, just reuse the generic stop exit. The injection
code inside the VCPU loop will recheck anyway and rearm the
proper exits (e.g. control registers) if necessary.

A couple of our interception handlers rewind the PSW to the beginning
of the instruction to run the intercepted instruction again during the
next SIE entry. This normally works fine, but there is also the
possibility that the instruction did not get run directly but via an
EXECUTE instruction.
In this case, the PSW does not point to the instruction that caused the
interception, but to the EXECUTE instruction! So we've got to rewind the
PSW to the beginning of the EXECUTE instruction instead.

KVM ia64 is no longer present so new applications shouldn't use them.
The main problem is that they most likely didn't work even before,
because of a conflict in the #defines:
#define KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG _IOW(KVMIO, 0x9b, struct kvm_guest_debug)
#define KVM_IA64_VCPU_SET_STACK _IOW(KVMIO, 0x9b, void *)
The argument to KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG is:
struct kvm_guest_debug {
__u32 control;
__u32 pad;
struct kvm_guest_debug_arch arch;
};
struct kvm_guest_debug_arch {
};
meaning that sizeof(struct kvm_guest_debug) == sizeof(void *) == 8
and KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG == KVM_IA64_VCPU_SET_STACK.
KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG is handled in virt/kvm/kvm_main.c before even calling
kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl (which would have handled KVM_IA64_VCPU_SET_STACK),
so KVM_IA64_VCPU_SET_STACK would just return -EINVAL.

When segment is accessed, real hardware does not perform any privilege level
checks. In contrast, KVM emulator does. This causes some discrepencies from
real hardware. For instance, reading from readable code segment may fail due to
incorrect segment checks. In addition, it introduces unnecassary overhead.
To reference Intel SDM 5.5 ("Privilege Levels"): "Privilege levels are checked
when the segment selector of a segment descriptor is loaded into a segment
register." The SDM never mentions privilege level checks during memory access,
except for loading far pointers in section 5.10 ("Pointer Validation"). Those
are actually segment selector loads and are emulated in the similarily (i.e.,
regardless to __linearize checks).
This behavior was also checked using sysexit. A data-segment whose DPL=0 was
loaded, and after sysexit (CPL=3) it is still accessible.
Therefore, all the privilege level checks in __linearize are removed.

When performing segmented-read/write in the emulator for stack operations, it
ignores the stack size, and uses the ad_bytes as indication for the pointer
size. As a result, a wrong address may be accessed.
To fix this behavior, we can remove the masking of address in __linearize and
perform it beforehand. It is already done for the operands (so currently it is
inefficiently done twice). It is missing in two cases:
1. When using rip_relative
2. On fetch_bit_operand that changes the address.
This patch masks the address on these two occassions, and removes the masking
from __linearize.
Note that it does not mask EIP during fetch. In protected/legacy mode code
fetch when RIP >= 2^32 should result in #GP and not wrap-around. Since we make
limit checks within __linearize, this is the expected behavior.

apic_find_highest_irr assumes irr_pending is set if any vector in APIC_IRR is
set. If this assumption is broken and apicv is disabled, the injection of
interrupts may be deferred until another interrupt is delivered to the guest.
Ultimately, if no other interrupt should be injected to that vCPU, the pending
interrupt may be lost.
commit 56cc2406d6 ("KVM: nVMX: fix "acknowledge interrupt on exit" when APICv
is in use") changed the behavior of apic_clear_irr so irr_pending is cleared
after setting APIC_IRR vector. After this commit, if apic_set_irr and
apic_clear_irr run simultaneously, a race may occur, resulting in APIC_IRR
vector set, and irr_pending cleared. In the following example, assume a single
vector is set in IRR prior to calling apic_clear_irr:
apic_set_irr apic_clear_irr
------------ --------------
apic->irr_pending = true;
apic_clear_vector(...);
vec = apic_search_irr(apic);
// => vec == -1
apic_set_vector(...);
apic->irr_pending = (vec != -1);
// => apic->irr_pending == false
Nonetheless, it appears the race might even occur prior to this commit:
apic_set_irr apic_clear_irr
------------ --------------
apic->irr_pending = true;
apic->irr_pending = false;
apic_clear_vector(...);
if (apic_search_irr(apic) != -1)
apic->irr_pending = true;
// => apic->irr_pending == false
apic_set_vector(...);
Fixing this issue by:
1. Restoring the previous behavior of apic_clear_irr: clear irr_pending, call
apic_clear_vector, and then if APIC_IRR is non-zero, set irr_pending.
2. On apic_set_irr: first call apic_set_vector, then set irr_pending.

Logical destination mode can be used to send NMI IPIs even when all
APICs are software disabled, so if all APICs are software disabled we
should still look at the DFRs.
So the DFRs should all be the same, even if some or all APICs are
software disabled. However, the SDM does not say this, so tweak
the logic as follows:
- if one APIC is enabled and has LDR != 0, use that one to build the map.
This picks the right DFR in case an OS is only setting it for the
software-enabled APICs, or in case an OS is using logical addressing
on some APICs while leaving the rest in reset state (using LDR was
suggested by Radim).
- if all APICs are disabled, pick a random one to build the map.
We use the last one with LDR != 0 for simplicity.

Currently, the APIC logical map does not consider VCPUs whose local-apic is
software-disabled. However, NMIs, INIT, etc. should still be delivered to such

To address this issue, first find the APIC mode, and only then construct the

Commit 3b32004a66 ("KVM: x86: movnti minimum op size of 32-bit is not kept")
did not fully fix the minimum operand size of MONTI emulation. Still, MOVNTI
may be mistakenly performed using 16-bit opsize.
This patch add No16 flag to mark an instruction does not support 16-bits
operand size.
