Avi Kivity 019960ae99 KVM: VMX: Don't adjust tsc offset forward
Most Intel hosts have a stable tsc, and playing with the offset only
reduces accuracy.  By limiting tsc offset adjustment only to forward updates,
we effectively disable tsc offset adjustment on these hosts.

Joerg Roedel 9f62e19a11 KVM: VMX: unifdef the EFER specific code
To allow access to the EFER register in 32bit KVM the EFER specific code has to
be exported to the x86 generic code. This patch does this in a backwards
compatible manner.

Joerg Roedel 50a37eb4e0 KVM: align valid EFER bits with the features of the host system
This patch aligns the bits the guest can set in the EFER register with the
features in the host processor. Currently it lets EFER.NX disabled if the
processor does not support it and enables EFER.LME and EFER.LMA only for KVM on
64 bit hosts.

Avi Kivity 5dc8326282 KVM: VMX: Restore tss even on x86_64
The vmx hardware state restore restores the tss selector and base address, but
not its length.  Usually, this does not matter since most of the tss contents
is within the default length of 0x67.  However, if a process is using ioperm()
to grant itself I/O port permissions, an additional bitmap within the tss,
but outside the default length is consulted.  The effect is that the process
will receive a SIGSEGV instead of transparently accessing the port.

Fix by restoring the tss length.  Note that i386 had this working already.

Closes bugzilla 10246.

Avi Kivity 33f9c505ed KVM: VMX: Avoid rearranging switched guest msrs while they are loaded
KVM tries to run as much as possible with the guest msrs loaded instead of
host msrs, since switching msrs is very expensive.  It also tries to minimize
the number of msrs switched according to the guest mode; for example,
MSR_LSTAR is needed only by long mode guests.  This optimization is done by
setup_msrs().

However, we must not change which msrs are switched while we are running with
guest msr state:

 - switch to guest msr state
 - call setup_msrs(), removing some msrs from the list
 - switch to host msr state, leaving a few guest msrs loaded

An easy way to trigger this is to kexec an x86_64 linux guest.  Early during
setup, the guest will switch EFER to not include SCE.  KVM will stop saving
MSR_LSTAR, and on the next msr switch it will leave the guest LSTAR loaded.
The next host syscall will end up in a random location in the kernel.

Fix by reloading the host msrs before changing the msr list.

Sheng Yang 571008dacc KVM: x86 emulator: Only allow VMCALL/VMMCALL trapped by #UD
When executing a test program called "crashme", we found the KVM guest cannot
survive more than ten seconds, then encounterd kernel panic. The basic concept
of "crashme" is generating random assembly code and trying to execute it.

After some fixes on emulator insn validity judgment, we found it's hard to
get the current emulator handle the invalid instructions correctly, for the
#UD trap for hypercall patching caused troubles. The problem is, if the opcode
itself was OK, but combination of opcode and modrm_reg was invalid, and one
operand of the opcode was memory (SrcMem or DstMem), the emulator will fetch
the memory operand first rather than checking the validity, and may encounter
an error there. For example, ".byte 0xfe, 0x34, 0xcd" has this problem.

In the patch, we simply check that if the invalid opcode wasn't vmcall/vmmcall,
then return from emulate_instruction() and inject a #UD to guest. With the
patch, the guest had been running for more than 12 hours.
