registered. Merge it with kvm_coalesced_pio_listener in a single

If we update an existing memslot (e.g., resize, split), we temporarily
remove the memslot to re-add it immediately afterwards. These updates
are not atomic, especially not for KVM VCPU threads, such that we can
get spurious faults.
Let's inhibit most KVM ioctls while performing relevant updates, such
that we can perform the update just as if it would happen atomically
without additional kernel support.
We capture the add/del changes and apply them in the notifier commit
stage instead. There, we can check for overlaps and perform the ioctl
inhibiting only if really required (-> overlap).
To keep things simple we don't perform additional checks that wouldn't
actually result in an overlap -- such as !RAM memory regions in some
cases (see kvm_set_phys_mem()).
To minimize cache-line bouncing, use a separate indicator
(in_ioctl_lock) per CPU. Also, make sure to hold the kvm_slots_lock
while performing both actions (removing+re-adding).
We have to wait until all IOCTLs were exited and block new ones from
getting executed.
This approach cannot result in a deadlock as long as the inhibitor does
not hold any locks that might hinder an IOCTL from getting finished and
exited - something fairly unusual. The inhibitor will always hold the BQL.
AFAIKs, one possible candidate would be userfaultfd. If a page cannot be
placed (e.g., during postcopy), because we're waiting for a lock, or if the
userfaultfd thread cannot process a fault, because it is waiting for a
lock, there could be a deadlock. However, the BQL is not applicable here,
because any other guest memory access while holding the BQL would already
result in a deadlock.
Nothing else in the kernel should block forever and wait for userspace
intervention.
Note: pause_all_vcpus()/resume_all_vcpus() or
start_exclusive()/end_exclusive() cannot be used, as they either drop
the BQL or require to be called without the BQL - something inhibitors
cannot handle. We need a low-level locking mechanism that is
deadlock-free even when not releasing the BQL.

There are cases that malicious virtual machine can cause CPU stuck (due
to event windows don't open up), e.g., infinite loop in microcode when
nested #AC (CVE-2015-5307). No event window means no event (NMI, SMI and
IRQ) can be delivered. It leads the CPU to be unavailable to host or
other VMs. Notify VM exit is introduced to mitigate such kind of
attacks, which will generate a VM exit if no event window occurs in VM
non-root mode for a specified amount of time (notify window).
A new KVM capability KVM_CAP_X86_NOTIFY_VMEXIT is exposed to user space
so that the user can query the capability and set the expected notify
window when creating VMs. The format of the argument when enabling this
capability is as follows:
Bit 63:32 - notify window specified in qemu command
Bit 31:0 - some flags (e.g. KVM_X86_NOTIFY_VMEXIT_ENABLED is set to
enable the feature.)
Users can configure the feature by a new (x86 only) accel property:
qemu -accel kvm,notify-vmexit=run|internal-error|disable,notify-window=n
The default option of notify-vmexit is run, which will enable the
capability and do nothing if the exit happens. The internal-error option
raises a KVM internal error if it happens. The disable option does not
enable the capability. The default value of notify-window is 0. It is valid
only when notify-vmexit is not disabled. The valid range of notify-window
is non-negative. It is even safe to set it to zero since there's an
internal hardware threshold to be added to ensure no false positive.
Because a notify VM exit may happen with VM_CONTEXT_INVALID set in exit
qualification (no cases are anticipated that would set this bit), which
means VM context is corrupted. It would be reflected in the flags of
KVM_EXIT_NOTIFY exit. If KVM_NOTIFY_CONTEXT_INVALID bit is set, raise a KVM
internal error unconditionally.

etc.
The three load-acquire in CPU0 synchronize with the three store-release
in CPU2, but CPU0 and CPU1 are only synchronized up to gfn1 and CPU1
may miss gfn2's fields other than flags.
The kernel must be able to cope with invalid values of the fields, and
userspace *will* invoke the ioctl once more. However, once the RESET flag
is cleared on gfn2, it is lost forever, therefore in the above scenario
CPU1 must read the correct value of gfn2's fields.
Therefore RESET must be set with a store-release, that will synchronize
with KVM's load-acquire in CPU1.

The KVM_DIRTY_GFN_F_DIRTY flag ensures that the entry is valid. If
the read of the fields are not ordered after the read of the flag,
QEMU might see stale values.

-M none creates a guest without a vCPU, causing the following error:
$ ./qemu-system-x86_64 -qmp stdio -M none -accel kvm
{execute:qmp_capabilities}
{"return": {}}
{execute: query-stats-schemas}
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
Fix it by not querying the vCPU stats if first_cpu is NULL.
