To support TDX, KVM is enhanced to operate with #VE. For TDX, KVM uses the
suppress #VE bit in EPT entries selectively, in order to be able to trap
non-present conditions. However, #VE isn't used for VMX and it's a bug
if it happens. To be defensive and test that VMX case isn't broken
introduce an option ept_violation_ve_test and when it's set, BUG the vm.

Move VMX's handling of NMI VM-Exits into vmx_vcpu_enter_exit() so that
the NMI is handled prior to leaving the safety of noinstr. Handling the
NMI after leaving noinstr exposes the kernel to potential ordering
problems as an instrumentation-induced fault, e.g. #DB, #BP, #PF, etc.
will unblock NMIs when IRETing back to the faulting instruction.

Check VMX features on tertiary execution control in VMCS config setup.
Sub-features in tertiary execution control to be enabled are adjusted
according to hardware capabilities although no sub-feature is enabled
in this patch.
EVMCSv1 doesn't support tertiary VM-execution control, so disable it
when EVMCSv1 is in use. And define the auxiliary functions for Tertiary
control field here, using the new BUILD_CONTROLS_SHADOW().

Clear the IDT vectoring field in vmcs12 on next VM-Exit due to a double
or triple fault. Per the SDM, a VM-Exit isn't considered to occur during
event delivery if the exit is due to an intercepted double fault or a
triple fault. Opportunistically move the default clearing (no event
"pending") into the helper so that it's more obvious that KVM does indeed
handle this case.
Note, the double fault case is worded rather wierdly in the SDM:
The original event results in a double-fault exception that causes the
VM exit directly.
Temporarily ignoring injected events, double faults can _only_ occur if
an exception occurs while attempting to deliver a different exception,
i.e. there's _always_ an original event. And for injected double fault,
while there's no original event, injected events are never subject to
interception.
Presumably the SDM is calling out that a the vectoring info will be valid
if a different exit occurs after a double fault, e.g. if a #PF occurs and
is intercepted while vectoring #DF, then the vectoring info will show the
double fault. In other words, the clause can simply be read as:
The VM exit is caused by a double-fault exception.

Guest IA32_XFD_ERR is generally modified in two places:
- Set by CPU when #NM is triggered;
- Cleared by guest in its #NM handler;
Intercept #NM for the first case when a nonzero value is written
to IA32_XFD. Nonzero indicates that the guest is willing to do
dynamic fpstate expansion for certain xfeatures, thus KVM needs to
manage and virtualize guest XFD_ERR properly. The vcpu exception
bitmap is updated in XFD write emulation according to guest_fpu::xfd.
Save the current XFD_ERR value to the guest_fpu container in the #NM
VM-exit handler. This must be done with interrupt disabled, otherwise
the unsaved MSR value may be clobbered by host activity.
The saving operation is conducted conditionally only when guest_fpu:xfd
includes a non-zero value. Doing so also avoids misread on a platform
which doesn't support XFD but #NM is triggered due to L1 interception.
Queueing #NM to the guest is postponed to handle_exception_nmi(). This
goes through the nested_vmx check so a virtual vmexit is queued instead
when #NM is triggered in L2 but L1 wants to intercept it.
Restore the host value (always ZERO outside of the host #NM
handler) before enabling interrupt.
Restore the guest value from the guest_fpu container right before
entering the guest (with interrupt disabled).

Mark #ACs that won't be reinjected to the guest as wanted by L0 so that
KVM handles split-lock #AC from L2 instead of forwarding the exception to
L1. Split-lock #AC isn't yet virtualized, i.e. L1 will treat it like a
regular #AC and do the wrong thing, e.g. reinject it into L2.

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array
members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in
which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to
zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding
some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also
help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues.
This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

VMWRITEs to the major VMCS controls, pin controls included, are
deceptively expensive. CPUs with VMCS caching (Westmere and later) also
optimize away consistency checks on VM-Entry, i.e. skip consistency
checks if the relevant fields have not changed since the last successful
VM-Entry (of the cached VMCS). Because uops are a precious commodity,
uCode's dirty VMCS field tracking isn't as precise as software would
prefer. Notably, writing any of the major VMCS fields effectively marks
the entire VMCS dirty, i.e. causes the next VM-Entry to perform all
consistency checks, which consumes several hundred cycles.
As it pertains to KVM, toggling PIN_BASED_VMX_PREEMPTION_TIMER more than
doubles the latency of the next VM-Entry (and again when/if the flag is
toggled back). In a non-nested scenario, running a "standard" guest
with the preemption timer enabled, toggling the timer flag is uncommon
but not rare, e.g. roughly 1 in 10 entries. Disabling the preemption
timer can change these numbers due to its use for "immediate exits",
even when explicitly disabled by userspace.
Nested virtualization in particular is painful, as the timer flag is set
for the majority of VM-Enters, but prepare_vmcs02() initializes vmcs02's
pin controls to *clear* the flag since its the timer's final state isn't
known until vmx_vcpu_run(). I.e. the majority of nested VM-Enters end
up unnecessarily writing pin controls *twice*.
Rather than toggle the timer flag in pin controls, set the timer value
itself to the largest allowed value to put it into a "soft disabled"
state, and ignore any spurious preemption timer exits.
Sadly, the timer is a 32-bit value and so theoretically it can fire
before the head death of the universe, i.e. spurious exits are possible.
But because KVM does *not* save the timer value on VM-Exit and because
the timer runs at a slower rate than the TSC, the maximuma timer value
is still sufficiently large for KVM's purposes. E.g. on a modern CPU
with a timer that runs at 1/32 the frequency of a 2.4ghz constant-rate
TSC, the timer will fire after ~55 seconds of *uninterrupted* guest
execution. In other words, spurious VM-Exits are effectively only
possible if the host is completely tickless on the logical CPU, the
guest is not using the preemption timer, and the guest is not generating
VM-Exits for any other reason.
To be safe from bad/weird hardware, disable the preemption timer if its
maximum delay is less than ten seconds. Ten seconds is mostly arbitrary
and was selected in no small part because it's a nice round number.
For simplicity and paranoia, fall back to __kvm_request_immediate_exit()
if the preemption timer is disabled by KVM or userspace. Previously
KVM continued to use the preemption timer to force immediate exits even
when the timer was disabled by userspace. Now that KVM leaves the timer
running instead of truly disabling it, allow userspace to kill it
entirely in the unlikely event the timer (or KVM) malfunctions.

Generic x86 code invokes the kvm_x86_ops external interrupt handler on
all VM-Exits regardless of the actual exit type. Use the already-cached
EXIT_REASON to determine if the VM-Exit was due to an interrupt, thus
avoiding an extra VMREAD (to query VM_EXIT_INTR_INFO) for all other
types of VM-Exit.
In addition to avoiding the extra VMREAD, checking the EXIT_REASON
instead of VM_EXIT_INTR_INFO makes it more obvious that
vmx_handle_external_intr() is called for all VM-Exits, e.g. someone
unfamiliar with the flow might wonder under what condition(s)
VM_EXIT_INTR_INFO does not contain a valid interrupt, which is
simply not possible since KVM always runs with "ack interrupt on exit".
WARN once if VM_EXIT_INTR_INFO doesn't contain a valid interrupt on
an EXTERNAL_INTERRUPT VM-Exit, as such a condition would indicate a
hardware bug.

Currently, host_rsp is cached on a per-vCPU basis, i.e. it's stored in
struct vcpu_vmx. In non-nested usage the caching is for all intents
and purposes 100% effective, e.g. only the first VMLAUNCH needs to
synchronize VMCS.HOST_RSP since the call stack to vmx_vcpu_run() is
identical each and every time. But when running a nested guest, KVM
must invalidate the cache when switching the current VMCS as it can't
guarantee the new VMCS has the same HOST_RSP as the previous VMCS. In
other words, the cache loses almost all of its efficacy when running a
nested VM.
Move host_rsp to struct vmcs_host_state, which is per-VMCS, so that it
is cached on a per-VMCS basis and restores its 100% hit rate when
nested VMs are in play.
Note that the host_rsp cache for vmcs02 essentially "breaks" when
nested early checks are enabled as nested_vmx_check_vmentry_hw() will
see a different RSP at the time of its VM-Enter. While it's possible
to avoid even that VMCS.HOST_RSP synchronization, e.g. by employing a
dedicated VM-Exit stack, there is little motivation for doing so as
the overhead of two VMWRITEs (~55 cycles) is dwarfed by the overhead
of the extra VMX transition (600+ cycles) and is a proverbial drop in
the ocean relative to the total cost of a nested transtion (10s of
thousands of cycles).
