The `if (req_max_level)` test was meant ignore req_max_level if
PG_LEVEL_NONE was returned. Hence, this function should return
max_level instead of the ignored req_max_level.
This is only a latent issue for now, since guest_memfd does not
support large pages.

KVM_PRE_FAULT_MEMORY for an SNP guest can race with
sev_gmem_post_populate() in bad ways. The following sequence for
instance can potentially trigger an RMP fault:
thread A, sev_gmem_post_populate: called
thread B, sev_gmem_prepare: places below 'pfn' in a private state in RMP
thread A, sev_gmem_post_populate: *vaddr = kmap_local_pfn(pfn + i);
thread A, sev_gmem_post_populate: copy_from_user(vaddr, src + i * PAGE_SIZE, PAGE_SIZE);
RMP #PF
Fix this by only allowing KVM_PRE_FAULT_MEMORY to run after a guest's
initial private memory contents have been finalized via
KVM_SEV_SNP_LAUNCH_FINISH.
Beyond fixing this issue, it just sort of makes sense to enforce this,
since the KVM_PRE_FAULT_MEMORY documentation states:
"KVM maps memory as if the vCPU generated a stage-2 read page fault"
which sort of implies we should be acting on the same guest state that a
vCPU would see post-launch after the initial guest memory is all set up.

Bug the VM instead of simply warning if KVM tries to split a SPTE that is
non-present or not-huge. KVM is guaranteed to end up in a broken state as
the callers fully expect a valid SPTE, e.g. the shadow MMU will add an
rmap entry, and all MMUs will account the expected small page. Returning
'0' is also technically wrong now that SHADOW_NONPRESENT_VALUE exists,
i.e. would cause KVM to create a potential #VE SPTE.
While it would be possible to have the callers gracefully handle failure,
doing so would provide no practical value as the scenario really should be
impossible, while the error handling would add a non-trivial amount of
noise.

KVM x86 MTRR virtualization removal
Remove support for virtualizing MTRRs on Intel CPUs, along with a nasty CR0.CD
hack, and instead always honor guest PAT on CPUs that support self-snoop.
KVM x86 MMU changes for 6.11
- Don't allocate kvm_mmu_page.shadowed_translation for shadow pages that can't
hold leafs SPTEs.
- Unconditionally drop mmu_lock when allocating TDP MMU page tables for eager
page splitting to avoid stalling vCPUs when splitting huge pages.
- Misc cleanups
KVM x86 misc changes for 6.11
- Add a global struct to consolidate tracking of host values, e.g. EFER, and
move "shadow_phys_bits" into the structure as "maxphyaddr".
- Add KVM_CAP_X86_APIC_BUS_CYCLES_NS to allow configuring the effective APIC
bus frequency, because TDX.
- Print the name of the APICv/AVIC inhibits in the relevant tracepoint.
- Clean up KVM's handling of vendor specific emulation to consistently act on
"compatible with Intel/AMD", versus checking for a specific vendor.
- Misc cleanups
Pre-population has been requested several times to mitigate KVM page faults
during guest boot or after live migration. It is also required by TDX
before filling in the initial guest memory with measured contents.
Introduce it as a generic API.
Wire KVM_PRE_FAULT_MEMORY ioctl to kvm_mmu_do_page_fault() to populate guest
memory. It can be called right after KVM_CREATE_VCPU creates a vCPU,
since at that point kvm_mmu_create() and kvm_init_mmu() are called and
the vCPU is ready to invoke the KVM page fault handler.
The helper function kvm_tdp_map_page() takes care of the logic to
process RET_PF_* return values and convert them to success or errno.

Pass fault->gfn into kvm_tdp_mmu_fast_pf_get_last_sptep(), instead of
passing fault->addr and then converting it to a GFN.
Future changes will make fault->addr and fault->gfn differ when running
TDX guests. The GFN will be conceptually the same as it is for normal VMs,
but fault->addr may contain a TDX specific bit that differentiates between
"shared" and "private" memory. This bit will be used to direct faults to
be handled on different roots, either the normal "direct" root or a new
type of root that handles private memory. The TDP iterators will process
the traditional GFN concept and apply the required TDX specifics depending
on the root type. For this reason, it needs to operate on regular GFN and
not the addr, which may contain these special TDX specific bits.
Today kvm_tdp_mmu_fast_pf_get_last_sptep() takes fault->addr and then
immediately converts it to a GFN with a bit shift. However, this would
unfortunately retain the TDX specific bits in what is supposed to be a
traditional GFN. Excluding TDX's needs, it is also is unnecessary to pass
fault->addr and convert it to a GFN when the GFN is already on hand.
So instead just pass the GFN into kvm_tdp_mmu_fast_pf_get_last_sptep() and
use it directly.

Always drop mmu_lock to allocate shadow pages in the TDP MMU when doing
eager page splitting. Dropping mmu_lock during eager page splitting is
cheap since KVM does not have to flush remote TLBs, and avoids stalling
vCPU threads that are taking page faults while KVM is eager splitting
under mmu_lock held for write.
This change reduces 20%+ dips in MySQL throughput during live migration
in a 160 vCPU VM while userspace is issuing CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG ioctls
(tested with 1GiB and 8GiB CLEARs). Userspace could issue finer-grained
CLEARs, which would also reduce contention on mmu_lock, but doing so
will increase the rate of remote TLB flushing, since KVM must flush TLBs
before returning from CLEAR_DITY_LOG.
When there isn't contention on mmu_lock[1], this change does not regress
the time it takes to perform eager page splitting (the cost of releasing
and re-acquiring an uncontended lock is minimal on x86).
[1] Tested with dirty_log_perf_test, which does not run vCPUs during
eager page splitting, and with a 16 vCPU VM Live Migration with
manual-protect disabled (where mmu_lock is held for read).

Unconditionally honor guest PAT on CPUs that support self-snoop, as
Intel has confirmed that CPUs that support self-snoop always snoop caches
and store buffers. I.e. CPUs with self-snoop maintain cache coherency
even in the presence of aliased memtypes, thus there is no need to trust
the guest behaves and only honor PAT as a last resort, as KVM does today.
Honoring guest PAT is desirable for use cases where the guest has access
to non-coherent DMA _without_ bouncing through VFIO, e.g. when a virtual
(mediated, for all intents and purposes) GPU is exposed to the guest, along
with buffers that are consumed directly by the physical GPU, i.e. which
can't be proxied by the host to ensure writes from the guest are performed
with the correct memory type for the GPU.

Remove KVM's support for virtualizing guest MTRR memtypes, as full MTRR
adds no value, negatively impacts guest performance, and is a maintenance
burden due to it's complexity and oddities.
KVM's approach to virtualizating MTRRs make no sense, at all. KVM *only*
honors guest MTRR memtypes if EPT is enabled *and* the guest has a device
that may perform non-coherent DMA access. From a hardware virtualization
perspective of guest MTRRs, there is _nothing_ special about EPT. Legacy
shadowing paging doesn't magically account for guest MTRRs, nor does NPT.
Unwinding and deciphering KVM's murky history, the MTRR virtualization
code appears to be the result of misdiagnosed issues when EPT + VT-d with
passthrough devices was enabled years and years ago. And importantly, the
underlying bugs that were fudged around by honoring guest MTRR memtypes
have since been fixed (though rather poorly in some cases).
The zapping GFNs logic in the MTRR virtualization code came from:

1) the cache type is not cached into shadow page's attribute so that
the original root shadow page will be reused
2) the cache type is set on the last spte, that means we should sync
the last sptes when MTRR is changed
This patch fixs this issue by drop all the spte in the gfn range which
is being updated by MTRR

KVM: VMX: Set IGMT bit in EPT entry
There is a potential issue that, when guest using pagetable without vmexit when
EPT enabled, guest would use PAT/PCD/PWT bits to index PAT msr for it's memory,
which would be inconsistent with host side and would cause host MCE due to
inconsistent cache attribute.
The patch set IGMT bit in EPT entry to ignore guest PAT and use WB as default
memory type to protect host (notice that all memory mapped by KVM should be WB).
Note the CommitDates! The AuthorDates strongly suggests Sheng Yang added
the whole "ignoreIGMT things as a bug fix for issues that were detected
during EPT + VT-d + passthrough enabling, but it was applied earlier
because it was a generic fix.
Jumping back to 0bed3b568b ("KVM: Improve MTRR structure"), the other
relevant code, or rather lack thereof, is the handling of *host* MMIO.
That fix came in a bit later, but given the author and timing, it's safe
to say it was all part of the same EPT+VT-d enabling mess.

So, for the most part, what likely happened is that 15 years ago, a few
engineers (a) fixed a #MC problem by ignoring guest PAT and (b) initially
"fixed" passthrough device MMIO by emulating *guest* MTRRs. Except for
the below case, everything since then has been a result of those two
intertwined changes.
The one exception, which is actually yet more confirmation of all of the
above, is the revert of Paolo's attempt at "full" virtualization of guest
MTRRs:

KVM: x86: apply guest MTRR virtualization on host reserved pages
Currently guest MTRR is avoided if kvm_is_reserved_pfn returns true.
However, the guest could prefer a different page type than UC for
such pages. A good example is that pass-throughed VGA frame buffer is
not always UC as host expected.
This patch enables full use of virtual guest MTRRs.
I.e. Paolo tried to add back KVM's behavior before "Map device MMIO as UC
in EPT" and got the same result: machine checks, likely due to the guest
MTRRs not being trustworthy/sane at all times.
Note, Paolo also tried to enable MTRR virtualization on SVM+NPT, but that
too got reverted. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that anyone ever found
a smoking gun, i.e. exactly why emulating guest MTRRs via NPT PAT caused
extremely slow boot times doesn't appear to have a definitive root cause.

KVM: SVM: use NPT page attributes
Right now, NPT page attributes are not used, and the final page
attribute depends solely on gPAT (which however is not synced
correctly), the guest MTRRs and the guest page attributes.
However, we can do better by mimicking what is done for VMX.
In the absence of PCI passthrough, the guest PAT can be ignored
and the page attributes can be just WB. If passthrough is being
used, instead, keep respecting the guest PAT, and emulate the guest
MTRRs through the PAT field of the nested page tables.
The only snag is that WP memory cannot be emulated correctly,
because Linux's default PAT setting only includes the other types.
In short, honoring guest MTRRs for VMX was initially a workaround of
sorts for KVM ignoring guest PAT *and* for KVM not forcing UC for host
MMIO. And while there *are* known cases where honoring guest MTRRs is
desirable, e.g. passthrough VGA frame buffers, the desired behavior in
that case is to get WC instead of UC, i.e. at this point it's for
performance, not correctness.
Furthermore, the complete absence of MTRR virtualization on NPT and
shadow paging proves that, while KVM theoretically can do better, it's
by no means necessary for correctnesss.
Lastly, since kernels mostly rely on firmware to do MTRR setup, and the
host typically provides guest firmware, honoring guest MTRRs is effectively
honoring *host* userspace memtypes, which is also backwards. I.e. it
would be far better for host userspace to communicate its desired memtype
directly to KVM (or perhaps indirectly via VMAs in the host kernel), not
through guest MTRRs.

Drop the second snapshot of mmu_invalidate_seq in kvm_faultin_pfn().
Before checking the mismatch of private vs. shared, mmu_invalidate_seq is
saved to fault->mmu_seq, which can be used to detect an invalidation
related to the gfn occurred, i.e. KVM will not install a mapping in page
table if fault->mmu_seq != mmu_invalidate_seq.
Currently there is a second snapshot of mmu_invalidate_seq, which may not
be same as the first snapshot in kvm_faultin_pfn(), i.e. the gfn attribute
may be changed between the two snapshots, but the gfn may be mapped in
page table without hindrance. Therefore, drop the second snapshot as it

* implement the KVM API to handle the creation of a cryptographic
launch context, encrypt/measure the initial image into guest memory,
and finalize it before launching it.
* implement handling for various guest-generated events such as page
state changes, onlining of additional vCPUs, etc.
* implement the gmem/mmu hooks needed to prepare gmem-allocated pages
before mapping them into guest private memory ranges as well as
cleaning them up prior to returning them to the host for use as
normal memory. Because those cleanup hooks supplant certain
activities like issuing WBINVDs during KVM MMU invalidations, avoid
duplicating that work to avoid unecessary overhead.
This merge leaves out support support for attestation guest requests
and for loading the signing keys to be used for attestation requests.
Move shadow_phys_bits into "struct kvm_host_values", i.e. into KVM's
global "kvm_host" variable, so that it is automatically exported for use
in vendor modules. Rename the variable/field to maxphyaddr to more
clearly capture what value it holds, now that it's used outside of the
MMU (and because the "shadow" part is more than a bit misleading as the
variable is not at all unique to shadow paging).
Recomputing the raw/true host.MAXPHYADDR on every use can be subtly
expensive, e.g. it will incur a VM-Exit on the CPUID if KVM is running as
a nested hypervisor. Vendor code already has access to the information,
e.g. by directly doing CPUID or by invoking kvm_get_shadow_phys_bits(), so
there's no tangible benefit to making it MMU-only.

Assert that KVM doesn't set a SPTE to a value that could trigger an EPT
Violation #VE on a non-MMIO SPTE, e.g. to help detect bugs even without
KVM_INTEL_PROVE_VE enabled, and to help debug actual #VE failures.
Note, this will run afoul of TDX support, which needs to reflect emulated
MMIO accesses into the guest as #VEs (which was the whole point of adding
EPT Violation #VE support in KVM). The obvious fix for that is to exempt
MMIO SPTEs, but that's annoyingly difficult now that is_mmio_spte() relies
on a per-VM value. However, resolving that conundrum is a future problem,
whereas getting KVM_INTEL_PROVE_VE healthy is a current problem.

When SEV-SNP is enabled in the guest, the hardware places restrictions
on all memory accesses based on the contents of the RMP table. When
hardware encounters RMP check failure caused by the guest memory access
it raises the #NPF. The error code contains additional information on
the access type. See the APM volume 2 for additional information.
When using gmem, RMP faults resulting from mismatches between the state
in the RMP table vs. what the guest expects via its page table result
in KVM_EXIT_MEMORY_FAULTs being forwarded to userspace to handle. This
means the only expected case that needs to be handled in the kernel is
when the page size of the entry in the RMP table is larger than the
mapping in the nested page table, in which case a PSMASH instruction
needs to be issued to split the large RMP entry into individual 4K
entries so that subsequent accesses can succeed.

For hardware-protected VMs like SEV-SNP guests, certain conditions like
attempting to perform a write to a page which is not in the state that
the guest expects it to be in can result in a nested/extended #PF which
can only be satisfied by the host performing an implicit page state
change to transition the page into the expected shared/private state.
This is generally handled by generating a KVM_EXIT_MEMORY_FAULT event
that gets forwarded to userspace to handle via
KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES.
However, the fast_page_fault() code might misconstrue this situation as
being the result of a write-protected access, and treat it as a spurious
case when it sees that writes are already allowed for the sPTE. This
results in the KVM MMU trying to resume the guest rather than taking any
action to satisfy the real source of the #PF such as generating a
KVM_EXIT_MEMORY_FAULT, resulting in the guest spinning on nested #PFs.
Check for this condition and bail out of the fast path if it is
detected.

KVM x86 misc changes for 6.10:
- Advertise the max mappable GPA in the "guest MAXPHYADDR" CPUID field, which
is unused by hardware, so that KVM can communicate its inability to map GPAs
that set bits 51:48 due to lack of 5-level paging. Guest firmware is
expected to use the information to safely remap BARs in the uppermost GPA
space, i.e to avoid placing a BAR at a legal, but unmappable, GPA.
- Use vfree() instead of kvfree() for allocations that always use vcalloc()
or __vcalloc().
- Don't completely ignore same-value writes to immutable feature MSRs, as
doing so results in KVM failing to reject accesses to MSR that aren't
supposed to exist given the vCPU model and/or KVM configuration.
- Don't mark APICv as being inhibited due to ABSENT if APICv is disabled
KVM-wide to avoid confusing debuggers (KVM will never bother clearing the
ABSENT inhibit, even if userspace enables in-kernel local APIC).
KVM x86 MMU changes for 6.10:
- Process TDP MMU SPTEs that are are zapped while holding mmu_lock for read
after replacing REMOVED_SPTE with '0' and flushing remote TLBs, which allows
vCPU tasks to repopulate the zapped region while the zapper finishes tearing
down the old, defunct page tables.
- Fix a longstanding, likely benign-in-practice race where KVM could fail to
detect a write from kvm_mmu_track_write() to a shadowed GPTE if the GPTE is
first page table being shadowed.
KVM VMX changes for 6.10:
- Clear vmcs.EXIT_QUALIFICATION when synthesizing an EPT Misconfig VM-Exit to
L1, as per the SDM.
- Move kvm_vcpu_arch's exit_qualification into x86_exception, as the field is
used only when synthesizing nested EPT violation, i.e. it's not the vCPU's
"real" exit_qualification, which is tracked elsewhere.
- Add a sanity check to assert that EPT Violations are the only sources of
nested PML Full VM-Exits.
A combination of prep work for TDX and SNP, and a clean up of the
page fault path to (hopefully) make it easier to follow the rules for
private memory, noslot faults, writes to read-only slots, etc.
In the case of SEV-SNP, whether or not a 2MB page can be mapped via a
2MB mapping in the guest's nested page table depends on whether or not
any subpages within the range have already been initialized as private
in the RMP table. The existing mixed-attribute tracking in KVM is
insufficient here, for instance:
- gmem allocates 2MB page
- guest issues PVALIDATE on 2MB page
- guest later converts a subpage to shared
- SNP host code issues PSMASH to split 2MB RMP mapping to 4K
- KVM MMU splits NPT mapping to 4K
- guest later converts that shared page back to private
At this point there are no mixed attributes, and KVM would normally
allow for 2MB NPT mappings again, but this is actually not allowed
because the RMP table mappings are 4K and cannot be promoted on the
hypervisor side, so the NPT mappings must still be limited to 4K to
match this.
Add a hook to determine the max NPT mapping size in situations like
this.

WARN if __kvm_faultin_pfn() generates a "no slot" pfn, and gracefully
handle the unexpected behavior instead of continuing on with dangerous
state, e.g. tdp_mmu_map_handle_target_level() _only_ checks fault->slot,
and so could install a bogus PFN into the guest.
The existing code is functionally ok, because kvm_faultin_pfn() pre-checks
all of the cases that result in KVM_PFN_NOSLOT, but it is unnecessarily
unsafe as it relies on __gfn_to_pfn_memslot() getting the _exact_ same
memslot, i.e. not a re-retrieved pointer with KVM_MEMSLOT_INVALID set.
And checking only fault->slot would fall apart if KVM ever added a flag or
condition that forced emulation, similar to how KVM handles writes to
read-only memslots.

Explicitly set "pfn" and "hva" to error values in kvm_mmu_do_page_fault()
to harden KVM against using "uninitialized" values. In quotes because the
fields are actually zero-initialized, and zero is a legal value for both
page frame numbers and virtual addresses. E.g. failure to set "pfn" prior
to creating an SPTE could result in KVM pointing at physical address '0',
which is far less desirable than KVM generating a SPTE with reserved PA
bits set and thus effectively killing the VM.

Handle the "no memslot" case at the beginning of kvm_faultin_pfn(), just
after the private versus shared check, so that there's no need to
repeatedly query whether or not a slot exists. This also makes it more
obvious that, except for private vs. shared attributes, the process of
faulting in a pfn simply doesn't apply to gfns without a slot.
Opportunistically stuff @fault's metadata in kvm_handle_noslot_fault() so
that it doesn't need to be duplicated in all paths that invoke
kvm_handle_noslot_fault(), and to minimize the probability of not stuffing
the right fields.
Leave the existing handle behind, but convert it to a WARN, to guard
against __kvm_faultin_pfn() unexpectedly nullifying fault->slot.

Move the checks related to the validity of an access to a memslot from the
inner __kvm_faultin_pfn() to its sole caller, kvm_faultin_pfn(). This
allows emulating accesses to the APIC access page, which don't need to
resolve a pfn, even if there is a relevant in-progress mmu_notifier
invalidation. Ditto for accesses to KVM internal memslots from L2, which
KVM also treats as emulated MMIO.
More importantly, this will allow for future cleanup by having the
"no memslot" case bail from kvm_faultin_pfn() very early on.
Go to rather extreme and gross lengths to make the change a glorified
nop, e.g. call into __kvm_faultin_pfn() even when there is no slot, as the
related code is very subtle. E.g. fault->slot can be nullified if it
points at the APIC access page, some flows in KVM x86 expect fault->pfn
to be KVM_PFN_NOSLOT, while others check only fault->slot, etc.
No functional change intended.
