commit a47970ed74 upstream.
Current SVM implementation does not have support for handling PKU. Guests
running on a host with future AMD cpus that support the feature will read
garbage from the PKRU register and will hit segmentation faults on boot as
memory is getting marked as protected that should not be. Ensure that cpuid
from SVM does not advertise the feature.

UMONITOR, UMWAIT and TPAUSE are a set of user wait instructions.
This patch adds support for user wait instructions in KVM. Availability
of the user wait instructions is indicated by the presence of the CPUID
feature flag WAITPKG CPUID.0x07.0x0:ECX[5]. User wait instructions may
be executed at any privilege level, and use 32bit IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL MSR
to set the maximum time.
The behavior of user wait instructions in VMX non-root operation is
determined first by the setting of the "enable user wait and pause"
secondary processor-based VM-execution control bit 26.
If the VM-execution control is 0, UMONITOR/UMWAIT/TPAUSE cause
an invalid-opcode exception (#UD).
If the VM-execution control is 1, treatment is based on the
setting of the “RDTSC exiting†VM-execution control. Because KVM never
enables RDTSC exiting, if the instruction causes a delay, the amount of
time delayed is called here the physical delay. The physical delay is
first computed by determining the virtual delay. If
IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL[31:2] is zero, the virtual delay is the value in
EDX:EAX minus the value that RDTSC would return; if
IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL[31:2] is not zero, the virtual delay is the minimum
of that difference and AND(IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL,FFFFFFFCH).
Because umwait and tpause can put a (psysical) CPU into a power saving
state, by default we dont't expose it to kvm and enable it only when
guest CPUID has it.
Detailed information about user wait instructions can be found in the
latest Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer's Manual.

The capabilities header depends on asm/vmx.h but doesn't explicitly
include said file. This currently doesn't cause problems as all users
of capbilities.h first include asm/vmx.h, but the issue often results in
build errors if someone starts moving things around the VMX files.

Intel Processor Trace virtualization can be work in one
of 2 possible modes:
a. System-Wide mode (default):
When the host configures Intel PT to collect trace packets
of the entire system, it can leave the relevant VMX controls
clear to allow VMX-specific packets to provide information
across VMX transitions.
KVM guest will not aware this feature in this mode and both
host and KVM guest trace will output to host buffer.
b. Host-Guest mode:
Host can configure trace-packet generation while in
VMX non-root operation for guests and root operation
for native executing normally.
Intel PT will be exposed to KVM guest in this mode, and
the trace output to respective buffer of host and guest.
In this mode, tht status of PT will be saved and disabled
before VM-entry and restored after VM-exit if trace
a virtual machine.

Expose the variables associated with various module params that are
needed by the nested VMX code. There is no ulterior logic for what
variables are/aren't exposed, this is purely "what's needed by the
nested code".
Note that @nested is intentionally not exposed.

Defining a separate capabilities.h as opposed to putting this code in
e.g. vmx.h avoids circular dependencies between (the yet-to-be-added)
vmx.h and nested.h. The aforementioned circular dependencies are why
struct nested_vmx_msrs also resides in capabilities instead of e.g.
nested.h.
