[PATCH v9 11/17] kvm/vmx: Emulate MSR TEST_CTL
From: Fenghua Yu
Date: Tue Jun 18 2019 - 18:57:03 EST
From: Xiaoyao Li <xiaoyao.li@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
A control bit (bit 29) in TEST_CTL MSR 0x33 will be introduced in
future x86 processors. When bit 29 is set, the processor causes #AC
exception for split locked accesses at all CPL.
Please check the latest Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software
Developer's Manual for more detailed information on the MSR and
the split lock bit.
This patch emulates MSR_TEST_CTL with vmx->msr_test_ctl and does the
following:
1. As MSR TEST_CTL of guest is emulated, enable the related bit
in CORE_CAPABILITY to correctly report this feature to guest.
2. If host has split lock detection enabled, forcing it enabled in
guest to avoid guest's slowdown attack by using split lock.
If host has it disabled, it can give control to guest that guest can
enable it on its own purpose.
Note: Guest can read and write bit 29 of MSR_TEST_CTL if hardware has
feature split lock detection. But when guest running, the real value in
hardware MSR will be different from the value read in guest when guest
has it disabled and host has it enabled. It can be regarded as host's
value overrides guest's value.
To avoid costly RDMSR of TEST_CTL when switching between host and guest
during vmentry, read per CPU variable msr_test_ctl_cached which caches
the MSR value.
Besides, only inject #AC exception back when guest can handle it.
Otherwise, it must be a split lock caused #AC. In this case, print a hint.
