[PATCH v4.1] KVM, SEV: Add KVM_EXIT_SHUTDOWN metadata for SEV-ES

From: Peter Gonda
Date: Thu Apr 07 2022 - 17:02:43 EST


If an SEV-ES guest requests termination, exit to userspace with
KVM_EXIT_SYSTEM_EVENT and a dedicated SEV_TERM type instead of -EINVAL
so that userspace can take appropriate action.

See AMD's GHCB spec section '4.1.13 Termination Request' for more details.

V4
* Updated to Sean and Paolo's suggestion of reworking the
kvm_run.system_event struct to ndata and data fields to fix the
padding.
* 4.1 Updated commit description

V3
* Add Documentation/ update.
* Updated other KVM_EXIT_SHUTDOWN exits to clear ndata and set reason
to KVM_SHUTDOWN_REQ.

V2
* Add KVM_CAP_EXIT_SHUTDOWN_REASON check for KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION.

Tested by making an SEV-ES guest call sev_es_terminate() with hardcoded
reason code set and reason code and then observing the codes from the
userspace VMM in the kvm_run.shutdown.data fields.
