[PATCH 00/12] KVM: x86: Add "governed" X86_FEATURE framework
From: Sean Christopherson
Date: Fri Feb 17 2023 - 18:10:35 EST
Add a framework to manage and cache KVM-governed features, i.e. CPUID
based features that require explicit KVM enabling and/or need to be
queried semi-frequently by KVM. The idea originally came up in the
context of the architectural LBRs series as a way to avoid querying
guest CPUID in hot paths without needing a dedicated flag, but as
evidenced by the shortlog, the most common usage is to handle the ever-
growing list of SVM features that are exposed to L1.
Note, I don't like the name "governed", but it was the least awful thing I
could come up with. Suggestions most definitely welcome.
This series is lightly tested. I am posting somewhat speculatively to get
early feedback on the idea.
Sean Christopherson (12):
KVM: x86: Add a framework for enabling KVM-governed x86 features
KVM: x86/mmu: Use KVM-governed feature framework to track "GBPAGES
enabled"
KVM: VMX: Recompute "XSAVES enabled" only after CPUID update
KVM: VMX: Rename XSAVES control to follow KVM's preferred "ENABLE_XYZ"
KVM: x86: Use KVM-governed feature framework to track "XSAVES enabled"
KVM: nSVM: Use KVM-governed feature framework to track "NRIPS enabled"
KVM: nSVM: Use KVM-governed feature framework to track "TSC scaling
enabled"
KVM: nSVM: Use KVM-governed feature framework to track "vVM{SAVE,LOAD}
enabled"
KVM: nSVM: Use KVM-governed feature framework to track "LBRv enabled"
KVM: nSVM: Use KVM-governed feature framework to track "Pause Filter
enabled"
KVM: nSVM: Use KVM-governed feature framework to track "vGIF enabled"
KVM: x86: Disallow guest CPUID lookups when IRQs are disabled
