[PATCH v3 00/21] KVM: x86: Disallow writes to feature MSRs post-KVM_RUN

From: Sean Christopherson
Date: Fri Mar 10 2023 - 19:46:28 EST


Give feature MSRs that same treatment as CPUID and disallow changing said
MSRs after KVM_RUN. Fix a tangentially related bug in the vPMU where KVM
leaves the vLBRs enabled after userspace disables the guest's entire vPMU.

The bulk of this series is a rework of the vmx_pmu_caps_test, a.k.a.
the PERF_CAPABILITIES selftests, to expand its coverage. In addition to
verifying that KVM rejects changes after KVM_RUN, verify other bits beyond
full-width writes and the LBR format.

Note! There is a sneaky, small, but massive change buried halfway through
this series that will affect all x86 selftests. Patch

Verify KVM preserves userspace writes to "durable" MSRs

adds a KVM_GET_MSRS after every KVM_SET_MSRS that writes a single MSR and
expects to succeeded. The intent is to opportunistically verify that KVM
provides "read what you wrote" for all "durable" MSRs. The PERF_CAPS test
was manually verifying this behavior, and while it seems kinda gratuitous,
the coverage is quite cheap from both a performance and maintenance cost,
i.e. I can't think of a reason _not_ to do it.

v3:
- Collect reviews. [Xiaoyao]
- Fix the PMU selftests _before_ introducing the breaking KVM change. [Like]
- Actually use kvm_vcpu_has_run()... [Yu]
