CPUID(EAX=0DH,ECX=1).EBX reports required storage size of
all enabled xstate features in XCR0 | XSS. Guest can allocate
sufficient xsave buffer based on the info.
Please wrap changelogs closer to ~75 chars. I'm pretty sure this isn't the first
time I've made this request...
Thanks, will keep the changelog to 70~75  chars.
Note, KVM does not yet support any XSS based features, i.e.
supported_xss is guaranteed to be zero at this time.

Nit, the variable should be xfeatures, not xstate. Though I vote to avoid the
variable entirely,

best = cpuid_entry2_find(entries, nent, 0xD, 1);
if (best && (cpuid_entry_has(best, X86_FEATURE_XSAVES) ||
cpuid_entry_has(best, X86_FEATURE_XSAVEC)))
best->ebx = xstate_required_size(vcpu->arch.xcr0 |
vcpu->arch.ia32_xss, true);

though it's only a slight preference, i.e. feel free to keep your approach if
you or others feel strongly about the style.
Yes, the variable is not necessary, will remove it.

Blech. I tried to clean up this ugly, but Paolo disagreed[*]. Can you fold in
the below (compile tested only) patch at the very beginning of this series? It
implements my suggested alternative. And then this would become:

static u64 vcpu_get_supported_xss(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu)
{
struct kvm_cpuid_entry2 *best;

best = kvm_find_cpuid_entry_index(vcpu, 0xd, 1);
if (!best)

Sure, will take it into my series, thanks!

Nit, I prefer this style:

if (vcpu->arch.ia32_xss == data)
break;

vcpu->arch.ia32_xss = data;
kvm_update_cpuid_runtime(vcpu);

so that the common path isn't buried in an if-statement.
Yeah, I feel I'm a bit awkward to make code look nicer :-)

Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86: Rework cpuid_get_supported_xcr0() to operate on
vCPU data

Rework and rename cpuid_get_supported_xcr0() to explicitly operate on vCPU
state, i.e. on a vCPU's CPUID state. Prior to commit 275a87244ec8 ("KVM:
x86: Don't adjust guest's CPUID.0x12.1 (allowed SGX enclave XFRM)"), KVM
incorrectly fudged guest CPUID at runtime, which in turn necessitated
massaging the incoming CPUID state for KVM_SET_CPUID{2} so as not to run
afoul of kvm_cpuid_check_equal().

Opportunistically move the helper below kvm_update_cpuid_runtime() to make
it harder to repeat the mistake of querying supported XCR0 for runtime
updates.

No functional change intended.
