Track the range being invalidated by mmu_notifier and skip page fault
retries if the fault address is not affected by the in-progress
invalidation. Handle concurrent invalidations by finding the minimal
range which includes all ranges being invalidated. Although the combined
range may include unrelated addresses and cannot be shrunk as individual
invalidation operations complete, it is unlikely the marginal gains of
proper range tracking are worth the additional complexity.
The primary benefit of this change is the reduction in the likelihood of
extreme latency when handing a page fault due to another thread having
been preempted while modifying host virtual addresses.

Don't retry a page fault due to an mmu_notifier invalidation when
handling a page fault for a GPA that did not resolve to a memslot, i.e.
an MMIO page fault. Invalidations from the mmu_notifier signal a change
in a host virtual address (HVA) mapping; without a memslot, there is no
HVA and thus no possibility that the invalidation is relevant to the
page fault being handled.
Note, the MMIO vs. memslot generation checks handle the case where a
pending memslot will create a memslot overlapping the faulting GPA. The
mmu_notifier checks are orthogonal to memslot updates.

Stop setting dirty bits for MMU pages when dirty logging is disabled for
a memslot, as PML is now completely disabled when there are no memslots
with dirty logging enabled.
This means that spurious PML entries will be created for memslots with
dirty logging disabled if at least one other memslot has dirty logging
enabled. However, spurious PML entries are already possible since
dirty bits are set only when a dirty logging is turned off, i.e. memslots
that are never dirty logged will have dirty bits cleared.
In the end, it's faster overall to eat a few spurious PML entries in the
window where dirty logging is being disabled across all memslots.

When zapping SPTEs in order to rebuild them as huge pages, use the new
helper that computes the max mapping level to detect whether or not a
SPTE should be zapped. Doing so avoids zapping SPTEs that can't
possibly be rebuilt as huge pages, e.g. due to hardware constraints,
memslot alignment, etc...
This also avoids zapping SPTEs that are still large, e.g. if migration
was canceled before write-protected huge pages were shattered to enable
dirty logging. Note, such pages are still write-protected at this time,
i.e. a page fault VM-Exit will still occur. This will hopefully be
addressed in a future patch.
Sadly, TDP MMU loses its const on the memslot, but that's a pervasive

When retpolines are enabled they have high overhead in the inner loop

Let's mark this function and its TDP MMU equivalent __always_inline so
compiler will be able to change the call to the actual handler function
inside each of them into a direct one.
This significantly improves performance on the unmap test on the existing
kernel memslot code (tested on a Xeon 8167M machine):
30 slots in use:

Use reserved_gpa_bits, which accounts for exceptions to the maxphyaddr
rule, e.g. SEV's C-bit, for the page {table,directory,etc...} entry (PxE)
reserved bits checks. For SEV, the C-bit is ignored by hardware when
walking pages tables, e.g. the APM states:
Note that while the guest may choose to set the C-bit explicitly on
instruction pages and page table addresses, the value of this bit is a
don't-care in such situations as hardware always performs these as
private accesses.
Such behavior is expected to hold true for other features that repurpose
GPA bits, e.g. KVM could theoretically emulate SME or MKTME, which both
allow non-zero repurposed bits in the page tables. Conceptually, KVM
should apply reserved GPA checks universally, and any features that do
not adhere to the basic rule should be explicitly handled, i.e. if a GPA
bit is repurposed but not allowed in page tables for whatever reason.
Refactor __reset_rsvds_bits_mask() to take the pre-generated reserved
bits mask, and opportunistically clean up its code, e.g. to align lines
and comments.
Practically speaking, this is change is a likely a glorified nop given
the current KVM code base. SEV's C-bit is the only repurposed GPA bit,
and KVM doesn't support shadowing encrypted page tables (which is
theoretically possible via SEV debug APIs).

Remove the update_pte() shadow paging logic, which was obsoleted by
commit 4731d4c7a0 ("KVM: MMU: out of sync shadow core"), but never
removed. As pointed out by Yu, KVM never write protects leaf page
tables for the purposes of shadow paging, and instead marks their
associated shadow page as unsync so that the guest can write PTEs at
will.
The update_pte() path, which predates the unsync logic, optimizes COW
scenarios by refreshing leaf SPTEs when they are written, as opposed to
zapping the SPTE, restarting the guest, and installing the new SPTE on
the subsequent fault. Since KVM no longer write-protects leaf page
tables, update_pte() is unreachable and can be dropped.

the starting level of the walk, from the callers perspective, is not

from the CR3 root causes get_mmio_spte() to consume uninitialized stack

get_walk(). This can result in false positives and/or negatives

The guest triggering this crashes. Note, this happens with the traditional
MMU and EPT enabled, not with the newly introduced TDP MMU. Turns out,
there was a subtle change in the above mentioned commit. Previously,
walk_shadow_page_get_mmio_spte() was setting 'root' to 'iterator.level'
which is returned by shadow_walk_init() and this equals to
'vcpu->arch.mmu->shadow_root_level'. Now, get_mmio_spte() sets it to
'int root = vcpu->arch.mmu->root_level'.
The difference between 'root_level' and 'shadow_root_level' on CPUs
supporting 5-level page tables is that in some case we don't want to
use 5-level, in particular when 'cpuid_maxphyaddr(vcpu) <= 48'
kvm_mmu_get_tdp_level() returns '4'. In case upper layer is not used,
the corresponding SPTE will fail '__is_rsvd_bits_set()' check.
Revert to using 'shadow_root_level'.

Because kvm dirty rings and kvm dirty log is used in an exclusive way,
Let's avoid creating the dirty_bitmap when kvm dirty ring is enabled.
At the meantime, since the dirty_bitmap will be conditionally created
now, we can't use it as a sign of "whether this memory slot enabled
dirty tracking". Change users like that to check against the kvm
memory slot flags.
Note that there still can be chances where the kvm memory slot got its
dirty_bitmap allocated, _if_ the memory slots are created before
enabling of the dirty rings and at the same time with the dirty
tracking capability enabled, they'll still with the dirty_bitmap.
However it should not hurt much (e.g., the bitmaps will always be
freed if they are there), and the real users normally won't trigger
this because dirty bit tracking flag should in most cases only be
applied to kvm slots only before migration starts, that should be far
latter than kvm initializes (VM starts).

This patch is heavily based on previous work from Lei Cao
<lei.cao@stratus.com> and Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>. [1]
KVM currently uses large bitmaps to track dirty memory. These bitmaps
are copied to userspace when userspace queries KVM for its dirty page
information. The use of bitmaps is mostly sufficient for live
migration, as large parts of memory are be dirtied from one log-dirty
pass to another. However, in a checkpointing system, the number of
dirty pages is small and in fact it is often bounded---the VM is
paused when it has dirtied a pre-defined number of pages. Traversing a
large, sparsely populated bitmap to find set bits is time-consuming,
as is copying the bitmap to user-space.
A similar issue will be there for live migration when the guest memory
is huge while the page dirty procedure is trivial. In that case for
each dirty sync we need to pull the whole dirty bitmap to userspace
and analyse every bit even if it's mostly zeros.
The preferred data structure for above scenarios is a dense list of
guest frame numbers (GFN). This patch series stores the dirty list in
kernel memory that can be memory mapped into userspace to allow speedy
harvesting.
This patch enables dirty ring for X86 only. However it should be
easily extended to other archs as well.

When KVM maps a largepage backed region at a lower level in order to
make it executable (i.e. NX large page shattering), it reduces the TLB
performance of that region. In order to avoid making this degradation
permanent, KVM must periodically reclaim shattered NX largepages by
zapping them and allowing them to be rebuilt in the page fault handler.
With this patch, the TDP MMU does not respect KVM's rate limiting on
reclaim. It traverses the entire TDP structure every time. This will be
addressed in a future patch.

Dirty logging ultimately breaks down MMU mappings to 4k granularity.
When dirty logging is no longer needed, these granaular mappings
represent a useless performance penalty. When dirty logging is disabled,
search the paging structure for mappings that could be re-constituted

Add functions to handle page faults in the TDP MMU. These page faults
are currently handled in much the same way as the x86 shadow paging
based MMU, however the ordering of some operations is slightly
different. Future patches will add eager NX splitting, a fast page fault
handler, and parallel page faults.
Tested by running kvm-unit-tests and KVM selftests on an Intel Haswell
machine. This series introduced no new failures.

In order to avoid creating executable hugepages in the TDP MMU PF
handler, remove the dependency between disallowed_hugepage_adjust and
the shadow_walk_iterator. This will open the function up to being used
by the TDP MMU PF handler in a future patch.

Add functions to zap SPTEs to the TDP MMU. These are needed to tear down
TDP MMU roots properly and implement other MMU functions which require
tearing down mappings. Future patches will add functions to populate the
page tables, but as for this patch there will not be any work for these
functions to do.

The existing bookkeeping done by KVM when a PTE is changed is spread
around several functions. This makes it difficult to remember all the
stats, bitmaps, and other subsystems that need to be updated whenever a
PTE is modified. When a non-leaf PTE is marked non-present or becomes a
leaf PTE, page table memory must also be freed. To simplify the MMU and
facilitate the use of atomic operations on SPTEs in future patches, create
functions to handle some of the bookkeeping required as a result of
a change.

The TDP MMU must be able to allocate paging structure root pages and track
the usage of those pages. Implement a similar, but separate system for root
page allocation to that of the x86 shadow paging implementation. When
future patches add synchronization model changes to allow for parallel
page faults, these pages will need to be handled differently from the
x86 shadow paging based MMU's root pages.

The TDP MMU offers an alternative mode of operation to the x86 shadow
paging based MMU, optimized for running an L1 guest with TDP. The TDP MMU
will require new fields that need to be initialized and torn down. Add
hooks into the existing KVM MMU initialization process to do that
initialization / cleanup. Currently the initialization and cleanup
fucntions do not do very much, however more operations will be added in
future patches.

The SPTE format will be common to both the shadow and the TDP MMU.
Extract code that implements the format to a separate module, as a
first step towards adding the TDP MMU and putting mmu.c on a diet.

The TDP MMU's own function for the changed-PTE notifier will need to be
update a PTE in the exact same way as the shadow MMU. Rather than
re-implementing this logic, factor the SPTE creation out of kvm_set_pte_rmapp.

Separate the functions for generating leaf page table entries from the
function that inserts them into the paging structure. This refactoring
will facilitate changes to the MMU sychronization model to use atomic
compare / exchanges (which are not guaranteed to succeed) instead of a
monolithic MMU lock.
No functional change expected.
