This series aims to clarify the behavior of
KVM_GET_EMULATED_CPUID and KVM_GET_SUPPORTED
ioctls, and fix a corner case where the nent field of the
struct kvm_cpuid2 is matching the amount of entries that kvm returns.
Patch 1 proposes the nent field fix to cpuid.c,
patch 2 updates the ioctl documentation accordingly and
patches 3 and 4 provide a selftest to check KVM_GET_EMULATED_CPUID
accordingly.

v2:
- better fix in cpuid.c, perform the nent check after the switch statement
- fix bug in get_emulated_cpuid.c selftest, each entry needs to have at least
the padding zeroed otherwise it fails.

2.30.2
From: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny(a)intel.com>
Introduce a new page protection mechanism for supervisor pages, Protection Key
Supervisor (PKS).
Generally PKS enables protections on 'domains' of supervisor pages to limit
supervisor mode access to pages beyond the normal paging protections. PKS
works in a similar fashion to user space pkeys, PKU. As with PKU, supervisor
pkeys are checked in addition to normal paging protections and Access or Writes
can be disabled via a MSR update without TLB flushes when permissions change.
Also like PKU, a page mapping is assigned to a domain by setting pkey bits in
the page table entry for that mapping.
Access is controlled through a PKRS register which is updated via WRMSR/RDMSR.
XSAVE is not supported for the PKRS MSR. Therefore the implementation
saves/restores the MSR across context switches and during exceptions. Nested
exceptions are supported by each exception getting a new PKS state.
For consistent behavior with current paging protections, pkey 0 is reserved and
configured to allow full access via the pkey mechanism, thus preserving the
default paging protections on mappings with the default pkey value of 0.
Other keys, (1-15) are allocated by an allocator which prepares us for key
contention from day one. Kernel users should be prepared for the allocator to
fail either because of key exhaustion or due to PKS not being supported on the
CPU instance.
The following are key attributes of PKS.
1) Fast switching of permissions
1a) Prevents access without page table manipulations
1b) No TLB flushes required
2) Works on a per thread basis
PKS is available with 4 and 5 level paging. Like PKRU it consumes 4 bits from
the PTE to store the pkey within the entry.
All code to support PKS is configured via ARCH_ENABLE_SUPERVISOR_PKEYS which
is designed to only be turned on when a user is configured on in the kernel.
Those users must depend on ARCH_HAS_SUPERVISOR_PKEYS to properly work with
other architectures which do not yet support PKS.
Originally this series was submitted as part of a large patch set which
converted the kmap call sites.[1]
Many follow on discussions revealed a few problems. The first of which was
that some callers leak a kmap mapping across threads rather than containing it
to a critical section. Attempts were made to see if these 'global kmaps' could
be supported.[2] However, supporting global kmaps had many problems. Work is
being done in parallel on converting as many kmap calls to the new
kmap_local_page().[3]
Changes from V4 [5]
From kernel test robot <lkp(a)intel.com>
Fix i386 build: pks_init_task not found
Move MSR_IA32_PKRS and INIT_PKRS_VALUE into patch 5 where they are
first 'used'. (Technically nothing is 'used' until the final
test patch. But review wise this is much cleaner.)
From Sean Christoperson
Add documentation details on what happens if the pkey is violated
Change cpu_feature_enabled to be in WARN_ON check
Clean up commit message of patch 6
Fix some checkpatch errors
