Subject: [PATCH 3.16 7/7] KVM: x86: fix singlestepping over syscall

3.16.45-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@...hat.com>

commit c8401dda2f0a00cd25c0af6a95ed50e478d25de4 upstream.

TF is handled a bit differently for syscall and sysret, compared
to the other instructions: TF is checked after the instruction completes,
so that the OS can disable #DB at a syscall by adding TF to FMASK.
When the sysret is executed the #DB is taken "as if" the syscall insn
just completed.

KVM emulates syscall so that it can trap 32-bit syscall on Intel processors.
Fix the behavior, otherwise you could get #DB on a user stack which is not
nice.  This does not affect Linux guests, as they use an IST or task gate
for #DB.

This fixes CVE-2017-7518.

[bwh: Backported to 3.16:
 - kvm_vcpu_check_singlestep() did not take an rflags parameter but
   called get_rflags() itself; delete that code
 - kvm_vcpu_check_singlestep() sets some flags differently
 - Drop changes to kvm_skip_emulated_instruction()]
