Subject: [PATCH v9 00/36] x86: enable FRED for x86-64

This patch set enables the Intel flexible return and event delivery
(FRED) architecture for x86-64.

The FRED architecture defines simple new transitions that change
privilege level (ring transitions). The FRED architecture was
designed with the following goals:

1) Improve overall performance and response time by replacing event
   delivery through the interrupt descriptor table (IDT event
   delivery) and event return by the IRET instruction with lower
   latency transitions.

2) Improve software robustness by ensuring that event delivery
   establishes the full supervisor context and that event return
   establishes the full user context.

The new transitions defined by the FRED architecture are FRED event
delivery and, for returning from events, two FRED return instructions.
FRED event delivery can effect a transition from ring 3 to ring 0, but
it is used also to deliver events incident to ring 0. One FRED
instruction (ERETU) effects a return from ring 0 to ring 3, while the
other (ERETS) returns while remaining in ring 0. Collectively, FRED
event delivery and the FRED return instructions are FRED transitions.

Search for the latest FRED spec in most search engines with this search pattern:

  site:intel.com FRED (flexible return and event delivery) specification

As of now there is no publicly avaiable CPU supporting FRED, thus the Intel
SimicsĀ® Simulator is used as software development and testing vehicles. And
it can be downloaded from:
  https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/articles/tool/simics-simulator.html

To enable FRED, the Simics package 8112 QSP-CPU needs to be installed with CPU
model configured as:
	$cpu_comp_class = "x86-experimental-fred"


Changes since v8:
* Move the FRED initialization patch after all required changes are in
  place (Thomas Gleixner).
* Don't do syscall early out in fred_entry_from_user() before there are
  proper performance numbers and justifications (Thomas Gleixner).
* Add the control exception handler to the FRED exception handler table
  (Thomas Gleixner).
* Introduce a macro sysvec_install() to derive the asm handler name from
  a C handler, which simplifies the code and avoids an ugly typecast
  (Thomas Gleixner).
* Remove junk code that assumes no local APIC on x86_64 (Thomas Gleixner).
* Put IDTENTRY changes in a separate patch (Thomas Gleixner).
* Use high-order 48 bits above the lowest 16 bit SS only when FRED is
  enabled (Thomas Gleixner).
* Explain why writing directly to the IA32_KERNEL_GS_BASE MSR is
  doing the right thing (Thomas Gleixner).
* Reword some patch descriptions (Thomas Gleixner).
* Add a new macro VMX_DO_FRED_EVENT_IRQOFF for FRED instead of
  refactoring VMX_DO_EVENT_IRQOFF (Sean Christopherson).
* Do NOT use a trampoline, just LEA+PUSH the return RIP, PUSH the error
  code, and jump to the FRED kernel entry point for NMI or call
  external_interrupt() for IRQs (Sean Christopherson).
* Call external_interrupt() only when FRED is enabled, and convert the
  non-FRED handling to external_interrupt() after FRED lands (Sean
  Christopherson).
* Use __packed instead of __attribute__((__packed__)) (Borislav Petkov).
* Put all comments above the members, like the rest of the file does
  (Borislav Petkov).
* Reflect the FRED spec 5.0 change that ERETS and ERETU add 8 to %rsp
  before popping the return context from the stack.
* Reflect stack frame definition changes from FRED spec 3.0 to 5.0.
* Add ENDBR to the FRED_ENTER asm macro after kernel IBT is added to
  FRED base line in FRED spec 5.0.
* Add a document which briefly introduces FRED features.
* Remove 2 patches, "allow FRED systems to use interrupt vectors
  0x10-0x1f" and "allow dynamic stack frame size", from this patch set,
  as they are "optimizations" only.
* Send 2 patches, "header file for event types" and "do not modify the
  DPL bits for a null selector", as pre-FRED patches.

Changes since v7:
* Always call external_interrupt() for VMX IRQ handling on x86_64, thus avoid
  re-entering the noinstr code.
* Create a FRED stack frame when FRED is compiled-in but not enabled, which
  uses some extra stack space but simplifies the code.
* Add a log message when FRED is enabled.

Changes since v6:
* Add a comment to explain why it is safe to write to a previous FRED stack
  frame. (Lai Jiangshan).
* Export fred_entrypoint_kernel(), required when kvm-intel built as a module.
* Reserve a REDZONE for CALL emulation and Align RSP to a 64-byte boundary
  before pushing a new FRED stack frame.
* Replace pt_regs csx flags prefix FRED_CSL_ with FRED_CSX_.

Changes since v5:
* Initialize system_interrupt_handlers with dispatch_table_spurious_interrupt()
  instead of NULL to get rid of a branch (Peter Zijlstra).
* Disallow #DB inside #MCE for robustness sake (Peter Zijlstra).
* Add a comment for FRED stack level settings (Lai Jiangshan).
* Move the NMI bit from an invalid stack frame, which caused ERETU to fault,
  to the fault handler's stack frame, thus to unblock NMI ASAP if NMI is blocked
  (Lai Jiangshan).
* Refactor VMX_DO_EVENT_IRQOFF to handle IRQ/NMI in IRQ/NMI induced VM exits
  when FRED is enabled (Sean Christopherson).

Changes since v4:
* Do NOT use the term "injection", which in the KVM context means to
  reinject an event into the guest (Sean Christopherson).
* Add the explanation of why to execute "int $2" to invoke the NMI handler
  in NMI caused VM exits (Sean Christopherson).
* Use cs/ss instead of csx/ssx when initializing the pt_regs structure
  for calling external_interrupt(), otherwise it breaks i386 build.

Changes since v3:
* Call external_interrupt() to handle IRQ in IRQ caused VM exits.
* Execute "int $2" to handle NMI in NMI caused VM exits.
* Rename csl/ssl of the pt_regs structure to csx/ssx (x for extended)
  (Andrew Cooper).

Changes since v2:
* Improve comments for changes in arch/x86/include/asm/idtentry.h.

Changes since v1:
* call irqentry_nmi_{enter,exit}() in both IDT and FRED debug fault kernel
  handler (Peter Zijlstra).
* Initialize a FRED exception handler to fred_bad_event() instead of NULL
  if no FRED handler defined for an exception vector (Peter Zijlstra).
* Push calling irqentry_{enter,exit}() and instrumentation_{begin,end}()
  down into individual FRED exception handlers, instead of in the dispatch
  framework (Peter Zijlstra).
