Commit 47c42e6b4192 ("KVM: x86: fix handling of role.cr4_pae and rename it
to 'gpte_size'") introduced a regression: 32-bit PAE guests stopped
working. The issue appears to be: when guest switches (enables) PAE we need
to re-initialize MMU context (set context-&gt;root_level, do
reset_rsvds_bits_mask(), ...) but init_kvm_tdp_mmu() doesn't do that
because we threw away is_pae(vcpu) flag from mmu role. Restore it to
kvm_mmu_extended_role (as we now don't need it in base role) to fix
the issue.

KVM's recent bug fix to update %rip after emulating I/O broke userspace
that relied on the previous behavior of incrementing %rip prior to
exiting to userspace.  When running a Windows XP guest on AMD hardware,
Qemu may patch "OUT 0x7E" instructions in reaction to the OUT itself.
Because KVM's old behavior was to increment %rip before exiting to
userspace to handle the I/O, Qemu manually adjusted %rip to account for
the OUT instruction.

Arguably this is a userspace bug as KVM requires userspace to re-enter
the kernel to complete instruction emulation before taking any other
actions.  That being said, this is a bit of a grey area and breaking
userspace that has worked for many years is bad.

Pre-increment %rip on OUT to port 0x7e before exiting to userspace to
hack around the issue.

This doesn't really do anything, but at least we now parse teh
ZERO_PAGE() address argument so that we'll catch the most obvious errors
in usage next time they'll happen.

See commit 6a5c5d26c4c6 ("rdma: fix build errors on s390 and MIPS due to
bad ZERO_PAGE use") what happens when we don't have any use of the macro
argument at all.

RSM emulation is currently broken on VMX when the interrupted guest has
CR4.VMXE=1.  Rather than dance around the issue of HF_SMM_MASK being set
when loading SMSTATE into architectural state, ideally RSM emulation
itself would be reworked to clear HF_SMM_MASK prior to loading non-SMM
architectural state.

Ostensibly, the only motivation for having HF_SMM_MASK set throughout
the loading of state from the SMRAM save state area is so that the
memory accesses from GET_SMSTATE() are tagged with role.smm.  Load
all of the SMRAM save state area from guest memory at the beginning of
RSM emulation, and load state from the buffer instead of reading guest
memory one-by-one.

This paves the way for clearing HF_SMM_MASK prior to loading state,
and also aligns RSM with the enter_smm() behavior, which fills a
buffer and writes SMRAM save state in a single go.

KVM bases its memory usage limits on the total number of guest pages
across all memslots. However, those limits, and the calculations to
produce them, use 32 bit unsigned integers. This can result in overflow
if a VM has more guest pages that can be represented by a u32. As a
result of this overflow, KVM can use a low limit on the number of MMU
pages it will allocate. This makes KVM unable to map all of guest memory
at once, prompting spurious faults.

Tested: Ran all kvm-unit-tests on an Intel Haswell machine. This patch
	introduced no new failures.

<content type='text'>
The remaining failures of vmx.flat when EPT is disabled are caused by
incorrectly reflecting VMfails to the L1 hypervisor.  What happens is
that nested_vmx_restore_host_state corrupts the guest CR3, reloading it
with the host's shadow CR3 instead, because it blindly loads GUEST_CR3
from the vmcs01.

For simplicity let's just always use hardware VMCS checks when EPT is
disabled.  This way, nested_vmx_restore_host_state is not reached at
all (or at least shouldn't be reached).

The remaining failures of vmx.flat when EPT is disabled are caused by
incorrectly reflecting VMfails to the L1 hypervisor.  What happens is
that nested_vmx_restore_host_state corrupts the guest CR3, reloading it
with the host's shadow CR3 instead, because it blindly loads GUEST_CR3
from the vmcs01.

all (or at least shouldn't be reached).
