KVM SVM changes for 7.1 - Fix and optimize IRQ window inhibit handling for AVIC (the tracking needs to be per-vCPU, e.g. so that KVM doesn't prematurely re-enable AVIC if multiple vCPUs have to-be-injected IRQs). - Fix an undefined behavior warning where a crafty userspace can read the "avic" module param before it's fully initialized. - Fix a (likely benign) bug in the "OS-visible workarounds" handling, where KVM could clobber state when enabling virtualization on multiple CPUs in parallel, and clean up and optimize the code. - Drop a WARN in KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_REG_REGION where KVM complains about a "too large" size based purely on user input, and clean up and harden the related pinning code. - Disallow synchronizing a VMSA of an already-launched/encrypted vCPU, as doing so for an SNP guest will trigger an RMP violation #PF and crash the host. - Protect all of sev_mem_enc_register_region() with kvm->lock to ensure sev_guest() is stable for the entire of the function. - Lock all vCPUs when synchronizing VMSAs for SNP guests to ensure the VMSA page isn't actively being used. - Overhaul KVM's APIs for detecting SEV+ guests so that VM-scoped queries are required to hold kvm->lock (KVM has had multiple bugs due "is SEV?" checks becoming stale), enforced by lockdep. Add and use vCPU-scoped APIs when possible/appropriate, as all checks that originate from a vCPU are guaranteed to be stable. - Convert a pile of kvm->lock SEV code to guard().

KVM x86 VMXON and EFER.SVME extraction for 7.1 Move _only_ VMXON+VMXOFF and EFER.SVME toggling out of KVM (versus all of VMX and SVM enabling) out of KVM and into the core kernel so that non-KVM TDX enabling, e.g. for trusted I/O, can make SEAMCALLs without needing to ensure KVM is fully loaded. TIO isn't a hypervisor, and isn't trying to be a hypervisor. Specifically, TIO should _never_ have it's own VMCSes (that are visible to the host; the TDX-Module has it's own VMCSes to do SEAMCALL/SEAMRET), and so there is simply no reason to move that functionality out of KVM. With that out of the way, dealing with VMXON/VMXOFF and EFER.SVME is a fairly simple refcounting game.

KVM x86 emulated MMIO changes for 7.1 Copy single-chunk MMIO write values into a persistent (per-fragment) field to fix use-after-free stack bugs due to KVM dereferencing a stack pointer after an exit to userspace. Clean up and comment the emulated MMIO code to try to make it easier to maintain (not necessarily "easy", but "easier").
2026-04-03KVM: SEV: Disallow LAUNCH_FINISH if vCPUs are actively being createdSean Christopherson1-0/+7
Reject LAUNCH_FINISH for SEV-ES and SNP VMs if KVM is actively creating one or more vCPUs, as KVM needs to process and encrypt each vCPU's VMSA. Letting userspace create vCPUs while LAUNCH_FINISH is in-progress is "fine", at least in the current code base, as kvm_for_each_vcpu() operates on online_vcpus, LAUNCH_FINISH (all SEV+ sub-ioctls) holds kvm->mutex, and fully onlining a vCPU in kvm_vm_ioctl_create_vcpu() is done under kvm->mutex. I.e. there's no difference between an in-progress vCPU and a vCPU that is created entirely after LAUNCH_FINISH. However, given that concurrent LAUNCH_FINISH and vCPU creation can't possibly work (for any reasonable definition of "work"), since userspace can't guarantee whether a particular vCPU will be encrypted or not, disallow the combination as a hardening measure, to reduce the probability of introducing bugs in the future, and to avoid having to reason about the safety of future changes related to LAUNCH_FINISH.

2026-03-03KVM: x86: Use scratch field in MMIO fragment to hold small write valuesSean Christopherson1-1/+2
When exiting to userspace to service an emulated MMIO write, copy the to-be-written value to a scratch field in the MMIO fragment if the size of the data payload is 8 bytes or less, i.e. can fit in a single chunk, instead of pointing the fragment directly at the source value. This fixes a class of use-after-free bugs that occur when the emulator initiates a write using an on-stack, local variable as the source, the write splits a page boundary, *and* both pages are MMIO pages. Because KVM's ABI only allows for physically contiguous MMIO requests, accesses that split MMIO pages are separated into two fragments, and are sent to userspace one at a time. When KVM attempts to complete userspace MMIO in response to KVM_RUN after the first fragment, KVM will detect the second fragment and generate a second userspace exit, and reference the on-stack variable. The issue is most visible if the second KVM_RUN is performed by a separate task, in which case the stack of the initiating task can show up as truly freed data. ================================================================== BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in complete_emulated_mmio+0x305/0x420 Read of size 1 at addr ffff888009c378d1 by task syz-executor417/984 CPU: 1 PID: 984 Comm: syz-executor417 Not tainted 5.10.0-182.0.0.95.h2627.eulerosv2r13.x86_64 #3 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.15.0-0-g2dd4b9b3f840-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014 Call Trace: dump_stack+0xbe/0xfd print_address_description.constprop.0+0x19/0x170 __kasan_report.cold+0x6c/0x84 kasan_report+0x3a/0x50 check_memory_region+0xfd/0x1f0 memcpy+0x20/0x60 complete_emulated_mmio+0x305/0x420 kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run+0x63f/0x6d0 kvm_vcpu_ioctl+0x413/0xb20 __se_sys_ioctl+0x111/0x160 do_syscall_64+0x30/0x40 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x67/0xd1 RIP: 0033:0x42477d Code: <48> 3d 01 f0 ff ff 73 01 c3 48 c7 c1 b0 ff ff ff f7 d8 64 89 01 48 RSP: 002b:00007faa8e6890e8 EFLAGS: 00000246 ORIG_RAX: 0000000000000010 RAX: ffffffffffffffda RBX: 00000000004d7338 RCX: 000000000042477d RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 000000000000ae80 RDI: 0000000000000005 RBP: 00000000004d7330 R08: 00007fff28d546df R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000246 R12: 00000000004d733c R13: 0000000000000000 R14: 000000000040a200 R15: 00007fff28d54720 The buggy address belongs to the page: page:0000000029f6a428 refcount:0 mapcount:0 mapping:0000000000000000 index:0x0 pfn:0x9c37 flags: 0xfffffc0000000(node=0|zone=1|lastcpupid=0x1fffff) raw: 000fffffc0000000 0000000000000000 ffffea0000270dc8 0000000000000000 raw: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 00000000ffffffff 0000000000000000 page dumped because: kasan: bad access detected Memory state around the buggy address: ffff888009c37780: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ffff888009c37800: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff >ffff888009c37880: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ^ ffff888009c37900: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ffff888009c37980: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ================================================================== The bug can also be reproduced with a targeted KVM-Unit-Test by hacking KVM to fill a large on-stack variable in complete_emulated_mmio(), i.e. by overwrite the data value with garbage. Limit the use of the scratch fields to 8-byte or smaller accesses, and to just writes, as larger accesses and reads are not affected thanks to implementation details in the emulator, but add a sanity check to ensure those details don't change in the future. Specifically, KVM never uses on-stack variables for accesses larger that 8 bytes, e.g. uses an operand in the emulator context, and *all* reads are buffered through the mem_read cache. Note! Using the scratch field for reads is not only unnecessary, it's also extremely difficult to handle correctly. As above, KVM buffers all reads through the mem_read cache, and heavily relies on that behavior when re-emulating the instruction after a userspace MMIO read exit. If a read splits a page, the first page is NOT an MMIO page, and the second page IS an MMIO page, then the MMIO fragment needs to point at _just_ the second chunk of the destination, i.e. its position in the mem_read cache. Taking the "obvious" approach of copying the fragment value into the destination when re-emulating the instruction would clobber the first chunk of the destination, i.e. would clobber the data that was read from guest memory.

KVM mediated PMU support for 6.20 Add support for mediated PMUs, where KVM gives the guest full ownership of PMU hardware (contexted switched around the fastpath run loop) and allows direct access to data MSRs and PMCs (restricted by the vPMU model), but intercepts access to control registers, e.g. to enforce event filtering and to prevent the guest from profiling sensitive host state. To keep overall complexity reasonable, mediated PMU usage is all or nothing for a given instance of KVM (controlled via module param). The Mediated PMU is disabled default, partly to maintain backwards compatilibity for existing setup, partly because there are tradeoffs when running with a mediated PMU that may be non-starters for some use cases, e.g. the host loses the ability to profile guests with mediated PMUs, the fastpath run loop is also a blind spot, entry/exit transitions are more expensive, etc. Versus the emulated PMU, where KVM is "just another perf user", the mediated PMU delivers more accurate profiling and monitoring (no risk of contention and thus dropped events), with significantly less overhead (fewer exits and faster emulation/programming of event selectors) E.g. when running Specint-2017 on a single-socket Sapphire Rapids with 56 cores and no-SMT, and using perf from within the guest: Perf command: a. basic-sampling: perf record -F 1000 -e 6-instructions -a --overwrite b. multiplex-sampling: perf record -F 1000 -e 10-instructions -a --overwrite Guest performance overhead: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Test case | emulated vPMU | all passthrough | passthrough with | | | | | event filters | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | basic-sampling | 33.62% | 4.24% | 6.21% | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | multiplex-sampling | 79.32% | 7.34% | 10.45% | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

KVM x86 APIC-ish changes for 6.20 - Fix a benign bug where KVM could use the wrong memslots (ignored SMM) when creating a vCPU-specific mapping of guest memory. - Clean up KVM's handling of marking mapped vCPU pages dirty. - Drop a pile of *ancient* sanity checks hidden behind in KVM's unused ASSERT() macro, most of which could be trivially triggered by the guest and/or user, and all of which were useless. - Fold "struct dest_map" into its sole user, "struct rtc_status", to make it more obvious what the weird parameter is used for, and to allow burying the RTC shenanigans behind CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC=y. - Bury all of ioapic.h and KVM_IRQCHIP_KERNEL behind CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC=y. - Add a regression test for recent APICv update fixes. - Rework KVM's handling of VMCS updates while L2 is active to temporarily switch to vmcs01 instead of deferring the update until the next nested VM-Exit. The deferred updates approach directly contributed to several bugs, was proving to be a maintenance burden due to the difficulty in auditing the correctness of deferred updates, and was polluting "struct nested_vmx" with a growing pile of booleans. - Handle "hardware APIC ISR", a.k.a. SVI, updates in kvm_apic_update_apicv() to consolidate the updates, and to co-locate SVI updates with the updates for KVM's own cache of ISR information. - Drop a dead function declaration.
2026-02-10KVM: s390: Use guest address to mark guest page dirtyClaudio Imbrenda1-0/+2
Stop using the userspace address to mark the guest page dirty. mark_page_dirty() expects a guest frame number, but was being passed a host virtual frame number. When slot == NULL, mark_page_dirty_in_slot() does nothing and does not complain. This means that in some circumstances the dirtiness of the guest page might have been lost. Fix by adding two fields in struct kvm_s390_adapter_int to keep the guest addressses, and use those for mark_page_dirty().

2026-01-15KVM: guest_memfd: GUP source pages prior to populating guest memoryMichael Roth1-2/+2
Currently the post-populate callbacks handle copying source pages into private GPA ranges backed by guest_memfd, where kvm_gmem_populate() acquires the filemap invalidate lock, then calls a post-populate callback which may issue a get_user_pages() on the source pages prior to copying them into the private GPA (e.g. TDX). This will not be compatible with in-place conversion, where the userspace page fault path will attempt to acquire the filemap invalidate lock while holding the mm->mmap_lock, leading to a potential ABBA deadlock. Address this by hoisting the GUP above the filemap invalidate lock so that these page faults path can be taken early, prior to acquiring the filemap invalidate lock. It's not currently clear whether this issue is reachable with the current implementation of guest_memfd, which doesn't support in-place conversion, however it does provide a consistent mechanism to provide stable source/target PFNs to callbacks rather than punting to vendor-specific code, which allows for more commonality across architectures, which may be worthwhile even without in-place conversion. As part of this change, also begin enforcing that the 'src' argument to kvm_gmem_populate() must be page-aligned, as this greatly reduces the complexity around how the post-populate callbacks are implemented, and since no current in-tree users support using a non-page-aligned 'src' argument.

2026-01-15KVM: guest_memfd: Remove partial hugepage handling from kvm_gmem_populate()Michael Roth1-1/+1
kvm_gmem_populate(), and the associated post-populate callbacks, have some limited support for dealing with guests backed by hugepages by passing the order information along to each post-populate callback and iterating through the pages passed to kvm_gmem_populate() in hugepage-chunks. However, guest_memfd doesn't yet support hugepages, and in most cases additional changes in the kvm_gmem_populate() path would also be needed to actually allow for this functionality. This makes the existing code unnecessarily complex, and makes changes difficult to work through upstream due to theoretical impacts on hugepage support that can't be considered properly without an actual hugepage implementation to reference. So for now, remove what's there so changes for things like in-place conversion can be implemented/reviewed more efficiently.

KVM x86 fixes for 6.18: - Expand the KVM_PRE_FAULT_MEMORY selftest to add a regression test for the bug fixed by commit 3ccbf6f47098 ("KVM: x86/mmu: Return -EAGAIN if userspace deletes/moves memslot during prefault") - Don't try to get PMU capabbilities from perf when running a CPU with hybrid CPUs/PMUs, as perf will rightly WARN. - Rework KVM_CAP_GUEST_MEMFD_MMAP (newly introduced in 6.18) into a more generic KVM_CAP_GUEST_MEMFD_FLAGS - Add a guest_memfd INIT_SHARED flag and require userspace to explicitly set said flag to initialize memory as SHARED, irrespective of MMAP. The behavior merged in 6.18 is that enabling mmap() implicitly initializes memory as SHARED, which would result in an ABI collision for x86 CoCo VMs as their memory is currently always initialized PRIVATE. - Allow mmap() on guest_memfd for x86 CoCo VMs, i.e. on VMs with private memory, to enable testing such setups, i.e. to hopefully flush out any other lurking ABI issues before 6.18 is officially released. - Add testcases to the guest_memfd selftest to cover guest_memfd without MMAP, and host userspace accesses to mmap()'d private memory.
2025-10-11KVM: guest_memfd: Allow mmap() on guest_memfd for x86 VMs with private memorySean Christopherson1-1/+11
Allow mmap() on guest_memfd instances for x86 VMs with private memory as the need to track private vs. shared state in the guest_memfd instance is only pertinent to INIT_SHARED. Doing mmap() on private memory isn't terrible useful (yet!), but it's now possible, and will be desirable when guest_memfd gains support for other VMA-based syscalls, e.g. mbind() to set NUMA policy. Lift the restriction now, before MMAP support is officially released, so that KVM doesn't need to add another capability to enumerate support for mmap() on private memory.

Move KVM's morphing of pending signals into userspace exits into KVM proper, and drop the @vcpu param from xfer_to_guest_mode_handle_work(). How KVM responds to -EINTR is a detail that really belongs in KVM itself, and invoking kvm_handle_signal_exit() from kernel code creates an inverted module dependency. E.g. attempting to move kvm_handle_signal_exit() into kvm_main.c would generate an linker error when building kvm.ko as a module. Dropping KVM details will also converting the KVM "entry" code into a more generic virtualization framework so that it can be used when running as a Hyper-V root partition. Lastly, eliminating usage of "struct kvm_vcpu" outside of KVM is also nice to have for KVM x86 developers, as keeping the details of kvm_vcpu purely within KVM allows changing the layout of the structure without having to boot into a new kernel, e.g. allows rebuilding and reloading kvm.ko with a modified kvm_vcpu structure as part of debug/development.

This will hopefully help debugging non-VHE setups. - Add 52bit PA support to the stage-1 page-table walker, and make use of it to populate the fault level reported to the guest on failing to translate a stage-1 walk. - Add NV support to the GICv3-on-GICv5 emulation code, ensuring feature parity for guests, irrespective of the host platform. - Fix some really ugly architecture problems when dealing with debug in a nested VM. This has some bad performance impacts, but is at least correct. - Add enough infrastructure to be able to disable EL2 features and give effective values to the EL2 control registers. This then allows a bunch of features to be turned off, which helps cross-host migration. - Large rework of the selftest infrastructure to allow most tests to transparently run at EL2. This is the first step towards enabling NV testing. - Various fixes and improvements all over the map, including one BE fix, just in time for the removal of the feature.

Add a new internal flag, KVM_MEMSLOT_GMEM_ONLY, to the top half of memslot->flags (which makes it strictly for KVM's internal use). This flag tracks when a guest_memfd-backed memory slot supports host userspace mmap operations, which implies that all memory, not just private memory for CoCo VMs, is consumed through guest_memfd: "gmem only". This optimization avoids repeatedly checking the underlying guest_memfd file for mmap support, which would otherwise require taking and releasing a reference on the file for each check. By caching this information directly in the memslot, we reduce overhead and simplify the logic involved in handling guest_memfd-backed pages for host mappings.

2025-08-27KVM: guest_memfd: Add plumbing to host to map guest_memfd pagesFuad Tabba1-0/+4
Introduce the core infrastructure to enable host userspace to mmap() guest_memfd-backed memory. This is needed for several evolving KVM use cases: * Non-CoCo VM backing: Allows VMMs like Firecracker to run guests entirely backed by guest_memfd, even for non-CoCo VMs [1]. This provides a unified memory management model and simplifies guest memory handling. * Direct map removal for enhanced security: This is an important step for direct map removal of guest memory [2]. By allowing host userspace to fault in guest_memfd pages directly, we can avoid maintaining host kernel direct maps of guest memory. This provides additional hardening against Spectre-like transient execution attacks by removing a potential attack surface within the kernel. * Future guest_memfd features: This also lays the groundwork for future enhancements to guest_memfd, such as supporting huge pages and enabling in-place sharing of guest memory with the host for CoCo platforms that permit it [3]. Enable the basic mmap and fault handling logic within guest_memfd, but hold off on allow userspace to actually do mmap() until the architecture support is also in place.

This Kconfig option specifically enables and gates the kvm_gmem_populate() function, which is responsible for populating a GPA range with guest data. The new name, HAVE_KVM_ARCH_GMEM_POPULATE, describes the purpose of the option: to enable arch-specific guest_memfd population mechanisms. It also follows the same pattern as the other HAVE_KVM_ARCH_* configuration options. This improves clarity for developers and ensures the name accurately reflects the functionality it controls, especially as guest_memfd support expands beyond purely "private" memory scenarios. Temporarily keep KVM_GENERIC_PRIVATE_MEM as an x86-only config so as to minimize churn, and to hopefully make it easier to see what features require HAVE_KVM_ARCH_GMEM_POPULATE. On that note, omit GMEM_POPULATE for KVM_X86_SW_PROTECTED_VM, as regular ol' memset() suffices for software-protected VMs. As for KVM_GENERIC_PRIVATE_MEM, a future change will select KVM_GUEST_MEMFD for all 64-bit KVM builds, at which point the intermediate config will become obsolete and can/will be dropped.

Trigger the I/O APIC route rescan that's performed for a split IRQ chip after userspace updates IRQ routes in kvm_arch_irq_routing_update(), i.e. before dropping kvm->irq_lock. Calling kvm_make_all_cpus_request() under a mutex is perfectly safe, and the smp_wmb()+smp_mb__after_atomic() pair in __kvm_make_request()+kvm_check_request() ensures the new routing is visible to vCPUs prior to the request being visible to vCPUs. In all likelihood, commit b053b2aef25d ("KVM: x86: Add EOI exit bitmap inference") somewhat arbitrarily made the request outside of irq_lock to avoid holding irq_lock any longer than is strictly necessary. And then commit abdb080f7ac8 ("kvm/irqchip: kvm_arch_irq_routing_update renaming split") took the easy route of adding another arch hook instead of risking a functional change. Note, the call to synchronize_srcu_expedited() does NOT provide ordering guarantees with respect to vCPUs scanning the new routing; as above, the request infrastructure provides the necessary ordering. I.e. there's no need to wait for kvm_scan_ioapic_routes() to complete if it's actively running, because regardless of whether it grabs the old or new table, the vCPU will have another KVM_REQ_SCAN_IOAPIC pending, i.e. will rescan again and see the new mappings.

2025-05-27KVM: add kvm_lock_all_vcpus and kvm_trylock_all_vcpusMaxim Levitsky1-0/+4
In a few cases, usually in the initialization code, KVM locks all vCPUs of a VM to ensure that userspace doesn't do funny things while KVM performs an operation that affects the whole VM. Until now, all these operations were implemented using custom code, and all of them share the same problem: Lockdep can't cope with simultaneous locking of a large number of locks of the same class. However if these locks are taken while another lock is already held, which is luckily the case, it is possible to take advantage of little known _nest_lock feature of lockdep which allows in this case to have an unlimited number of locks of same class to be taken. To implement this, create two functions: kvm_lock_all_vcpus() and kvm_trylock_all_vcpus() Both functions are needed because some code that will be replaced in the subsequent patches, uses mutex_trylock, instead of regular mutex_lock.

2025-04-24KVM: SVM: Fix SNP AP destroy race with VMRUNTom Lendacky1-1/+18
An AP destroy request for a target vCPU is typically followed by an RMPADJUST to remove the VMSA attribute from the page currently being used as the VMSA for the target vCPU. This can result in a vCPU that is about to VMRUN to exit with #VMEXIT_INVALID. This usually does not happen as APs are typically sitting in HLT when being destroyed and therefore the vCPU thread is not running at the time. However, if HLT is allowed inside the VM, then the vCPU could be about to VMRUN when the VMSA attribute is removed from the VMSA page, resulting in a #VMEXIT_INVALID when the vCPU actually issues the VMRUN and causing the guest to crash. An RMPADJUST against an in-use (already running) VMSA results in a #NPF for the vCPU issuing the RMPADJUST, so the VMSA attribute cannot be changed until the VMRUN for target vCPU exits. The Qemu command line option '-overcommit cpu-pm=on' is an example of allowing HLT inside the guest. Update the KVM_REQ_UPDATE_PROTECTED_GUEST_STATE event to include the KVM_REQUEST_WAIT flag. The kvm_vcpu_kick() function will not wait for requests to be honored, so create kvm_make_request_and_kick() that will add a new event request and honor the KVM_REQUEST_WAIT flag. This will ensure that the target vCPU sees the AP destroy request before returning to the initiating vCPU should the target vCPU be in guest mode.

2025-04-07Merge branch 'kvm-tdx-initial' into HEADPaolo Bonzini1-0/+10
This large commit contains the initial support for TDX in KVM. All x86 parts enable the host-side hypercalls that KVM uses to talk to the TDX module, a software component that runs in a special CPU mode called SEAM (Secure Arbitration Mode). The series is in turn split into multiple sub-series, each with a separate merge commit: - Initialization: basic setup for using the TDX module from KVM, plus ioctls to create TDX VMs and vCPUs. - MMU: in TDX, private and shared halves of the address space are mapped by different EPT roots, and the private half is managed by the TDX module. Using the support that was added to the generic MMU code in 6.14, add support for TDX's secure page tables to the Intel side of KVM. Generic KVM code takes care of maintaining a mirror of the secure page tables so that they can be queried efficiently, and ensuring that changes are applied to both the mirror and the secure EPT. - vCPU enter/exit: implement the callbacks that handle the entry of a TDX vCPU (via the SEAMCALL TDH.VP.ENTER) and the corresponding save/restore of host state. - Userspace exits: introduce support for guest TDVMCALLs that KVM forwards to userspace. These correspond to the usual KVM_EXIT_* "heavyweight vmexits" but are triggered through a different mechanism, similar to VMGEXIT for SEV-ES and SEV-SNP. - Interrupt handling: support for virtual interrupt injection as well as handling VM-Exits that are caused by vectored events. Exclusive to TDX are machine-check SMIs, which the kernel already knows how to handle through the kernel machine check handler (commit 7911f145de5f, "x86/mce: Implement recovery for errors in TDX/SEAM non-root mode") - Loose ends: handling of the remaining exits from the TDX module, including EPT violation/misconfig and several TDVMCALL leaves that are handled in the kernel (CPUID, HLT, RDMSR/WRMSR, GetTdVmCallInfo); plus returning an error or ignoring operations that are not supported by TDX guests Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
