The HOST_{FS,GS}_BASE fields are guaranteed to be written prior to

Make host_state a property of a loaded_vmcs so that it can be
used as a cache of the VMCS fields, e.g. to lazily VMWRITE the
corresponding VMCS field.  Treating host_state as a cache does
not work if it's not VMCS specific as the cache would become
incoherent when switching between vmcs01 and vmcs02.

Move vmcs_host_cr3 and vmcs_host_cr4 into host_state.

Explicitly zero out host_state when allocating a new VMCS for a
loaded_vmcs.  Unlike the pre-existing vmcs_host_cr{3,4} usage,
the segment information is not guaranteed to be (re)initialized

prepare_vmcs02() has an odd comment that says certain fields are
"not in vmcs02".  AFAICT the intent of the comment is to document
that various VMCS fields are not handled by prepare_vmcs02(),
e.g. HOST_{FS,GS}_{BASE,SELECTOR}.  While technically true, the
comment is misleading, e.g. it can lead the reader to think that
KVM never writes those fields to vmcs02.

Remove the comment altogether as the handling of FS and GS is
not specific to nested VMX, and GUEST_PML_INDEX has been written
by prepare_vmcs02() since commit "4e59516a (kvm: vmx: ensure

When lazy save/restore of MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASE was introduced[1], the
MSR was intercepted in all modes and was only restored for the host
when the guest is in 64-bit mode.  So at the time, going through the
full host restore prior to accessing MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASE was necessary
to load host state and was not a significant waste of cycles.

Later, MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASE interception was disabled for a 64-bit
guest[2], and then unconditionally saved/restored for the host[3].
As a result, loading full host state is overkill for accesses to
MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASE, and completely unnecessary when the guest is
not in 64-bit mode.

Add a dedicated utility to read/write the guest's MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASE
(outside of the save/restore flow) to minimize the overhead incurred
when accessing the MSR.  When setting EFER, only decache the MSR if
the new EFER will disable long mode.

Removing out-of-band usage of vmx_load_host_state() also eliminates,
or at least reduces, potential corner cases in its usage, which in
turn will (hopefuly) make it easier to reason about future changes
to the save/restore flow, e.g. optimization of saving host state.

Using 'struct loaded_vmcs*' to track whether the CPU registers
contain host or guest state kills two birds with one stone.

  1. The (effective) boolean host_state.loaded is poorly named.
     It does not track whether or not host state is loaded into
     the CPU registers (which most readers would expect), but
     rather tracks if host state has been saved AND guest state
     is loaded.

  2. Using a loaded_vmcs pointer provides a more robust framework
     for the optimized guest/host state switching, especially when
     consideration per-VMCS enhancements.  To that end, WARN_ONCE
     if we try to switch to host state with a different VMCS than
     was last used to save host state.

Resolve an occurrence of the new WARN by setting loaded_vmcs after
the call to vmx_vcpu_put() in vmx_switch_vmcs().

Use local variables in vmx_save_host_state() to temporarily track
the selector and base values for FS and GS, and reorganize the
code so that the 64-bit vs 32-bit portions are contained within
a single #ifdef.  This refactoring paves the way for future patches
to modify the updating of VMCS state with minimal changes to the
code, and (hopefully) simplifies resolving a likely conflict with
another in-flight patch[1] by being the whipping boy for future
patches.

We are currently cutting hva_to_pfn_fast short if we do not want an

this is unnecessary, and __get_user_pages_fast is *much* faster

When using shadow paging, a CR3 switch in the guest results in a VM Exit.
In the common case, that VM exit doesn't require much processing by KVM.
However, it does acquire the MMU lock, which can start showing signs of
contention under some workloads even on a 2 VCPU VM when the guest is
using KPTI. Therefore, we add a fast path that avoids acquiring the MMU
lock in the most common cases e.g. when switching back and forth between
the kernel and user mode CR3s used by KPTI with no guest page table
changes in between.

For now, this fast path is implemented only for 64-bit guests and hosts
to avoid the handling of PDPTEs, but it can be extended later to 32-bit
guests and/or hosts as well.
