In my setup, EPT is not exposed to L1, the VPID capability is exposed and
can be observed by vmxcap tool in L1:
INVVPID supported                        yes
Individual-address INVVPID               yes
Single-context INVVPID                   yes
All-context INVVPID                      yes
Single-context-retaining-globals INVVPID yes

However, the module parameter of VPID observed in L1 is always N, the
cpu_has_vmx_invvpid() check in L1 KVM fails since vmx_capability.vpid
is 0 and it is not read from MSR due to EPT is not exposed.

The VPID can be used to tag linear mappings when EPT is not enabled. However,
current logic just detects VPID capability if EPT is enabled, this patch
fixes it.

I can use vmxcap tool to observe "EPTP Switching   yes" even if EPT is not
exposed to L1.

EPT switching is advertised unconditionally since it is emulated, however,
it can be treated as an extended feature for EPT and it should not be
advertised if EPT itself is not exposed. This patch fixes it.

Commit 05cade71 ("KVM: nSVM: fix SMI injection in guest mode") made
KVM mask SMI if GIF=0 but it didn't do anything to unmask it when GIF is
enabled.

The issue manifests for me as a significantly longer boot time of Windows
guests when running with SMM-enabled OVMF.

This commit fixes it by intercepting STGI instead of requesting immediate
exit if the reason why SMM was masked is GIF.

Entering SMM while running in guest mode wasn't working very well because several
pieces of the vcpu state were left set up for nested operation.

Some of the issues observed:

* L1 was getting unexpected VM exits (using L1 interception controls but running
  in SMM execution environment)
* MMU was confused (walk_mmu was still set to nested_mmu)
* INTERCEPT_SMI was not emulated for L1 (KVM never injected SVM_EXIT_SMI)

Intel SDM actually prescribes the logical processor to "leave VMX operation" upon
entering SMM in 34.14.1 Default Treatment of SMI Delivery. AMD doesn't seem to
document this but they provide fields in the SMM state-save area to stash the
current state of SVM. What we need to do is basically get out of guest mode for
the duration of SMM. All this completely transparent to L1, i.e. L1 is not given
control and no L1 observable state changes.

To avoid code duplication this commit takes advantage of the existing nested
vmexit and run functionality, perhaps at the cost of efficiency. To get out of
guest mode, nested_svm_vmexit is called, unchanged. Re-entering is performed using
enter_svm_guest_mode.

Some of the issues observed:

To avoid code duplication this commit takes advantage of the existing nested

Checking the mode is unnecessary, and is done without a memory barrier
separating the LAPIC write from the vcpu->mode read; in addition,
kvm_vcpu_wake_up is already doing a check for waiters on the wait queue
that has the same effect.

In practice it's safe because spin_lock has full-barrier semantics on x86,
but don't be too clever.

 "If either the “unrestricted guest†VM-execution control or the “mode-based

The description in the Intel SDM of how the divide configuration
register is used: "The APIC timer frequency will be the processor's bus
clock or core crystal clock frequency divided by the value specified in
the divide configuration register."

Observation of baremetal shown that when the TDCR is change, the TMCCT
does not change or make a big jump in value, but the rate at which it
count down change.

The patch update the emulation to APIC timer to so that a change to the
divide configuration would be reflected in the value of the counter and
when the next interrupt is triggered.

If we take TSC-deadline mode timer out of the picture, the Intel SDM
does not say that the timer is disable when the timer mode is change,
either from one-shot to periodic or vice versa.

After this patch, the timer is no longer disarmed on change of mode, so
the counter (TMCCT) keeps counting down.

So what does a write to LVTT changes ? On baremetal, the change of mode
is probably taken into account only when the counter reach 0. When this
happen, LVTT is use to figure out if the counter should restard counting
down from TMICT (so periodic mode) or stop counting (if one-shot mode).

This patch is based on observation of the behavior of the APIC timer on
baremetal as well as check that they does not go against the description
written in the Intel SDM.
