      KVM: nVMX: Ensure that VMCS12 field offsets do not change · 21ebf53b
      Jim Mattson authored 
      Enforce the invariant that existing VMCS12 field offsets must not
change. Experience has shown that without strict enforcement, this
invariant will not be maintained.

      KVM: nVMX: Restore the VMCS12 offsets for v4.0 fields · b348e793
      Jim Mattson authored 
      Changing the VMCS12 layout will break save/restore compatibility with
older kvm releases once the KVM_{GET,SET}_NESTED_STATE ioctls are
accepted upstream. Google has already been using these ioctls for some
time, and we implore the community not to disturb the existing layout.

Move the four most recently added fields to preserve the offsets of
the previously defined fields and reserve locations for the vmread and
vmwrite bitmaps, which will be used in the virtualization of VMCS
shadowing (to improve the performance of double-nesting).

      KVM: x86: use timespec64 for KVM_HC_CLOCK_PAIRING · 899a31f5
      Arnd Bergmann authored 
      The hypercall was added using a struct timespec based implementation,
but we should not use timespec in new code.

This changes it to timespec64. There is no functional change
here since the implementation is only used in 64-bit kernels
that use the same definition for timespec and timespec64.

      kvm: nVMX: Use nested_run_pending rather than from_vmentry · 6514dc38
      Jim Mattson authored 
      When saving a vCPU's nested state, the vmcs02 is discarded. Only the
shadow vmcs12 is saved. The shadow vmcs12 contains all of the
information needed to reconstruct an equivalent vmcs02 on restore, but
we have to be able to deal with two contexts:

1. The nested state was saved immediately after an emulated VM-entry,
   before the vmcs02 was ever launched.

2. The nested state was saved some time after the first successful
   launch of the vmcs02.

Though it's an implementation detail rather than an architected bit,
vmx->nested_run_pending serves to distinguish between these two
cases. Hence, we save it as part of the vCPU's nested state. (Yes,
this is ugly.)

Even when restoring from a checkpoint, it may be necessary to build
the vmcs02 as if prepare_vmcs02 was called from nested_vmx_run. So,
the 'from_vmentry' argument should be dropped, and
vmx->nested_run_pending should be consulted instead. The nested state
restoration code then has to set vmx->nested_run_pending prior to
calling prepare_vmcs02. It's important that the restoration code set
vmx->nested_run_pending anyway, since the flag impacts things like
interrupt delivery as well.

Fixes: cf8b84f4 ("kvm: nVMX: Prepare for checkpointing L2 state")
