Series x86/vmx: implement Bus Lock and VM Notify | expand

Commit Message

Roger Pau Monne Dec. 13, 2022, 4:31 p.m. UTC
Add support for enabling guest Bus Lock Detection on Intel systems.
Such detection works by triggering a vmexit, which ought to be enough
of a pause to prevent a guest from abusing of the Bus Lock.

Add an extra Xen perf counter to track the number of Bus Locks detected.
This is done because Bus Locks can also be reported by setting the bit
26 in the exit reason field, so also account for those.

Note EXIT_REASON_BUS_LOCK VMExits will always have bit 26 set in
exit_reason, and hence the performance counter doesn't need to be
increased for EXIT_REASON_BUS_LOCK handling.

Changes since v3:
 - Style fixes.
 - Fix usage of exit_reason by nested handlers.

Changes since v2:
 - Subject/commit log adjustments.
 - Simply logic given bit 26 will always be set.

Changes since v1:
 - Adjust commit message.

Is there a particular reason this is added outside the / another CONFIG_HVM
conditional? (I realize the one we have only covers part of what's HVM-
specific, but it would be nice if new ones were constrained right away
(unless there's a clear expectation for them to be re-used in a more general
fashion).
