[PATCH v2 6/7] KVM: VMX: Check Intel PT related CPUID leaves

From: Xiaoyao Li
Date: Fri Aug 27 2021 - 03:03:39 EST


CPUID 0xD leaves reports the capabilities of Intel PT, e.g. it decides
which bits are valid to be set in MSR_IA32_RTIT_CTL, and reports the
number of PT ADDR ranges.

KVM needs to check that guest CPUID values set by userspace doesn't
enable any bit which is not supported by bare metal. Otherwise,
1. it will trigger vm-entry failure if hardware unsupported bit is
exposed to guest and set by guest.
2. it triggers #GP when context switch PT MSRs if exposing more
RTIT_ADDR* MSRs than hardware capacity.

There is bit 31 of CPUID(0xD, 0).ECX that doesn't restrict any bit in
MSR_IA32_RTIT_CTL. If guest has different value than host, it won't
cause any vm-entry failure, but guest will parse the PT packet with
wrong format.

I also check it to be same as host to ensure the virtualization correctness.

Changes in v2:
- Call out that if configuring more PT ADDR MSRs than hardware, it can
cause #GP when context switch.
