[0/6] Allow userspace to manage MSRs

Message

Aaron Lewis Aug. 4, 2020, 4:20 a.m. UTC

This series makes it possible for userspace to manage MSRs by having KVM
forward select MSRs to it when rdmsr and wrmsr are executed in the guest.
Userspace can set this up by calling the ioctl KVM_SET_EXIT_MSRS with a
list of MSRs it wants to manage.  When KVM encounters any of these MSRs
they are forwarded to userspace for processing.  Userspace can then read
from or write to the MSR, or it can also throw a #GP if needed.

This series includes the kernel changes needed to implement this feature
and a test that exercises this behavior.  Also, included is an
implementation of expection handling in selftests, which allows the test
to excercise throwing a #GP.

Aaron Lewis (6):
  KVM: x86: Add ioctl for accepting a userspace provided MSR list
  KVM: x86: Add support for exiting to userspace on rdmsr or wrmsr
  KVM: x86: Prepare MSR bitmaps for userspace tracked MSRs
  KVM: x86: Ensure the MSR bitmap never clears userspace tracked MSRs
  selftests: kvm: Fix the segment descriptor layout to match the actual
    layout
  selftests: kvm: Add test to exercise userspace MSR list
