[0/6] SEV-SNP restricted injection hypervisor patches

Operating systems may not handle unexpected interrupt or exception sequences.
A malicious hypervisor can inject random interrupt or exception sequences,
putting guest drivers or guest OS kernels into an unexpected state, which could
lead to security issues.

To address this concern, SEV-SNP restricts the injection of interrupts and
exceptions to those only allowed by the guest. Restricted Injection disables
all hypervisor-based interrupt queuing and event injection for all vectors,
allowing only a single vector, #HV (28), which is reserved for SNP guest use
but is never generated by hardware. #HV is only permitted to be injected into
VMSAs that execute with Restricted Injection.

Guests operating with Restricted Injection are expected to communicate with the
hypervisor about events via a software-managed para-virtualization interface.
This interface can utilize #HV injection as a doorbell to inform the guest that
new events have occurred. This patch set implements Restricted Injection on the
KVM side directly into VMPL0.

Overview:

The GHCB 2.0 specification[1] defines #HV doorbell page and the #HV doorbell
page NAE event allows for an SEV-SNP guest to register a doorbell page for use
with the hypervisor injection exception (#HV). When Restricted Injection is
active, only #HV exceptions can be injected into the guest, and the hypervisor
follows the GHCB #HV doorbell communication to inject the exception or
interrupt. Restricted Injection can be enabled by setting the bit in
vmsa_features.

The patchset is rebased on the kvm/next (commit 1773014a975919195be71646fc2c2cad1570fce4).

Testing:

The patchset has been tested with the sev-snp guest, ovmf and qemu supporting
restricted injection.

Four test sets:
1.ls -lr /
2.apt update
3.fio
4.perf

Thanks
