[PATCH v9 3/7] KVM: VMX: Pass through CET related MSRs

From: Yang Weijiang
Date: Thu Dec 26 2019 - 21:07:49 EST


CET MSRs pass through Guest directly to enhance performance.
CET runtime control settings are stored in MSR_IA32_{U,S}_CET,
Shadow Stack Pointer(SSP) are stored in MSR_IA32_PL{0,1,2,3}_SSP,
SSP table base address is stored in MSR_IA32_INT_SSP_TAB,
these MSRs are defined in kernel and re-used here.

MSR_IA32_U_CET and MSR_IA32_PL3_SSP are used for user mode protection,
the contents could differ from process to process, therefore,
kernel needs to save/restore them during context switch, it makes
sense to pass through them so that the guest kernel can
use xsaves/xrstors to operate them efficiently. Other MSRs are used
for non-user mode protection. See CET spec for detailed info.

The difference between CET VMCS state fields and xsave components is that,
the former used for CET state storage during VMEnter/VMExit,
whereas the latter used for state retention between Guest task/process
switch.
