"hw.vmm.trace_guest_exceptions". To enable this feature set the tunable
to "1" before loading vmm.ko.
Tracing the guest exceptions can be useful when debugging guest triple faults.
Note that there is a performance impact when exception tracing is enabled
since every exception will now trigger a VM-exit.
Also, handle machine check exceptions that happen during guest execution
by vectoring to the host's machine check handler via "int $18".

This reduces variability during timer calibration by keeping the emulation
"close" to the guest. Additionally having all timer emulations in the kernel
will ease the transition to a per-VM clock source (as opposed to using the
host's uptime keep track of time).

Most I/O port handlers return -1 to signal an error. If this value is returned
without modification to vm_run() then it leads to incorrect behavior because
'-1' is interpreted as ERESTART at the system call level.
Fix this by always returning EIO to signal an error from an I/O port handler.

bhyve doesn't emulate the MSRs needed to support this feature at this time.
Don't expose any model-specific RAS and performance monitoring features in
cpuid leaf 80000007H.
Emulate a few more MSRs for AMD: TSEG base address, TSEG address mask and
BIOS signature and P-state related MSRs.
This eliminates all the unimplemented MSRs accessed by Linux/x86_64 kernels
2.6.32, 3.10.0 and 3.17.0.
Rename vmx_assym.s to vmx_assym.h to reflect that file's actual use
and update vmx_support.S's include to match. Add vmx_assym.h to the
SRCS to that it gets properly added to the dependency list. Add
vmx_support.S to SRCS as well, so it gets built and needs fewer
special-case goo. Remove now-redundant special-case goo. Finally,
vmx_genassym.o doesn't need to depend on a hand expanded ${_ILINKS}
explicitly, that's all taken care of by beforedepend.
With these items fixed, we no longer build vmm.ko every single time

the PAT MSR on guest exit/entry. This workaround was done for a beta release

- Host registers are now stored on the stack instead of a per-cpu host context.
- Host %FS and %GS selectors are not saved and restored across VMRUN.
- Restoring the %FS/%GS selectors was futile anyways since that only updates
the low 32 bits of base address in the hidden descriptor state.
- GS.base is properly updated via the MSR_GSBASE on return from svm_launch().
- FS.base is not used while inside the kernel so it can be safely ignored.
- Add function prologue/epilogue so svm_launch() can be traced with Dtrace's
FBT entry/exit probes. They also serve to save/restore the host %rbp across
VMRUN.

As of git submit e179f6914152eca9, the Linux kernel does a simple
probe of the PIC by writing a pattern to the IMR and then reading it
back, prior to the init sequence of ICW words.
The bhyve PIC emulation wasn't allowing the IMR to be read until
the ICW sequence was complete. This limitation isn't required so
relax the test.
With this change, Linux kernels 3.15-rc2 and later won't hang

too much duplicate functionality.
The VT-x code has the following types of MSRs:
- MSRs that are unconditionally saved/restored on every guest/host context
switch (e.g., MSR_GSBASE).
- MSRs that are restored to guest values on entry to vmx_run() and saved
before returning. This is an optimization for MSRs that are not used in
host kernel context (e.g., MSR_KGSBASE).
- MSRs that are emulated and every access by the guest causes a trap into
the hypervisor (e.g., MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE).

Keep track of NMI blocking by enabling the IRET intercept on a successful
vNMI injection. The NMI blocking condition is cleared when the handler
executes an IRET and traps back into the hypervisor.
Don't inject NMI if the processor is in an interrupt shadow to preserve the
atomic nature of "STI;HLT". Take advantage of this and artificially set the
interrupt shadow to prevent NMI injection when restarting the "iret".

processor. Briefly, the hypervisor sets V_INTR_VECTOR to the APIC vector
and sets V_IRQ to 1 to indicate a pending interrupt. The hardware then takes
care of injecting this vector when the guest is able to receive it.
Legacy PIC interrupts are still delivered via the event injection mechanism.
This is because the vector injected by the PIC must reflect the state of its
pins at the time the CPU is ready to accept the interrupt.
Accesses to the TPR via %CR8 are handled entirely in hardware. This requires
that the emulated TPR must be synced to V_TPR after a #VMEXIT.
The guest can also modify the TPR via the memory mapped APIC. This requires
that the V_TPR must be synced with the emulated TPR before a VMRUN.
