Per the Intel manuals, CPUID is supposed to unconditionally zero the
upper 32 bits of the involved (rax/rbx/rcx/rdx) registers.
Previously, the emulation would cast pointers to the 64-bit register
values down to `uint32_t`, which while properly manipulating the lower
bits, would leave any garbage in the upper bits uncleared. While no
existing guest OSes seem to stumble over this in practice, the bhyve
emulation should match x86 expectations.
This was discovered through alignment warnings emitted by gcc9, while
testing it against SmartOS/bhyve.

In recent Linux (5.3+) and OpenBSD (6.6+) kernels, and with hosts that
support CPUID 0x15, the local APIC frequency is determined directly
from the reported crystal clock to avoid calibration against the 8254
timer.
However, the local APIC frequency implemented by bhyve is 128MHz, where
most h/w systems report frequencies around 25MHz. This shows up on
OpenBSD guests as repeated keystrokes on the emulated PS2 keyboard
when using VNC, since the kernel's timers are now much shorter.
Fix by reporting all-zeroes for CPUID 0x15. This allows guests to fall
back to using the 8254 to calibrate the local APIC frequency.
Future work could be to compute values returned for 0x15 that would
match the host TSC and bhyve local APIC frequency, though all dependencies
on this would need to be examined (for example, Linux will start using
0x16 for some hosts).

For parity with Intel hosts, which already mask out the CPUID feature
bits that indicate the presence of the SPEC_CTRL MSR, do the same on
AMD.
Eventually we may want to have a better support story for guests, but
for now, limit the damage of incorrectly indicating an MSR we do not yet
support.
Eventually, we may want a generic CPUID override system for
administrators, or for minimum supported feature set in heterogenous
environments with failover. That is a much larger scope effort than
this bug fix.

vmm's CPUID emulation presented Intel topology information to the guest, but
disabled AMD topology information and in some cases passed through garbage.
I.e., CPUID leaves 0x8000_001[de] were passed through to the guest, but
guest CPUs can migrate between host threads, so the information presented
was not consistent. This could easily be observed with 'cpucontrol -i 0xfoo
/dev/cpuctl0'.
Slightly improve this situation by enabling the AMD topology feature flag
and presenting at least the CPUID fields used by FreeBSD itself to probe
topology on more modern AMD64 hardware (Family 15h+). Older stuff is
probably less interesting. I have not been able to empirically confirm it
is sufficient, but it should not regress anything either.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Otherwise, recent Linux guests will use these instructions, resulting
in #UD exceptions since bhyve doesn't implement MONITOR/MWAIT exits.
This fixes boot-time hangs in recent Linux guests on Ryzen CPUs
(and probably Bulldozer aka AMD FX as well).

they are enabled in the host.
- Expose a subset of known-safe features from leaf 0 of the structured

simplify the implementation of the x2APIC virtualization assist in VT-x.
Prior to this change the vlapic allowed the guest to change its mode from
xAPIC to x2APIC. We don't allow that any more and the vlapic mode is locked
when the virtual machine is created. This is not very constraining because
operating systems already have to deal with BIOS setting up the APIC in
x2APIC mode at boot.
Fix a bug in the CPUID emulation where the x2APIC capability was leaking
from the host to the guest.
Ignore MMIO reads and writes to the vlapic in x2APIC mode. Similarly, ignore
MSR accesses to the vlapic when it is in xAPIC mode.
The default configuration of the vlapic is xAPIC. The "-x" option to bhyve(8)
can be used to change the mode to x2APIC instead.

XSAVE-enabled features like AVX.
- Store a per-cpu guest xcr0 register. When switching to the guest FPU
state, switch to the guest xcr0 value. Note that the guest FPU state is
saved and restored using the host's xcr0 value and xcr0 is saved/restored
"inside" of saving/restoring the guest FPU state.
- Handle VM exits for the xsetbv instruction by updating the guest xcr0.
- Expose the XSAVE feature to the guest only if the host has enabled XSAVE,
and only advertise XSAVE features enabled by the host to the guest.
This ensures that the guest will only adjust FPU state that is a subset
of the guest FPU state saved and restored by the host.
