For tools that uses bhyve such like libvirt, it is important to be able to
probe what features are supported by the given bhyve binary.
To give more context, libvirt probes bhyve's capabilities in a not very
effective way:
- Running 'bhyve -h' and parsing output.
- To detect devices, it runs 'bhyve -s 0,dev' for every each device and
parses error output to identify if the device is supported or not.

The bhyve(8) exit status indicates how the VM was terminated:
0 rebooted
1 powered off
2 halted
3 triple fault
The problem is when we have wrappers around bhyve that parses the exit
error code and gets an exit(1) for an error but interprets it as "powered off".
So to mitigate this issue and makes it less error prone for third part
applications, I have added a new exit code 4 that is "exited due to an error".
For now the bhyve(8) exit status are:
0 rebooted
1 powered off
2 halted

This commit adds a new debug server to bhyve. Unlike the existing -g
option which provides an efficient connection to a debug server
running in the guest OS, this debug server permits inspection and
control of the guest from within the hypervisor itself without
requiring any cooperation from the guest. It is similar to the debug
server provided by qemu.
To avoid conflicting with the existing -g option, a new -G option has
been added that accepts a TCP port. An IPv4 socket is bound to this
port and listens for connections from debuggers. In addition, if the
port begins with the character 'w', the hypervisor will pause the
guest at the first instruction until a debugger attaches and
explicitly continues the guest. Note that only a single debugger can
attach to a guest at a time.
Virtual CPUs are exposed to the remote debugger as threads. General
purpose register values can be read for each virtual CPU. Other
registers cannot currently be read, and no register values can be
changed by the debugger.
The remote debugger can read guest memory but not write to guest
memory. To facilitate source-level debugging of the guest, memory
addresses from the debugger are treated as virtual addresses (rather
than physical addresses) and are resolved to a physical address using
the active virtual address translation of the current virtual CPU.
Memory reads should honor memory mapped I/O regions, though the debug
server does not attempt to honor any alignment or size constraints
when accessing MMIO.
The debug server provides limited support for controlling the guest.
The guest is suspended when a debugger is attached and resumes when a
debugger detaches. A debugger can suspend a guest by sending a Ctrl-C
request (e.g. via Ctrl-C in GDB). A debugger can also continue a
suspended guest while remaining attached. Breakpoints are not yet
supported. Single stepping is supported on Intel CPUs that support
MTRAP VM exits, but is not available on other systems.
While the current debug server has limited functionality, it should
at least be usable for basic debugging now. It is also a useful
checkpoint to serve as a base for adding additional features.

Initial bhyve native graphics support.
This adds emulations for a raw framebuffer device, PS2 keyboard/mouse,
XHCI USB controller and a USB tablet.
A simple VNC server is provided for keyboard/mouse input, and graphics
output.
A VGA emulation is included, but is currently disconnected until an
additional bhyve change to block out VGA memory is committed.

devmem is used to represent MMIO devices like the boot ROM or a VESA framebuffer
where doing a trap-and-emulate for every access is impractical. devmem is a
hybrid of system memory (sysmem) and emulated device models.
devmem is mapped in the guest address space via nested page tables similar
to sysmem. However the address range where devmem is mapped may be changed
by the guest at runtime (e.g. by reprogramming a PCI BAR). Also devmem is
usually mapped RO or RW as compared to RWX mappings for sysmem.
Each devmem segment is named (e.g. "bootrom") and this name is used to
create a device node for the devmem segment (e.g. /dev/vmm/testvm.bootrom).
The device node supports mmap(2) and this decouples the host mapping of
devmem from its mapping in the guest address space (which can change).

Keep track of the next instruction to be executed by the vcpu as 'nextrip'.
As a result the VM_RUN ioctl no longer takes the %rip where a vcpu should
start execution.
Also, instruction restart happens implicitly via 'vm_inject_exception()' or
explicitly via 'vm_restart_instruction()'. The APIs behave identically in
both kernel and userspace contexts. The main beneficiary is the instruction
emulation code that executes in both contexts.
bhyve(8) VM exit handlers now treat 'vmexit->rip' and 'vmexit->inst_length'
as readonly:
- Restarting an instruction is now done by calling 'vm_restart_instruction()'
as opposed to setting 'vmexit->inst_length' to 0 (e.g. emulate_inout())
- Resuming vcpu at an arbitrary %rip is now done by setting VM_REG_GUEST_RIP

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).

The faulting instruction needs to be restarted when the exception handler
is done handling the fault. bhyve now does this correctly by setting
'vmexit[vcpu].inst_length' to zero so the %rip is not advanced.
A minor complication is that the fault injection APIs are used by instruction
emulation code that is shared by vmm.ko and bhyve. Thus the argument that
refers to 'struct vm *' in kernel or 'struct vmctx *' in userspace needs to
be loosely typed as a 'void *'.
A nested exception condition arises when a second exception is triggered while
delivering the first exception. Most nested exceptions can be handled serially
but some are converted into a double fault. If an exception is generated during
delivery of a double fault then the virtual machine shuts down as a result of
a triple fault.
vm_exit_intinfo() is used to record that a VM-exit happened while an event was
being delivered through the IDT. If an exception is triggered while handling
the VM-exit it will be treated like a nested exception.
vm_entry_intinfo() is used by processor-specific code to get the event to be
injected into the guest on the next VM-entry. This function is responsible for
deciding the disposition of nested exceptions.
