SKZ63 Processor May Hang When Executing Code In an HLE Transaction
Region
Problem: Under certain conditions, if the processor acquires an HLE
(Hardware Lock Elision) lock via the XACQUIRE instruction in the Host
Physical Address range between 40000000H and 403FFFFFH, it may hang
with an internal timeout error (MCACOD 0400H) logged into
IA32_MCi_STATUS.
Move the pages from the range into the blacklist. Add a tunable to
not waste 4M if local DoS is not the issue.

This is used as part of implementing run control in bhyve's debug
server. The hypervisor now maintains a set of "debugged" CPUs.
Attempting to run a debugged CPU will fail to execute any guest
instructions and will instead report a VM_EXITCODE_DEBUG exit to
the userland hypervisor. Virtual CPUs are placed into the debugged
state via vm_suspend_cpu() (implemented via a new VM_SUSPEND_CPU ioctl).
Virtual CPUs can be resumed via vm_resume_cpu() (VM_RESUME_CPU ioctl).
The debug server suspends virtual CPUs when it wishes them to stop
executing in the guest (for example, when a debugger attaches to the
server). The debug server can choose to resume only a subset of CPUs
(for example, when single stepping) or it can choose to resume all
CPUs. The debug server must explicitly mark a CPU as resumed via
vm_resume_cpu() before the virtual CPU will successfully execute any
guest instructions.

On a sample machine, this translated to patting the watchdog approximately

Current code, which copies the potential syscall arguments into the
current frame, puts an arbitrary limit on the number of syscall
arguments. Apparently, mmap(2) and lseek(2) (?) require larger
number. But there is an issue that stack is only need to be mapped to
contain the number of arguments required by the syscall, so copying
arbitrary large number of words from the stack is not completely safe.
Use different approach to convert lcall frame into int $0x80 frame in
place, by doing the retl in kernel. This also allows to stop proceed
vfork case specially, and stop making assumptions about %cs at the
syscall time.

There are several components to this change:
* Add a variable to indicate the start of the R/W portion of the
initial memory.
* Stop detecting NX bit support for each AP. Instead, use the value
from the BSP and, if supported, activate the feature on the other
APs just before loading the correct page table. (Functionally, we
already assume that the BSP and all APs had the same support or
lack of support for the NX bit.)
* Set the RW and NX bits correctly for the kernel text, data, and
BSS (subject to some caveats below).
* Ensure DDB can write to memory when necessary (such as to set a
breakpoint).
* Ensure GDB can write to memory when necessary (such as to set a
breakpoint). For this purpose, add new MD functions gdb_begin_write()
and gdb_end_write() which the GDB support code can call before and
after writing to memory.
This change is not comprehensive:
* It doesn't do anything to protect modules.
* It doesn't do anything for kernel memory allocated after the kernel
starts running.
* In order to avoid excessive memory inefficiency, it may let multiple
types of data share a 2M page, and assigns the most permissions
needed for data on that page.

implements two SMBus controllers (iMC-SMBs).
*** IMPORTANT NOTE ***
Because motherboard firmware or the BMC might try to use the iMC-SMBs for
monitoring DIMM temperatures and/or managing an NVDIMM, the driver might
need to temporarily disable those functions, or take a hardware interlock,
before using the iMC-SMBs. Details on how to do this may vary from board to
board, and the procedure may be proprietary. It is strongly suggested that
anyone wishing to use this driver contact their motherboard vendor, and
modify the driver as described in the manual page and in the driver itself.
