Previously, many errors (such as the PCI device not being attached
to the ppt(4) driver) resulted in bhyve silently exiting without
starting the virtual machine. Now any errors encountered when
configuring a virtual slot for a PCI passthru device should be noted
on stderr.

If the PBA shares a page with the MSI-X table, map the shared page via
/dev/mem and emulate accesses to the portion of the PBA in the shared
page by accessing the mapped page.

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).

into the MSI-X table before using it to calculate the table index.
In the common case where the MSI-X table is located at the begining of the
BAR these two offsets are identical and thus the code was working by accident.
This change will fix the case where the MSI-X table is located in the middle
or at the end of the BAR that contains it.

can only be located at the beginning or the end of the BAR.
If the MSI-table is located in the middle of a BAR then we will split the
BAR into two and create two mappings - one before the table and one after
the table - leaving a hole in place of the table so accesses to it can be
trapped and emulated.

devices are MSI-X capable. This in turn would lead it to treat bar 0 as
the MSI-X table bar even if the underlying device did not support MSI-X.
Fix this by providing an API to query the MSI-X table index of the emulated
device. If the underlying device does not support MSI-X then this API will
return -1.

the maximum of 2048 allowed by the PCI specification.
Reuse macros from pcireg.h to interpret the MSI-X capability instead of rolling
our own.

On a nested page table fault the hypervisor will:
- fetch the instruction using the guest %rip and %cr3
- decode the instruction in 'struct vie'
- emulate the instruction in host kernel context for local apic accesses
- any other type of mmio access is punted up to user-space (e.g. ioapic)
The decoded instruction is passed as collateral to the user-space process
that is handling the PAGING exit.
The emulation code is fleshed out to include more addressing modes (e.g. SIB)
and more types of operands (e.g. imm8). The source code is unified into a
single file (vmm_instruction_emul.c) that is compiled into vmm.ko as well
as /usr/sbin/bhyve.
