Add virtualized XSAVE support to bhyve which permits guests to use XSAVE and XSAVE-enabled features like AVX. - Store a per-cpu guest xcr0 register and handle xsetbv VM exits by emulating the instruction. - Only expose XSAVE to guests if XSAVE is enabled in the host. Only expose a subset of XSAVE features currently supported by the guest and for which the proper emulation of xsetbv is known. Currently this includes X87, SSE, AVX, AVX-512, and Intel MPX. - Add support for injecting hardware exceptions into the guest and use this to trigger exceptions in the guest for invalid xsetbv operations instead of potentially faulting in the host. - Queue pending exceptions in the 'struct vcpu' instead of directly updating the processor-specific VMCS or VMCB. The pending exception will be delivered right before entering the guest. - Rename the unused ioctl VM_INJECT_EVENT to VM_INJECT_EXCEPTION and restrict it to only deliver x86 hardware exceptions. This new ioctl is now used to inject a protection fault when the guest accesses an unimplemented MSR. - Expose a subset of known-safe features from leaf 0 of the structured extended features to guests if they are supported on the host including RDFSBASE/RDGSBASE, BMI1/2, AVX2, AVX-512, HLE, ERMS, and RTM. Aside from AVX-512, these features are all new instructions available for use in ring 3 with no additional hypervisor changes needed. |
