In particular, initialising %dr6 with the value 0 is buggy, because on
hardware supporting Transactional Memory, it will cause the sticky RTM bit to

master date: 2018-10-24 14:43:05 +0100
XSA-273 involves one hyperthread being able to use Spectre-like
techniques to "spy" on another thread. The details are somewhat
complicated, but the upshot is that after all Xen-based mitigations
have been applied:
* PV guests cannot spy on sibling threads
* HVM guests can spy on sibling threads
(NB that for purposes of this vulnerability, PVH and HVM guests are
identical. Whenever this comment refers to 'HVM', this includes PVH.)
There are many possible mitigations to this, including disabling
hyperthreading entirely. But another solution would be:
* Specify some cores as PV-only, others as PV or HVM
* Allow HVM guests to only run on thread 0 of the "HVM-or-PV" cores
* Allow PV guests to run on the above cores, as well as any thread of the PV-only cores.
For example, suppose you had 16 threads across 8 cores (0-7). You
could specify 0-3 as PV-only, and 4-7 as HVM-or-PV. Then you'd set
the affinity of the HVM guests as follows (binary representation):
0000000010101010
And the affinity of the PV guests as follows:
1111111110101010
In order to make this easy, this patches introduces three "global affinity
masks", placed in xl.conf:
vm.cpumask
vm.hvm.cpumask
vm.pv.cpumask
These are parsed just like the 'cpus' and 'cpus_soft' options in the
per-domain xl configuration files. The resulting mask is AND-ed with
whatever mask results at the end of the xl configuration file.
`vm.cpumask` would be applied to all guest types, `vm.hvm.cpumask`
would be applied to HVM and PVH guest types, and `vm.pv.cpumask`
would be applied to PV guest types.
The idea would be that to implement the above mask across all your
VMs, you'd simply add the following two lines to the configuration
file:
vm.hvm.cpumask=8,10,12,14
vm.pv.cpumask=0-8,10,12,14
See xl.conf manpage for details.

In Store.path_write(), Path.apply_modify() updates the node_created
reference and both the value of apply_modify() and node_created are
returned by path_write().
At least with OCaml 4.06.1 this leads to the value of node_created being
returned *before* it is updated by apply_modify(). This in turn leads
to the quota for a domain not being updated in Store.write(). Hence, a
guest can create an unlimited number of entries in xenstore.

There are two bugs in process_vcpu_msrs() which clearly demonstrate that I
didn't test this bit of Migration v2 very well when writing it...
vcpu->msrsz is always expected to be a multiple of xen_domctl_vcpu_msr_t
records in a spec-compliant stream, so the modulo yields 0 for the msr_count,
rather than the actual number sent in the stream.
Passing 0 for the msr_count causes the hypercall to exit early, and hides the
fact that the guest handle is inserted into the wrong field in the domctl
union.
The reason that these bugs have gone unnoticed for so long is that the only
MSRs passed like this for PV guests are the AMD DBGEXT MSRs, which only exist
in fairly modern hardware, and whose use doesn't appear to be implemented in
any contemporary PV guests.

master date: 2017-03-15 10:57:00 +0000
Intel specifies IBRS/IBPB (combined, in a single bit) and STIBP as a separate
bit. AMD specifies IBPB alone in a 3rd bit.
AMD's IBPB is a subset of Intel's combined IBRS/IBPB. For performance
reasons, administrators might wish to express "IBPB only" even on Intel
hardware, so we allow the AMD bit to be used for this purpose.
The behaviour of STIBP is more complicated.
It is our current understanding that STIBP will be advertised on HT-capable
hardware irrespective of whether HT is enabled, but not advertised on
HT-incapable hardware. However, for ease of virtualisation, STIBP's
functionality is ignored rather than reserved by microcode/hardware on
HT-incapable hardware.
For guest safety, we treat STIBP as special, always override the toolstack
choice, and always advertise STIBP if IBRS is available. This removes the
corner case where STIBP is not advertised, but the guest is running on
HT-capable hardware where it does matter.
Finally as a bugfix, update the libxc CPUID logic to understand the e8b
feature leaf, which has the side effect of also offering CLZERO to guests on
applicable hardware.

The packet telling us to end the transaction has always carried an
argument telling us whether to commit.
If the transaction made no modifications to the tree, now we ignore
that argument and do not commit: it is just a waste of effort.
This makes read-only transactions immune to conflicts, and means that
we do not need to store any of their details in the history that is
used for assigning blame for conflicts.
We count a transaction as a read-only transaction only if it contains
no operations that modified the tree.
This means that (for example) a transaction that creates a new node
then deletes it would NOT count as read-only, even though it makes no
change overall. A more sophisticated algorithm could judge the
transaction based on comparison of its initial and final states, but
this would add complexity and computational cost.

The history of commits is to be used for working out which historical
commit(s) (including atomic writes) caused conflicts with a
currently-failing commit of a transaction. Any commit that was made
before the current transaction started cannot be relevant. Therefore
we never need to keep history from before the start of the
longest-running transaction that is open at any given time: whenever a
transaction ends (with or without a commit) then if it was the
longest-running open transaction we can delete history up until start
of the the next-longest-running open transaction.
Some transactions might stay open for a very long time, so if any
transaction exceeds conflict_max_history_seconds then we remove it
from consideration in this context, and will not guarantee to keep
remembering about historical commits made during such a transaction.
We implement this by keeping a list of all open transactions that have
not been open too long. When a transaction ends, we remove it from the
list, along with any that have been open longer than the maximum; then
we delete any history from before the start of the longest-running
transaction remaining in the list.

Checking the value of xch->xcall is clearly incorrect. The code should be
checking xch->fmem (i.e. the return of the previously called function).

(cherry picked from commit 80a7d04f53)
Specifying an empty cdrom device will result in a Xenstore entry
params = aio:(null)
as the physical device path isn't existing. This lets a domain booted
via OVMF hang as OVMF is checking for "aio:" only in order to detect
the empty cdrom case.
Use an empty string for the physical device path in this case. As a
cdrom device for HVM is always backed by qdisk we only need to cover this
backend.

When the toolstack modifies memory of a running ARM VM it may happen
that the underlying memory of a current vCPU PC is changed. Without
flushing the icache the vCPU may continue executing stale instructions.
Also expose the xc_domain_cacheflush through xenctrl.h.

The mov to/from cr/dr behave as if they were encoded with Mod = 3. When
encoded with Mod != 3, no displacement or SIB bytes are fetched.
Add a test with a deliberately malformed ModRM byte. (Also add the
automatically-generated simd.h to .gitignore.)

Commit 26dbc93a ("libxl: Remove pointless hypercall from
libxl_set_memory_target") removed the call to xc_domain_getinfolist, but
it failed to notice that "info" was actually needed later.
Put that back. While at it, make the code conform to coding style
requirement.

(cherry picked from commit ed5f19aea6)
This removes 0F C7 from the list of two-byte opcodes treating prefixes
66, F3, and F2 as opcode extensions. We better manually handle this in
the opcode specific code:
- CMPXCHG8B ignores all these prefixes (its handling is being adjusted
accordingly, with a respective test case added as well, to avoid
re-introducing the subject of XSA-200),
- RDRAND/RDSEED (support to be added subsequently) honor 66, but treat
F3 and F2 as opcode extensions (resolving to RDPID in the RDSEED
case, which in turn ignores 66).
