Add XEN_SYSCTL_PHYSCAP_X86_ASSISTED_XAPIC and
XEN_SYSCTL_PHYSCAP_X86_ASSISTED_X2APIC to report accelerated xAPIC and
x2APIC, on x86 hardware. This is so that xAPIC and x2APIC virtualization
can subsequently be enabled on a per-domain basis.
No such features are currently implemented on AMD hardware.
HW assisted xAPIC virtualization will be reported if HW, at the
minimum, supports virtualize_apic_accesses as this feature alone means
that an access to the APIC page will cause an APIC-access VM exit. An
APIC-access VM exit provides a VMM with information about the access
causing the VM exit, unlike a regular EPT fault, thus simplifying some
internal handling.
HW assisted x2APIC virtualization will be reported if HW supports
virtualize_x2apic_mode and, at least, either apic_reg_virt or
virtual_intr_delivery. This also means that
sysctl follows the conditionals in vmx_vlapic_msr_changed().
For that purpose, also add an arch-specific "capabilities" parameter
to struct xen_sysctl_physinfo.
Note that this interface is intended to be compatible with AMD so that
AVIC support can be introduced in a future patch. Unlike Intel that
has multiple controls for APIC Virtualization, AMD has one global
'AVIC Enable' control bit, so fine-graining of APIC virtualization
control cannot be done on a common interface.

Add monitor event that hooks the vmexit handler allowing for both sync and
async monitoring of events. With async monitoring an event is placed on the
monitor ring for each exit and the rest of the vmexit handler resumes normally.
If there are additional monitor events configured those will also place their
respective events on the monitor ring.
With the sync version an event is placed on the monitor ring but the handler
does not get resumed, thus the sync version is only useful when the VM is not
expected to resume normally after the vmexit. Our use-case is primarily with
the sync version with VM forks where the fork gets reset after sync vmexit
event, thus the rest of the vmexit handler can be safely skipped. This is
very useful when we want to avoid Xen crashing the VM under any circumstance,
for example during fuzzing. Collecting all vmexit information regardless of
the root cause makes it easier to reason about the state of the VM on the
monitor side, hence we opt to receive all events, even for external interrupt
and NMI exits and let the monitor agent decide how to proceed.

Ideally we should rework the scripts so we don't have to update

to spend on the issue. So chose the simple solution and update
the size accordingly.
Note that we need to keep vcpu_guest_core_regs around because

Introduce an option to allow selecting a behavior similar to the pre
Xen 4.15 one for accesses to MSRs not explicitly handled. Since commit
84e848fd7a and 322ec7c89f accesses to MSRs not explicitly
handled by Xen result in the injection of a #GP to the guest. This
is a behavior change since previously a #GP was only injected if
accessing the MSR on the real hardware would also trigger a #GP, or if
the attempted to be set bits wouldn't match the hardware values (for
PV). The reasons for not leaking hardware MSR values and injecting a
#GP are fully valid, so the solution proposed here should be
considered a temporary workaround until all the required MSRs are
properly handled.
This seems to be problematic for some guests, so introduce an option
to fallback to this kind of legacy behavior without leaking the
underlying MSR values to the guest.
When the option is set, for both PV and HVM don't inject a #GP to the
guest on MSR read if reading the underlying MSR doesn't result in a
#GP, do the same for writes and simply discard the value to be written
on that case.
Note that for guests restored or migrated from previous Xen versions
the option is enabled by default, in order to keep a compatible
MSR behavior. Such compatibility is done at the libxl layer, to avoid
higher-level toolstacks from having to know the details about this flag.

For 4.15. This was a surprise discovery in the massive ABI untangling effort
I'm currently doing for XenServer's new build system.
This is one new read-only op to obtain information which isn't otherwise
available under a stable API/ABI. As such, its risk for 4.15 is very low,
with a very real quality-of-life improvement for downstreams.
I realise this is technically a new feature and we're long past feature
freeze, but I'm hoping that "really lets some emulators move off the unstable
libraries" is sufficiently convincing argument.
It's not sufficient to let Qemu move off unstable libraries yet - at a
minimum, the add_to_phymap hypercalls need stabilising to support PCI
Passthrough and BAR remapping.
I'd prefer not to duplicate the op handling between ARM and x86, and if this
weren't a release window, I'd submit a prereq patch to dedup the common dmop
handling. That can wait to 4.16 at this point. Also, this op ought to work
against x86 PV guests, but fixing that up will also need this rearrangement
into common code, so needs to wait.
Various version of gcc, when compiling with -Og, complain:
xg_dom_arm.c: In function 'meminit':
xg_dom_arm.c:420:19: error: 'p2m_size' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
420 | dom->p2m_size = p2m_size;
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~
This is actually entirely stale code since ee21f10d70^..97e34ad22d which
removed the 1:1 identity p2m for translated domains.
Drop the write of d->p2m_size, and the p2m_size local variable. Reposition
the p2m_size field in struct xc_dom_image and correct some stale
documentation.
This change really ought to have been part of the original cleanup series.
No actual change to how ARM domains are constructed.

We're about to introduce support for Intel Processor Trace, but similar
functionality exists in other platforms.
Aspects of vmtrace can reasonably can be common, so start with
XEN_SYSCTL_PHYSCAP_vmtrace and plumb the signal from Xen all the way down into
`xl info`.
