Vitaly Kuznetsov 31de3d2500 x86/kvm/hyper-v: move VMX controls sanitization out of nested_enable_evmcs()
With fine grained VMX feature enablement QEMU>=4.2 tries to do KVM_SET_MSRS
with default (matching CPU model) values and in case eVMCS is also enabled,
fails.

It would be possible to drop VMX feature filtering completely and make
this a guest's responsibility: if it decides to use eVMCS it should know
which fields are available and which are not. Hyper-V mostly complies to
this, however, there are some problematic controls:
SECONDARY_EXEC_VIRTUALIZE_APIC_ACCESSES
VM_{ENTRY,EXIT}_LOAD_IA32_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL

which Hyper-V enables. As there are no corresponding fields in eVMCS, we
can't handle this properly in KVM. This is a Hyper-V issue.

Move VMX controls sanitization from nested_enable_evmcs() to vmx_get_msr(),
and do the bare minimum (only clear controls which are known to cause issues).
This allows userspace to keep setting controls it wants and at the same
time hides them from the guest.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
