It is used to specify the maximum number of EFI memmap entries.
On some platforms, like Tiger Lake, the number of EFI memmap entries
becomes 268 when the BIOS settings are changed.
The current value of MAX_EFI_MMAP_ENTRIES (256) defined in hypervisor
is not big enough to cover such cases.
As the number of EFI memmap entries depends on the platforms and the
BIOS settings, this patch introduces a new entry MAX_EFI_MMAP_ENTRIES
in configurations so that it can be adjusted for different cases.

If SOS is using kernel 5.4, hypervisor got panic with #GP.
Here is an example on KBL showing how the panic occurs when kernel 5.4 is used:
Notes:
* Physical MSR_IA32_XSS[bit 8] is 1 when physical CPU boots up.
* vcpu_get_guest_msr(vcpu, MSR_IA32_XSS)[bit 8] is initialized to 0.
Following thread switches would happen at run time:
1. idle thread -> vcpu thread
context_switch_in happens and rstore_xsave_area is called.
At this moment, vcpu->arch.xsave_enabled is false as vcpu is not launched yet
and init_vmcs is not called yet (where xsave_enabled is set to true).
Thus, physical MSR_IA32_XSS is not updated with the value of guest MSR_IA32_XSS.
States at this point:
* Physical MSR_IA32_XSS[bit 8] is 1.
* vcpu_get_guest_msr(vcpu, MSR_IA32_XSS)[bit 8] is 0.
2. vcpu thread -> idle thread
context_switch_out happens and save_xsave_area is called.
At this moment, vcpu->arch.xsave_enabled is true. Processor state is saved
to memory with XSAVES instruction. As physical MSR_IA32_XSS[bit 8] is 1,
ectx->xs_area.xsave_hdr.hdr.xcomp_bv[bit 8] is set to 1 after the execution
of XSAVES instruction.
States at this point:
* Physical MSR_IA32_XSS[bit 8] is 1.
* vcpu_get_guest_msr(vcpu, MSR_IA32_XSS)[bit 8] is 0.
* ectx->xs_area.xsave_hdr.hdr.xcomp_bv[bit 8] is 1.
3. idle thread -> vcpu thread
context_switch_in happens and rstore_xsave_area is called.
At this moment, vcpu->arch.xsave_enabled is true. Physical MSR_IA32_XSS is
updated with the value of guest MSR_IA32_XSS, which is 0.
States at this point:
* Physical MSR_IA32_XSS[bit 8] is 0.
* vcpu_get_guest_msr(vcpu, MSR_IA32_XSS)[bit 8] is 0.
* ectx->xs_area.xsave_hdr.hdr.xcomp_bv[bit 8] is 1.
Processor state is restored from memory with XRSTORS instruction afterwards.
According to SDM Vol1 13.12 OPERATION OF XRSTORS, a #GP occurs if XCOMP_BV
sets a bit in the range 62:0 that is not set in XCR0 | IA32_XSS.
So, #GP occurs once XRSTORS instruction is executed.
Such issue does not happen with kernel 5.10. Because kernel 5.10 writes to
MSR_IA32_XSS during initialization, while kernel 5.4 does not do such write.
Once guest writes to MSR_IA32_XSS, it would be trapped to hypervisor, then,
physical MSR_IA32_XSS and the value of MSR_IA32_XSS in vcpu->arch.guest_msrs
are updated with the value specified by guest. So, in the point 2 above,
correct processor state is saved. And #GP would not happen in the point 3.
This patch initializes the XSAVE related processor state for guest.
If vcpu is not launched yet, the processor state is initialized according to
the initial value of vcpu_get_guest_msr(vcpu, MSR_IA32_XSS), ectx->xcr0,
and ectx->xs_area. With this approach, the physical processor state is
consistent with the one presented to guest.

Currently the sched event handling may encounter data race problem, and
as a result some vcpus might be stalled forever.
One example can be wbinvd handling where more than 1 vcpus are doing
wbinvd concurrently. The following is a possible execution of 3 vcpus:
-------
0 1 2
req [Note: 0]
req bit0 set [Note: 1]
IPI -> 0
req bit2 set
IPI -> 2
VMExit
req bit2 cleared
wait
vcpu2 descheduled
VMExit
req bit0 cleared
wait
vcpu0 descheduled
signal 0
event0->set=true
wake 0
signal 2
event2->set=true [Note: 3]
wake 2
vcpu2 scheduled
event2->set=false
resume
req
req bit0 set
IPI -> 0
req bit1 set
IPI -> 1
(doesn't matter)
vcpu0 scheduled [Note: 4]
signal 0
event0->set=true
(no wake) [Note: 2]
event0->set=false (the rest doesn't matter)
resume
Any VMExit
req bit0 cleared
wait
idle running
(blocked forever)
Notes:
0: req: vcpu_make_request(vcpu, ACRN_REQUEST_WAIT_WBINVD).
1: req bit: Bit in pending_req_bits. Bit0 stands for bit for vcpu0.
2: In function signal_event, At this time the event->waiting_thread
is not NULL, so wake_thread will not execute
3: eventX: struct sched_event of vcpuX.
4: In function wait_event, the lock does not strictly cover the execution between
schedule() and event->set=false, so other threads may kick in.
-----
As shown in above example, before the last random VMExit, vcpu0 ended up
with request bit set but event->set==false, so blocked forever.
This patch proposes to change event->set from a boolean variable to an
integer. The semantic is very similar to a semaphore. The wait_event
will add 1 to this value, and block when this value is > 0, whereas signal_event
will decrease this value by 1.
It may happen that this value was decreased to a negative number but that
is OK. As long as the wait_event and signal_event are paired and
program order is observed (that is, wait_event always happens-before signal_event
on a single vcpu), this value will eventually be 0.

This is a simply implement for the 32bit and 64bit elf loader.
The loading function first reads the image header, and finds the program
entries that are marked as PT_LOAD, then loads segments from elf file to
guest ram. After that, it finds the bss section in the elf section entries, and
clear the ram area it points to.
Limitations:
1. The e_type of the elf image must be ET_EXEC(executable). Relocatable or
dynamic code is not supported.
2. The loader only copies program segments that has a p_type of
PT_LOAD(loadable segment). Other segments are ignored.
3. The loader doesn’t support Sections that are relocatable
(sh_type is SHT_REL or SHT_RELA)
4. The 64bit elf’s entry address must below 4G.
5. The elf is assumed to be able to put segments to valid guest memory.

There could be multiple ways in the scenario configuration to specify that
no INTx allocation is explicitly allocation to a prelaunched VM:
* Do not have a `pt_intx` node at all.
* Have a `pt_intx` node with no text.
* Have a `pt_intx` node with a text that has nothing but whitespaces,
tabs and newlines.
The current implementation only supports the first way, and will cause
build-time failures when a scenario configuration uses the latter two. The
following changes are introduced by this patch to fix such errors.
* The INTx static allocator queries the text() of `pt_intx` nodes
directly to gracefully handle `pt_intx` nodes with no text.
* The XSLT of pt_intx.c clears all kinds of white spaces from the text of
`pt_intx` nodes before calculating the set of allocated INTx mappings.
