Previously it is (falsely) assumed that the major_ver of 32-bit SMBIOS
entry point structure (which is called SMBIOS 2.1 in spec, or SMBIOS2 in code)
will have a value of 2 and major_ver of 64-bit SMBIOS (which is called SMBIOS
3.0 in spec, and SMBIOS3 in code) will have a value of 3. This turned out to be
wrong. This major_ver refers to the implemented doc revision, and 32-bit SMBIOS2
can have its major_ver to be 3 (current most recent implementation).
This patch removes the use of major_ver to distinguish between
SMBIOS2/3, and use a doc-defined anchor string instead.

For platforms that do not support XSAVES/XRSTORS instructions, like QEMU,
executing these instructions causes #UD.
This patch adds the check before the execution of XSAVES/XRSTORS instructions.
It also refines the logic inside rstore_xsave_area for the following reason:
If XSAVES/XRSTORS instructions are supported, restore XSAVE area if any of the
following conditions is met:
1. "vcpu->launched" is false (state initialization for guest)
2. "vcpu->arch.xsave_enabled" is true (state restoring for guest)
* Before vCPU is launched, condition 1 is satisfied.
* After vCPU is launched, condition 2 is satisfied because
is_valid_xsave_combination() guarantees that "vcpu->arch.xsave_enabled"
is consistent with pcpu_has_cap(X86_FEATURE_XSAVES).
Therefore, the check against "vcpu->launched" and "vcpu->arch.xsave_enabled"
can be eliminated here.

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.

req bit2 set

req bit0 set

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.
