According to SDM Vol.3 Section 25.3, behavior of the INVPCID
instruction is determined first by the setting of the “enable
INVPCID” VM-execution control:
- If the “enable INVPCID” VM-execution control is 0, INVPCID
causes an invalid-opcode exception (#UD).
- If the “enable INVPCID” VM-execution control is 1, treatment
is based on the setting of the “INVLPG exiting” VM-execution
control:
* If the “INVLPG exiting” VM-execution control is 0, INVPCID
operates normally.
* If the “INVLPG exiting” VM-execution control is 1, INVPCID
causes a VM exit.
In current implementation, hypervisor doesn't set “INVLPG exiting”
VM-execution control, this patch sets “enable INVPCID” VM-execution
control to 1 when the instruction is supported by physical cpu.
If INVPCID is supported by physical cpu, INVPCID will not cause VM
exit in VM.
If INVPCID is not supported by physical cpu, INVPCID causes an #UD
in VM.
When INVPCID is passed-through to VM, According to SDM Vol.3 28.3.3.1,
INVPCID instruction invalidates linear mappings and combined mappings.
They are required to do so only for the current VPID.
HV assigned a unique vpid for each vCPU, if guest uses wrong PCID,
it would not affect other vCPUs.

ACRN Hypervisor ############### The open source `Project ACRN`_ defines a device hypervisor reference stack and an architecture for running multiple software subsystems, managed securely, on a consolidated system by means of a virtual machine manager. It also defines a reference framework implementation for virtual device emulation, called the "ACRN Device Model". The ACRN Hypervisor is a Type 1 reference hypervisor stack, running directly on the bare-metal hardware, and is suitable for a variety of IoT and embedded device solutions. The ACRN hypervisor addresses the gap that currently exists between datacenter hypervisors, and hard partitioning hypervisors. The ACRN hypervisor architecture partitions the system into different functional domains, with carefully selected guest OS sharing optimizations for IoT and embedded devices. You can find out more about Project ACRN on the `Project ACRN documentation`_ website. .. _`Project ACRN`: https://projectacrn.org .. _`ACRN Hypervisor`: https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor .. _`Project ACRN documentation`: https://projectacrn.github.io/
