When KVM_EXIT_SYSTEM_EVENT was introduced, it included a flags
member that at the time was unused. Unfortunately this extensibility
mechanism has several issues:
- x86 is not writing the member, so it would not be possible to use it
on x86 except for new events
- the member is not aligned to 64 bits, so the definition of the
uAPI struct is incorrect for 32- on 64-bit userspace. This is a
problem for RISC-V, which supports CONFIG_KVM_COMPAT, but fortunately
usage of flags was only introduced in 5.18.
Since padding has to be introduced, place a new field in there
that tells if the flags field is valid. To allow further extensibility,
in fact, change flags to an array of 16 values, and store how many
of the values are valid. The availability of the new ndata field
is tied to a system capability; all architectures are changed to
fill in the field.
To avoid breaking compilation of userspace that was using the flags
field, provide a userspace-only union to overlap flags with data[0].
The new field is placed at the same offset for both 32- and 64-bit
userspace.

accesses. Document the limitation.

It isn't OK to cache the dirty status of a page in internal structures
for an indefinite period of time.
Any time a vCPU exits the run loop to userspace might be its last; the
VMM might do its final check of the dirty log, flush the last remaining
dirty pages to the destination and complete a live migration. If we
have internal 'dirty' state which doesn't get flushed until the vCPU
is finally destroyed on the source after migration is complete, then
we have lost data because that will escape the final copy.
This problem already exists with the use of kvm_vcpu_unmap() to mark
pages dirty in e.g. VMX nesting.
Note that the actual Linux MM already considers the page to be dirty
since we have a writeable mapping of it. This is just about the KVM
dirty logging.
For the nesting-style use cases (KVM_GUEST_USES_PFN) we will need to
track which gfn_to_pfn_caches have been used and explicitly mark the
corresponding pages dirty before returning to userspace. But we would
have needed external tracking of that anyway, rather than walking the
full list of GPCs to find those belonging to this vCPU which are dirty.
So let's rely *solely* on that external tracking, and keep it simple
rather than laying a tempting trap for callers to fall into.

Don't actually set a request bit in vcpu->requests when making a request
purely to force a vCPU to exit the guest. Logging a request but not
actually consuming it would cause the vCPU to get stuck in an infinite
loop during KVM_RUN because KVM would see the pending request and bail
from VM-Enter to service the request.
Note, it's currently impossible for KVM to set KVM_REQ_GPC_INVALIDATE as
nothing in KVM is wired up to set guest_uses_pa=true. But, it'd be all
too easy for arch code to introduce use of kvm_gfn_to_pfn_cache_init()
without implementing handling of the request, especially since getting
test coverage of MMU notifier interaction with specific KVM features
usually requires a directed test.
Opportunistically rename gfn_to_pfn_cache_invalidate_start()'s wake_vcpus
to evict_vcpus. The purpose of the request is to get vCPUs out of guest
mode, it's supposed to _avoid_ waking vCPUs that are blocking.
Opportunistically rename KVM_REQ_GPC_INVALIDATE to be more specific as to
what it wants to accomplish, and to genericize the name so that it can
used for similar but unrelated scenarios, should they arise in the future.
Add a comment and documentation to explain why the "no action" request
exists.
Add compile-time assertions to help detect improper usage. Use the inner
assertless helper in the one s390 path that makes requests without a
hardcoded request.

KiB SPTEs.
- Zap invalid and defunct roots asynchronously via
concurrency-managed work queue.
- Allowing yielding when zapping TDP MMU roots in response to the
root's last reference being put.
- Batch more TLB flushes with an RCU trick. Whoever frees the
paging structure now holds RCU as a proxy for all vCPUs running
in the guest, i.e. to prolongs the grace period on their behalf.
It then kicks the the vCPUs out of guest mode before doing
rcu_read_unlock().

KVM_CAP_DISABLE_QUIRKS is irrevocably broken. The capability does not
advertise the set of quirks which may be disabled to userspace, so it is
impossible to predict the behavior of KVM. Worse yet,
KVM_CAP_DISABLE_QUIRKS will tolerate any value for cap->args[0], meaning
it fails to reject attempts to set invalid quirk bits.
The only valid workaround for the quirky quirks API is to add a new CAP.
Actually advertise the set of quirks that can be disabled to userspace
so it can predict KVM's behavior. Reject values for cap->args[0] that
contain invalid bits.
Finally, add documentation for the new capability and describe the
existing quirks.

KVM support for 32-bit ARM hosts (KVM/arm) has been removed from the
kernel since commit 541ad0150c ("arm: Remove 32bit KVM host
support"). There still exists some remnants of the old architecture in
the KVM documentation.
Remove all traces of 32-bit host support from the documentation. Note
that AArch32 guests are still supported.
