x86/fpu: Provide fpu_sync_guest_vmexit_xfd_state()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
KVM can disable the write emulation for the XFD MSR when the vCPU's fpstate
is already correctly sized to reduce the overhead.

When write emulation is disabled the XFD MSR state after a VMEXIT is
unknown and therefore not in sync with the software states in fpstate and
the per CPU XFD cache.

Provide fpu_sync_guest_vmexit_xfd_state() which has to be invoked after a
VMEXIT before enabling interrupts when write emulation is disabled for the
XFD MSR.

It could be invoked unconditionally even when write emulation is enabled
for the price of a pointless MSR read.

*
* Must be invoked from KVM after a VMEXIT before enabling interrupts when
* XFD write emulation is disabled. This is required because the guest can
* freely modify XFD and the state at VMEXIT is not guaranteed to be the
* same as the state on VMENTER. So software state has to be udpated before
* any operation which depends on it can take place.

* Note: It can be invoked unconditionally even when write emulation is
* enabled for the price of a then pointless MSR read.
