target-i386: fix segment limit check in ljmp
The current implementation has three bugs,
* segment limits are not enforced in protected mode if the L bit is set
in the target segment descriptor
* segment limits are not enforced in compatibility mode (ljmp to 32-bit
code segment in long mode)
* #GP(new_cs) is generated rather than #GP(0)

Now the segment limits are enforced if we're not in long mode OR the
target code segment doesn't have the L bit set.

target-i386: Fix lcall/ljmp to call gate in IA-32e mode
Currently call gates are always treated as 32-bit gates. In IA-32e mode
(either compatibility or 64-bit submode), system segment descriptors are
always 64-bit. Treating them as 32-bit has the expected unfortunate
effect: only the lower 32 bits of the offset are loaded, the stack
pointer is truncated, a bad new stack pointer is loaded from the TSS (if
switching privilege levels), etc.

This change adds support for 64-bit call gate to the lcall and ljmp
instructions. Additionally, there should be a check for non-canonical
stack pointers, but I've omitted that since there doesn't seem to be
checks for non-canonical addresses in this code elsewhere.

I've left the raise_exception_err_ra lines unwapped at 80 columns to
match the style in the rest of the file.

i386: Disable TOPOEXT by default on "-cpu host"
Enabling TOPOEXT is always allowed, but it can't be enabled
blindly by "-cpu host" because it may make guests crash if the
rest of the cache topology information isn't provided or isn't
consistent.

i386: Add new CPU model Icelake-{Server,Client}
New CPU models mostly inherit features from ancestor Skylake, while addin new
features: UMIP, New Instructions ( PCONIFIG (server only), WBNOINVD,
AVX512_VBMI2, GFNI, AVX512_VNNI, VPCLMULQDQ, VAES, AVX512_BITALG),
Intel PT and 5-level paging (Server only). As well as
IA32_PRED_CMD, SSBD support for speculative execution
side channel mitigations.

Note:
For 5-level paging, Guest physical address width can be configured, with
parameter "phys-bits". Unless explicitly specified, we still use its default
value, even for Icelake-Server cpu model.
At present, hold on expose IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES to guest, as 1) This MSR
actually presents more than 1 'feature', maintainers are considering expanding current
features presentation of only CPUIDs to MSR bits; 2) a reasonable default value
for MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES needs to settled first. These 2 are actully
beyond Icelake CPU model itself but fundamental. So split these work apart
and do it later.

target-i386: Add NPT support
This implements NPT suport for SVM by hooking into
x86_cpu_handle_mmu_fault where it reads the stage-1 page table. Whether
we need to perform this 2nd stage translation, and how, is decided
during vmrun and stored in hflags2, along with nested_cr3 and
nested_pg_mode.

As get_hphys performs a direct cpu_vmexit in case of NPT faults, we need
retaddr in that function. To avoid changing the signature of
cpu_handle_mmu_fault, this passes the value from tlb_fill to get_hphys
via the CPU state.

This was tested successfully via the Jailhouse hypervisor.

i386: Fix up the Node id for CPUID_8000_001E
This is part of topoext support. To keep the compatibility, it is better
we support all the combination of nr_cores and nr_threads currently
supported. By allowing more nr_cores and nr_threads, we might end up with
more nodes than we can actually support with the real hardware. We need to
fix up the node id to make this work. We can achieve this by shifting the
socket_id bits left to address more nodes.

i386: define the AMD 'amd-ssbd' CPUID feature bit
AMD future CPUs expose _two_ ways to utilize the Intel equivalant
of the Speculative Store Bypass Disable. The first is via
the virtualized VIRT_SPEC CTRL MSR (0xC001_011f) and the second
is via the SPEC_CTRL MSR (0x48). The document titled:
124441_AMD64_SpeculativeStoreBypassDisable_Whitepaper_final.pdf

gives priority of SPEC CTRL MSR over the VIRT SPEC CTRL MSR.

A copy of this document is available at
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=199889

Anyhow, this means that on future AMD CPUs there will be _two_ ways to
deal with SSBD.

x86/cpu: Enable CLDEMOTE(Demote Cache Line) cpu feature
The CLDEMOTE instruction hints to hardware that the cache line that
contains the linear address should be moved("demoted") from
the cache(s) closest to the processor core to a level more distant
from the processor core. This may accelerate subsequent accesses
to the line by other cores in the same coherence domain,
especially if the line was written by the core that demotes the line.

The new cpu feature needs to be exposed to guest VM.

icount: fix cpu_restore_state_from_tb for non-tb-exit cases
In icount mode, instructions that access io memory spaces in the middle
of the translation block invoke TB recompilation. After recompilation,
such instructions become last in the TB and are allowed to access io
memory spaces.

When the code includes instruction like i386 'xchg eax, 0xffffd080'
which accesses APIC, QEMU goes into an infinite loop of the recompilation.

This instruction includes two memory accesses - one read and one write.
After the first access, APIC calls cpu_report_tpr_access, which restores
the CPU state to get the current eip. But cpu_restore_state_from_tb
resets the cpu->can_do_io flag which makes the second memory access invalid.
Therefore the second memory access causes a recompilation of the block.
Then these operations repeat again and again.

This patch moves resetting cpu->can_do_io flag from
cpu_restore_state_from_tb to cpu_loop_exit* functions.

It also adds a parameter for cpu_restore_state which controls restoring
icount. There is no need to restore icount when we only query CPU state
without breaking the TB. Restoring it in such cases leads to the
incorrect flow of the virtual time.

In most cases new parameter is true (icount should be recalculated).
But there are two cases in i386 and openrisc when the CPU state is only
queried without the need to break the TB. This patch fixes both of
these cases.

In commit 7073fbada733c8d10992f00772c9b9299d740e9b, the `andn` instruction
was implemented via `tcg_gen_andc` but passes the operands in the wrong
order:
- X86 defines `andn dest,src1,src2` as: dest = ~src1 & src2
- TCG defines `andc dest,src1,src2` as: dest = src1 & ~src2

The following simple test shows the issue:

int main(void) {
uint32_t ret = 0;
__asm (
"mov $0xFF00, %%ecx\n"
"mov $0x0F0F, %%eax\n"
"andn %%ecx, %%eax, %%ecx\n"
"mov %%ecx, %0\n"
: "=r" (ret));
printf("%08X\n", ret);
return 0;
}

This patch fixes the problem by simply swapping the order of the two last
arguments in `tcg_gen_andc_tl`.

cpu: Add Error argument to cpu_exec_init()
Add an Error argument to cpu_exec_init() to let users collect the
error. This is in preparation to change the CPU enumeration logic
in cpu_exec_init(). With the new enumeration logic, cpu_exec_init()
can fail if cpu_index values corresponding to max_cpus have already
been handed out.

Since all current callers of cpu_exec_init() are from instance_init,
use error_abort Error argument to abort in case of an error.

i386: Disable Intel PT if packets IP payloads have LIP values
Intel processor trace should be disabled when
CPUID.(EAX=14H,ECX=0H).ECX.[bit31] is set.
Generated packets which contain IP payloads will have LIP
values when this bit is set, or IP payloads will have RIP
values.
Currently, The information of CPUID 14H is constant to make
live migration safty and this bit is always 0 in guest even
if host support LIP values.
Guest sees the bit is 0 will expect IP payloads with RIP
values, but the host CPU will generate IP payloads with
LIP values if this bit is set in HW.
To make sure the value of IP payloads correctly, Intel PT
should be disabled when bit[31] is set.

cpu: get rid of unused cpu_init() defines
cpu_init(cpu_model) were replaced by cpu_create(cpu_type) so
no users are left, remove it.

pc: use generic cpu_model parsing
define default CPU type in generic way in pc_machine_class_init()
and let common machine code to handle cpu_model parsing

Patch also introduces TARGET_DEFAULT_CPU_TYPE define for 2 purposes:
* make foo_machine_class_init() look uniform on every target
* use define in [bsd|linux]-user targets to pick default
cpu type

i386: keep cpu_model field in MachineState uptodate
Considering that features are converted to global properties and
global properties are automatically applied to every new instance
of created CPU (at object_new() time), there is no point in
parsing cpu_model string every time a CPU created. So move
parsing outside CPU creation loop and do it only once.

Parsing also should be done before any CPU is created so that
features would affect the first CPU a well.

cpu: Use CPUClass->parse_features() as convertor to global properties
Currently CPUClass->parse_features() is used to parse -cpu
features string and set properties on created CPU instances.

But considering that features specified by -cpu apply to every
created CPU instance, it doesn't make sense to parse the same
features string for every CPU created. It also makes every target
that cares about parsing features string explicitly call
CPUClass->parse_features() parser, which gets in a way if we
consider using generic device_add for CPU hotplug as device_add
has not a clue about CPU specific hooks.

Turns out we can use global properties mechanism to set
properties on every created CPU instance for a given type. That
way it's possible to convert CPU features into a set of global
properties for CPU type specified by -cpu cpu_model and common
Device.device_post_init() will apply them to CPU of given type
automatically regardless whether it's manually created CPU or CPU
created with help of device_add.
