PKU is supported in Skylake Server (Only Server) and later, and
on Intel(R) Xeon(R) Processor Scalable Family. So PKU is supposed
to be in Skylake-Server CPU model. And PKU's CPUID has been
exposed to QEMU. But PKU can't be find in Skylake-Server CPU
model in the code. So this patch will fix this issue in
Skylake-Server CPU model.
Backports commit 09b9ee643f90ef95e30e594df2a3c83ccaf75b1f from qemu
New CPU models mostly inherit features from ancestor Skylake-Server,
while addin new features: AVX512_VNNI, Intel PT.
SSBD support for speculative execution
side channel mitigations.
Note:
On Cascadelake, some capabilities (RDCL_NO, IBRS_ALL, RSBA,
SKIP_L1DFL_VMENTRY and SSB_NO) are enumerated by MSR.
These features rely on MSR based feature support patch.
Will be added later after that patch's in.

Backports commit c7a88b52f62b30c04158eeb07f73e3f72221b6a8 from qemu
Note RSBA is specially treated -- no matter host support it or not, qemu
pretends it is supported.
Backports commit d86f963694df27f11b3681ffd225c9362de1b634 from qemu
Intel SDM says for CPUID function 0DH, sub-function 0:
| • ECX enumerates the size (in bytes) required by the XSAVE instruction for an
| XSAVE area containing all the user state components supported by this
| processor.
| • EBX enumerates the size (in bytes) required by the XSAVE instruction for an
| XSAVE area containing all the user state components corresponding to bits
| currently set in XCR0.
Backports commit de2e68c902f7b6e438b0fa3cfedd74a06a20704f from qemu
This patch fixes the checking of boundary crossing instructions.
In icount mode only first instruction of the block may cross
the page boundary to keep the translation deterministic.
These conditions already existed, but compared the wrong variable.
Backports commit 41d54dc09f1f327dedc79d5ba0b1b437ab7b0e94 from qemu
This flag will be used for KVM's nested VMX migration; the HF_GUEST_MASK name
is already used in KVM, adopt it in QEMU as well.
Backports commit f8dc4c645ec2956a6cd97e0ca0fdd4753181f735 from qemu
Interrupt handling depends on various flags in env->hflags or env->hflags2,
and the exact detail were not exactly replicated between x86_cpu_has_work
and x86_cpu_exec_interrupt. Create a new function that extracts the
highest-priority non-masked interrupt, and use it in both functions.
Backports commit 92d5f1a4147c3722b5e9a8bcfb7dc261b7a8b855 from qemu
This was intentionally broken to make updating qemu as quick as possible
when it was woefully out of date, particularly because the interface of
qemu's TCG changed quite a bit, so this code would have needed to be
changed anyways.
Now that qemu is up to date for this variant of Unicorn, we can repair
this functionality and also--and I put massive emphasis on this, since
this wasn't done in the original Unicorn repo--*actually document what
the heck we're doing in this case*, so it's not a pain to change in the
future if we actually need to do that. It makes it much, much, simpler
for people not involved with qemu to understand what is going on in this
case.
These used to be necessary, as the relevant variables used to be void*,
thus making the casts necessary. Given they were changed to concrete
types over the course of backporting, these are unnecessary.
Adds SYSENTER to the whitelist of supported hookable instructions in unicorn
as well as fixes up the existing sysenter_hook_x86 regression test which was
previously failing

Backports commit 0f14c473445661a633ca5bda3a91ba1a87c35c64 from unicorn
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.
Backports commit db7196db5d5d932f388643baae6835f8dcda6921 from qemu
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.
Backports commit 0aca060526d3ff9632aaed66e8611814580c13de from qemu
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.
This addresses the bug reported at:

Backports commit 7210a02c58572b2686a3a8d610c6628f87864aed from qemu
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.

Backports commit 8a11c62da9146dd89aee98947e6bd831e65a970d from qemu
WBNOINVD: Write back and do not invalidate cache, enumerated by
CPUID.(EAX=80000008H, ECX=0):EBX[bit 9].
Backports commit 59a80a19ca31a6fff9fdbb6b4cf55a5a0767c3bc from qemu
Support of IA32_PRED_CMD MSR already be enumerated by same CPUID bit as
SPEC_CTRL.
At present, mark CPUID_7_0_EDX_ARCH_CAPABILITIES unmigratable, per Paolo's
comment.
Backports commit 3fc7c73139d2d38ae80c3b0bc963b1ac1555924c from qemu
IA32_PRED_CMD MSR gives software a way to issue commands that affect the state
of indirect branch predictors. Enumerated by CPUID.(EAX=7H,ECX=0):EDX[26].
IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES MSR enumerates architectural features of RDCL_NO and
IBRS_ALL. Enumerated by CPUID.(EAX=07H, ECX=0):EDX[29].

Backports commit 8c80c99fcceabd0708a5a83f08577e778c9419f5 from qemu
MSR_SMI_COUNT started being migrated in QEMU 2.12. Do not migrate it
on older machine types, or the subsection causes a load failure for
guests that use SMM.
Backports part of commit 990e0be2603511560168e1ad61f68294d951c39e from
qemu
Rename DCACHE to DATA_CACHE and ICACHE to INSTRUCTION_CACHE.
This avoids conflict with Linux asm/cachectl.h macros and fixes
build failure on mips hosts.
Backports commit 5f00335aecafc9ad56592d943619d3252f8941f1 from qemu
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.
Backports commit fe441054bb3f0c75ff23335790342c0408e11c3a from qemu
It calls cpu_loop_exit in system emulation mode (and should never be
called in user emulation mode).
Backports commit 50b3de6e5cd464dcc20e3a48f5a09e0299a184ac from qemu
We need to terminate the translation block after STGI so that pending
interrupts can be injected.
This fixes pending NMI injection for Jailhouse which uses "stgi; clgi"
to open a brief injection window.
Backports commit df2518aa587a0157bbfbc635fe47295629d9914a from qemu
Check for SVM interception prior to injecting an NMI. Tested via the
Jailhouse hypervisor.
Backports commit 02f7fd25a446a220905c2e5cb0fc3655d7f63b29 from qemu
The implementation of these two instructions was swapped.
At the same time, unify the setup of eflags for the insn group.
Backports commit 13672386a93fef64cfd33bd72fbf3d80f2c00e94 from qemu
