This patch changes the size of vvmcs[] array from 1 to
PER_VCPU_ACTIVE_VVMCS_NUM, and actually enables multiple active VMCS12
support in ACRN. The basic operations:
- if L1 VMPTRLDs a VMCS12 without previously VMCLEAR the current
VMCS12, ACRN no longer unconditionally flushes the current VMCS12
back to L1. Instead, it tries to keep both the current and the newly
loaded VMCS12 in the nested->vvmcs[] array, unless:
- if there is no more available vvmcs[] entry, ACRN flushes one active
VMCS12 to make room for this new VMCS12.

This patch declares the size of this array to 1, meaning that there is

No any logical changes, this patch is preparing for multiple active
VMCS12 support.
- currently it's easy to get the vmcs12 pointer from the vcpu pointer.
In multiple active vmcs12 case, we need to explicitly add "struct
acrn_vmcs12 *vmcs12" to certain APIs' input argument list, in order to
get the desired vmcs12 pointer.
- merge flush_current_vmcs12() into clear_vmcs02() for multiple reasons:
a) it's called only once; b) we don't wrap the opposite operation
(loading vmcs12) in an API; c) this API has simple and clear logic.

In run time, it's rare for L1 to write to the intercepted non host-state

This patch uses one single dirty flag to manage all non host-state VMCS

not need to declare new dirty flags when we intercept more VMCS fields.

Currently vmptrld_vmexit_handler() doesn't sync VMX_EPT_POINTER_FULL
from vmcs12 to vmcs02, instead it sets gpa_field_dirty and relies on
nested_vmentry() to sync EPTP in next nested VMentry.
This creates readability issue since all other intercepted VMCS fields
are synced in sync_vmcs12_to_vmcs02(). Another issue is that other
VMCS fields managed by gpa_field_dirty are repeatedly synced in both
vmptrld and nested vmentry handler.
This patch moves get_nept_desc() ahead of sync_vmcs12_to_vmcs02(), such
that shadow_eptp is allocated before sync_vmcs12_to_vmcs02() which
can sync EPTP properly.
BTW, in nested_vmexit_handler(), don't need to read from VMCS to get
the exit reason, since vcpu->arch.exit_reason has it already.

generate_shadow_ept_entry() didn't verify the correctness of the requested
guest EPT mapping. That might leak host memory access to L2 VM.
To simplify the implementation of the guest EPT audit, hide capabilities
'map 2-Mbyte page' and 'map 1-Gbyte page' from L1 VM. In addition,
minimize the attribute bits of EPT entry when create a shadow EPT entry.
Also, for invalid requested mapping address, reflect the EPT_VIOLATION to

Here, we have some TODOs:
1) Enable large page support in generate_shadow_ept_entry()
2) Evaluate if need to emulate the invalid GPA access of L2 in HV directly.
3) Minimize EPT entry attributes.

utilize the memory more efficient, a page poll sept_page_pool is

For simplicity, total platform RAM size is considered to calculate the
memory needed for shadow page tables. This is not an accurate upper
bound. This can satisfy typical use-cases where there is not a lot
of overcommitment and sharing of memory between L2 VMs.
Memory of the pool is marked as reserved from E820 table in early stage.

This patch implements the VMREAD and VMWRITE instructions.
When L1 guest is running with an active VMCS12, the “VMCS shadowing”
VM-execution control is always set to 1 in VMCS01. Thus the possible
behavior of VMREAD or VMWRITE from L1 could be:
- It causes a VM exit to L0 if the bit corresponds to the target VMCS
field in the VMREAD bitmap or VMWRITE bitmap is set to 1.
- It accesses the VMCS referenced by VMCS01 link pointer (VMCS02 in
our case) if the above mentioned bit is set to 0.
This patch handles the VMREAD and VMWRITE VM exits in this way:
- on VMWRITE, it writes the desired VMCS value to the respective field
in the cached VMCS12. For VMCS fields that need to be synced to VMCS02,
sets the corresponding dirty flag.
- on VMREAD, it reads the desired VMCS value from the cached VMCS12.

2) initialize VMCS02 revision ID and host-state area
3) load shadow fields from cache VMCS12 to VMCS02
