[PATCH 18/34] KVM: x86/mmu: Handle page fault for private memory

From: Chao Peng <chao.p.peng at linux.intel.com>

Add support for resolving page faults on guest private memory for VMs
that differentiate between "shared" and "private" memory.  For such VMs,
KVM_MEM_PRIVATE memslots can include both fd-based private memory and
hva-based shared memory, and KVM needs to map in the "correct" variant,
i.e. KVM needs to map the gfn shared/private as appropriate based on the
current state of the gfn's KVM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTE_PRIVATE flag.

For AMD's SEV-SNP and Intel's TDX, the guest effectively gets to request
shared vs. private via a bit in the guest page tables, i.e. what the guest
wants may conflict with the current memory attributes.  To support such
"implicit" conversion requests, exit to user with KVM_EXIT_MEMORY_FAULT
to forward the request to userspace.  Add a new flag for memory faults,
KVM_MEMORY_EXIT_FLAG_PRIVATE, to communicate whether the guest wants to
map memory as shared vs. private.

Like KVM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTE_PRIVATE, use bit 3 for flagging private memory
so that KVM can use bits 0-2 for capturing RWX behavior if/when userspace
needs such information, e.g. a likely user of KVM_EXIT_MEMORY_FAULT is to
exit on missing mappings when handling guest page fault VM-Exits.  In
that case, userspace will want to know RWX information in order to
correctly/precisely resolve the fault.

Note, private memory *must* be backed by guest_memfd, i.e. shared mappings
always come from the host userspace page tables, and private mappings
always come from a guest_memfd instance.

 KVM_EXIT_MEMORY_FAULT indicates the vCPU has encountered a memory fault that
 could not be resolved by KVM.  The 'gpa' and 'size' (in bytes) describe the
 guest physical address range [gpa, gpa + size) of the fault.  The 'flags' field
-describes properties of the faulting access that are likely pertinent.
-Currently, no flags are defined.
+describes properties of the faulting access that are likely pertinent:
+
+ - KVM_MEMORY_EXIT_FLAG_PRIVATE - When set, indicates the memory fault occurred
+   on a private memory access.  When clear, indicates the fault occurred on a
+   shared access.
 
 Note!  KVM_EXIT_MEMORY_FAULT is unique among all KVM exit reasons in that it
 accompanies a return code of '-1', not '0'!  errno will always be set to EFAULT
