[PATCH v1 13/13] KVM: Documentation: Add KVM_CAP_USERFAULT and KVM_MEM_USERFAULT details

[James Houghton]

Include the note about memory ordering when clearing bits in
userfault_bitmap, as it may not be obvious for users.

  I would like to include the new -EFAULT reason in the documentation for
  KVM_RUN (the case where userfault_bitmap could not be read), as -EFAULT
  usually means that GUP failed.

+When the KVM_MEM_USERFAULT flag is set, userfault_bitmap points to the starting
+address for the bitmap that controls if vCPU memory faults should immediately
+exit to userspace. If an invalid pointer is provided, at fault time, KVM_RUN
+will return -EFAULT. KVM_MEM_USERFAULT is only supported when
+KVM_CAP_USERFAULT is supported.

+userfault_bitmap should point to an array of longs where each bit in the array
+linearly corresponds to a single gfn. Bit 0 in userfault_bitmap corresponds to
+guest_phys_addr, bit 1 corresponds to guest_phys_addr + PAGE_SIZE, etc. If the
+bit for a page is set, any vCPU access to that page will exit to userspace with
+KVM_MEMORY_EXIT_FLAG_USERFAULT.
+
+Setting bits in userfault_bitmap has no effect on pages that have already been
+mapped by KVM until KVM_MEM_USERFAULT is disabled and re-enabled again.
+
+Clearing bits in userfault_bitmap should usually be done with a store-release
+if changes to guest memory are being made available to the guest via
+userfault_bitmap.
