x86/KVM/VMX: Add L1D flush logic
Add the logic for flushing L1D on VMENTER. The flush depends on the static key being enabled and the new l1tf_flush_l1d flag being set. The flags is set: - Always, if the flush module parameter is 'always' - Conditionally at: - Entry to vcpu_run(), i.e. after executing user space - From the sched_in notifier, i.e. when switching to a vCPU thread. - From vmexit handlers which are considered unsafe, i.e. where sensitive data can be brought into L1D: - The emulator, which could be a good target for other speculative execution-based threats, - The MMU, which can bring host page tables in the L1 cache. - External interrupts - Nested operations that require the MMU (see above). That is vmptrld, vmptrst, vmclear,vmwrite,vmread. - When handling invept,invvpid [ tglx: Split out from combo patch and reduced to a single flag ] Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
