For efficiently emulating x86 instructions, we need to build and pass a
CPU state copy/reference to instruction emulation handlers. Those handlers
will typically modify the CPU state and let the caller commit those
changes back through the PlatformEmulator trait set_cpu_state method.
Hypervisors typically have internal CPU state structures, that maps back
to the correspinding kernel APIs. By implementing the CpuState trait,
instruction emulators will be able to directly work on CPU state
instances that are directly consumable by the underlying hypervisor and
its kernel APIs.

In order to emulate instructions, we need a way to get access to some of
the guest resources. The PlatformEmulator interface provides guest
memory and CPU state access to emulator implementations.
Typically, an hypervisor will implement PlatformEmulator for architecture
specific instruction emulators to build their framework on top of.

This interface is used by the vCPU thread to delegate responsibility for
handling MMIO/PIO operations and to support different approaches than a
VM exit.
During profiling I found that we were spending 13.75% of the boot CPU
uage acquiring access to the object holding the VmmOps via
ArcSwap::load_full()
13.75% 6.02% vcpu0 cloud-hypervisor [.] arc_swap::ArcSwapAny<T,S>::load_full
|
---arc_swap::ArcSwapAny<T,S>::load_full
|
--13.43%--<hypervisor::kvm::KvmVcpu as hypervisor::cpu::Vcpu>::run
std::sys_common::backtrace::__rust_begin_short_backtrace
core::ops::function::FnOnce::call_once{{vtable-shim}}
std::sys::unix:🧵:Thread:🆕:thread_start
However since the object implementing VmmOps does not need to be mutable
and it is only used from the vCPU side we can change the ownership to
being a simple Arc<> that is passed in when calling create_vcpu().
This completely removes the above CPU usage from subsequent profiles.

Cloning the ArcSwapOption (like the ArcSwap) does not act like a
.clone() on an Arc, instead an entirely new ArcSwap is created with the
same contents. To correctly share the ArcSwap needs to be placed inside
an Arc.
See: 2433d5719b (diff-6c6d94533c44c19bd1416ef17bad1a878e63dca6e98d59181228fbe8f967c62bR6)

The snasphot/restore feature is not working because some CPU states are
not properly saved, which means they can't be restored later on.
First thing, we ensure the CPUID is stored so that it can be properly
restored later. The code is simplified and pushed down to the hypervisor
crate.
Second thing, we identify for each vCPU if the Hyper-V SynIC device is
emulated or not. In case it is, that means some specific MSRs will be
set by the guest. These MSRs must be saved in order to properly restore
the VM.

Based on the way KVM_GET_MSRS and KVM_SET_MSRS work, both function are
very unlikely to fail, as they simply stop looping through the list of
MSRs as soon as getting or setting one fails. This is causing some
issues with the snapshot/restore feature, as on some platforms, we only
save a subset of the list of MSRs, leading to unproper way of saving the
VM.
The way to address this issue is by checking the number of MSRs get/set
matches the expected amount from the list. In case it does not match, we
simply ignore the failing MSR and continue getting/setting the rest of
the list. By doing this by iterations, we end up getting/setting as many
MSRs as the platform can support.

The support for SGX is exposed to the guest through CPUID 0x12. KVM
passes static subleaves 0 and 1 from the host to the guest, without
needing any modification from the VMM itself.
But SGX also relies on dynamic subleaves 2 through N, used for
describing each EPC section. This is not handled by KVM, which means
the VMM is in charge of setting each subleaf starting from index 2
up to index N, depending on the number of EPC sections.
These subleaves 2 through N are not listed as part of the supported
CPUID entries from KVM. But it's important to set them as long as index
0 and 1 are present and indicate that SGX is supported.

In order to move the hypervisor specific parts of the VM exit handling
path, we're defining a generic, hypervisor agnostic VM exit enum.
This is what the hypervisor's Vcpu run() call should return when the VM
exit can not be completely handled through the hypervisor specific bits.
For KVM based hypervisors, this means directly forwarding the IO related
exits back to the VMM itself. For other hypervisors that e.g. rely on the
VMM to decode and emulate instructions, this means the decoding itself
would happen in the hypervisor crate exclusively, and the rest of the VM
exit handling would be handled through the VMM device model implementation.
