[PATCH v10 06/11] KVM: x86: Add KVM_CAP_X86_GUEST_LBR to dis/enable LBR from user-space

The LBR feature is model specific. Introduce KVM_CAP_X86_GUEST_LBR to
control per-VM enablement of the guest LBR feature (disabled by default).

For enable_cap ioctl, the first input parameter is whether LBR feature
should be enabled or not, and the second parameter is the pointer to
the userspace memory to save the LBR records information. If the
second parameter is invalid or the guest/host cpu model doesn't match,
it returns -EINVAL which means the LBR feature cannot be enabled.

For check_extension ioctl, the return value could help userspace calculate
the total size of the complete guest LBR entries for compatibility check.

+7.20 KVM_CAP_X86_GUEST_LBR
+Architectures: x86
+Parameters: args[0] whether LBR feature should be enabled or not,
+ args[1] pointer to the userspace memory to save the LBR records information.
+
+the LBR records information is described by
+struct x86_pmu_lbr {
+ unsigned int nr;
+ unsigned int from;
+ unsigned int to;
+ unsigned int info;
+};
+
+@nr: number of LBR records entries;
+@from: index of the msr that stores a branch source address;
+@to: index of the msr that stores a branch destination address;
+@info: index of the msr that stores LBR related flags, such as misprediction.
+
+Enabling this capability allows guest accesses to the LBR feature. Otherwise,
+#GP will be injected to the guest when it accesses to the LBR registers.
+
+After the feature is enabled, before exiting to userspace, kvm handlers
+would fill the LBR records info into the userspace memory pointed by args[1].
+
+The return value of kvm_vm_ioctl_check_extension for KVM_CAP_X86_GUEST_LBR
+is the size of 'struct x86_pmu_lbr' and userspace could calculate the total
+size of the complete guest LBR entries for functional compatibility check.
+
8. Other capabilities.
