Add MSR access interfaces for supervisor shadow stack, i.e.,
MSR_IA32_PL{0,1,2} and MSR_IA32_INT_SSP_TAB, meanwhile pass through
them to {L1,L2} guests when {L0,L1} KVM supports supervisor shadow
stack.
Note, currently supervisor shadow stack is not supported on Intel
platforms, i.e., VMX always clears CPUID(EAX=07H,ECX=1).EDX.[bit 18].
The main purpose of this patch is to facilitate AMD folks to enable
supervisor shadow stack for their platforms.

Yes, I'll add check in next version, thanks!

I don't know how the SVM side works, but the host kernel doesn't use this xfeature. Just not clear on what the intention is. Why not use kvm_cet_kernel_shstk_supported() again?

I don't know how SVM supports supervisor SHSTK either, here just follows the spec. to add the dependency check. Maybe you're right, I need to use kvm_cet_kernel_shstk_supported() in my patch set and leave the work to SVM enabling patches. I'll change it, thanks!

I'll > change > it, thanks! Oh, I see the the SVM patch [0] is adding XFEATURE_MASK_CET_KERNEL to kvm_caps.supported_xss as long as kvm_cpu_cap_has(X86_FEATURE_SHSTK). And it does not look to be checking XSS host support like how kvm_caps.supported_xss is set in your patch. It should depend on host support, right? Is that the intent of kvm_caps.supported_xss? Separate from all that, the code above is in VMX, so not sure how it affects SVM in any case. I might be confused here. The code just looked suspicious.

I assumed the supervisor SHSTK states are backed via XSAVES/SRSTORS with XFEATURE_MASK_CET_KERNEL set in XSS. This is arguable since implementation is not determined, but XSAVES is an efficient way to manage the states compared with manually save/restore the MSRs. > >> to add the dependency check.
