  • List-id: Xen developer discussion <xen-devel.lists.xenproject.org>

Right now, dom0's feature configuration is split between between the common
path and a dom0-specific one.  This mostly is by accident, and causes some
very subtle bugs.

First, start by clearly defining init_dom0_cpuid_policy() to be the domain
that Xen builds automatically.  The late hwdom case is still constructed in a
mostly normal way, with the control domain having full discretion over the CPU
policy.

Identifying this highlights a latent bug - the two halves of the MSR_ARCH_CAPS
bodge are asymmetric with respect to the hardware domain.  This means that
shim, or a control-only dom0 sees the MSR_ARCH_CAPS CPUID bit but none of the
MSR content.  This in turn declares the hardware to be retpoline-safe by
failing to advertise the {R,}RSBA bits appropriately.  Restrict this logic to
the hardware domain, although the special case will cease to exist shortly.

For the CPUID Faulting adjustment, the comment in ctxt_switch_levelling()
isn't actually relevant.  Provide a better explanation.

Move the recalculate_cpuid_policy() call outside of the dom0-cpuid= case.
This is no change for now, but will become necessary shortly.

Finally, place the second half of the MSR_ARCH_CAPS bodge after the
recalculate_cpuid_policy() call.  This is necessary to avoid transiently
breaking the hardware domain's view while the handling is cleaned up.  This
special case will cease to exist shortly.
