[PATCH v2 0/5] Small changes related to prefetch and spurious faults

[Yan Zhao <yan.y.zhao@intel.com>]

Hi

This is v2 of the series for some small changes related to
prefetch/prefault and spurious faults.

Patch 1: Checks if a shadow-present old SPTE is leaf to determine a
         prefetch fault is spurious.

Patch 2: Merges the checks for prefetch and is_access_allowed() for
         spurious faults into a common path.

Patch 3: Adds a warning when the PFN changes on a spurious fault in the TDP
         MMU

Patch 4: Adds a warning when the PFN changes on a shadow-present SPTE in
         the shadow MMU. This implementation differs from the v1
         discussion. Upon reconsideration, I realized that WARN_ON_ONCE()
         in mmu_spte_update() cannot warn when the PFN changes on a
         shadow-present SPTE. Add the warning in mmu_set_spte() and have 
         the prefetch fault to leverage the warning.

Patch 5: Checks req and frees obsolete roots in each MMU reload.

With below scenario
1. add a memslot with size 4K
2. prefault GPA A in the memslot
3. delete the memslot
4. re-add the memslot with size 2M
5. prefault GPA A again.

Patch 1 is required if zap all quirk is disabled in step 3.
Patch 5 is required if zap all is performed in step 3 and if step 2/5 are
        executed before any vcpu_run().

Change log:
v2:
- Check both fault->prefetch and is_access_allowed() in patch 2. (Sean)
- Split patch 3 in v1 into patches 3 and 4.
- Only warn on PFN changes in case of spurious fault in TDP MMU in patch 3.
  (Sean).
- Add patch 4 to warn on PFN changes on shadow-present SPTE in shadow MMU.
- Move kvm_mmu_free_obsolete_roots() from kvm_arch_vcpu_pre_fault_memory()
  to kvm_mmu_reload() in patch 5. (Sean)

Thanks
