Changes in v2: *Add pku.c for kvm-unit-tests. *Optimize permission_fault codes for patch4. *Delete is_long_mode and PK for patch5. *Squash cpuid and cr4 patches. The protection-key feature provides an additional mechanism by which IA-32e paging controls access to usermode addresses. Hardware support for protection keys for user pages is enumerated with CPUID feature flag CPUID.7.0.ECX[3]:PKU. Software support is CPUID.7.0.ECX[4]:OSPKE with the setting of CR4.PKE(bit 22). When CR4.PKE = 1, every linear address is associated with the 4-bit protection key located in bits 62:59 of the paging-structure entry that mapped the page containing the linear address. The PKRU register determines, for each protection key, whether user-mode addresses with that protection key may be read or written. The PKRU register (protection key rights for user pages) is a 32-bit register with the following format: for each i (0 ≤ i ≤ 15), PKRU[2i] is the access-disable bit for protection key i (ADi); PKRU[2i+1] is the write-disable bit for protection key i (WDi). Software can use the RDPKRU and WRPKRU instructions with ECX = 0 to read and write PKRU. In addition, the PKRU register is XSAVE-managed state and can thus be read and written by instructions in the XSAVE feature set. PFEC.PK (bit 5) is defined as protection key violations. The specification of Protection Keys can be found at SDM (4.6.2, volume 3) http://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/manuals/64-ia-32-architectures-software-developer-manual-325462.pdf.
