This patch introduces a hypercall that can assist against subset of kernel
rootkits, it works by place readonly protection in shadow PTE. The end
result protection is also kept in a bitmap for each kvm_memory_slot and is
used as reference when updating SPTEs. The whole goal is to protect the
guest kernel static data from modification if attacker is running from
guest ring 0, for this reason there is no hypercall to revert effect of
Memory ROE hypercall. This patch doesn't implement integrity check on guest
TLB so obvious attack on the current implementation will involve guest
virtual address -> guest physical address remapping, but there are plans to
fix that. For this patch to work on a given arch/ one would need to
implement 2 function that are architecture specific:
kvm_roe_arch_commit_protection() and kvm_roe_arch_is_userspace(). Also it
would need to have kvm_roe invoked using the appropriate hypercall
mechanism.
