This is already true today, e.g. a #MC in memory that is mapped into the guest can
be triggered by a host access.  Hrm, but in this case we actually have a KVM
instance, and we know that the #MC is relevant to the KVM instance, so I agree
that signaling 'current' is kludgy.

We care.  I was originally thinking we could require userspace to keep track of
things, but that's quite prescriptive and flawed, e.g. could race with conversions.

One option would be to KVM_EXIT_MEMORY_FAULT, and then wire up a generic (not x86
specific) KVM request to exit to userspace, e.g.

		/* KVM_EXIT_MEMORY_FAULT */
		struct {
#define KVM_MEMORY_EXIT_FLAG_PRIVATE	(1ULL << 3)
#define KVM_MEMORY_EXIT_FLAG_HW_ERROR	(1ULL << 4)
			__u64 flags;
			__u64 gpa;
			__u64 size;
		} memory;

But I'm not sure that's the correct approach.  It kinda feels like we're reinventing
the wheel.  It seems like restrictedmem_get_page() _must_ be able to reject attempts
to get a poisoned page, i.e. restrictedmem_get_page() should yield KVM_PFN_ERR_HWPOISON.
Assuming that's the case, then I believe KVM simply needs to zap SPTEs in response
to an error notification in order to force vCPUs to fault on the poisoned page.

Ya, but if/when live migration support is added, private memslots will no longer
be immutable as userspace will want to enable dirty logging only when a VM is
being migrated, i.e. something will need to change.

Given that it looks like we have clear line of sight to SEV+UPM guests, my
preference would be to allow toggling dirty logging from the get-go.  It doesn't
necessarily have to be in the first patch, e.g. KVM could initially reject
KVM_MEM_LOG_DIRTY_PAGES + KVM_MEM_PRIVATE and then add support separately to make
the series easier to review, test, and bisect.

static int check_memory_region_flags(struct kvm *kvm,
				     const struct kvm_userspace_memory_region2 *mem)
{
	u32 valid_flags = KVM_MEM_LOG_DIRTY_PAGES;

	if (kvm_arch_has_private_mem(kvm) &&
	    ~(mem->flags & KVM_MEM_LOG_DIRTY_PAGES))
		valid_flags |= KVM_MEM_PRIVATE;


	...
}

Oof.  I'm pretty sure I completely missed that loff_t is used for byte offsets,
whereas pgoff_t is a frame index. 

Given that the restrictmem APIs take pgoff_t, I definitely think it makes sense
to the index, but I'm very tempted to store pgoff_t instead of gfn_t, and name
the field "index" to help connect the dots to the rest of kernel, where "pgoff_t index"
is quite common.

And looking at those bits again, we should wrap all of the restrictedmem fields
with CONFIG_KVM_PRIVATE_MEM.  It'll require minor tweaks to __kvm_set_memory_region(),
but I think will yield cleaner code (and internal APIs) overall.

And wrap the three fields in an anonymous struct?  E.g. this is a little more
versbose (restrictedmem instead restricted), but at first glance it doesn't seem
to cause widespared line length issues.

#ifdef CONFIG_KVM_PRIVATE_MEM
	struct {
		struct file *file;
		pgoff_t index;
		struct restrictedmem_notifier notifier;
	} restrictedmem;
#endif
