mainline inclusion from mainline-v5.1-rc1 commit 164bf7e56c5a73f2f819c39ba7e0f20e0f97dc7b category: feature bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I4MKP4 CVE: NA
--------------------------------
...now that KVM won't explode by moving it out of bit 0. Using bit 63 eliminates the need to jump over bit 0, e.g. when calculating a new memslots generation or when propagating the memslots generation to an MMIO spte.

Thus, the MMIO spte might be created based on out-of-date information, but with an up-to-date generation number.
To avoid this, the generation number is incremented again after synchronize_srcu -returns; thus, the low bit of kvm_memslots(kvm)->generation is only 1 during a +returns; thus, bit 63 of kvm_memslots(kvm)->generation set to 1 only during a memslot update, while some SRCU readers might be using the old copy.

The "update in-progress" bit of the +generation is not stored in MMIO spte, and is so is implicitly zero when the +generation is extracted out of the spte. If KVM is unlucky and creates an MMIO +spte while an update is in-progress, the next access to the spte will always be +a cache miss. For example, a subsequent access during the update window will +miss due to the in-progress flag diverging, while an access after the update +window closes will have a higher generation number (as compared to the spte).
