Hello quanxian, or anyone else affected,

Accepted qemu into bionic-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu/1:2.11+dfsg-
1ubuntu7.16 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-bionic to verification-done-bionic. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-bionic. In either case, without details of
your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

** Changed in: qemu (Ubuntu Bionic)
       Status: In Progress => Fix Committed

** Tags added: verification-needed-bionic

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * QEMU does not support IceLake and CascadeLake CPUs specific features.
   * Most important feature to be supported is: IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES MSR.
   * With IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES, QEMU is able to advertise HW mitigations:
     - Rogue Data Cache Load
     - Enhanced IBRS
     - RSB Alternate
     - L1D flush need on VMENTRY
     - speculative Store Bypass
     to guests, as described in document:
     Intel 336996-Speculative-Execution-Side-Channel-Mitigations.pdf

  [Test Case]

   * From Original Description:

  """
  1. Boot up guest using: -cpu Cascadelake-Server

  [root@clx-2s2 yexin]# qemu-system-x86_64 -accel kvm -drive
  if=virtio,id=hd,file=/home/x/x,format=qcow2  -m 4096 -smp 4 -cpu
  Cascadelake-Server -serial stdio

  char device redirected to /dev/pts/3 (label serial0)

  qemu-system-x86_64: warning: host doesn't support requested feature:
  CPUID.07H:ECX [bit 4]

  qemu-system-x86_64: warning: host doesn't support requested feature:
  CPUID.07H:ECX [bit 4]

  qemu-system-x86_64: warning: host doesn't support requested feature:
  CPUID.07H:ECX [bit 4]

  qemu-system-x86_64: warning: host doesn't support requested feature:
  CPUID.07H:ECX [bit 4]

  2. To check CPU ID related to features[FEAT_7_0_EDX]
  :CPUID_7_0_EDX_ARCH_CAPABILITIES

  Expected Result: Both host and guest's CPUID.07H EDX bit 29 should be
  1.

  Actual Result:

  Host's cpuid: 0x00000007 0x00: eax=0x00000000 ebx=0xd39ffffb
  ecx=0x00000818 edx=0xbc000000  (EDX bit 29=1)

  Guest's cpuid : 0x00000007 0x00: eax=0x00000000 ebx=0xd19f0fb9
  ecx=0x00000818 edx=0x84000000 (EDX bit 29=0)

  Commit:2bdb76c015df7125783d8394d6339d181cb5bc30

  Target Kerned: 5.1
  Target Release: 19.10

  """

  [Regression Potential]

   * Most changes are related to CPU type definitions and its supported
  features. They are all based in upstream changes but, for obvious
  reasons, backporting and/or cherry-picking those could bring issues.
  Biggest concern is breaking something that currently works. Right now,
  the parts being changed that could affect other CPU types would be
  related to a small refactoring of how the features are organized, and
  that would be seen right away when trying to start a new VM after the
  package is installed.

   * Other tests, related to the features being backported, are being
  done by our KVM regression tests, including migration combinations, to
  reduce chances that a regression is introduced.
