Alright, so we are still testing the version we're working on but here
are some test results...

The merge request can be found here:
https://code.launchpad.net/~rafaeldtinoco/ubuntu/+source/qemu/+git/qemu/+merge/368804
with code reviews and comments in between the backport attempts.

PPA containing a test version can be found here:
https://launchpad.net/~rafaeldtinoco/+archive/ubuntu/lp1828495

And the HOST and GUEST kernels were: Linux XXX 4.18.0-23-generic
#24~18.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jun 13 17:08:52 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64
GNU/Linux

since the regular bionic kernel has to have support backported.

I have tested for the MITIGATIONS in:

1) HOST (Bionic)

2) OLD QEMU GUEST (Bionic)

3) NEW QEMU (w/ backport) GUEST (Bionic)

And will show the results:

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.
