https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92871 Bug ID: 92871 Summary: nested kvm - Warning in L0 kernel when trying to launch L2 guest in L1 guest Product: Virtualization Version: unspecified Kernel Version: 3.19.0-rc7 Hardware: All OS: Linux Tree: Mainline Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P1 Component: kvm Assignee: virtualization_kvm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Reporter: rik.theys@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Regression: No Hi, I've enabled nested KVM on my L0 (host) kernel and have created a guest with the CPU model copied from the host. Inside this guest I've installed libvirt and am trying to create a KVM guest (L2 guest). As soon as virt-manager tries to create the domain, the L1 guest reboots and the following WARNING is logged by the L0 kernel: Feb 06 20:35:18 saturn kernel: ------------[ cut here ]------------ Feb 06 20:35:18 saturn kernel: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 2352 at arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c:9190 nested_vmx_vmexit+0x7fe/0x890 [kvm_intel]() Feb 06 20:35:18 saturn kernel: Modules linked in: vhost_net vhost macvtap macvlan tun xt_CHECKSUM iptable_mangle ipt_MASQUERADE nf_nat_masquerade_ipv4 iptable_nat nf_nat_ipv4 nf_nat ipt_REJECT nf_reject_ipv4 bridge stp llc bnep bluetooth binfmt_misc cpufreq_userspace cpufreq_powersave cpufreq_conservative cpufreq_stats nf_conntrack_ipv6 nf_defrag_ipv6 ip6table_filter ip6_tables xt_tcpudp nf_conntrack_ipv4 nf_defrag_ipv4 xt_conntrack nf_conntrack iptable_filter ip_tables x_tables snd_hda_codec_hdmi cx88_blackbird cx2341x cx22702 cx88_dvb cx88_vp3054_i2c videobuf2_dvb dvb_core wm8775 tuner_simple tuner_types iTCO_wdt iTCO_vendor_support tda9887 tda8290 tuner snd_hda_codec_via snd_hda_codec_generic evdev snd_hda_intel cx8800 snd_hda_controller nouveau cx8802 snd_hda_codec videobuf2_dma_sg joydev cx88_alsa coretemp snd_hwdep Feb 06 20:35:18 saturn kernel: videobuf2_memops video mxm_wmi cx88xx wmi videobuf2_core tveeprom rc_core v4l2_common videodev media kvm_intel drm_kms_helper ttm drm snd_pcm arc4 kvm psmouse rt61pci eeprom_93cx6 rt2x00pci rt2x00mmio snd_timer rt2x00lib snd mac80211 cfg80211 i2c_algo_bit i2c_i801 soundcore serio_raw rfkill i7core_edac edac_core 8250_fintek xhci_pci xhci_hcd i2c_core lpc_ich mfd_core asus_atk0110 shpchp button acpi_cpufreq processor thermal_sys loop firewire_sbp2 fuse parport_pc ppdev lp parport autofs4 ext4 crc16 mbcache jbd2 btrfs xor raid6_pq dm_mod raid1 raid0 md_mod sg sr_mod cdrom sd_mod hid_generic usbhid hid usb_storage crc32c_intel firewire_ohci ahci libahci firewire_core crc_itu_t libata scsi_mod ehci_pci ehci_hcd r8169 mii usbcore usb_common Feb 06 20:35:18 saturn kernel: CPU: 0 PID: 2352 Comm: qemu-system-x86 Not tainted 3.19.0-rc7 #1 Feb 06 20:35:18 saturn kernel: Hardware name: System manufacturer System Product Name/P7P55D-E, BIOS 1504 12/14/2010 Feb 06 20:35:18 saturn kernel: 0000000000000000 ffffffffa06f19fa ffffffff815357b8 0000000000000000 Feb 06 20:35:18 saturn kernel: ffffffff8106cde1 ffff8801e4f53000 0000000000000000 0000000000000014 Feb 06 20:35:18 saturn kernel: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 ffffffffa06de3ce 0000000000000000 Feb 06 20:35:18 saturn kernel: Call Trace: Feb 06 20:35:18 saturn kernel: [<ffffffff815357b8>] ? dump_stack+0x40/0x50 Feb 06 20:35:18 saturn kernel: [<ffffffff8106cde1>] ? warn_slowpath_common+0x81/0xb0 Feb 06 20:35:18 saturn kernel: [<ffffffffa06de3ce>] ? nested_vmx_vmexit+0x7fe/0x890 [kvm_intel] Feb 06 20:35:18 saturn kernel: [<ffffffffa05d370b>] ? kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run+0xd7b/0x1220 [kvm] Feb 06 20:35:18 saturn kernel: [<ffffffffa05cf0cc>] ? kvm_arch_vcpu_load+0x4c/0x1f0 [kvm] Feb 06 20:35:18 saturn kernel: [<ffffffffa05bf982>] ? kvm_vcpu_ioctl+0x322/0x5d0 [kvm] Feb 06 20:35:18 saturn kernel: [<ffffffff8109bdc6>] ? set_next_entity+0x56/0x70 Feb 06 20:35:18 saturn kernel: [<ffffffff810128e0>] ? __switch_to+0x440/0x5e0 Feb 06 20:35:18 saturn kernel: [<ffffffff811cf908>] ? do_vfs_ioctl+0x2e8/0x4f0 Feb 06 20:35:18 saturn kernel: [<ffffffff8110161c>] ? __audit_syscall_entry+0xbc/0x110 Feb 06 20:35:18 saturn kernel: [<ffffffff810228fb>] ? syscall_trace_enter_phase1+0xfb/0x160 Feb 06 20:35:18 saturn kernel: [<ffffffffa05c71a4>] ? kvm_on_user_return+0x44/0x80 [kvm] Feb 06 20:35:18 saturn kernel: [<ffffffff811cfb91>] ?
