[PATCH] KVM: vmx: fix VPID is 0000H in non-root operation

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Reference SDM 28.1:

The current VPID is 0000H in the following situations:
— Outside VMX operation. (This includes operation in system-management 
  mode under the default treatment of SMIs and SMM with VMX operation; 
  see Section 34.14.)
— In VMX root operation.
— In VMX non-root operation when the “enable VPID” VM-execution control 
  is 0.

The VPID should never be 0000H in non-root operation when "enable VPID" 
VM-execution control is 1. However, commit (34a1cd60: 'kvm: x86: vmx: 
move some vmx setting from vmx_init() to hardware_setup()') remove the 
codes which reserve 0000H for VMX root operation. 

This patch fix it by reintroducing reserve 0000H for VMX root operation.
