[PATCH 4/4] KVM: nVMX: Don't set vmcs12 to "launched" when VMLAUNCH fails

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

 



The VMCS launch state is not set to "launched" unless the VMLAUNCH
actually succeeds. VMLAUNCH failure includes VM-entry failure during
or after loading guest state (i.e. VM-exits with bit 31 set in the
exit reason).

Note that this change does not address the related problem that a
failure to launch/resume vmcs02 (i.e. vmx->fail) is not handled
correctly.

Fixes: cd232ad02f002 ("KVM: nVMX: Implement VMLAUNCH and VMRESUME")
