You have another pointing out about this. https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/2/5/518 vmcs12->host_cr3/host_cr4 has the up-to-date value when L1 is running, it is still up-to-date after vmexit due to L1 executes VMLAUNCH/VMRESUME, I think the value stays the same before L0 emulates the VMLAUNCH/VMRESUME, according to below comments, why vmcs12->host_cr3/cr4 is not the value which we should restore? * After an early L2 VM-entry failure, we're now back * in L1 which thinks it just finished a VMLAUNCH or * VMRESUME instruction Regards, Wanpeng Li
