[PATCH v2] KVM: vVMX: signal failure for nested VMEntry if emulation_required

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

 



Fail a nested VMEntry with EXIT_REASON_INVALID_STATE if L2 guest state
is invalid, i.e. vmcs12 contained invalid guest state, and unrestricted
guest is disabled in L0 (and by extension disabled in L1).

WARN_ON_ONCE in handle_invalid_guest_state() if we're attempting to
emulate L2, i.e. nested_run_pending is true, to aid debug in the
(hopefully unlikely) scenario that we somehow skip the nested VMEntry
consistency check, e.g. due to a L0 bug.

Note: KVM relies on hardware to detect the scenario where unrestricted
guest is enabled in L0 but disabled in L1 and vmcs12 contains invalid
guest state, i.e. checking emulation_required in prepare_vmcs02 is
required only to handle the case were unrestricted guest is disabled
in L0 since L0 never actually attempts VMLAUNCH/VMRESUME with vmcs02.

v2: Rework the patch to fix the underlying bug of not catching nested
    VMEntry with invalid guest state and unrestricted guest disabled.
