A VMEnter that VMFails (as opposed to VMExits) does not touch host
state beyond registers that are explicitly noted in the VMFail path,
e.g. EFLAGS. Host state does not need to be loaded because VMFail
is only signaled for consistency checks that occur before the CPU
starts to load guest state, i.e. there is no need to restore any
state as nothing has been modified. But in the case where a VMFail
is detected by hardware and not by KVM (due to deferring consistency
checks to hardware), KVM has already loaded some amount of guest
state. Luckily, "loaded" only means loaded to KVM's software model,
i.e. vmcs01 has not been modified. So, unwind our software model to
the pre-VMEntry host state.
Not restoring host state in this VMFail path leads to a variety of
failures because we end up with stale data in vcpu->arch, e.g. CR0,
CR4, EFER, etc... will all be out of sync relative to vmcs01. Any
significant delta in the stale data is all but guaranteed to crash
L1, e.g. emulation of SMEP, SMAP, UMIP, WP, etc... will be wrong.
An alternative to this "soft" reload would be to load host state from
vmcs12 as if we triggered a VMExit (as opposed to VMFail), but that is
wildly inconsistent with respect to the VMX architecture, e.g. an L1
VMM with separate VMExit and VMFail paths would explode.
Note that this approach does not mean KVM is 100% accurate with
respect to VMX hardware behavior, even at an architectural level
(the exact order of consistency checks is microarchitecture specific).
But 100% emulation accuracy isn't the goal (with this patch), rather
the goal is to be consistent in the information delivered to L1, e.g.
a VMExit should not fall-through VMENTER, and a VMFail should not jump
to HOST_RIP.
This technically reverts commit "5af4157388ad (KVM: nVMX: Fix mmu
context after VMLAUNCH/VMRESUME failure)", but retains the core
aspects of that patch, just in an open coded form due to the need to
pull state from vmcs01 instead of vmcs12. Restoring host state
resolves a variety of issues introduced by commit "4f350c6dbcb9
(kvm: nVMX: Handle deferred early VMLAUNCH/VMRESUME failure properly)",
which remedied the incorrect behavior of treating VMFail like VMExit
but in doing so neglected to restore arch state that had been modified
prior to attempting nested VMEnter.
A sample failure that occurs due to stale vcpu.arch state is a fault
of some form while emulating an LGDT (due to emulated UMIP) from L1
after a failed VMEntry to L3, in this case when running the KVM unit
test test_tpr_threshold_values in L1. L0 also hits a WARN in this
case due to a stale arch.cr4.UMIP.
