[PATCH v2] KVM: nVMX: Clear reserved bits of #DB exit qualification

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

 



According to volume 3 of the SDM, bits 63:15 and 12:4 of the exit
qualification field for debug exceptions are reserved (cleared to
0). However, the SDM is incorrect about bit 16 (corresponding to
DR6.RTM). This bit should be set if a debug exception (#DB) or a
breakpoint exception (#BP) occurred inside an RTM region while
advanced debugging of RTM transactional regions was enabled. Note that
this is the opposite of DR6.RTM, which "indicates (when clear) that a
debug exception (#DB) or breakpoint exception (#BP) occurred inside an
RTM region while advanced debugging of RTM transactional regions was
enabled."

There is still an issue with stale DR6 bits potentially being
misreported for the current debug exception.  DR6 should not have been
modified before vectoring the #DB exception, and the "new DR6 bits"
should be available somewhere, but it was and they aren't.
