[PATCH] target/i386: kvm: Fix when nested state is needed for migration

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

 



When vCPU is in VMX operation and enters SMM mode,
it temporarily exits VMX operation but KVM maintained nested-state
still stores the VMXON region physical address, i.e. even when the
vCPU is in SMM mode then (nested_state->hdr.vmx.vmxon_pa != -1ull).

Therefore, there is no need to explicitly check for
KVM_STATE_NESTED_SMM_VMXON to determine if it is necessary
to save nested-state as part of migration stream.

In addition, destination must enable eVMCS if it is enabled on
source as specified by the KVM_STATE_NESTED_EVMCS flag, even if
the VMXON region is not set. Thus, change the code to require saving
nested-state as part of migration stream in case it is set.
