I heard back from MS, they admited the bug and suggested us ... to hide the control from L1 when eVMCS is enabled. No surprises here. They also said the bug is unlikely to get fixed in the existing Hyper-V versions (2016 and 2019) so it seems we're stuck with the hack for awhile :-( ... >>> >>> #endif /* __KVM_X86_VMX_EVMCS_H */ >>> diff --git a/arch/x86/kvm/vmx/vmx.c b/arch/x86/kvm/vmx/vmx.c >>> index e3394c839dea..8eb74618b8d8 100644 >>> --- a/arch/x86/kvm/vmx/vmx.c >>> +++ b/arch/x86/kvm/vmx/vmx.c >>> @@ -1849,8 +1849,14 @@ static int vmx_get_msr(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu, struct msr_data *msr_info) >>> case MSR_IA32_VMX_BASIC ...
