[patch V2 0/7] x86/kvm: RCU/context tracking and instrumentation protections

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

 



Folks,

this is a rebased and adopted version of the original series which is
available here:

     https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200519203128.773151484@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
 
It deals with the RCU and context tracking state and the protection against
instrumentation in sensitive places:

  - Placing the guest_enter/exit() calls at the correct place

  - Moving the sensitive VMENTER/EXIT code into the non-instrumentable code
    section.

  - Fixup the tracing code to comply with the non-instrumentation rules

  - Use native functions to access CR2 and the GS base MSR in the critical
    code pathes to prevent them from being instrumented.

Thanks,

	tglx
