[PATCH 0/2] KVM: x86/mmu: Fix TLB flushing bugs in TDP MMU

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

 



Two bug fixes involving the TDP MMU.  Found by inspection while working on
a series to consolidate MMU notifier memslot walks across architectures,
which I'll hopefully post next week.

Patch 1 fixes a bug where KVM yields, e.g. due to lock contention, without
performing a pending TLB flush that was required from a previous root.

Patch 2 fixes a much more egregious bug where it fails to handle TDP MMU
flushes in NX huge page recovery, as well as a similar bug to patch 1
where KVM can yield without correctly handling a previously triggered
pending TLB flush.
