[PATCH 00/13] SVM: vNMI (with my fixes)

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

 



Hi!

This is the vNMI patch series from Santosh Shukla with few
small fixes from me:

1. When a vNMI injection is pending, then to allow to not
  delay for an unbounded time the injection of another NMI that could
  arrive before the first vNMI injection is done, I added the code
  that would intercept IRET/RSM/STGI and then try the injection again.

2. I slighlty modified the 'KVM: SVM: Add VNMI support in get/set_nmi_mask'
   to have WARN_ON in vNMI functions when called without vNMI enabled.
   Also NMI mask/unmask should be allowed regardless if SMM is active,
   to support migration.

3. I did some refactoring in the code which updates the int_ctl in vmcb12
   on nested VM exit, and updated the patch 'KVM: nSVM: implement nested VNMI'
   to use this.

4. I added my reviewed-by to all the patches which I didn't change.

I only tested this on a machine which doesn't have vNMI, so this does need
some testing to ensure that nothing is broken.

Another thing I haven't looked at in depth yet is migration, I think there is a bug
because with vNMI, now in practise we can have 2 NMIs injected to the guest,
one in service, one 'pending injection' but no longer pending from KVM point of view,
and the KVM doesn't take this in account in kvm_vcpu_ioctl_x86_get_vcpu_events,a
and maybe more.

Best regards,
