i Avi, we currently try to integrate this patch for an update into a 2.6.32 based system (amongst other kvm updates). But as soon as this patch gets added kvm will die on startup in kvm_leave_lazy_mmu. This has been documented here: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/531823 I have placed the backports of your patches, which are currently in linux-next and marked for stable here: git://kernel.ubuntu.com/smb/linux-2.6.32.y kvm I have tested the failure with a version that got only the following patches in: KVM: x86 emulator: Add Virtual-8086 mode of emulation KVM: x86 emulator: fix memory access during x86 emulation KVM: x86 emulator: Check IOPL level during io instruction emulation KVM: x86 emulator: Fix popf emulation KVM: x86 emulator: Check CPL level during privilege instruction emulation and also with a version that takes all stable patches up to the bad one: KVM: VMX: Trap and invalid MWAIT/MONITOR instruction KVM: x86 emulator: Add group8 instruction decoding KVM: x86 emulator: Add group9 instruction decoding KVM: x86 emulator: Add Virtual-8086 mode of emulation KVM: x86 emulator: fix memory access during x86 emulation But as soon as the fix for memory access gets added, the bug will occur. Would you have an idea what might be causing this?
