[PATCH] KVM: x86/mmu: Precisely invalidate MMU root_role during CPUID update

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

 



Set kvm_mmu_page_role.invalid to mark the various MMU root_roles invalid
during CPUID update in order to force a refresh, instead of zeroing out
the entire role.  This fixes a bug where kvm_mmu_free_roots() incorrectly
thinks a root is indirect, i.e. not a TDP MMU, due to "direct" being
zeroed, which in turn causes KVM to take mmu_lock for write instead of
read.

Note, paving over the entire role was largely unintentional, commit
7a458f0e1ba1 ("KVM: x86/mmu: remove extended bits from mmu_role, rename
field") simply missed that "invalid" could be set.

Fixes: 576a15de8d29 ("KVM: x86/mmu: Free TDP MMU roots while holding mmy_lock for read")
