Hi,
Note that I haven't included a fix for HOST_RIP. I did today a bare metal check
and indeed the microcode does check CR4.LA57, the one that is stored in the vmcs
as you suspected.
I add a patch to this patch series with this mostly theoretical fix, when I send a new revision.
Second thing, I kept the canonical check on 'vmcs12->guest_bndcfgs because Intel
deprecated this feature and none of CPUs which support 5 level paging support MPX.
Also I think that since this is a guest state field, it might be possible to just
remove the check, because the value of this field is copied to vmcs02 and the
CPU's microcode should do the same check that KVM does.
Best regards,
Maxim Levitsky
