[RFC PATCH 07/22] KVM: nSVM: Nested #VMEXIT may transition from HALTED to RUNNABLE

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

 



From: Jim Mattson <jmattson@xxxxxxxxxx>

When a halted vCPU is awakened by a nested event, it might have been
the target of a previous KVM_HC_KICK_CPU hypercall, in which case
pv_unhalted would be set. This flag should be cleared before the next
HLT instruction, as kvm_vcpu_has_events() would otherwise return true
and prevent the vCPU from entering the halt state.

Use kvm_vcpu_make_runnable() to ensure consistent handling of the
HALTED to RUNNABLE state transition.

Fixes: 38c0b192bd6d ("KVM: SVM: leave halted state on vmexit")
