[PATCH 25/29] nVMX: Further fixes for lazy FPU loading

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

 



KVM's "Lazy FPU loading" means that sometimes L0 needs to set CR0.TS, even
if a guest didn't set it. Moreover, L0 must also trap CR0.TS changes and
NM exceptions, even if we have a guest hypervisor (L1) who didn't want these
traps. And of course, conversely: If L1 wanted to trap these events, we
must let it, even if L0 is not interested in them.

This patch fixes some existing KVM code (in update_exception_bitmap(),
vmx_fpu_activate(), vmx_fpu_deactivate()) to do the correct merging of L0's
and L1's needs. Note that handle_cr() was already fixed in the above patch,
and that new code in introduced in previous patches already handles CR0
correctly (see prepare_vmcs02(), prepare_vmcs12(), and nested_vmx_vmexit()).
