[PATCH] KVM: VMX: Require KVM_SET_TSS_ADDR being called prior to running a VCPU

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

 



From: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Very old user space (namely qemu-kvm before kvm-49) didn't set the TSS
base before running the VCPU. We always warned about this bug, but no
reports about users actually seeing this are known. Time to finally
remove the workaround that effectively prevented to call vmx_vcpu_reset
while already holding the KVM srcu lock.

Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@xxxxxxxxxxx>

This obsoletes all other attempts to allow vmx_vcpu_reset to be called
with the srcu lock held. Hope we can settle the topic this way.
