[PATCH 5/7] KVM: nVMX: Load nEPT state after EFER

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

 



From: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@xxxxxxxxxxx>

We need to update EFER.NX before building the nEPT state via
nested_ept_init_mmu_context. Otherwise, we risk to create an MMU context
that claims to have NX disabled while the guest EPT used NX. This will
cause spurious faults for L2.
