The Hyper-V synthetic interrupt controller is activated, resulting in a wrong request to rescan the ioapic and a NULL pointer dereference. #include <sys/ioctl.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <linux/kvm.h> #include <pthread.h> #include <stddef.h> #include <stdint.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <string.h> #include <unistd.h> #ifndef KVM_CAP_HYPERV_SYNIC #define KVM_CAP_HYPERV_SYNIC 123 #endif void* thr(void* arg) { struct kvm_enable_cap cap; cap.flags = 0; cap.cap = KVM_CAP_HYPERV_SYNIC; ioctl((long)arg, KVM_ENABLE_CAP, &cap); return 0; } int main() { void *host_mem = mmap(0, 0x1000, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0); int kvmfd = open("/dev/kvm", 0); int vmfd = ioctl(kvmfd, KVM_CREATE_VM, 0); struct kvm_userspace_memory_region memreg; memreg.slot = 0; memreg.flags = 0; memreg.guest_phys_addr = 0; memreg.memory_size = 0x1000; memreg.userspace_addr = (unsigned long)host_mem; host_mem[0] = 0xf4; ioctl(vmfd, KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION, &memreg); int cpufd = ioctl(vmfd, KVM_CREATE_VCPU, 0); struct kvm_sregs sregs; ioctl(cpufd, KVM_GET_SREGS, &sregs); sregs.cr0 = 0; sregs.cr4 = 0; sregs.efer = 0; sregs.cs.selector = 0; sregs.cs.base = 0; ioctl(cpufd, KVM_SET_SREGS, &sregs); struct kvm_regs regs = { .rflags = 2 }; ioctl(cpufd, KVM_SET_REGS, ®s); ioctl(vmfd, KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, 0); pthread_t th; pthread_create(&th, 0, thr, (void*)(long)cpufd); usleep(rand() % 10000); ioctl(cpufd, KVM_RUN, 0); pthread_join(th, 0); return 0; } This patch fixes it by failing ENABLE_CAP if without an irqchip.
