Subject: KVM: x86: fix singlestepping over syscall
From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit c8401dda2f0a00cd25c0af6a95ed50e478d25de4 upstream.
TF is handled a bit differently for syscall and sysret, compared
to the other instructions: TF is checked after the instruction completes,
so that the OS can disable #DB at a syscall by adding TF to FMASK.
When the sysret is executed the #DB is taken "as if" the syscall insn
just completed.
KVM emulates syscall so that it can trap 32-bit syscall on Intel processors.
Fix the behavior, otherwise you could get #DB on a user stack which is not
nice. This does not affect Linux guests, as they use an IST or task gate
for #DB.
This fixes CVE-2017-7518.
