[PATCH 6.1 722/885] KVM: SVM: Flush the "current" TLB when activating AVIC

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

 



From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 0ccf3e7cb95a2db8ddb2a44812037ffba8166dc9 upstream.

Flush the TLB when activating AVIC as the CPU can insert into the TLB
while AVIC is "locally" disabled.  KVM doesn't treat "APIC hardware
disabled" as VM-wide AVIC inhibition, and so when a vCPU has its APIC
hardware disabled, AVIC is not guaranteed to be inhibited.  As a result,
KVM may create a valid NPT mapping for the APIC base, which the CPU can
cache as a non-AVIC translation.

Note, Intel handles this in vmx_set_virtual_apic_mode().
