Subject: [PATCH] KVM: nVMX: mask unrestricted_guest if disabled on L0
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
If EPT was enabled, unrestricted_guest was allowed in L1 regardless of
L0. L1 triple faulted when running L2 guest that required emulation.
Another side effect was 'WARN_ON_ONCE(vmx->nested.nested_run_pending)'
in L0's dmesg:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c:9190 nested_vmx_vmexit+0x96e/0xb00 [kvm_intel] ()
Prevent this scenario by masking SECONDARY_EXEC_UNRESTRICTED_GUEST when
the host doesn't have it enabled.
Fixes: 78051e3b7e35 ("KVM: nVMX: Disable unrestricted mode if ept=0")
