Date: Fri, 17 Jan 2014 20:52:42 +0100 From: Radim Krčmář <rkrcmar@...hat.com> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: kvm@...r.kernel.org, joro@...tes.org, pbonzini@...hat.com, stable@...r.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH] KVM: SVM: fix NMI window after iret We should open NMI window right after an iret, but SVM exits before it. We wanted to single step using the trap flag and then open it. (or we could emulate the iret instead) We don't do it since commit 3842d135ff2 (likely), because the iret exit handler does not request an event, so NMI window remains closed until the next exit. Fix this by making KVM_REQ_EVENT request in the iret handler. Signed-off-by: Radim Krčmář <rkrcmar@...hat.com> --- (btw. kvm-unit-tests weren't executed on SVM since Nov 2010, at least) arch/x86/kvm/svm.c | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/arch/x86/kvm/svm.c b/arch/x86/kvm/svm.c index c7168a5..b5a735b 100644 --- a/arch/x86/kvm/svm.c +++ b/arch/x86/kvm/svm.c @@ -2829,6 +2829,7 @@ static int iret_interception(struct vcpu_svm *svm) clr_intercept(svm, INTERCEPT_IRET); svm->vcpu.arch.hflags |= HF_IRET_MASK; svm->nmi_iret_rip = kvm_rip_read(&svm->vcpu); + kvm_make_request(KVM_REQ_EVENT, &svm->vcpu); return 1; } -- 1.8.5.2 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
