[PATCH v2] KVM: X86: Grab KVM's srcu lock when accessing hv assist page

[PATCH v2] KVM: X86: Grab KVM's srcu lock when accessing hv assist page

[Wanpeng Li]

From: wanpeng li <wanpengli@tencent.com>

For the duration of mapping eVMCS, it derefences ->memslots without holding
->srcu or ->slots_lock when accessing hv assist page. This patch fixes it by
moving nested_sync_vmcs12_to_shadow to prepare_guest_switch, where the SRCU
is already taken.

It can be reproduced by running kvm's evmcs_test selftest.

Looks good, but I'd like an extra review from Sean or Vitaly.

We also should add a WARN_ON_ONCE that replaces the previous location of
the "if (vmx->nested.need_vmcs12_to_shadow_sync)", but I can do that myself.

Thanks,

Paolo

Re: [PATCH v2] KVM: X86: Grab KVM's srcu lock when accessing hv assist page

[Sean Christopherson]

The subject shoud be rewritten to simply states that the vmcs12->shadow
sync is being.  The changelog can explain the motiviation, but a one-line
git log should clearly reveal that this affects the shadow VMCS.

Subsystem should also be "KVM: nVMX:"

This needs to be above the short circuit check on guest_state_loaded, e.g.:

	if (vmx->nested.need_vmcs12_to_shadow_sync)
		nested_sync_vmcs12_to_shadow(vcpu);

	if (vmx->guest_state_loaded)
		return;

Agreed, do it in new version.
