Subject: [PATCH v3 01/13] KVM: nVMX: Make VMPTRLD result in #UD when eVMCS is used
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2026 16:39:07 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260826233919.998904-2-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260826233919.998904-1-seanjc@google.com>
From: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@redhat.com>
VMPTRLD with active eVMCS is already forbidden, however, returning 1
without skipping the instruction or queuing an exception will likely
result in L1 getting stuck. Genuine Hyper-V seems to inject #UD under
similar circumstances, mimic the behavior in KVM.
