Subject: [PATCH v4 0/3] Expose VMFUNC to the nested hypervisor
Date: Mon, 10 Jul 2017 16:49:33 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170710204936.4001-1-bsd@redhat.com> (raw)

v4:
 2/3:  Use WARN_ONCE to avoid logging dos

v3:
 https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/7/10/684
 3/3: Add missing nested_release_page_clean() and check the
 eptp as mentioned in SDM 24.6.14
 
v2:
 https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/7/6/813
 1/3: Patch to enable vmfunc on the host but cause a #UD if
      L1 tries to use it directly. (new)
 2/3: Expose vmfunc to the nested hypervisor, but no vm functions
      are exposed and L0 emulates a vmfunc vmexit to L1. 
 3/3: Force a vmfunc vmexit when L2 tries to use vmfunc and emulate
      eptp switching. Unconditionally expose EPTP switching to the
      L1 hypervisor since L0 fakes eptp switching via a mmu reload.

These patches expose eptp switching/vmfunc to the nested hypervisor.
vmfunc is enabled in the secondary controls for the host and is
exposed to the nested hypervisor. However, if the nested hypervisor
decides to use eptp switching, L0 emulates it.

v1:
 https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/6/29/958
