Subject: [PATCH v6 28/31] KVM: nSVM: Sanitize TLB_CONTROL field when copying from vmcb12
Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2026 22:34:02 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260224223405.3270433-29-yosry@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260224223405.3270433-1-yosry@kernel.org>
The APM defines possible values for TLB_CONTROL as 0, 1, 3, and 7 -- all
of which are always allowed for KVM guests as KVM always supports
X86_FEATURE_FLUSHBYASID. Only copy bits 0 to 2 from vmcb12's
TLB_CONTROL, such that no unhandled or reserved bits end up in vmcb02.
Note that TLB_CONTROL in vmcb12 is currently ignored by KVM, as it nukes
the TLB on nested transitions anyway (see
nested_svm_transition_tlb_flush()). However, such sanitization will be
needed once the TODOs there are addressed, and it's minimal churn to add
it now.
