Subject: [PATCH v3 00/13] KVM: nVMX: Adjust VMPTRLD/VMPTRST behavior with active eVMCS
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2026 16:39:06 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260826233919.998904-1-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
Vitaly's series to adjust KVM's emulation of VMPTRLD/VMPTRST when the vCPU
has an active eVMCS to match Hyper-V, and more importantly to not put the
vCPU into an infinite loop.
The patches from Vitaly remain the same from v2. The churn I piled on top
came from wanting to use KVM_ASM_SAFE() for more VMX instructions to verify
the RFLAGS bug+fix Sashiko pointed out, and I lack impulse control when it
comes to cleanups.
v3:
- See above.
v2:
- https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260818165258.2613603-1-vkuznets@redhat.com
- Fix build when !CONFIG_KVM_HYPERV [Sashiko]
- Drop now-unneeded evmcs_vmptrst() [Sashiko]
- Avoid hardcoding VMPTRLD insn length in hyperv_evmcs [Sashiko], use
KVM_ASM_SAFE framework instead [Sean]
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260814162221.2144473-1-vkuznets@redhat.com
Sean Christopherson (9):
KVM: selftests: Don't clobber RFLAGS in happy path of __KVM_ASM_SAFE()
KVM: selftests: Assert success in vmptrst(), kill off vmptrstz()
KVM: selftests: Always assert that vmxon() and
prepare_for_vmx_operation() succeed
KVM: selftests: Always assert that vmclear() succeeds
KVM: selftests: Always assert that vmptrld() succeeds
KVM: selftests: Drop useless return code from load_vmcs()
KVM: selftests: Add macros to handle simple VMX instructions
KVM: selftests: Dedup assembly code for VMLAUNCH and VMRESUME
KVM: selftests: Add and use double-underscore versions of vmlaunch()
and vmresume()
Vitaly Kuznetsov (4):
KVM: nVMX: Make VMPTRLD result in #UD when eVMCS is used
KVM: nVMX: Make VMPTRST return eVMCS GPA when it is used
KVM: selftests: Adapt to the updated VMPTRST behavior when eVMCS is
used
KVM: selftests: Check VMPTRLD with active eVMCS
