Subject: [PATCH v5 18/26] KVM: nSVM: Add missing consistency check for hCR0.PG and NP_ENABLE
Date: Fri, 6 Feb 2026 19:08:43 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260206190851.860662-19-yosry.ahmed@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260206190851.860662-1-yosry.ahmed@linux.dev>
From the APM Volume #2, 15.25.3 (24593—Rev. 3.42—March 2024):
If VMRUN is executed with hCR0.PG cleared to zero and NP_ENABLE
set to 1 , VMRUN terminates with #VMEXIT(VMEXIT_INVALID).
Add the consistency check by plumbing L1's CR0 to
nested_vmcb_check_controls().
Fixes: 4b16184c1cca ("KVM: SVM: Initialize Nested Nested MMU context on VMRUN")
