      KVM: VMX: introduce vm_{entry,exit}_control_reset_shadow · 8391ce44
      Paolo Bonzini authored
      There is no reason to read the entry/exit control fields of the
      VMCS and immediately write back the same value.

      KVM: nVMX: keep preemption timer enabled during L2 execution · 9314006d
      Paolo Bonzini authored
      Because the vmcs12 preemption timer is emulated through a separate hrtimer,
      we can keep on using the preemption timer in the vmcs02 to emulare L1's
      TSC deadline timer.
      
      However, the corresponding bit in the pin-based execution control field
      must be kept consistent between vmcs01 and vmcs02.  On vmentry we copy
      it into the vmcs02; on vmexit the preemption timer must be disabled in
      the vmcs01 if a preemption timer vmexit happened while in guest mode.
      
      The preemption timer value in the vmcs02 is set by vmx_vcpu_run, so it
      need not be considered in prepare_vmcs02.

      KVM: nVMX: avoid incorrect preemption timer vmexit in nested guest · 55123e3c
      Wanpeng Li authored
      The preemption timer for nested VMX is emulated by hrtimer which is started on L2
      entry, stopped on L2 exit and evaluated via the check_nested_events hook. However,
      nested_vmx_exit_handled is always returning true for preemption timer vmexit.  Then,
      the L1 preemption timer vmexit is captured and be treated as a L2 preemption
      timer vmexit, causing NULL pointer dereferences or worse in the L1 guest's
      vmexit handler:

      This can be reproduced readily by preemption timer enabled on L0 and disabled
      on L1.
      
      Return false since preemption timer vmexits must never be reflected to L2.

      KVM: VMX: reflect broken preemption timer in vmcs_config · 1c17c3e6
      Paolo Bonzini authored
      Simplify cpu_has_vmx_preemption_timer.  This is consistent with the
      rest of setup_vmcs_config and preparatory for the next patch.
