Subject: [PATCH v2 0/4] Emulate VMXON region correctly
Date: Tue,  6 May 2014 02:19:14 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1399357158-8305-1-git-send-email-bsd@redhat.com> (raw)

Reference: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54521

The vmxon region is unused by nvmx, but adding these checks
are probably harmless and may detect buggy L1 hypervisors in 
the future!

v2:
1/4
  - Commit message change to reflect addition of new function
2/4
  - Use cpuid_maxphyaddr()
  - Fix a leak with kunmap()
  - Remove unnecessary braces around comparisions
  - Move all checks into a common function, this will be later
    used by handle_vmptrld and handle_vmclear in 4/4
4/4
  - New patch - use common function to perform checks on
    vmptr

Bandan Das (4):
  KVM: nVMX: rearrange get_vmx_mem_address
  KVM: nVMX: additional checks on vmxon region
  KVM: nVMX: fail on invalid vmclear/vmptrld pointer
  KVM: nVMX: move vmclear and vmptrld pre-checks to
    nested_vmx_check_vmptr
