Subject: [PATCH 2/2] KVM: nVMX: Do not report error code when synthesizing VM-Exit from Real Mode
Date: Wed, 22 Mar 2023 07:33:00 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230322143300.2209476-3-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230322143300.2209476-1-seanjc@google.com>

Don't report an error code to L1 when synthesizing a nested VM-Exit and
L2 is in Real Mode.  Per Intel's SDM, regarding the error code valid bit:

  This bit is always 0 if the VM exit occurred while the logical processor
  was in real-address mode (CR0.PE=0).

The bug was introduced by a recent fix for AMD's Paged Real Mode, which
moved the error code suppression from the common "queue exception" path
to the "inject exception" path, but missed VMX's "synthesize VM-Exit"
path.

Fixes: b97f07458373 ("KVM: x86: determine if an exception has an error code only when injecting it.")
