Subject: [PATCH v4 19/19] KVM: VMX: Skip VMCLEAR logic during emergency reboots if CR4.VMXE=0
Date: Fri, 21 Jul 2023 13:18:59 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230721201859.2307736-20-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230721201859.2307736-1-seanjc@google.com>
Bail from vmx_emergency_disable() without processing the list of loaded
VMCSes if CR4.VMXE=0, i.e. if the CPU can't be post-VMXON. It should be
impossible for the list to have entries if VMX is already disabled, and
even if that invariant doesn't hold, VMCLEAR will #UD anyways, i.e.
processing the list is pointless even if it somehow isn't empty.
Assuming no existing KVM bugs, this should be a glorified nop. The
primary motivation for the change is to avoid having code that looks like
it does VMCLEAR, but then skips VMXON, which is nonsensical.
