Subject: [PATCH v6 0/8] KVM: VMX: Preserve host's DEBUGCTL.FREEZE_IN_SMM
Date: Tue, 10 Jun 2025 16:20:02 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250610232010.162191-1-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
Preserve the host's FREEZE_IN_SMM setting by stuffing GUEST_DEBUGCTL, so that
SMM activity doesn't bleed into PMU events while running the guest.
Along the way, enforce the supported set of DEBUGCTL bits when processing
vmcs12.GUEST_DEBUGCTL, as KVM can't rely on hardware to reject an MSR value
that is supported in hardware.
To minimize the probability of the nVMX fix breaking existing setups, allow
the guest to use DEBUGCTL.RTM_DEBUG if RTM is exposed to the guest.
v6:
- WARN in tdx_vcpu_run() if KVM requests DR6 load.
- Ignore unsupported-but-suppressed DEBUGCTL bits when doing consistency
check on vmcs12.
- Add support for DEBUGCTL.RTM_DEBUG.
- Use accessors in all paths.
- Add a dedicated vmx_reload_guest_debugctl().
