Subject: [PATCH v3 0/2] KVM: SVM: Fix a bug where TSC_AUX can get clobbered
Date: Tue, 23 Sep 2025 08:37:36 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250923153738.1875174-1-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
Fix a bug where an SEV-ES vCPU running on the same pCPU as a non-SEV-ES vCPU
could clobber TSC_AUX due to loading the host's TSC_AUX on #VMEXIT, as opposed
to restoring whatever was in hardware at the time of VMRUN.
v3:
- Collect reviews. [Xiaoyao]
- Make tsc_aux_uret_slot globally visible instead of passing it as a param.
[Xiaoyao]
- Mark tsc_aux_uret_slot __ro_after_init.
v2:
- https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250919213806.1582673-1-seanjc@google.com
- Drop "cache" from the user_return API.
- Handle the SEV-ES case in SEV-ES code.
- Tag everything for stable@.
- Massage changelog to avoid talking about the host's value and instead
focus on failing to restore what KVM thinks is in hardware.
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/05a018a6997407080b3b7921ba692aa69a720f07.1758166596.git.houwenlong.hwl@antgroup.com
