Subject: [PATCH 5/7] KVM: SVM: Support FRED nested exception injection
Date: Thu, 29 Jan 2026 06:36:51 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260129063653.3553076-6-shivansh.dhiman@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260129063653.3553076-1-shivansh.dhiman@amd.com>
From: Neeraj Upadhyay <Neeraj.Upadhyay@amd.com>
Set the SVM nested exception bit in EVENT_INJECTION_CTL when
injecting a nested exception using FRED event delivery to
ensure:
1) A nested exception is injected on a correct stack level.
2) The nested bit defined in FRED stack frame is set.
The event stack level used by FRED event delivery depends on whether
the event was a nested exception encountered during delivery of an
earlier event, because a nested exception is "regarded" as happening
on ring 0. E.g., when #PF is configured to use stack level 1 in
IA32_FRED_STKLVLS MSR:
- nested #PF will be delivered on the stack pointed by FRED_RSP1
MSR when encountered in ring 3 and ring 0.
- normal #PF will be delivered on the stack pointed by FRED_RSP0
MSR when encountered in ring 3.
The SVM nested-exception support ensures a correct event stack level is
chosen when a VM entry injects a nested exception.
