Subject: [PATCH v2 9/9] KVM: SEV: Mark vCPU has having guest-provided VMSA even if its invalid
Date: Fri, 26 Jun 2026 16:14:16 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260626231416.3943216-10-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260626231416.3943216-1-seanjc@google.com>

Track the guest as having a guest-provided VMSA as soon as control.vmsa_pa
is invalidated, instead of waiting to see if the guest-provided VMSA is
usable, so that KVM doesn't switch back to the original VMSA instead of
exiting to userspace (due to an invalid VMSA).  By the time a vCPU tries
to load a guest-provided VMSA, KVM has already communicated "success" for
AP creation, i.e. KVM has committed to using the guest-provided VMSA.
