47 hoursKVM: SVM: Update x2APIC MSR intercepts if AVIC is inhibited while L2 is activeSean Christopherson
Always update x2APIC MSR intercepts for L1 when AVIC is deactivated, even if L2 is active and KVM is using a separate MSR bitmap to run L2. If AVIC is fully enabled prior to running L2, and is then inhibited while L2 is active (for a VM-scoped inhibit), then KVM will run L1 with AVIC disabled, but with x2APIC MSR intercepts disabled, i.e. will allow L1 to read most of the host's APIC state, send arbitrary interrupts, change task priority, and ultimately trivially DoS the host. E.g. sending a self-IPI in L1 on HYPERV_REENLIGHTENMENT_VECTOR, 0xee, with CONFIG_HYPERV=n in the host kernel as a "safe" PoC, yields: Spurious interrupt (vector 0xee) on CPU#425. Acked And hacking KVM to abuse kvm_set_posted_intr_wakeup_handler() to register a handler and WARN on POSTED_INTR_WAKEUP_VECTOR yields: ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: arch/x86/kvm/svm/svm.c:5594 at pi_wakeup_handler+0x9/0x10 [kvm_amd], CPU#156: nested_x2apic_t/316940 CPU: 156 UID: 0 PID: 316940 Comm: nested_x2apic_t Tainted: G S U Tainted: [S]=CPU_OUT_OF_SPEC, [U]=USER Hardware name: Google Astoria-Turin/astoria, BIOS 0.20260209.0-0 02/09/2026 RIP: 0010:pi_wakeup_handler+0x9/0x10 [kvm_amd] Call Trace: <IRQ> sysvec_kvm_posted_intr_wakeup_ipi+0x64/0x80 </IRQ> <TASK> asm_sysvec_kvm_posted_intr_wakeup_ipi+0x1a/0x20 RIP: 0010:vcpu_run+0x1430/0x1e40 [kvm] kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run+0x2c1/0x600 [kvm] kvm_vcpu_ioctl+0x580/0x6b0 [kvm] __se_sys_ioctl+0x6d/0xb0 do_syscall_64+0x10a/0x480 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x4b/0x53 RIP: 0033:0x46ff4b </TASK> ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]--- Fixes: 091abbf578f9 ("KVM: x86: nSVM: optimize svm_set_x2apic_msr_interception") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Cc: Yosry Ahmed <yosry@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260729213558.639074-1-pbonzini@redhat.com/ Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

mmu_try_to_unsync_pages() skips the shadow-page lookup when the supplied memslot allows a hugepage, because a shadow page would disallow hugepages. But hugepage metadata is per-address-space while shadow pages are shared across all address spaces. With SMM, the other address space can therefore have a shadow page even when the supplied memslot allows a hugepage. Check the corresponding memslot in the other address space before taking the fast path. Skip the shadow-page lookup only when all address spaces allow a hugepage.

kvm_gfn_is_write_tracked() checks only the supplied memslot, but page tracking is per-address-space and shadow pages are shared across all address spaces. With SMM, a GFN can therefore be write-tracked in one address space and appear untracked through the other. Check the supplied slot first, then the slot for the other address space. This ensures all callers honor write tracking regardless of the active address space. In particular, it prevents mmu_try_to_unsync_pages() from marking an upper-level shadow page unsync and eventually triggering the BUG in pte_list_remove().

3 daysKVM: x86: Cancel delayed I/O APIC EOI handling before destroying vCPUsWeiming Shi
Cancel (and flush) the I/O APIC's delayed EOI handling work during the "pre VM destroy" phase, before vCPUs are destroyed, as processing the EOI broadcast will inject another IRQ if the line is asserted, i.e. will try to deliver an IRQ to the target vCPU(s). Canceling the work after vCPUs are destroyed leads to UAF if the delayed work is processed after vCPUs are destroyed.

E.g. attempting to free the PIC during the pre phase would lead to a NULL pointer dereference in kvm_cpu_has_extint(), and it's not hard to imagine the I/O APIC having a similar flaw.

3 daysKVM: VMX: add memory clobber to asm for VMX instructionsPaolo Bonzini
VMCLEAR/VMREAD/VMWRITE/VMPTRLD access the internal VMCS cache, which is not visible to the compiler; without a memory clobber, the compiler can reorder them in troublesome ways because "asm volatile" and "asm goto" only protect against removal of the asm. For example, placing a VMWRITE before the corresponding VMCS pointer is loaded can lead to corruption. While none of this has been observed, it is better to prevent than cure. Likewise, INVEPT and INVVPID access the TLB and, even though in their case the effect is only visible to the next VMLAUNCH/VMRESUME, it is technically correct to add the clobber there too. So avoid any urge to special case them, and simply hardcode "memory" into the clobber list of vmx_asm1() and vmx_asm2(). __vmcs_readl() open-codes its own asm, so add the clobber there as well.

After a recent upstream LLVM change to start generating jump and lookup tables in switch statements in more instances [1], linking the compressed x86 boot image when CONFIG_KERNEL_ZSTD is enabled fails with: ld.lld: error: Unexpected run-time relocations (.rela) detected! Dumping the relocations in misc.o, which is the only file influenced by CONFIG_KERNEL_ZSTD in the decompressor, shows dynamic relocations to some string constants, which correspond to the string literals in the switch statement in handle_zstd_error(): Relocation section '.rela.data.rel.ro' at offset 0x277b0 contains 31 entries: Offset Info Type Symbol's Value Symbol's Name + Addend 0000000000000000 0000006600000001 R_X86_64_64 0000000000000000 .rodata.str1.1 + 73a 0000000000000008 0000006600000001 R_X86_64_64 0000000000000000 .rodata.str1.1 + 78e 0000000000000010 0000006600000001 R_X86_64_64 0000000000000000 .rodata.str1.1 + 78e 0000000000000018 0000006600000001 R_X86_64_64 0000000000000000 .rodata.str1.1 + 78e ... This optimization is problematic for the decompressor environment, as it is built as -fPIE without any explicit absolute references (as described at the top of misc.c) while not applying any dynamic relocations, hence the linker assertion. To opt out of this optimization, which is of little value in this special early boot code, and to mirror the other x86 startup code in arch/x86/boot/startup, disable jump tables in the decompressor.

10 daysKVM: x86: Only reset TSC Deadline Timer in apic_timer_expired on KVM_RUNVenkatesh Srinivas
On Intel platforms with a VMX preemption timer and APICv, if a VMM calls KVM_GET_LAPIC before KVM_GET_MSRS to save the vCPU state, it is possible to lose a pending timer interrupt. If the thread running these ioctls is migrated to another core after calling KVM_GET_LAPIC but before KVM_GET_MSRS and the guest is using their LAPIC timer in TSC-deadline mode, not only does the save LAPIC state not carry the pending interrupt, the TSCDEADLINE MSR will be zeroed. After migration across CPUs, KVM_GET_MSRS calls vcpu_load, posting the interrupt and clearing the MSR: vcpu_load() -> kvm_arch_vcpu_load() -> kvm_lapic_restart_hv_timer() -> start_hv_timer() -> apic_timer_expired() -> kvm_apic_inject_pending_timer_irqs() . post interrupt into the LAPIC state . clear IA32_TSCDEADLINE The saved LAPIC state will be missing the pending interrupt and the saved MSR will be zero. Oops. Fix by only posting an interrupt when we're attempting to enter the guest (vcpu->wants_to_run == true), not for vcpu_load from other paths.

10 daysKVM: x86/mmu: Fix use-after-free on vendor module reloadPhil Rosenthal
mmu_destroy_caches() destroys pte_list_desc_cache and mmu_page_header_cache, but leaves both pointers unchanged. The pointers live in kvm.ko, and therefore survive when a vendor module is unloaded while kvm.ko remains loaded. If creation of pte_list_desc_cache fails during a subsequent vendor module load, its assignment sets pte_list_desc_cache to NULL and the error path calls mmu_destroy_caches(). mmu_page_header_cache still points to the cache destroyed during the preceding vendor module unload. Passing that stale pointer to kmem_cache_destroy() causes a slab use-after-free. Reproduce the issue on a v7.1.3 kernel with CONFIG_KASAN=y, CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC=y, CONFIG_KVM=m, and CONFIG_KVM_INTEL=m. A one-shot test hook forces pte_list_desc_cache to NULL on the second invocation of kvm_mmu_vendor_module_init(): 1. Load kvm.ko and kvm-intel.ko, creating both caches. 2. Unload only kvm_intel, leaving kvm.ko loaded. 3. Reload kvm_intel and force initialization through the -ENOMEM path.

10 daysKVM: x86/mmu: Preserve nested TDP shadow page tables if they are used as rootsHyunwoo Kim
kvm_mmu_zap_oldest_mmu_pages() excludes a shadow page whose root_count is non-zero from top-level reclaim, because such a page cannot be freed. The path in mmu_page_zap_pte() that recursively zaps a parentless nested TDP child has no such check. As a result, a shadow page can be zapped even if the page itself can't be freed; as the comment in kvm_mmu_zap_oldest_mmu_pages() notes, zapping it will just force vCPUs to rebuild the page. As in top-level reclaim, do not recursively prepare zapping of a nested TDP child whose root_count is non-zero.

10 daysKVM: x86: Check for invalid/obsolete root *after* making MMU pages availableSean Christopherson
Check for a "stale" page fault, i.e. for an invalid and/or obsolete root, after making MMU pages available for the shadow MMU. If reclaiming shadow pages zaps an in-use root, i.e. marks it invalid, then KVM will attempt to map memory into an invalid root. On its own, populating an invalid root is "fine", but because child shadow pages inherit their parent's role, any children created during the map/fetch will be created as invalid pages, thus violating KVM's invariant that invalid pages are never on the list of active MMU pages. Note, the underlying flaw has existed since KVM first started tracking invalid roots in 2008 (commit 2e53d63acba7, "KVM: MMU: ignore zapped root pagetables"), but the true badness only came along in 2020 (Linux 5.9) with the invariant that invalid shadow pages can't be on the list of active pages. Note #2, inheriting role.invalid when creating child shadow pages is also far from ideal; that flaw will be addressed separately.

2026-07-16KVM: SVM: Bump asid_generation on CPU online to avoid ASID collision after ↵Nikunj A Dadhania
hotplug If a vCPU stays scheduled out (or blocked) while the last pCPU it ran on goes through a hotplug cycle (online->offline->online), and the vCPU then resumes execution on the same pCPU, then it is possible for it to run with an ASID that has now been assigned to a different vCPU, resulting in stale TLB translations being used. svm_enable_virtualization_cpu() resets asid_generation to 1 and sets next_asid to max_asid + 1 on every CPU online event, including hotplug cycles. Because next_asid starts beyond the pool boundary, the first call to new_asid() after an online event always wraps the pool, incrementing asid_generation to 2 and assigning ASIDs starting from min_asid. Consider two vCPUs from different VMs, vCPU-A pinned to CPU-X holding asid_generation=2 and ASID=N from before the hotplug event: 1. CPU-X goes offline and back online: asid_generation resets to 1, next_asid = max_asid + 1. 2. One or more vCPUs migrate to CPU-X and call new_asid(), wrapping the pool and consuming ASIDs starting from min_asid. Eventually vCPU-B from a different VM is assigned asid_generation=2, ASID=N — the same ASID that vCPU-A held before the hotplug. 3. vCPU-A enters pre_svm_run() on CPU-X: current_vmcb->cpu is unchanged so the migration branch is skipped. Its saved asid_generation=2 matches sd->asid_generation=2, so the generation check silently passes and vCPU-A continues running with ASID=N — the same ASID just freshly assigned to vCPU-B. Both vCPUs from different VMs now run on CPU-X with the same ASID, causing them to share NPT TLB entries and producing stale translations. The collision manifests as a KVM internal error (Suberror: 1, emulation failure). The NPT page fault reports a faulting GPA far outside the VM's physical memory range — a sign of stale TLB translations being used. KVM falls back to instruction emulation, which fails on FPU/XSave instructions (XRSTOR, STMXCSR) that the emulator does not implement. Fix this by incrementing asid_generation instead of resetting it to 1 in svm_enable_virtualization_cpu(). On module load, asid_generation starts at 0 (memset) and the increment produces 1, identical to the old behaviour. On subsequent hotplug cycles the generation advances beyond any value a vCPU previously observed on this CPU, so the generation check in pre_svm_run() reliably forces new_asid() on every vCPU after every hotplug cycle.

2026-07-15KVM: nVMX: Put vmcs12 pages if nested VM-Enter fails due to invalid guest stateSean Christopherson
Put all vmcs12 pages if KVM synthesizes a nested VM-Exit due to invalid guest while emulating VMLAUNCH or VMRESUME. The invalid guest state path doesn't use nested_vmx_vmexit() as that API is intended to be used if and only if L2 is active, and the open coded equivalent neglects to put the vmcs12 pages. Failure to put the vmcs12 pages leaks any pinned pages (and/or mappings) if L1 retries VMLAUNCH/VMRESUME. Note, the !from_vmenter scenario doesn't suffer the same problem, as vmx_get_nested_state_pages() only gets/pins/maps the vmcs12 pages if L2 is active, i.e. if a "full" VM-Exit is guaranteed before KVM will retry getting vmcs12 pages.

When the baud rate is empty, 0, invalid, or overflows to 0 when stored as an int, the system will hang during early boot because of a division by zero in early_serial_init().

2026-07-13KVM: x86: Fix null pointer deref due to dummy array in trace_kvm_inj_exception()Daniel Paziyski
The trace_kvm_inj_exception tracepoint takes as arguments the exception vector, whether the exception has an error code (and subsequently, the error code), and whether it is being reinjected. Because '0' is a valid error code, KVM uses __print_symbolic() to format the error code as a string to avoid printing the error code entirely if the exception doesn't have an error code (see commit 21d4c575eb4a ("KVM: x86: Print error code in exception injection tracepoint iff valid"). KVM's abuse of __print_symbolic() was all fine and dandy, until commit 754e38d2d1ae ("tracing: Use explicit array size instead of sentinel elements in symbol printing") reworked the printing to avoid terminating the arrays with NULL/0 values, and missed KVM's clever use of not-quite empty array of symbols.

A user-only branch stack can contain branches that originate from the kernel. As a result, kernel addresses are exposed to user space even when PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_USER is requested. On AMD processors supporting X86_FEATURE_BRS (Zen 3 only), perf can still report entries such as SYSRET/interrupt returns for which the branch-from addresses are in the kernel. E.g. $ perf record -j any,u -c 4000 -e branch-brs -o - -- \ perf bench syscall basic --loop 1000 | \ perf script -i - -F brstack|tr ' ' '\n'| \ grep -E '0x[89a-f][0-9a-f]{15}' ... 0xffffffff810001c4/0x72e2e32955eb/-/-/-/0//- 0xffffffff810001c4/0x72e2d94a9821/-/-/-/0//- 0xffffffff810001c4/0x72e2d94ffa1b/-/-/-/0//- ... BRS provides no hardware branch filtering, so privilege level filtering is performed entirely in software. However, amd_brs_match_plm() only validates the branch-to address against the requested privilege levels. For branches from the kernel to user space, the branch-from address is left unchecked and is leaked. Extend the software filter to also validate the branch-from address, so that any branch record whose branch-from address is in the kernel is dropped when PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_USER is requested.

Reject KVM_TDX_INIT_VM if userspace changes cpuid.nent between the initial read and the subsequent copy of the initialization data. tdx_td_init() first reads user_data->cpuid.nent to size the flexible kvm_tdx_init_vm copy. The copied structure also contains cpuid.nent, and that field can differ from the value used to size the allocation if userspace modifies the input concurrently. setup_tdparams_cpuids() later passes init_vm->cpuid.nent to kvm_find_cpuid_entry2(), which uses it as the array bound for the copied entries. Require the copied count to match the value used to size the allocation so that CPUID parsing cannot access beyond the entries actually copied.

Add a dedicated field in "struct nested_vmx" to track L1's pre-VM-Enter CR3 instead of using vmcs01.GUEST_CR3, which isn't anywhere near as safe as the comment purports it to be. E.g. in addition to the warn_on_missed_cc bug (that was fixed by relocating the consistency check), if getting vmcs12 pages (during actual nested VM-Entry) fails and EPT is disabled (in KVM), KVM will return control to userspace with vmcs01.GUEST_CR3 holding a guest- controlled value. Alternatively, KVM could force a reload of vmcs01.GUEST_CR3 by resetting the MMU context in the error path, but as above, the safety of the vmcs01 approach is extremely questionable, e.g. it took all of ~4 months for the code to break.

2026-07-08KVM: nVMX: Move vTPR vs. TPR Threshold consistency check into "normal" checksSean Christopherson
Move the off-by-default consistency check for vmcs12.tpr_threshold vs. the virtual APIC vTPR into the "normal" controls checks, as waiting until KVM has loaded some amount of state is unnecessary and actively dangerous. Specifically, failure to unwind vmcs01.GUEST_CR3 to KVM's value when EPT is disabled results in KVM running L1 with an L1-controlled CR3, not with KVM's CR3! Alternatively, KVM could simply reset the MMU to force a reload of vmcs01.GUEST_CR3, but the _only_ reason the check was shoved into a "late" flow was to wait until the vmcs12 pages were retrieved. Rather than build up more crusty code, simply access vTPR using a regular guest memory access (performance isn't a concern). To circumvent the restrictions that led to KVM deferring nested_get_vmcs12_pages(), (a) use a VM-scoped API to read guest memory so that it always hits non-SMM memslots (for RSM), and (b) skip the check (since its off-by-default anyways) when the vCPU doesn't want to run, i.e. when userspace is restoring/stuffing state. If reading guest memory fails, simply skip the consistency check, as KVM's de facto ABI is that VMX instruction accesses to non-existent memory get PCI Bus Error semantics, where reads return 0xFFs. And if vTPR=0xFF, then the vTPR is guaranteed to be greater than or equal to TPR_THRESHOLD.

2026-07-08perf/x86/amd/core: Avoid enabling BRS from the SVM reload pathSandipan Das
Branch Sampling (BRS) and Last Branch Record (LBR) are mutually exclusive hardware features, and users of both are tracked via cpuc->lbr_users. When SVM is toggled on a CPU, the host perf events are reprogrammed to update the HostOnly filter bit (set when virtualization is enabled, cleared when it is disabled). On PerfMonV2-capable processors, this reprogramming is performed by calling amd_pmu_enable_all() to rewrite the event selectors. However, amd_pmu_enable_all() also calls amd_brs_enable_all(), which enables BRS whenever cpuc->lbr_users > 0. Having active LBR events satisfies this gating on processors that have LBR but not BRS. The kernel then tries to set the BRS enable bit in DebugExtnCfg (MSR 0xc000010f). Since that bit is deprecated on such hardware, the write results in a #GP: Call Trace: <IRQ> amd_pmu_enable_all+0x1d/0x90 amd_pmu_disable_virt+0x62/0xb0 kvm_arch_disable_virtualization_cpu+0xa/0x40 [kvm] hardware_disable_nolock+0x1a/0x30 [kvm] __flush_smp_call_function_queue+0x9b/0x410 __sysvec_call_function+0x18/0xc0 sysvec_call_function+0x69/0x90 </IRQ> <TASK> asm_sysvec_call_function+0x16/0x20 RIP: 0010:cpuidle_enter_state+0xc4/0x450 ? cpuidle_enter_state+0xb7/0x450 cpuidle_enter+0x29/0x40 cpuidle_idle_call+0xf5/0x160 do_idle+0x7b/0xe0 cpu_startup_entry+0x26/0x30 start_secondary+0x115/0x140 secondary_startup_64_no_verify+0x194/0x19b </TASK> Fix this by ensuring that BRS is not enabled from the event selector reprogramming path even when cpuc->lbr_users > 0.

Revert 99cf1fb58e68 ("x86/virt/sev: Drop WBINVD before setting MSR_AMD64_SYSCFG_SNP_EN"). Section 8.8 of the SNP spec says: Before invoking SNP_INIT_EX with INIT_RMP set to 1, software must ensure that no CPUs contain dirty cache lines for the memory containing the RMP. Cachelines can be moved from cache to cache in a dirty state. The wbinvd_on_all_cpus() before SNP_INIT_EX flushes the caches for each CPU, but if the IPIs for WBINVD race with this dirty cacheline movement, it is possible that they may not get flushed, violating the firmware requirement. Doing wbinvd_on_all_cpus() before setting SNPEn is safer since the RMP table is not yet in use.

Some multi GPU systems may have a VGA compatible device, but that might not be used for display. If due to enumeration order this device is found before the one actually used for display then multiple devices may show the boot_display attribute, confusing userspace. When screen info is valid, use it exclusively to find the primary device so that only the device backing the framebuffer is reported. Only when no framebuffer has been set up does it make sense to fall back to the default VGA device. This ensures at most one primary graphics device, preferably the one with the framebuffer.

2026-07-01x86,fs/resctrl: Prevent out-of-bounds access while offlining CPU when SNC ↵Reinette Chatre
enabled The architecture updates the cpu_mask in a domain's header to track which online CPUs are associated with the domain. When this mask becomes empty the architecture initiates offline of the domain that includes calling on resctrl fs to offline the domain. If it is a monitoring domain in which LLC occupancy is tracked resctrl fs forces the limbo handler to clear all busy RMID state associated with the domain. The limbo handler always reads the current event value associated with a busy RMID irrespective of it being checked as part of regular "is it still busy" check or whether it will be forced released anyway. When reading an RMID on a system with SNC enabled the "logical RMID" is converted to the "physical RMID" and this conversion requires the NUMA node ID of the resctrl monitoring domain that is in turn determined by querying the NUMA node ID of any CPU belonging to the monitoring domain. When the monitoring domain is going offline its cpu_mask is empty causing the NUMA node ID query via cpu_to_node() to be done with "nr_cpu_ids" as argument resulting in an out-of-bounds access. Refactor the limbo handler to skip reading the RMID when the RMID will just be forced to no longer be dirty in the domain anyway. Add a safety check to the architecture's RMID reader to protect against this scenario.

2026-07-01bpf: Restrict JIT predictor flush to cBPFPawan Gupta
Currently predictor flush on memory reuse is done for all BPF JIT allocations, but only cBPF programs can be loaded by an unprivileged user. eBPF is privileged by default, and flushing predictors for all CPUs on every eBPF reuse penalizes the common case for no security benefit. eBPF allocations can be frequent on busy systems, only flush predictors for cBPF programs. Trampoline and dispatcher allocations also skip the flush as they are eBPF-only.

2026-06-24x86/apic: KVM: Use cpu_physical_id() to get APIC ID of running vCPU for AVICSean Christopherson
Use cpu_physical_id() instead of default_cpu_present_to_apicid() when getting the APIC ID of the pCPU on which a vCPU is running/loaded, as the kernel has gone way off the rails if a vCPU is loaded on a pCPU that has been physically removed from the system. Even if the impossible were to happen, the absolutely worst case scenario is that hardware will ring the AIVC doorbell on the wrong pCPU, i.e. a severely broken system will experience mild performance issues. Kill off KVM's superfluous kvm_cpu_get_apicid() wrapper along with the for-KVM export of default_cpu_present_to_apicid(), as they existed purely for the wonky AVIC usage.

2026-06-24KVM: x86/mmu: Expose number of shadow MMU shadow pages as a statSean Christopherson
Turn arch.n_used_mmu_pages into a stat, mmu_shadow_pages, as the number of live shadow pages is arguably _the_ most critical datapoint when it comes to analyzing the shadow MMU. Before the TDP MMU came along, i.e. when the shadow MMU was the only MMU, explicitly tracking the number of shadow pages wasn't as interesting, because the same information could more or less be gleaned from the pages_{1g,2m,4k} stats. But with the TDP MMU, where the shadow MMU is only used for nested TDP, it becomes extremely difficult, if not impossible, to determine which SPTEs are coming from the TDP MMU, and which are coming from the shadow MMU. E.g. when triaging/debugging shadow MMU performance issues due to "too many shadow pages", being able to observe that 99%+ of all shadow pages are unsync is critical to being able to deduce that KVM is effectively leaking shadow pages.

2026-06-24KVM: x86: Unconditionally recompute CR8 intercept on PPR updateCarlos López
The TPR_THRESHOLD field in the VMCS is used by VMX to induce VM exits when the guest's virtual TPR falls under the specified threshold, allowing KVM to inject previously masked interrupts. KVM handles these VM exits in handle_tpr_below_threshold(). Commit eb90f3417a0c ("KVM: vmx: speed up TPR below threshold vmexits") optimized this function by calling apic_update_ppr() instead of raising KVM_REQ_EVENT. apic_update_ppr() then raises KVM_REQ_EVENT if there is a pending, deliverable interrupt. However, if there are no new interrupts pending, apic_update_ppr() does not issue the request. Thus, kvm_lapic_update_cr8_intercept() and vmx_update_cr8_intercept() are not called before VM entry, which results in a high, stale TPR_THRESHOLD. This is problematic due to the following sentence in 28.2.1.1 "VM-Execution Control Fields" in the SDM: The following check is performed if the “use TPR shadow” VM-execution control is 1 and the “virtualize APIC accesses” and “virtual-interrupt delivery” VM-execution controls are both 0: the value of bits 3:0 of the TPR threshold VM-execution control field should not be greater than the value of bits 7:4 of VTPR. This error condition is typically not observed when KVM runs on a bare metal system because modern processors support APICv, which enables virtual-interrupt delivery, and which KVM uses when possible. This causes the processor to no longer generate TPR-below-threshold exits and to no longer check TPR_THRESHOLD on entry. However, when running on older platforms, or under nested virtualization on a hypervisor that does not support virtual-interrupt delivery and enforces this check (like Hyper-V) this can cause a VM entry failure with hardware error 0x7, as seen in [1]. Call kvm_lapic_update_cr8_intercept() if apic_update_ppr() does not find a deliverable interrupt (and thus does not raise KVM_REQ_EVENT). Remove calls to kvm_lapic_update_cr8_intercept() on paths that end up in apic_update_ppr(), as they now become redundant. This ensures that any path that updates the guest's PPR also figures out if KVM needs to wait for a TPR change (using TPR_THRESHOLD on VMX or CR8 intercepts on SVM).
